B75MA-P45 BIOS Update

I wonder if someone could shed some light on this for me. I currently have a B75MA-P45 mainboard, or MS-7798 as live update labels it. Currently it doesnt allow me to get into the bios with my logitech usb keyboard and I have to plug in a ps2 one which kinda irritates me. Having flashed a great many bioses in the past I thought this should be relatively easy. Oh how wrong was I ?
So first of all I install live update from the website which comes under my board section so should in theory work, but when I download all the drivers and click bios II it informs me that it doesnt support that board. ? similarly when I try and execute msi control centre it tells me it doesnt support this board.
So I read in the bios something about winki being able to do it, so I download the image, burn it, start it up and then winki tells me it doesnt support this board.
How is all this possible when I download them from the msi site under my board section? Really, is there not a simple way to do this ?!?!?!
I haven't tried usb stick yet because I dont have one, but I just can't believe there isn't a windows flasher that will work.

Well most of those options mean I have to go and spend money on a usb stick just to upgrade the bios, which I've never had to before. And sure I'll probably get loads of flamers telling me how cheap they are but that's very much besides the point. I've flashed plenty of motherboards from windows before now without incident, you can always verify it before you reboot.
And besides, this does not explain the why it is that click bios 2, control centre and winki all say they do not support my board, and yet they were downloaded from the boards section on the msi site.
Any explanation for this ?
I also flashed lot of boards before without problem but my last try using a windows and this "great" live update utility lead to a bricked board and it was not my fault. I've got BSOD so there was no way to go back. So many things can happen in windows so my recommendation after this xperience is to never flash the bios in windows! The board is now at manufacturer to reflash the chip... A moth lost for me...

The problem is that my new R9 290 doesnt work on the first comp. When pressing the power button the fan of the GPU is maxing and makes alot of noise. Connecting my monitor to the onboard GPU i see the comp is working and is booting into windows. Updating the Bios didnt work and chosing PEG instead of IGP doesnt matter.
To check if the R9 290 is working i put it in comp2. It boots normally, and no problems. I began to wonder if the PSU of comp1 is the problem.
So i Changed the PSU of comp2 to comp1 and pushed the power button. Same as before: alot of noise and not working.
Meanwhile it Boots into windows. Connecting my monitor to the onboard video I can see it boots into windows. But I dont see the R9 290 at all in the hardware device list.
My first conclusion: The XFX R9 290 isnt recognized by the B75MA-P45 Motherboard at all, even when i switch the PSU from comp2.
I need the card to work on comp 1 because that is my computer. (Comp2 I borrowed from a friend for testing).

MSI B75MA-P45 "Reboot and Select proper Boot device"

Hey guys, I just had this PC delivered to me yesterday, pre-built after my specs. Been using their company for a decade and never had an issue (that said, they might very well have screwed up this time, but I would love some feedback).
So, when I plug in the PC and boot it it get stuck at "Reboot and Select proper Boot device" (and in the bottom right it blink between A2/B4 before it gets to the reboot prompt).
What I have done to try to fix this:
1) Go into BIOS and swap around the boot order. No luck with that, and I cannot find the SSD HD on the list either.
2) Confirmed it was set on AHCI mode.
3) Booted with the MSI Motherboard CD to get to Winki. In the Winki file manager I do see the SSD HD with Windows installed! But the BIOS cannot find it.
The specs:
Board: MSI B75MA-P45
Bios: E7798IMS V1.5
VGA: ASUS Geforce GTX660Ti
PSU: Corsair CX 500
Intel Core i7-3770
Corsair Cooling Hydro H55
RAM: Corsair XMS3 Vengeance CL9
Samsung SSD 840 Series 120 GB
Seagate Barracuda 2TB
Win 8
So I'm left a bit dumbstruck here. It seems quite clear the BIOS cannot find the SSD for some reason, but I'm not sure how to sort this?
I mean: I do see Windows in the Winki file manager, so the HD is clearly there and readable. But on the other hand it cannot find it in the BIOS so I can't choose it as a boot drive.
Any suggestions on what might cause this and how I could solve it?
Thank you.

Wow, that was easier than I thought.. after hours of browsing internet, trying all kinds of BIOS settings, eventually I just opened the case and plugged out the SATA cables and plugged them back in. Boom, it works. Didn't expect it to be that easy since the Winki still could see the HD.
Seems BIOS is more sensitive than the Winki. But there you go, problem solved.

As it supports M-FLASH you will (according to MSI) be able to use a USB drive as a BIOS chip and boot the computer,
This info is taken straight from your motherboards page at msi.com
M-Flash
Compared to common motherboard which need extra BIOS chips, MSI’s M-Flash has a double advantage which doesn’t need extra components and secondly, all your BIOS data will be saved in the USB drive. The stored data does not only have backup and upgrade function, moreover it can also be seen as a portable BIOS chip which is actually able to boot up your PC.

B75MA-E33 - long time to post after installing most recent bios update

I installed the bios update from the product page for this motherboard and flashed it directly from the utility within the bios. It installed fine, but after installing this update the post time has increased from about 10 seconds to anywhere between one and five minutes. It sits on the screen with the "A2" code in the bottom right corner before loading the msi splash screen. I searched the forum but didn't see anyone else reporting this. Anyone have any idea what's causing this? I verified that the settings in the bios haven't changed.

Solution? Thanks? This is not your thread. Topic starter has been asked to post system details.
I guess you misunderstood my post.What I was that I have a similar motherboard and I was planning on updating the BIOS.He reported about this issue and I'm thankful to him for that.

B75MA-P45 with celeron g1610?

I bought IB Celeron G1610, and planning to buy B75MA-P45. My question is will it work with this MB? On CPU support list, for this board, is not listed, maybe the list isn't populated or something...

Best to ask MSI. http://us.msi.com/service/PreSaleForm/
That CPU was released this year, last BIOS update for that MB was December of last year so no telling whether that CPU would work or not, probably not or if it does it would not be fully supported and would possibly have problems with it.
Edit: I just did a bit of a search at MSI and from the list of MB's that support that CPU I found this B75 part of the list:
B75A-E33
B75A-G41
B75A-G43
B75IA-E33
B75MA-E33
B75MA-G43
B75MA-P45
So apparently it is supported and MSI has not updated CPU support list since Dec last year.

Upgrading graphics card in B75MA-P45 system

I have a B75MA-P45 based system with basic msi / nvidia graphics card (630) I think. The system runs Win8x64 nicely.
I have tried upgrading the graphics card to amd 7850. With the new card, the system never shows the normal bios splash screen. It can, however, get to Win8 after a bit of patience, if I disable secure boot.
The bios is 1.3B9. I note that the latest bios (1.5) is said to have improved PCI-E display card compatibility.
I am wary of updating the bios because a lot of the uefi-style settings seem to be undocumented in the motherboard manual (notably those relating to secure boot, win8 certification, compatibility modes, key generation, etc).
What is my best strategy for trying out the new bios without losing all the bios settings, keys, etc, that currently work, with a view to reverting to the existing bios / settings if necessary?

If you update you will in any case loose all current bios settings, CMOS will be cleared. You can take screenshots in UEFI to set again what was set before. Reflashing to the prior bios would require asking for here as downgrading requires a special file.
If you decide to flash >>1.5<< >>use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<

Problem with B75MA-P45

Guys:
I've got a B75MA-P45 LGA 1155 with an intel core I5 3450, but I want to install win7, appears error 0xc00000e9 and then reboot.
The hard disk is a Western digital WD5000AAKX 500 GB 7200 16 MB Sata 3, new.
In the BIOS, I changed from SATA to IDHE in advanced options, and then I could install windows.
The questions is why that happens?

Yes. But it doesn´t work.
I Tried to install win7 in the HD, but in my old PC, and It worked.
When I conected the HD to B75MA-P45, It stop in starting windows, and reboot.
After that, I changed the BIOS config (IDHE to SATA in advanced options), and windows worked.
I think that shouldn't happen....

MSI Motherboard B75MA-P45 (Cold Boot up)

I am having a problem with booting up first thing in the morning. When I power-up my computer will start to and then shut down. If I reset or manually hit the power button after that it will work fine for the rest of the day. The problem occurs only when the computer has been shut down for five hours or more. Does anyone have an idea why this is happening? My motherboard is a B75MA-P45.

Make sure this is your board: http://www.msi.com/product/mb/B75MA-P45.html#/?div=BIOS
IF so, >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
Use option 1 of the tool and point it at the compressed archive I attached then at your fat 32 formatted usb stick.
Then boot to the usb stick and proceed with flash.
If no help, let us know more info.

I want to thank you for all the help. As of now this has seemed to do the trick. Turned on computer this morning without a problem.

Problems after BIOS update on DKA790GX Platinum

Hi,
I have set up a pc with the DKA790GX Platinum (MS7550). The config:
- Phenom 8750
- Silverstone 400W PSU (fanless)
- 2x2GB Crucial PC5300
- Pioneer Blu-ray
- Seagate Momentus 5400.4
(this is a HTPC setup...)
The pc started up fine and I installed the OS. I had the board connected to my monitor through HDMI.
After updating the BIOS the board went all black on me. I tried connecting a floppy-drive to recover to a older BIOS-version, but could get the board to do that. I then tried different monitor-connections, but nothing.
I then installed a Gigabyte Radeon HD 4870 1GB-board I had laying here, and board seems to boot somehow - all graphics are messed so I can't read whats on the screen, but at least I get some kind of image. A little unsure on how the PSU handle that videoboard.
Anyone know if the 1.2 BIOS-update maybe is set to <swearing removed> the integrated video by looking for a videoboard in the system? Have a Asus 9800GT Matrix-board in a another pc here - maybe I remove that and try it in the new pc, but... argh..
This ain't funny at all anymore. I had a P45 Platinum dying during a BIOS upgrade. I had a P45 Diamond that dosn't want to boot anymore, and now this... MSI-motherboards really don't want to be friends with me at the time :-|

Hi have exactly teh same problem,
On Dec/2008 I have set up a PC with DKA790GX Platinum (MS7550 ver 1.2), Phenom 9750, 1 120GB hd, 4 MB corsair xms2 ddr2 800mhz, psu 500w. I installed the win xp pro OS. I had the board connected to my monitor vga. After updating the BIOS (with live update utility) the board went all black on me (the fan, PSU, hd starts normal). I test the PSU, HD and the memory, but the problem still continue.
Two days after, the PC start normal, but I don't know what was the problem.
Aleatory when try to start the PC, sometimes I get exactly the same problem, but, Yesterday, I try again to work with me PC and now i have the same problem.
What can i do to fix this problem?

Changing processor- Is there any bios update to do?

hye, before this, i'm using intel core 2 duo e6300. but i have change to intel QX9650. is there any bios update i have to do to avoid any conflicts.
btw, i'm using windows xp professional. i heard that msi motherboard will update the bios automatically when the processor is changed. is that true?
if not, what i have supposed to do right now?

According to the CPU-Support List...
http://global.msi.eu/index.php?func=prodcpu2&prod_no=1479&maincat_no=1&orderby=cpu_name%20ASC#menu
...the P45 Platinum officially supports the Intel QX9650 since BIOS v1.0. So basically, in terms of processor support, you do not need a newer BIOS to make sure the QX9650 is initialized and handled properly by the system. If you do not have any problems with your system and everything appears to be functioning just fine, a BIOS Update is not absolutly necessary at the moment.
In case you need to update your BIOS in the future, please do not use MSI Live Update or any other Windows based flashing applications. Instead, >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<, which will automatically prepare an USB Flash Drive for a save BIOS Flash from a plain DOS Environment, which remains the safest method for that kind of procedure. Of course, you should ensure that your system is running 100% stable before a BIOS Update even becomes an options. What you don't want and need is a system crash during the flashing procedure (which will most likely render your board useless).

Secondly, your (cheap) mainboard is not suitabe for 32GB RAM (even DDR3-1333).
Finally, try the following:
