970 gaming bios update error

updated to latest bios version via live update and now get an error msg after reboot "mb thermal design doesnt support cpu over 200w" i have removed battery for more than 15m and tried to reset cmos via jumper.
Board: MSI 970 GAMING
Bios: Version 22.3
VGA:   MSI 280X 3GB
PSU:   CORSAIR GS600

COOLER: ZALMAN LIQUID COOLER
OC: NONE
OS: Windows 7 64bit HOME

For contacting AMD go to AMD site. For contacting MSI directly: >>How to contact MSI.<<
However this board's hardware is not able to handle a 220W cpu under load like clearly listed by MSI. It doesn't matter what any people or companies build.
That's their warranty risk but not relevant for juding if the cpu can be handled by board's thermal and power design.
If companies put it on 970 Gaming and expect it to be throttled it's probably more fraud but a useful offer. No need to buy a 9590 if it won't run at full speed.

  • 970 Gaming bio update

    Just received my 970 Gaming motherboard yesterday to start my build tomorrow. Will need a bio update for an AMD 8370. Do I need to install windows before I update, or, can/should I flash it before the install?
    Thanks..

    I must have gotten lucky as the latest bios was already on it.
    Install went well and booted right up.
    I just got my own 970 Gaming a few days ago and was also pleasantly surprised to see it was at 2.22 UEFI...  That seems to indicate the board is selling well--my revered G46-AM3+ has been passed to a relative (the wife--she's thrilled with my hand-me-downs--I'm lucky like that), but when I got that board it had shipped with the 1.1 UEFI version, and went through several more successful updates to finalize at UEFI version 2.6--and so I built a little decently-priced value box for myself with the 970 Gaming.  (New Egg had a sale with it 15% off it's $99 regular price--had to pounce...!)
    However, I also noticed that MSI is coming out with a newer version of the 970A Gaming, called the 990GFXA Gaming--it's supposed to include the 990FX chipset (instead of the 970FX as is in the 970 Gaming and the G46 and in the Krait.)  The only difference beyond that that I can see is the on-board USB 3.0/3.1 ports (which the Krait has, too.)  But, I figured if I wanted it I can always buy a cheap PCIe/PCI expansion card for it later and wind up with 6-8 3.1 ports for a piddling sum--MSI is using Type A ports for 3.1 as opposed to Type C, ports--and I much prefer A to C.  Besides, NewEgg had no 990FXA Gaming boards in stock or I'd have probably gone ahead and bought it anyway, probably... 
    OK, so about that "difference" between the 970 & the 990 chipsets (northbridge.)...I keep reading that the chipsets roughly breakdown in differences as follows:
    970    A single PCIe slot @ 16 lanes
    990X  Two PCIe slots @ 16 & 8 lanes respectively (8 x8 when used in tandem with xFire/SLI.)
    990FX Two x16 PCIe slots that break down to x16 & 8x when used for xFire/SLI.)
    990GX A 990X that includes an on-board IGP
    (Any further enlightenment is always appreciated)... But by these definitions, then, the 970a s950 boards sold in the 970G, the G46, and the Krait, are not really "970" chipsets, but actually they are 990X chipsets, eh?...
    Anyway...I decided this time on an FX-8320E, which I am sure will last me until something really nice for the upcoming x86 Zen architecture materializes--where AMD once again has a chance to shine brightly in the cpu performance markets.
    OK, I've been very pleased with the board so far--it's what I wanted, actually, not too dissimilar from the 970a-G46.  The boards are a lot a like, but that's A-OK with me because the G46 was a terrific product for the last two + plus years, and as my wife's it is sure to do well for a couple more years at least.
    Now it's Q&A, time:  The caveats are: I'm running Windows 10 build 10074 at the moment and Command Center simply doesn't run.  It tries and sputters but just never opens a window--no compatibility modes I've tried make the slightest difference.  Additionally, I can't get Sound Blaster Cinema 2 to work, either.  It runs, deposits an icon in the systray, but after that does nothing--cannot open a screen or use the software in any way--which is a shame because it looks nice, and the piggy backing of the Creative Labs stuff on top of the Realtek stuff is intriguing...!  It's probably just a temporary expense of running the 10 x64 at the moment, but I thought I'd ask just in case anyone else had experienced something similar and found a work-around.

