Good day Community! I really need help with this one before i do this..

I have a question. i have a Gigabyte Z87 g1 sniper 1150 motherboard with dual bios. the main BIOS has the latest BIOS version which supports haswell Refresh CPUs my friend updated it using his haswell cpu . but the backup BIOS has an outdated bios which only supports the Haswell not Refreshed CPU. i wonder if it will cause problem while copying the main bios to backup bios since the backup bios does not support my haswell refresh CPU.. also do i need to set the switch to 2nd bios before copying main to backup bios? what is the correct switch settings??

Hi,
From the board's manual:
"For the sake of system safety, users cannot update the backup BIOS manually."

So, it's not possible to flash the backup BIOS.Or, at least, that's what I understood from it.
