    ok, I got my brand new unlocked BIOS software installed (Yaaaay!)

    Thanks for that!

    The only thing I haven't been able to figure out is DMI for MSI BIOS.. I tried following instructions for AMI bios..

    I have the old bios saved

    If anyone wants to direct me on how to extract DMI from there, and apply to my new bios, I would be grateful

    ok, thanks @hoaca388

    and can I use this bios direct from MSI? or is that just an update, not full original bios?

    Can you help me identify which is the bios chip? Near the cmos battery is a flash storage that says winbond (blue box), and near the m2 is another MXIC MX (red box).

    On another model in this series I've seen it said the bios is near the m2... so I will assume that redbox MXIC is the bios... but I would love confirmation.

    and I need:

    MSI GS66 Stealth 10UH-091

    I recently purchased a used MSI GS66 with password locked bios.

    If I'm understanding correctly, I can fix this by re-flashing the bios. Except I need a copy of the original bios because the updates don't have complete information.

    Maybe I need to download my existing image and copy information (something something DMI) from there to the newest BIOS update downloaded from MSI?

    Or maybe I'm supposed to request for the original, if any has it unlocked can they send it to me?

    I'm tried following different threads here, but its confusing because MSI...