  • Msi 970 gaming bios issue

    I have update bios for msi 970 gaming to v22.3
    But after this update, the usb 3.0 port of the main not work
    Can you help me

    Quote from: JLio01 on 12-June-15, 07:26:09
    So you keyboard doesn't work with the usb 3.0 port either? All usb devices don't work with these particular ports? Which BIOS version did you update from? using what way?
    Try download the VIA usb3:
    http://www.msi.com/support/mb/970-GAMING.html#down-driver&Win8.1 64
    in the usb 2.0 port, it working fine. I use bios v22.e from msi 970 gaming webpage. My Via usb3 is V4.90a newest. Usually, when boot to windows, the usb 3.0 not work.

  • MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming BIOS Update

    Bought this setup quite a while ago, running a 4670k on the z87 gd65 gaming board and thought about trying a bit of OCing, probably just gonna try out the OC Genie for now, but i was wondering if it would be a good idea to do a BIOS update or is that not necessary? Im still running on bios 1.3 which from what i can see on the msi site is a quite old one.

    Quote from: flobelix on 23-September-14, 01:02:53
    No, 1.3 is too outdated. If wanting to go for latest generation vga get the latest vga (1.B):
    >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
         A.) Download the attached archive (E7845IMS_1B0.rar) and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
         B.) Download and install the Forum flash tool.
         C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
         D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
         E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
         F.) Boot to the USB 
         G.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash
         H.) After flashing reinstall ME drivers in Windows:  http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_amt90_mb.zip
    Thanks Flobelix, running windows 7 but i guess the procedure is still the same, are the ME drivers the chipset drivers? i downloaded the chipset drivers for my OS from the msi site (intel_chipse_9_mb.zip) or is it the "Intel Management Engine Driver+Microsoft hotfix".

  • BIOS UPDATE ERROR of HP G6010EG

    Hello,
    i have a problem updating my old BIOS Version F.1F to F.03, F.07 or newest F.08 (those are the only available bios versions for my Modelnumber on HP
    I always get the error: "This Bios Version is not for your PC / Notebook" if i want to run the update directyl after Installation.
    Alternative:
    Even if I copy the *.WPA (extracted from the downloaded bios-update *.exe installer ) file into the extracted folder of WinFlash64 directory (My Vista is 64-bit), and rename it to "BIOS.WPH" and run the flash util as administrator, i get the following error messages:
    First Error:
    Part ID of System Bios and new Image File are different (system = AT8, file = AT1).
    The System Platfrom may be different from the Image file. Are you sure you want to proceed?
    I click "Yes" and then the Pc freezes with the Error message:
    BIOS update failed! Failed to flash Bios image: Enable Chipset/Platform/FlashDevice failed!
    Incorrect funtion. Error code 1
    See the Help for troubleshooting.
    HP G6000
    Product: HP G6010EG
    p/n gh830ea#abd
    Windows Vista 64bit
    I googled a lot and also read in the forum. I'm quite familiar with computer and never had such issues with a Bios update.
    Hope for help!
    Greetings
    BTW this is the current BIOS-Info that Windows shows up:

    Ok i stop forcing it and wait for help....
    Your Idea of an error in what has been posted could also explain why i could not get the HP G6010EG Wireless-Lan to work with the drivers on the HP Driver Page:
    Atheros Wireless LAN-Treiber 2009-03-04 , Version3.00 A, 18.94M
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=2100&lc=de&cc=de&dlc=de&sw_lang=&product=3545...
    I used a  driver software (freeware) with an external WLan-Card to automatically install the proper internal Wireless Lan Driver so that the Wireless-Lan of the HP G6010EG is working now...
    Saidly this software does not automatically detect a proper BIOS... ;-) :-(

  • 970 Gaming - BIOS resolution too big for screen so can't use it, help!

    My specs, Windows 7 SP1
    MSI 970 Gaming MB
    AMD FX-6350
    ASUS Radeon HD6950
    G Skill DDR3 RAM (16gb at 1600mhz)
    1TB Sata HD
    Everything else display related works fine, windows, games, videos, etc. and as this is a new build, yes all the drivers are upto date. However, I can't use the BIOS as it displays as if its four times the screens size!
    I've taken a pic to illustrate the point and attached it,
    And here is of course, what it should look like for comparison,
    As you can see, not only is the res' totally wrong, but some graphical elements are not displaying properly, like the lack of the red border, button surrounds on the left, boot devices missing, etc. Any ideas please?

    Not every TV acts the same unfortunately.
    My one samsung LCD TV looked better using a VGA cable than HDMI (no idea why, it just did), meanwhile the next Samsung LED TV I got looked much better with HDMI but had strange issues whenever I went into the BIOS (this was from a laptop though).
    Expecting a company to solve a problem with a TV that doesn't properly implement the HDMI spec is a bit ridiculous to be honest.

    Hi
    Welcome to the forum!!!
    I am not sure of the problem but i don't advice you to use errorend or other programs since it will cost you 30$ and there is no assurance if it will work.

