MSI z77a GD80 PCI-e running at 8x and Bios update problem

Hi guys, first of all, sorry for my bad English, this is also my first topic, i recently bought a new PC, the spec is:
i7 3770k @4,3ghz
Corsair H80
MSI z77a GD80 bios 1.2
GTX 680 lightning
8gb ddr3 1600mhz cas9 G.Skill
1TB HDD WD Caviar Black
Asus xonar DX
The problem is, since the first bios, i can't run my PCI-E at 16x, i know when my card is idle the PCI-E goes to 1.1@4x , but when it's in use, it turns to PCI-E 3.0@8x , I'm also waiting for bios updates to check if it solves my problem, but when i try to download the new version 1.3, the download fails ( I'm trying to download with Live update 5 )m is there somebody that can help me solve this problem pls?
I've tried until now:
Replace the card into the first PCI-E slot again
Clear the PCI-E slot
Update to bios 1.1 and 1.2 ( 1.3 is not even downloading )
Set PCI Gen 3 from Auto to disable, and it keeps running with PCI-E 3.0@8x
Thx for any help !

As per the manual, the VGA must be in the primary slot to run 16X. BIOS setting for graphics 3.0 should be set to Auto.
Do not use Live Update for BIOS updates. Too many borked boards are the result. Use the forum's USB method;
>> Forum Flash Method <<
Just curious. If I installed Add-on card that run at PCI-E 4X on 3rd slot (2nd slot is empty) what's configuration will apply ?

KT4 Ultra-B BIOS Update problem

Well, I runned Live Update BIOS and found out that I didn't have the newest version. So i downloaded the newest (1.4), and followed the instruction for the installation. After it was installed, every thing seemed okay. Untill I started the PC, then I got an 'error' message:
CMOS Settings Wrong
Press F1 to Run SETUP
Press F2 to load default values and continue
I checked the CMOS Settings, nothing I could find was wrong. So everytime I start the PC I have to press F2, or else it won't start, it will just jump back to that message. This is not so much of a problem, but when I have to use the default values from now on it _IS_ a problem, because default FSB is 100MHz, and I loose alot of CPU. I now have AMD Athlon 1500+ 1,35GHz because of that BIOS update. What I really should have is AMD Athlon 2200+ 1,8GHz.
So anyone that could help me with this problem ??

There is a reason why it did not work.
When you buy a board and put a CPU in it, the board may not detect the CPU correctly,
So if your cpu was a 1470Mhz Athlon and the board detected it as 2.2Ghz what would happen?
The CPU would try to run at 2200Mhz and blow up
So manufacturers such as MSI set the CPU FSB to 100Mhz, must modern CPUs run at 166Mhz so by having it at 100Mhz you prevent the board from overclocking the CPU.
Do you see how that is a safety feature?
Now when you flash a BIOS you clear all your settings and the board gets reset to the safety defaults (100Mhz). This also happens when you clear the CMOS using the jumper, thats why it did not work
I assume someone else originally setup the motherboard and CPU settings for you?

H8-1414 does not boot due to bios update problem

Hi, I did a BIOS update on my desktop last night , now it does not boot up and the motherboard send 8 long beeps with no video output. It seems that 8 beeps correspond to motherboard BIOS problem I was pressing ESC and F10 keys to enter Bios settings but no luck...always 8 beeps and no video. Need to access BIOS setting on the screen or do BIOS reset but don't know how to do it on this case. Any help ?...Thanks!

Hi buddy,
You should check the forum content or with other words, use the forum search firstly before you ask something. Failed BIOS update is not unusual and can happen always. The forum contains already a lot threads about this and the only solution is contacting an ASP. The guys have professional tools to recover it.

