Gigabyte BIOS Update (Users)

OK, but you update on your own risk!

If you download the FK version and have a look at autoexec.bat you can see that they removed the option /Z , means: they type:
flashspi EX58UD3R.FK
And they used the same flashspi file (same creation date and size).
Means: the options are not really necessary, but I personally would use these options:

flashspi /S /R EX58UD3R.J18

and when this update works:

flashspi /S /R EX58UD3R.FK

/S = SAVE ORIGINAL BIOS IMAGE to your USB-stick - so you have a copy of your
actual version on your stick,
/R = REBOOT, means, it reboots when the job is done.

Forgot to mention: You should not switch off machine while update is running. You either get a message that it is safe to switch off or with /R it should reboot automatically.

As said: you update on your own risk!
I also think that it would be a good idea, if you read my Newbies01 + 02
text for DOS some day, see:
https://www.bootablecd.de/FreeDOS-Internet-version/help110/en/hhstndrd/help/newbie01.htm
It helps you to understand the basic DOS commands that you can also use even with Windows11 command line. I know it is far far away from being a manual, but a basic explanation for people that tap on mobile phones.
Please inform us if everything worked fine.
