MSI Big Bang Trinergy Memory problem.....

I recently purchased a Bing Bang Trinergy mobo. It's combined with an Intel i3 540 cpu and 2 Kingston KVR1333D3N9/2G ram modules. The mobo came with BIOS 1.1 version. When I've tried to update the BIOS to any version above 1.1 (1.2, 1.3, 1.4) and DUAL MEMORY CHANNEL is used, the system rans to slow, jerky sound immersed (can't play any video), the cores show above 60% load all the time, playing games is impossible (system hangs or blue screens appears), takes ages to load win7 Ultimate. I've tried everything, manual setting the timings of the ram, voltage, command rate 2N, nothing works. I've also test the system with 2xKINGSTON KHX1600C9AD3B1/2G ram modules but the same results obtained. I've checked all possible positions in dual channel mode, nothing. When only one module is used (single channel) then everything is ok. All the ram modules passed the memtest and verified for the their good working state.
The strange thing is that when the BIOS 1.1 version is used everything runs smoothly. BIOS update was perfomed with 2 different ways : 1. MSI windows application and 2. in DOS mode. Also the sound card (if God makes it a soundcard) sometimes worked and sometimes didn't.

The course of action seems clear. Revert & use 1.1.
This thread may have some good advice; https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=141272.0
Recommend to open a ticket with MSI Tech Support detailing your findings. They may be able to duplicate everything & address it in an updated bios. For bios flashing, it is highly recommended to use this forum's USB Flasher. You can find it along with instructions in the Download Section of the forum. It is also always recommended to do a 'power cord removed' from PSU clearining of CMOS after a flash.

  • MSI BIG BANG TRINERGY dual channel problem!

    Hey forum, I just installed a newly bought msi big bang trinergy. Everything went according to plan except from the point where I installed the 4gb (2x2gb) ram dimms( I have the XMS3, 4gb kit by Corsair).
    Let it be noted that i followed the instruction manual and installed the dimms in the proper slots. Then when the moment of truth came and powered up my pc, it wouldnt boot. It would go into an endless restart cycle without booting. Then i unplugged the dimm3 and started only using dimm1 and everything went well. I also switched the ram dimms (in case one of them was faulty) and placed it in dimm1 and again there was no problem.
    My take on this situation is that there must be some hardware problem concerning DIMM3. I also run a BIOS update in hopes that something might change but no luck.
    ..So what is your take on this?
    Thank you in advance for the advice.
    P.S Since i had a P55 mobo before Big bang i read that format is not necessary so i didnt format the pc. Can that be the cause of the dual channel mal-function?

    Nope.
    There are a couple of explanations for the behaviour:
    1) there is a problem with the modules
    2) the memory slot itself or underlying circuits is/are defective
    3) there is a short circuit problem somewhere inside the case which basically blocks that particular memory slot
    4) the CPU (or its memory controller) is defective
    5) there is some sort of pin-contact problem [bad contacts between the board's socket pins and the contact pads of the processor], caused by bent or broken pins or by too much pressure exerted by the CPU's heatsink
    I would start poking at explanation 3) by testing the board outside the case on a non-conducting surface in barebone configuration and, in case that does not change anything, go for number 5): take off the heatsink and inspect both socket pins and contact pads for any irregularities [use a magnifying glass!]
    I went to a technician to check the mobo where we tried different memory modules and cpu (100% working ) on a bench table.The pins on the mobo were not bent or anything. We checked all the points you mentioned that needed to be checked but still the problem persisted so it was a memory slot problem. Thanks for all the help! Really appreciate it, the replaced mobo works perfectly 

  • MSI Big Bang Trinergy Pre-Order questions?

