Did ASUS withdraw all newer BIOS versions??

[Nahrga]

I can't seem to find any newer BIOS versions than version 2012 for my VII Ranger:

Same goes for VII Hero. Did ASUS withdraw these BIOS versions?

Thanks in advance 🙂

Same for the VII Impact.
Maybe this has to do with it ?

Or they are finally compiling proper BIOS update changelogs and discovered non-descript ones might be related to new problems popping up after every update.

This is wierd.. 😕
I just checked the page for VII Formula and the newest version is 2012 there as well.

Could be. I hope there will be a statement from ASUS on this.

EDIT: I'm using one of the "newer" versions myself (BIOS 2101) and I would really want to know if there is something wrong with these versions.

I just checked your link and there is only 7 BIOS files under Windows 7. Maybe if you clear your cache they will disappear.

Hm.. I actually got the same thing happening when I check under Windows 7 on the VII Ranger download page. I can see all the BIOS files, however, if I try to download them it says "File not found"... :I
Something wierd is going on here..

For the Gene, the 2304 and 2401 are still available for download.

The VII Gene ? You should clear your cache. It actually shows a newer version, but not the 2304 and 2401.

MAXIMUS VII GENE BIOS 2501
Improve system stability.
File Size 5.74 MBytes
update 2015/03/26

Another update, another very cryptic and basic change log.

I can confirm. For VII Hero was 10 Bios files last was 2401 now has 7 where the latest is now 2012...ODD
