Hi

Firstly I don't believe that you are from Antarctica!  ;D

I would advise you to not use the @BIOS program as it can brick your motherboard. It is far safer to use the QFlash utility that is not running on top of the OS. It is available from the BIOS itself. You just need your downloaded file on a USB stick.
