Hi,

I would not recommend using @BIOS for updating.
It is much better to use the QFlash Utility and if you want more details on  how to update BIOS, check out our FAQ here: http://forum.giga-byte.co.uk/index.php/topic,2441.0.html

You can download the latest BIOS for your Motherboard here: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3311&dl=1#dl
Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.

I would advise against using @BIOS anyway. It is to unreliable and you are likely to end up with a doorstop if you are not lucky. Use QFlash instead.

Thanks guys :) But isn´t strange that the F8 don´t show up at all!? Only the old F6 is visible.

To be honest I'm not certain how @BIOS works these days but I'm not surprised that it is only finding the F6. Just another reason not to use it in my opinion!
