How to flash the BIOS

1/ Use WinZip or 7-Zip to unpack the file

2/ Copy the unpacked file to a USB flash drive (not inside a folder)

3/ Reboot the laptop and press F2 repeatedly until you get to the BIOS and select the Easy BIOS Flash utility
If you end up at Windows Login, repeat step 3, you need to be fast when pressing F2 before the ROG logo comes up.

4/ In the left window there will be a list for drives -- ie F01, F02 F03 or FS0, FS1, FS2 etc.
Select each one until you see the firmware file in the window on the right that you copied to the flash drive.

5/ Once found, select it and press enter and answer yes to flash the new firmware (should take around 30 - 40 seconds).

6/ Go back into BIOS and press F9 to load Defaults and save and exit.

After that, enter bios again to make any changes that you need in the BIOS for your BOOT device (RAID 0 etc).

I don't know if the BIOS is a cumulative BIOS update, there are no notes (ASUS does not post notes on updates / fixes for some strange reason). I would suggest that you update to the latest BIOS in the BIOS section for your laptop before flashing the BIOS listed above.

UPDATE 2
08-21-2017

New BIOS released for
G752VS: BIOS 310 Intel® Core™ i7 6820HK Processor, Intel® Core™ i7 6700HQ Processor
G752VM: BIOS 306 Intel® Core™ i7 6700HQ Processor
G752VS: BIOS 302 G752VS (7th Gen Intel Core)
G752VSK: BIOS 302 G752VS OC Edition (7th Gen Intel Core)

Visit the support section for your laptop to download the new BIOS, follow the steps above to help find and flash the new BIOS.

UPDATE 3

If you need to downgrade your BIOS, download the last BIOS before BIOS 30x (ie G752VL 219 BIOS)
Make sure that you have downloaded the correct BIOS for your G752 model before flashing the BIOS

Follow the steps below to flash the older BIOS.

Download Winflash for VL / VT / VY models from the link below
Version 3.1.0
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/nb/...669.1498478639

G752 VS / VSK / VSK OC
Download the latest WinFlash for your model from the support section for your laptop.

Uninstall Winflash from the laptop.
Unzip the new Winflash from the link above and install it. (VS models, same applies, install the new version)
Unzip the older BIOS file and place it in the ROOT of C: or on a USB flash drive
Unzip the 302 BIOS (VS models) 303 BIOS (VL / VT / VY models) file and place it in the ROOT of C: or on a USB flash drive (This is so you can re-flash it if needed using the steps above 1 - 6)
Make sure that you have downloaded the correct BIOS for your G752 model before flashing the BIOS

Make sure the power lead is connected to the laptop.

Reboot laptop and log back in.

Right click on Start icon and select Command Prompt (Admin) to run it, answer yes to continue.

Type the following and press enter

cd C:\Program Files (x86)\ASUS\WinFlash

Type the following and press enter

dir

Look for Winflash.exe

Type the following and press enter

winflash /nodate

Select the option that allows you to select the BIOS from the laptop and not the Web / Internet

Select the old BIOS that should be in the root of C: drive or on the USB flash drive.
Make sure that you have downloaded the correct BIOS for your G752 model before flashing the BIOS

Proceed with the flash, do not touch / turn off laptop while it is flashing the BIOS. Laptop will reboot after the flash has completed.

Go back into BIOS and press F9 to load Defaults and save and exit.

After that, enter bios again to make any changes that you need in the BIOS for your BOOT device (RAID 0 etc).

Nice little tutorial. I own both the VT and the VY, but they are both running nicely. Since I live by one of life's tenets - "If it aint broke don't fix it" - can you say whether there are any marked improvements that are actually worth running the risk over (for either of these laptops)?

I still run the BIOS 208 on my G752VY.
Does anyone can tell if I need to update to BIOS 213 before to BIOS 303 or is the latest a cumulative BIOS update ?

[BoutTime]

Why put the BIOS there? Why not under Windows 10 and why not under BIOS? Very strange. It's almost like they only want people to find it who are actually looking hard for it.

I got it from the windows 10 64 bit from Asus Support Downloads site standard location.

I've bought Asus ROG G752VY . It has 128Gb NVMe SSD M.2 and it has windows 10 home 64 bit in it . Then I don't feel comfortable with Win10 home , i WANT TO upgrade to Win10 enterprise . When i want to upgrade , my SSD was showing up in windows install but i cant install in it because it was GPT . So i clean the M.2 and change to MBR using CMD . After that it not showing up anymore in Windows install . Even in bios not detect my SSD ! Before that it written in bios as windows boot manager . But then no more . I updated bios to newer version 303 also nothing can do . Change Sata configuration from RAID to AHCI and vice versa also cannot . Then i installed windows in my HDD , it can . And then checked in DSKMGMT , my SSD was showing up as unallocated space . So i create new simple volume and mark as active . I enter bios to install win10 from usb , and it showing up in Windows install . Ive installed as usual then when i want to boot from SSD , it crash . Help me guys . Im fed up already , ive spent about 12 hours searching the solution .
