Question No Raptor Lake support for MSI Z690-A?

[DreadBelch]

Maybe I'm missing something, but my MSI z690-a ddr4 mobo doesn't have a BIOS update for RPL on the MSI site. In fact, there are no Intel BIOS updates at all for my board on their site. Tried booting my new computer just now and the CPU light came on. My first thought was that my motherboard hasn't received the RPL update. MSI's customer support is having technical difficulties, of course. Any ideas? Msi.com/motherboard/pro-z690-a-ddr4/support

I see a bios released on 10/17. The one released on 7/4 says "Ready for next-gen CPU."

Thanks, I see it now. Was reading AMI BIOS as AMD BIOS on my phone. Probably time to update my prescription.

Do you already have a Raptor Lake CPU installed? Use MSI BIOS Flashback feature. You need BIOS version 1.70+ for Raptor Lake.

Yeah, everything's fine now. Used the flashback feature and got up and running. Thanks
