MSI ZH77A-G43 Board (misleading with the Z, not sure why MSI does this)
Intel i5-3350p
Sapphire HD 7870 ghz oc edition
Barracuda 7200rpm 500gb HD
So just finished my first build (kind of) and was wondering what updates i should be getting from the msi live update.
i built this system a few days ago with a different board and foolishly flashed the bios in windows mode, did not know how bad of an idea this was at the time and ended up bricking the board.
1.)so now im all set up again and i was just wondering which drivers i actually need, the bios does not have any issues at the moment, so i dont think i will touch that, however it would be nice to be able to make a bootable usb drive in case i do decide to update the bios anytime in the future, but im not sure how to do this and if its possible to mess my board up again.
2.)have the chipset from the cd, but msi's website has a newer one, however when i click to download i get a 404 error and cant get it from them. 9.4.0.1026 is the newest version it says, just not sure of a trusted way to get it besides the site which isnt working. if someone could point me to where i could get it that would be awesome
3.) with the MSI live update it shows
-MB driver : Intel ME Driver
Intel Smart Connect Technology
and bios which i dont want to update, (1.80 to 1.90)
- msi utility : Audio Genie
Control center
Click Bios II
which of these should i be getting/ not getting, does CLICK BIOS II require a flash of the bios or is it in any way risky to get? help will be appreciated! no overclocking for me either, 3350p with h77 board anyways, thank you!
