How to reset BIOS to original version?

[Zulu!]

Alright so i posted a thread earlier about this, but cant find it so if any mods find it delete it please. Anyway, is there anyway to reset my bios to the factory version it came in? I messed up pn updating my bios and need to reset it. I also dont have the cd for the motherboard if thats what i needed.

well if you mean your computer wont boot due to a bios change then reset cmos using jumper or pull out cmos battery for a few minutes... if your referring to changing the actual bios rom to the original bios you would do the same process as flashing the bios but this time with the old files from the manufacturer website..

if you messed up with updating bios and cant boot or get into bios you may have bricked the bios.. this can happen if you turn off the computer while updating bios for example

There are two methods I can think of. First if you can access your BIOS there's a 'Load factory defaults' or something like that usually with F10 key. Second you can remove the tiny round battery and thus erasing the current BIOS settings wait for half a minute and put the battery back in place. Now your BIOS should be reset to its default values.
If something went wrong during the update there's a chance your BIOS chip became unusable and you're sol and need to replace it. Let's hope that isn't the case.

this doesnt make any sense to me only possible senario is that you updated the bios and now windows 10 wont load... but windows 10 wont crash giving you error code saying its the bios

Updating BIOS then you most likely have default BIOS settings now; if they differ for certain modes and such then your OS won't load if they were relying on something set in the BIOS; such as the UEFI Mode, SATA Mode, etc.

You don't want to revert back to older BIOS anyways, doing so makes no sense.
Pretty much every updater app for BIOS/Firmware usually warn you about how you can't revert back once you do update; so hmm yea.

Recheck all the BIOS settings; then if the OS still has issues booting, insert the Win10 install media and boot from that, then do a Repair.

You could always go to the manufacturer's website and get the first version.

It doesn't let me downgrade, says "invalid file"
