Does anyone have a copy for the boot disc for a p5n-e sli or any way to update my bios without it?

Slightlynerdy · May 30, 2014

The drivers and the latest BIOS can be found here: http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P5NE_SLI/HelpDesk_Download/

I'm not sure what you mean by 'boot disc' for a motherboard. There is only the driver/utility disk.

Slightlynerdy · May 30, 2014

i have all the drivers and everything i need all i need is the p5n-e sli support disc you need to update bios

Slightlynerdy · May 30, 2014

Slightlynerdy :

There's BIOS updating tools in the BIOS-Utilities section of downloads.

clutchc · May 30, 2014

I had that same exact board years ago and updated my BIOS several times w/o any boot disc.

scout_03 · May 30, 2014

hope you could find it since the update is in flash and dos .

Slightlynerdy · May 30, 2014

read the link you need the support dvd to update ive had all the files on my usb stick since yesterday i know how to do it and you need the support dvd or you cannot you can try and be some help and not repeat what i already know over and over again

Be civil, please. No trolling, especially toward folks trying to help. No vulgar or inappropriate language either. Thanks.

Slightlynerdy · May 31, 2014

COLGeek :

He wasnt trying to help he was just repeating what i already knew over and over they were wasting my time without answering the question i need the support dvd to update and they were no help at all

Make a DOS bootable USB drive:

http://www.howtogeek.com/136987/how-to-create-a-bootable-dos-usb-drive/

Download and copy the BIOS Flash tool from Asus to the USB drive (Under BIOS Utilities, Phoenix Award BIOS flash tool version 1.20, you'll have to unzip as well):

http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&p=1&s=22&m=P5N-E%20SLI&os=25&hashedid=KyHOsOKWujC2QguJ

Download the most current BIOS (1406), under BIOS, same link as above.

Run the flash tool executable. Pretty straight forward from here.

Or... I'm pretty sure you can use Asus EZ flash from within the BIOS and just put the updated BIOS on a usb pen.

COLGeek · May 31, 2014

Page 2-8 of the English user manual will walk you through the process of using the Asus EZ Flash 2 Utility as well. Same link as you posted before, in the Manual section.

COLGeek · May 31, 2014

There are 3 ways to flash this motherboard. Page 2-9 of the same manual tells you how to upgrade from within Windows as well.

You don't have to use the DOS based tool. None of these options is difficult.

Good luck!

Slightlynerdy · May 31, 2014

ez flash doesnt detect my usb stick

Slightlynerdy · May 31, 2014

so i was able to update it but it didnt fix my problem with my graphics card

clutchc · May 31, 2014

Poprin :

I replied to his PM with that exact same instruction. It tells him how to use Asus EZ Flash 2 and/or Asus Update in Windows right in the manual. I had that same board and never had any problem updating my BIOS. But he refused to calm down long enough to take a look.
Now apparently he has tried it and had success with the BIOS update.

Does anyone have a copy for the boot disc for a p5n-e sli or any way to update my bios without it?
