Updating Bios MSI Gaming 5. How to update the Gigabyte BIOS motherboard

Hi friends! In today's article we are with you update the BIOS motherboard ASUS. It's a serious matter and refer to it, respectively. The process of updating the bios of any motherboard, although very simple, but any error in it will cost you expensive - to return the motherboard to life will have to be in the service center, since you probably do not have a special programmer. At the beginning of the article in a nutshell I will remind you what BIOS is.

How to update BIOS on the motherboard asus

BIOS is the most important element of the computer - a firmware recorded on the chip, which in turn is on the motherboard.

BIOS - provides basic OS access to computer hardware capabilities.. Simple words, Bios explains the operating system how to use a particular component of the computer.

Immediately after switching on the system unit, BIOSchecks all devices (POST procedure) and if any component is faulty, thenthrough a special speaker, a signal is distributed through which you can identify a faulty device. E.if everything is fine,BIOS will start searching the OS bootloader on connected drives and finding it transmits the relay wand operating system.

Now about not very good. The BIOS update process itself lasts a couple of minutes, but if at this time, electricity will be disconnected in your house, and your computer is not connected to a uninterruptible power source.(UPS), that firmware will be broken and you just do not turn on the computer. For recovery will have to seek a special programmer (BIOS recovery is a separate article).

I must say that manufacturers have provided full seriousness of the question and at the dawn of the production of motherboards completely excluded the possibility of updating or flashing BIOS, Only quite recently, Bios became equipped with a special program for its update. But still,the renewal of the bios of any motherboard is usually once in her life, and sometimes never.

The most important rule, if the work of the computer or laptop youit is quite suitable, I don't need to update anything, butif you still decidedupdate BIOS, then there must be weighty reasons. Here is some of them.

In your bios there are no new features. For example, no technology AHCI, and there is only outdated IDE, but you bought a new hard disk interfaceSATA III (6 Gbit / s) or generally solid SSD drive. Technology AHCI will allow your drive to use modern features and operating system on a new hard disk will work faster than in IDE. Wanted to the site of the manufacturer of your motherboard, you saw that a new update on the BIOS was published, you also learned that after updating your motherboard will supportAHCI! So, in this case, you can upgrade the BIOS without inflatable.

One of my friend disappeared on a computer, reinstalling Windows and drivers did not help, he decided that the built-in sound card burned down and bought a discrete, so the systemket was worked for 7 years, then the processor had to be replaced on this computer, it required BIOS updates, after updating the built-in The sound card has earned.

Another case. The client constantly rebooted the computer and reinstalling the operating system did not help, replaced everything that could be changed in the system, did not change the motherboard and the processor. We decided to finally install a new firmware on the BIOS and helped!

In the window that opens, I see the BIOS version - 2003

Now go to the official website of the manufacturer of our motherboard ASUSP8Z77-V Pro and choose "Drivers and utilities"

Select any operating system and reveal the "BIOS" item. We see that there is a update 2104 (a newer version than we have).

Click on the "Global" button And download the firmware.

Fresh firmware on BIOS (P8Z77-V-PRO-ASUS-2104.cap) downloaded in the archive. Remove it from the archive and copy toUSB-F. leshka. The firmware weighs 12 MB.

USB-F Leszka must necessarily be formatted into FAT32 file system and except for updating on the BIOS should not contain anything.

We reboot and enter BIOS.

In the initial BIOS window we see the old version of the firmware 2003.

Click "Additionally" And in more details of the BIOS.

(Click on the screenshot of the left mouse to increase)

We enter the "Service" tab

Choose the BIOS firmware utility - ASUS EZ FLASH 2 Or you may have ASUS EZ Flash 3.

In the ASUS EZ Flash 2 window we see our USB flash drive with firmware P8Z77-V-PRO-ASUS-2104.CAP.

Close on the file with the firmware with the left mouse button.

Click "OK"

Refresh BIOS?

The BIOS update in the Gigabyte motherboard is performed in case of malfunctions, to obtain support for new equipment and improving the efficiency of work, etc. Without a particular need to make the BIOS firmware should not be necessary if the computer works fine.

BIOS is a basic output system, represents a microcircuit with firmware that is checked and adjust the computer equipment, provide the operating system. On modern computers, the traditional BIOS interface is replaced with a modern UEFI interface. The BIOS microcircuit is located on the computer motherboard.

BIOS chip manufacturers periodically release updates in which errors are corrected, the BIOS code is improved for greater compatibility and efficiency. In some cases, it makes sense to update the BIOS firmware to troubleshoot or enhance compatibility with new devices connected to the computer.

