Frequent Question: Can You Roll Bios?
Contents

You can downgrade your BIOS the same way you update it.

Can you roll back BIOS?

Downgrading your computer’s BIOS can break features that are included with later BIOS versions. Intel recommends you only downgrade the BIOS to a previous version for one of these reasons: You recently updated the BIOS and now have problems with the board (system won’t boot, features no longer work, etc.).

Is downgrading BIOS safe?

Downgrading a bios is about as safe as upgrading in that you cannot be interrupted or disaster will strike, but it is in essense no better or worse and is done all the time. I never suggest upgrading a bios unless you have specific issues that the bios update corrects.
