Dual BIOs with replaceable BIOS chip explanation
It is advisable to use Single BIOS mode such that the second chip is untouched. Flash only via USB in the BIOS itself via Q-Flash. Don't flash in Windows or other OS. Try to load Optimized Defaults so that all settings are stock before flashing the BIOS. When you have a corrupt main BIOS you can then flash over the main BIOS by switching the BIOS to the 2nd BIOS. 1. Set board to single BIOS mode if not already. 2. Boot off the backup BIOS 3. Once in the BIOS flip the switch to the BIOS you want to flash, 4. Use Q-Flash to flash the BIOS. After reboot it may power cycle up to 5 times for memory training reasons. |
