Today I'm going to show you how to update the bios on your ASUS motherboard using the ASUS EZ Flash 2 Method.

It's a very nice way of flashing your bios and I've never had any failure doing so.
The bios has a built in check to make sure the rom isn't damaged before flashing.

You can flash your bios by going to ASUS.com and looking for your motherboards model and downloading the bios to put on a USB device or CD to use with EZ Flash 2.

This particular flash was done on a ASUS crosshair IV formula Am3 motherboard however all asus motherboards have the same general EZ flash currently so you should be able to follow this method on most motherboards that have the ASUS EZ Flash option available.

Thanks for viewing!

  • Thx man really helpful video.. :)

  • @Syedmh786 Thanks for viewing! :)

  • Another question... I have a dual boot with XP and Windows 7. Is the BIOS update OS specific? XP and Win 7 are not affected by the update since it is motherboard ralted and not OS software related, correct? Thanks again!!

  • @gmomax2 You won't have any issue with dual booting after the bios update it will have no effect on any windows files.

    The newest bios from asus includes all the fixes from the past so you don't need to update through each one.

    You will probably have to set your boot priority and stuff up again after the bios flash because it usually returns everything to factory default.

    Thanks for viewing!

  • I have an Asus M4A79 Deluxe with, I believe, the original BIOS. There have been multiple (8 to 10) BIOS updates since release addressing various issues. Is it best and/or necessary to update every update (in the order of release) or can I just use the most recent update? Is the most recent "all inclusive"? Thanks very much!

  • @gmomax2 Double check that all things inside are plugged in by sata connectors and have power.

    Another thing is that USB drives can sometimes screw up the detection and take over so if you don't need the usb drive plugged in I would suggest that you unplug it before going into the bios and then plug it in later once you get it going.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks!

see all

  • @ChristianRG2000 i think you mean you want to overclock your gtx560..you don't need the bios to do that..

    just download MSI after burner, but be sure you know what you are doing..

  • @ChristianRG2000 what... graphics cards don't have bios...

  • i need to flash my GTX 560 bios...can u help me ?

  • @therealsquaseghost

    the flash drive must be formatted in FAT 16/32, not NTFS. And must have only 1 partition on it. .bin? I think it should be a .rom! (not zipped and better with a name of max 8 chars)

  • @Vidia48 I have P4P800X motherboard, and my BIOS doesn't have tools section :| where can I find EZ ?

  • Thanks. I love that bios, its so simple compaired to newer ones.
