Flashing your non Delta mobo with a Delta BIOS will transform your mobo into a very cool looking Key Chain.

FLASH BIOS MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR ????????

I am trying to flash the BIOS of my K7N2 Delta-ILSR board. I follwed all the instructions from the MSI Web but I can't get it going. I booted from Win ME & Win98 but could not get into C: drive. So I used Command Prompt from Window to get into the C: drive and follwed the Flash Bios Procedures. I keep getting the message: AwdFlash No Support WinNT/2000/XP OS
I got problem with the temp after I updated the BIOS. I wanted to flash it back to the old Bios. Please help me out
Thank you
My system:
WinXP Pro
MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR
AMD 2500+
1 GB DR3200
Seagate 160 SATA

Bios 5.4 for KT6 Delta causes instability!

Hi all,
I just wanted to warn those using the KT6 Delta to hold off on flashing there bios with the file the MSI German site has released. I awoke this morning to a booted up machine(wierd as I shut it down the night before)I thought no harm no foul, but lo and behold my machine had completely frozen wierd as it hasn't every done that never even had a crashes or BSODs I rebooted it was fine for most of the day until I was doing some surfing, and the machine froze once more. That's the not the end yet I rebooted, and this time it froze during the os load I switched it off kinda annoyed a 3 grand machine with quality parts shouldn't do this.
I turned on my laptop placed bios 5.2 on a floppy hooked up my usb floppy to my desktop, and proceded to flash bios 5.2 which did the trick hasn't faltered yet rock solid. While it's probably not an issue everyone might have I'd wait until the Taiwan site releases the bios update and then flash there must be a reason why we haven't seen the update on any of the other sites.

Much Appreciated for the info on the New bios
sorry that you had to go thought that trouble just to find that out!
I try to wait for new drivers etc, to come this website before I play with expensive hardware,
:evil:I would be pissed to see anything happen to my pc's just cause of some Beta driver?
Oh well, thats life Eh!
Thanks again for the heads up

Weird annoying noise after flashing bios

I recently built a new computer with the following setup:
MSI K2N7 Delta ILSR
Athlon XP 2800+ (with stock hsf)
x2 256mb pc2700 Corsair XMS (running dual channel)
Hitachi Deskstar 120gb harddrive
I flashed the bios yesterday with the MSI Live Update3 utility and the flash went smoothly. No errors or anything. I reboot the comp when told to and then as soon as Windows loads up I hear this high pitched electrical noise. Immediately I shut down windows thinking something was going to get fried. Then I checked around the components and everything was fine. So I powered it up again and nothings wrong except this highly irritating sound. I can't hear it through my headset, and I booted up without the harddrive and cdrom drive plugged in to see if it was those making the noise. I tried picking up the sound with a mic but it doesn't get picked up.
Another thing is that when I my case and psu (Thermaltake Damier case and Thermaltake Silent PurePower 420w psu which came together), it was on the wrong voltage on the back (220) and although the lights and fans would turn on the computer wouldn't boot, and I think this noise might be from the psu, but it didn't start making the noise until I flashed the bios. I'm going to a computer shop to have them check it out tomorrow, but I was wondering if anyone has had a similiar experience after flashing bios. My computer works fine but its making this high pitched electrical sound. I've run various test that come with motherboard monitor 5 and sandra and everything is running fine. I'm thinking about resetting the bios chip or trying to get the mobo exchanged.
Also, whenever I open a IE window, or open anything it stops for a second, and also when something is loading it stops making the noise for a second. It doesn't usually start making the noise until windows xp is loading. I'm definitely sure that its not the hard drive, cd rom drive, or floppy drive making the noise. I also unplugged the case speaker from the mobo and it still makes the noise. I turn all the case fans on off and the sounds seems to be coming from the mobo.

I've had both a 300 MHz SiemensNixdorff and a 266 MHz of same brand. Boy, did they take a beeting! Reliable though and good for office work. One of them is still alive, I think. Pentium II both of them, I think.
Two different approaches to noisy system:
1
Motherboards making a Siren-sound
If your board is making the sound of a firetruck, BEEP-BOOP-BEEP-BOOP...
Check the folowing:
1. CPU too hot
2. chassis intrusion was enabled in the BIOS
3. PSU is below min/max allowable value
2
The beeping is like a siren, High-low-high-low-high-low and it runs till I turn off all power to the system..... I bought a new heatsink and fan today that was copper... waiting till I get home to try it out.....
as far as whether the bios was reading temperature, if I remember right it was set for disabled by default.... will have to check again when I get home what it was set for...

MSI 770T-C45 won't post after flashing BIOS with M-FLASH

After flashing AMIBIOS 8.3 to v8.7 with M-FLASH via USB stick I can't get any post.
Had I read this forum before I wouldn't have done it, but here I am.
Fan starts, LEDs are off, no beeps at all, power button does nothing. Black screen.
After force flashing (yes, I am THAT stupid) the prompt said it would reboot in 5 seconds and after that nothing.
Here's my setup:
Board: MSI 770T-C45
Original Bios: v8.3
Flashed Bios: v8.7 (flashed with M-FLASH)
VGA: EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660
PSU: Enermax FMAII EG465AX-VE 460W
CPU: AMD Phenom x4 9650
MEM: Kingston DDR2-667 4x2GB KVR667D2N5/2G
HDD: SAMSUNG 840 SSD 250GB
OS: Windows 8 Pro 64bit
I tried every CMOS clearing method found in previous posts and threads (including this and this.)
1. Unplugged from power, waited 5 minutes, removed the battery (5mins), changed jumper position (5min), switched it back (5min), plugged it in (5min) and powered up with and without USB stick in the hub next to network hub with old BIOS (v8.3) inside. Pressed CTRL+HOME, anything, not a single message or beep or LED flashing.
Also I removed all RAMs and kept one in the first socket. Nothing.
I really don't know what to do next. What seems to differ from other users is LEDs non working, what does that mean?

The problem here is that after update 8.6 the m-flash module was updated, so yes your mobo is a brick, but there is still hope for it. I had the same situation a few days ago with the exact same model and was able to recover it by following the steps on listed on the below posts:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=133578.0
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=129989.0
It may seem complicated at first, but trust me its not at all.
Anyways you probably already have another mobo, send it for RMA or used it as frisbee, but it may come handy for some other doing the same noob flashing as we did

Flashing bios + ME ofZ87-G45 Gaming Mainboard from 1.5 to the latest 1.9.

I have been reading and watching a lot of videos on the subject..including the general threads here.
So my understanding has become ... do not use liveupdate 6 (mine can't even tell what I have installed). M-flash is the official way to flash bios and it works well if you choose uefi + ME.
I want to flash my bios because my USB 3 front ports have always been flaky and hoping for a bit more system stability (4 cpu hardware corrected errors since put together system in march) and in ultra rare case system will become unresponsive. Plus, will have room to upgrade to new cpu in future.
I did not enable the overclocking in the bios, but it is enabled. From what I have read ..is it then true that I must disable this before flashing?
I have also downloaded the 1.9 bios for my Z87-G45 Gaming Mainboard and placed it on a USB 2.0 flash drive that must be plugged into a back usb 2.0 port (though mouse and keyboard are in the legacy ports).
My understanding is that I simply have to boot into the bios ...with the usb stick plugged in .. disable the overclocking and then choose upgrade uefi bios + ME. choose the file listed and wait. When it is flashed, it will reboot and then flash ME.
My question here is .. how will it flash ME? does the bios file also have the ME information?
And after the bios is successfully updated and set back to how it was set before the flash ... the last step, I understand ..is to install the ME driver package ... I have the ME10 zip of 75 meg ready.
Do I understand this correctly ... other than needing to know how ME gets flashed from the one bios file (which is E7821IMS.190)?
Is there anything else I need to ask to make this update foolproof?
TIA for the help )

To make it foolproof follow the below, it will update bios and ME firmware. After flashing ME driver needs to be reinstalled in Windows too.
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
A.) Download the attached archive (E7817IMS_660.rar.rar) and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
B.) Download and install the Forum flash tool.
C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
F.) Boot to the USB
G.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash
H.) After flashing reinstall ME drivers in Windows: http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_amt90_mb.zip

How to Flash MSI Guides.
There are different ways to flash the bios but to keep things simple will concentrate on the MSI Official methods :-
1) Award Flash BIOS Procedure 98/ME
This method assumes access to hd formatted using FAT32 & therefore readable by DOS.
2) Flashing the BIOS for Users using NON FAT file system
For use with Linux based & NTFS File systems - HD Not readable from DOS. Using this procedure the the files are copied to the virtual drive before running the flash utility. So the flash effectively is all done in memory.
This will be the method used by the majority of us. So:-
Follow the instructions in the last link (Thanks Bas)
The details below are additional checks/notes referring to the steps in Bas's guide, which may be useful.
Essential
2) Know Your model number - Is of increased Importance for NEO4 users - We have already seen instances of this.
5-1) Ensure you have a Boot Floppy with CD suport (this creates the Virtual drive used in the process) If you haven't got such
a boot disc see BootrDisc.com link in Rescources.
5-2) B4 booting floppy - Enter Bios & Load Optimised Defaults - To ensure that bios is returned to stock & any overclocking is
turned off.
7) If you miss the ramdrive letter the last DOS message will show your CD drive letter. The Ramdrive is the letter preceeding
the CD Drive. EG CD = D Ramdrive = C
Optional - Gives better control of procedure
11) Use of Switch command options with AWFL833C.EXE /py/sn/wb/cc/cd/cp/r TargetBios.file
Personnaly I use the switches as does Syar :-
Per Syar2003 Iv'e always used :
AWFL833D W7030NMS.xxx /py/sn/wb/cc/cd/cp/r
or
AWFL833D W7030NMS.xxx /py/sn/wb/cc/cd/cp/f/r
And a hard reset with jumper when done .
For a more detailed explanation of switches see :-
Syar's Bios Switch Explained
or Syar's Bios Collection - Flashing.txt
See Also Using a Batch File to Automate bios flash
12) after flash , enter Bios & load optimized defaults , then save + exit with no other change .
That way you have a fresh system with a fresh non problematic dmi-pool and user settings .
After this Enter Bios & Re-enter your custom settings.
From Syar - Which one do I do first?
Thanks to Bas & Syar for the majority of info in this guide

FLASH PREPARATION
Always Load Optimised defaults & Save b4 flashing - NEVER FLASH When running an OC or Unstable.
If you need to flash & are worried about stability - run with a single module & test it it memtest 1st.
FLASH METHODS
1) Winflash (Syar2003) -
Winflash is safe to use if your windows and pc is stable .
How to get it Download & install MSI Live Update. Winflash is located "C:\Program Files\MSI\Live Update 3\FlashUty\Award
And as with dos flash reset bios and any overclocking to "load optimized bios default" + save, before and after flashing.
After winflash is finished it ask if you want to reboot - answer no , and shutdown (turn off) windows/pc instead .
After that disconnect the PSU's AC and reset the cmos with the jumper on the board .
This is how I use it , - safest way .
Note ! Place checkmarks on bootblock / dmi area /update all /reset cmos
Using Winflash - Syar2003's GuideWinflash
2) MSI Guides for flashing using a floppy
2 Flavours depending on OS the majority of us use the 2nd as dos floppies can't read a NTDS partition.
2-1) Award Flash BIOS Procedure 98/ME
This method assumes access to hd formatted using FAT32 & therefore readable by DOS.

Downloaded and installed Flash Bios and for some reason an error occured, not computer wont boot!

http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=136412...
THeres what i downloaded, shortly after i tried to restart my comp but it was all frozen. I used the button to turn it off and when i turn it back on its all black. Nothing happens, it just sits there. What the ****? This is the biggest bull that has ever happened.
How can u download an update and now ur computer is useless? Any ideas? Thx.

