" rel="nofollow - Hello everyone,

i'm having this issue, i can't currently update my BIOS from version P2.4; i've tried every possible method: every time i try to use instant flash it does not detect the file from USB and i've even double checked that the USB was formatted FAT32 (i even tried FAT), so i tried to update it by using the DOS, i made a bootable usb but when i open the executable it says that it does not support my model; at last i tried updating with internet flash and even there it says that there are no update aviable and that my firmware is up to date even though it's not. I downloaded every file i used from this page: https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/AB350M%20Pro4/index.asp#BIOS.
What can i do to solve this problem?

You should update first the bridge Bios before attempting to update the latest BIOS.

Can you post your System Specs?

Did you also try different flash drive? i know you already know it should be FAT32. 

Just try it if it works for you.

ASRock AB350M looks like this:

ASRock AB350M Pro4 looks like this:
https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/AB350M%20Pro4/index.asp

Which one do you have? I am guessing by that CPU screenshot, the first one.
