    I killed half of a day trying to understand why my m-flash on MSI b450 doesnt even "see" my usb drive.I tried everything,formatting to fat32,switching different modes in BIOS etc etc(16 gb usb btw).After reading that it is probably because of the "bad" usb drive i already thought of going and buying a new one(and that would be in vain).And only after i found your video and watched it-everything worked like a charm(particularly converting to mbr solved everything is what i think)!So thank you very much,sir!You are a lifesaver!

    This video is a God send!
    I was having trouble flashing my bios, and by EXACTLY following the steps outlined in this video I solved all of my problems.
    One note that I would like to add for owners of the Asus Rog Strix B550-F Wifi: apparently there are two versions of this board. One is simply named "B550-F Wifi" and the other is named "B550-F Wifi II".
    I had the "II" version but kept downloading the new bios for the other version and wondering why it wouldn't work. Then my brain finally noticed the "II" on the end of the motherboard name, so I searched for the bios for that version and when I tried it, everything worked.
    So, if you own this motherboard, take note of what version you have. Apparently the bios is different between them.

    • @yoMamsLover
      @yoMamsLover 2 года назад

      I have the same problem. The difference is i only find bios for b550-f wifi, not the ii, which i also own. Where did you find the ii version, cause i m at asus's site and i cant find this bios version. Its as if both mboards have the same bios

    • @yoMamsLover

    So happy I found this tutorial. Have an MSI Pro z690-A WiFi motherboard that needed a new BIOS to see a i7 13700k. I had no other CPU to use. I had tried several flash drives new and old. Ive been cleaning, partitioning and formatting flash drives for HOURS!!! What eventually got it to start flashing was doing everything in the tutorial AND only making a 200MB MBR partition using just FAT table formatting. I had been trying to get this to work for 3 hours and was ready to return the brand new motherboard and buy a Z790 board. Many thanks !!! 😊

    Just gonna leave this here for anyone who was searching like me:
    IF you have a Gigabyte A320M-S2H board and you’re looking to update to F55, (Or any new version past F40) you NEED to update to version F32 beforehand as there was a major update to allow for better BIOS updates for all future versions. Hope this helps and this video is a big help with teaching you about partitioning :)

    For the people with Asrock z690 Phantom Gaming 4 or similar that have this issue. I have been going at it for 2 hours and it turns out the manual is wrong... It has circled the wrong port as a bios flashback port. Try the lower one if on your manual it also shows the port that is under the ethernet port.

    • @wyldtwyst
      @wyldtwyst 2 года назад +1

      Stefan - thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe this - the Flash Bios Button is right above the top left USB port on my rear I/O panel, but when I read your comment I checked around the Ethernet port and found a totally different port labelled "Flash BIOS." That seems so simple but it's not intuitive design at all. It is working now, partitioned at 500MB in FAT format. BTW anyone reading this, I don't even have the same mobo as Stefan, mine is MSI MPG Z690 Force WiFi.
      I have a ticket open with MSI where I am going to suggest they update the user manuals and desk guides that they have published on the website.

    TLDW :
    diskpart
    select disk X
    clean
    convert mbr
    and then create a fat32 partition on the usb stick using disk management.
