Question: would it matter if I updated the bios as soon as I get finished building my pc. What I mean by that is after I build my pc before turning it on could I update it without any problems and then go on with the windows bios setup once it’s done updating?
i've come back to this several times to remember the exact process of setting up the usb stick. thank you for being so clear and consise in your demostration
Almost a year later watching this, still up to date and helped me update my bios because I had an older version that wasn’t compatable with a ryzen 7 5700x. Thank you!
thanks dude! i went from a r5 5600 to a r7 5800x and i forgot that i had to flash the bios, i’ve never done that before but now i know! super easy to follow tutorial and very in depth, thanks!
thanks for this info. I had an issue with a Samsung MVME M.2 SSD drive which was no longer recognized. I was dead because my SSD drive also contained the O.S. I tried updating the motherboard BIOS as a last resort and it worked. My SSD drive was recognized again. Thanks so much for the detailed instructions.
Dont forget to press Y or Z depending on your Key layout, if you didnt use a encryption (like most of people do else get your windows backup key ready). Really great video!
Thank you so much I have this exact mobo and I followed all the steps and successfully updated my bios just waiting for my cpu to arrive now thank you so much ❤
I have the same issue i have this motherboard brand new placed a brand new cpu ryzen 5500 and offcourse new cooler evertthing works but no image ... Now i did something wrong with the flash drive file the light stays solid
The issue im having after doing these steps is "Selected file is not proper bios" i made sure to check its the right mobo, its a formatted 8gb flash drive on fat32. Any suggestions? Ty
Just got me the B550-F Gaming a few days ago to go with my Ryzen 7 5800X and still need to do the bios update, so thanks to this video I'm 100% sure I won't mess up! I just hope the bios update will solve the one final issue I'm currently having: My Gen4 Transcend 250h 4tb M.2 ssd not showing up. It does show in my bios, and even showed up as a drive to install my windows on it, but after having windows installed its not showing up in the list for "this PC". My samsung one shows up without any issues, but the transcend, nope.
Followed the instruction. At boot I get: We detected a new ftpm. . . If you did not apply ftpm function, press Y to continue. then in red "please ensure you have a recovery key or the system will not boot without a recovery key." Since I don't know what a recovery key is, I likely don't have one. is this just for bitlocker/encryption enabled? So do I press Y or no? the video did not cover this step. : )
I ended up looking through the manual because I got stuck here too and found this: " If the light flashes for five seconds and turns into a solid light, this means that the BIOS FlashBack™ is not operating properly. This may be caused by improper installation of the USB storage device and filename/file format error. If this scenario happens, please restart the system to turn off the light." I've just redownload the BIOS file to redo everything so I don't know what's exactly causing it but seems there's still more work to be done! I hope this helps or that you were able to get it fixed!
I need help. I follow these steps and the light is not blinking it's only steady. It's been more than 10mins that the light hasn't turned off. Help please. My motherboard is rog strix b550A gaming.
Amazing tutorial but I have a question, how can I define which BIOS versión should I install for my AMD 5000 cpu? Just download the latest version and that's it?
Typically you would install the newest BIOS version. If I remember correctly, there are notes that show you which version different features were added.
Can this motherboard have everything mounted (except for RAM) and then be updated with backflash?. Also can I jump directly to the latest BIOS version? I have a 5700X3D and I'm sure it's not supported by the mb out of the box, also I don't have RAM. Ty!
So the only difference i have, i use a USB of 100Gb+, i've made a partition in Fat32 (of like 2.9Go) and the reste is non partition. When i push the button, it flash like 3 or 4 times and then stay on for a long time (it's still on). Am i doing it wrong? Did i need to get a 4Go USB to do this? Did i need to return the motherboard?
There’s no bios renamer in my file and there’s literally 40+ files inside. I don’t know why mine is so different but I have the exact same motherboard and it’s so different now. Plugged it into the bios slot and pressed the button and let it run its course and it does nothing. Also the light doesn’t behave the same way. It flashes for three seconds then stays on.
