My motherboard is older but still good. the Bios and controls are getting 7 to10 years old. I can not seem to find a good way to update all the controllers and Bios? I am almost at the point where I am going to look at replacing the motherboard. Does anyone have any ideas for the software to use to at the very least bring the systems bios into 2018? :)

    Moved over the the Legacy Motherboard forum. Hopefully you can get some assistance here :-)

    There are no updated BIOS for your board that will bring it to current standards as your board simply doesn't support any of the new features.
     
     
    These are the last posted BIOS for the X58 platform.

    I just did a refresh with new SSD and Windows 10 64Bit and loaded the old drivers that I found but I think Windows has evolved enough that most support is built in now for how it will manage drives and I added a Radeon RX 570 8Gb and AMD's software and hardware added HDMI 2.0 with FreeSync .  
     
    I only did a 240Gb Scan Disc Plus and my old old WD 500Gb 32Mb buff drive with about 84Gb left lol.. so I bought a 1Tb Seagate backs up plus and hooked it in the USB and sync it as a drive for my stream game folder .. works great ,
