[FIXED] MSI G33M + Q9400 not working. BIOS update not working either.

Build:
MSI G33M (MS-7357)
2GB Kingston DDR2 RAM (800MHz)
XFX 8600GT 256MB 540Mhz (stock)
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400 (stock)
RaidMax 420W PSU
160GB Seagate sATA HDD 7,200 RPM with WINDOWS 7 BETA
250GB Seagate sATA HDD 7,200 RPM with WINDOWS XP MCE 32Bit
Here's what I sent to customer service:
I have been running my system with the above configuration but with a Intel Core 2 Duo e4400. I recently bought a new Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400 which should be supported by my MSI Mainboard - the G33M which supports LGA775 1333FSB, 45nm, Core 2 Duo and Quad. After installing my new CPU the system would start and the splash screen would appear and I would get the regular 3 system beeps, but then the computer would reboot, and the splash screen would reappear, and it would reboot and this process will continue. I am also unable to get into BIOS. So I put in my old processor for now and it's running fine. The CPU was properly installed and should be running fine but it isn't.
My Friend told me to update the BIOS version but I'm not sure on how to do that or if it will fix it. If you could please tell me what the problem is, and if I need to update the BIOS how to do so. Because when I downloaded the 1.3 BIOS update files off your website they were .exe files and another unfamiliar, unreadable file. The instructions weren't very clear.
Thank-you,
Nick
Today I went through the forums since they haven't responded and I was tired of waiting. I came upon the BIOS Flash Thread https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=116721.0 and I decided to do it. Everything worked fine (by that I mean the preparation process). (I made sure USB Lagacy Support, Boot from other device, USB Controller were enabled and Quick Boot was disabled in BIOS. I even made the boot sequence to boot from the memory stick first.) When I start up I press F11 during POST and select Kingston (memory card) just to be sure. Then I get a screen with a bunch of system information (it seems) and at the bottom it says "Esc to boot... 10 sec" then it counts down to "0" and boots my OS (I have windows XP and W7). It should start up the BIOS update like it says.... But it doesn't... Instead it shows this system info. Does anyone know why?
Please help. Thanks,
Nick P.

I got a new power supply as suggested. The power supply I bought is a 600W OCZ modular, I got a decent price, here's the link http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=33041&vpn=OCZ600MXSP&manufacture=OCZ%20Technology&promoid=1029
I switched to the Q9400 and tried to see if it would load up but no success. So back to the flashing part....
Here's the responce I got from customer service:
This mainboard supports Intel Q9400.Please download the bios files:

How to update BIOS?
1.First of all, please make a booting disk.
2.Next go to our website to download BIOS file, then copy “AFUD4234” and “A7357IMS.130” into the disk.
3.After that, please go to “BIOS setup” and choose booting disk under “boot sequence”.
4.Under DOS mode, please type “AFUD4234 A7357IMS.130” and it will be updated successful!!
Warning:
1. During updating, please stop all working process to avoid update interruption.
2. Please must not cut the power or restart your computer during you flash BIOS!
3. Please also remember to Load Optimized Defaults under bios setup after you finish the BIOS update!
This confuses me: in instructions it says:
"DON'T FLASH FROM A FLOPPY DISK!!!!"
then it talks about making a boot disk and booting from a floppy...?
So do I do this from a floppy (why would I?!?!) or can I just do this from a DVD/CD?
How do I do this on a blank DVD and with what software.
Also, does anyone know what could've happened with the USB drive?
Thanks,
NP

Acer Iconia W3 BIOS update not working

Hi, I have downloaded the new 1.07 BIOS from Acer Support, but when I run the file inside, nothing happens. When I restart the device after this, it starts doing something, but almost immediately tells me it needs to reboot, and nothing happens. My BIOS version is still 1.02, not 1.07. How do I actually use this? Thanks.

