Can't flash to the F20 BIOS

Can't flash to the F20 BIOS
« on: April 05, 2017, 06:11:42 pm »
Hello, I have the Z170X Gaming GT with the F6 BIOS. This morning I tried updating the BIOS to F20, but couldn't do it. I tried using @BIOS several times and never worked. I turned off all of my anti-malware and anti-virus protection and closed all programs too. I did update @BIOS before I started.  Don't understand the problem, I ungraded to F6 with no issues.  Any ideas/help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Hi there,

not sure why you can't get @BIOS to update for you but....

on a personal note, I would strongly recommend against using @BIOS and do any BIOS updates using the QFlash utility in BIOS.

If you are not sure how to update using the QFlash utility check out the FAQ here: http://forum.giga-byte.co.uk/index.php?topic=2441.0
Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.
