The issue for you remains... you can't get into the BIOS. How are you going to flash using QFLASH?
By all means please try it, if you can figure out how to get into QFLASH. There is another possible scenario, but I can't say what might happen. Boot into windows BIOS2, change switches to BIOS1, perform @BIOS flash, and if you're lucky, the system will flash BIOS1. Big "if" here.
But again, considerable risk. If you can send the link to this page/article you referenced, I'd appreciate it.
The lack of clear documentation is what we are up against here.

Was hoping I can flash this from DOS. Not sure if that is possible with it being a UEFI Bios?
Here is the link to the article: Doesn't mention that it works for my motherboard, but then it doesn't warn me that it wont work with motherboards other than the ones listed.

Thanks for the link. Have no idea if AWDFLASH will work from bootable USB and your board. Again, no documentation.
According to the referenced article, the switches can be used in QFLASH to flash BIOS1 or BIOS2. Don't know if this works in DOS.
Flashing should reset the BIOS to defaults, getting you out of your FastBoot dilemma. Will appreciate knowing the outcome.

Will have a go at reflashing in a couple of days. Got a few items that I need to get finishes first, just in case I end up without a working PC. Going to email Gigabyte in the meantime with a couple of questions. Will let you know the outcome.
shadowsports:
Any updates. Outcome?

Hi shadowsports. Thanks for your continued interest in my bios problem. No update yet. Taken a bit longer to get my work completed.
Got a replacement motherboard in my Amazon basket just in case things don't work out and I need to replace the motherboard. Will post the outcome on here whichever way it goes.
