Sound Problem With new motherboard Z87-G45 Gaming

2 days ago i bought a new motherboard msi Z87-G45 Gaming ,
when i started playing my favorite game (cs go) i noticed that the sound at the left and right are louder(way louder it even hurts me ears )
and the sound at the front and the back are just normal, i also noticed that quality of the sound is worse , so im wondering if the onboard soundcard is broken or has it to do with something else?
and yes the Realtek Hd Audio driver is installed
im using the onboard soundcard Realtek ALC1150
and the headset Siberia V2 Steelseries
I am new to the forum if i posted this in the wrong section or something i apologize
i also like to apologize for my bad english.

>>Posting Guide<<
Apart from Realtek you could install Sound Blaster Cinema.
Try to reinstall the drivers >>Realtek Downloads<< with the latest available.
Try different headset/speakers.

    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:

    Memtest is included with the forum flash tool.

  • [Athlon64] Sound problem with new speakers, maybe related to soundcard on motherboard!

    I just bought new speakers to my PC, creative Inspire GD580, but no sound are comin from them! they worked, because on the remote u could press test and then a noise came from each speaker (its 5.1) but no sound in windows, (when u log in or out and that kind off stuff) and not when I play music or games. Whats he problem? they are exactly right plugged in in the computer and that kind of tuff sp thats not the problem. I wonder if it has anything to do with my motherboard because the sound card are on it, I dont use any seperatly sound card, I use the one on the motherboard, the motherboard is an MSI K8T NEO2 FIR, K8T800PRO, Socket-939 SATA, GbLAN, ATX, Raid, Firewire, AGP8X (sound exit : VIA VT8237 - 7.1 sorround sound.) Is this my problem? please help!             The Sound card i think its called Realtek AC'97 Audio for Via Audiocontroller, is that bad or good?
    Maybe thet just control the sound, i'm not sure its the sound cards name!

    Okay,
    the old speakers work fine, the new ones don't. So I don't think, that this is an issue of the mainboard.
    Please check if the speakers are really connected the right way. Also check "Audio devices" (sorry, don't know the equivalent in non-german Windows) in Control Panel, if speaker setup corresponds to your hardware. There is also a MSI- or realtek thingy in the control panel, you should have a look at the settings there, too.
    In BIOS there is not much to check. You can only enable or disable the onboard audio device. BIOS Version is shown on startup, it might be necessary to press the [pause] key in order to read the information.

  • Sound problems with new kernel

    When I upgraded to 2.6.21, my sound just started skipping.  It would still play, but apps would freeze and sounds would continue for ages.  Now, for some odd reason, I get no sound at all.

    I seem to have the same problem. The sound would play in some programs, would not in others, and in all of them when I stop playing, it would repeat the last half second endlessly. Could anybody shed some light on this problem?

  • What is causing a sound problem with new Cinema Display 27 ?

    My new 27 Cinema Display intermittently won't play sound when connected to my MB Pro. Restarting the computer doesn't fix it, and all the display audio settings are correct etc. Phoned Apple Support and the fix was to unplug the power from the back of the cinema display to reset the screen controller. This keeps happening - is this a software bug ? Hardware problem ? Is it fixable or something that is a legacy of the 24 inch cinema display problems ? I really like the screen size but don't want a display that I keep having to plug/unplug in order to watch hulu, play itunes etc. Apple won't declare my screen to be defective even though this has happened a few times but can't tell me how to fix the problem either. Am going to send it back for a refund - don't know whether a different display will have the same problem or if this is a generic cinema display defect. Thanks for any insight.

    There are threads in this forum and MacRumors where numerous people are having this issue. When I contacted support they had me reload the software update and reset the power. I am encouraging everyone to contact Apple every time it happens so we can get a fix for the problem. It is the general consensus that this is a software issue that can be corrected if we can get Apple to work on it. I agree with you I expect my $1000 monitor to work properly all the time.

  • Surround sound problems with new 15.11 software

    Firstly I would like to give a big thankyou for getting the new IP recording software release out it is very welcome.
    Unfortunately this has highlighted even more the surround sound issue for me. All my tests have been done over optical (if anyone could repeat the tests over HDMI it would be very much appreciated just to see if there is any difference).
    Here are my findings so far with a small amount of testing.
    BT TV on Demand
    HD 5.1 movies appear to switch correctly
    SD and HD none multi surround movies appear to play in stereo from the start needing the menu/surround workaround applying to get surround sound as is the same for the tv box sets and kids on demand.
    IP Channels
    HD sports channels i.e. BT Sports 1,2 and ESPN (I have hidden the SD versions so haven't tested them) appear to a switch to surround sound correctly
    All other channels start in stereo and require the AD button on/off workaround to switch to surround sound.
    IP Channel Recordings
    Here lies the real problem for me now. Any IP channel recordings (not tested sports channels yet) start in stereo and require the AD on/off button workaround to switch to surround sound BUT as soon as you apply a fast forward or rewind when it starts to play again it has switched back to the stereo feed which is a much higher volume. I hope you can appreciate how annoying this gets that everytime you fast forward/rewind a recorded IP channel to sound switches and starts playing at a higher volume until the workaround is applied (everytime).
    Obviously the freeview channels all appear to switch and work fine.
    I am sure there is more to find but I just felt it worthwhile getting the issue highlighted AGAIN now the recording ability increases the visibility of this bug.

    Maybe slightly harse as with more testing I am not sure if this is a youview/humax issue and is a problem on the catchup player on youview retail also. I have added below to my first post slightly with a few more findings and some clarity. 
    When I say surround sound what I am talking about is the Dolby Digital track (this can be 5.1 or 2.0 but in 2.0 format my amp can encode that with pro logic 2 and make it sound like a reasonable surround sound track through my speakers).
    After testing through HDMI sound I find that this is even worse and in most cases will not transmit the Dolby 2.0 track at all even using the workarounds.
    The freeview HD channels work flawlessly as do the BT sports HD channels (all 3 inc ESPN) (non-HD freeview channels do not appear to carry anything but standard stereo so can't switch no matter what). If anyone has a surround setup check the difference in volume between channel 001 (BBC non HD) and channel 101 (BBC HD) this I believe is the difference between the standard stereo channel and the dolby 2.0 stereo channel.
    All IP channels (except sports) fail to automatically select the Dolby 2.0 soundtrack unless forced, as do the catch up channels (tested during programme playback as no Dolby during the adverts) and if recorded switch back to standard stereo everytime a skip/rewind step is made.
    Most on-demand content fail to switch automatically to the Dolby 2.0 track but can be forced with the exception of some HD movies with 5.1 soundtracks that appear to work without a workaround.

  • Sound problem with new ios7

    Since the iOS7 update, the sound coming out of the speaker and headphone jack of my ipad 3 sound very bad.

    I have this problem too and others have reported it.  Reboot by holding the on/off button and home button until apple appears was suggested and seems to work for some. I just shut down and restarted normally and it works too, but not on every fresh start up. Bad, bad Apple because this problem appears even with Apple's own Music app. You think they might have tested it. I have seen the problem on and off in TED videos. Tried to watch one tonight with my wife and the sound was horrible. We couldn't stand it. I shut the iPad down, came back 20 minutes later and everything works fine.
    I bought my first Mac in 1984 and have been happy with Apple, but I'm embarrassed to say that ios7 looks a lot like Microsoft, just changing everything for the sake of change and, moreover, creating problems for users. ios7 calendar is far inferior to its predecessor too IMHO, but that's another topic.

  • Flashing Z87-G45 GAMING bios

    Hi I'm in need of new bios for my motherboard  Z87-G45 GAMING current version is 1.A0 (out of the box) and  latest ME drivers .
    I will be using MSI Forum HQ USB flashing tool.
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Thx for all the help in advance.

    Quote from: Chike on 24-March-15, 02:36:00
    You do not need to update BIOS just because "it is the latest version", flashing BIOS is always a risk, do not flash unless you really need to, e.g. it resolves hardware compatibility issue that you have. If it works. don't fix it.
    +1 
    But if you want, well, we can't stop you but advise you how to do it and how to not brick the board 
    With MFlash and Forum tool it's always different story.. both can flash it perfectly fine, but if you get a single byte error in a file or other thing that can corrupt something while flashing, either can brick it. Use what you prefer to use.

