MSI Z87-G45 Latest beta bios problem?

So i have updated to the latest beta bios but the core jumps to 5600mhz from 4500mhz.
Everything is set like it's alway's set.(4500 core @ 1.285v 4200 uncore/ring @ 1.19v, memory on xmp profile and the inputvoltage is 1.880v)
This only happens when using firefox from what i've seen, but i haven't done testing yet so it could happen with more programs.
Firefox becomes laggy when this happens and doesn't want to load anything unless you wait 25 seconds and then it still not load's the site complete.
IE 11 doesn't do this by the way.
My setup:
MSI Z87-G45 Gaming
Intel I7 4770K
G.Skill Ripjaws X 16gb
Sapphire R9 290
Cooler Master Silent Pro 1000W
Edit: The clock's are just showing up that high in task manager, in XTU they stay @ 4.5.
But i still don't know why firefox is acting up with this bios.

Close this topic as i have found the problem.
It was a usb 2.0 stick in usb 3.0 port that was saving the cache for firefox.
But the stick was working very slowly in that port hence the slowdown.
Sorry for the thread.

MSI Z87-G45 problems

I'm having issues (again) with the MSI Z87-G45 motherboard. This is a replacement board from having to RMA my initial purchase. Brand new build and I cannot get any display. I have reseated the cpu, ram, and graphics card multiple times. I disconnected everything from the motherboard except for the essential items and I still do not get a display. I tried without a graphics card and was still unable to get a display. When using DVI the monitor goes into standby mode. When using VGA the monitor doesn't recognize it's hooked up to anything. I use this monitor on multiple computers in my house so 10000% sure it is not the monitor. All components are out of the case.
Components I have tested:
cpu: Intel Pentium G3258, Intel Celeron G3220
Motherboard: MSI Z87-G45
gpu: MSI R9 280, MSI R7 260, no gpu
psu: EVGA 750w 80+ Bronze, Corsair CX430w 80+ Bronze
ram: Pny XL9 1600 DDR3 8gb stick, Kingston Fury 1866 DDR3 8gb stick
Is there something I'm missing or is this as simple as I received another bad board?

So...

ram: Pny XL9 1600 DDR3 8gb stick, Kingston Fury 1866 DDR3 8gb stick
Are you mixing RAM??
Did you try to reser CMOS? >>Clear CMOS Guide<<
When I was very beginner, I had a computer with GPU, and I had similar problem: no display. Well, I was smart enough to plug my HDMI to on board HDMI port even though there was a GPU. So please make sure that you plug the cable to the graphics card.
Can you try different video cable? DVI/VGA/HDMI.
Intel Pentium G3258 will NOT work as your board BIOS is probably earlier than required for this chip to run properly.

MSI Z87-G45 BIOS

So today I decided to check how my MSI Z87-G45 Gaming, Socket-1150 BIOS looked like so i pressed the enter BIOS option on the GO2BIOS utility app, my PC restarted and the screen stayed black for 10 minutes.... So I booted back to windows and disabled fast boot and tried to enter BIOS manually that didnt work either. So my problem is that my BIOS won't show at all. The PC is functional and there are no problems with it, can still boot into windows and go on about my day. But i would love to be able to enter BIOS.....

Oh great you found the solution Thanks for an update

MSI-Z87-G45 Killer networking problem

MSI-Z87-G45 Killer networking problem, need help please!!!
1st instahttps://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=172016.0ll- internet works- but when I tried to do the "test" in the control panel for KillerNetwork, it failed to load, it said that I needed to install flash. I closed out that window that popped up for running the speed test and got a message that says that in order for the killer networking to work correctly I must perform the "speed test". So I went and downloaded the latest version of "flash player". tried the test again and got the same results. How the heck can I do that if it doenst see that I have "flash" installed....Grrrrr btw-Flash has been verified and works on the web page where that "test" resides if I go directly to the site, just not via this dialog box that the control panel uses.
So I deleted the control panel and driver and reloaded them.
Went to do the "speed test" and got a repeat of the above, so I left it alone and tried to play a game...the lag was horrible, the worst I have ever experienced - unplayable, so I guess that message about the speed test is 100% a must!!
I have tried everything I can possible imagine, I even reinstalled windows and all the drivers again....still nothing works with this "speed test dialog box"....What to do??
Thanks in advance-Rob

Thanks I will try that, if not, it seems the adapter may have an issue beause the internet is jacked up on it right now.
On that control panel program, I wonder why they wouldnt just program it to take you to the site via the browser and not try to keep it embedded inside that pop-up window<-------hey!!! that just gave me an idea- I wonder if the problem is that it is a type of "pop-up"!! Dang I will have to wait until tonight to try that - "enable pop-ups" ....never thought to try that since it wasnt inside the Chrome browser window itself...maybe its the fix!! "ummm" maybe!!! naaa it cant be that simple ...can it?? lol
I realy hope it is, well either of these...that lan adapter was the whole reason I went with this MSI board!!

