I need to update the bios on my x58 EVGA 3x SLI (A1) motherboard. Kinda nervous because I know what happens when something goes wrong. Is is the correct procedure: (Im using the burn image steps)
<already downloaded image and burned to disc)
1. restart system and go into bios
2. Save defaults and exit
3. restart computer and press escape to boot from image on disc
4. flashing should start and wait for it to finish
5. Shutdown system completely, reset cmos to empty it (On this mobo, the cmos button is at the back , sticking out)
6. Turn on PSU, turn system on and go into bios
7. In Bios, load optimized or no optimized; load defaults
8. save and exit
9. All done!
Will the flashing let me know when it's done? Also, if I download the latest update, does that include all the other updates or do I have to download each and every one of them and flash one at a time? Im going to do the flash bios later tonite. But how does this look?