Hi Folks, I had same problem with BIOS not updating, and battery stopped charging. My steps: 1. Updated Windows 8 entirely, there were 70+ updates2. Updated Acer Windows 8 drivers3. In BIOS, reset all security settings4. Disable FTPM5. Upgraded one at a time from 1.03 to 1.07 Now my battery works fine. I can't say which of these steps was crtical, but I tried alot of other stuff and these sequence worked for me. I may still take this unit back, but it is appealing that it has HDMI port and separate charging port versus the Dell Venue, albeit the Acer screen is OK versus IPS. Hope this helps,Barry

MSI Live Update not working Windows XP Professional 64bit Edition!!!

Thank you so much. I just want to say I really appreciate when people do take the time to post me in return. So I really mean it, Thank You.
A quick question. You see, I have been upgrading my computer. I installed a Belkin USB USB Card (high speed 2.0) cause I needed more USB ports. Then I checked for compatable RAM and upgraded my RAM from 512MB to 2Gigs. Everything alright.
Now, I have checked for processors that are compatable with my board K9VGM-V (MS-7253). And MSI's chart says mine is compatable with the AMD Athlon 2x 6000 (3.0Ghz) *IF* I use the 89 watt and not the 125 watt. Here is a good URL for the processor details I found:
http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K8/AMD-Athlon%2064%20X2%206000+%20-%20ADA6000IAA6CZ%20(ADA6000CZBOX).html
Now do you have any tips and I will probably have to flash to BIOS for sure after this upgrade won't I?

Qosmio F60-10L Bios is not working

Hey there,
I just bought a Toshiba Qosmio F60-10L.
Now the Bios is not working anymore. Everytime I want to enter Bios menu with "F2" the computer is restarting instantly.
Last week the mainboard has been changed.
But now, after I set a Supervisor password, the problem comes again.
Has anyone an Idea what to do?
Greets marx

Hi
You mean you are not able to access the BIOS or you are not able to boot up the notebook?
I think if you had some problems in the past (you said that motherboard has been changed) then I would assume that this issue might be related again to the same reason which appeared previously
Maybe it would be advisable to ask the guys who have replaced eh motherboard for help
Then could remove the BIOS password or Supervisor password and could update the BIOS if necessary

Do a backup.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

Mac Book Software Update not working, iTune will not update because of that, iPhone 4 won't connect to iTunes because iTunes is not updated. Mac v.10.5.8, iTunes v.10.5.2, iPhone4 iOS 6

Mac Book Software Update not working (Software Update does not have any new software for your computer at this time), my current MacBook version is 10.5.8.
As a result I can't update iTunes, version 10.5.2 (This software requiers Mac OS X version 10.6.8 or later)
Now when I connect my iPhone 4, version iOS 6 iTunes can't connect to iPhone (The iPhone "XXXXX's iPhone" cannot be used because it requiers iTunes version 10.6.3 or later.)
so in a nutshell can't use iphone 4, because iTune is not updated and will not update because Mac Book is not up to date and will not update either.
Please help.
Thank you

Site list update not working with TED and Zenworks for Servers

Product: Zenworks for Desktops 7Sp1 and Zenworks For Server/TED 7Sp1HP5
Subject: Site list update not working with TED and Zenworks for Servers ,
all on Linux
Description: We have an exiting environment with 6 ZfS Servers and now we
brought up a new Server for another location. I configured all same as on
the other Server and the new one created all NAL-Apps at the new location.
But in the Application Site list on the golden App is this Application
missing. So I clicked on the Link up site list on the Distribution Screen
in C1. On ApplicationSite list the App from the new location is missing.
So I removed all and added the new from the new location and now i see all
in the application site list.When I install an app on the client on the
new location NAL is connecting alway th the same (wrong location-server
and i get an msi error 1612 or id=53272 with path=\Wrong serverpath to
file.
I looked on the other tab on C1 at the golden app an I see the backlinks
are going to all other servers without the new one. Software installation
on other locations are ok
Regards

Andreas,
I forgot to mention that you can also set the loging level on the Distributor and the Subscriber to 6. to do this at the Zenworks Server Management prompt type "setconsolelevel 6" if you want to capture this to the log file ted.log then use "setfilelevel 6"
Next delete the Distribution from the Subscriber and then re-push the channel.
What we are looking for here in the log is the creation of the object and the linking information about the gold object. it should look like this (not the failure part ;-))) )
In this excerpt you will see the entry
Golden App =
This should be were the link is to
You can check this both ways in the Golden App and in the Distributed Application.