It should be borne in mind that the BIOS update will lead to a warranty loss. Gigabyte company pays attention to that in this case, you are responsible for possible problems or for the failure of the equipment. If you do not decide to make BIOS firmware yourself, contact your service center specialists or computer workshop.

Pay attention to the required condition that needs to be followed when updating the BIOS: in the process of updating the BIOS, the power outage can lead to irreversible consequences. Therefore, take care of the uninterruptible power source that must be connected to the computer during the BIOS firmware to prevent an unexpected shutdown of electrical energy.

Why I performed the BIOS update on your computer

A few years ago, the motherboard was faced with my computer. This happened, as always unexpectedly, at the most inopportune moment. I had to make a forced upgrade on my PC, I had to replace almost all the computer equipment.

A certain configuration was collected, based on the Motherboard of the Gigabyte Taiwanese company from the details available in the computer store. The motherboard has BIOS from AMI - Ami Bios UEFI.

Gigabyte motherboards support Dualbios technology. On the motherboard there are two bios chips: the main and backup. In case of failure of the main chip, the BIOS is restored from the backup. In this case, the computer will continue to work. Otherwise, without reserve bios, it would be necessary to replace the motherboard, if there is no possibility to replace the chip in order.

One day, after turning on the computer, I saw a message: "The Main Bios Is Corrupted. The System Will Be Recovered from The Backup BIOS ... " This is a message translated into Russian: "The main BIOS is damaged. The system will be restored from the BIOS backup. Do not press the on and reboot buttons, wait a few minutes before the completion of the process. Update the main BIOS. "

BIOS restores quite quickly, the operating system was loaded and continued to work. But, with subsequent enable on the computer, the restoration of the BIOS from the backup occurred.

I realized that you need to update the BIOS firmware to the new version. For the right choice, pay attention to the audit of the chipset (I have - Rev.1.1), which can be seen directly on the motherboard or on the box from the motherboard.

With the help of specialized programs, for example, you can pre-obtain some information about the BIOS version installed on the computer. I had version F2, there is no longer on the official website. The latest available version of the BIOS for my motherboard is F8.

The official website of Gigabyte offers three options for updating the BIOS microcode of motherboards:

  • Updating the firmware directly from the BIOS using the Q-Flash utility (perhaps the safest way).
  • BIOS update using the @BIOS branded utility from Windows.
  • BIOS update with DOS utility that need to be written to external media.

The first two ways are the easiest applications. Beginner users, when using Q-Flash in the UEFI BIOS interface, may experience difficulties. Therefore, in this article we will look at the easiest way: using the @bios utility for the BIOS firmware in the Gigabyte motherboard.

BIOS update on the Gigabyte motherboard using the @BIOS utility

The @BIOS utility starts directly from the Windows operating system. The BIOS firmware to the new version occurs in graphical mode.

First you need to download @BIOS from the official site of Gigabyte. Unpack the archive, set the program to the computer.

When updating the BIOS, caution should be caution:

  • It is necessary to make sure that the BIOS version corresponds to the motherboard model.
  • Do not interrupt the BIOS flashing process.
  • Take care of the availability of the source of electrical power supply, which must be used to exclude electricity failure from the electrical network.
  • During the update, the Windows operating system must work consistently on the computer.
  • Close the program and connections.

To update the BIOS on the Gigabyte motherboard, follow these steps:

  1. In the "Start" menu, find the Gigabyte in the list of programs, click on it, run the @BIOS program. The utility window displays information about the motherboard model, version and manufacturer of the BIOS. On the right side of the @BIOS window are the buttons:
  • Update BIOS From Gigabyte Server - update BIOS from Gigabyte servers.
  • Update Bios From File - Update BIOS from the file previously downloaded to the computer.
  • Save Current BIOS TO File - Saving the current BIOS to the file.
  • About @BIOS - information about the program.
  1. Save the current BIOS to the file to your computer (just in case). Click on the "Save Current BIOS to File" button, select Save, Wait for the operation. If the BIOS is damaged, then it makes no sense in its preservation.
  2. Click on the Update Bios from Gigabyte Server button.

  1. In the window that opens, select the server from which you want to download a new firmware for BIOS. By default, it is proposed to select the closest server from the user.

  1. Confirm the selection to download the BIOS version. The window contains information about the model of the motherboard, the audit of the chipset, the BIOS version selected for the update. I note that for some reason the BIOS F7 version was shown in this window, the latest version F8 was installed on the computer.

