  5. With the system powered off (but AC power connected), insert the USB drive into the designated USB BIOS Flashback port on the rear I/O panel. Refer to your motherboard's physical manual for the exact port location.
  6. Press and hold the USB BIOS Flashback button (usually located near the USB BIOS Flashback port) for about three seconds until the LED light starts to blink.
  7. The LED will continue to blink during the update process and will stop when the update is complete. Do not power off the system during this time.

Instant Flash (via BIOS)

  1. Prepare a USB drive (at least 32GB) and format it to FAT32.
  2. Download den nyeste BIOS file from the official ASRock webhjemmeside for din specifikke bundkortmodel.
