FM2-A75MA-E35 won't boot

Howdy,
well, I put my brand new system together and it won't boot. Actually, it won't even enter BIOS setup. Would anybody help me? This is the story:
When I powered it on for the first time, I saw only a little '99' number in the right bottom corner and the system halted (I read somewhere, that 99 is for POST failed with Super I/O test - is it true? What does it mean?). I restarted the system and try to enter BIOS setup. While holding the DEL key, 'Entering setup...' appeared in the left bottom corner and system halted (99 still in the right bottom corner). So I started disconnecting things from the system with the same result until I disconnected PS/2 keyboard. Without keyboard the little '99' disappeared after reboot. OK, so i tried another PS/2 keyboard (working on another system) - '99' was back after reboot. Then I removed everything, I kept only APU and power. After reboot I heard three beeps, which is correct - no memory. I inserted memory in DIMM1 and connected VGA - no beeps (so RAM is working), but screen remains blank and system is halted. Then I got the idea to clear on-board RAM with JBAT1. Voila, after restart I saw finally some information on the screen.
I connected everything back but with the same result as when i started int for the first time.
Bootable disk was inserted in the DVD drive all the time (I tried restart several times without it, nothing changed). Each manipulation was done when power was off.
I stuck here so I will appreciate any idea.

Keyboard is Genius KB-110X PS/2 and mouse is Trust Optical Mouse 16591 USB (both were second cheapest in the store). I took the board out of the case, kept there only the CPU, one memory module and VGA connected - nothing, just blank screen. I switched it off, connected keyboard and started the system - '99' in the corner and system froze. So basically the same behavior as with board in case.

    Even though I have uefi+legacy options selected in boot options, The options for legacy boot have disappeared from the boot options menu.  Am I missing a bios setting somewhere.  I needed to boot to dos and access the USB drive and attempted bios reset to default.  When I rebooted and set boot for uefi+legacy, the legacy boot options no longer display on the f11 boot menu

  • Issues attempting to flash 2.0 BIOS on FM2-A75MA-E35

    OK, so I'm planning to put a Richland APU into my FM2-A75MA-E35 as soon as these come out. In preparation for this, I've attempted to flash my BIOS to 2.0, which did not work.
    Some background information, I've flashed the board before without issues, up to version 1.8. The process to flash 2.0 is entirely different now, in that you need to boot from a bootable usb stick, and then run E7721V20.exe.
    This is what I did. It then went through some checks which passed fine, asked me to confirm whether I really wanted to flash the BIOS, to which I answered Y, it showed the message that it is now starting to flash the BIOS, and that's it.
    It then remained in this state for a good hour before I finally drew the conclusion that this isn't doing anything. Even though it said not to switch it off while flashing the BIOS, it seemed to be my only option. I did, and luckily, all was working as previously, running version 1.8.
    In short, the flashing program didn't actually do anything.
    I am very reluctant to make another attempt at this point in time, because I'd much rather have the board in version 1.8 for the time being, than not have it work at all.
    Is there anything I could have missed? Is there any way in which I can successfully flash my board to 2.0, so that I can later use a Richland APU in it?
    Any help with this is appreciated!

    I've done another search on the 1.8 BIOS and I can't find anything concerning Richland support. The description was just a generic "BIOS Update", whereas the 2.0 description is:
    - Update CPU ID.
    - Support Richland CPU.
    To me, it looks like you need the 2.0 BIOS for Richland Support. If anyone could point me to any sources that the 1.8 BIOS already supports Richland APUs, I'd appreciate it. For now, I'll stick to my belief that you do need 2.0, until I've got evidence to the contrary.

    Version 2.0 for FM2-A75MA-E35 like all Win8 bios versions for AMD boards currently can't be flashed with the forum tool. It's only possible by MSI's (risky) way.
    And you can't even use M-Flash, like you can for all the 1.x versions. The only way to flash 2.0 seems to be to boot into DOS from a USB stick and then run the executable supplied by MSI. Will that likely remain the only way to flash to 2.x?

    I did the update and it worked. But I have an annoying problem. When activating Cool'n'Quiet in the BIOS, it's not work on cooler. Change frequently but not speed CPU cooler. Any percentage would choose the speed cooler does not change. Cooler running at full speed.
    Well, I was going to say that at least you managed to flash your board, but having the CPU fan run at full speed irrespective of BIOS settings doesn't sound all too good either, and you can't even flash back to 1.x now, or can you?

  • Cpu-nb voltage not changing for FM2-A75MA-E35

    I have a  FM2-A75MA-E35 with a A8-5600k amd cpu and I'm trying to increase the cpu-nb voltage. According to AMD overdrive its at 1.1875 and I'm trying to increase it but any voltage I select in bios is completely ignored for some reason. I even tried with the 1.33 beta bios. How do I adjust the voltage? Do I need a special program to accurately monitor the cpu-nb voltage or is it just not adjustable?

    OK i tried the one memory stick in the first DIM everything powers on but it is not booting from the harddrive ive tried getting into the BIOS but it just goes black if i let it boot up this is what i get

  • [SOLVED] FM2-A75MA-E35 A10-5800K no Max Turbo

    Hello, I have a MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 motherboard with the 1.41 Beta Bios & AMD A10-5800K with DDR3 1600Mhz & Windows 8 Pro. I did the factory reset by hitting F6 to go back to stock bios, now when I put Intel XMP enable on then save the setting. when I boot into Windows 8 Pro the A10-5800K show the processor 3.80ghz as Max Speed which is normal, when I encode a video it run at 3.95ghz but not at 4.2ghz. all I did in the setting is enable Intel XMP & that it. I have not touch anything else, Max Turbo is in auto. 

      Thanks for reporting back!

  • FM2-A75MA-E35/A10-6800K/Radeon HD8670D - cant load graphics driver

    I'm building a new HTPC machine (specs below). OS installed fine. Boots with generic Microsoft drivers. Tried to install chipset drivers that came with mobo. The AMD catalyst control center tries to install the graphics driver (13.350.1005.0000 Beta). The screen flickers off once, then back on, then off again never to return. I'm seeing talk about flashing the BIOS with a cheap trinity core then flashing with my Richland core.  I need expert advice on how to fix this.  Thank You

    i had the same problem in last week, but i didnt buy a new processor, my bios just dont let me do anything so, i put a booteable usb of windows 7 and i booting the usb from bios and ignore the message to actualize to richland. Then i could install windows 7 ultimate 64bits and download the new BIOS driver. And that as you make so easy you just need to copy the ".exe" driver bios and put in a usb free. Start program, upgrade bios, reboot, and finish! you have richland v2.2 or something and you can run APU A10 6800k with no problems =)

  • FM2-A75MA-E35 with A10-5700, CPU temperature at 85c!!! Is this normal?

    I just put together the system, see below (no overclocking), and using AMD Overdrive for stability test with CPUID software to monitor temperature:
    FM2-A75MA-E35
    A10-5700 Boxed using stock fan
    Patriot signature DDR3 8G 1333mhz 
    1T WD Greennnn..........
    At room temperature about 25c
    1. In BIOS, temperature after boot up jumps quickly from 25c to idle at 58c and the fan spinning at about 3200 RPM. It sounds like a small refrigerator.
    2. Idle in Windows 7, CPUID displays CPU temp at 42c.
    3. Stability test using AMD Overdrive with all components selected, CPU temp shoots up to MAX at 85c!!!!! average about 75c!
    I found out that A10-5700 maximum temperature is 71c.  I double check everything (connections and fan) and update the BIOS then run it again, the same results show up. 
    Is there anything wrong?

    Thanks Joe and wlahdone,
    I am currently waiting for the new A10-5700 CPU. 
    Have you try the last BIOS version 1.7 (1/29/2013) with Update CPU AGESA code?
    I also had BIOS problem. 
    BIOS version that come with the board, It hung when I try to save changes and exit. This issue has been reported by another user.
    BIOS version 1.5, Solved the save changes problem.
    *Both versions have the same funny temperature reading.
    I don't want to spend much time with this, I only need a simple PC or two, just driving to the PC store gas cost a lot of money these days.
    I had the same issues when i ve bought it - the freezing at save.
    It seems the board comes with BIOS 1.2 which is bugged ,it simply takes the OC settings at the first boot and overclocks the FSB ,this giving the freezing most probable.
    Clearing CMOS or pressing F6 and then F10 in BIOS solves the problem.
    I am on BIOS 1.5 and it s ok.
    The HW Monitor reports the 0 Celsius for the onboard video ,but i really don t care.
    I ve thrown at it Windows XP ,Windows 7 ,Open SUSE 12 ,Linux Mint and Simply Mepis.
    They all worked fine in spite of the little 5300 APU that i use for this HTPC , it runs everything
    I ve made myself a toy that plays 1080p and routes in same time ,a pleasure to see it in action
    After AMD releases the new APU-s ill switch from a AM3+ rig to one of these.
    The board BIOS reports nice temps if you use a proper cooler.

    Something seems to be really wrong with your setup. The standard frequency of a 6800K is already 4100Mhz and you say max would be 2175Mhz (assuming you mean under load). Try clearing cmos and retry: >>Clear CMOS Guide<<

  • Two issues with FM2-A75MA-E35

    Hi there
    1- In the uefi bios startscreen it gives the correct board (FM2-A75MA-E35) and V1.2
    If i look at the board itself it reads MS-7721 Ver 1.3 is this correct?
    2- After booting into uefi, the moment I enter the save config menu the mouse freezes. Hitting F10 instead does the trick.
    Changing parameters in bios with clickbios works well.
    Current bios version V1.2
    Thanks,

    7721 is correct but not as precise:

  • AMD 760K doesn't work in - FM2-A75MA-E35

    Hey guys, I just got this motherboard and found out that the CPU isn't compatible with the board. I've flashed it with the latest Bios (I happened to have a Trinity CPU spare) so it's now on 2.1 and still nothing. I've tried to go to the MSI support site but when I log in and try and do anything I get prompted to update my profile and then when I do that I get some weird error page (and the same thing happens when I try to create a new account).
    I was just wondering if anyone has had similar issues with the CPU and if they have a work around or if there are any beta Bios updates etc.
    Many thanks!

    its not in the QVL list: http://www.msi.com/product/mb/FM2-A75MA-E35.html#/?div=CPUSupport
     That CPU support list only goes up to BIOS 1.5 so it's out of date as of  Dec. 2012 and doesn't show any Richland being supported even though 2.0-2.1 BIOS supports Richland CPU's.
     It could be that since that CPU was only released last month that it will need a more recent BIOS update for support. You would need to contact MSI regarding that though as us folks here in the forum really wouldn't know for sure at this time.