  • I recieved a new faulty MSI Z87 G45 Gaming Motherboard ?!

    Hello,
    I ordered an MSI Z87 G45 Gaming Motherboard a couple of days ago and received it. 3 Days ago I received my power supply so I could start to build my gaming build. Once I wanted to put my CPU into the CPU slot on my MSI Z87 G45 Gaming motherboard I noticed that the CPU slot had bents on it. I quickly contacted my seller and he told me to contact MSI Support since they have this covered. Please can someone help me sort this out.
    Best Regards

    If you are in the UK, the reseller needs to handle the RMA. I would recommend calling the re-seller back and raising cain with them until they take it back.
    As for repairing the pins, it is usually fairly simple. A bright light and eyeglass screwdriver usually does the trick.
    Thanks again xmad,
    But I think I would rather replace the motherboard since it may have problems later. You never know why the cpu slot was damaged in the first place, maybe other components are also affected..
    Regards

  • MSI Z87-G45 Gaming, sound from USB mouse?

    Hi!
    I have some issue from my new computer, see spec below.
    For the information I have a MSI Z87-G45 motherboard.
    I have some sound that occurs sometimes (specially during the first 2-5 minutes) when i move the mouse around.
    It occurs as well sometimes when I been using the computer for a while, basically random just more frequently at the start-up.
    It's hard to know from where the sound occurs, could be PSU but today I read something on another forum about the motherboard I'm using:
    - Higher sound quality using USB, thanks to special adapted current power.
    So i wounder if this can be the case? Is that the reason why i get this noise from inside the computer?
    Is there some way to disabled this "feature" in BIOS?
    Greetings

    The sound sounds like the old mechanics hdd kinda.
    It comes inside the computer, not the speakers.
    My feelings is that it can be the PSU as well, just wanted to check this first, since it most often comes when i move my mouse.

  • Z87-G45 Gaming not able to install Win7 x64 with Samsung 840 EVO

    I have a brand new:
    i5 4570
    MSI Z87-G45 Gaming
    250GB Samsung 840 EVO
    1x 8GB Corsair ValueRam DDR3 1600
    I got everything hooked up properly, but I am not able to install Win7 x64 through an USB pen drive (Kingston Datatravel 32GB USB3) I have a proper  official and Legit MSDN ISO, formatted by the Win7 USB tool from MS itself.
    Note that i do not have an optical device (DVD) installed so I cannot use it 'the old way'.
    Bios settings are okay, everything is recognized
    USB Legacy - Kingston Datatraveler
    HDD Legacy - Samsung 840 EVO
    Win7 setup loads properly; but before I can select the Harddrive / SSD to install Win7 on I get prompted that additional (3rd party) drivers are needed to proceed. The volume is not recognized. This happens 9 out of 10 times. In the 10% cases I do get the option to format the SSD and/or create partitions. However, installation fails after all, cannot load or find file ...
    What I've tried so far:
    Switch out the SATA cables and power cables
    Switch through the various SATA ports on the MB 1 through 6
    Tried UEFI and UEFI/Legacy (UEFI doesn't seem to work at all)
    Update UEFI to V 1.50
    All the above result in the case mentioned.
    I have succesfully installed the SSD in an other PC, using the same pen drive and ISO and it worked like a charme, thus ruling out that the SSD, pen drive or image is corrupt.
    Even when I switched out the SSD after Win7 setup has succesfully copied, unpacked and installed all the files (doing this on the other machine where it works like a charm). Then switching it to the MSI Z87...it fails; starting the setup procedure right from the start, like nothing was ever written on the SSD...
    Finally i turned to Win8, and guess what, it installed without any glitches on the MSI Z87
    What am I missing here, I would really want to install Win7 instead of Win8
    Forgot to enable / disable something in the UEFI? I really don't know, google doesn't give much information on this specific problem (SSD is recognized properly by the BIOS / UEFI as far as I can tell)
    The only thing I have not tried out so far is updating the Samsung SSD firmware to the 1.0 version which has been release 3 days ago...
    Any clues, tips, hunches??

