I appreciate you trying to help LSDme but frankly if GB doesn't come up with a working BIOS soon, this mobo gets put in a HTPC and the main rig gets an Asus M4A78T-E as I jump to AM3 DDR3 and all ASUS hardware.
Thanks again!!

Ya you are right, but since they pulled 955 support for now that may be part of the reason why?
I hope they get you a working BIOS soon as well, hate to see you switch teams!
Sorry I cannot do more myself or I would

However, it is my first time doing this so I have some questions:
I copied the new bios file on a USB-Stick to flash it with QFlash. Is that correct?
Now I dont know what to do afterwards. In your guide you say:
I´m only using one hard disk so I´m not sure if that has something to do with RAID... Also my windows is not already installed, because I planned to update the BIOS first and then install windows, so I´m a bit confused (especially about the steps shown in the picture)
Do I still have to do all these steps?
Best regards

Yes, all you need to do is copy the extracted BIOS file onto your USB Stick then flash from Qflash.
Since you are not using RAID you do not have to worry so much about my tips on loading optimized as it will not be so important to you to have your disk settings correct. And since you do not have windows even installed yet you are good to go with the flash.
Just flash, load and apply optimized and then save/apply F10, reboot to the BIOS and setup your intended settings.
