Default bios flashing

I intend to update my gigabyte mobo bios from AMI bios F2 toF7 using Qflash
utility. It advises not to make big jumps in versions. any advise on using
this utility and whether I should update in 1 2 or 3 steps?

Jo

Do it in one step. If you do it in multi-steps you increase the
probability of a bad flash. Just back up the F2 before flashing, and you
should be fine.
