: In Rufus, select "FreeDOS" as the boot selection.
Some Foxconn motherboards include a built-in BIOS update utility accessible directly from the BIOS interface.
Key specifications include:
Open the case and move the jumper back to its original pins 1-2 position to re-enable write protection.
Copy and paste all the extracted BIOS files directly into the root folder. Do not place them inside a subfolder.
Locate the 3-pin jumper labeled , ME_PROTECT , or BIOS_WP on the motherboard (usually near the CMOS battery or SATA ports).
This error message appears when attempting to flash from Windows without proper permissions or when the ME update jumper is still enabled. Users report successfully resolving this by switching to the FreeDOS bootable USB method instead of using Windows-based tools.
Ensure you see files like FPT.exe (Intel Flash Programming Tool) or AFUDOS.exe , alongside a file ending in .ROM or .BIN , and a automation script usually named FLASH.BAT or UPDATE.BAT . Phase 4: Setting Motherboard Jumpers (Critical Step)
