Hello,
I am in the process of building my first PC.
I have the MSI Pro Z690-A WiFi DDR4 mobo and an Intel 17-12700K CPU. On PCPP, it says "The MSI PRO Z690-A WIFI DDR4 ATX LGA1700 Motherboard supports the Intel Core i7-12700K 3.6 GHz 12-Core Processor with BIOS version 7D25v11. If the motherboard is using an older BIOS version, upgrading the BIOS will be necessary to support the CPU".
In my BIOS, it says I have BIOS version E7D25IMS.100, BIOS build date 09/14/2021. On MSI's website, it says that BIOS version 7D25v11 -- the one I need -- was released 12/13/2021.
Sadly, I already inserted the USB flash drive that has Windows 10 on it into my new PC -- I forgot to ensure I have the correct BIOS version first. Normally, I know you are supposed to right-click and eject a flash drive and get the "all good to unplug flash drive from computer" message. I don't see that happening at the moment, but will I simply be able to unplug the flash drive that has Windows 10 on it safely? Thanks for any help.
