I spent all night and used everyone of my various flash drives to try to revive my asus maximus V gene after a bad bios flash. For hours I spent formatting drive after drive to get the flashback feature to work. After hours of freaking out(found a "newer bios(updated oroms)" and tried flashing via bios flashback and failed. attempt after attempt the flashback feature would not flash my now "bricked motherboard. So I than tried to format a flash drive instead of using windows 10 format utility I installed(on a different pc) minitool partion wizard. Formated a flash drive with it ...tried flashing my M5G ....and it worked! Only tried it once though, so if your having probs flashing bios, try that tool.
