When you need to find drivers or a BIOS update for an MSI motherboard or graphics card, MSI Live Update gathers available updates in one place. Run a search from the main screen to see items matched to the hardware in your system.
A scan for MSI updates
MSI Live Update searches for available drivers and displays the results in its interface. It can also surface BIOS updates and utilities for the MSI system, so drivers and firmware are handled from the same update workflow.
The results are selected with the installed hardware in mind. This is especially relevant for motherboard and graphics card updates, where the correct match depends on the components in the PC.
How do you choose what to install?
After a search, choose which available items to install. MSI Live Update supports selecting updates individually, so a user can mark one driver without applying every item shown.
- Search from the main screen to find available updates.
- Review the driver results and select specific items.
- Use the BIOS update workflow for available motherboard firmware updates.
Driver and BIOS maintenance
The tool brings MSI driver searches and BIOS updates into a single interface. That gives motherboard and graphics card owners one place to check for supported updates, instead of locating each driver separately.
MSI Live Update is designed around MSI components. Its search results are tied to the hardware it recognizes, and it does not provide an update catalog for unrelated manufacturers.