    On this page it says
    http://event.msi.com/mb/bigbang/preorder/
    "All those who pre-order the MSI Big Bang-Trinergy motherboard between Nov 30 and Dec 15 are qualified to receive exclusive gaming bundle. Besides, MSI will protect your new purchase with 8-year Exclusive Warranty! "
    Then when I go here
    http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/Special/MSI_BigBangTrinergy_120709.jsp?intpromo=MSI_BigBangTrinergy_120709_HPG
    Which is the USA pre order place it says
    Dec 7 and Dec 21st
    So which is it?
    Also when it says Register for 8 year warranty it says serial number.  How do I know my serial number if I have not received the product yet?  Also when is this thing being released?  I just want to make sure if I pre order I get the 8 year warranty.  I already have the gd80 but I really want this board for the warranty and the extra features.  Thanks guys.

     It seems to me you pre order and then you register it with the serial number after you receive the product to get the 8 year warranty.
    Products have to be registered within 30 days from original date of pre-order purchase to receive our limited 8 years warranty. (Products failed to register within 30 days will still receive standard 3 years warranty).
     A little extra research by you would have come up with this same little tidbit of information.

  • Memory modules for Msi Big Bang trinergy

    Hey forum,
    i want to buy some memory modules for my trinergy mobo because the ones i had earlier also proved to be incompatible. I would like to ask you if there are any memory modules besides the ones recommended from the MSI site concerning my mobo. I am looking for a 2x2 gb ram kit with a heat dispenser so it can work around 1600mHz. Thank you in advance 
    P.S Is the list on the site the only one? i mean are there any updated versions of it with more high end memory modules tested?

    Ideally you would provide us with your fullsystem specs first >>Posting Guide<<
    From a memory perspective, the reason these modules have heatspreaders is mostly due to marketing and to impress the potential buyers. The secondary reason is that most manufacturers sell you overvolted and overclocked 1066 or 1333 chips on a 1600 marketed module that needs 1,65V instead of the standard 1,5V. Your memory controller is part of the CPU and natively only supports 1333 at 1,5V.
    If you really insist, then at least get yourself a 1600 kit that does this speed at 1,5V. One of the modules that seem to work well are the CMZ4GX3M2A1600C9 from Corsair. From a user perspective, the mem modules from Crucial that you see in my signature come highly recommended as they have been proven to work on the P55 platform whenever used.

  • Big Bang Trinergy - Freezes on boot & randomly

    Hi,
    Got a Big Bang Trinergy (BIOS 1.40) and been having problems since the first day I installed it.
    It freezes several times in the boot-sequence. Manual restart is needed and several attempts are made before it successfully launches and loads Windows.
    It seems to have problems synchronizing the hard drives, since a lot of times they react as they where server-drives and not locally installed on my computer. (Note that I have disabled the Win7 feature of putting the hard drives in sleep mode).
    I also have major problems with the screen not showing anything when trying to boot. When it doesn't show anything, it also do not continue the boot sequence and I am forced to do a manual reboot (cutting the power or holding down the PWR switch).
    On rare occasions when I'm actually able to load Windows 7 and start using the computer, it sometimes just freezes and stays that way. No blue-screen (most of the times), no errors or automatic reboot - nothing.
    I did get blue-screen once and got the following error-codes from Windows the next time I was able to load the OS;
    Problem signature:
      Problem Event Name:   BlueScreen
      OS Version:   6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.48
      Locale ID:   1053
    Additional information about the problem:
      BCCode:   116
      BCP1:   FFFFFA8006C7A4E0
      BCP2:   FFFFF880105CCC88
      BCP3:   FFFFFFFFC000009A

      OS Version:   6_1_7600
      Service Pack:   0_0
      Product:   256_1
    Haven't found anything about this on the Internet though.
    Would be very thankful for any advice or/and help I can get.
    Thanks again in advance!