TS1394 Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)

Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)
Hi, I am currently using Snow Leopard 10.6 on my iMac. I opened iTunes and was told there was an update available so I clicked the button to download it. This obviously opened up the 'download' screen with blue bar. The blue bar does not move and the message comes up that the download failed. I have tried troubleshooting, but the message I get is that I am not connected to the internet - which I am.
Please help.

Check your iTunes version, it's reporting v10.6.3 here on 10.6.8 and no updates required.
You should be able to download it from here

[Bug?] Defer Panel Update not working when changing scale property

Hi,
I found that Defer Panel Update [when True] does not work properly when changing the scale fit property of an intensity graph.
Try the VI.
When Defer Panel Update is True, and you change the Numeric controls, the Intensity graph is not updated (as expected).
But now change the "Z Scale.Scale Fit" button and.... the Intensity graph is updated (only the Z-color, not the axis).
This looks to be a bug to me!

Same issue Network Discovery not working and Windows Update not working

I've read the threads.
This is a Vista Ultimate upgrade. My OOOOH My I have clocked 8 hours
Everything was working before. I tried all of the recommended services turning on restarting.
Also, ran into the problem of my memory being eaten. Suspected cause hibernate mode, which I had to disable. Scott Hasselman blog recommended the fix which is a cheap work around that limits machines functionality!!
I'm and IT Engineer specializing in MS product lines since Windows 1.0. MFC foundation classes etc.. What is the real problem ?
I don't have the NetBIOS over tcp/ip in my services?
I figure that the cost of my time and other individuals pays for the OS four times over. Give me a Microsoft developer subscription or something to make me happy. This is my development machine and I'm loosing time and money.
FYI, Just upgraded my second machine to Windows 8.1 OMG !!2 Hours to upgrade after the download. I loose my configuration settings. I required to have a Windows Live whatever account!!! This is not the way to compete and keep customers.
Windows XP has been by far the best deployment experience. I need a Knowledge base that gives solutions , not a troubleshooting scenario that does or does not work!!
Please , don't tell me to go and by a OEM Surface I cannot recommend this to my clients.

Hi,
If it worked previously, a quick solution is to run System Restore and get back to the previous status when the issue didn’t occur.
What is System Restore?
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/What-is-System-Restore
When you turn on network discovery, do you get any error prompt?
Please check if you have any error message about network discovery in event viewer.
Open Event Viewer
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Open-Event-Viewer
What information appears in event logs (Event Viewer)?
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/What-information-appears-in-event-logs-Event-Viewer
Please use Windows Live SkyDrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com/) to upload the Error logs to a public folder and share the URLs with us.
Also, please temporarily turn off your firewall and all the security programs for a test.
As far as I know, Network discovery requires that the DNS Client, DNS Client, Network Connections, Network Location Awareness, Remote Procedure Call (RPC), Function Discovery
Resource Publication, TCP/IP Netbios helper, SSDP Discovery, and UPnP Device Host services are started and set to automatic.
You should check again if you have started all these services.
Regarding the update issue, I suggest you try the following suggestions.

Windows updates not working because it extract patches on Mac partition first., Windows updates not working because it extract patches on Mac partition first.

I have installed BootCamp 5.1 and Windows updates not working because it extract files on Mac partition before installation. Is there any workaround for same ?

To replicate this issue - Try to download .net framework 4.5 from microsoft website and than run that setup on windows partition.
Before installation. it will first extract all the binaries to a other drivers, since in my case other primary drive is E which is a Mac partition so it always give me an error while extractiing and therefore setup is not able to execute propely.
Let me try to get the screen shot of error and send it here.

Hi the wifi when make update not works good

hi
the wifi when make update not working good
now i cannot turn on wifi the wifi button
can you help me please ????

Hello Riham123,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the wifi button is grayed out and you are unable to toggle it.
I recommend trying the steps in this article:
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
Verify that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Ensure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
If your issue is still unresolved, perform a software restore in iTunes.
All the best,
Sterling
