I ran this on a MSI 7596 motherboard this one here -- Specification 760GM-E51

kept giving me grief trying to install the bios. Said not enough room on the usb drive and other things.
What finally did work, you have to put the ROM file in a folder on the usb drive. I had it in the root folder.
I may have had to select folder too on the usb or not but it did work.

I first saved the old bios to usb,
then upgraded the bios file and it takes about a minute.
It first erases the bios, then writes new bios into the chip.
USB drive format to fat or fat32 only. Not exFAT.
I kept this old Sandisk Cruzer 32mb usb as its useful for things like this.

After installing new bios file, you should power off and, on the machine, and look at specifically IDE, AHCI RAID setting as it always defaults to IDE.
And all the various drives the boot order gets changed.