  • MSI big bang xpower ii memory problems

    Hello! I wasn't sure where to post this question, so If it is in a wrong subforum please forgive and transfer it to the correct one.
    Story is, I have msi big bang xpower ii motherboard, runnig 3930k, c1 cpu. I have two memory sets, both tested extensively, 1) gskill ripjaws 2133 32gb 4x8 (one matched set), 9/11/10/28 1.65v and 2) gskill ripjaws 1600 16gb 4x4gb 9/9/9/24 1.5v, also one matched set.
    I updated bios to 1.2 (i think that's the latest official one).
    Problem is, in 2133 mode, i can only post with 1 stick. With set 1) in 1600 mode I can post with 2 sticks (any slots as shown in manual). With set 2) in 1600 mode, I an post with 3 sticks (also any slots as shown in manual). That's it. Any other configuration (for example quad channel or 8 sticks) will not post, I get error 67.
    I tried manual mode as well as XMP. It seems in XMP mode i don't even get to error 67, it just keeps rebooting and rebooting, rebooting on error code 19.
    Does anyone run this 2133 set at 4x4gb ? If so could you please possibly give me your OC settings? I tweaked vccsa, pll and dram voltage, but no luck.
    Thanks in advance.

    It won't boot in quad channel even in 1333. Manual says, if you number slots A B C D | E F G H, quad channel is  A _ C _ | _ F _ H . It will not post in this configuration. Neither of my two sets (even 2133 running in 1600 or 1333). However,  A B C D | _ _ _ _ will post in 1600! I tried this out of curiosity and this is technically an invalid configuration? It's not even mentioned in the manual. It also seems to me the system will never post if I have something in slot G.
    I also must add both of my kits are tested, additionally my asus rive can run quad set in 2133 just fine.
    I set 1.5v kit at 1.5, then tried 1.520. For 1.65v kit, i tried 1.5, 1.520 and 1.65 and next one I don't remember i think 1.68. I tried vccsa (system agent) 1.15 - 1.30, also, why is PLL so high on this board? I am seeing ~ 1.77 (I did set it at 1.8 later).
    Also what are the modes 1-7? Where can I find more information about those?
    Should I RMA this board? I can probably get it replaced within a day or two.
    I also must note, I have the worst luck ever with lga 2011 boards. It took me 3 tries to get normal rive, and now this. Sigh.

  • Msi Big Bang Xpower II can only run with 3 memory modules?

    Hello there! I've just got my new system up and running. But it cant boot with 4 memory modules when there is a module in slot 7? I have a 4x8gb kit from corsair (CMP32GX3M4X1600C10), and a Msi Big Bang Xpower II..
    When i start it, it just shows me the debug code "67" which is "Late Cpu Initialization" according to the "User Guide".. It stays there, for about 15 seconds, then it shuts down, and does the same, over and over..
    Atm, i'm running with 3 modules, and there's no problems at all! I've testet ALL memory blocks, in another computer, and they run just fine..
    What should i do?

    Also, what cpu, bios version , memory type etc
    Make sure the mem mods are in the proper slots for tri channel operation.
    >>Posting Guide<<
    If everything comes up clean, update to the most recent bios. Only do this if your computer is stable in bios. IE You are only having crashes in windows etc.

    recently i Bought BBXPII MOBO and I install ALL when i start it up the Mobo starts no issues but the monitor was on stand by ;/
    I read some comments and i see this MOBO don't support my Processor on the original version of the BIOS crap I have I7 4820K ;/
    I bought new chip with the newest Version of the BIOS i swap it with the CHIP Original installed  I Clear the CMOS  and press multi BIOS button then i plug in  my PSU
    NOTHING monitor is still on stand by i check with 3 Video cards all are working with my sec PC no issues
    i don't know what to do that's sec MOBO first one was faulty and after switching it on one of the chips just spark MSI swap it for new one and that one is not working to :(
    any ideas someone know what i do wrong ?
    the Chip i buy with the BIOS can be  faulty to but how i can check it i guess I cant ;/ 
    then how i can flash BIOS when i even cant get the MOBO boot ? and i will not buy older CPU to start the MOBO that will be just insane  and i don't have any one who can barrow me one for 5 min ;/

