Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Make and model of your PSU and it's age? Might I ask how you're flashing the BIOS?

Hi itsmonkouuu.

Here is how you use the Flashback function on that board.

• You download the BIOS update on the motherboard website.
• You extract the files from the downloaded file. You do not move the file downloaded on the usb key.
• Rename the BIOS file that was extracted to GIGABYTE.BIN and put it on the usb key.

Now you should be able to use the Q-Flash Plus properly and it should work.

I did that Nemesia that was the only file inside of the usb and it was named gigabyte.bit and it seemed to have done it but when it was done it still wouldn't power on

.BIN not .BIT

This BIOS update method can work or not while the CPU is installed. That method should be used while there is no CPU installed on the board.

Sorry i meant bin i accidentally typed it now liked that and nothing was installed on the board only some fans

Which bios version you are updating try previous version or new version bios.
have you bios clear cmos, like remove cmos battery and install it.

No i haven't Clear cmos yet am just taking some input before doing that

After update load bios default in bios setting.
And try clear cmos and load bios default settings save & exit.

You don't understand my motherboard won't power anything,it only gives power when am flashing it with a new bios with Q flash Plus

You have to put pen drive in white usb port at back panel of mother board for q-flash bios.
Have you checked that in motherboard manual.

Have you rename file in upper words for GIGABYTE.bin and lower for bin.
Using Q-Flash Plus
A. Before you use Q-Flash Plus, follow the steps below in sequence:

1. From GIGABYTE's website, download the latest compressed BIOS update file that matches your motherboard model.
2. Uncompress the downloaded BIOS file, save it to your USB flash drive, and rename it to GIGABYTE.bin.

Note: The USB flash drive must use the FAT32/16 file system.

1. Insert the USB flash drive into the white USB port on the back panel.
2. Connect the power cables to the 12V power connector (connect either one if there are two) and main power connector.

B. Using Q-Flash Plus Press the Q-Flash Plus button and the system will automatically search and match the BIOS file in the USB flash drive on the white USB port.
The QFLED and the Q-Flash Plus button on the rear panel will flash during the BIOS matching and flashing process.
Wait for 2-3 minutes and the QFLED will stop flashing when the BIOS flashing is complete.
• Before using the Q-Flash Plus function, make sure that your system is off (S5 shutdown state).
• If your motherboard has a BIOS switch and a SB switch, reset them to their default settings. (Default setting for the BIOS switch: Boot from the main BIOS; default setting for the SB switch: Dual BIOS)
• After the main BIOS is flashed, the system will reboot automatically and then DualBIOS™ will continue to update the backup BIOS. After completion, the system will reboot again and boot from the main BIOS.
• Q-Flash Plus will update the main BIOS only if run without the CPU installed. The system will shut down upon completion.
