update from bios id 10 to 17 (latest)

The manual says I must use this syntax for updateing bios:
awdflash se6_sw.bin /cc /cd /cp /py /sn /cks /r_

But the IS7G_17.TXT (readme file embedded with the bios update file) file
says:
Run "runme.bat"

************************************************** ********
listings below show contains in runme.bat and abitfae.bat

RUNME.BAT:
@echo off
cls
ECHO !-------------------------------------------------!
ECHO ! !
ECHO !Please DO NOT run this batch file under Windows! !
ECHO ! !
ECHO !-------------------------------------------------!
pause
call abitfae.bat is7g_17.bin

ABITFAE.BAT
@ECHO OFF
cls
ECHO Please make sure of the following:
ECHO 1) You have made a CLEAN boot from your floopy disk,
ECHO i.e. NO autoexec.bat and config.sys files are loaded.
ECHO 2) The BIOS file you are trying to upgrade is correct
ECHO for your board, otherwise you will get the unknown failure.
IF "%1"=="" GOTO Error_3
ECHO !----------------------------------------------!
ECHO ! !
ECHO !Be sure the current PC system is pure without !
ECHO !any resident progarm. !
ECHO ! !
ECHO !----------------------------------------------!
pause
cls
IF NOT EXIST AWDFLASH.EXE GOTO Error_1
IF NOT EXIST %1 GOTO Error_2
ECHO !----------------------------------------------!
ECHO ! !
ECHO ! !Be sure you are ready to update the BIOS! !
ECHO ! !
ECHO !----------------------------------------------!
pause
AWDFLASH.EXE %1 /py /sn /cd /cp /cc
goto End

:Error_1
ECHO No AWDFLASH.EXE!!! or you may have not execute the .EXE file to be a
..BIN file yet.
ECHO Flash Failure !!!
goto End

:Error_2
ECHO No %1 file or you may have not execute the .EXE file to be a .BIN file
yet.
ECHO !!! Flash Failure !!!
goto End

:Error_3
ECHO Command error: No parameters
goto End
:End

Is it safe to just use the runme.bat or is it best to do what the manaul
says?

One other thing IS7G_17.TXT also says that after updateing bios I have to
pull off
the power cord and then clear the CMOS data via jumper before restarting
system
why should I do that???

I will do update from plain dos
