B55-A

Did you make the typo?

 

Is this the ASUS B550-A, or the MSi B550-A?

ok so i got the usb in and the lushly started to blink and now it’s just a solid green 

 

Sorry, just got caught up with message from work (after work hours).

Just make sure you are using the CORRECT USB port on the back.

The USB stick should be EMPTY with JUST the renamed BIOS file -- it should not be in a folder or something.

BIOS version 2403 and 2006 would be the latest non-BETA releases.
