Probs updating DS3 bios, help please.

[pieman109]

As title. I'm trying to update me DS3 bios using the "@BIOS" utility, but I'm getting grief here. I've downloaded the F4 bios versh, but when I try to get the @BIOS to update from the file location, I get the message "cannot load ROM image from BIN file. Maybe BIN file size not match". I've tried with the bios packed and unpacked (extracted) but no matter what I do, or file I point to, it always says the same. I'm using version 1.10c @BIOS here (the latest)
What am I doing wrong here? (I assume its me)

having the same problem here

the @BIOS I downloaded from the Gigabyte website and it connects and finds the latest BIOS (F6) for the DS3

Then when it downloads it, it crashes everytime at 100% and error reporting comes up and closes the program.

Then tried DL the BIOS seperately but same as you above

ok guys i figured this out

if you get to the gigabyte site and find @BIOS via the large link on the left, it appears to link you to an early out of date version (b I think)

If you find it by going - mobos - utilities - @BIOS it gets you rev d which worked flawlessly for me.

wish these people would sort stuff like this out

bad enough having a mobo that wont boot with 98% of the ram on the market let alone a site that has problems too

ive never bought gigabyte before and after all the problems ive had i certainly wont be again and there are thousands like me

I had success with the @BIOS utility that came on the Motherboard CD....
