Does MSI provide Bios Updates for 8800GTX?

Do they provide bios updates fpr the 8800GTX?

It's the same problem as 7 month ago.  I'm not sure if i postet the problem here, so I describe it once more.
When I'm running bios 7.20 on my mainboard everything is fine (I'm running bios 7.20 for 7 month no with no problem, so the PSU (BeQuiet 550W) can't be the problem)). If I change the bios to a higher or a lower version my Windows XP looks like this:
http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/5262/041000011rv2.jpg
It doesn't matter if I reinstall VGA driver or use the windows standart one, it always looks like this.
Vista gives me a bluescreen bevor the Desktop shoud appear.
I knew to other guys who have the same Mainboard and also have a 8800GTX (ok, twice times other brand but the cards themselves should be equal). The only differnce is that they have a higher VGA-bios version, for example eVGA has Provides an VGA Bios update for the 8800GTX but they don't say what esspecially is fixed.
So far everything is fine, using bios 7.20 is ok for me, BUT I now want to buy an Intel Q6600 CPU and for that I need to upgrade at least to 7.50.
So Maybe MSI has a newer bios for their 8800GTX which solves the problem. I'm sure that it is nothing else. Windows has always been fresh installed, VGA driver is always the newest one (Did I say that the Windows VGA driver doesn't work to on XP?) and with bios 7.20 I have no problems, I can play, work, everything so I don't think it's a hardware fault.
The only differnce between my Mainboard + Graka and the Mainboard + Graka from my friends is the VGA-Bios version. So I thought this must be it.
I poorly can't try another 8800GTX at my mainboard because they won't give me her cards.

  • Where is msi vga bios update for GF4 Ti cards?

    It seems like many other card vendors are updating the bios on their GF4 cards for better performance. My friend got a nice performance boost on his winfast from a bios update. Everytime I search on MSI Live Update (I have to update Live Update...whats up with so many versions of a simple download utility) it says there are no vga bios updates for my GF4/4400. I read on these forums that .25 (I think) was a disaster and trashed everybodys cards. Is there news on an improved update?

    Msi are going to be last, and then if they release new bios for G4Ti cards.
    Don´t you now they suck, I would sell my card right now if I could.  
    I'm using Asus DVCR for TV because Wincoder with my version did not support full screen window.
    I got fantastic stupid tips from MSI support, because my MSI-CLOCK and 3D!Turbo don't work.  And it still not work with XP.
    If I had 1$ for hour that i had spent to this card trying to let work right.  I could get better card from other vendor.  I will never get anything with MSI stamp.  I'ts better to spent more money and save time for better thinks.

    Is there a tutorial on how to flash the new BIOS?
    Decompress the provided .rar archive with Winrar: http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Then flash the desired file included with Nvflash for dos: http://www.guru3d.com/files_details/nvflash_download.html
    To do so rename the included file to .rom and create a dos bootstick (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=165175.0)
    Put nvflash and the vbios file on it and boot from the stick. Then type nvflash -4 -5 -6 gop.rom (if renamed vbios that way) and hit enter. Confirm the questions and let the tool flash.

    Also, what is the difference between normal and ln2, or witch one is safe to use?
    normal is the pre-overclocked default vbios. LN2 (which can be chosen via the selector switch on top of your card) is not factory overclocked but allows more extreme manual oc without the limits of normal vbios (more voltage and power draw allowed). This is especially needed for extreme oc like if using Liquid nitrogen (LN2) cooling for oc records.

  • BIOS Update for the MSI GTX670 Power Edition Card

    There is a Bios update for the MSI GTX670 PE video card but it's for a hybrid card. What is meant by a hybrid card and how do I know if this applies to my video card? Any help would be appreciated in advance. Thank you. I do know that I can't for some reason or another install the Msi Update program for this card. It keeps saying that you have to be the administrator and Iam the administrator on my system. I do not understand.

