Bios crash during update

I tried to update my bios on my P965 Neo but halfway through my computor suddenly stopped . After several hours I turned it of since nothing happened. After this nothing works, not even a the white marker on the screen appears. Is it possible to relod the bios in some way or do I have to send it in for repair?
Please help me with this issue.
Regards
Peter

This worked for me, so you should give it a try:
1. turn on the machine.
2. press the restart-button on you cabinet and wait a few secons
3. Hold theOn\Off button in 'til tha machine stops.'
4. Turn on the machine and enter BIOS
5. set to "optimised deafults"
6. save & exit
7. reboot and enter BIOS
8. disable\enable and tune your BIOS so it fits you system (things like disabling the onboard audio if you have a PCI soundcard etc.)
I'm not shure if you have to restart the computer before you can tune it like normal, but I had to.
And one other thing that I had to do was to boot up with overclock, because the SPU was set to run at 1,6GHz.  (E6600 normaly runs at 2,4GHz)
Good luck!

  • Bios recovery for HP dv5-1235dx/Vista (64-bit) crashed during update

    My HP Pavillion dv5-1235dx which ran windows vista (64-bit) crashed while updating bios (after my old bios was deleted).  I have tried the start+b+power trick to recover but that option did not work.  HP Support suggests to create a usb key to install bios, however I have repeatedly failed in recovering/installing bios because the instructions are very limited. They mention a "create a usb key" option that I have yet to find that would make the key.  After using the HP UEFI BIOS Update SoftPAQ and extracting files from the bios .exe file, I found the following:
    1 folder (sp45138) with contents below
    3602F21.fd
    3603F21.fd
    ding (wave sound)
    InsydeFlash (application)
    InsydeFlash (text document)
    iscflash.dll
    iscflash.sys
    iscflashx64.sys
    platform (configuration settings)
    So, my questions are as follows:
    Where is the mystery "create a usb key" button?
    What files should I have installed on my usb drive?
    Does anything have to be renamed or formatted?
    Thanks for any help given!

    Hello Ceelion21.  I understand you're trying to recover your computer from a failed BIOS flash.
    I see this question get asked a lot so I have made sure to bookmark the instructions which I found on another website.  Here is a link.
    You should be able to download the BIOS file from HP Support.  I believe you'll need to use an application such as 7-Zip to extract the BIOS file and locate the *.FD file.
    If this doesn't work you'll likely need to have the notebook repaired.  If you'd like to inquire about a repair through HP Support and are in the US/Canada you can give them a call at 1-800-474-6836.  If you're in another part of the world you'll need to visit HP Support Worldwide to get your region's contact information.
    Let me know the result of the BIOS recovery.  I hope you have an excellent night!
    Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"

  • X58 Pro BIOS Crash during Boot

    Hi All,
    I have recently assembled a system with X58 Pro board and Core i7 920. It was working fine for 3 months except that it started having BIOS crashes since last night. The issue is that the mainbaord lights would be on without the POST screen and within few seconds the system resets automatically. The same procedure happens for about 4-6 cycles and on the 7th cycle i get a message on screen saying the previous overclocking has failed and the BIOS is reset to default settings. Post then the system boots up normal and works just fine. But once the system is shut down and when the system is switched on(cold boot) I get the same problem. I have also noticed that a month back the CPU clock had jumped from default 2.66 to 2.67 automatically without any overclocking and just couple of weeks after that the clock rose up to 2.87. It has remained like that until the BIOS crash issue. All these happened without any manual overclocking.  I was wondering how can this happen automatically unless the clock speeds are adjusted manually. That was quiet strange though. Neways after this issue(BIOS Crash) popped up the clock speed is back to 2.67 than the default 2.66. Weird again. The BIOS version is the default one(V7.0) that was shipped with the mainboard. I tried to M-Flash the BIOS to V7.3(after reading couple of postings from the forum) but without success. The same problem still persists. I have done the following things after going through the forums regarding the issue.
    1. Cleared CMOS using the clear CMOS button(With power chord unplugged)
    2. Tried M-Flashing to V7.3 (Not sure whether the BIOS was updated during the process)
    I kindly request all of you so provide some solutions so as to get my system back to normalcy. Your worthwhile suggestions would be really appreciated. The system config is mentioned below
    Core i7 920 @ 2.66 GHz
    MSI X 58 Pro - BIOS Version 7.0
    Corsair 6 GB(3 x 2 Gigs) DDR3 @ 1066 MHz (installed on the black slots currently)
    EVGA GeForce GTX 295 1.7 GB GDDR3
    Tagan 1100 W PSU
    2 x 1 TB Seagate Sata HDD @ 7200 RPM w 32 MB cache
    Sony Optiarc DVD-RW Drive
    Windows XP 64Bit SP2
    Looking forward for some positive solutions

