I have the above motherboard and cpu on their way to me. Ive just realised the cpu is only supported by bios 1.3 which was released after i ordered motherboard. So i will recieve mobo which is incompatible with very, very expensive cpu. Please can somebody offer a solution beyond "send the mobo back" or "get another threadripper" When it says cpu is unsupported, will i at least be able to get to bios to flash it? Im hoping for some good news...? |

Yeah i realised it had a flashback button after posting. There is nothing about it in the manual apart from a label on the button on one page. I then found instructions online for a different asrock board. However i cannot find any indication as to which usb port on the trx40 creator is the bios flashback one. Its not stated anywhere i can see. |
