Hi I have a gigabyte motherboard: GA-MA69VM-S2

I am trying to update the bios on it, its currently running F2, I have
downloaded what I believe to be the correct file fromt he gigabyte
website (a 512kb file called ma69vms2.f5) and when I try and load it
from Qbios I get two errors, the first being "invalid master boot
record" as soon as I click the update button, it lets me continue though
then when I point it to the .f5 file it loads it then says "bios id
check error" and gives no options to continue anyway.

F8 is the latest bios for this board. Try it.
