Hello !

I have recently built a new rig, and I tried to update my BIOS to the latest version, but when I do that, my PC just won't start, infinite loading.

My motherboard: https://www.gigabyte.com/fr/Motherboard/X570-UD-rev-10#kf 

I tried version F11, F10 and switch back to the F1 Version with seem to work just fine. 

Any ideas why I can't update to the latest version of my BIOS ?

Thank you for your help! 

 

Full spec if you need it.

MSI GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER GAMING X TRIO, 8 Go

Gigabyte X570 UD

Samsung Série 860 EVO, 250 Go, SATA III

DDR4 Corsair Vengeance LPX, Blanc, 16 Go (2 x 8 Go), 3000 MHz, CAS 15"

You have to follow the directions directly from Gigabytes website. 

Each bios revision must be installed one at a time incrementally. So F9 then F10 then F11 and so on. 

So if you're at F1, you have to do F2 before F3 or F5 for example. 

Each time you update bios, you must set all defaults, power down and clear cmos before updating the bios.

That made me never consider buying a gigabyte product ever. That is immensely stupid. Imagine having to go through all Windows versions to be able to install Windows 10.

Clearing the cmos after a bios update is procedure on all motherboards. Some might say to enter bios and set up defaults, I do this and the clear cmos just for safe measures. 

It's not entirely clear to me why they do it this way, but this is not the first issue in this forum that is similar to this. 

Bios update procedure is important. Nobody wants to brick a board or damage a bios. 

All Asus boards come with a bios recover boot disk. I killed a bios with a bad flash years ago on an AM3 motherboard. DEAD it was. A complete no post situation. Slapped the disk in, recovered the bios, was up and running in 10 minutes. This is one of the main reseans I've stuck with Asus all these years.

I've stuck with them until recently because they used to not do that annoying thing with soldering the BIOS chips in.

All I'd have to do is remove it and use my programmer - BIOS issue fixed and can flash it to whatever BIOS version I want even if it normally doesn't let you do it via the standard flash procedure.

 

I have to assume by now everyone is doing it making fixing such problems a nightmare if it can be done at all.

 

As for the repeating boot-loop with the OP's board, it ain't looking good from here as is.

Sometimes it can take minutes and/or multiple reboots till the board starts function properly after a uefi update. You might simply need to leave it do its thing for a few minutes.
