How to Flash the Gigabyte Z690 AERO G DDR4 with Q-Flash Plus

This video shows you how to use the Q-Flash Plus button to flash the BIOS of a Gigabyte Z690 AERO G DDR4 motherboard, even if no CPU, GPU, or RAM is installed. This technique will also work on a fully assembled system, so there is no need to remove all your components to use this procedure. This feature is useful if a more traditional BIOS update (using the regular Q-Flash BIOS utility or the @BIOS Windows utility) failed. The Q-Flash Plus procedure may also be valuable in the future when Intel Raptor Lake processors are released, since they probably won't work in this motherboard without an updated BIOS version.
