Default Using Q-Flash on a Gigabyte GA-M61P-S3

How do you use Q-Flash the only BIOS I can find for my motherboard is exe's on the Gigabyte site. Is that what I need to flash the BIOS? Also can I use a flash drive instead of a floppy?

EDIT: Oops the exe extracts it.

I've loaded up the bios through Gigabyte's site onto a USB Key and voila you go into Q-Flash and you simply flash!

I'm pretty sure you could even use an external drive, or any external media for the matter.

It's as easy as 1-2-3
