GA-Z68AP-D3 (rev. 1.0)

BIOS .rar 1.57 MB Shared

BIOS image for revision 1.0 of the Gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3, an Intel Z68 chipset desktop board, packed as a 1.57 MB RAR. A separate package covers rev. 2.0, and the two are not interchangeable, so read the revision printed on the PCB first. Gigabyte's dual BIOS layout often uses two SPI chips, which matters when deciding which one to reprogram. Read and back up the existing chip with an SPI programmer. Compare its size with the file before writing, since an image for a different capacity will not fit.
