I thought about seeing if there is a newer version of my BIOS.
But I read that you can brick a computer if the process in interrupted.
This is my BIOS info.
Base Board Information (Mother board)
Manufacturer: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
Product Name: F2A68HM-H
BIOS Information
Vendor: American Megatrends Inc.

Release Date: 04/22/2015
If I were you, I'd see if there is a newer bios for this Gigabyte, download it, but wait until power-drop season is over before installing the newer bios. I've done this when the destination motherboard is powered up with a UPS of some sort also. Good luck fixit7.
I found the BIOS updates here.
My current bios is date 4/22/15.
But I only see a Beta one and it is only a couple of months newer.
I do have a UPS with a 30 minute run time.
Unless you feel that there is something wrong with this machine that might be improved with a beta bios, I heartily advise you to NOT install this BIOS update.
