Navigate your way to the appropriate section.

Notice the link to the latest version of the Universal Flash Utility.

Download this before entering your motherboard’s model number … which’ll take you to a link to the appropriate BIOS update.

If you can’t find such a utility for your particular make of motherboard, you may be able to use a Universal BIOS Wizard to examine and identify the BIOS and Chipset on your system:
