Brand new nf980-g65 no post after bios update

I just built a system using an NF980-G65 with a Phenom II x4 and after updating the bios it has no post.
I am not sure how to proceed. I tried removing all accessories and removing the battery but nothing helped.

What bios did you flash and did flash end successfully or was it interrupted.

NF980-G65 not responding after BIOS Flash

Before we start I do admit this is my first computer build and I have a feeling that I will have to RMA this board because of the M-Flash disaster.
Mobo: NF980-G65
CPU: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) F3-12800CL7D-4GBRM
Power Supply: CORSAIR Professional Series AX1200
HD: Crucial RealSSD C300 CTFDDAC128MAG-1G1 2.5" 128GB
Video: Onboard for the time being
Basically after fidgeting with the bios for 2-3 hours I found that I was running version 1.1 so I made an attempt to update my bios to 1.4 because in 1.3 they added support for 6 core processors. Well after I forced flash it wont display video at all or power any USB devices. I believe the error message before I flashed it was something like ROM ID miss match? Any suggestions?

I do just have one quick question. I was planning on using the >>MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<< to update my BIOS on the new board that I am receiving after the RMA. However I noticed that in the Preconditions & System Requirements it said that Quote
The main precondition for using the tool is a working & healthy Windows installation on the system that needs the BIOS flash.
Is there anyway to update the BIOS on the board with no windows install on that system? The problem is that I cant install windows because the board won't recognize my CPU. Any recommendation would be great... Thanks again for your help!

Satellite A100-TA7 hangs at POST after BIOS update

Being kind of tech swavy, i know my chances are very low in fixing this but here goes.
I decided to update the BIOS on my Toshiba Satellite A100-TA7(PSAA8C-TA702C) laptop to the latest version available (6.00).
I did this because I've heard of people have better luck in making their FN keys work in linux with the newer BIOS.
The installation finished normally(went through all the steps, wrote all 21 blocks) without any errors but after rebooting I noticed that it now hangs at the Toshiba logo screen.
The blue progress bar moves twice but then gets stuck about 1/3 of the way through.
In order to see how bad the damage was, I pressed esc at the beginning of POST and saw that it gives me the right BIOS Version (6.00).
It also tells me that "No TPM or TPM has problem", and "2039M System RAM Passed."
It then displays the message "Press <F2> to enter SETUP" (which makes the message disappear, but otherwise does nothing.
If i press f2 during the Toshiba logo screen, it replaces the message at the bottom with "Please wait" and nothing happens even after waiting an hour.
(Which makes sense because before the whole blue bar would load before going into the CMOS settings). The thing is that the BIOS doesn't really "freeze", It just gets stuck at one specific place (I know this because i can press F2 even after waiting an hour and the laptop does respond to it by displaying "Please Wait".
Anyone have any more things i could try? Thank you
PS. I tried clearing the CMOS too. (By holding the power button for like 60 seconds without any power source <--- I'm not sure if this is how you do it on this laptop so any info would be nice). And I'm also 100% sure i chose the right BIOS update and followed every single instruction.

Hello Greg
I am very happy to hear you have solved this BIOS issue but I must react because of some your statements here. I do not have timet to do some research but let us write about some facts. I use Toshiba notebooks over 10 years now and I think I can say that I am pretty experienced with all this stuff.
Toshiba sold hundred thousand laptops and I can really not imagine that this can be some common problem because, I presume, all offered stuff on download page is tested. If 0.5% cases are the same it does not mean there is general problem. What you think how many people use the same BIOS update as you? I guess thousands of them.
About Linux support I can say the same as Eldorado. Sorry but I am afraid you do not understand what the support is. Just some facts:
Toshiba does not offer drivers for Linux OS
Toshiba does not offer tools and utilities for Linux
Toshiba does not offer BIOS for Linux
Toshiba does not test anything relevant for Linux functionality (very important for support)
With short words: there is nothing for Linux. If you can install Linux successfully and use it without problems you are very lucky guy and be happy, but there is definitely no support.
If you exchange experiences with other people it is really good and you should do this in the future but if you hear something and later something goes wrong it is your problem.
At the end I can say that this is user-to-user forum and you should be happy if someone here want to discuss about your problem and try to help. If you are not satisfied with comments or opinions it is your problem and if you want professional opinion you know very well where you can get it.
Have a nice day.