MSI Z87 G45 driver problem

I have a MSI z87 g45 motherboard along with a i5 4670K. I've downloaded all the drivers directly from the MSI website. But, I am unable to install intel_rst and intel_vga_mb. Windows says "system does not meet minimum requirements". I don't understand. Anyone got a solution?

Sounds like they are disabled in bios.
If you are using a discrete card and have multi monitor support disabled the IGD will be disabled by default.
Intel Rapid Start is disabled (and not really needed) by default so no worries.

MSI Z87-G45 BIOS Temps

I am having an issue with the BIOS displaying 99 degrees Celsius in the BIOS menu. It ramps up rather quick loading into the BIOS from around 50 degrees to 99 which it stays at. Touching the heatsink itself it feels cool to the touch which leads me to believe its not displaying the temps right. Also in windows my idle temps are around 45-55 but under load they can go up to the high 90's.
I am using a MSI Z87-G45 board with a 4670k Haswell which I know run a lot hotter and seems to cap at 100 degrees with just the stock cooler... well until my new cooler ships.
If I were to guess I would say it seems the BIOS is putting some load on the CPU, which would be fine just seems odd. Any insight anyone had on this situation would be great as the little research I have done I have never seen anyone open up the BIOS to temps any higher then 55 degrees on YouTube.
Thanks guys

I just checked that literally after posting that thread. I was certain that it was seated well as I've been playing all types of games on it with no issues but thought I would reapply some paste... only to see that it didn't even make contact. Makes me remember why I'm not a huge fan of the stock Intel cooler hold downs. Now I'm bordering on embarrassed and amazed that the CPU didn't start frying or at least restarting.
Thanks for the help none the less.

Z87 G43 Gaming Latest beta bios

Does the latest beta bios have haswell refresh support like the latest official bios A4 ?

Nope, I just screwed up. Removed the duplicate

MSI Z87 G45 GAMING erratic BSOD/freeze @ 2300, stable @1600. Can't solve.

Hi All,
I would welcome some advice. I am about 4 months into a new machine build:
* MSI Z87 G45 GAMING motherboard
* i7-4770K Haswell 3.5 GHz & aftermarket heatpipe cooler
* 4 x 4Gb G.Skill SNIPER DDR3-2133 PC3-1700 (F3-17000CL11D-8GBSR)
* GeForce GTX 650 Ti w/ 2 Gb Video RAM
* Samsung 840 Pro 256 Gb SSD
* Thermaltake 700W Toughpower
* Win 7 Pro 64-bit SP1
The system seems to run fine at the default 1600 MHz RAM speed, however if I implement either of the X.M.P. profiles (which kick the memory speed up to the RAM's advertised speed of 2133 MHz), the system will occasionally (every 8 to 48 hours) freeze or BSOD. The BSOD stop codes are inconsistent in number (0x00, 0x41, 0x1E, 0xC4) and driver. When the system freezes, there is no consistent behavior. I am not doing any other overclocking besides using the X.M.P. profile in the memory.
RAM timing on the 2133 X.M.P. profile is: 11-11-11-30.
I have updated the BIOS to 1.5, including the ME, and updated all drivers in the system. All irrelevant hardware and drivers are disabled. Also I have done the following:
* MemTest+ 5.01 for over 30 hours, all 4 sticks in. No errors.
* Intel BurnTest on 'Very High', 10 passes, no errors
* Prime95 for over day with 90 C CPU temps constantly being hit. No errors.
* Unigine Valley Benchmark for 30 minutes; no issues
I increased V_DRAM from 1.60V (from the XMP profile) to 1.65V, and I also added +0.10V offset to increase the CPU I/O ANALOG , CPU I/O DIGITAL and SYSTEM AGENT voltages. Didn't seem to help. All other CPU voltages are default from [auto].
I rolled the memory speed back to the default 1600 MHz, and the system seems stable as a rock.
I don't really need to have the memory run at 2133 MHz, but it irks me that the system is not stable with the rated components, and I'm befuddled why the stress tests seem to pass just fine, then the system will randomly hang with arguably a far less demanding load than the stress tests.
Note that I have not yet:
* reset the CMOS when changing to X.M.P. Perhaps I should?
* reseated the graphics card or CPU. The latter will require R/R of the thermal grease, which I will do if needed, but it's a pain. Since the system is stable at 1600 MHz, I assumed that all basic systems are working as they should.
* Tried to work my way up in memory speed step by stem from 1600 to 2133 to see where things fall apart.
* Tested the video memory
I suspect main system memory, despite the clean bill of health from MemTest, and based on many of the comments to others with similar problems from the veterans on this board. I don't want to push the CPU voltages too much above the default/auto values, for fear of damage and reduced lifetime.
Also, the power supply is a nice unit from an older high-end gaming rig. It is rated at 700W. The PS does probably have over 30,000 hours on it (24/7 use for 3-4 years), however. Strange that it would work at 1600 MHz fine, and with only slightly more power load at 2133. I suppose stranger things have happened.
I've read the suggestions to run only 2 sticks, rather than 4, but I can't justify dropping $140 on new memory (I don't really need the extra speed benefit, it's more curiosity and just not knowing at this point).
Anyway, perhaps more seasoned souls than I can share their thoughts. The system is perfectly usable at 1600, but I'd really like to know where the lockups are stemming from. Troubleshooting is maddening because of the inconsistency in the long times before failure and lack of repeatability to reproduce the issue.
Thanks in advance for your time.

