I have the same motherboard however I have got a problem where the pc won’t boot and I have try everything, but not the bios and my pc doesn’t give a screen, so how do I update bios without screen with this motherboard? I haven’t any issues with the pc and this error was random.
This was very helpful and all but you didn’t explain the most important part. I have a z170a gaming m5 board and it still has the factory bios installed. (Never knew I had to update it) you mentioned that in order to update to the most current driver you might have to install a previous one. But how do I know? Am I supposed to be looking for a specific instruction on the details? What am I looking for to know if I have to update it to what driver?????
Great video, In your case you didn't update the bios from its "older" version before the recent one as you have 5406 as current version right? I've checked the support site for my motherboard and found some "older" versions to update before the newest one. I'm just thinking if I can skipped those and jump to the latest one?
Is it absolutely necessary to enter the BIOS to do this? The instructions on the Dell website says that I can install it straight from the support website while logged in and run it from there (as long as BitLocker is disabled first). And another thing, do some laptops support automatic BIOS updates? I'm confused because as at the time of making this comment (May 2024), my BIOS version (1.25.0) is up to date. I bought my Dell Inspiron in Feb 2018 (back when the BIOS versions available started from 1.7.0). I have not personally made any updates to my BIOS. I'm only just learning about it now. But there's a big jump between versions 1.7.0 and 1.25.0. This means that the versions potentially updated 18 times (according to the list of older versions) without my knowledge? I bought my laptop with Windows 10, and haven't yet upgraded to Windows 11 (although I am eligible for a free upgrade), so it can't be due to upgrading the OS....
I have a ryzen 5 5600G in a gigabyte B550M DS3H AC running at BIOS "F13" and plan to swap the CPU to the Ryzen 5 5700X3D (YES, you read that right, NOT 5700X or 5800X3D) which requires BIOS F10. Do i need to DOWNGRADE to version F10 or should I stay in version F13?
I have the same motherboard as you, but keep getting told “Not a proper bios.” Currently I’m on version 4602 and trying to update in order to use my new Ryzen 5800x. Would you know the best solution for me?
Sweet. I have the same motherboard you have. It would be nice to see what settings you use being that I really don't tamper with my bios. Just to see why you set what you set.
I don't usually mess with too many settings myself. The most I usually do is enable XMP (or in this case being an AMD board, DOCP) and I'll often set a custom CPU fan curve so the system will run nice and quiet unless it's under load then the fans will ramp up to keep things nice and cool. I'll usually set the fan speed to around 50% until the CPU hits 60c at which point I increase the fans to 60% and then at 70c 70% and at 80c 100%. I don't like the fans ramping up unless the temps start getting high.
Thank you for the beginners guide to update Bios:=). I have the Rog Strix x470-F gaming motherboard and the Biosversion is 4011, havent updated since i bought it im sorry to say. I have now bought an Ryxen 9 5900 cpu and a 3080 graphic. The question is; do i need to update every bios from 4011 to the newest today just to make the new ryzen work on my motherboard? I have now a Ryzen 7 2700X.
If your computer is running just fine there's no need to update your BIOS. I made this video for people that know they want/need to update their BIOS but don't know how to do it. I have an older video where I talk about the reasons you'd need/want to update as well as how to do it. The most viewed segment of that video is the update process walk-thru so I figured it was worth making a new, updated video simply showing that. The reason I updated this board is because I'm building a PC using that older X470 AMD motherboard and wanting to slot a Ryzen 7 5800X CPU into it but because that motherboard is older it won't work with that CPU unless I update the BIOS.
possibly... but I would try updating or maybe even rolling your Ethernet driver back. I actually recently had the Ethernet port on my motherboard keep dropping it's connection and I first checked if there was a newer version of the driver, but I had the most recent one, so I rolled my driver back to a slightly older one and so far, no more dropped connections... knock on wood.
What about it saying "Important Notice!! Please backup your bitlocker recovery key and suspend bitlocker encryption in the OS before updating your bios"?

i have the same motherboard but still with bios for ryzen 2000 (currently r7 2700x) -0225- , should i install first -5861- for ryzen 5000 or can i immediately -6042- ? Do I need to install an even older version on the way?
@@Papoose35 In my case, I could immediately install the latest BIOS and run the R5 5600, but out of caution, I installed the first one in which the new AGESA was introduced, and only with the new processor did it update to the last released update, but as I wrote, you can immediately install the latest BIOS, only MSI boards have a procedure for installing a new BIOS, the order of even several updates must be maintained, I've already done it.
I have updated my bios to new one and it downloaded pc went of and on a few time and now I have a black screen but my motherboard is flashed green, what does this mean do I have clear my cmos?
For what reason were you updating your BIOS, may I ask? And what CPU do you have? If you have an older AMD Ryzen CPU like a Ryzen 1000 or 2000 series and you updated to the most current BIOS that will make your motherboard only support Ryzen 3000 and 5000 series CPU's. There's only so much space on the BIOS chip to store the data needed to support different CPU's, so when you update to the most recent BIOS that adds Ryzen 3000 and 5000 support it has to overwrite the data for Ryzen 1000 and 2000 and those CPU's will then no longer be recognized. Depending on your motherboard you'll then end up with either a message saying your CPU isn't recognized or just a black screen. Since you're saying you have a black screen after updating I'm wondering if you have a Ryzen 7 2700X CPU or something and you updated to the most recent BIOS and now your motherboard doesn't recognize your CPU? Another thought... I've had a weird thing with my PC recently where when I've booted into BIOS to adjust my RAM speed and restart my computer the screen stays black. I've had to unplug my display port cable from my monitor and then plug it back in, and then the signal finally comes back. Not sure why it did that, but at least it was a simple fix. As for fixing the problem I talked about first, if you currently have a Ryzen 1000 or 2000 CPU; you'll need to buy a Ryzen 3000 or 5000 CPU and swap it into your motherboard in order to get your PC up and running again.
If you have the same board, Asus Strix X470-f Gaming, the BIOS update I did for this video added SAM and I of course turned it on and have been using it. 😎👍🏼
I'm obsessed with computers and my job is IT, yet I always forget how to do this, and I haven't updated my BIOS at all so I'm still running the original factory bios from over 2 years ago..
@owomen5863 I don’t have one its gonna be my first pc build. It’s gonna be for a flip. I bought a $1300 prebuilt for $500 on sale but that cpu is not compatible. I found a video showing me how to do it without a cpu though.
I don't know if this is as much of a thing nowadays as it was in the past. In the old days you would sometimes need to update to a certain BIOS version before you could update to a more recent one if there had been a lot of BIOS updates for your motherboard. On all the more modern stuff though I haven't seen this, so I don't know for sure if it's still something we need to worry about or not. I mentioned it in the video because I've had to do it in the past, but at the same time, it has been a long time since I last had to do that.
Hey brother, I'm not understanding exactly the step where I might be required to go backwards in bios version. I have the exact file you've shown here ver. 6042, myPC sees it, but it says "file is not a UEFI bios file" for some reason. Perhaps because I'm on an oooold version already? To my knowledge, it has never been updated. Secondly, I downloaded the file just to my hard drive, as I didn't understand why I would need a thumb drive. I'm using the exact same mobo as you, the x470-F gaming and am trying to see if updating the bios will allow me to use a Ryzen 7 5800x3D CPU, as it currently wont boot with it installed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm on the verge of just giving up and buying a newer motherboard, which is frustrating because the entire reason I bought this CPU was because I didn't feel like it was necessary for me to go beyond AM4 as nothing is wrong with my mobo (or so I think.)
