Use a flash drive rename the bios R4E.CAP you put on the flash drive. Insert the usb into the white usb connector on the rear of the motherboard the hold the rog connect button on the rear right above it the bios light on the board should start flashing when the light turns steady again the bios has been flashed and your ready to boot.

The manual (printed or PDF) contains instructions. There are also PDF files in the support site that cover this. It's 100% possible, but you need a USB Flash Drive, and another computer to prep it. It takes some time to work so be patient. But it works. That's how I did it. Importantly: you may need to perform the CAP migration first. Read the docs, they walk you throught it. It's essentially the same procedure as "blind flashing" (flashing without boot).

The bios version that came with mine didn't support my processor (i7 4820k) all I did was load the latest bios on to a USB and follow the instructions and in less than 10 minutes it was up and running. The instructions for updating the bios are very simple, you don't need to install anything to update the bios, all you need to do is have to motherboard connected to the power source.

I updated the bios just before I loaded the OS. most every motherboard needs an update - but it worth it! The computer runs much better with the bios up update!! The instructions are in the booklet that comes with the motherboard, or you can go to you tube.

So I think I am miss understanding. You are having a Graphics Card Issue. Would you like the Bios from the Graphics card? can you please explain a little more in depth exactly what you are trying to do?

No, i did not need to update the bios in order to have the computer running, but i did it just because it's better have the last bios!

What do they mean by updating BIOS. Is this the kind of setup you spend long frustrating hours on? Should I opt for a different brand/model (suggestions?)?

Make sure your running the latest version of your bios, go to your bios and look what version, and tell me what the make and model of your motherboard, and bios version and I'll Se if I can help

Did you press f2 on restart? Not on initial start but bring it up then do a restart. I know that sounds weird but that is how I got my HE to see the 2GB memory. Hit the f2 key multiple times to get to the BIOS screen. When I installed the 667 mhz memory on my HE the vids were choppy, I replaced it with an 800 mhz and the problem is gone. Maybe I got a bad module, who knows?

Exactly. Asus Bios managment makes it a snap. Verify before updating you may already have the lastest installed.

Yes, one can press "F12" just after powering on to show a BIOS boot screen and choose the USB to boot from. (one has to press "F12" a couple of times quickly!"

Yes, you will need to update BIOS. Dude, my advice would be to stay away from that mabo. ;-)

I updated to latest bios using the usb flash bios feature. Followed instructions in the manual. It was easy and worked great!

Sorry, I never tried booting from it. It may depend on whether or not your BIOS sees it when it boots. I highly doubt you can do anything with this card before the OS loads.

The MSI website states that you should update the BIOS using Trinity to support Richland. It also says once you update it to support Richland, you cannot flash back to any earlier Trinity only BIOS

Sorry to be answering so late.The only thing I changed, that I remember is the boot order. I made sure it looked for the disk first. I also found that the company helped, they even responded with an email. Hope this helped.
