Cannot update graphics card BIOS, MSI Live upate 6 will not work.

Live update 6 does not support "MSI Radeon R9 280x Gaming 6G" graphics card.
Live update 6 does not run.
Even tried mass loading Live update 6 to the point it had 800+ "Live Update.exe 32*" processors running in task manager and they soon disappeared 20 seconds later.
No UI.
No Error message.
If the program is not running it is clear it does not support any of the hardware in my system including "MSI Radeon R9 280x Gaming 6G".
As a result I cannot update to latest BIOS for my graphics card.
Operating system: Windows 7 64bit (last update 05/09/2014 6 days ago)
CPU: AMD A8-6600k APU @ 4.60GHz
RAM: 8GB Dual channel Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer DDR3 1866MHz CL9
Motherboard: Asrock FM2A88M Extreme4+
GPU: MSI Radeon R9 280x Gaming 6G
GPU details:
Am I required to have an MSI motherboard to be eligible for a graphics card BIOS update?
The reason why I seek this is because the entire line of R9 200 series graphics cards are plagued with screen flickering due to ULPS. BIOS updates for other vendors of the card; "Gigabyte", "Asus" etc have been reported to fix the monitor flicking ULPS causes however since I have an MSI GFX card I cannot use Gigabyte and Asus BIOS updates.
I no longer have the flickering issue due disabling ULPS and overclocking the graphics card however it's causing the card to operate at a constant 48 degrees and chew power.
With the overclock values and stress testing it with Unigine Heaven Benchmark 4.0 (extreme preset) the card reaches a max of 74 degrees over the course of stress testing for 4 hours.
But I would like to be able to have my card at factory clock settings with ULPS without the flickering and I'm wanting to see if the staff at MSI are fully aware of the bug in their product line and if the latest BIOS version for the graphics card would fix the issue.

No but live update is flakey at best and i wouldn't trust it.... (seen far to many problems with it)
if you want a Updated VBIOS if one is available please supply these 2 things and then one of the other mods will be able to get you what is needed!
1: Serial number of your card (leave off the last 3 digits and then there is no unique information about your card as the rest is all just manufacture data to all the cards from that batch)
2: click the little icon to the side of your BIOS version number and save a copy of the VBIOS to a file and uplaod it to somewhere and give us a link to the file... (use somewhere like Dropbox)
once we have those 2 pieces of information someone here will be able to get one if Available for your card

  • Update Graphics Card BIOS

    I have N580GTX-M2D15D5/OC. I want to Update the Graphics Card BIOS ,I visited the MSI website and found this BIOS file NV801MS.KG4, Tell me how to update the vga card bios with this file because there is no update utility or rom file with this download?

    Quote
    Today I turned on the computer and noticed colored lines appeared during booting windows and then error showed and system restarted
    That is no vbios issue but most likely a hardware defect. If you already tried a different bios you have the verfication it is no bios issue. A vbios doesn't just die all of a sudden. It causes issues from the start or is working.
    Try the card in another machine and if problem presists rma it if still covered by warranty.

  • HT204291 After updating software on my Apple TV home sharing will not work. Both Apple TV and iMac have home sharing on but when Computer is selected on Apple TV I just get a message saying "turn home sharing on".  But it is.  How can I solve this problem

    I have just updated the software on my Apple TV since then home sharing will not work though I had not used it since installing iOS6 on my iPad 3.  Home sharing is shown to be on on the Apple TV and on on my iMac.  The Apple TV is connected to the router with an ethernet cable and all functions work correctly apart from my computer.
    I have done the following. 
    Switched off the Apple TV and rebooted, did the same with iMac
    Turned off home sharing then turned it on.
    Checked that home sharing is on on both devices.
    Selected Computer
    Get a message telling me to turn home sharing on - IT IS!
    Tried using airplay mirroring on the iPad but the airplay function is missing from iPad.
    It is so annoying since before iOS6 and updating the Apple TV software everything worked perfectly.  Any help would be very gratefully received.
    Thanks

    Hi Everyone,
    hope this message finds you all in time. The recent Apple TV update 5.1 is terrible. Apple knows it is which is why (thankfully for some relentless user -I have no idea who but I believe it was under threat) they have allowed to sign 5.0.2 again which means you can downgrade your Apple TV 2 and 3 to a 5.0.2 version via iTunes. Who knows how long they will keep the window open but I have downgraded my ATV early this morning. I couldn't post this earlier because I was out all day but I am doing it now.
    Here's how to do it:
    1) Connect your ATV to your computer via a Mini USB (not included with ATV but included with many other electronic devices) - in order for your ATV to appear in iTunes you must FIRST plug the USB cable to your computer and ATV and only THEN plug the power cable.
    2) Download your ipsw restore file from Apple.
    5.0.2 (ATV 2): AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    5.0.2 (ATV 3): AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    3) In iTunes select yout ATV, hold SHIFT and click on Restore
    4) Find and choose the downloaded IPSW file in the Open Dialog Box and hit Next
    5) As long as Apple still signs that version the Restore process will begin and will take a few minutes to complete.
    Enjoy!

  • After updating Firefox and Java, Firefox gets stuck loading,will not work, and I have to use End Now to exit it.

    I started to have problems after I updated Firefox and then I did a Java update, hoping this would help. Firefox will not finish loading, it gets stuck, I cannot go to websites with it, it is stuck. Then when I try to close it down, I get the message that it is not responding and I have to use" End Now". I am having to use Internet Explorer as my browser, which works fine. My computer is a six year old quite feeble PC with a 37GB hard drive with only about 5GB of available space left.

    Yes, you will lose all your data stored on the sync server if you reset the sync (recovery) key.
    If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Preferences+are+not+saved
    Is the password manager working properly?
    You can find the sync password and the sync key in the password manager on the computer where you originally created that sync account (email).
    *Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"
    Look for:

    Hello Hilda Louise
    Start with the article below to get your iPhone to be recognized in iTunes again. Then you will probably need to restore it to get it back up and running.

  • Windows Live Movie Maker will not work

    After downloadng Windows Essentials and the WMM I received this error message
    Windows cannot  access the specified device path or file.

    Hi,
    I agree with
    arnavsharma to run the WMM as administrator to see the results.
    Also, I suggest you use Process monitor to capture the events when you repro this issue.

  • The latest update (9/2/11) for iPod 2nd Gen will not work

    This is getting frustrating, I can't downlaod any apps and its moved like 1% in a hour

    Started update to 8.3, verifying update appears and nothing works. The screen has been this way for over 12 hours. Can't even shut down. Is there a fix?

    You could try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear and it should reboot.

  • Was updating Flash drive says it was successful but will not work on daily games

    was updating flash drive & it said it was successful, but willnot work

    To help troubleshoot we'll need the following system information:
    Operating system
    Browser
    Flash Player version
    When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details.  Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
    Windows
    Mac
    Finally, sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player.  I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform.  If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing.  You can verify the user of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.
    HTML5 video
    Non-HTML5 video
