Hi, I've just built a new pc and i bought a new motherboard called Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3. It works with an amd 8core processor. But the question is: How can i update my bios and also i saw some GA78LMT-USB3 and mine is 78LMT-USB3. I don't know if there is any difference or GA is only for Gigabyte. I've also saw about rev 4.1 or 4.2, i don't remember well about it but idk what does that mean. I think i need some help hehe. ^^'
Need help for choosing and installing good bios

In the top left corner it will tell you which revision you have. Next to the built in Taipei text. As I recall Gigabyte has a very easy and forgiving BIOS installer. You can roll back very easily.

Choose your revision at top and newest version of bios. Extract it to a folder and run the .exe.

It was rev.6 and i've downloaded the rev.6 .zip but when i wanted to run the .exe, i had an error which is: The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see wheter you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher.

Easiest method to update BIOS. Download this and run the exe:
@BIOS (AMD)
It's a BIOS updating utility from Gigabyte.
Cheers!

I've downloaded it and i runned the setup. Then i runned @BIOS and i saved a backup then i've updated it. But after the update i got this error: The BIOS file is not correct ! Please download again.
Any idea?
EDIT: Okays, I've just updated it with both of answers! I just used @BIOS and i've used the file that i've downloaded! Pressed ''update with file'' and i choosed the .F2 extention and worked. Thanks!

Before updating, the @BIOS might show you the current BIOS revision number. Can you tell me that existing BIOS revision number?
