I bought an asrock 870iCafe v1.0 motherboard.

I cannot find anything on the downloads page for the v1.0 board.

On the first tab of you BIOS, directly under the date and time (which should still show as numeric values) is the language setting, if you select it it should provide you with a list of languages to choose from.

I wouldn't be holding my breath waiting for a BIOS update for this. If there hasn't been one since 2010 I highly doubt they will be one at all.

Conserve our machines resources and disable or uninstall the firmware monitoring.


I'm not being a hard a** in stating that. Just reality from where I sit.

yeah i figured.
the version 2.0 board has USB 3.0 and maybe other changes so that means the bios wont work i guess.

The v2.0 board BIOS will brick your 1.0 board and even if it does not it will likely be unstable. I would not risk it.
