    Z97 Classified M/B is not Overclock support Pentium G3258?
     
    Today. I have to overclocking. but Not control CPU Ratio.

    Re: EVGA Z97 Classified BIOS 1.05 Release 2014/07/08 20:21:53 (permalink) ☄ Helpfulby Cool GTX 2019/01/24 10:35:53
    Just FYI to anyone updating their BIOS to v1.05 from within Win (8.1) using my delivered v1.02...
     
    After the flash program completed it asked for a restart, and then it just went into a continuous boot loop, accompanied by 6 beeps and a 4F post error code. The manual says that 4F is "DXE IPL is started". No idea what that is.
     
    To fix my bricked BIOS #1 chip, I was advised by EVGA customer support power off, select BIOS #2, power back into windows and then WHILST in windows, select the BIOS switch from #2 to #1 and reflash. This had the same result as above when trying to boot with BIOS #1.
     
    I then took it upon myself to boot into BIOS #2 environment, then physically select BIOS #1 on the motherboard DIP switch, then flash the BIOS #1 from a USB stick from within BIOS #2 environment.
     
    The flash was alot quicker and then the system restarted immediately into BIOS #1 with version 1.05.
     
    Hope this helps anyone in the same circumstance. EVGA customer support should test this/add it to their knowledge base.
     
    Cheers

    hello
     
    flash in bios methode use just the bin in usb key
    or flash in usb boot dos is better then the windows methode
    if you flash in bios boot dos is easy to repair a bad flash just after boot change sw bios and flash the bad chip

    Um... Thanks for that cateno, I think...

    Can EVGA tech support please acknowledge my OP? There's probably something to be learned there for others.

    Thank you for posting this. I just had EXACTLY the same issue last night and used this to fix my X299 Dark with BIOS error code 4F and 3 beeps. In my case, no flashing or changes were made to any BIOS settings. It just happened randomly, for reasons that are not understood. It would still be nice to understand how and why. What you did fixed my problem as well.
