Hey y’all, i recently had to rma my gs76 stealth after a hardware thing but when i got it back, my VR wouldnt work, i traced that to probably being a bios setting that got reset when the battery was removed, however, when i went into the MSI clickbios, it looked way different and i don’t even have the setting im looking for anymore. In fact i have way, way less options than i did before for bios settings, this seems like an older version of the bios, updating from usb to the version on their website just gives me the same bios, idk what’s happening.

for reference my bios used to look like this like this

and now it looks like this like this

    Nowadays windows will update UEFI and firmware for many devices through windows update. Most users have no idea what a UEFI is or how to manually check and update device firmware, so this is a big win for security. Linux users can do the same with fwupd which comes installed on many popular distros and is integrated into the software manager apps from Gnome and KDE, making the experience largely the same.
