    I found an archive of almost every Supermicro BIOS updates ever released for this brand of motherboards. I flashed to the latest directly from Supermicro, but the moment Win11 starts booting up, the circle may swirl 1, to 1.5revs and i get a Blue screen saying my PC ran into trouble, and will be reset. It was working, but _usually_ after the machine reset the first time, upon reboot, it would 100% hang and the swirl.. but resetting it enough, automatic repair would load, then pick RESET and usually it would fully load, and operate. Well, now i cant get the same instance of Windows 11 Pro that was kind of running to even try to boot. So I flashed it back to what was on it (3.3 i believe from 2018) still no dice. Well, the genius I am ;) I grabbed the original BIOS from launch date, and it flashed, and posted, but that's all, it Jumps straight to BIOS and refuses to boot from USB. So, I'm going to try to attempt directly writing to the BIOS IC, using a c341 BIOS programmer.. and I can not, for the Life of me, track down where/which chip is indeed, BIOS. If anyone more familiar with this board can help, the advice will be cherished!!!! it's getting to the point to where I'm simply going to replace the board all together... and if it WAS already damaged, or somehow I damage it writing a BIOS via c341 programmer, that's how it goes...
