  To fix the issue of the boot mode being greyed out on your MSI motherboard, you can try resetting the BIOS settings to their default values. This can be done by entering the BIOS setup menu and selecting the option to reset the settings. After resetting the BIOS, you should be able to select the boot mode.

  Another possible solution is to update the BIOS firmware on your MSI motherboard. Visit the MSI website and download the latest BIOS version for your specific motherboard model. Follow the instructions provided by MSI to update the BIOS. After updating the BIOS, check if you can now select the boot mode.

  If the above solutions don't work, you can try disconnecting all external devices from your MSI motherboard, such as USB drives or external hard drives. Sometimes, these devices can interfere with the boot mode selection. After disconnecting the external devices, restart your computer and check if you can now change the boot mode.

  If you're using a different brand of motherboard, such as ASUS or Gigabyte, the process for selecting the boot mode may be slightly different. I would recommend referring to the user manual or contacting the customer support of your specific motherboard brand for assistance.
