14 DAY TRIAL // ASRock has made available new BIOS packages compatible with some of its Intel Z97 chipset-based motherboards, which update VBIOS, ME, and Microcode, as well as add support for NVME.
To be more specific, the producer has outed BIOS versions 1.30, 1.50, and 1.70, suitable for its Z97 Extreme9, Z97M Pro4, and Z97 Pro4 motherboards, respectively, as well as BIOS 1.90 developed for Fatal1ty Z97X Killer device owners.
Besides the aforementioned improvements, the Fatal1ty Z97X Killer and Z97 Pro4 products receive improved M.2 compatibility, and along with ASRock’s Z97M Pro4 devices, get their shared memory settings adjusted.
In addition to that, through the 1.50 BIOS update, the Z97M Pro4 motherboard also updates its i5-4690K and Pentium Anniversary G3258 EZ-OC table, as well as the Linux GUID table.
When it comes to applying these packages, you should know that the producer has provided 3 update files that allow its users to flash the BIOS through 3 different methods: Instant Flash, DOS, and Windows.
Specifically speaking, while Instant Flash download must be extracted onto a removable storage and executed from within the BIOS setup menu, the Windows package is to be unzipped and run from a Windows operating system.
As for the DOS download, the file included within this archive must be executed from a DOS prompt. Either way, upon completion, make sure to reboot your computer and load the default BIOS settings to be sure no problems will be encountered.
That being said, from the links below, follow the one best describing your device model, download the appropriate file suitable for your desired upgrade method, and apply the latest BIOS on your motherboard.
