Can't install MSI Live Update for new bios

Hi all,
sad to say, I too have the problem of MSI Live not installing.
Just bought a GTX 970 Gaming 4G and the Live update says "this platform is not supported". I tried the version from the disc and the version offered by the MSI support site. Both led to the same experience.
Would be great if you could help me out checking my bios and providing me with the newest one if needed.
(Instructions would be great though too )
S/N: 602-v316-050B1501006790

Thank you for the information flobelix!
Whats bothering me now is the Live update.
Can I ignore that or should i wait for a new version?
Additional info:
Netframework 4.5.2 is installed.
Board: ASRock ZH77 Pro3, latest bios installed.

    Kind regards

    Hi NovJoe
    It is done automatic when using an old version of Live Update.
    However, Last night I figured it out 
    I disabled my security programs and opened Live Update with IE instead of Firefox 
    I knew it but I was very tired at the time.
    Thanx
    Kind regards Ulrik

    Can't install SMC Firmware Update for my MacBook Pro 15" early 2011

    Check your Network control panel and turn off Auto-Proxy setting.
    This is one of the top #4 "how can they do this' pet-peeve errors.
    The other is the often slow 8 hrs to download 600MB even on 10Mb+ cable.
    Another, 'the drive cannot be partitioned because there isn't enough contiguous unfragemented free space; some files are locked and cannot be moved."
    If auto proxy isn't it, router/modem and DNS settings.

    hi there
    I'm facing the exact same dilemma ...
    so, what's the solution?
    what sould I do ?
    should I switch like Arni ? to a regular version ?
    what annoys me is that my version is activated, not using a trial version ...
    so, why can't I get the updates for the middle eastern version?????
    would I face issues with the regular version when it comes to Arabic for example being used in the graphics and all?
    I'm not really concerned with menus in arabic, all I care for is the fonts being used properly without the fuzzy twisted letters ...
    any help plz?

  • Can't Use MSI Live Update?

    Hi All,
    I have the MSI GTX 970 Gaming Golden edition and I've been wanting to check for a BIOS update, however, the Live Update application says "this platform is not supported." I'm using Windows 8.1 64 Bit Pro and I have .NET Framework 4.5.2 installed, which replaces 4.0 for Windows 8 (I also ran a repair install).
    Videocard Serial #: 602-V316-15SB1411029XXX
    I have attached two screenshots: One of the error message I receive and one of the GPU-Z readout for my card.
    Anything I can do to get the update application working?
    Thanks for your time.

    All the links I can find point here:
    http://download.msi.com/uti_exe/LiveUpdate.zip
    The archive contains a folder named "6.0.016", directory listing:
    Live Update 6.exe
    ReleaseNote.txt
    The top entry in ReleaseNote.txt states:
    =============================================================================================================================
       Version: 6.0.016   Build Date: 2015.04.21
            Description:
          1. Added installer check function, no longer support AIO/NB platform.
          2. Modify total installer update MB BIOS process.
    ========================================================================================================================
    Here are the steps I am using to install the utility:
    1. Unzip the archive
    2. Double-click "Live Update 6.exe"
    3. At the "Select Setup Language" screen, keep English (default) and press "OK"
    4. Error is shown:
    "This application does not support this platform."
    5. Click "OK" which quits the installer
    I'm running Windows 8.1 with all updates applied from MS Update.
    Also .net 4 is already installed.
    I tried a lot of different compatibility setups, and nothing works.
    Any ideas?

    It's exactly the same for me.

  • MOVED: MSI LIVE UPDATE Kill my BIOS

    This topic has been moved to BIOS.
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=106801.0

    ...the VGA BIOS update is for MSI branded cards only...
    ...my only guess would be to go to Sapphire and see if they have a BIOS flash for your card...

  • Problems with Cool N Quiet and MSI Live Update

    Hi
    I have had my K8T NEO FISR2 motherboard for a year and  generally I have been very happy with it. However, I have just installed Full Spectrum Warrior (about 3 weeks ago ) and Nortons Internet Suite 2005 and both installations resulted in the same error message when I boot up.
    The error message is that MSI Live Update isn't started up, and also that Cool N quite is not supported on my motherboard which is obviously rubbish.
    I have done a complete re-install of the Live Update and Cool N quite and that fixes it, and then it seems to come back a day later.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    Thankyou for your help

    I stopped using the MSI software completely.  Also got lots of troubles with it.  MSi Live Update for example stops the audio drivers working while checking their revision and so on, so my advice is to use it only if needed once in a while and not loading it together with Windows.

