[SOLVED] Asus Rog Strix Z590-I

[Jnovak27]

I just put together my new build (11900K, EVGA FTW3 3080 ti, Trident-Z 4000 MHz) and I’m trying to update my BIOS to the newest 1402 version from 0707.

I downloaded 1402 onto my Local C, renamed it using BIOSRenammer in the extracted folder, no problems there. When I go into the EZ Flash 3 Tool in the BIOS, the file shows up so I thought I was getting somewhere. I select it and it says “Do you want to read this file?” So I select “Yes” and it freezes. It won’t give me the “Do you really want to update BIOS?” prompt.

I thought maybe I was trying to jump to many versions so I tried just one update newer, 0903 I believe, and it still freezes on that first prompt. What can I do?!

Put it on a thumb drive. Rename it on the thumb drive. Point your BIOS update program to the directory on the thumb drive where the correctly named file resides. Done.

That did it no problem! Was able to skip straight to the newest version. Thanks so much!
