    Search for the gt780 here:
    MSI Global ? Download Center

    You will find the bios.

    I cant tell you if it will work on the barebone or not (I think yes, but dont blame me if your notebook dies).

    Which one do you have??

    Is it the GT780DXR OR the MS-1761. If it is the MS-1761 barebone, then DO NOT flash the BIOS moral_hazard posted, it is for the retail gt780dxr only. There is no unlocked BIOS for the 780DXR currently, sorry.

    Yup, haven't tried tinkering with the bios. Just got one problem, either the original or mod bios, still can't get the corsair force gt to work with my laptop, do you have any experience with this kind of stuff?

    No, sorry. I use a Kingston V100 SSD (Toshiba controller). I see you have made a new thread, good luck!