    Quote from: Bernhard on 25-October-13, 18:33:41
    Did you disable Secure Boot in the BIOS? If not, then Win7 won't load.
    Hmmm not sure, thanks for the reply, will have to look into that later today!
    I didn't change it from the default setting I think, unless it is part of the Win8 features in the UEFI. All where disabled by default, and I kept them disabled.
    Where is Secure Boot listed in the UEFI, and any idea wether it is enabled by default?
    ::EDIT::
    Found it in some screenshots, I cannot recall from the top of my head wether it was enabled or disabled, allthough my gutt feeling says it already is disabled.

  • Blank Screen No Beep No Post on new Z87-G45 Gaming

    I posted this on another forum, but since I think my issue might be a bit different I figured a new message would be better.
    I switch on older mobo with the this one, new ram, and new Cpu. 
    When I power it on everything spins up but no post no screen no beep nothing....just spinning fans.
    I did all the tests, plugs, bent socket, ram chips, etc...
    Since I was switching out a older motherboard with this one, I knew my power supply was good but who knows.
    Today.  I took a case and stripped it down to metal...put in all the correct mounts in the correct positions, new (in box) Antec 650W PSU
    Mounted the board in the new case, connected the speaker, usbs and switches.  Plugged in the PSU.
    Note: I didn't hook up anything.  No Hard disk, no DVD drive, no keyboard, no mouse, nothing.
    plugged in the monitor (via DVI)
    turned it on...same result.  Spinning CPU fans but no beep and a blank screen.
    BTW, I registered at the MSI support site but since I send in my serial number tag for the rebate I couldn't register a product.
    MOBO: Z87-G45 Gaming  purchased 12/30/2013
    CPU: i7 4771
    RAM:  Patriot 2x8GB (in slot 2 and slot 4) PC3-15000 1866Mhz
    PSU: Antec  650W
    Yesterday I even pulled out the multimeter and started look at the voltage numbers...not that I know what they are supposed to be.
    What else can I try? 
    Any help would be great and thank you!
    Gene

    Just an update. 
    I returned the board to Fry's and while there, there was someone else returning the same board for the exact same reason.  He got a different board and I just exchanged mine for the same model (even though it was an open box).
    I followed xmad's advice and did a out of case test with it.  While sitting on the plastic 'Conductive Grid Bag, I plugged in the CPU, the RAM and the power.  Hooked up the DVI and turned on the power.
    and....got a message on the screen about the amount of memory has changed. 
    I'll take that.   Putting the board in the case and hooking up all the wires now.
    Thank you xmad for helping me out....at least I know I wasn't going insane.

  • Help! Can't overclock new Z87-G45 Gaming without Event 41 Task 63 shutdowns

    I'm running into a frustrating problem with Event 41 Task 63 "unexpected shutdowns" when I'm trying to overclock the computer I recently built. The machine shuts down instantly and seemingly randomly under light load, often when it's idle. It doesn't BSOD, there's no crash dump, and the bug check codes are all zeros in event viewer. It doesn't shutdown while stress testing or playing games. It's certainly not overheating.
     If I run the processor at default clock this doesn't happen, or at least, it hasn't so far. But when I dial in a modest 4.2ghz overclock, it'll reliably happen once or twice daily. The thing is, my overclock will stress test for 24 hours stable with every program I've tried (Intel Extreme Tuning Utility, AIDA64, Prime95) and passes Intel Burn Test 10 passes at very high. It only seems to generate the Event 41 errors while idle or web browsing.
     Steps I've taken so far that have not solved the problem:
     - replaced PSU
     - replaced memory
     - checked cable connections to motherboard
     - flashed bios to latest
     - updated all drivers to latest
     - disabled C-states
     - disabled adaptive voltage and dynamic multiplier
     - disabled sleep in Windows power plan
     - disabled all but one audio driver
     - verified hard drive passes dskchk
     - verified memory passes memtest 12 hours
     - verified sfc/scannow gives no errors
     I'm close to abandoning overclocking but that's disappointing.
     Here are my system specs:
     OS: Windows 8
     Motherboard: MSI Z87-G45 gaming
     Processor: Intel i5 4670k
     Cooler: Hyper 212+
     Memory: Gskill 2x4GB 1600mhz 8-8-8-24 (Haswell compatible)
     Video card: MSI 770 GTX Twin Frozer
     PSU: Seasonic G-series 650W (Haswell compatible)
     Firewire Card: SIIG 2-port PCIe
     Drive: Seagate Barracuda 1TB
     Optical: ASUS DRW-24B1ST
     Here's the overclock I've been attempting:
     Core multiplier: 42
     Vcore: 1.16v
     Ring multiplier: 41
     Vrin: 1.15v
     Vccin: 1.85v
     XMP enabled (1600mhz, 1.5v)
     (all other settings default in MSI bios)
    Can anyone suggest to me what might be going on here?
    I've tried raising vcore to 1.19 and running fixed voltage with no difference.
    Are there other settings I should try changing? One thing, for example, is that I've left vdroop control on auto. I have different % options in the MSI bios, should I start experimenting? I read that Haswell has little vdroop so I didn't mess with it.
    Is it right to assume this isn't a motherboard problem, since I don't seem to get the unexpected shutdowns when I'm running stock clocks? I think I've ruled out the PSU and ram since I've replaced them both, so if it's a hardware issue I think it's got to be the motherboard.
    Thanks for any help.

