Hi, Can someone please help! I watched a YouTube video suggesting to update the bios via MSI Center. Now my PC doesnt turn on. Just the fans and lights turn on! Is there a fix to this?

Right - seems like your bios went kaput! THANKFULLY you have a bios flashback button on your board

#

This youtube channel will never be trusted again...omg..first he suggests this awesome way of updating bios then he tells everyone to join his discord to fix it..ugh

#

Awesome

#

I owe you a pint! Is this the cmos thingy?

worthy tundra Dec 25, 2023, 5:05 PM

#

Well, MSI Center might of just messed up the board

#

CMOS resetting ain't going to do much

vivid thicket Dec 25, 2023, 5:05 PM

#

Okay. How do i access the bios flashback button?

worthy tundra Dec 25, 2023, 5:06 PM

#

@light steeple Can you do bios flashback with CPU/RAM/ anything installed?

#

It is Christmas time so might of been stupid of me to ping a moderator

#

haha

#

I'll try see in a sec

vivid thicket Dec 25, 2023, 5:17 PM

#

Yup. This was my sons xmas present we just got from cyberpower. He is a little gutted. I think we were to keen on updating everything like windows etc.

#

He wanted to also try control the rgb liights so we tried to download msi mystic light. I think we are now going to stay away from msi software. Ugh...

Don't update bios if you experience no issues

vivid thicket Dec 25, 2023, 5:25 PM

#

Oh gosh...hopefully this will work

worthy tundra Dec 25, 2023, 5:30 PM

#

I just am not sure and because the bios is so fragile, not advising anything atm.

#

I don't want to be at risk of further damaging something.

serene ivy Dec 25, 2023, 5:31 PM

#

You can use BIOS flashback with stuff installed

#

Theres usually a port that says BIOS flashback on the back

worthy tundra Dec 25, 2023, 5:32 PM

#
