    Thanks, this is the ONLY information online that enabled me to update my gigabyte mobo. Nothing else worked. This info isn't even on the gigabyte website, let alone reddit, the paper user manual, anywhere I looked. For anyone wondering, this works fine with all the components already plugged into the motherboard (at least it did for me).

  • @Kaneguy

    Mike, your recommendation to qflash the bios without attaching all of the peripherals is spot-on. For the last 2 years, my Gigabyte Aorus X570 Ultra has been plagued by random boot failures. This problem continued despite keeping up with the latest bios put out by Gigabyte. The PC would eventually post after restarting her 2-4 times. This past weekend, however, my pc refused to boot up despite repeated attempts to restart her so I decided to qflash the bios with an older bios version thinking the most recent bios was causing the problem. The qflash failed so after reading some literature which stated that Gigabyte had recently changed their bios to prevent installing older bios for security reasons, I attempted to qflash the bios using the latest file. The qflash failed and I could not get the PC to post. The only thing that would run when I powered her up was the case fans. I was fed up and decided to scrap the board and spent the next hour looking for another suitable replacement online and then I found your video (again!) and decided to follow your suggestion of qflashing the MB without the peripherals being attached and this time the qflash worked. The MB now posts every single time the PC is powered up. Thanks for your informative video!

    Just watched this and am going to go down to the main PC and see if I can breath some life into it! Unfortunately it did not work for me, correct bios file and did everything that you mentioned apart from removing the CPU, but it seems to flash and will not boot the system. Shame as it is a newish CPU, newish RAM, on board graphics as I have not put the brand new card in yet. The whole lot is going in the bin!.

    Your diction could use some improvement. I could barely understand you at some points. You need to slow down a bit and enunciate. Doing so will help you to not slur your words as much. I'm just trying to be helpful. You have knowledge that I need badly right now and it's really frustrating trying to understand you. There many places I had to re watch several times. I even had to slow down the play speed to 75%. That said I want to thank you for this video. It saved me a second return to Amazon.

    hello Mike, i have a B550 Aorus Elite V2, and mine is revision 1.0. On Gigabyte support bios download, theres versions since 1.0 to 1.5. I should download only the 1.0 or go straight to the latest revision?

    • @mikesunboxing
      @mikesunboxing  2 місяці тому

      the board revision and the bios version are to different things.
      The motherboard revision never changes and it is when the manufacturer makes a change to the design of the board.
      you use the newest bios version for the revision of motherboard you have.
      hope that makes sense

    When i tried this, i actually unplugged everything cept the connection to the fans cause they were close to the motherboard connection on the top left. When the qflash switched from mode the fans turned on. After a while the led dissapeared but the fans stayed on. This was basicly my last option what i didnt do yet, my problem is a No signal / No post, after purchasing a new mobo and PSU. What i did noticed and found strange is that besides the black screen, i cannot power down the PC with holding the power button. Not sure if the Qflash was succesful i didnt saw motion changes in the LED but with the system not turning off i think there is another problem, anyone got any ideas?

Well I did nothing, I tried flashing some other options as well as different names but turns out nothing changed or was different. I went ahead and just tried to start up my 5900x again and it worked! I guess for the r 1.5 the downloads are smaller and faster, DIDNT require PSU fan to turn on (maybe because I was using a 1300 P+?) so I guess I did it, all it took was 30 seconds so I got worried it didn’t work

I plug the mobo into my PSU and when I power up my PSU no lights come on at all, and the q flash process has no activity at all.
    Is there a standby power light for this mobo? I plugged my old motherboard in and it has a standby power light with the same power cables so I know it’s supplying power. Any ideas?

Put in the USB in the same port, pressed and held the button. No lights. Only thing I got was when i turned the PSU on, the motherboard flashed.
