Hi,

Unless you have a CPU that is supported by the F2 BIOS you won't be able to update your BIOS.

The only thing I can suggest would be to take the Motherboard back to where you bought it and ask them if they can Update the BIOS for you.

Unless you know someone with an older processor you can borrow.
