Hi, first time building a PC. I wanted to update the BIOS via the Instant Flash method. I've started the update (from 3.06 to 3.10) and it seemed to be going smoothly, the progress bars were filling up, however at the end I'm not sure if I was supposed to press something because it's been sitting on a black screen for like 15-20 minutes now and I don't know what to do? The PC is on, the fans are spinning, the HDD front panel light is bkinking from time to time and the LEDs in the top right corner of the motherboard are off. Please help! :S

Hi!

Normally, you shouldn't touch anything, during a BIOS update!
Any interruption of the system, during the BIOS update process, can brick your motherboard!