K9A Platinum no longer posting after bios update

I recently upgraded my computer to the specs below, and vista ultimate wouldn't start up (In safe mode it would freeze on checkdisk). I tried some of the solutions I found here (unplugging IDEs, etc) to no avail, and finally I decided to flash the BIOS and upgrade it to the most recent version (1.5). It worked once after restart (sor of, it froze on checkdisk again) but on subsiquent boots it no longer posts! Help please, I need my desktop!

Okay, i'm able to get into vista with four gigs, six gigs causes it to reset at crcdisk.sys, and it seems to boot with 8. It seems that some setting got tripped in the BIOS update, Looks like this was some spirit of spontaneity prevalent in so many computers. Thanks for the help!
you are welcome, next time please do not touch the BIOS when everythink is working fine. and don't update BIOS only because its a new one.. read here: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=103441.0
also 1.5 are known as problematic one for most of K9A owners...
"Okay, i'm able to get into vista with four gigs, six gigs causes it to reset at crcdisk.sys, and it seems to boot with 8."
that is normal, issues can be expected when using 3 memory sticks. recommended are 2 memory sticks, other working combination 1 or 4 memory sticks.(but 3 memory sticks are not recommended.)
also its a good idea to check memory for errors with Memtest86, to ensure that they are working correctly without errors.

G530-4446-24U takes FOREVER to POST after BIOS update

Hey,
I just installed Win7 Pro 64-bit a couple of hours ago and lost the ability to adjust my screen brightness. After installing chipset and power management drivers I still had no luck. So I updated the BIOS with this file.
Now it all works well once I'm booted into Win7, but it takes a very long time to POST when I push the power button. I haven't timed it, but it seems to be over 60 seconds before I have anything displayed on my screen. When it does start POST, it works fine at the expected speed. It also restarts when attempting to wake from sleep, and the same problem as mentioned above applies as it must POST again.
Is there a more appropriate BIOS update for my machine, or is this a terrible bug that must be worked out?
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I couldnt flash either from Windows 7 pro x64. I ended up using BartsPE to run the flashing program. I dont have the speed issue, it boots up with the same speed it always did. you should make sure you used the right BIOS. i had the problem once, but it seems to be working now. I still havent gotten the Brightness to work though.
as for the "Cannot load driver C:\Drivers\BIOS\6get18ww\PHLASHNT.SYS. Please check your accounts, if you have no administrator privilige, please login again! This driver has been blocked from loadingError code: 1275" message, this is because it uses a 32 bit driver. You cant use these drivers under 64 bit. my solution worked really well. if you want to use and need help configuring the PE, i can help.

Brand new macbook pro retina issues after yosmite update

My Macbook pro retina was working fine until I had Mavericks, but after updating to Yosemite the following problems has started.
Touch pad stops responding now and then
Fails to open launchpad sometimes
Boot camp wizard is missing
Scrolling doesn't work quite often in Safari
Fan starts running when cpu is cool without load, but fails to run when hot while playing games
Battery performance is dropped.
Computer has become comparatively sluggish.
Doesn't display 'about this mac'.

I did call them and it seems there is no solution except sending it back to them and getting a new one.
This is by far the most strange issue I have seen. Seems more like a hardware issue than software.
Thanks for you suggestion though. I will post an update ones this case gets resolved.