  • Satellite A660 BIOS update error

    Have been trying to run the update advised by Toshiba but encounter the following error:
    "There is an error occured, please check below items.
    BIOS version above 2.20
    Battery capacity more than 20%
    A/C is attached
    Confirmed BIOS: TOSHIBA 1.80 09/14/10 listed on system along with SMBIOS: 2.6
    Any ideas on what to do?????

    Hi
    As far as I know this error appears if you use a wrong BIOS version.
    What Satellite A660-xxx do you have?
    The Toshiba European driver page provides a BIOS v2.10 but only for Satellite A660 *PSAW9E* series.
    Please check this!!

  • Satellite A660 - BIOS update error message

    Just tried to update BIOS and get the following error message:
    Installing UEFI winflash 0.02
    The programme will be closed
    There is an error occured, please check below items
    Bios version above 200
    Battery capacity more than 20%
    AC is attached
    Anybody got any ideas?

    The exact same thing keeps happening to me...
    As for the reason I am downloading it: the Toshiba service station is telling me "BIOS version 2.00 for the Satellite A660/A665 is available as a recommended update" So i go ahead and download it. BUUUT, during the install process it opens the Winflash utility and on the second step (right after 'load new bios') it crashes all the time 100% of the time and quits itself always on that same step no matter how I try the install... Also, YES I am sure it is the right BIOS version for my computer, YES I am running it as admin, and NO I do not speak techno fun talk.
    I've tried using a separate Toshiba BIOS launcher: what I believe the original poster used, as I got the same message *except* the message i got was: "There is an error occurred (and it spelled that wrong BTW........ but I digress), please check below items. BIOS version above 190, AC connected."
    I've tried rebooting fresh and going into the folder it downloaded into and same thing happens, and I've tried re-downloading it from Toshiba's website directly; also did the same thing and didn't work.
    Currently I think my computer is on BIOS 1.9 or something like that, and the one attempting to be installed is 2.0. The computer does NOT have any password on any boot-up screen either.
    I hope to get this resolved, especially since the laptop is fairly new and whether the update is needed or not, it should not be malfunctioning this way. I'm reluctant to call a technical service "hotline" as I rarely have good experiences with them.
    Please help!

  • Z77A-GD65 Gaming BIOS Update Problem

    An update to version 25.1 just appeared and when I tried to run it I got an error message saying it's incompatible with 64 bit Windows. This wasn't an issue with 25.0 and there wasn't anything on the download site about the new one being 32 bit only. Has anyone else tried to install this on a 64 bit system ? Because I've been getting some unusual error messages lately and I'm not sure if the problem is with the download or something on my system. Thanks

    I was hoping you saw my reply before you tried that other ME firmware update, as your ME was updated already. The ME firmware and driver are different entities, and they have different version numbers that do not match. That is not a problem.
    All you need to do is look in the UEFI/BIOS System Information and it will tell you what BIOS version is installed along with what ME firmware is installed. When in Windows, you can use CPUID's CPU-Z Mainboard Tab and it too will show the information. Again, the forum flash method took care of the ME firmware flash. There is no need to go through all that multiple flashing baloney. Too much risk involved if for no other reason.
    Did you download the newest CC utility yet? If still no luck, a ticket to MSI is recommended so they can work on an updated version for your mainboard.

  • Satellite R - BIOS update error message

    Hello,
    I tried to update my BIOS, because I have the version 1.70 and the loudness off the fan decreases with 1.80-2.10. The problem is, I get an error: You have not given permission to execute the update. I started the program with the administrator-user so I do not know why this doesn't work. I know somebody else had that problem before, but they haven't searched for a solution.
    I hope you can help me,

    Have you tried logging into Windows using Administrator?
    Also try reinstalling the Toshiba Value Added Package.

  • BIOS update error

    Hi!
    I recently bought a Envy 17-3000. It has been running fine until today. When i started the PC today, it initiated a bios-recovery/update. I haven't cancelled or interrupted this process, it just continues to reboot and start the process all over. I am confused, since i never asked for a new BIOSversion, and now im stuck with a useless PC.
    Someone please help me!

    Thank for your reply!
    Its still under warranty, and on its way to repair. The reason because i wrote in this forum, was that i couldnt find the phonenumber for the support. Maybe im stupid, but i cant find it on the webpage. So i called my dealer, who gave me the number.
    Im still thankful for your advice, but it wouldnt work for me. Removing the battery on my laptop = bye bye warranty.(actually the guy on the supportline told me to do the same thing, until i told him i would lose my warranty).
    Thanks again!
