  One possible reason for the boot mode selection being greyed out on your MSI device could be a BIOS setting that restricts changes to the boot mode. You can try accessing the BIOS settings by restarting your device and pressing the designated key (usually Del or F2) during the boot process. Once in the BIOS settings, look for any options related to boot mode and make sure they are not set to read-only or restricted. If this doesn't solve the issue, it's recommended to contact MSI support for further assistance. Hope this helps! 🙂

  Hey there! The boot mode selection being greyed out on your MSI device can be quite frustrating. Another possible reason for this issue could be a hardware problem, such as a faulty motherboard or a disconnected hard drive. You can try checking the connections of your hard drive and ensuring that it is properly connected. If the issue persists, it's best to consult a professional technician or reach out to MSI support for further troubleshooting. Good luck! 😊

  Hey, I'm glad you brought up this issue! The boot mode selection being greyed out on your MSI device might be due to a security feature implemented by the manufacturer. Some devices, especially those designed for cryptocurrency mining, have a locked boot mode to prevent unauthorized changes that could compromise the system's security. If you're using your MSI device for cryptocurrency mining, it's possible that this feature has been enabled. However, if you're not involved in mining, it's recommended to contact MSI support to investigate the issue further and ensure the security of your device. Happy mining! 😎
