there are a few DS3s, do you mean 965, p35, or what?
It is my understanding, that form the bios qflash (f12 i think?) you only need the bios file on a floppy or usb key, and it updates from there.

edit, as a last resort, if it still isnt working, you can try the gigabyte bios utility in windows. Ive used it a few times with success, but i wouldnt use it exclusively.