Thank you both for the prompt replies. I'm learning a lot.
Turns out I also found this from G.SKILL in going over reviews of the memory modules I have. Another user had a similar configuration as mine and was having similar problems. G.SKILL replied:
Quote
We are sorry to hear you were unable to get two kits working in the same system. It is not guaranteed two kits can operate at the rated specifications since they were not pre-matched, tested, and guaranteed at factory. With multi-channel motherboards, perfectly matching memory is necessary to achieve high frequency. This is why we must offer high capacity 32GB, 64GB kits, otherwise we can just sell one module at a time and have you purchase as many as you need. Unfortunately, memory does not work that way. If you purchase a 16GB kit rated at DDR3-2133, you should have absolutely no issues. For any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us directly for assistance.
Thank you
GSKILL SUPPORT
Not knowing any better, I simply purchased two "kits" of 2x4 GB each and installed them. Perhaps worse, if the modules were matched, I may well have mixed them up so the matched modules don't even sit in the same channels 1/3 or 2/4. G.SKILL seems to have a pretty responsive board, so I'll ask them what they suggest.
Also in the end, I really just want a stable machine. This is a basically an office/engineering machine. My initial thinking was that if the system was unstable at 2133 then there is something wrong with it that needs to be fixed. It sounds instead like getting to 2133 is not guaranteed, and is much more of an art than simply throwing the modules in and powering up the system.
I'm perfectly happy at 1600 knowing the system is stable. Indeed realizing now that 2133 requires overclocking, I may well have backed off to 1600 even if everything had worked just fine at 2300, just to trade extra stability for the (small) performance improvement that I would likely never notice anyway.
I'll put together a post for the G.SKILL forums, and if I get anything useful I'll post what I learn here for completeness.
Thanks again for the fast and informative replies. It's much appreciated.
Best,
-Paul

New MSI Z87 G45 Build Stuttering Issues

So few days ago i finally built my new rig:
Specs:
Intel 4670K
MSI Z87 G45
MSI 760 GAMING OC
G.Skill Ripjaws X 8GB 1600 CL9
Seasonic G 550
Samsung Evo 250
WD RED 2TB
So i noticed that i get micro stutter when playing HD videos or youtube videos. Same stutter applies on some HTML5 effects and desktop also..
There is no stutter present when gaming but i do get kind of "slowmo" feel even when my FPS is high enough 60+ (or i'm just picky or somethin...)
I tried everything from installing drivers,, reinstalling OS, Using HDD as OS drive then used Oboard GPU and still the same issue.
Does anyone know what could be the problem? could mobo be damaged? memory? or cpu?
I even did tons of benchmarks and everythine is stable and fine and shows no ERRORS.
I also updated the bios to the latest version (1.5)
Does anyone have any clue what might be going on?
I think few monhts i found someone who had similar problem and fixed this but cant find it anymore...

Are you able to post screen shots of the memory and spd tabs of CPUZ?
Is the ram installed into DIMMS 2 & 4? (2nd and furthest from the CPU)
Have you tried a full Cmos Clear? >>Clear CMOS Guide<<

Re: No boot no bip no screen with new MSI Z87 G45 Gaming

What did finaly fix your problem ?
Here same issues, same keys. :
MSI z87-g45 gaming
hd7970mhz
2x4gb ram 1600 hyperx
850 thermaltake
120gb ssd samsung
system boots 5-10second, no display, close, reboot and stays on, no display.

With a single stick of the working ram installed, run memtest then flash the bios to the latest:

MSI Z87 G45

hi, just recently i've bought this board, my USB keyboard not working on the POST there, but in the windows its okay. i tot it would be the bios usb legacy enable/disable. i use the other keyboard and went to enable the usb legacy, but still the previous usb keyboard still not working by the POST time. i just dont want to switch to other keyboard when i wanted to go to the bios.
Any idea what's happening?

