Did you unzip/extract the UEFI/BIOS file, from the Instant Flash download file for your board? This is the BIOS download page for your board, the USA ASRock website: http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/X99M%20Extreme4/?cat=Download&os=BIOS" rel="nofollow - http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/X99M%20Extreme4/?cat=Download&os=BIOS In Windows, left click on the Instant Flash BIOS download file, select Extract All, and follow the prompts for the location of the extracted BIOS file. Do this procedure on the PC's drive, not on the USB flash drive. Once you have the extracted BIOS file, copy it to the main folder of the USB flash drive. The USB flash drive must be formatted as FAT32. Put the USB flash drive into a USB 2.0 port on the board's IO panel. If you are already in the BIOS, restart the PC into the BIOS again, and then start Instant Flash. Instant Flash should see the extracted BIOS file fine. Internet Flash may not work, depending upon your network connection type. Windows 10 is known for having networking issues. When using Internet Flash, you must put a FAT32 formatted USB flash drive into a USB 2.0 port on the board's IO panel. ------------- http://valid.x86.fr/48rujh" rel="nofollow">

Ok, but it still doesn't see anything Internet Flash may not work, depending upon your network connection type. Windows 10 is known for having networking issues.
