Hello Everyone,
I asked MSI Tech support for updates on the release date for the next BIOS update for MSI PRO X670-P WIFI for fixing POST times. He sent me a download link to try an unreleased version of BIOS from the BIOS team, and this version v1.51 is not even released to the public on the official support page for MSI X670-P-WIFI page https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/PRO-X670-P-WIFI/support. (The latest version of BIOS is v1.4)
After applying the BIOS v1.51 the MSI tech support gave me, my PC booted to Windows and began immediately Blue screening, I restarted the PC and it blue-screened again.
I tried going to BIOS, and the BIOS page literally froze. I had to force shut down my pc and restart again to get into the Flash BIOS by USB screen, and I was able to revert my BIOS back to v1.4
Could a failed BIOS update damage my motherboard permanently, even though I was able to revert my BIOS back to the working version?
And am I at fault for trying out a BIOS version that an official MSI support gave me?
Here's proof of my chat with MSI support, you can see he gave me the link for an unreleased BIOS version.
