CSME "System vulnerable" error and error "331" when trying to update ME firmware

230 Views

Hi, I'm hoping anyone can help me. I have an MSI Raider ge77hx laptop, which started acting strange: slowness, freezing, etc., so I decided to update the drivers. I got all the drivers from the official MSI website, first updated the BIOS, and when I checked the firmware, it says the system is vulnerable. When I tried to update it, it says "error 331: Full FW Update using the same version is not allowed. Include -allowsv in the command line to allow it."
The version the computer has is 16.1.27.2176, and the one I'm trying to update to is 16.1.27.2181.
I hope anyone can help me, because MSI told me to ask Intel, as the drivers are theirs.
