    Are you trying to make your Monster notebook into a MSI GP76 Leopard?
    It may be the same MS-17K3 mainboard but some of the components may be different. Both bios & ec may be customized.
    Have you already flashed the MSI bios?

    In the 8th cpu CFL TYPE11 TOOL folder there should be a file called UNLOCK.cmd. Run that first as it should unlock DMI/SMBIOS for writing. MSI enables/disables features though those DMI/SMBIOS Type 11 strings.

    @Anborn, maybe boot in legacy & try setting it under dos using amidedos.exe
