4-1-3 Flash BIOS Method Introduction

Method 1 : Q-Flash

TM

Utility

Q-Flash

TM

is a BIOS flash utility embedded in Flash ROM. With this utility,

users only have to stay in the BIOS menu when they want to update
BIOS. Q-Flash

TM

allows users to flash BIOS without any utility in

DOS or Windows. Using Q-Flash

TM

indicates no more fooling around with any complicated instructions

and operating system since it is in the BIOS menu.

Please note that because updating BIOS has potential risk, please do it with caution!! We are
sorry that Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd is not responsible for damages of system because of
incorrect manipulation of updating BIOS to avoid any claims from end-users.

Before You Begin:

TM

utility, please follow the steps below first.

1. Download the latest BIOS for your motherboard from Gigabyte's website.
2. Extract the BIOS file downloaded and save the BIOS file (the one with model name.Fxx. For

example, 8KNXPU.Fba) to a floppy disk.

3. Reboot your PC and press

Del

to enter BIOS menu.

The BIOS upgrading guides below are separated into two parts.
If your motherboard has dual-BIOS, please refer to

Utility on Dual BIOS Motherboards.

Some of Gigabyte motherboards are equipped with dual BIOS. In the BIOS menu of the motherboards
supporting Q-Flash and Dual BIOS, the Q-Flash utility and Dual BIOS utility are combined in the same
screen. This section only deals with how to use Q-Flash utility.

In the following sections, we take GA-8KNXP Ultra as the example to guide you how to flash BIOS
from an older version to the latest version. For example, from Fa3 to Fba.

Intel i875P AGPset BIOS for 8KNXP Ultra Fa3
