A. Before You Begin:

1. In Windows, close all applications and TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) programs. This helps

prevent unexpected failures when performing a BIOS update.

2. During the BIOS update process, ensure the Internet connection is stable and do NOT interrupt the

Internet connection (for example, avoid a power loss or switching off the Internet). Failure to do so
may result in a corrupted BIOS or a system that is unable to start.

3. Do not use the C.O.M. (Corporate Online Management) function when using @BIOS.
4. GIGABYTE product warranty does not cover any BIOS damage or system failure resulting from an