    You need to upgrade OS X.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks/Yosemite- System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • MSI KT8 Neo2 F board, upgraded cpu and used MSIs Live Update, now unstable BSODs

    I've had this mobo for almost 2 yrs now with an AMD 3500+ cpu and recently upgraded that to the FX-55. To do that, it required using MSIs Live Update and needed newer chipset drivers. It has the latest bios according to Live Update.
      It took a few attempts but finally booted w/o BSODs and has been running for over 1 week BUT is still not right. It's sometimes unstable and will crash (BSOD) just by starting up a browser. I had the bios settings at "optimized" and have tryed a few other changes but so far, I'm not gaining. Last night I couldn't keep it running more than a few minutes w/o it crashing.
      I have the MSI manual for my board and plan to spend some more time playing with it tonight but might anyone here have any ideas? It's not running hot (reads 50C) and was stable before with the 3500+. I've tryed "Fail Safe" bios settings too but nothing's better that way either.
       I'm hoping that someone here has a few ideas?
    Perhaps related?
      After initially running this with the new cpu, I'd see the "searching for MAC address" message and it'd hang there on boot. Someone told me that was because it was trying to do a network boot, selected in the boot sequence SO I've unselected that and that's when things got worse (oddly as it shouldn't IMO). One can select the 3+ boot devices (floppy, USB, CD-DVD rom, HDD) and it use to see the HDDs (2) before but now I'm not (only floppy and CD-DVD rom) and if I unselect the ethernet option (boot other devices), it fails to boot at all and says "insert floppy" as if I was installing Win98 way back when (running XP Pro btw). Something's definately not right with my bios selections.

    Let's go back to basics here for a bit. Start by posting your complete specs in your signature like we do. Make sure that your PSU values are also in there.
    Let's also look at some tests to help determine where the issue is. I would recommend Memtest86+, OCCT, Prime95, and 3DMarks as a great first series. Also get CPUz and lets see what it shows for CPU and Memory.
    If we can get an idea where things begin to fall apart then maybe we can determine if this is driver, hardware or some other issue without having to make the flash happen first. The reason why I am avoiding the flash at this point is that if things are mostly working maybe there is some other cause than Bios. We know that some FX's work with 3.x and some that don't. So I would like to try a bit of checking before we dive into a flash that could cause more issues than it solves if we get this wrong. As things are mostly working now we can assume at least for the moment that maybe the flash is not needed. If we don't see anything during testing that sheds some light then maybe we go ahead with the flash.
    That is if your willing to take some time to try and sort this out and maybe learn some stuff in the process. It is of course your call and we will respect whichever decission you make here.

  • MSI Live update failed

    I a trying to upgrade my firmware for my motherboard.
    Motherboard: K9VGM-V
    Windows XP
    Internet Explorer 7
    When I use the MSI Live update, it tells me that it is going to install BIOS upgrade from version 1.0 to 1.80.
    However, once I get passed the installation setup, it goes to run the flash upgrade program but I get the error message: "Error Executing the Specified Program: MSISETUP.exe"
    When I go to have a look in the installation directory there are a few files in there, but not a MSISETUP.exe.
    Here are the files that are in there:
    AWDFLH
    Ms-7253.pfw
    W7253VMS.180
    Help, this is MOST annoying as it seems the only way to flash my BIOS.

    Can I just say a big thank you to all of you. 24 hours since I posted the new thread and we have 9 responses and one happy customer.
    I should let you all know that I now have version 1.92 for my BIOS, and it solved my problem... my BIOS, and therefore my Windows and Linux installs all now recognize the processor I am using.
    I got ftp access to the BIOS files through MSI support email, and using the alternative guide BOSSKILLER provided, I was able to successfully use my space USB pen to flash my BIOS.
    Thanks again all,
    especially BOSSKILLER + whoever produced that document! :

  • How to update VGA bios in MSI live update.

    Hi,
    I downloaded MSI live update and i saw that there is a new bios for my card and i downloaded it.
    when i go to the folder with the DL-FILE i see that different things are downloaded included nvflash and the rom itself.
    Now is my question, can i install the new bios though the MSIsetup in that folder or do i have to do it a different way? I just want to be sure because i don't want to do anything wrong and probably brick my card.
    Thnx in advance.

