I tried to update the BIOS in my PC. Now, the CPU light turns on the motherboard which means there is a problem. Before, only one of my RAM slots worked. I searched up and found that maybe if I updated the BIOS it would work. Now when I turn on the PC, the CPU light is on and nothing happens.

if you tried to use the windows updater and it failed download from another pc b8 bios zip file. unzip it and on a fat32 formated usb stick put it on the root of the stick. plug the stick in and clear the bios. it may take 20 min or more for the mb to try and recover. if try and use the dos ami flasher.

version 5 see if you can relash the bios if not see if msi can send you a new bios chip some can be pulled and swapped.
