Again, removed/ejected drive 'safely' before shutting down re-inserted drive before booting into Q-Flash (End) and successfully flashed BIOS from. It appears that the drive was corrupted in some way through restarting the system without having 'safely removed' the USB device, resulting in Q-Flash being unable to access the drive for writing/reading.īefore attempting the flash procedure, I did not have the 'remove hardware safely' icon appearing, and Nirsoft's USBDeview had listed the drive as being safe to remove without having to use that facility. Since then, the icon appears each time the drive is inserted. F6 and it seems stable, no issues, overcome with euphoria. "Once you are sure everything is working as you want it you can synchronise the Backup BIOS to match the Main BIOS. To check on the versions go into the BIOS and on the MAIN page press F9 for system info. You should see both BIOS versions listed, if they do not match please update the backup BIOS to match the current. To do that, reboot and where you would normally press DEL to enter the BIOS, instead press Alt + F12, this will flash the Backup BIOS with the MAIN BIOS contents. Do not worry when you see a recovery comment, that is normal and means it is flashing the backup BIOS."į9 gives me only the current main BIOS version (F6).Īlt + F12 did not register using a USB keyboard, so I swapped out with a PS/2. I wonder if you guys could help me please? On restarting, Alt + F12 presents the boot override menu (Please select boot drive), as does Alt Gr + F12. I have a Gigabyte X79-UD3 (rev 1.0) motherboard on F10 bios and have just purchased a Gigabyte GTX 780 Ti Windforce graphics card which isn't playing nicely with my system.

My old card, the XFX HD5970 Black Edition works perfectly.
