Title: Where are the Win 7 64 bit BIOS updates?
Post by: Lowpro on December 19, 2012, 05:18:20 pm

So after going through Gigabyte's website I tried to get the F16 BIOS update however it's not for Win 7 64 bit (or so says the installer).  When I try to run it it just says that the update is not compatible with Win 7 64 bit.

Thanks if anyone can help!

Hi htere,

BIOS updates are not OS dependant so are neither 32 or 64 bit.

To update the BIOS use either QFlash which you run through BIOS, or install and use the @BIOS software.

Personally, I would recommend using the QFlash utility and if you're not sure how to do this then check the FAQ here: http://forum.giga-byte.co.uk/index.php/topic,2441.msg13929.html#msg13929
