Firmware image for the Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 motherboard, BIOS version 2.30, zipped at 4.16 MB. The Gen3 variant is a distinct board from the plain Z68 Extreme4, so the two images are not interchangeable. Technicians use such a ROM either with the vendor flashing tool or an SPI programmer to recover a board left dead after a failed update. Confirm the Gen3 marking on the PCB, read and store the existing chip contents before writing, and verify that the image matches the chip size.