Friend I have a b550-I gaming and I want to know how I can restart the manual bios, it's that I touch some options in the bio and it doesn't give me video now and I want to restart manual but I don't know how to do it
Great toot I'm about to start building my first PC and I have a B550-XE pairing with a Ryzen 9 5800X and pcpartpicker was saying I will have to update the BIOS on the MOBO for it to support the CPU.
I am having an issue where my laptop won’t let me eject my flash drive because it’s “being used by another program” but I have no other programs running
My version is the b550f wifi. Current bios is 1401. I keep getting an error in the bios for the ez flash saying it’s not a correct bios file. I followed your instructions it’s still not working. Any help?
@@alspcrepair I didn’t, I think it’s bricked bricked, I have two different amd cpus both a 5000 and 3000 series and neither worked, none of my fans on anything started up(psu, gpu, cpu cooler) so I just sent it to asus it’s honestly probably beat. Reddit says someone was downloading wrong bios, but I was not, and the fact two different series didn’t work I think might be a sign. Hopefully asus figures it out for me.
@@alspcrepair this is the fifth pc I’ve built and I’m very frustrated, I went through with a meter checking everything and wasn’t getting much readings on anything. Pretty much just where the psu was connected.
I’m running B550-F with “oldest” BIOS 1205 ver with 5600X that’s several years old, should I hassle with updating it and expect any appparent improvements with newer AGESA’s and what not? Also I’m thinking on upgrading to 58003XD so I might need to do it anyways
I’m having some problems not sure where I went wrong. Using this mb and a ryzen 5 5600x. In the bios menu it said it was an improper bios so I tried to download windows first instead and now I’m stuck in the windows 11 installer with a system incompatible message. I guess the fix is in bios but I can’t force open my bios page
Used 4 usb drives all formatted fat32 cleaned an converted to mdr on command prompt. Nothing works. I literally cant buy 2.0 drives under 64gigs anywhere so i have to format it. Everything i try ends up wits a continuous flash light instead of blinking. Is my mobo just e waste at this point?
Is there any downside to grabbing the 'latest version' and does it have all the updates of all the updates inbetween? I'm still on 2803 and wondering if I can update to the latest without issue. Thanks for the video in advance!
My bios light was flashing for 10secs then went to steady green light and hasnt turned off for at least 8mins, is it supposed to be flashing or still? Not sure how long it will take
@@Hank-jku turns out i installed the wrong bios, i installed the bf550 gaming bios but it was the b550 gaming wifi , didnt see it till i went back to the install page🤦🏻♂️
Can you help me ? My asus b550 F strix is showing a red light where the cpu 8 + 4 pin is located. I only plugged in 8 pin cpu power dont have the extra 4 pin. Problem is no boot no qled indication light. Try diff ram and working gpus.
Thank you. This was excellent and gave me the confidence to do this daunting task. Im curious...Do they need BIOS updates in Valhalla? If they do, you're made! 😂
Not all. Motherboards are compatible with all CPUs out of the box so depending on your CPU you may need to do it at the beginning. Otherwise, you can update the BIOS later if you want. You can typically see on the motherboard website whether your CPU will be compatible or you need an updated bios version.
Thank you so much! You've been so helpful. I just have a quick question if you don't mind. What does "1. Update AGESA version to ComboV2PI 1.2.0.B 2. Update AMD 5000/3000 Series CPU fTPM version, please back up Bitlocker recovery key before updating this version BIOS" mean? Are those steps I have to complete before flashing the BIOS or is that what the BIOS update is doing? Sorry if that's a silly question. T.T
I haven't dealt with this before, but if you do a quick Google search a couple others are describing the problem. You should be able to find a solution there.
if the light stays a solid green that means it cannot read the flash drive so no its not updating.....make sure your flash drive in FAT32 and MBR not GPT. Also if you still get the solid green light this is how to actually get it to read ur flash drive shut down ur pc, unplug your power cord from ur PSU and while its unplugged hit the power button to make sure you get rid of the extra power that you have going through it...wait 10 sec then plug it back in do not turn ur pc on then plug in ur flash drive and then hold the flashback button for 3 sec and it should end up working...if it does work and it keeps flashing do not turn on ur pc just wait till the flashing stops and goes away. Once u have no more green light then turn ur pc back on.
