Take care when flashing your BIOS. Please post your feedback in the forum.*Olivier has pointed out that that this BIOS only partially resolves the issue – the VGA BIOS is no longer a engineering release but the VGA chip is still recognized as a NV17 and not a NV18.

As mentioned above and in the linked news article, this release ‘addresses’ the issue (also apparent on IGP boards from other manufacturers) and MSI are working on a fix. Sorry for any confusion there.