    I know this topic is old but i have been having this same problem as andy and i cant figure it out. Also im sorry if i wasnt suppose to continue on someones thread but i thought it would be easier since we had the same problem. I have the same mobo and cpu, this only happens when i try to OC. when i set it back to stock bios it doesnt happen. Event id 41 with a random reboot and no BSOD. i dont know what to do anymore besides revert back to stock. IF anyone can help me let me know.
    i have oc to 4.4 multiplier with 34x uncore ratio.
    things i have tried. set everything to auto except those two settings above.
    changed oc multiplier to fixed/dynamic.
    turned off xmp lowered ram to 1333mhz ddr3
    tested vcore from 1.15 to 1.265 in bios.
    vccin at 1.9 to 1.95
    vring to 1.15
    auto offset settings (vcore/vrin) - also tried .001 offset as well
    turned off and on c-states
    C1E off
    ram timing and volts to auto or manual timings of 9-10-9-28-2 1.5V which were found on the box of ram
    ive ran memtest+86 for 4 runs with no problems
    sfc/scannow -checked out ok
    ran antivirus/malware
    ccleaner
    lowered cpu multiplier to x40
    i passed AIDA64 and prime95 with 6 hours each with vcore at 1.2 but its reboots randomly when on light load like internet browsing.
    this whole computer is 2 months old.

  • MSI Z87-G45 GAMING.. does the killer networking work with Windows 8.1?

    I was scrolling through the reviews for this board and someone mentioned in the reviews that the killer networking isnt supported with windows 8.1 yet.
    Is this still true or are there updated drivers for windows 8.1 now?
    Thanks.

    There is a driver posted on MSI's website for 8.1.

  • I have a problem with my motherboard and my battery of my 2010 macbook pro 13". It was just serviced with a new screen, keyboard, and logic board.

    I have a problem with my motherboard and my battery of my 2010 macbook pro 13". It was just serviced with a new screen, keyboard, and logic board. How much will a new battery and motherboard cost and would it be worth it or should I just get a new computer. It was about 300 dollars to get it serviced last week. if it adds up to much past 600 dollars I will just get a new one. THANKS FOR ANY HELP!
    P.S During classes today it began beeping in my bag. Like three kind of long steady beeps then a short pause, and when I opened it I couldn't see anything but it was on so I turned it off and back on.

    Depends on what options your Apple store offers - if they can do a depot repair (where they send it out), that's around $300 for all parts & labor.
    If the store doesn't have that option, a logicboard is around $600, battery $80-$100, from what I've seen.
    If they JUST replaced the logicboard, you absolutely should NOT have to pay for another replacement - the replacement is covered by a warranty. If they want you to pay for it, make sure you have a copy of the receipt for the work that was recently completed so you can show it to them. They have no reason to charge you for another logicboard.