MSI Z87-G41 - No POST After BIOS Update

I've tried updating the bios through the M-Flash method since my PC wouldn't restart. I heard that updating the BIOS and Intel ME through M-Flash would fix the problem with restarts, so I updated through this method. I chose the right BIOS, and the update was successful. I waited until it restarted(asked me to restart it myself or to wait until it restarted). Now it just shows a black screen. I've tried clearing the CMOS by removing the battery and jumping the JBAT1 pins. I've tried removing my GPU and leaving one stick of RAM in and nothing, still the black screen. I just got my PSU RMA'd(doesn't have anything to do with the restart problem, new PSU different brand) and I really don't want to have to do an RMA for this and wait 2-5 weeks just to use a computer. I've updated this board successfully in the past without issue(through M-Flash), and now I'm dealing with this. Just as an added note, everything powers on perfectly.

Did you see any debug code when you start the system?
No, just a black screen. Tried both my GPU and motherboard video outputs.

Re: Satellite A135-S7403 does not pass POST after BIOS update

Hello
I have A135-S7403, i know that it's old but i worked good until i install a new Bios version (1.90 for Satellite A130 (PSAD0U/PSAD3U) from the official Toshiba site(here: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=1854878& rpn=PSAD0U&modelFilter=&selCategory=3&selFamily=10 73768663).
Everything installed without any problems but when i restart laptop it doesn't start.
It freezes on screen with red inscription "In touch with tomorrow TOSHIBA" and i can do nothing.
What should i do? And why this official update broke down my computer?

Sounds like I'm having exactly that problem. Today I update the Bios of A135-S4477 with the official update download from toshiba support. Things works fine and the screen says smt like "sucessful... your pc will shutdown in 10 seconds" then I saw a small popup says smt like "if the keyboard or mouse doesn't work.... bla bla bla" I doesn't finish my reading when the whole system goes off but I think everything is ok at that time.
When I try booting up the system. It's freezed at the "in touch with toshiba". F2 or F12 cannot function. I had no choice but brought that to the local service, unfortunately they cannot fix it and they have to send it to another center in another city. Actually I don't know what happen to my laptop since I did follow the instruction of the official download. What are the cases that can happen? what is the worst case and what about the best case? how much will I be charged?
Thanks in advance for any help.

URGENT HELP: PC can't post after Bios Update on MSI NX6600GT-VTD128

The LiveBIOS utility on my PC showed that there was an updated BIOS of my MSI NX6600GT-VTD128 that I was using and I proceeded to update using the facility.
Everything seem fine until the system was rebooted, now the system refuse to post. All I see when I power on the system is a moment of power (e.g. I can see the lights on my keyboard and card reader), before they also disappear.
My system is a P4 2.4 Northwood running on a MSI 875P. I had already cleared the CMOS on my motherboard but it didn't help. I would appreciate greatly for any advice.

Common mistake.
Unfortunately, the cure is likely to be painful.
Did you disable your Antivirus and Firwall before doing such a thing?
Video cards aren't like motherboards, and just updating for the simple fact that it's available is wrong regarding BIOS's for anything.
You should have a specific reason to do so.
Now, did you backup your old BIOS?
You may need to contact MSI directly to get the original BIOS and use a PCI video card so you can boot and see what you are doing to reflash your AGP card.
How to contact MSI.
Thanks for the advice. And you are right, the cure is painful, particularly, when I didn't back up the old BIOS and neither do I have a PCI graphics card lying around.
I did deactivated my antivirus whilst flashing, and there was no firewall running.

New NF980-G65 with an AMD X6 1090T and the BIOS Update Utility Crashes?

