Hi guys,
i just wanted to highlight this for other whom might end up in my situation and also ask some question myself.
Yesterday i bought Windows 8 and i though i check if there are any updates to my Bios and i say several updates actually.
i was at F7 and there were F8,F9, F10 and a new U1c which supported UEFI BIOS. I was curious to test this so i started to use the "atBIOS" windows tools to upgrade my bios. Up to F10 it went fine but no matter what i did (from server or local file) i could not flash U1C. I got the message i'm using the wrong version or something.
I even tried the Qflash and put the file on USB stick with an error message that the file is wrong.
So after lot of testing i decided to use a bootable USB stick. Once i had a working bootable USB stick i finally managed to flash the U1C through DOS. Using this command and file--> FLASHEFI Z68XUD4.U1C
So my question is why couldnt i flash using QFlash ? or even the windows tools?
I'm sure i use the correct file and as mentioned it went fine using bootable usb stick. I'm not running windows 8 on top so its working fine and all but i'm just puzzled about the whole case. Next time i'm not sure if it will work using windows tool for one...
Hope someone can clarify this....
