Hi,

I just bought new PC and I have B450 Tomahawk MAX. I was updating all drivers and I wanted to update BIOS as well. I must have misread the headline in heat of action and downloaded the non-MAX version. I entered the BIOS though del key and started procedure of updating BIOS. The screen went black and since then it didnt post.

I tried these solutions:
  1. I have tried to recover BIOS using this technique - https://service.msicomputer.com/msi_user/support/techfaqdetail.aspx?formid=3046
  2. I have also tried flashing BIOS by -

None of the above worked. My questions are:
  • Should I disconnect GPU/CPU/RAM?
  • With first solution should I get video though my GPU or DVI connection in mobo outputs (CPU is 3600x so no igpu there)
  • I used 3.0 usb 32GB - I read somewhere that it should be 2.0 and less than 16GB

What should I do ?
