To update your BIOS check the FAQ here: http://forum.giga-byte.co.uk/index.php?topic=2441.0
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.

Hello,

Is your PC stable? Assuming it is, all you need to do is copy the F6 file to a flash drive.
Enter your BIOS and choose the Q-flash option.
Then just locate the file and it will do the rest.
