MSI Strike 600 dead after updating firmware in MSI Center

[definitelyacrazyma15bd02e8]

Hey everyone. I tried updating my Strike 600 some weeks ago in MSI Center, it was like that for 30 minutes in a loop so I unplugged the keyboard and plugged it back in. It doesn't work now, as the firmware is corrupt. Does anyone have any methods for fixing this?

When you say 'firmware' do you mean the BIOS?

I don't know, but the keyboard is fully bricked. Nothing works, not the lights, not a single key - MSI Center said "Updating firmware...." and that's all.

Does the PC still detect the Keyboard
If so, it may be able to be reflashed

Checked this some time ago, let me see.

It doesn't in MSI Center and it gets detected as a USB Input Device only in Device Manager.

detected as a USB Input Device only in Device Manager.

This may be a good thing

As to the MSI Centre, it does not matter as long as it is seen by the PC

PM me a pic of the keyboard serial number and model sticker, and I will see if there is a standalone flash tool.
