Hey everyone, I have a really specific question which I am unable to find anywhere on the internet !
I got a motherboard with it's own bios design and boot setup too, can any of you guys help me getting the old gray and blue phoenix original bios back, because I need to do some things in here, but my motherboard's bios doesn't have certain settings.
Thank's !!

I know the exact model (MSI Z-87-G55) as I built the computer myself. What am I supposed to do next (thank's for the answer !)

Just so happens, I used to have that same board. Now a relative of mine has it.
The only BIOS you can use is the ones that are listed for that specific board. Normally, you would want the latest BIOS. But I suppose you could roll back to one of the earlier ones (at your own risk).

There shouldn't be anything missing from the oldest to the newest BIOS. Added maybe, but not deleted. You don't by any chance have a pre-built PC with a proprietary version of that board, do you? What BIOS version do you have now?

Hey, in fact there's something that I think is missing, I have the lastest bios from this motherboard, about proprietary version I don't think so.
So the missing thing is, in my bios in boot options I only have booting with "UEFI" or "UEFI + LEGACY" and in phoenixBios from what i've seen, you can launcher without UEFI, which I obvioulsy can't. And I kinda need this :/

By "proprietary" I meant from a pre-built PC like Dell, HP, Gateway, Acer, etc. Their BIOS would not necessarily be the same (or work) with a retail version of the same board.

UEFI or UEFI + Legacy is all I've ever seen on modern boards. And that will depend on how the disk your OS was installed on was formatted. What are you needing to do that can't be done with those options?