Thinkpad Yoga BIOS Update Problem after installing Windows 10

Hi all, I've been reading tonnes of threads here trying to solve my problems (which seem to keep getting worse) to no avail. I'm reaching out to anyone that can suggest some help before I end up bricking my yoga by accident or running it over on purpose. I'll give you a timeline of the events. The machine in question is a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 12.5" 20CD-0032USIntel Core i5 4200U 1.60GHz Processor4GB Ram128GB SSDWindows 8.1 64 Bit preloaded (recently upgraded to Windows 10) So the saga begun just a short two days ago. I had some spare time at home and decided to download and install my free upgrade to Windows 10. I backed up all of my important documents etc to OneDrive as I intended on performing a clean install. Said clean install went flawlessly with Windows 10 installing the first time with no issues or errors. Since I had performed a clean install, all my previous apps, including the stock Lenovo apps, had been deleted. I had anticipated this and only really desired to reinstall the app that automatically adjusts the screen orientation when folding the cover back. So in an effort to find this app and any Windows 10 related updates that may be available I went to support.lenovo.com and used the handy Lenovo Bridge app to automatically detect my hardware and suggest relevant updates. While combing through the suggested software I noticed a BIOS update that noted added support for Windows 10. How great, I thought, that Lenovo would have a BIOS update ready so quickly once 10 became ready for mass consumption. I went ahead and downloaded the exe version (not the bootable CD due to the lack of CD drive on the Yoga) and ran the BIOS update. As I ran the update the laptop was plugged in, and no errors were presented, a success message appeared and indicated a reboot was necessary, after a couple seconds the system rebooted itself. Enter nightmare level 1. As soon as the system rebooted, I fired up IE about to look for more updates and......BSOD stating that there was and issue with a driver, after another reboot BSOD again with a completely different file name stating driver file missing or corrupt. Sorry I didn't write any of the file names or errors down. At this point I'm thinking that something is not jiving here between the BIOS and OS. So I tried running repair, and recovery and each time I would end up with a BSOD of some design. It was at this point I made a USB with the Windows 10 x64 ISO from Microsoft in an attempt to run the repair utilities from the USB. Again to no avail. Enter nightmare level 2 After attempting multiple tries at recovering Windows 10 and getting multiple BSOD's through the process I decided to use my Windows 10 USB to simply reformat my hard drive to eliminate any traces of my now apparently corrupt OS and do a fresh install of Windows 10. This appears to have been a significant error on my part. Now I have no OS (BIOS is still intact so at least I think I have a not-bricked motherboard) and everytime I try to boot Windows 10, or 8.1 for that matter, from a brand new USB stick I get constant BSOD's.Sometimes I get as far as the Preparing installation files 22% but am interrupted by a BSOD error at some point. So I am pleading for some help here. To me it seems like the BIOS update was the issue. I was not smart enough to have checked the BIOS version before updating so that I would know what to roll back to safely. What would you all recommend for a rollback and how do I go about doing one with no OS on the machine. I know I'm asking for a tl;dr here but appreciate any advice offered. I really dont want to get to nightmare level 3, which I guess would be a bricked laptop and a bill for a new motherboard or laptop. The BIOS I currently have is GQET45WW (1.25) -Garrett

Thanks for the reply ColonelONeill, It turns out that Lenovo uses an obscure PERL disk image called "eltorito". As such the directions in the link you provided did not work as most common tools (WinZip, 7zip, and WinRAR) cannot extract the image file from an eltorito iso file. I instead just bucked up for a $50.00 Asus USB CD drive and burned the iso for version 1.25 and 1.24 onto discs. I then disabled the setting in the BIOS that prevents rolling back to a previous version and flashed to 1.24 from the disc. While this appeared to go successfully, as soon as I tried to boot from my Windows 8.1 CD I start receiving BSOD's again during installation. I then used the CD with 1.25 to go back to where I was in case it was simply a bad BIOS update at the time. Most of the BSOD's are driver related (qlfcoei.sys) which I don't understand since there is no OS other than what is on the bootable CD (or USB I've tried both) Is there anyone with a stable install of Win 8.1 x64 or 10 x64 running on a 20CD0032US that can tell me what version of BIOS they are running? My next step is to go back to a version that someone else can verify is working. Thanks again for any help.

Qosmio G30-162 - BIOS update problem

Hi, I have a problem with updating the BIOS on a Qosmio G30-162 which appears to be running the following version: -
Version 1.20
DMI Version 2.3
BIOS date 01/21/06
Every time I run the V3.90 update it says that it is not valid for this machine.
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
Many thanks
The BIOS update I am trying to run is V3.2.9 (P0038v390.exe)
When I run the files the update says that "This computer is not supported".
Many thanks

PauPau, many thanks for your help - absolutely spot on
Still not sure how that module was uninstalled as it was a factory install of XP MCE!
However, BIOS updated successfullky after download and install of Toshiba Common Module 6.04.00

BIOS Update problem, T15-j1000

Hi, i have a problem when i tried to upgrade mi BIOS with the sp6500.exe, but it crash, and my laptop doesnt start anymore. i Tried with a usb and the HP TOOLS and my laptop still dead....
I have a Chipmax 2 of EETOOLS, so i can reflash the w25q64fvsig chip whit the bios file (*.bin or *.fd) but the files i got from HP.com doesnt work (01961.bin and 01966.bin) , i think it must be encripted, decripted or assemble with some algorithm, because i have 2 pairs of files, (01961.bin & 01961.s12) and (01966.bin & 01966.s12)
The question is: how i get the *.bin for reflash the chip w25q64fvsig through these combination of files? Can any one solve this little problem?
I need just the instrucctions for assemble this file, and the problem is solved!
Thanks, and best regards!

