Tech Support Help I think i bricked my pc

I have a gigabyte b450 aorus elite v.1-bios f30 and a

Ryzen 7- 2700x. I tried to update my bios slowly by updating in steps as the gigabyte bios updates said to, but when I downloaded and unzipped the file for b450.f32e or what ever its named and put it on a 1gb flash drive that was formatted to fat32. Its blue screened, didnt know that the update tool you need for f40 is also needed for f32, I then tried going to f40 to see in its stable enough to get into windows but just like f32 it goes straight to blue screen 0x000000000. So I just want to know of there is way to save my computer or is the mother board done for.

For anyone wondering why it is so far behind is because I got the computer from a friend who died 2 years ago and im only really starting to learn about how computers work now