  1. The process of downloading a file with a new BIOS firmware to a computer.

Gradually, over time, our computers begin to outrene a little and need to be updated. This is especially true of the BIOS system utility, which responds by almost the entire performance of the computer. This is where the question arises: how to update the system utility. The BIOS setting is the basis for building a system of performance of the entire computer, therefore it is worth regularly, at least once a month, interested in the release of updates for your system utility. Update the system utility is not so difficult, the main thing is to have patience and know where to take updates.

Update BIOS must be updated, as this will increase the safety and performance of your computer, can open up new features and increase the quality of the settings of the BIOS itself. But it is not necessary to hardly hurry, as this procedure is quite comprehensive and, with any error, can adversely affect the entire computer performance. But how to update BIOS? To do this, it is worth carefully studying the steps of the BIOS update so that you do not have any questions, and you knew exactly what to do.

Video Instructions for BISO Intrusion on the example of MSI Z87-G55

Necessary steps for firmware system utility:

  • step 1: Find out the motherboard model;
  • step 2: Find the updates yourself and download special programs;
  • step 3: C and correct errors.

Step 1: Find out the model of the motherboard

First of all, it is necessary to download a special program called Everest, allowing you to learn in detail about all the components of your computer. It will help to find out the exact name of the model of your motherboard. To do this, download the program itself and install it. After that, it is worth running Everest and use the scan function.

Setting up the program from the very beginning is installed in the desired format and mode, so it is better not to touch it. According to the scan results, you must go to the "System Board" menu and view the Footnotes "MSI System Board". It is there that the model of your motherboard will be indicated and.

Remember, Everest is a complex set of utilities that allow you to accurately determine the components of the computer as accurately as possible, you should not try to configure it for yourself and update any software using this utility. Always use only the "Scan" function and no more. After the operations proceeded, you can start searching for a new firmware for the system utility.

Step 2: Find the updates yourself and download special programs.

And now you can start searching for the necessary files, you need to do it on the Internet. Given that the BIOS belongs to your MSI family, it is worth visiting the official website of the company and try to find the necessary and current updates there. At first, check how to configure your browser. It is necessary that he allows you to download from the Internet and did not have an additional Adblock program, it may not let you on the MSI website, so it is better to turn it off for a while.

On the site in the search field you must specify the full name of your motherboard and run this process. If the site is given to you the desired update, then it is necessary to just download it, if the site did not give you the necessary information, then it is worth using the second way to get the necessary files that is to download the special utility to update.

The utility is called MSI Live Update 5, it allows you to find outdated motherboards and choose the necessary update to them. Use this opportunity if you have a modern model of the motherboard installed on your computer, since the program is intended for exceptional cases.

The program setting is simple, it is easy to figure it out, so you can proceed to search yourself. After installing MSI Live Update 5 and its startup, you need to use the SCAN function, which will check the computer equipment. After that, you will open a window with available updates, select the file that the digits exceed your version of the BIOS, and download it.

When requesting the place of saving, it is better to choose the desktop and not use the standard saving, as it saves the files deep in the system, and then it will be difficult to find them. The file is an archive to unpack. The file setting is not required, the installation process is in automatic mode.

Step 4: Update BIOS and fix the error of the A-disk

Now you have everything to answer the question: what needs to be done to update the BIOS based on MSI? True, the last element remained - this is the installation itself. It has two options: You can record files for flash drive and update the system utility through the BIOS itself, and you can try to do it from the desktop. It is best to use the second option.

Start the installation file and wait for its end. Setup may be required solely to resolve this operation, especially if you have Windows 7. But there you only need to agree and resolve the automatic firmware process. When the installation is completed, the computer must reboot. And after that, the system utility will be stitched.

A disk error is a problem that the BIOS setting hides. It is the setting and will solve it. And to be more accurate, you need to go to the "BIOS Setup" menu, go to Standard CMOS Features and in Floppy Driver A to set the NOT Installed value.

Now you know how to update the system utility on your computer. It is as easy as to update the driver or program, the main thing is not to hurry and carefully fulfill the steps above.

The functionality and the BIOS interface is obtained at least some serious changes are quite rare, so it is not necessary to update it regularly. However, if you have gathered a modern computer, but the MSI motherboard has an outdated version, it is recommended to think about its update. The information that will be set out further is relevant only for MSI motherboards.

Depending on how you decide to make an update, you will have to download or a special Windows utility, or the firmware files.

