Frequently asked questions

Which laptops use the MS-17G1 motherboard?
File names in the catalog tie MS-17G1 to the MSI GS75 and MSI 17G11. Laptops sold under one model name can use different boards, so confirm by the code printed on the motherboard.
Which revision of MS-17G1 do I have?
Files for this board mention Rev 1.1. The revision is printed on the PCB silkscreen, usually next to the board code. Pick files with the same revision when you can; if yours is not listed, the closest revision is usually fine for the schematic but check part positions in the boardview carefully.
How do I open the MS-17G1 boardview file?
The boardview for MS-17G1 is available as .BDV and .CAD. .BDV usually opens in OpenBoardView (free) or FlexBV. .CAD usually needs FlexBV or the matching viewer. See What Is a Boardview File and Why You Need One.
What should I check before flashing the MS-17G1 BIOS?
Read the original chip with a programmer and save two copies before writing anything. Some archives include EC/KBC firmware, which may need to be written to a separate chip. A dump from another board carries that board's serial number and MAC address, so restore yours from the backup.
