Depending on what BIOS version you are running prior to upgrade.....you can save out your setting to USB and reload after the flash.In regards to doing a BIOS flash can I just do it as is ie I don't need to reset all my settings prior to flashing?
Obviously I'll write everything down or take pics
If you are jumping ahead quite a few different versions then youll have to reload them manually. But you also have the option to save all your settings out as a .txt file, save you having to write them all down.
As for resetting, Just select load default settings, save and exit and re-enter the bios and flash from there.......actually iirc this board does that for you. Not 100% but I think so ...