@bud7105 I finally got it to work. I had to command prompt it to format to MBR and then it copied over and my pc recognized it and flashed until the update was done. Thank you!!!
@@bigred1712 I'm Glad you got it to work, i had a issue with the same thing till i just kept trying different things and finally figured it out so once i seen your issue i knew that i had to let you know.
Thank you for the tutorial so mine after holding it for 3 seconds it flashed green then turned green solid and I guess when that is off I'd assume it's done right? I have the exact same motherboard so will see.
I have a Ryzen 7 5700X with this motherboard but I'm not sure If they are compatible. This would be my first PC so idk how to know if that processor is compatible.
I'm having alot of trouble getting the ethernet set up for this, I don't know what I'm doing wrong or how to fix it. I can't even download windows because of the no connection so I'm stuck on the BIOS screen please help
i have the ROG Strix B550-F wifi i cant run anything more then a 3200mhz ram xpm only work to a 3200mhz not more even manual overclock is there any way i can get the motherboard to run a 3600mhz or a 3800mhz ?
I have a question, when you extract the zip file and click the first file (bios renamer) you need to do it in the pc you’re updating the bios? Or can I do it in another pc?
Hello, firstly congratulations on the channel, in the documentation for this mobo it says that it accepts this AMD RYZEN 5 4600G BOX CPU, I updated the BIOS, but it still doesn't recognize the CPU, do you have any idea what it could be?
Thank you! If it says it's accepted and the BIOS is updated, I'm not sure what it could be off the top of my head but if I think of something I'll let you know. I would also try contacting Asus to see if they have any solutions for you.
@@NorthernVikingEveryday perfect! I'm still testing, as soon as we have a view from Asus, I'll bring updates here, thank you. Let's see if I can solve the mystery
Question: would it matter if I updated the bios as soon as I get finished building my pc. What I mean by that is after I build my pc before turning it on could I update it without any problems and then go on with the windows bios setup once it’s done updating?
In my case I do the procedure but after the three blinks the led stays fixed and does not go from there, in your video I see that when reading the USB memory both the memory led and the motherborad led flash. I have even tried other older BIOS downloads and nothing... What could it be? Thanks in advance.
@NorthernVikingEveryday Hi i just have a doubt, when i press the button on the back the light doesn't blink but it lights up green and hasn't turn off. It's normal ?
I know this is kind of late but if anyone was having trouble updating (I couldn’t find a usb less than 64gb on me and things got a little funky) heres another method. You can just update by using the bios menu. Open bios by pressing the delete key when the computer is posting. That should open the bios, now under the tools tab there should be an option called “ASUS EZ Flash 3 Utility”. You can then choose the drive and select the update file within it. It even shows you a progress bar so you know how far along the update is going. I find this method more intuitive and less “cross your fingers and hope the flashing lights turn off”. Cheers * Also if your light blinks a few times and remains solid afterwards make sure you have the right motherboard bios update. The WiFi version and non WiFi version bios updates are not cross compatible.
Hey guys! i got a B550F WiFi Motherboard like 2 years ago, haven't updated my BIOS at all (it's still in version 1401). Does i'm missing "a lot" by not updating to the last version (3202)?
For me my 5800x3d wasnt boosting without atleast version 2665 oder what ever that was called so in specific cases you could actually miss out on some performance

yes

I'm having alot of trouble getting the ethernet set up for this, I don't know what I'm doing wrong or how to fix it. I can't even download windows because of the no connection so I'm stuck on the BIOS screen please help
I have a asus z690 e mobo. Do I have to install all the older bios updates before I install the latest bios update ?
No, you can just go with the newest one.
i have the ROG Strix B550-F wifi
i cant run anything more then a 3200mhz ram xpm only work to a 3200mhz not more even manual overclock
is there any way i can get the motherboard to run a 3600mhz or a 3800mhz ?
I have a question, when you extract the zip file and click the first file (bios renamer) you need to do it in the pc you’re updating the bios? Or can I do it in another pc?
