Hey guys new to the forum but not computers.
So ive decided its time to update my BIOS to see if it will fix some issues with my DVD drive that continues to dissapear from device manager. (Already go the DVD firmware up-to-date). Its been buggging out since the swap from ATA to ACHI but my SSD seems to function loads better in this mode.
So i looked on the AsRock website and found 2 new BIOS updates, however one looks really important. I know in the past you just updated to the latest version but this one makes a massive change to the Motherboard, Enabling 3rd generation CPU (aka Ivy Bridge CPUs).
Heres the page. ASRock > Z68 Extreme7 Gen3
Do i update to 2.10 first or can i skip it and flash right to 2.30?
If not what are the steps to install 2.10. Do i flash the BIOS first or install the drivers? AXTU, Intel ME (Do i need this?) and the VGA driver.
Thanks guys awaiting your reply.
