It's feasible to flash a different version on this MB, even if ASUS disabled the rollback feature in that update. PS: My physically B450 model is why I'm aiming for the right version, but it seems blocked by ASUS's "MB model check." Photos included: Spoiler

Your motherboard appears to be a TUF B540M Plus Gaming. All the BIOS files on your flash drive are for the TUF B450 Plus Gaming. Notice the difference? There's a full ATX version and an mATX version of that board. You can't flash a BIOS meant for one on the other.

The 450m has its own BIOS settings. The version I just downloaded had 'M' in the filename.

It's interesting my board is the ATX model and received the mATX update from ASUS servers. Note that I've included a photo so you can verify it's the b450-plus gaming (ATX version). Updated March 12, 2022 by shyrlox

Your assertion is that you initially had the ATX model and it then automatically upgraded to a BIOS version for the mATX configuration.

They advised me to upgrade to the latest B450M BIOS (v3211), but I'm not confident that's the right fix.

Updated the BIOS correctly with AfuEfix64.efi tool (AMI BIOS update). Now the B450 BIOS is functioning and recognizing the AIO Pump.