BIOS update problem with satellite C660

I have a satellite C660, and was sent a ' ''BIOS update C660 Version 1.80'', but when I try and install it this message comes up:
''THE PROGEAM WILL BE CLOSED
There is an erroroccured,please check the below items.
BIOS version above 180
Battery capacity more than 10%
AC is attached''
The AC is attached and there is also plenty of battery power, so what more can I do ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Please post your full model number found on the bottom of your lap top. Does any one ever read any of the messages posted before posting a new message??
Dokie!!
IMHO if your not having a problem, you don't need to up date the BIOS. That is a very serious procedure and can end in a bricked PC if not done exactly right.

Equium A60 BIOS Update Problem

Hiya All.
I wonder if this Community can help me?
I have been trying for ages (weeks) to try and flash my BIOS with an upgrade for my Toshiba Laptop. It is a Toshiba Equium A60.
I can get it to load Windows 98 (except that it tells me that the USB devices wont work because of conflicts in the BIOS)
My friend has exactly the same Laptop, and the BIOS Version is V1.9 and mine is V1.65 To me, this very simply means that mine is out of date!
I have downloaded the newest BIOS Version from Toshiba’s website, and they say to execute the .exe file by using 1.4 Floppy Drive. This I do not have !
You can also execute this file in Windows, except that in Windows 98 it tells me I have an error! “Failure_DLL DetecChipset”
I have Googled this, and the only website that has the same error code is in German! And although Google will let you translate it, it don’t tell me anything!
As a last resort, I thought I could burn a CD, make that into a bootable disk, and add the Toshiba file to it.
Tried this with BartsPE but this is based on Windows XP and I cannot load XP, it gets as far as the XP Logo, then freezes. This is why I suspect the BIOS requires an update.
So, after more Googling, I have finished up at this website, hoping to make a Boot Disk, with the Toshiba Flash Files attached, but it has to be done in “Windows 98” and not XP
So………… that is my problem, anyone have any ideas please?
My mail if you wanna suggest any fixes [email protected]

Hi Conrad
Can you please tell me why you made BIOS updates? Did you have any problems? I use my unit almost two years and I didnt make any BIOS update till now. If everything works well it is not necessary to make any update except for some Microsoft updates that make OS safer. Dont make any update if it is not necessary.
Anyway, I am very confused with your issue. Normally Recovery DVD must not be updated. BIOS updates are useful if there is some hardware conflict or problem and not problem using OS or any software.
It will be interesting to know why you make recovery procedure every time after BIOS update.

At that point you will see choices that include "Legacy Support:. UEFI and EFI will not be enabled at the same time, together so your screen display is as it should be when set to UEFI boot mode control. I would suggest some reading and research into the differences to gain a clear understanding of the options.

If you are in your BIOS setup screen, on the main page you will see four entires at the top.Product Name::BIOS Version:EC Version:Lenovo SNThe BIOS Version, EC Version and Lenovo SN will help us determine which BIOS update we should choose between 2 different versions depending on the manfacturer of the motherboard. The Serial number will tell us what we need for discovering the manufacturer information. A “WBxxxxxxxx” or similar serail number indicates the motherboard is Wistron. A “CBxxxxxxxx” or simialr serial nubmer indicates the manufacturer is Compal. Additionally the Wistron motherboard BIOS version will be simialr to 62CNxxWW, Compal BIOS version number will be simialr to 5ECNxxWW. Once you have determined which motherboard is present you can look for and download the proper bios updates from Lenovo support site. As another option you can call Lenovo tech support, provide them the serial number and have them assist you with the process.

G580 bios/update problem - no updates for years

Hi there.
I have a G580 i5-3210M @2.50GHz with 8gb ram running on Windows 7 64-bit. The model # is 2189.
I have had enormous problems updating drivers on the pc for a while, and I can give specifics of errors/drivers if that helps. One big problem I've found is using diagnosis software CPUID CPU-Z, my motherboard comes up as "Manufacturer: LENOVO", "Model: INVALID" / "00000000INVALID". I'm not sure how this contributes to my errors, but it definitley worries me.
Well, during a late night search for an updated BIOS, I found and accidently installed 5ecn96ww (v.9.01) BIOS update, which is for WINDOWS 8 and not WINDOWS 7. The system wouldn't start, so I went into the BIOS and switched onto Legacy Mode, which has allowed me to use the laptop normally (to my knowledge).
Long story, short request: How can I get my laptop back to factory settings (including factory BIOS) and start over with a fresh windows 7. Does OneKey Recovery reset the BIOS as well?
Thanks.