You can do it on any PC including the one being updated.
The green light just stays on what can i do?
Same
@@eli-yo8829 I have the same problem
Followed instruction and now speak fluent mandarin !
Hello, firstly congratulations on the channel, in the documentation for this mobo it says that it accepts this AMD RYZEN 5 4600G BOX CPU, I updated the BIOS, but it still doesn't recognize the CPU, do you have any idea what it could be?
Thank you! If it says it's accepted and the BIOS is updated, I'm not sure what it could be off the top of my head but if I think of something I'll let you know. I would also try contacting Asus to see if they have any solutions for you.
@@NorthernVikingEveryday perfect! I'm still testing, as soon as we have a view from Asus, I'll bring updates here, thank you. Let's see if I can solve the mystery
Is this the best way if I'm upgrading my cpu ?
Question: would it matter if I updated the bios as soon as I get finished building my pc. What I mean by that is after I build my pc before turning it on could I update it without any problems and then go on with the windows bios setup once it’s done updating?
I built mine last saturday and I haven't updated the bios yet (i'm not sure if it's already updated.. I havent checked) but my pc is working fine.
how did you installed windows? i just build my pc with this motherboard and only loads the bios
@@alextorres-sm4yudid you solve it? I have the same issue😂
Hello bro, it works without cpu??
In my case I do the procedure but after the three blinks the led stays fixed and does not go from there, in your video I see that when reading the USB memory both the memory led and the motherborad led flash. I have even tried other older BIOS downloads and nothing... What could it be? Thanks in advance.
I’m having the same issue
Were u able to solve it?
@NorthernVikingEveryday Hi i just have a doubt, when i press the button on the back the light doesn't blink but it lights up green and hasn't turn off. It's normal ?
I thinks it already has the update. But I’m not sure.
This was a great video nice and simple too 👍
Awesome 👍 Glad I could help.
No lights coming on for me when I press hold down the bios button
Your a gent. Cheers mate 👍
Glad to help
What does it mean if that little bios light isn't flashing but just stays on. And i wait for it to go off but it takes over 30 minutes. Help?
Same Problem here but I also have no answer. It's been 3 weeks since you posted your comment, did you find something to solve the problem?
@@prms_spidey makes sure you get the right file
So does usb exfat format not work
I know this is kind of late but if anyone was having trouble updating (I couldn’t find a usb less than 64gb on me and things got a little funky) heres another method. You can just update by using the bios menu. Open bios by pressing the delete key when the computer is posting. That should open the bios, now under the tools tab there should be an option called “ASUS EZ Flash 3 Utility”. You can then choose the drive and select the update file within it. It even shows you a progress bar so you know how far along the update is going. I find this method more intuitive and less “cross your fingers and hope the flashing lights turn off”. Cheers
* Also if your light blinks a few times and remains solid afterwards make sure you have the right motherboard bios update. The WiFi version and non WiFi version bios updates are not cross compatible.
My light has gone solid green and isn’t turning on! Haven’t been able to get it to boot up at all! :/
You ever resolve it?
Nice it help me alot new subscriber here 😊
Thanks for subbing!
Do I have to remove the CPU and RAM? Thanks
WHAT?
Great job man
Thanks 😊
Hey guys! i got a B550F WiFi Motherboard like 2 years ago, haven't updated my BIOS at all (it's still in version 1401).
Does i'm missing "a lot" by not updating to the last version (3202)?
For me my 5800x3d wasnt boosting without atleast version 2665 oder what ever that was called so in specific cases you could actually miss out on some performance
I would update. some of the bios files say they make the system more stable. just download the latest update.
Mine blinks when i turned the bios flashback but after a few seconds, it stays solid. Why???? google says it's not working properly.
Ya I’m scared to unplug it bc I don’t want to brick my motherboard. What did you end up doing?
@@Its_Eli_lul it turns out, i downloaded the wrong bios update. Be careful, there is a Asus Strix B550-F non wifi and B550-F WIFI II
@@von.3dI downloaded the wrong one at first, now I got the right motherboard bios and the light still stays solid green after 3 flashes
