Hey y’all, i recently had to rma my gs76 stealth after a hardware thing but when i got it back, my VR wouldnt work, i traced that to probably being a bios setting that got reset when the battery was removed, however, when i went into the MSI clickbios, it looked way different and i don’t even have the setting im looking for anymore. In fact i have way, way less options than i did before for bios settings, this seems like an older version of the bios, updating from usb to the version on their website just gives me the same bios, idk what’s happening.

for reference my bios used to look like this like this

and now it looks like this  like this

    I doubt it, this repair was just a keyboard assembly, I’ve done the repair myself, there’s no reason to replace the mobo, also the bios that’s listed in the downloads section is this old one. Which wouldn’t even be a problem if I still had the option to do certain things

      Ah it’s a laptop, I thought it was a desktop motherboard. That is strange, on a laptop I wouldn’t expect people to have to mess with the BIOS at all to make VR work, that’s usually a desktop thing to make sure rebar is enabled and stuff.