I have a P105-S6024
I downloaded the Flash Bios
03-04-2009 BIOS
ACPI FLASH BIOS 4.70 for Satellite blah blah blah.
While it was working the install got frozen and my comp froze. So i turned it off with the button and it never came back on. Well the screen is black, the fan works, the icon that looks like a cake blinks and then turns off.
I dont understand. Toshiba said i might have to replace motherboard? WTF! Are you serious my computer was fine before this. I was just playing Killing Floor everything was going great and i decided to update some stuff. I really wish i didnt do this man, this is bull. I dont have the money to fix this right now if it is a motherboard problem.

N500 won't boot windows xp after flashing BIOS

Hi, I purchased an N500 a couple weeks ago, it's been running fine on xp, except occassionally I'd get disconnected from the internet (a line problem, not the computer, happens here in egypt) but the wireless would not automatically reconnect to my line once the line was back up. The log file for the wireless card said something like "unable to set proper band" when this happened. Anyway my driver version was the latest version, so I thought maybe I needed to update bios. So I flashed bios using the flashbios utility that is listed on the lenovo website in the download section dedicated to my laptop model. The laptop then restarted itself, and then I got the black screen that says "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start correctly...." blah blah blah.with options to start up in safe mode, last known configuration that worked etc. However when I choose ANY of these options about 3 seconds later I get the blue screen of death, and the computer restarts! So how do I get myself out of this mess! Thanks Lenovo for that great Flash utility by the way!!

Try reinstall the OS. I hope it works. My opinion is when you update BIOS, The OS detected as a new computer (for some pcs). Try repair The OS with boot from CD.
Good Luck,....

What we need - a guide on how to flash bios, setup bios, and raid

Ok, a topic I see very often on many forums, and several times here, is the following; How to flash bios, how to setup the bios settings, and how to setup the raid array, and then setup the bios to boot from the raid array. Could we perhaps pull our heads togheter and write a detailed guide on these three topics, taking into account how to do it on the most used (commonly written about) MSI boards? and perhaps put as a sticky?
It would help many novice users trying to deal with these problems. I am willing to write on the subject of flashing bios on the MSI K8N SLI Platinum and how to install a Bios Saviour.

B3 bios reports cpu temp 10c higher than b5 bios on k7n2 plat

Dear list,
b3 bios reports cpu temp 10c higher than b5 bios on k7n2 plat after reading posts that b3 is more stable changed back to that so far so good, seems more stable its just that cpu temp was 45-50 c on b5 bios but on b3 in the bios is says 60 c and in core center it now says 40c but was 70c before I re booted very odd indeed, its stable but soemtimes doesn't shutdown have to turn off but thats probely a widnows probelm somewhere.

I got this one with a heat duct on it. yes its all seated well and clean, just downloaded a corecenter update, cleared the cmos and started again. I am now getting 44 c for the temp now. What the bios says I dont know, could be that I hadnt cleared the bios that the temp was reading wrong.

Unrecognised system type error when trying to flash bios

Hey,
I need your help again.I just tried to update my bios (j100 8256g4g motherboard) from 42KT42AUS to 42KT47A.
When i boot the image it gives me the error : Unrecognised system type.The flash update cannot continue.Press ctrl+alt+del to restart.Thanks!

hi john12,
Just to verify, is your machine type included in the list below? If not, this is most likely the reason why the BIOS update won't continue.
Flash BIOS update - 3000 J100 (type 8252, 8253, 8254, 8453, 8454, 8455)
You can find the MTM (Machine Tpe Model) printed on the tower or by typing dxdiag on a command prompt / run dialog box.

How can i flash bios without floppy drive

i need help with flashing bios without a floppy because although the floppy is in windows and the bios every time i try to use it, it says to insert a disc i have seek floopy enabled and it post as if it is ok the drive works i have tried 2 drives 2 cables and turned the cables round tried all i can i think lol ....
thanks guys

it can also be done using a CD-rom. I flashed my BIOS twice using cd-rom. Use Nero or any cd-writing program to write the bios files you download to a CD. Afterwards, just use the Windows 98 installation cd to boot into DOS, then take out the Windows 98 CD and put in the CD with the BIOS files on it and run the program just like from a floppy.
