Just got my MSI lightning 680. But unfortunately its one of the newer ones with the locked bios.
Ive downloaded nvflash 5.118 but when i go to run in from cmd prompt i get the following message " cannot run or start nvflash.exe because of 64bit something something "
Im following this guide :
To flash the BIOS, download the latest version of nvflash here.
extract the nvflash files to C:\
save the BIOS file to C:\
open elevated cmd window (hit start button, type "cmd", right click cmd icon, run as administrator)
change directory to C:\ (type " cd C:\ " )
OPTIONAL: type " nvflash --protectoff " then hit enter (turns off any error msg that may result from software write protection)
BACKUP ORIGINAL BIOS: Type " nvflash -b backup.rom " and a copy of your bios will be saved to the nvflash directory
type " nvflash -4 -5 -6 680L_UnlockedBIOS.rom "
wait for it to finish
reboot
OPTIONAL: reinstall drivers
Anybody know what im doing wrong?
