According to the manufacturer's website's drivers theres a new bios update. I bring this up because the computer came with windows 7 64 bit pro on it but i cleaned the partition and put windows 10 pro on it.

My version: Version:
K01 v02.90
Date: 7/16/2013

New version:
00.03.07 Rev.A
Date: 6/20/2018

It still says the same version. I suppose if the update i tried didnt mess up the bios ill just stick with the old version unless something big happens and i don't have a choice.

But ill say we should leave the thread open incase theres more input
It probably updated to latest version but for some reason the ver number did not

Change did you read the readme that should tell you how to update the bios?