    I just flashed the new vbios via MSI live update yesterday, but I have GTX 970, not sure if the procedure is the same or not between different cards.
    I just pressed the "download and install" arrow on the right side of vbios size, and live update only allowing me to choose vbios update at one time. After the download finished, it auto executed cmd under windows, and remind me to remove graphics card driver and continue (I did uninstall when I flashing my first card, but for the next one I just closed the nvidia experience), after press twice "Y" in the cmd, the flash began and then system just auto restarted. When my pc rebooted to windows again, I checked the vbios version, it appears the new one.
    maybe i should film a video if i got chance 

  • MSI Live Update will no longer work after recent update

    Recently, MSI Live Update upgraded itself and now errors when a scan is attempted.  I can start the application, and the scan appears to occur but does not complete.  The error is pretty generic: 
    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
    Runtime Error!
    Program C:\Program Files (x86)\MSI\Live Update 6\Live Update.exe
    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way.  Please contact the application's support team for more information.
    First thing I did was uninstall the tool, delete the directory, reboot and download and install Live Update 6.x from the MSI  site.  No change.  I figured there was possibly a problem with (one of the) C++ Runtime libraries and checked the system requirements on the MSI website, but all it says its needs is the .NET runtime library.  I uninstalled it, rebooted, and reinstalled it but still received the same error.  Going with the error, I removed all of the C++ libraries (8, 10, and 12 I think), rebooted, and reinstalled them the checked MS for updates.   Sadly, this also didn't resolve it.
    Error in the application log didn't help:

    Yep, the package names were blank.
    Searching the forum didn't yield much.  Suggestions?

    Thanks for the suggestions - still in the same boat.

    what OS you are running? Windows 8.1 x64
    what MSI hardware you have?
    Board: Z87-G43 GAMING
    Bios: American Megatrends v1.9 (7/21/2014)
    Intel Core i5-4670 @ 3.40GHz (not overclocked)
    OS: Windows 8.1 Pro x64
    @jb0nez
    I fixed it though--went to Control Panel, Uninstall a Program, found Microsoft .net 4.5.1, hit Change/Uninstall, then clicked Repair. Rebooted after and it was fine.
    Windows 8.x has .NET 4.x preinstalled as a part of the OS.
    I used DISM.exe which identified a component store corruption (and repaired it).  Live Update still errors.
    Attempts to install from a .NET runtime returns an error of "A higher version is already installed".
    Version of .NET installed: 4.5.51641
    I did disable, reboot, and re-enable .NET as a feature but doing so does not revert it back to stock .NET.
    I also checked Windows Update after re-enabling it and there were no updates - so its not flushing the binaries if its disabled.
    At least I have a direction to start troubleshooting (.NET) - thanks for the tip!
    @jb0nez
    are you also use the same version? Live Update 6.0.012
    @TZBC
    Restore points are out - I let this slide too long.  If I go that route, I'll be fixing one app to break 10 others.
    If I'm going to reinstall the OS, I'll wait until Windows 10 (I'll do a complete wipe at that time).  Live Update  is a 'nice to have', but its not worth my  time to wipe the OS and rebuild the system.

  • Possible issue with MSI Live Update 5

    Hi guys, purchased a brand new MSI R9 280X Gaming 3G GPU from Scan.co.uk just before Christmas.
    Whilst playing around with GPUz i happened to notice that my card appears to have had at least one new BIOS for it (possibly two) since release. I downloaded MSI Live Update 5 from your site and ran the tool however it reports my GPU BIOS Version as unknown and doesn't find any BIOS updates for my card.
    Just wondering why this would be and if i can get a link to the latest BIOS and instructions on how to manually flash.
    My system specs are as follows
    AMD FX8350 @ 4.8Ghz 1.55v / Corsair H100 Cooler
    ASUS Sabertooth R990FX R2.0
    16GB Corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz CL9 @ 1866Mhz CL9,9,9,24-2T
    MSI R9 280X Gaming 3G
    2 x Sandisk Ultra 256GB SSDs in RAID 0
    Fractal Design Define XL R2
    If you need any further info please let me know. Thanks

    First off this is a Users-to-Users Forum not MSI tech support if you wanted to address them. Don't use LU5 as it is quite buggy. You can't see if there are new vbios versions available as you can't compare gpu-z numbers or such. Different batches of the same model can use different vbios versions which have different (higher or lower) version numbers. A higher version number might be a different not newer vbios. To check your S/N and a copy of your current vbios is required.

  • MSI Live Update is not working

    When i use MSI Live Update to check for BIOS or other things, it gives me a page not found thing.  I can use internet though.  How can i solve it?

    Hi
    Try downloading Live update from the download page of this site, it is the latest version.  You will see it under VGA - Utilities.  It should load and install without problem, save it to a folder for use next time you re install.
