Awdflash.exe - Award Flasher (DOS based)

Recommended by Wim's BIOS... BIOS Agent scan: Upgrade your BIOS! Driver Agent scan: Instant Access to 116,215 Device Drivers Updates!

Award Software Inc. started working on the Award Flasher in 1993. The first versions only supported the Intel 28F010 flash chips. During that time almost all motherboards didn't feature flashable BIOS chips. In 1994/1995, with the availability of Awdflash 5.x, the core BIOS release of Award BIOS Elite v4.50PG and flash chips on motherboards, the tool became a lot more used.

All these Award Flasher versions are DOS based and can't be run from Windows or other operating systems. Award also released Windows based flashers (Award Winflash). You can find these below.
