tlpmap Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 I asked this question several months ago and tried several of the suggestions, but I still cannot enter the Bios. I have a custom built computer using a MSI motherboard (990FXA-GD80 with 24-GB mem running the latest version of Win-10 / 64). When tapping "delete" upon startup the message "Entering Setup" appears. The screen turns gray and that's it. Nothing happens. Unfortunately I have misplaced the MSI installation disk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, goto the MSI website and download the latest Motherboard FIRMWARE and flash the board. If you're already running the latest bios, I would still flash it to see if that clears up the issue for you. Something is obviously wrong. Here's a link to the BIOS - https://us.msi.com/Motherboard/support/990FXA-GD80.html#down-bios Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlpmap Posted March 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 Steve..... Thanks for the reply. I contacted MSI support and, after a lengthy conversation, was told that the motherboard needed to replaced. Also, went to the link you supplied and found that the download was to be used to flash the Motherboard when only using Win-8. I am running Win-10 Pro x64.

Steve Krause Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 @tlpmap Did they replace your MB or are you still having issues? Although it says it will only work with Windows 8, sometimes the FLASH will still work... You might try it if you're dead in the water..
