I obtain the BIOS update from Gigabyte and extract it. When I launch the program, it warns against running it. I try running "run anways" and it informs me this app isn't compatible with my PC. After verifying, it lists "X570S AORUS MASTER" in dxdiag, which matches the board I downloaded the update for. The only minor discrepancy is the Gigabyte website stating version 1.0, but that's the only release they list for this model, which I'm certain about.

Is this an executable file? Avoid updating directly inside Windows. BIOS update tools often risk damaging systems. It's safer to obtain the BIOS file separately and install it via the BIOS interface. The steps differ, but typically involve placing the file on a flash drive and adhering to the BIOS instructions.

The file you're aiming to transfer is X57SAOMA.F4d, version 32,768 KB. It's an F4D file and should be placed on a flash drive for use.

Place the file onto a flash drive and run the BIOS flash utility in the BIOS settings.
