Good day to everybody!
Yesterday I built my new computer. It has the Intel DZ68DB Motherboard. Everything seems to be fine, there are some issues which I have to make clear though (USB 3.0 not working, BIOS update etc.)
After basic Install of Windows 7 64 bit (no updates or service pack, no Drivers installation even for GPU) I decided to make a BIOS update to the latest 0032 Version from the current 0014, which is the one that DZ68DB comes with.
I found in several threads, and also read in Intel Forums that in general is better to update the BIOS first and then install any drivers, so this is what I wanted to do.
I had downloaded and stored in my second internal HDD, while I still was using my old system, the latest BIOS update version (0032 express method with .exe file via Windows).
I run the .exe file as described in the Intel Video and .pdf instructions for express BIOS update.
The weird thing is, that at the point where I am informed "not to shut down the system for the next 3 minutes" the system restarts as it should but no update process is taking place or being displayed actually. Windows starts normally and I am informed that the "BIOS update was successful". When I enter the BIOS I see that still the old version is installed, the one the motherboard came with (0014).
Why is that happening? Any suggestions? Can this happen because I downloaded the .exe file when I had my old system? Should I download it again now that I have my new rig and retry?
Thank you very much in advance!