    Hey NovJoe,
    Thanks a lot for your reply. I have done as per your suggestion and the system works fine now. Pretty interesting though. During the individual RAM tests i did not face any BIOS crashes and i thought the MOBO DIMM SLOTS would be faulty. So i installed the second RAM strip on the second slot worked fine and finally the third one and works fine too. I am really wondering wht had happened in the first place. Was that due to any dirt or dust in the memory and DIMM contacts? Well neways i am kinda relieved now. But i wanna make sure that everything works fine. What types of tests do you suggest to make sure that the system is working almost fine??
    Thanks a lots
    Regards

  • Apple tv crashed during update

    My apple tv has crashed during an update. I has got stuck on step 1 of 2 preparing to update.
    I may have caused this by trying to use during update.
    Should i unplug and start over
    Thanks

    You are not supposed to use while it is downloading and applying the update. It's very likely to have caused the issue. I don't think you can just unplug and start over, though you may try.
    I would suggest grabbing a micro USB cable and restoring in iTunes, which will also download the latest update

    Unfortunately a power outage at just the wrong time during updating process means that there is now no alternative but to take device to a Nokia Care point to re-install the firmware.

  • Ipod will not restore crashed during update

    ipod crashed on update and will not work. it said to do a restore but I have tryed 2 times and both times the restore didn't work

    I just did the install of 2.0.02 last and I had one dickens of a time restoring my library. Here is what happened to me. Right before doing the update it tells you that all of your music, videos etc.. will be removed from the Ipod Touch once the update is done installing. So I found a DVD and burned my library to it. Then I went ahead and did the install. It clean my Ipod Touch clean, but my iTunes library was still intact so I thought all will have to do is resync it but that didn't work. I tried and tried. I disconnected my external HD. Oh yeah by the way this is a new computer that I just bought and last night was the first time I used iTunes on it so I had to populate my library using iGadget.
    Anyway, I realized that I didn't have manually manage my iTunes library unchecked I unchecked it and it began to sync the back up copy I had of my library. Did either of you back up your library before installing 2.02? Do you have a place where most of your music is stored outside of iTunes? You cannot have Manually manage library checked it won't restore if you do. Be aware though 96% of my cover art was gone with this restore. How annoying. I don't know if this is the information you were looking for but I hope I have been able to shed some light on the issue.

  • Itunes crash during update all apps or even a few apps at a time in windows

    My itunes crashes when I click "update all apps" or even when I just update manually a few apps at a time.  Its not related to the version of itunes it seems the issue has occured during the passed few versions.  I've tried logging off the store account and relogging in.  I've reinstalled itunes.  I've uninstalled all apple programs from the pc and itunes and reinstalled everything fresh. I've deleted the library files and let itunes create new ones and the issue still persists. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hi dj_alien,
    If you are having an issue with iTunes for Windows quitting unexpectedly during use, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • IMac Crashes during updating of thumbnails

    My daughter's iMac 24 (8,1 from 2008) had a problem last week.  Took it to Apple.  They first said it was the HD, then said it was the video card. They called and said they could not boot from the HD, but could from external (which they couldn't do before the video card was replaced.  Asked to wipe the HD, which was fine since I have a TM back up (and a SuperDuper back-up at work).  They said not to restore everything from TM, but to only restore apps, then bring things over manually....something a possible software issue.
    Fired up the iMac, brought over movies and documents.  During the process to move the photos, the iMac crashed.  Long story short, I moved the library from TM to the pictures folder today.  It took a few hours (lots of photos).  Opened iPhoto and it said it was updating thumbnails.  Before the progress bar moved, the iMac rebooted.  I reopened iPhoto and clicked "finish later" re the thumbnails.  The library opened, all the folders/albums were there, but no thumbnails.  The photos seemed fine.
    I then restared iPhoto holding down option-command.  I first repaired permissions, then it went to the indexing of the thumbnails.  No progress on the status bar and the gear stopped spinning and the iMac rebooted.
    Again, option-command and I tried to rebuild the database (the fourth choice on the list).  It took less than 10 seconds and the iMac rebooted.  The crash report is below. 
    I used iPhoto Library Manager (3rd party program) to rebuild the library as well.  That seems to have worked (it's still going).  Anyone see anything in the report that would be of concern?  I'm thinking that perhaps I have a bigger problem than the video card (perhaps a logic board issue).
    Thanks in advance.

    They said not to restore everything from TM, but to only restore apps, then bring things over manually....something a possible software issue.
    Not sure what this is about or what it means with reguards to iPhoto or what you did to "bring things over manually"
    But the iPhoto library is a SQLite database and must always be treated as a single entity - you can not not manually resotre pieces of it and use it - you must use the Time Machine application and restore the iPhoto library intact as one single restore

  • PC crash during update of iPod

    I have an iPod touch 3G that I received for Christmas 2009 that I had connected to my PC (Windows XP Pro) for re-syncing files and was notified of an update to the iPod software. I started the download and during the update process my PC overheated and shut down. Now the iPod is always showing the Apple icon (the power switch does not turn the unit off) and the PC no longer recognizes the device when I attach it with the cable. Is there a way to reload the OS, or is my iPod toast?

    Ok but frankly speaking this is very inefficient way of resolving this kind of  issue. (Thankfully it doesn't require a reinstallation of OS)
    Btw, I cleaned up some folders in Adobe install folder (also updated OS to 10.8.2, not because Aam crashed but due to other reasons) and now I'm through this issue
    Thanks for the support!

  • Trouble downloading Snow Leopard sw updates- system crashes during update installs. I'm only trying to get to the AppStore to download

    I've upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard... fine.
    Installing the system updates (the AppStore isn't in the Snow Leopard install, just available via a system update)
    The updates appear to have downloaded ok, then the system restarts to install, and .... CRASH. All's I'm trying to do is legally get to Lion.
    I have a 15" Macbook Pro, 2gb ram, dual core Intel, 120gb drive.
    Should I re-install Snow Leopard, or anyone have any good ideas?  I suppose it could even be a hardware problem of some sort, but the system seeems stable unless I try to do the sw updates.
    Please help!
    Thanks all!

    dual core Intel   /    All's I'm trying to do is legally get to Lion.
    Lion requirements:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    From here > Apple - OS X Lion - Technical specifications
    Click your Apple icon top left corner of your screen then from the drop down menu click: About This Mac
    If it doesn't say:  Intel Core 2 Duo  
    Then you can't upgrade the Mac to Lion.

  • Computer crashed during update and now I can't access iTunes Store!

    Hi! I was going to update my iTunes to the latest version, but my computer crashed halfway through. Ever since then, I can't access the iTunes store! I don't know whether trying to update it again would fix the issue?
    Also, when choosing to update it brings me to the "download iTunes" page, it looks like the page you go to when you first download iTunes, and I don't want it to just download a new iTunes and not update my current one. I don't want it to affect my library.

  • MacBook crashed during update - will not boot

    My wife was using iTunes and was prompted to do seven updates on our MacBook. She was told to hold in the power button during the update, and the machine reset.
    Now the machine will not boot and just accesses the CD/DVD drive over and over.
    Does anyone here have any ideas?

    Alright, I was able to fix it.
    I had to download the Firmware Restoration image for Intel based MacBooks onto my Windows XP machine. I then used a demo of the program 'UltraISO' to burn the .dmg image.
    The macbook was turned on, the disc inserted. Then the macbook was powered off, and powered back on. This time I held in the power button until the long tone and gray screen appeared.
    The folks at the Apple Store had no other suggestion other than paying $183 for AppleCare. They need to spend less time telling customers how reliable Macs are and a little more time burning copies of this restoration disc!

  • ITunes 7.0.2.16 Crashing during "Updating library"

    Hello,
    iTunes 7.0.2.16 seems to install just fine, along with Quicktime. My problem comes when I open iTunes. It wants to update my library (I do not know why), and I seem to have no control over preventing it from doing so.
    Anyway, it proceeds to nearly finish. Within' the last 5% or so, it crashes. The box that appears is one of those "Would you like to send this crash information to Microsoft" boxes that give little more than techno garble about what the error could possibly be.
    I haven't found anyone else experiencing this problem yet. I've tried uninstalling iTunes and Quicktime both, and reinstalling. But to avail.
    Can anyone help?

    the library update may be crashing on a song file (or files).
    tracking down which file is associated with this can be a trial. but some folks have been having some success using Roy B's technique from the following post:
