OK!
I updated my G-MA790X-UD4P from the @BIOS. First time went through the built in link to server and it SAID it was updating to the latest version (F9) but after going through all the hoops (and getting the same error message) I foind it actually only upgraded to the 5a BIOS.
Went back to the Gigabyte d/l site and got ver. 9 and then back to @BIOS to install it. Reset all my BIOS settings, booted up and then completed the install of XPMode without a hitch.
Its up and running as we speak.
