Hey guys,
I made the mistake of buying an hp without realizing the very limited bios that it has. The motherboard is a MSI MS-7778. I have searched for a bios that I can flash to rid myself of the limitations and am unable to find a solution. it is an AMI bios version 8.11. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks
hp p7-1446s bios update

The board used is this one:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/docu ... 43058#N100
Which has no retail equivalent, so there's no starter bios to work from. I fear you just made a wrong choice, prefab systems are usually not for tinkering.
The best you can do is bring it back to the shop under warranty and build your own.

You're welcome. The trouble is those boxes are so very cheap that many people fall for them only to find out they really bought a ready-made box, not an actual computer they can customize to their likings...
