Hey guys,

So I got a new MSI Z270I GAMING PRO CARBON AC and the bios is a few versions behind. I go to the support page, download the new bios versions, and extract them to a usb stick. When i load into bios and go to the m-flash option, it sees the usb stick but says its empty.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

the usb was ntfs. There arent any issues so far. Just wanted to keep it up to date. one of the changes in the update is compatability with samsung 960 evo m.2. Which is what im using. but it is running fine so far.

Try format it in fat32, m-flash should be able to read ntfs but sometimes it just refuses it, you can also try usb 2.0 or different flash drive, if its from different manufacturer or at least type it would be best.
