Sorry you have to resort to that! Hope it works out for you though!!!!
i sent email to intel and they told me that asus can provide me that bios. So i contacted asus back with the information from intel and asus replied this back to me:
Hi Thomas !
Okay i see, I have asked our HQ if we can provide such BIOS/Firmware update.
Please for your understanding it might take some days before i get an reply from them.
Wish you a great weekend !
