I used the latest bios from that website and did not check their suggestion so ended up with bricked board.

is the bios on the MSI site, you won't find a better one, what programmer do you have? did you remove the bios chip from the board before writing?

with the clip you may have errors..it would be better to remove the chip from the board, or to glue wires between the programmer and the chip ..

I received today the programmer, i did use the file as you linked from the manufacturer website. I was able to write it for the first time, had no issue.

I was worried about EC chip (Don`t know what is that for yet) but that was fine.
