Thank you.........

Just because you didn't kill your 'mobo', doesn't mean the process is correct; you may have damaged ICs within the CMOS that you don't know about....... yet!
The normal jumper positions are 1-2, not 2- 3.
* MSI probably just put that 'Warning" in their manuals
just to scare everybody......... FWIW....
Ste.... You are 'clearing the CMOS and 'resetting the BIOS'
