Which file to choose:

– Quick BIOS update [TNTGL357.0071.EBU.exe] – Windows-based self-extracting update files designed for use on Windows systems.
– F7 BIOS update [TN0071.CAP] – .CAP file for F7 BIOS update method. It requires a USB flash drive.
– UEFI BIOS update [TNTGL357.0071.UEFI.zip] – Allows you to update BIOS from EFI Shell. It requires a USB flash drive.
– BIOS recovery [TNTGL357.0071.RECOVERY.zip] – In case the BIOS update is interrupted, the BIOS may be left in an unusable state. Use a recovery BIOS update to recover from this situation. It requires a USB flash drive. Follow the recovery instructions in the readme file.

Important Notes:

– Once the update process has started, do not shut down your system until the update is complete. The update process can take up to 3 minutes.
– Only update the BIOS on your computer if a newer BIOS version specifically addresses the problem you are experiencing. We do not recommend updating the BIOS on unwanted computers.
– Downgrading the BIOS to an earlier version is not recommended and may not be supported. Older BIOS versions may not support the latest processors, bug fixes, critical security updates, or the latest motherboard revisions currently being manufactured. If you are trying to downgrade to a previous BIOS version and its Intel ME firmware version is older than the version currently on the board, the downgrade is not supported.
– Be sure to read and follow the instructions in this document carefully before initiating a BIOS update. You may wish to print the instructions for reference.
– If the BIOS update process is interrupted, your computer may not function properly. We recommend that this process be done in an environment with a stable power supply (preferably UPS).
– Before updating the BIOS, manually record all changed BIOS settings (from default values) so that they can be restored after the BIOS update is complete.

Express BIOS update instructions:

– Using the Intel Express BIOS Update Utility, you can update the BIOS in Windows.
– Save the Express BIOS update file to a temporary folder on the target Intel NUC.
– Double-click the .EXE file to run the Express BIOS update.
– Follow all hints.

F7 BIOS flash update instructions:

– Download and save the Recovery BIOS (.BIO) file to a USB portable device.
– Plug the USB device into the USB port of the target Intel NUC.
– Turn on (or restart) the Intel NUC.
– During booting, when the F7 prompt appears, press F7 to enter the BIOS Flash Update tool.
– Select the USB device and press Enter.
– Select the .BIO file and press Enter.
– Press Enter to confirm that you want to update the BIOS.
– Wait 2-5 minutes for the update to complete.
– Remove the USB device.
– Restart the computer.

Power button menu update:

– Power Button Menu Update allows you to update the system BIOS during the boot process and before the OS loads. However, some Intel NUC models do not include this feature.
– Download and save the Recovery BIOS (.BIO) file to a portable USB device.
– Plug the USB device into the Intel NUC’s USB port while the Intel NUC is off (not in hibernate or sleep mode).
– Press and hold the power button. The system emits three short beeps from the PC speaker. You can plug headphones into the front panel audio jack (if available on your Intel NUC) to hear the beeps.
– After the beep, release the power button before the 4 seconds shutdown override.
– Display the power button menu. The options on the menu may vary depending on the Intel NUC model.
– You can press F7 for a normal BIOS update, or F4 for a BIOS recovery.
– Wait 2-5 minutes for the update to complete.
– The computer shuts down when the recovery process is complete, or you are prompted to shut it down.

– Copy the .BIO file and IFLASH2.EXE to a bootable USB device (see information below).
– Boot the target PC to DOS.
– At the appropriate directory prompt on the USB drive, type IFLASH2 /pf XXX.BIO (where XXX.BIO is the filename of the .BIO file) to start the iFlash BIOS update process.

BIOS Recovery update instructions:

– In case the BIOS update is interrupted, the BIOS may be left in an unusable state. The recovery process requires opening the case to move the onboard BIOS configuration jumper.
– WARNING: This procedure is intended to be performed by trained technicians.
– Copy the recovery file (.bio) to a bootable USB device.
– Plug the USB device into the USB port of the target Intel NUC.
– Turn off the computer and unplug it from AC power.
– Open the case and remove the yellow BIOS configuration jumper. See the technical product specification for the location of this jumper.
– Power on the system.
– Wait 2-5 minutes for the update to complete.

About OS independent BIOS:

While installing a newer BIOS version may add new features, update various components, or improve the usability of the device, the process is risky and it is recommended that you upgrade only when absolutely necessary.

Otherwise, this task should be performed by someone with the knowledge to successfully complete the installation; normal users do so at their own risk.

When applying a new version regardless of the computer’s operating system, the most common method of flashing the BIOS is to create a bootable USB or CD containing the update files and run it from DOS.

About the BIOS update utility:

Applying a new BIOS version can bring various fixes, add new features, or improve existing features; however, this operation is risky and should be performed with caution in a stable power environment, such as that secured by a UPS unit, and only Execute only when really needed.

The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) is a very important piece of software that loads the currently installed operating system and tests all hardware components – so make sure to flash it properly.

When it comes to changing the BIOS version, the update utility searches for a compatible package in any given location or on the web, and if found, it automatically installs the required version, if you agree.

Please note that failure to perform the installation could severely damage your system, and an incorrect BIOS could even render the system unusable.

So if you’re planning to upgrade the BIOS, hit the download button, get and install the package, and run the utility to check if a newer version is available. Don’t forget to check our website as often as possible for the latest releases.
