Scott, you can get a link to the new beta version of AI Suite3 here: Beta version of ASUS AI Suite that works with KB4056892 availabe - Windows 10 Forums

When you go to the ROG post with the download links select the 2nd link in the first post. It's the Google Drive one.

So far only one member has a problem installing it, but the rest of us are up and running.

Thanks, tried the google link but no idea how to install/extract it. see this list, i know i need to run setup.exe but scrolling down and clicking it does nothing

Sorry for all the questions.

Ok, i downloaded via IE11 rather than edge and now have a folder extracted. But what do I run? There is a setup.exe in the highlighted, but also another one in here too (also highlighted)

Aright Scotty, if that didn't work so you can install your BIOS, watch this video for the steps to do it manually:

Scotty one more important thin: Make sure you format the flashdrive to FAT32 or that it is already formatted, ok?

Hi Cliff, thank you. I’m doing all the same things as this chap and yes the stick is formatted that way. Oh well, I will leave for now and ponder on it! Thanks for your efforts, I appreciate it very much

I double checked, the usb was FAT not FAT32! Trying again, and somethings happening. And now it's done. Latest BIOS installed. Lost about 300 marks in firestrike test but I guess I'll take stability and latest fixes over a few marks?

Glad you got it done. I should have mentioned yesterday making certain the thumb drive was formatted correctly, sorry about that. Perhaps you can try running the Update tool Asus has in the same place at their site to see if that works to update the ME. If not then you are where I'm at. But if it works try also the Intel testing tool spoken of in this thread to see if your system is now not vulnerable. Mine still is.
