No, but you should if you haven't already. I think GigaByte probably
gets its BIOS from another BIOS vendor (maybe Intel), so when that
vendor provides them with an update, they'll probably provide it on
their website. And from what I understand, an Intel BIOS update is in
the works to address this issue for Intel boards, so a GigaByte version
may follow shortly. I don't have an exact timeframe though...