    HELLO
    Again ME I think its a warning for a lot of you
    Finely MSI contacted me  and i get my RAM nr I spend 40£ to send the motherboard to MSI in Netherland yee i was happy someone will deal with the problem I have and they will update my BIOS to make sure my CPU will be compatible with the Mobo.
    Today I receive my  MOBO back I was really happy i connect all and i get in SHock nothing the same issue no Video output Monitor stays  black just like was before the debug panel is off nothing running
    i check and the serial nr of the MOBO is different what mean its total new Mobo and probably coz i cant get it running its same old BIOS i spend 40£ probably to  swap new Motherboard for New Motherboard but not to fix the issue and the issue was simple i need version of bios 2.3 or higher to make it work with my CPU I7-4820K
    now I don't know what to do the shop where I buy the Mobo dont want to help me and when i ask for my money back they seid its after the 30 days period and i cant get refund i just wasted 284£ all in for nothing a big black garbage what taking only space in my room now  with MSI LOGO ON IT
    In MSI eyes People don't buy new rigs they just upgrade stuff
    it should be like that
    I was should have  old PC with I7-3930K and then i decide to  buy new processor that how MSI Think (Why to buy 3820k or 3930k when u can get 4820 or 4930k for allmost the same price ? )
    but my mistake was i  buy new processor and new Motherboard and cant get it run because in that NEW MOBO is 1.2 Ver of BIOS and without having old CPU u cant update :(

  • MSI Big Bang Xpower D4 Debug (No POST, No Beep)

    Specs:
    -MSI Big Bang XPower Mainboard
    -Cooler Master  Silent Pro Gold 1000W PSU
    -MSI GTX460
    -Corsair Dominator DDR3 1600 3 x 2GB RAM (CMP6GX3M3A1600C8)
    -Intel Core i7 970 processor
    Issue:
    While power on, the debug indicator gets to d4 (indicating problem initializing the memory per the handbook) it doesn't POST and no beep.  I have tried with just one RAM at the DIMM1 position, but whatever I tried it consistently gives me d4.
    Any help is much appreciated

    Quote
    I called intel, and they claim that the RAM is not compatible with this processor.  They said this processor (i7 970) is only compatible with memory of 1.5v and at speed 1066.  Unfortunately, the corsair module I tried is working at 1.65v, therefore it is not guaranteed to work.  Will try with 1.5v mem kits, and follow up afterward.
    True, Intel i7 970 native speed is in fact 1066, however, the RAM you have can easily be set to say 1333 9 9 9 24 tRFC 88, maybe even 59, CR 1 @ 1.5V's & I would almost guarantee it is going to work. One tidbit they didn't tell you, is the i7 970 & 980X 32nm CPU can be run with up to 1.8V's DRAM Voltage. That's per the current Intel datasheet (absolute maximum chart). Look it up for yourself. I don't want to argue with Intel, or the stock/default of 1066 @ 1.5V's as 100% correct to the letter of the law, but I have some of that RAM & two of these boards, & I know they will perform above 1066. Unless of course, either the board, CPU, or RAM just won't cooperate. With three things in the mix, any one of them can make or break what can be done. Your RAM can be, unless something is grossly wrong with it, be made to run stock/default of 1066 speed @ 1.5V's.
    This is a BBX with Corsair RAM & an i7 970. Wonder what Intel would say about this?
    DRAM Voltage in BIOS set 1.66 (WARNING i7 970/980X only), CPUID H/W Monitor shows 1.65V's. Always consult the latest & most current component datasheets! Know the specs!

