Beware: new AM5 bioses add memory training expiration

Yes. That’s what the OP said :sweat_smile:

Very weird then it doesn’t support loading profiles from previous versions of BIOS.

What’s the model name of your MSI motherboard?

It’s a bit more complicate than you think

Because OEM BIOS has very few knobs for turning. To the extreme like Mac, zero turnables, hence no BIOS menu at all.

Sorry, but that is just a cheap excuse. There is nothing different between an Asus mobo and a Dell mobo. If you can’t handle the complexity like Supermicro, just own it that you are lazy and make a simpler BIOS with less nobs.

It really isn’t and there are many companies proofing it is easy.
If you can’t do that you probably should not be in the mobo business.
To be fair, Asus is more in the marketing, LED and “printing stupid slogans on boards” business, than in the mobo business itself :grin:

What MSI motherboard? So that people can verify your experience.

Also your comment just showed ignorance. Apparently you haven’t done any low level programming.

MSI PRO Z790-P
MSI PRO B850-P

If all the others can do it, while you can’t do the same thing, it is most likely a YOU problem. Not because low level programming is hard. Which it is.

And, for that reason, reading and writing settings isn’t going to be an assembly component. It’ll be a yet another mundane bit of glue code on the C++ side of the BIOS.

Since all the BIOSes I’m aware of load profiles from USB the point of contention is really whether to filter by originating BIOS version when presenting the user with the list of profiles available. That’s the difficulty of not implementing the single clause if statement doing the version check.

It’s weird how determined people can be to mystify this rather than accept simpler explanations.

They do. The B850s can see and apply profiles from the other board. Profiles from 3.30 and 3.26 were also accessible. Did a B650 Steel as well, which didn’t show its previous 3.25 profile as available for load.

So I’m curious of other 600 and 800 board’s behavior.

first post is a copy. probably a bot.

And X670E Pro RS could see its 3.25 profile after flashing 3.40 but applying it had no effect. So I got to type everything in again. :roll_eyes:

So, you’re tell us that the BIOS recognized that the previously saved profile data from an earlier version BIOS image was invalid and refused to load it. Thanks for clearing that up!

Nope. Also moved to ignore again, for longer this time.
