Question Unable to update my BIOS on my B450M DS3H

[Rustar00]

When I attempt to flash, I get the "checksum error". The "F50" bios that is currently installed is listed as the bios for the B450M DS3H Wi-Fi mobo. F50 is not listed as a bios for my mobo. My mobo most definitely not have built-in wi-fi. This is the factory bios. Does my mobo have the wrong bios installed? TIA for all help.

BTW, I thought that since our problems nearly were identical that it would be appropriate and possibly helpful to him to ask on his thread. On other forums people get chewed out for posting duplicate questions or threads.

I thought I had, but, clearly not, because that one worked and I am now updated. Thanks for your help.

Interestingly, on my performance benchmark I had been getting 38fps. After updating the bios, I now get 53 fps. That's like a cpu or video card upgrade.

Possibly from the AMD AGESA V2 1.2.0.8 update in the latest BIOS?

Indeed, and I'll take. I updated to the latest.
