Updating BIOS on Gigabyte GA-A320MA-M.2?

Hello all. I am attempting to update the bios on a Gigabyte GA-A320MA-M.2.

I currently have it at version F25. However, when flashing to F30, the board becomes bricked as my monitor just shows a black screen; and the pc sounds like it's in a power-cycle-loop (luckily, I have a CH341A Programmer and am able to re-flash the BIOS back to F25).

Note that per Gigabyte's instructions I have updated the AMD Chipset Driver to 'version 18.50.16.01 or later' (later in my case).

Any ideas what else I can try to further update the BIOS? One thing I might do is un-install the AMD chipset drivers and then re-install version 18.50.16.01 to see if that will allow a successful update.
