    P775 what? What file did you get? The wrong one can brick your machine.

    Are you experiencing issues since you're updating the bios?

    You want to flash the EC first hand and the BIOS afterwards. (do NOT remove the battery when flashing)
    There is a guide on how to here.

    IIRC you need a USB drive, then grab the UEFI boot files and drop the unzipped files from the EC folder into there. But I'd take the time and read up on it beforehand to understand the procedure.

    Sounds about right to me, normally your resellers support gives you a file/instructions.

    Hello @joluke , What would be the best actual Bios/EC update for a P775TM1-G with 1080?
    I'm actually on Dsanke Bios 1.07.26 and EC 1.07.16
    I don't know if it's better to go back to stock bios or keep on dsanke one, where I'm completely lost in that ocean of settings.
    I would Optimize to the best possible.
    Thanks :)
