UEFI freezes when trying to update BIOS

[mfjaages]

I am trying to update my BIOS on my ROG Crosshair VI so I can install a new processor on it.  However when I go to "read the update, in the tool tab in the BIOS, the UEFI screen freezes up and locks up.  I have been trying to find a similar issue with someone else through my searches and I am getting nowhere.  Has anyone experience this issue? I have disconnected all the peripherals, components, reseated the processor, and removed the battery from the board. I have tried updating it through the available internet link in the UEFI, and through a USB stick, to no avail.
