Title: 970A-DS3P rev 1.0 BIOS displaying incorrectly
Post by: Napalm on November 02, 2017, 11:35:57 pm

This is what my BIOS looks like.

I have been trying to find out how to flash the BIOS but I can't get it to work.

I have the latest BIOS file from the Gigabyte site on a flash drive formatted with exFat type plugged into a USB on the mobo.

I can't seem to enter q-flash neither by pressing F8 or END while booting. Pressing F8 from within the BIOS setup screen (what I can see of it at least) returns the message "Media not found. Insert media" or something like that.

I've tried downloading @BIOS but get a dll error which google doesn't help with and I don't know how to do it from DOS.

Help needed. Please. I'm almost at the tearing my hair out stage.

Windows 7 64
AMD FX 6300
8GB RAM
Radeon R9 380X

dxdiag says BIOS version is: hp v211w 2.00

Well don't I feel stupid. After actually looking in my pc I've realised that I don't even have that mobo.

Nevermind, I figured out what was going on anyway.
