From GIGABYTE's website, download the latest compressed BIOS update file that matches your motherboard
model.
2.
Uncompress the downloaded BIOS file, save it to your USB flash drive, and rename it to
GIGABYTE.bin
.
Note: The USB flash drive must use the FAT32/16 file system and it must be a USB 2.0 flash drive.
3.
Insert the USB flash drive into the white USB port on the back panel.
B. Using Q-Flash Plus
If both the main and backup BIOS fail during system boot, wait for 15-20 seconds, the system will automatically
search and match the BIOS file in the USB flash drive on the white USB port. The FBIOS_LED will flash when
the BIOS matching and flashing activities start.
Wait for 2-3 minutes and the FBIOS_LED will stop flashing when the main BIOS flashing is complete.
After the main BIOS is flashed, the system will reboot automatically and then DualBIOS
™
will
continue to update the backup BIOS. After completion, the system will reboot again and boot from
the main BIOS for normal operation.
