Hello, I recently bought a A320M-HDV motherboard and it has the very earliest bios version on it, I am trying to update it but not having much luck, when I download the bios from the support section of Asrock I am only left with 1 file after I Unzip what I have downloaded, this file is not a .bin file but is a .00 or .40 depending on the version I download, needless to say that when I try to flash the bios from a fat32 formatted usb stick I just get a massage to say 'image not found'.
I have tried to unzip with both windows zipper and winrar, is there something i'm doing wrong?

The flash maybe does not work, because the new bios is too new.
Is it the A320M-HDV R4.0 board?
What CPU are you using?
If it is a Gen1 or Gen2 Ryzen, you should not try to update to a newer version as based on AMD AGESA to 1.0.0.6.
Version 1.40:
- AGESA 1.0.0.6
Version 1.50:
1. Improve SATA M.2 SSD compatibility with Bristol Ridge CPU
2. Correct CSM control mechanism
So 1.5 should be fine
With 2.00 the bios starts to support new Gen3 CPUs.
