Firmware archive for the MSI GX740 gaming notebook, mainboard MS-1721. MSI designs its own laptop boards, and MS-17xx numbers cover its 17-inch models; the code appears on the PCB label. The archive likely contains a BIOS image for recovering a machine that powers on without display after a failed update, written with an SPI programmer. The name does not say whether EC firmware is included, so check the contents. Back up the original flash first and confirm the image matches the chip capacity.
