Ok I just bought pc parts and it wont boot up, I read online that the AMD A10 7850k needs the bios updated on some fm2+ mobos to support it. I have a gigabyte F2A88XM-D3H and its bios is on version 3. Needs to be on 4 or greater to support the 7850k. So I need to know how to upgrade the bios without having an older apu to upgrade it.

You need to download the F4 BIOS version from Gigabyte's website, then you can boot onto the EFIFlash.exe utility under DOS and update the BIOS that way.

The second part of this guide may be of some assistance: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
