You just received a 5900x motherboard. You're having trouble getting your new CPU to work and aren't sure where to find the BIOS for your board. It's frustrating since you've tried a couple of solutions without success. The BIOS info is usually on the MSI website, but it can be tricky to locate because MSI uses different naming conventions. You might want to check the official MSI support page or contact their customer service for guidance.

which version should you install? You don’t want to keep restarting your computer repeatedly. You’ve already tried two options, both failed—just turned on and off quickly. I’ve replaced the CPU with an R7 3700X, which is working now. Thanks for understanding.

B550 comes with full 5900x support right away, no BIOS changes required. Confirm your motherboard model is B550, not B450.

Save the most recent bios, typically located at the top. If you can access the bios, update it there. Otherwise, the motherboard manual should explain how to flash the BIOS back, which may allow a new bios to be uploaded without using the CPU. This often involves renaming the bios file to a specific format as described in the manual.
