1. Copy the files to a thumb drive
2. Reboot into the BIOS
3. Open QFlash and update the BIOS from the files on the thumb drive

Unless these newer boards can read NTFS formatted thumb drives you will want to make sure it's formatted FAT32.

Insert the thumb drive. Open my computer (or Computer in W10). Right click on the thumb drive. Click on format. It will give you the option to format in NTFS or FAT32.
