I have Asus Prime B350M-A. I have done everything as it was said (download file, rename it with renamer, drag and drop to fat32 formatted pendrive, and run ez flash). Bios was "processing it", and restarted after 100%. PC launched with "mobo reset screen", but after entering bios version is the same as before.

Any ideas how to make it work? I need to install new version as fast as possible today.
 


Reset the CMOS, flash the bios again. Download CPU-Z, and look under the mainboard tab, it should show Version 3402.
 



I was flashing it right after CMOS reset. I have flashed it again now, it took 10 seconds instead of 3 minutes and this time it showed "Update successful, bios will reset" or something like that but in the end it's the same.

CPU-Z shows proper version. Who is bamboozling me?
 
Asus Prime B350M-A bios version is the "same as before". Another comment ..."shows proper version". No explanation of version offered.

You wrote, "... done everything as it was said (download file, rename it with renamer,".

I see the renamer used in the auto recovery program, CrashFree BIOS 3. I see most problems are caused by using the renamer when it is not supposed to be used, however, you wrote, "... done everything as it was said (download file, rename it with renamer,". I don't know where you got that information.

This video shows the BIOS being flashed and nowhere in video is a BIOS renamer used.

Internet says that without Renamer bios won't read that file. But it would seem that i have flashed it twice unnecessary because bios has 2 versions (one on the bottom, no idea what it means), and second is shown in Main section - it shows proper version. So everything is working as intended. Thanks for help anyway.
