Turn off the system and insert the USB storage device to the ROG Connect port.

5.

Press the ROG Connect button and release when a flashing light appears, which

indicates that the BIOS Flashback function is enabled.

6.

Wait until the light goes out, indicating that the BIOS updating process is completed.
