How do I update ME 7 to ME 8?

I am trying to update bios on MSI P67A-G45, going from ME7 to ME8, using the MSI Forum Bios Tool, and MSI 7673v51.zip bios. 
I created a boot flash drive as described on the forum help topic and when I boot from the USB I get three options
1 Run Memtest86+ V4.20
2 Update BIOS (I have not done this yet)
3 Restore Old BIOS
When I run membest86+ V4.20 I get message asking to run N5 and N7 test 20 loops each... and press a key to continue.
When I initiate the test, all I get is a blue screen with Memtest86+ V4.20 on top left corner.  The + is blinking, but nothing else is happening.
When I ran this first I had three mem sticks in the mobo, each 2gb.  So retarted the computer and the test with just 1 2gb stick.  The test is still geting hung as described above.
Am I doing something wrong?  Is there a special command I use call... I tried the "C", "1", "3", "5", "ENTER", "0" option to start N5 but that isn't doing anything either.
Thanks
Edit: I am running Clickbios memory test atm.
Edit: The clickbios mem test passed, but I decided to load memtest84+ v5.01 USB ready on my stick and test it w/ one ram stick.  I plan to flash with one stick.  Problem Solved.
So... I tried updating to previously mentioned bios (currently I have the V1.19).  I think I am going about this all wrong.  Essentially I need to update from ME7 (i3-2100) to ME8 (i5-3570K).  I misunderstood MSI download section and assumed I needed 7673v51.zip bios and would automatically allow me to use i5.  I am starting to realize that is not it.
From what i've read: >>https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=163549.msg1198800#msg1198800<< I don't quite understand how I am supposed to use the FPT.zip files. 
Do I just download the ME8 (not sure where to find it.. >>https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&keyword=management%20engine<< or which one to use and how to install it correctly).
Anyone here experienced with updating this mobo from ME7 to ME8 and wouldn't mind breaking it down how they did it?
Thanx.

Well, actually the ME download you found is just the Windows driver that will not help you run an Ivy cpu if staying at bios 1.9. Basically you just need the latest bios. Obviously you got confused by crossreading about different platforms. Also you can't use the forum tool with the file downloaded from MSI site as it is an .exe for an own (more risky) way of flashing. I prepared this now for flashing with the forum tool:
Download the attached and compressed archive to your desktop but do not decompress.
For BIOS Update >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<< => Mode 1: Point to archive file!
Then boot from the stick prepared by the tool and choose to update bios.
*NOTE: Make sure you unplug your PSU from A/C power and properly >>Clear CMOS Guide<< after flashing.
In  Windows install the Intel ME 8: Management Engine Driver (ME) after flashing. Use the following link to download it: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22092&keyword=management+engine&lang=eng

  • How can I update my app store account ?

    Hi, I have a new Iphone and I wanted to add some applications from apple store.
    Unfortunately, I had a message saying that I was using app store on a new device (true) and they needed to check some security thing from my visa card. Unfortunately, I had a new  card and do not have the previous one anylonger (the previous one expires in 1 year but had to be cancelled).
    Therefore I am blocked and cannot get into my account.

    In the future Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
    how can i update my table automatically at run time so tat, my table is
    updated whenever a new object is entered into vector..You don't update the Vector directly. You should be creating a method in your TableModel, called "addRow(...)". This method will do two things:
    a) add the Student object to the Vector
    b) invoke the fireTableRowsInserted(..) method of AbstractTableModel. This will cause the table to be repainted.

  • Steps to put itunes (50 gb) on external drive and delete from imac.  How would I update my ipods and ipad from the external drive if I do this

    I am planning to put itunes library on external hard drive. My Imac is running out of room and itunes is 50+ gb of music.
    What steps do I take to do this.  Also, if I do so, how do I update my ipods and my ipad 2.  I do back up my files with time machine.  This would be a completely separate new external hard drive.  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Two ways:
    1. After transferring to the external drive create an alias to the iTunes Music folder on the external drive.  Copy the alias into your Home folder.  Rename the alias to "iTunes Music."  Delete the alias from the external drive.
    2. In the iTunes preferences click on the Advanced icon in the toolbar.  You should see a field labeled, "iTunes Media Folder Location."  Click on the Change button and select the /iTunes Music/ folder on the external drive.

  • How do I update the software on my Airport Express?

    Hello everyone,
    I have an Airport Extreme base station acting as WDS and an Airport Express station. I recently upgraded the security on the Airport Extreme base station from 128-WEP to WPA (Personal), but I don't know whether I have to do something to the Airport Express base station. It's green light is on. Do I need to do something? Also, how do I update the software in the Express? Whenever I open the Airport Admin Utility, the only thing that comes up on a scan is my Extreme base station. Any advice would be most appreciated.

    yes you need to update your Airpost Express. I just went through this last week with two of my Airport Expresses. I updated my Base and my Remote's light was green but was unable to view it in Airport Admin Utility. So this is what I ended up doing and it works great.
    First bring the Airport Express you are working on in the same room as your computer......just the ease of seeing what is going on with the Airport Express. Next you need to reset it.....take a paper clip and push in the little button next to the Audio port and hold in 10 seconds. Then unplug the unit wait 10 seconds and plug it back in. wait about 3 minutes and then you will need to use Airport Set Up Assistant. You will need to make sure you have WPA Personal on your Airport Express too.
    don't forget to make sure you have the update firmware too.

    How do i update the software on my ipod touch? i went to settings, then general, but theres no option called software updates.

    You needing to be running iOS 5 or later in order to do a Software Update from the device.  To run iOS 5 you need a 3G or 4G iPod Touch.  So if you really have a 4G iPod Touch, connect it to iTunes and you should be prompted about an update to its version of iOS.
