Help with PC flashback
Hello! Your setup sounds good, but the PC is experiencing some resets and the red LED isn’t changing. That could indicate a power issue or a faulty component. It’s normal for a new system to reset occasionally, but if it keeps happening after about 10 minutes, it might be worth checking the power supply or connecting the device properly.
Did you adhere to the Q-Flash Plus guidelines listed in the 'Unique Features' document? Were you instructed to prepare the BIOS file precisely as shown, and to operate the feature correctly? https://download.gigabyte.com/FileList/M...1a76c13c62 Generally: Obtain the BIOS update file from Gigabyte. Extract it. Change the filename to GIGABYTE.bin. Create a USB drive. Set the format to FAT32. Insert the modified BIOS file onto the USB drive—avoid organizing it in folders, etc. Insert the USB into the designated Q-Flash Plus slot on the motherboard. Activate the Q-Flash Plus button. Additionally, use the specific USB port located at the rear of the motherboard that is compatible with Q-Flash Plus.
I also utilize Gigabyte motherboards. Since your PC is now assembled, you might try these steps if you're still facing issues updating the BIOS. Use a fat32 formatted thumb drive and download the newest BIOS files. Extract them and copy the files onto the drive. Insert the drive into the USB port located at the back of the case. Restart the system into BIOS, choose the drive, then select the update path and click 'Run' or similar. This should resolve the problem. I haven't needed to use the specific USB port on the back before; I've performed several updates over the past 18 months without encountering the required blinking indicator.
The USB stick measures 25 millimeters in length and 15 millimeters in width.
