Question MSI Pro H610M-B doesn't work after i tried to update the BIOS ?

[Tievex]

So i have this PC that i wanted to upgrade so i bought this starter kit:

Mobo: MSI Pro H610M-B
CPU: i3-12100f,
RAM: 1 x16gb Cl12 3200mhz

After installing everything i saw that my internet was not working so i watched a tutorial from MSI on how to upgrade ur bios using mflash so i did just that and when i pressed the mflash feature from the bios my monitor stopped getting display and i tried resetting the cmos, cleaning the ram and it just does not give any output ?
the PC is running fine, fans are going, etc. I'm scared I've done something wrong and killed my new components..

So you tried to flash the BIOS instead of installing Windows and then installing the drivers from the CD? Why?

Also, are you aware you have a CPU without integrated graphics, as indicated by the f-suffix? If you have no GPU installed and the monitor connected to it, you won't ever get a picture from it since it's just not capable of producing one.

Windows was already installed and i don't have any CD slots. I wasn't getting internet so i tried upgrading the bios thinking that it would solve it. When i started my dummy ahh saw no hdmi output so i restarted my PC, that'd must've fricked with my bios, and do not find the bios flash butto, idk what to do

Of course not, you were lacking the chipset drivers for the new CPU and it's possible that Windows just had old configurations in registry etc that interfered, too. I didn't have internet at first, either, when setting up my Pro Z690-A and 12700k system. Same for my boyfriend. Neither nerded a BIOS update because the BIOS isn'tthe issue. I installed Windows completely fresh on a new machine, he did an upgrade of his existing system like you. Before upgrading a system, minimum you should do is downloading chipset drivers for the new chip from the mainboard manufacturer website and putting them on a USB drive before changing your board and CPU, amd uninstalling the old drivers. Best to also fresh install Windows, but the drivers are the most important.

The way it is now, you might have bricked that mainboard. Also, comparing it to the chematics of my mainboard, it doesn't look like you have a flash bios button.

Notice how it is labeled on the page for my board (second link) in the Detail tab pretty far down in the schematic, but not your board. So you could look for that forever...

Not sure if we can help you with this now. You might have to send the board in to either the seller or MSI to get either a new one, or this one fixed. But remember, download the chipset drivers to USB before any more attempts at updating BUOS without internet. And no turning off the computer during the update, ever!
