      You need to get any BIOS upgrade from Gigabyte.

      If they do not list your motherboard, it is an “OEM” board, and is only supported by the company that built it into computers.

      If they do not have a BIOS upgrade that suites your needs, then you will need to BUY a BIOS upgrade from a 3rd party BIOS writer.

      1 source is http://www.unicore.com
      At $60 for a new BIOS, I would rather buy a new motherboard.

      If your reson for flashing the BIOS is support for larger hard drives, I recommend PCI IDE controller cards. For under $30, you get both large drive support, and ATA100 or ATA133 drive support.
