ok so I updated to latest 1.B aka v1.1. I updated it to install a 4790k but didn't realize I wasn't meant to use M flash
the system runs fine, but will not restart correctly. just blank screens

ive downloaded the forum flasher & made a bootable usb stick.
now im seeing NPT method etc & im lost on what to actually do? whats fast boot & win 8 options mean too, bios settings?

I have the 1.b file but will it still flash? I don't want to brick it

pls help!

edit I reflashed the 1.B file using the forum flasher & still have the same issue

system specs are

4790k
16gb gskill ddr3 1600, I have tried setting the ram to correct timings too
3x r9 280x
240gb corsair force 3
1000w EVGA P2

what else can it be? it ran fine before I updated the bios & changed the cpu

the good news for you is the Z87-GD65 has a second bios
you could just switch to that for the time being

Hi,

Quote:
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
    A.) Download the attached archive (E7888IMS_150.rar) and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
    B.) Download and install the Forum flash tool.
    C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
    D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
    E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
    F.) Boot to the USB from working bios.
    G.) Once it booted successfully switch to the bad bios without powering down or rebooting
    H.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash the bad bios with 1.5
      I.) After flashing reinstall ME drivers in Windows: http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_me10_mb.zip
Read few times if not understood

Ignore name of files mentioned in instructions, but use those from below.

But download latest OFFICIAL BIOS file from here:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=169827.msg1262015#msg1262015
[E7845IMS.160]
If you want, you can try latest :beta: which will be this one:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=169827.msg1308776#msg1308776
[E7845IMS.1B2]

If BIOS A is already bricked, you won't damage it by trying above.
