Good evening,
I ordered a new graphics card: the RX5700XT from AMD, and while waiting for it to arrive, I thought I would prepare the ground, so I installed a BIOS update for my motherboard: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/H310M-PRO-M2
I placed the extracted BIOS file from the zip file onto my blank USB stick formatted to FAT32 and launched the BIOS in flash mode. The problem is, when I try to perform the update, it detects the USB stick but not the BIOS file. I also tried with another USB stick or formatting this one to NTFS.
I found no solution.
Can you help me?
Thank you and have a good evening,
Silenzay

Hello
is it the zip file " 7B28vAB.zip "?
and the bios file " E7B28IMS.ABO "?

Yes, indeed, but I just pasted the .ABO file onto the USB stick and there was no folder, just the ABO file. My current version is EB915IMS.C10. Do I need to first install a version that is newer than what I currently have but older than the latest version?

Good evening, is this method risky? Because I really don’t want to make a wrong move or have to change the motherboard because of it. And what if the BIOS doesn’t recognize any files on the USB stick or if it is unusable? Do you think it is useful to update my BIOS if I don’t have any problems or if I’m not changing the CPU?
Thank you and have a good evening,
Silenzay.

Otherwise, can I try to update my BIOS from this one by directly renaming the file on the USB stick to MSI.ROM?

If the GPU does not require a BIOS update, no, you do not need to update it
PS: I checked the manufacturer's website for your motherboard, and I do not see any BIOS dated April 27, 2018, nor the version you provided --> My current version is EB915IMS.C10
The closest date you mentioned is --> 7B28vA2 from 2018-04-03
They are all versions --> E7B28IMS + the description of the version
The page of the manufacturer's site --> click here
As for the update via the Flash BIOS button, there are such comments under the video (with 1 response from MSI France)

Is there a risk of flashing the BIOS?
I have an MSI B450 Gaming Plus and I would like to install my Ryzen 3600X on it but I do not have a first or second generation processor to perform the BIOS update

Hello. With this motherboard model, you can perform a flash without a processor using the Flash BIOS button. To do this, you first need to download version 7B86v18 of the BIOS from the page https://fr.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B450-GAMING-PLUS#support-cpu. Then, rename the file to MSI.rom and save it to the root of your USB drive (only FAT32 drives are compatible with Flash BIOS). Connect the power supply to the CPU_PWR1 and ATX_PWR1 connectors (no other components are needed). Connect your USB drive containing the MSI.rom file to the Flash BIOS port located on the rear I/O panel. Press the Flash BIOS button. The LED next to it will start flashing. Once the flashing procedure is complete, the LED will stop flashing.
Why not contact MSI France to inquire