Last week I received my new NF980-G65 board and with it an AMD Phenom II X6 1090T (Thuban 3.2GHz Socket AM3). After installing the board and starting it up for the first time I noticed that it reports BIOS version 1.1 and CPU unknown. Next I downloaded the BIOS update to version 1.3 from msi, made a boot USB stick and powered up again. System will not boot from USB. I tried now over 20 different sticks from 256MB to 64GB and none of them worked!
Went back to my old system and ripped its floppy drive out to install it in the new computer. Had to go to RadioShack since I have not touched a floppy in over 10 years, but they had some on clearance. Made me a boot disk, put the new BIOS and install utility on it, booted the system with the floppy, started the BIOS update utility and watched it crash. When I start it by itself it gives me three screens of options and commands, but as soon as I try to use one of the commands or update the BIOS it keeps crashing.
What do I have to do to get the BIOS on the NF980-G65 updated so it will run with my AMD X6 1090T processor?
Thank you in advance for ANY help...

I am sorry, but I need to work with this thing since I make a living writing code, I do not play with it! This thing and the support I am getting for it are not worth my time or money!
What thing are you talking about? You are experiencing the a certain symptom for which you do not know the cause. For some strange reason and without any in-depth tests you seem to assume that the board must be the problem (ignoring all other components (for example your factory overclocked memory modules).

What support have you tried to get that actually has to do anything with money? Please note that this is not MSI Technical Support but a User-to-User forum, run by users (just like you) that do not get paid for donating their private time to try to help others. Whatever your level of frustration is in regards to the money spent for your components, please do not use it to insult anyone here in this forum.

Photoshop CS6 keeps crashing. I am using a brand new IMAC, I have 16GB RAM recently updated as it was running slow with 8GB and lots of hardrive space. When it crashes, i lose all my presents and it changes my preferences, it also fails to save or produce

Photoshop CS6 keeps crashing. I am using a brand new IMAC, I have 16GB RAM recently updated as it was running slow with 8GB and lots of hardrive space. When it crashes, i lose all my presents and it changes my preferences, it also fails to save or produce a recovered file despite settings asking it to do so every 5 mins now. When i try to report the problem, it says it has found an issue and gives me a link to a solution....but wont let me click on the link.... PLEASE HELP! It's killing my productivity.

If the crash started right after you added RAM, it could be a bad Ram dimm. You can try this - change the amount of RAM in Photoshop to 4G, this should stop Photoshop from using the higher ram. If it doesn't crash, it's probably the ram. Or run a diagnostic app. You don't say when it crashes, what you're doing when it crashes - it there a pattern? Did it ever work on this computer? Did it work on your previous computer? Without a lot of data, it could be related to the new computer... What OS version? Did you recently update it? Have you updated Photoshop to the most recent update?
Do you have any plug-ins loaded? Try restarting Photoshop, and immediately press & hold the shfit key to turn off plug-ins.

After BIOS update Satellite L350-172 doesn't start anymore

Satellite L350-172 Bios-Update from bios-20090203164614 to bios-201002250
I just updatet the BIOS of my notebook from 1.60 to 2,20. Now the Notebook doesn't start any longer.
"It was stopped for reason not to damage the Computer" - blue schreen.
How can I downgrade the bios again? Or - what have I to change in the bios-settings?

Hi schuwe,
Im a little bit confused about your posting. How do you tell your BIOS not to restart?
Anyway, after BIOS update you should load the default settings in BIOS.
Did you choose the right BIOS especially for your model?

After BIOS update DVD driver do not read DVDs anymore - Sat A80

Hi,
I have a Satellite A80-131 and after bios update (last version 2.5) by windows procedure update, my DVD drive do not read DVD medias anymore. It is possible to read CD medias, but not DVD one.
Can I reinstall the old bios? Can I reinstall the firmware?
Thanks
Ronai Lisboa

Hi Ronai
Like Jimi has said in the posting above. It's very unusual that after BIOS updating the DVD drive hasn't read the DVDs.
Furthermore it's not advisable to use any 3rd party applications to DOWNGRADE the BIOS. Usually only the ASP can downgrade the BIOS. Such procedures are very serious and the wrong procedure can damage the motherboard.
However, it's nice that you have solved the problem and that the drive works properly.
Thanks for the feedback.