  • Latest bios for FM2-A75MA-E35?

    http://us.msi.com/product/mb/FM2-A75MA-E35.html#/?div=BIOS
    The two latest bios are both v21. One is dated 6/05, the other 7/25. Anyone upgraded recently? Is the 7/25 just mislabeled (i.e., should be v22)?

     Appears that the latest is just a simple update of 2.1 that didn't require a BIOS version number change - Update BIOS module. Whatever that actually means/does I don't know.

  • FM2-A75MA-E35, Less Usable Memory than installed....

    I just powered up my new FM2-A75MA-E35 Mainboard with A6-5400K and 4G memory stick.  Running Win 7 Ult 64.
    When I used on board video, I had 3g out of 4G available.  I assume the missing 1G was reserved for video use.
    So I put in my ATI Radeon HD 5670 video card hoping that disabling the onboard video and using plugin video card memory would free up the missing 1G of ram.
    Instead, now I have 2.9G out of 4G available.
    Any help or guidance is appreciated.

    F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL if i'm not mistaken are G-Skill Ripjaws (they are known to be very problematic on MSI boards Due to a DEAL with a brand-X) try some different RAM and i would suggest some from Corsair of 1.5v instead!
    at most the board will dedicate with 8GB installed 2-2.5GB to the IGPU max (1.5GB if only running 4GB at the most) so it sounds more like a incompatibility due to the poor choice you have made when you bought the RAM!
    if its no incompatibility then you have some VERY FAULTY RAM so its either a incompatibility or very BAD ram involved here.... i suggest you get some different ram from one of these 2 Manufacturers (Corsair & Crucial) as G-Skill cant be trusted on a MSI board as they have a very bad rep and in particular the RIPJAW skew they make!

  • New motherboard (FM2-A75MA-E35) deliverd with Bios of other Mobo (FM-2A75IA-E53)

    I bought the FM2-A75MA-E35, i got a box with this model on and it's indeed a micro atx Mobo
    Well, i builded my New HTPC but got since i started building it i got multiple resets of the pc (just power off-on, in windows kernel power 41 error).
    After 2 days of troubleshooting, changing PSU, memory, SSD, ... I wanted to update the Bios from v2.0 to v2.1, I however got the error that my board was not supported, after looking in tools like CPU-Z i found out that my Mobo reported itself as FM-2A75IA-E53, an ITX Mobo, this also explains why I've an option in the bios for wireless and Bluetooth, which the FM-2A75IA-E53 has, but the FM2-A75MA-E35 hasn't.
    So it seems like MSI flashed the bios of another Mobo on mine in the factory? And could this explain my random reboots?
    Any suggestion other then getting it back to the shop?

    This thread can be closed. MSI USA send me a special BIOS to force flash.

  • M-Flash, FM2-A75MA-E35, System is not reboot or taking long time

    Hi,
    I have FM2-A75MA-E35 with A10-5700.
    Several days ago, I downloaded a ZIP file of BIOS version 1.7 from MSI. After extracted, it was the same version 1.5 (.150 extension), but with older version of .EXE compared to my previous BIOS version 1.5 download.
    After the flash screen ended, the system was not reboot almost right away like my previous 1.5 flashed, but with blank screen, fan running fully speed, and both HDD LED and Power LED lite up.   About a minute late, I pressed Power with not respond then Reset also with no respond.  Several seconds later, the system rebooted and Windows loaded.  Later, I flashed the system back to previous 1.5 and everything seemed to be OK.  Yesterday, I checked MSI site and saw that the actual 1.7 BIOS is up, I am thinking about flashing again. 
    Here are my questions:   
    What is going on after the flash screen ended?
    Is it save to 1) press power or 2) reset button or 3) pull the plug after the flash screen ended, If the system is not reboot or responding for about a minute?

    I flashed it the same way that I did with the early weird 1.7 version and it was working.
    After flash progress bar completed, it took about less than 5 seconds, the system rebooted twice with all the LEDs turn on and off and windows loaded.  I rebooted and went into the BIOS which shown version 1.7. 
    The scary thing was when I was in the BIOS setting the clock, the screen went blank for about a second once and sometime blinking , and it seemed to do that on the clock setting screen, not the main screen.  I think this might related to graphic buffering and programing. 
    I hope this is normal for this UEFI BIOS and not turns into a brick. 
    Please, let me known that if you think this is normal or not.
    Thanks,