    You can use windows version of it to flash it:
    >>Download NVFLASH for windows<<
    syntax from cmd:
    nvflash -4 -5 -6 myrom.rom [ENTER]
    where myrom.rom will be your vbios file

  • Where can I find a BIOS update for Satellite A100-200 (PSAA8E)

    Hello,
    Where can I find a BIOS update for this model?
    The BIOS on the download page is November last year, is there anything newer or does anyone know of an update that is compatible?
    Thanks,
    Ian

    Yep, newest updates and drivers for your notebook you will find on the Toshiba download pages, as Jimi already mentioned.
    Just as a little hint from my side is, that if there is nothing wrong with your notebook, just leave it as it is.
    As there is the saying, never touch a running system.
    So keep that in mind. ;)

  • Bug in latest 2 bios updates for FM2-A55M-E33

    Hey guys,
    Today I tried to update my bios of my FM2-A55M-E33 to the latest version(7721vA4.zip). Once everything completed succesfully, the bios wouldn't boot anymore.
    I plugged out my 3TB hdd and it worked fine. I installed an earlier version of the bios(7721vA0.zip) and this did work with my 3TB hdd.
    So in short:
    The latest bios updates for FM2-A55M-E33 will freeze(black screen) at bios start when a 2TB+ hdd drive is plugged in.
    Namely:
    FM2-A55M-E33 (MS-7) V10.3 BIOS Release
    FM2-A55M-E33 (MS-7) V10.4 BIOS Release
    I hope you can fix this asap, especially since these are the latest updates.
    Regards,
    Henkie de Grote

  • Does java provide any support for MD5

    I want to develop a program which in vc++ should produce a message digest using MD5 for a file and i want to check this file and hashcode generated for its equality . Does Java provide MD5 algo for it.
    ie what i have to do
    file + MD5 algo (Implemented in vc++) = Message Digest 1
    Will Message Digest 1 == Message Digest Generated by Java MD5 algo + file
    Thanks

    Here's a simple example of creating an MD5 in java:
        public byte[] createMD5( final InputStream data )
            throws NoSuchAlgorithmException, IOException
            MessageDigest md5 = MessageDigest.getInstance( "MD5" );
            final byte buf[] = new byte[ 8192 ];
            int bytes = 0;
            while ( ( bytes = data.read( buf ) ) != -1 )
                md5.update( buf, 0, bytes );
            return md5.digest();
        }

  • Need help finding a BIOS flash tool and BIOS updates for HP Compaq nc8230 running Windows 7

    I put together this laptop. It didnt come with a hardrive, and basically I installed everything from the ground up.
    It is an HP Compaq nc8230, IDE Hard drive, Windows 7 32 bit. The BIOS on it is the original one. I've searched far and wide, but to no avail, it seems there's zero support for this model anymore.
          Basically it was never intended to go beyond Vista, back in 2004 when this model was introduced.
       The reason I am searching for some kind of BIOS update, whether it is BIOS or SMBios is to get the ACPI driver to recognize the primary laptop battery. This is crucial: it only sees both as the travel battery. Other than that, all else is fine.

    Hi:
    Here is the latest BIOS update for your notebook.
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=32...
    You cannot use the windows based flash because you installed windows 7, so I provided the link to the DOS based flash.
    You need to use a USB floppy drive for this update.
    Oh, and the card reader won't work unless you install this updated driver which is not on your PC's support and driver page.

  • BIOS update for P6000

    Is there a BIOS updated for the Pavilion 6000 series ?
    And if so  how do I tell which model I have? (6071 through 6085 and does it matter...)
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hello ShawnyD,
    There is no BIOS update for the Pavilion P6000 series from what I can tell. You can always find driver updates that are available directly from HP by visiting this link.
    http://goo.gl/7HKZw
    With that being said, there doesn't appear to be much of a difference this time for which model you have as they all have the same drivers.
    Sometimes it may matter as there is always some subtle differences between the versions (there has to be a reason to make a new version doesn't there!).
    On your case you should have a label and that label should include information such as your model number. On some machines it's on the side others it's on the back or even some place it on the top.
    See this link for help in finding the label and then identifying the model number.