If you decide to update from the Utilities built into the BIOS or DOS rows, then you will need an archive with installation files. In the case of a utility that goes under Windows, downloading installation files may not be needed in advance, since the utility functionality has the ability to download everything you need from MSI servers (depending on the selected installation type).

It is recommended to use standard BIOS update installation methods - built into it utilities or DOS string. Update via the operating system interface is dangerous in the event that in the event of any bug there is a risk of suspension of the process, which may entail serious consequences up to the failure of the PC.

Step 1: Preparatory

If you decide to use standard methods, you need to make appropriate training. First you need to find out information about the BIOS version, its developer and the model of your Matpal. All this is necessary that you can download the correct version of the BIOS for your PC and make a backup already existing.

To do this, you can use both the built-in Windows and third-party software. In this case, the second option will be more convenient, so the further step-by-step instruction is considered on the example of the AIDA64 program. It has a convenient interface in Russian and a large set of functions, but at the same time (although there is a demo period). The instruction looks like this:


Now download all files to update the BIOS from the MSI official website using this manual:


To install the installation, the standard method must prepare a USB drive or CD / DVD. Make a media formatting into the file system FAT32. and cross the BIOS installation files from the downloaded archive. See that elements with extensions are present among the files. Bio. and ROM. Without them, the update will be impossible.

Stage 2: flashing

At this stage, consider the standard flashing method using the utility built into the BIOS. This method is good because it is suitable for all devices from MSI and does not require any additional work except those considered above. Immediately after you drop all files on the USB flash drive, you can proceed directly to the update:


Method 2: Update from Windows

If you are not too an experienced PC user, you can try to update through a special utility for Windows. This method is suitable exclusively for users of stationary computers with MSI system boards. If you have a laptop, it is strongly recommended to refrain from this method, as it can cause failures in its work. It is noteworthy that the utility is also suitable for creating a bootable flash drive to upgrade through the DOS string. However, software is only suitable for updating via the Internet.

Instructions for working with the MSI Live Update utility looks like this:


Method 3: Through the DOS string

This method is somewhat confusing, as it implies the creation of a special bootable flash drive under DOS and work in this interface. Inexperienced users, the update on this method is categorically not recommended.

To create a flash drive, you will need the MSI Live Update utility from the previous method. In this case, the program also itself downloads all the necessary files from the official servers. Next actions are:


Now you have to work in the DOS interface. To enter and make everything right, it is recommended to use this step-by-step instruction:


The BIOS update on computers / MSI laptops is not so difficult, moreover, a variety of ways are presented here, thanks to which you can choose the most optimal option for yourself.

Many users during the operation of modern computers face desire, and often the need to update the BIOS motherboard. This procedure in many cases allows you to eliminate the problems associated with the incompatibility of component PCs, minimize the number of critical errors, and in general, to derive the stability of the system to a higher level.

Today we will talk about BIOS motherboards of one of the most famous manufacturers - ASUS. Rather, not about the firmware itself, but about the methods of its update. Using the correct approach, it may even be even an inexperienced user. The following describes in detail several existing methods and methods for solving this problem developed by the ASUS programmers. Clearly following step-by-step instructions, you can almost with a 100% probability of being confident that the process will be completed by success, and the risk of equipment breakdowns from incorrect actions is minimized.

Stages of update

To date, there are several ways to update the microprogram of the basic I / O of the ASUS motherboard. The variety of methods is caused by a huge model range of products and a serious time stay of the company in the market. Asus engineers are constantly improving the software required for the work of their own hardware solutions, creating all the more reliable and easy utilities for use.

Usually the update process consists of several stages:

  • Accurate definition of motherboard model
  • Receipt of the update file.
  • Select the method and update method.
  • Directly update procedure.

Definition of the motherboard model

It would seem that a trifling, but in reality an important moment. The user must clearly know the equipment model that will have to work. Given the large assortment of the mat. Boards, it is necessary to understand that each of the models differs from another entire number of parameters and the introduction, for example, the settings required for the performance of one solution can lead to unstable work and even failure of another representative of the model range. When working with BIOS on the above-described nuance, special attention should be paid.

The definition of the model can be carried out in many ways. This information is mandatory:


Also, the model can be clarified using the Windows command line:
Team: WMIC Baseboard Get Product


or third-party software (on the screenshot - the AIDA64 utility):

Getting BIOS Update File

After the model is found out, you can proceed to the search and receipt of the files required for the firmware, as well as the software by which the procedure is carried out.

