You can download the bios and prep the USB on a different computer for sure.

Sorry, I misread your message. Because you have an incompatible CPU you won't be able to get into the BIOS. Unless you have BIOS flashback on your motherboard, you will be unable to update it without a compatible CPU. I have a video on how to do flashback if your motherboard supports it.

Did this happen to you as well?

It's always important to know what version of software you are on before upgrading so that you can find out what is changing from your current version to the one you're updating to.