"lifting this topic up" !!
First of all my specs;
Intel Core i7-4770K 3.5GHz
MSI Z87-G45 Gaming, Socket-1150
MSI GeForce GTX 760 Gaming 2GB
2x Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600MHz 4GB CL9
1000w PSU
sata 3 500gb HDD
I recently bought 2 of theese MB:s, one for my computer and also i build a computer for my GF..
im struggling ALOT with my keyboard sometimes not working neither from startup or in windows..
i have been updating BIOS to the latest, and while doin that i noticed in the info that there was some USB issues that had been "corrected".
Well apperently this issue i have is a pain and it wont give in.. i have been tryin 3 other keyboards and at the point its not working, no keyboard is working, EXCEPT, for the one i use for GF computer, wich is a wireless Logitech k850 something keyboard, That one works like a charm, but none of my wired ones..
Strange thing tho, is when it is working, i tapped into BIOS to check if there was some USB setting to change or smth, but nothing.. tho i noticed it said i had 2 keyboards installed o.O, 2 ?! no i only have 1..
Why does it say 2?
One more thing just, while keyboard aint working, my Bluetooth stick works, USB memory works, Mouse works, and External usb3 disc works..
Yet it says this in the USB setting that i have 7 of 8 unused ports, and 1 port with unknown device..
anyone know the solution to this? :3
Please write a line or two so i can fix this!
Best regards // Emil
PS; sorry for bad english, im from sweden.

MSI Z87-G45 and BSoD all time

Hi,
my configuration:
MSI Z87-G45,
i5 4670k
2x8 GB ddr3 Patriot Viper 3 1600MHz CL9
Radeon HD 6870
PSU Corsair 550W
HDD SATA WD 500GB
SSD Corsair Force 3 128 GB
Windows 7 64bit
...and i have BSOD all time... At first I thought that the problem is SSD, but yesterday unplugget him and put normal HDD. And still got bluescreens. I updated BIOS to version 1.4, restored default settings and I tried to manually set the memory and enable/disable XMP profile. Memtest86 passed without problems. I changed SATA ports and dunno what more to do. Help please.

no BSOD so far, so this mean that first ram piece is bad?
Have that RAM kit exchanged. Perhaps even consider a Corsair Vengeance or Vengeance Pro. http://www.corsair.com/us/memory-by-product-family/vengeance-pro-series-memory/vengeance-pro-series-16gb-2-x-8gb-ddr3-dram-1600mhz-c9-memory-kit-cmy16gx3m2a1600c9.html

IRQL_NOT_LES_OR_EQUAL 0x0000000A
This Stop error message usually occurs during installation when there was an attempt in kernel mode to touch pageable memory at too high a process internal request level (IRQL).
Ouch, I just rechecked your screenshot. That XMP profile calls for a CR of 3T. Your setting is 1T. That is one probable cause as per the error explanation above.
I would consider an alternative kit as 3T essentially points to a lesser quality memory chip on those modules. You can of course attempt to manually set your CR to 2T or 3T and see if it works for you.

MOVED: ram compatability msi z87 g45

This topic has been moved to Intel Core-iX boards.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=171226.0

I also have a MSI Z87 G45 motherboard.
I tried 1 working RAM module in all 4 sockets while testing and my memory only works in the 2 sockets closest to the CPU. I get no display when putting RAM in the other sockets.
I have 4x4GB DDR3-2400 modules, Kingston HyperX Anniversary (KHX24C11X3K4/16X).
I also tried the flash the BIOS to the latest but no improvements.
I got older Kingston HyperX (DDR3-1866) that do work in the other sockets.
Do I need to configure my BIOS first before inserting the RAM in those sockets?

Default MSI Z87-G45 Lan/Usb Help needed.

Hello,
So yesterday i massively upgraded my pc with the following components:
MSI Z87-G45
Intel Core i5-4670K
GeForce GTX 780 3GB (Classified)
and kept my old Ram (Gskill ripjaw ddr3 3x4gb) ,Hd's PSU. and i am using windows 8.1
The main problems i am having are as follows:
1. I am unable to get the usb ports to recognize most things i plug in. This included a USB flash drive and a wireless network stick.
2. I am unable to install any Lan items from the mobo factory disc. The option to install the LAN drivers are greyed out on the disc menu, and when i search for them they will not install. Now i've found them online and downloaded them to a Usb Drive, but i can't use that because the USB drive won't be recognized by windows.
Any help on these issues would be so greatly appreciated, i am getting terribly frustrated and don't know what to do.
I have checked the Bios and it appears to be current, i have also reset the Mobo battery at the request of MSI.

have you done a new fresh OS installation after mainboard change?
