    Tell me what message appears when the BIOS update program judges current version as newer than P12AJB and I'll try to do something about it.

    It is gray until no write/read operations are performed. Have you tried opening CAP file with AFUWINGUI?

    Yes, I open the cap file with AFUNWINGUI, but it appears "9 - Error: Size of ROM file does not match the size of system ROM" like the screenshot above.

    If flashing will start at all. But if it start, it will not stop somewhere in the middle.
    And regarding your question about what will happen if the original BIOS is installed, I don't know what to expect from this.
    Yes.

    The same for the AFUWIN attached in the archive?

    Also, .CAP extension should mean it is capsule BIOS. Selecting the "Capsule" option in AFUWINGUI does not help? Or clicking "flash" again?

    The fact that AFUWINGUI terminates is a major problem, which, unfortunately, I do not know what to do.

    I appreciate you spent your precious time in helping me deal with the BIOS, teaching me how to use it, and patiently answering my basic questions.
    Thank you very much! Wish you all the best!
