So i have a B450 Tomahawk and updated BIOS to latest version, from their website. I installed a 3700x correctly, and now its not finding any signal to the TV. Reading a few comments on there, a few people have this issue, and somebody told 1 of them there won't be any more BIOS for these boards...

Back, so i managed to use EFI BOOT, from the MSI boards to start updating my BIOS, and got to https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B450-TOMAHAWK 7C02v15 There was no V16, so i put V17 on the EFI BOOT. It was reading the flash drive and said it never recognised the ROM, or something, so...

As soon as i hit M-Flash, there is no option to click on the USB stick, it just reboots into Flash Mode! This is where i can see the DIR, but no updates. I'll try the 8GB stick anyhow, and report back in a few days.

Give it a go, still no luck. Ordered a new 8GB USB 2.0 stick. Weird how we need ancient technology to upgrade our machines. Like ive even had to hook up a wired keyboard, from the 90's. Sigh.

Sorry, i missed this whilst testing, will give it a go.

I tried both, a few times. Changed its name as well.

Just my luck, there is none for msi b450 tomahawk. I did try this one a few times now - 7C02v18, still no luck. Might be my 32gb USB stick, or I might need to update my BIOS, as its only 1.2 atm and im not sure how to update the BIOS to 1.3, then 1.4 etc, till I'm on the latest version. There...

Tried everything so far, still no luck. I had a quick look on MSI's site for updates to my BIOS, but can't find the correct ones. Do i update 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, etc? Or is there 1 big one that can update 1.2 to the latest? Thanks again.

Not got one at hand, will need to buy one, any to reccomend? I did get 2 flash drives for stuff like this, but never knew about the size till about 2 hours ago...

Back, still no luck. It loads up M-Flash It shows my drive date and time system volume information(which i click and there is two dots.) I tried to rename it as well before formatting, but it said it can't use those chars, how do i change its name?

I did yeah, but it woulndt let me pick one right away, the pc restarted and loaded up flash mode. Might be because my BIOS is older/newer than the one in the video.

I'll rename and format to NTFS, just to be sure. Thanks for the help all. Hope you all enjoy your new CPU's.

Really? Hahhaha, read Fat32 everywhere. I'll give it a try now, thanks.

Yep, Fat32; tried a few times now. It loads the M-Flash, it sees the USB drive, but its not showing the update. Its in the root, as well.

There was that earlier update earlier in the year - 7C02v17 "Description - Support new upcoming AMD cpu. " I just thought that would be for the APUs

New to these forums. Just tried joining MSI forums, but they won't even activate my new proifle, checked spam as well. I downloaded the latest BIOS, for Tomahawk b450 from their website, stuck it on a 32GB USB drive which was formatted as Fat32...
