As of right now, some of the newer bios's for intel platforms need to have the ME version flashed as well as the bios. In order for this to happen, you need to do one of two things.
1.) Ask for us to provide a bios w/ a necessary file to use the forum flasher. (This is included with all applicable beta bios's.)
2.) Use M-Flash with ME the MSI recommended way, but one that seems prone to bricking one of your bios's.
Also, after the bios is flashed, you need to install the most recent ME drivers inside of the OS.
>>MSI Downloads<<
This is all applicable to all LGA 1155 and 2011 socketed boards.
In regards to all LGA 1150 mainboards.
In order to properly flash both the bios and me extension it is recommended to use FPT. (attached)
Just place the program and fp parts on a dos bootable usb stick along with the bios.
Syntax:
fpt -f xxxxx.xxx -savemac
Warning: This version of FPT will brick previous board generations. This is only for use with LGA 1150 Mainboards.
All flashing is done at your own risk!
In regards to previous board generations, please continue using the forum flash tool and archives here on the forums.
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
>>BIOSes<<
FPT for Dos may be downloaded here:
