    Did you try completely powering down the machine? Remove the AC cord, remove the battery and then remove the bios battery (connected near the fan header). Leave it for a few minutes and then try booting it again. Otherwise if the MSI recovery combinations don't work you will have to send it in.

    As Meaker pointed out, a hard reset may get you back up and running. But you'll need to remove the system battery to actually get the BIOS reset.

    Why did you attempt the downgrade in the first place?

    Good luck with it!