Important remark! All the necessary files must be downloaded exclusively from the site of the ASUS manufacturer! The use of firmware and methods that are obtained from third-party resources is unacceptable!

Selecting the update method, download utilities

It cannot be said that the choice of a method for updating the basic I / O toal-output system Asus completely depends on the user's preferences. Here, everything is dictated by the model of the updated device and the manufacturer's attached capabilities. Most motherboards allow you to produce a UPDATE BIOS in several ways, but there are also such where the effective method is only one.

In general, the methodology of the UPDATE BIOS procedure can be divided into two groups of methods:

  1. Using programs developed for Windows and / or DOS environments:
  • ASUS EZUPDATE is a component of the comprehensive SUITE software solution recommended by the manufacturer to maintain components of the asus;
  • WinFlash (solution designed to a greater extent for laptops and monoblocks is not recommended for use due to the huge number of negative feedback);
  • AFUDOS UTILITY, BUPDATER and some other outdated DOS utilities.
  • With the use of funds integrated by the manufacturer in the Motherboard firmware:
    • Easy Flash Utility (applied for old models);
    • Ezflash tool;
    • USB BIOS FLASHBACK.

    Many professionals with extensive experience in the field of maintenance and repair of computer equipment do not recommend updating Bios motherboards using Windows-utilities. A very controversial statement probably based on bitter experience in using this method when it appears more than 10 years ago (then, indeed, some difficulties were observed with the stability of such solutions and problems arose in the process of using utilities). It is worth noting that over the years of its development, Windows utilities, in any case, issued by the famous manufacturers, reached a high level of reliability. These tools are repeatedly tested for performance and stability and can be recommended for use by regular users.

    It is likely that if the choice is already on the Motherboard ASUS, the trust produced to be distributed to its maintenance recommendations. In other words, if on the download page for the selected version of the OS there is a certain utility, and should be used. This approach to some extent facilitates the choice of the method, but the final decision is definitely over the user.

    Thus, if a Windows utility is selected as a tool, download it from the manufacturer's site, then install. Installation procedure is standard.

    If this is a DOS program, download and unpack the data into a separate folder, also prepare any USB flash drive. In addition, the flash drive may be needed when updating the BIOS using the tools integrated into the firmware by the manufacturer, but no additional software is needed.

    Preparation Completed, go to the UPDATE BIOS process. The process of operation of each method and the necessary user actions are written below. In addition, the main advantages of each method under consideration are listed.

    Update procedure

    Method 1: ASUS UPDATE utility (as part of the AI \u200b\u200bSuite II software package)

    In general, the advantage of ASUS UPDATE in front of other methods can be considered almost complete process automation. In addition, EzUpdate is part of the AI \u200b\u200bSuite software package, with which the motherboard is maintained as a whole, in particular the regular check of new versions of the drivers, receiving information about current parameters, "overclocking" components, etc.


    Method 2: ASUS EZ UPDATE 3 utility (as part of the AI \u200b\u200bSuite III software package)

    EZ UPDATE 3 is the latest version of the Windows utility from Asus from those designed to automatically update Drivers and BIOS firmware. In general, work with the program is similar to the application of the previous solution. Only some interface differences in versions are noticeable to the user.

    So, step by step use EZ UPDATE 3:

    1. Download from the official site and install the AI \u200b\u200bSuite III software package.
    2. The installation procedure is standard, we will not stop in detail at this moment, but still let's see the screenshots of the process.

      Installing user-selected components EZ UPDATE 3:

      Completion of the Installation:

    3. Run AI Suite III
    4. And we see the modern interface of the software package.

    5. On the left we find a button by pressing the panel with the list of installed components.
    6. Select section "EZ UPDATE".
    7. Click on the button with the image of three points and specify the path to the BIOS update file.
    8. After making sure the data is made correctly, click on the button "Update".
    9. In the window that appears, click on the same button again.
    10. I confirm receipt of information that everything went to successfully pressing the button "OK".
    11. Agree to the reboot - button "OK".
    12. After the PC reboots, observe the BIOS interface with the process indicator. Next - another reboot and procedure can be considered the terminal. It remains only to enter the BIOS (key "F1" On the keyboard) and re-configure the system.

