MSI has a tool to upgrade the BIOS. My motherboard is an MSI 880gm-e41.
At minimum I want to flash the upgrade that allows for 6 core CPU.
I have practiced with the tool and it runs successfully. But each time I return to check the version
there is no change either by number or date of issue. I have also checked this with the
CMD in Win7
I would pursue this at MSI but login is a daisy chain of repeatable steps
where I am always greeted as guest. I don't want to return there for this.
The USB device is a 16 GB Sandisk Cruzer that looks like a peanut.
I have been through all the steps of the upgrade tool as described.
The Sandisk shows formated to Fat32. It's bare and unbootable.
Is this a wrong size to do this job (larger than 4 GB?
Can a format of the USB be done to correct this with a partition.
Can I execute this in DOS with some careful guidance?
I'm out of ideas on what looks like an easy task that completes but shows no upgrade.
