ASRock Uefi Bios (Steel Legend / Taichi motherboards)
This is the Uefi firmware for ASRock desktop motherboards such as the Steel Legend and Taichi lines. It initializes the platform and stores boot and tuning settings. The Instant Flash tool built into the Uefi menu is the recommended way to update it, reading the firmware file directly from a USB drive. In general, select the file listed for your specific board model to avoid an incompatible flash.

This coverage label describes releases discussed by this publication, not certified compatibility. Confirm the exact device or PC model, hardware revision, current Windows release, and current package requirements on the publisher source before making a change. Windows 10 Home and Pro reached end of support on October 14, 2025. Extended security updates and other editions have separate lifecycle terms; a driver listing does not extend Windows support.

The family record names ASRock support page for your board as the package source. Use Windows 10/11 only where listed for the exact model and firmware package only as reference coverage, then check the current publisher requirements for the exact model, hardware revision, Windows release, and PC configuration. A family name alone does not establish compatibility.
Shared identification, preparation, installation, verification, and rollback procedures are maintained on the full bios & uefi guide, rather than repeated on every family page. The citations below follow this family’s declared vendor, system-update, PC-maker, or motherboard-maker source policy.
Official sources and citations
These links serve two different purposes. A manufacturer support selector helps you find an exact model, but does not prove that a package or feature exists for every product in a family. Claim-specific documents explain the cited technology, requirement, lifecycle, or bounded package example. In either case, check the publisher domain, exact model and hardware revision, operating-system release, supported-products list, and package notes before making a change.

Microsoft Lifecycle: Lifecycle documentation for Windows 10 Home and Pro; separately governed editions and servicing channels can have different dates.

Microsoft documentation: Recovery-key guidance to review before a firmware or security-setting change; it is not a Bios package.
Device Driver Guide is an independent reference, not a repair or technical-support service. It does not host or mirror installers and receives no payment for these links. A named-model package example applies only to the systems and operating systems on that publisher page; it is not a recommendation to install the package across a family.
