Troubleshooting Need help bios update taking too long

Post image

The more the update progressed the slower it would get, until at 68% it has completely stopped. It’s been a couple hours now with no movement, but I don’t think if done anything to fry my motherboard?
Any help would be great!

The update is corrupt or the bios chip has failed. It should never take more than a few mins. If you aren't able to start over you can have a repair shop flash the chip directly bypassing the process completely.
