I am trying to update the BIOS on my ASUS M5A78L-M USB3 Motherboard.
I downloaded the latest updater program from the ASUS website for my motherboard.
When I run the updater, I have to choose an OS. I choose Win8 64bit.
A pop-up informs me that the program will not run on my system & to contact the OS manufacturer!!
How & where do I contact Microsoft about this?
I have tried everything but the onboard BIOS updater will not recognize a USB port with new BIOS as instructed.
It will not recognize the CD/DVD drive either. It recognizes other drives but cannot use there drives for updating the BIOS!
