Review on MSI MPG Z390 LGA1151 Motherboard by Shawn Reiter

Revainrating 2 out of 5

NO POSSIBILITY to enter BIOS, USB devices are not recognized.

After installing it, which was the usual amount of work, I couldn't get into the BIOS to update my hardware! It would just blow "DEL" and ask for a boot device! A LONG registration process resulted in ERROR 500, the server is busy. Try again later and then everything I did was reset. UPDATE: AFTER shorting out the CMOS with a jumper from the old EISA board and REMOVING the CMOS BATTERY, I've come to the conclusion that a PS/2 keyboard is required to get into the BIOS. Luckily I had such an old keyboard that I haven't reworked yet. Let's just say the manual for this board leaves a lot to be desired and EVERYTHING PS/2 needs is grossly inadequate.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
