I purchased a new Ryzen 3700X to replace my 2600X. The motherboard supports it, and I saved the BIOS file onto a USB stick after formatting. The files appear but the BIOS doesn’t show up. After extracting and reformatting, I’ve tried various solutions but nothing works. I’m attempting to run the PC with my old CPU so I can keep using it. I need an alternative method. I have an MSI B450 Gaming Plus, a Ryzen 3600X, and a 32GB USB drive from a brand of your choice.

Review the guidelines for updating the BIOS on the MSI website. Examine the Flash drive's characteristics to identify its filesystem—often Fat32 or NTFS are common. Note that swapping has occurred before.

After extracting files and placing the BIOS in the root folder, you should verify the installation and ensure all necessary files are present.

Ensure 2600x is present on the board. Navigate to BIOS settings, then access the MFlash section. Choose the flash BIOS configuration option.
