Beneath the keyboard of your MSI laptop lies a silent controller. You never see it work, but nothing functions without its permission. This controller is the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) , and for a specific family of MSI notebooks—including the popular GP-Series (like GP62, GP72) and some GL-Series models—the identifier is MS-16P61 VER 1.0 .

Before making any changes, always write down the current settings. And remember—if the laptop is stable and meets your needs, the best BIOS version is often the one you already have. Always refer to MSI’s official support website for your specific laptop model before performing any BIOS update.
