Hi,

I would like to update my Bios to 5007 before buying a Ryzen 7 3700X.

I tried 2 times with EZ Update 3 to update the Bios,
First time with an USB Key, second via the Internet option.

Every time, bios update stops at around 50% and computer restarts.
I get no error message or any infos why it stops.
MB stays in 4204 version.

My current CPU is a Ryzen 5 1600.

Any idea what the problem is ?

Thanks for your help.

Thank you for your suggestions.

I was able to update to Version 4602.

I tried Version 4804 and Version 5007 next but it stopped again at 50%.

I don't know why I can't update to the last two bios version.

Thank you if you have any idea...

Hey, I have that MB. It came with first BIOS (0222) and I successfully updated to 4088 and every BIOS since then.
As a matter of routine I always reset BIOS all the way, by contacts and by removing battery.
BIOS, in this case PRIME-X470-PRO-ASUS-5007.CAP place in USB stick formatted to Fat32. It never failed yet.
You could also try to use BRenamerl.exe to rename BIOS file to "Px470p.cap".
BTW, what do you mean by Eazy update 3 ?? The program fro Aisuite 3 ??
It says in Asus BIOS page only EZ Flash in BIOS should be used for 4804 and up.
Version 4804 2019/06/0414.48 MBytes
PRIME-X470-PRO-BIOS-4804
Update AGESA for the upcoming processors.
Please notice that this version of BIOS can only be updated via EZ Flash.