  • MSI Big Bang-XPower powers off then powers on to boot to OS

    Not sure if this issue has been addressed on the forum yet. I purchased a new MSI Big Bang-XPower motherboard this past week ,with Intel Core i7-990X as the cpu. I'm using SILVERSTONE SST-ST1200-G Evolution 1200W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD as the power supply and Kingston HyperX 12GB (3 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) for memory. This is in a Lian Li X-1000 chassis.
    I built the system completely and loaded the OS (win7). I noticed during the updates, when the system would need to reboot. The system powers down, then it would power back up, then power would cut off and the system would restart and load right to the OS. I finished the updates and loaded other needed software. This problem continued during the whole time, when ever I needed to reboot. I was even able to load my games and played one. No over clocking needed.
     I started my trouble shooting process,
    flashed the bios from v1.4 to v1.6 - no changed
    changed the bios settings to boot something(can't remember) default - no change
    So I started eliminating anything connected to the motherboard. - no change
    I'm down to the motherboard, cpu, ps and one 4gb stick of memory - no change
    It did not matter if the system was cold or hot, still the same problem. The mb LED would go to A1 every time and almost start running again before it shut down on it's own. Powers back up and boots to the OS.
    I'm at a stand still, on what's causing this problem. I'm sure it's not the memory, because I have pulled this memory from a working system and no problems. Plus, if is compatible with this MSI board. So either it's a bad mb, cpu or ps.  All three of these parts are brand new and I still can return them for exchange.
    Anyone have any ideas or suggestions ?

    In BIOS Power Management, or Green Power, I forget which, disable EuP 2013, that should cure it. If it doesn't cure it, it has been a known odd behavior trait of Intel systems for years. Also, disable Spread Spectrum in the Cell Menu.
    Anytime a setting has been changed, driver update reboots etc., it is not uncommon to also experience the double boot behavior. This is normal as the settings are being applied & restarting itself again.
    I've seen this behavior before in the factory with Intel systems. The dual boot behavior usually was a component failure. Which I suspected and turned out to be my problem with this MSI MB. I tried disabling EuP 2013 and spread spectrum, which did not fix the problem for me. Contacting MSI tech support on the phone, was irritating and sub-par but I was finally able to RMA the MB through the online request . Since receiving the new MB and installation. No problems with the board and actually have clocked the chit outta of the board. Thanks for your reply and help.

  • MSI Big Bang XPower Power won't post (d4 debug) (again!)

    Specifications:
    MSI Big Bang XPower Mainboard
    Rosewill 1100W Bronze Edition
    GeForce 465 Fermi
    Corsair Dominator DDR3 1886 6 x 2GB RAM
    Intel i7-930 processr
    Issue:  System powers up for about 30 seconds, the debug indicator gets to d4 (indicating problem initializing the memory per the handbook) and doesn't post. System will remain running however (different from another guy on the forum having a nearly identical problem.)
    I've tried rearranging the RAM.  If I put a stick in the first blue slot the debug reads E8. I've tried using various single sticks in the first black slot closest to the CPU (all produce D4). I've checked the CPU socket pins to make sure they aren't bent, and I've tried reseating the CPU. I've checked that both 8-pin 12Vs are connected and secure as well as the 24-pin connection. I've tried using three sticks of ram at once in the black slots with no success either. In another thread user HU16E verified on Corsair's webpage that this RAM should be working with this board.
    Finally, in another thread a user with an identical processor, mobo, and RAM (only difference on the ram being he has 1600 and mine is 18XX, I think 1886) demonstrates the same exact problem. Our video cards and PSUs differ.
    Looking for the next step in determining a likely culprit. It seems odd to me that this set of corsair ram might be incompatible, but that's my current hypothesis because it seems even stranger to me that another user would be having the same problem. The chance of both of us getting faulty motherboards, faulty processors, or a full set of faulty ram seems remote.
    Edit: Also did a benchtop test with just the PSU/CPU/CPU Fan/1 Stick of ram in the first black slot, D4 error.