    Additionally. The manufacturer provided in EZ UPDATE 3 the ability to update the BIOS directly via the Internet, without pre-downloading the update from the manufacturer's website. This method is not described here in detail due to its imperfection, according to the author of the article. To start checking for new versions you need to click "Check now"and then button "To plug":

    The situation was repeatedly observed when a new version is present on the download page, and its utility "does not find" and informs the user that the service is not required:

    Method 3: ASUS EZ Flash 2

    This method is quite popular among users. For its implementation, it does not require an installed operating system and even the presence of a hard disk in the PC. (However, the fully working computer with the operating system is still needed - to download the file and copy it to the USB flash drive.) In addition to other things - EZ Flash 2 is a fairly reliable solution that developed from ASUS multi-year practice to embed updates to the BIOS firmware.


    Method 4: EZ Flash 3

    And again it will be about the most advanced version of software. EZ Flash 3 is characterized by the same advantages and disadvantages as the previous versions, the list of the necessary procedure has also changed. The interface has become a more informative and pleasant eye, but it cannot be called a global change in the method, in general, the steps are the same as in the previous version:


    Method 5: USB BIOS FlashBack

    The official website of the company Asus is argued that the company's branded technology - USB BIOS FlashBack - is the most convenient solution for update BIOS motherboard. In many ways, this statement is true - the use of technology allows you to easily produce UPDATE BIOS and the restoration of the firmware. There is a built-in protection against failures. The process does not require the processor and memory modules installed on the motherboard. Only the power supply is required, the motherboard itself and the flash drive containing the BIOS file.

    A very relevant offer when installing a new processor, not supported by the current version of the firmware BIOS Mat. Payment. The only disadvantage of the USB BIOS Flashback from Asus can be considered the fact that this technology is equipped to today a very limited number of proposals from the premium segment (for example, the Motherboard of the Republic of Republic of Gamers).

    So the process itself:


    Method 6: AFUDOS and BUPDATER

    When it comes to updating the BIOS, it is impossible not to mention the rather old firmware methods - with the help of DOS utilities. This method is sometimes the only apparent mate for old models. Boards, and can also be recommended for use in troubleshooting and unavailability of other methods.

    AFUDOS and BUPDATER products are very similar in essence. In fact, BUPDATER is a more modern version of the AFUDOS utility.

    To use the method, we need the BIOS firmware, the utility itself and the MS-DOS boot flash drive. There are many ways to make a flash drive, we will not stop in detail on them, we will not make it easier to do it with the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool.

    The steps required for the BIOS firmware using AFUDOS and BUPDATER:

    1. We place the firmware and utility files (afudos.exe or bupdater.exe) in the root of the boot USB-Flash.
    2. Loading from the flash drive (in most cases it is necessary to press the key "F8" On the keyboard while loading the system and select USB FlashDrive from the list of devices that are possible).
    3. Upon completion of the download on the screen will display the inscription "C: \\ & GT";. Next, enter the command to start the BIOS firmware:
    • in case of use of AFUDOS:
      AFUDOS /XXXXX.ROM.
    • when using BUPDATER:
      BUPDATER /XXXXX.CAP or BUPDATER /XXXXX.ROM

      *In both cases Xxxxx - This is the name of the firmware file.

  • Press key "ENTER" on keyboard.
  • We wait for the end of the process and reboot PC.
  • Conclusion

    In conclusion, it can be said that despite the large variety of methods, the UPDATE BIOS of Motherboard ASUS is not an excessive task even for a beginner.
    In general, the above-described is a useful and recommended procedure that allows you to promptly prevent the appearance of critical errors and other problems with the computer. Service equipment regularly and enjoy the stable operation of the computer!

    Remember, the right approach, deliberate actions and following instructions will necessarily lead to the success of the event!

      Hello everyone. I put two years ago by the Aisuite II program. The computer has become really slowed down when loading and in operation. I have an SSD disk for Operation and, at that time, a powerful computer. I had to write in support asus and explaining the situation. They sent me without unnecessary conversations a program for pure removal of Aisuite II. Removed it and everything was normal.
      I have a P8Z77-V Pro and WIN7PRO 6BIT. There is a permanent conflict between the ASUS motherboard and the ASUS GeForce GTX 680 video card. Everything has already tried. From hopelessness decided to update the BIOS. But I think that before updating - BIOS video cards or motherboard?
      Your article has a couple of questions. First - Did you not offer the program to update from the ASUS that before updating the bios first save the current version just in case? It seems I used to read that such an opportunity is. But at your photo I did not see this item.
      The second is if the new "updated" BIOS does not solve my problems, then how to return to the "Factory" primary bios. It seems on the board itself there is a recovery button. You can find out the detailed instructions where this button to look for and how to use this button. It would be a good finality of your useful instruction.
