Not Laptop - Asrock Z87 Extreme 4 BIOS required

[dicky96]

Hi guys
I tagged this on to an old repair thread a few days ago but maybe it was missed there

I'm looking for BIOS for Asrock Z87 Extreme4.

I need a BIN or ROM file as the motherboard will not POST

The files on Asrock website are for DOS or Windows or the BIOS update util.

None of them contained a BIN file. I thought the Windows version may allow me to write a BIN file to disk, but when I run it on another PC it just opens blank DOS window for a second and that's it.

The instant flash versions are the easiest to work with, it is a BIN with different filename extension and a 4KB header .Delete the header with a hex editor to get the full bin, then rename it to bin or rom .
The attatched bios is the 3.50 beta version.