    Quote
    but if you think its worthwhile to check using the stock heatsink I'm more then willing to give it a shot.
    Yes, please give that a try. Use just one stick in the primary black DIMM 1 slot.
    Quote
    With the one sided clasp for the ram I was very liberal about pushing it down into the slot and applying a fair bit of force to make sure it sat correctly.
    I found it to be rather tricky too.
    Quote
    If its a BIOS problem can I fix this without having a 'working' stick of RAM?
    Unfortunately, no. If your board is a version 1.1, it should have a current enough bios to at least allow it to fire up with your RAM. Do any of your friends have a DDR3 rig to test your RAM in to make sure all the sticks are good?
    Quote
    The odds of getting two bad boards (and the other user getting a bad board and having the same problem too) seems really remote to me, but I haven't built enough PCs to say that with any confidance. What do you think?
    If they are from the same manufacturing batch....... hmmm! Possible.
    Added: One of the forum users, Aaron, had 4 bad boards in a row. X58 Pro-E I believe they were. Same batch. MSI needs to know right away if a certain batch is having these problems. Have you got a ticket in with them yet explaining your difficulties?

  • MSI Big Bang. MSI LiveUpdate failed.

    I'm doing a review for one of the hardwares by MSI. And while I was doing it halfway, the card keep crashing which I believe is driver issues. But even after updating to the latest driver, 10.12a hotfix, the problem still persist. So I asked around what should I do and most of the answers I received is "update your BIOS".
    Okay, so I take heed of their advice and updated my BIOS to 1.4 using MSI Live Update 4. stupid me! And after using that tool to update it, my computer is stuck at the Windows "Welcome" screen, and the whole screen turn blue after that. So I tried to flash the old BIOS @ M-Flash, I selected "BIOS Update" and then I continued to "Save and Exit". And it restarts again and I hit "DEL" to go back to the BIOS. Guess what? the instead of "BIOS Update", it's "Disabled". I tried clearing CMOS and everything, but it still fails. Now I can't even flash the old BIOS.
    it's a hassle to RMA stuff, I'm sure you guys understand right?  :-X
    here is my specs.
    i7-870
    MSI Big Bang Fuzion
    Kingston Value RAM 2X2GB
    MSI HD6870
    MSI HD6850 Cyclone Power Edition
    Samsung SpinPoint F3
    Seasonic X-750W

    I am not talking about M-Flash.
    Please do this:
    1. Prepare USB Flash Drive for booting DOS (do that on a second computer that has Windows on it):
    - Dowload the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool and the DOS-Files.rar archive which I am attaching to this reply
    - Install the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool and extract the DOS-Files from the DOS-Files.rar archive to a folder of your choice
    - Start the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool , select your USB Flash Drive, set the File System to FAT32, mark the Create a DOS startup disk option and then point the tool to the folder which contains the DOS Files you extracted.
    - Click "Start" and let the tool prepare your USB Flash Drive
    - your USB Flash Drive is now bootable
    2. Copy BIOS File and Flasher to the prepared Flash Drive:
    - Download the v1.4 BIG Bang Fuzion BIOS Archive via this link: http://download1.msi.com/files/downloads/bos_exe/7582v14.zip
    - Extract the BIOS File (A7582IMS.140) and the Flasher (AFUD4310.EXE) from the downloaded archive and copy both files to the prepared USB Flash Drive
    3. Boot from the prepared USB Flash Drive:
    - unplug ALL(!) hard drives, optical drives, floppy drives, card readers etc. from your system (so that the prepared USB Flash Drive will be the ONLY(!) drive attached to it
    - when you start the system it has no other choice than to boot from the USB Flash Drive after you press F2 when you get the CMOS Checksum error
    - you should then reach the DOS Command Prompt
    4. Flashing the BIOS from the DOS Command Prompt:
    - simply enter AFUD4310 A7582IMS.140 /P /B /N /C
    - ... and wait until the flash procedure finishes
    - once the flash procedure is done, turn off your system, unplug your PSU from A/C power and >>Clear CMOS<< again
    - press F1 to enter BIOS Setup and load "Optimized Defaults" --> then Save & Exit and see if the problem is gone or not
    Please only use one(!) memory module in the first black slot when you do this procedure!
