Title: GA-Z170X-UD3 can't update bios, IGP problem.
Post by: mroizo on September 06, 2017, 04:00:39 pm

Hello,

I got F6 bios.
From App center and @BIOS(windows 10 64) when i try to Update from Server i get Warning The remote server returned and error: (500) Syntax error, command unrecognized. I tried with no software firewall and also i checked the logs in my router with no result.
If i try Update from File i get ERROR Update BIOS Failed.

I also tried Q FLASH from BIOS and the version didn't change.




Sometimes when i power on the system and afterwards i power on the monitor Asus VG248 the monitor makes a weird random loud noise and the screen is like an old tv with no reception and i have to poweroff the system in order to fix this.The cable is an ibra 1.4 hdmi.

Hello,

Can you use Qflash and try version F22?

Neither version 20 or 22 works .   :(

I wonder what improvements have been made in versions F7-F19.

Is there any link at Gigabyte site with the checksum of the bios files ?

The intel bios guard  must be disabled while upgrading ?

With the Gigabyte bios files, no as these should be automatically allowed to run.

But worth trying it, the option is meant to protect from malware / viruses altering the BIOS.

How can i contact Gigabyte ?

How can i be sure that the bios that i downloaded is from Gigabyte and it is not altered by a third party ?

My older motherboard was Gigabyte and i was very happy with the product, with UEFI bios i feel like a beta tester.

They have a support ticket system,
http://esupport.gigabyte.com/Login/Index?ReturnUrl=%2f

If the download link is on their website, it is likely to be genuine.

I did a load optimized defaults and the bios finally upgraded!

Also i figure how to login to the support ticket system, there is no notification or requirement, the password needs to be weak with simple words and numbers, if you enter a strong password during registration it will be accepted but you wont be able to login.There is always the password recovery for a working weak password.

Somebody might find useful these information.
