So I bought a Intel core i5 ivy bridge processor and I currently have an Intel H67 Express Chipset. I know that I need to update my BIOS but I'm not quite sure how to.
I tried going to my manufacturers site (Gateway) and downloading the update there. But whenever I try to update, it says the ROM file does not match the existing BIOS size. The one I'm trying to install is a 2.5mb and I'm not sure on what mine is. I can't seem to find my model number anywhere, I tried CPU-Z and it shows up as DX4860, but that appears to be non-existant. It's also the model of my computer.
So I'm curious as to what I need to do to update my bios, or if I should just return the processor until I can get a new motherboard entirely.