hi ahmedgad,
Welcome to the Forums.
Can you try to:
1. Boot into the BIOS by repeatedly tapping F2 on startup
2. In the BIOS, navigate to the Boot Tab and set UEFI to Disabled or Legacy then press F10 to save and exit. When
the computer reboots, check if you still get the errors and/or if you're able to boot into Windows.
3. If same problem, leave the changes that you made on Step 2 and attempt to re-install Windows via a Windows 8 recovery drive or OneKey Recovery button (note that this will wipe the computer to factory settings)
Let me know your findings,
neokenchi

N500 Bios Update Problem

Hi, I have just updated my N500 with the 1.03 version of the BIOS, and right after, the computer just won't start, it goes as far as the start display of windows XP and then a bulk memory error makes it re-start. What can I do, or how do I come back to the original BIOS.
Thanks
---Never mind, it was just a missconfiguration of BIOS----
Message Edited by im38066 on 01-15-2009 05:16 PM

Thanks. I will look into Winplash for installing the BIOS update under DOS.
Meanwhile, I have a related question:
Has anybody installed successfully Lenovo's latest BIOS update version 1.07 for the N500 under Win XP ?
The little that its documentation says about ver 1.07 is that "...it corrects for "some problems" and expands functionality..."
I suppose that if they already are at version 1.07 only five months after 1.03 came out, it may well be that one of "the problems" was that earlier versions were indeed misconfiguring the BIOS and causing users to return their N500's for refunds or exchanges. LOL, this could be why I could buy mine 6 weeks ago from the factory refurbished and already equipped with BIOS ver 1.03.

Equium A210 - after BIOS update problems signing into MSN Live Messenger

Hi
I have just installed the latest Bios update for my Equium A210, as this was the first time \i have ever attempted this \i watched carefully and all appeared to go correctly but, when the notebook restarted, it beeped and showed a checksum error, I chose the option to restart with 'Default Settings'
Since doing this I have had problems signing into MSN Live Messenger and wondered if this could be something to do with the Bios update, also is it possible to 'go back' to the old Bios somehow?
Thanks
Widdy

Hi there,
your issue is actually not an machine related problem. The "Checksum Error" is normal after every BIOS update since the checksum of the BIOS which consists the the BIOS settings and the BIOS version is not correct due an altered BIOS version.
So, next time you update your BIOS you will get a "BIOS checksum error" again. Dont worry, its nothing serious.
Regarding your Messenger:
1. Uninstall the messenger
2. Download the latest version from the MSN site
3. Install the new one
4. Have fun
GReets ;)

K8T NEO BIOS Update Problems

Hello, I have a K8T NEo MS-6702 Ver 1.0 Mb and want to flah it. I have downloaded the BIOS Update ver 1.8. When reading how to flash it it says in large letters "DON'T FLASH FROM A FLOPPY DISK!!!!".

Can I run it from a CD? How do I flash my BIOS with a NTFS file system?
Thanks in advance

You are welcome! ...Eh, the other utilities I would not install unless they are absolutely crucial. After a successful BIOS update it is recommended you clear CMOS. Power off and unplug power cable when clearing, as there can be n o el. left for a successful clearing.

K2N2 Delta 2 Platinum Bios update Problem

Hello All,
I just got myself in trouble again
My setup is a two sata disc raid system, which was working perfectly but with a black screen reboot every now and then, so I though a bios update may solve the problem.
So I update the bios using live update3 but I think it's gone wrong.
After updating the raid option didnot show at all and I got a ( A disc read error occurred) so I tried clearing cmos and re boot.
When I rebooted the (cmos checksum error - defaults loaded - Press F1 to continue, DEL to enter SETUP), on pressing F1 the (A disc read error occurred)
came up, so I used the rescue disc to reinstall previous bios but same result.
In bios setup I set 1st boot to hard disc, but with the platinum there is also a Priorty boot selection which you press enter to see the settings, which are -
1. Ch2 M. Maxtor 6Y120M0
2. Ch3 M. Maxtor 6Y120M0
3. Bootable Add-in Cards
I set the 1st boot device to Hard Disc as it does not show scsi, it does show Lan, USB devices and the normal cd rom and floppy.
The big problem is I can't see the raid arrey on post so I can get in to see if it's working OK.
I would be most grateful for any help
Very Best Regards
