Option 1 - can't do this option since I can't find where to download my B450M AORUS ELITE motherboard update Option 2 - same as option 1 Option 3 - Update from the server doesn't work on all servers AND update from file won't work because I don't know where to get the file
damn first bios i have ever updated and went perfect! hopefully this fixed the issue i was having when half my ram was unusable and the splash screen saying novatech instead of gigabyte
Just wanted to say thank you for the quick tutorial I did indeed update my system BIOS and I am now able to boot all my current RAM sticks without the machine failing to boot, current running them on a mem-test lets hope it passes and I can have all 32GB working.
The software gives me weird reports like "This Driver cannot be run" or something like that in multiple pop up windows (I'll update tomorrow on what it actually said). But it ran fine, apart from the automatic search not listing ANYTHING on the model list... Manually downloading and setting the program to update worked just fine. Glad to have an update after 4 agonizing years xD
Very comfortable with @Bios APP , do it step for step like he shows , worked 100% for me. BIOS Files stored (unzipped) at SSD . Motherboard: Z590 Aorus Elite . Thumbs up. PS: SSD File system: NTFS
Thank you Q-flash+ GA-AX370-Gaming K7 with AMD 5 2600x and getting no BIOS POST. replaced EVERYTHING and got the same issue again. RU-vidd and found this.
You put the weird format version file on a FAT32 usb. By weird format version file I mean for example, I have Gigabyte B360M-D2V and my last version of BIOS is F12a and the bios file's name is B360MD2V.12a I hope this can help you.
@@arnobchowdhury9641 Same thing it would not pick up my usb thumb drive and then i was reading the comments and i was reading what you said tried it and now its working Thanks Boss, why did he not mention that in the video? and if he did i didnt hear it, Thanks again
He put the F7 file. Of course not much discussion about which motherboard it is. You can tell only because it shows the board along with the BIOS update. I have a different board and my newest available is F5. So again, not really much help.
came back to say it worked the second time i tried @bios it didnt freeze, I was hesitant to retry the method because of the sensitivity of a Bios Install, but it did work the second time.

Will Q-Flash still work if the cpu isn't supported by the current bios? I have a Ryzen 5 3400G cpu that needs the most recent bios on my DS3H WiFi board. I'm still waiting on my ram to show up so I haven't tried to boot it up yet, but the board didn't have the "Ryzen 3000 ready" sticker on it, just the 2000 so I assume I'll need the update.
I have a GA z170x-ud3 ultra durable i bought in in 2015. work very well my bios version is the original F2 since then many more updates. I am insecure to update my bios to the most rescent ones what if i start having problems? do you have any advise to give me? would i see a big difference of performance with this mother board? thank you for your feedback
Hi, thank u for the explaining. I have gigabyte z490 vision d with Bios version F6, I wanna update to the newest version . I went to the Gigabyte website and I found 4 versions which is 4, 5 , 7 & 20 now I don't know should I update to the last version or start from version 7. Thanks
Muito informativo. Preciso atualizar o BIOS da placa GA-Z77X-D3H ver1.1. Seria o mesmo procedimento? Qual seria o melhor? Usando o @BIOS ou via DOS? THX very much. I need update my BIOS of the MOBO GA-Z77X-D3H ver1.1. Will be the same procedure? What the best for? I using the @BIOS or in the DOS system? Nice instructions!
I found out that flashing the BIOS through the system is the most dangerous one. You can encounter any kernel panic and interrupt it. If you don't have an EEPROM programmer, you may have a hard time recovering it. Some boards may have more BIOS chips as a last resort, or the bootloader asking to insert a USB with a binary file to reflash itself.
Question. Let's say there's a power outage during q-flash, can I then still use q-flash+ to unbrick the mobo? (Relates to single bios board, such as x570 Aorus Elite)
I use a gigabyte AB-350M D3V motherboard with AM4 socket and a ryzen 3 2200g chooser,however whenever I update my bios it gives the F22 version but on the site there is also a F23d version,but it does not get update that way plus when I try doing it with the file method,it tells cannot read file......so what should I do??
Guys if you have any problems flashing your MB bios, Try to remove cmos battery for like 5 minutes. Also unplug power cord from your power supply and press power button for few seconds. Then put battery back. Bios should be updated with no problems now. Took me a while to figure out. The system became unstable after unsuccessful flashing.
Hello there Gigabyte! So I am currently interested in purchasing the Z170X Gaming 7 motherboard (rev 1.0) There does not seem to be a white USB connector on the I/O panel? Please help! Haha I am going to put an i7-7700K processor in there but I need to update the BIOS to F20 to do so. Without the white USB port, is it still possible to perform the the Q-Flash+ method? Thank you! Any and all advice is appreciated!
im having the EXACT same issue, if u figured out what to do i'd love to know, cuz the ports dont even look the same as what he shows in his video. Pretty frustrating... nobody i know has a 6th gen cpu i can borrow to do the bios update either D: < im hoping to update the bios so i can use my i5-7500 that i bought x.x
@Dave Bell ark.intel.com/products/codename/37572/Skylake if i bought the cheapest skylake processor on that page... is that a gen 6 processor? and would that also help me update my bios to use my gen7 cpu? o-o... if so u might hav solved my problem :O
My model GA-Z77P-D3 rev1.1 mobo hasnt had a bios update listed on Gigabytes support page since 2012. I was wondering if theres an update I can use to get this mobo more up to date?
Most cases the last update is enough however i found that on the motherboard i'm getting (msi b450 gaming plus) i need to update it once before updating it to the most recent bios
I have an ax370m-ds3h, and my new CPU needs the motherboard to update the BIOS. Thus, the monitor has no signal. Is it possible to insert a USB stick with the BIOS update regardless?
Ok I have a old gigabyte GA H55M S2V motherboard I have bios F2. Version. I would like to install 16 gig 1600 ram on this board using two 8 gig sticks. I can not get this ram to work on the F2 version so I was told to update it to F4. Could I get specific help with this thanx
May I update a B250M Gaming 3 BIOS on version F1 direct to F6 or do I have to update to F2->F3->F4->F5 first? Eu posso atualizar a BIOS de uma B250 Gaming 3 na versão F1 diretamente para a F6 ou eu tenho que atualizar primeiro para a F2->F3->F4->F5?
Hi. What if i dont have white USB? I have GIGABYTE GA-H110M-DS2 DDR4Motherboard and i cant get it in my cpu bcs the processor is Coffee lake ,and the bios is not good with it. What to do?
Hi whenever I download the newest bios update (f10) for my AB350-Gaming 3 it's not in a .exe file, but a compressed file. How or where do I get the .exe file?
Can the Gaming 7 support 6 GPUs ? I currently have 5 and I'm mining Zcash. When I install a 6th card it's just stuck in a boot loop on start up. I tried updating BIOS but I don't know if I did it correctly. Do I have to extract the Zip first or leave is as a Zip. I extracted it first. Thanks for any help
im building a new pc with kaby lake on h110m-gaming 3, since i need to update the bios on the first boot up! do i need to use your method update bios first then install window 10 later?
Any way to trigger Q-Flash on a GIGABYTE B450M S2H that doesn't post? It has no Q-Flash + button or a white USB port and no way to see what's on the screen. The power button turns the CPU fan on, but holding it doesn't turn the system off. The only way is to cut the power. I've tried removing the battery and waiting, jumping the CMOS clear, holding power and reset while booting and even holding bios pins 1 and 6 while booting but nothing changes.
