Games crashes with Virtu MVP software on Z77A-GD65-Gaming

Hi,
I have set-up Virtu MVP with d-mode in the bios, installed Nvidia and Intel HD drivers but are having problems with games crashes.
With version 2.1.223 my issues are:
- All Call of Duty games crash on start with VV & HF enabled
With version 2.1.224 my issues are:
- Graphics corruption / artefacts with Crysis.exe
- Virtu MVP control panel does not allow editing and removing of games, also 'H' column is missing with game selection
- All Call of Duty games crash on start with VV & HF enabled
I am using Windows 8 Pro, Core i7 3770K with MSI NGTX 670 PE/OC
Lucid web site says that I have to contact mainboatd manufacturing (i.e. MSI) for support - is that correct?
Thanks

Lucid MVP has proved to be a disaster. With some games it seems to work and other not without considerable effort. My advise would be to disable the feature. If you wish to use gpu virtualization, you can try assigning Phys x to the cpu via the NVidia control panel.

    I have the mainboard but I lost the CD key so I download the driver on website instead, everything working fine except for this one 
    Whenever I attemped to install it's just saying "No supported hardware found in your system. The installer can not continue" 
    Is it me or MSI forget to put the E2200 chip on 
    Any ideas how can I fix this?
    Thanks

    Well, I can't get the psu out so i put some paper under the mainboard instead( alot of paper) and it still doesn't work :(

  • Z77A-GD65 Quick Sync with Virtu MVP Issue

    Hi everyone! My apologies if this has been answered elsewhere but my searching didn't find anything conclusive. I'm a very happy convert from an EVGA P67 SLI board (ugh) to an MSI Z77A-GD65 (YAY!) So far, I absolutely love this board but I'm having an issue I hope someone can answer. I run a YouTube channel and render a lot of video using Sony Movie Studio Platinum. This product is supposed to support Intel's Quick Sync technology to greatly speed up processing times. Normally, you need to have a monitor running off the IGP for this to be available but Virtu MVP is supposed to get around this. I have a GTX770 as my main video card and a Core i7-2600K which is confirmed to support Quick Sync. However, I've had no luck getting Quick Sync to appear as available to Movie Studio Platinum. Here's what I've done:
    1. Enabled IGP in the BIOS (also tried making it the primary display adapter, didn't change anything.)
    2. Installed latest drivers for both Intel HD 3000 and my GTX770. Both are available to the system.
    3. Set Virtu MVP as D-Mode (either mode supposedly enables Quick Sync and D-Mode's obviously better for gaming.)
    4. Installed the Virtu MVP software and created a profile for Movie Studio Platinum. Tried it in both D-Mode and I-Mode through the software.
    The short of it is that Movie Studio Platinum does not recognise Quick Sync as being available. It's just not selectable which means it can't detect it. I've also tried plugging my secondary monitor directly into the IGP. This isn't supposed to be necessary with Virtu MVP but I don't game on my second monitor so whatever. Still nothing. I'm kind of at a loss for what to do now. I've been told that most mainboards require you to enable Quick Sync specifically in the BIOS but I don't see that option. Is it just always enabled when the IGP is on this board or does it have to be toggled elsewhere?
    If anyone has advice on this, I would really appreciate it. My purchase of this board wasn't contingent on Quick Sync but given the amount of video rendering I'm doing right now, having that acceleration would be a massive boon to me. This feels like I'm just missing something simple. Any advice people can offer? Thanks a ton everyone!

    I actually did download the latest MVP from their site, is that what you're talking about or something else?
    I'm pleased to report that my Quick Sync issue has been resolved and well, it was pretty much my fault. Turns out only certain rendering profiles in Movie Studio Platinum are able to use Quick Sync. Their documentation didn't make this clear but I stumbled over the solution and it's working like a charm. Thanks!

  • Z77A-GD65 Gaming

    So I just updated my computer from an Asus P8P67-Pro to the MSI Z77A-GD65 Gaming motherboard, I also updated my CPU to an i5-3750K. I am having some issues with games crashing, especially Metro Last Light and Far Cry 3.
    I checked the CPU and GPU temps and the CPU is maxing out at 51C and the GPU 60C, so I figured it wasn't heat related. Then I ran Memtest86 and discovered that I had some bad RAM. I got some more RAM and installed it and ran Memtest86 again for hour and a half and found that there were no errors.
    I also ran Prime95 for two hours and had had no failures. I also monitored the PSU voltages and they appear stable. I have a Corsair HX750 that is not that old and so far it has been rock solid.
    So I tried to start Metro again, and sure enough about 5 minutes into the game it crashes. Completely freezing the computer, I have to CTRL+ALT+DEL, sign out and then log back in to get to a usable desktop again.
    I don't think the GPU is bad because I can run 3DMark with no issues, also MSI Kombustor causes no issues.
    I have also ran Crystal Mark on all of my hard drives and they are producing expected results.
    My 3750K has turbo boost OC'd to 42 on each core, but as I have said running Prime95 or any other benchmark causes no crashes.
    Also I will add that these games are all within Steam, so possibly it could be the Steam client itself causing the issue.
    I am running the lastest Nvidia driver 320.88, but rolled back to 314 and had the same issue.
    After replacing the RAM and still having the issue, I have decided just to start with a clean slate and am re-installing Windows 8 Pro and all of the Steam games. But other than that I am at a complete loss, does anyone have any other suggestions?
    One last thing, the digital code read out always shows A0 when in Windows, shouldn't it show the CPU temp?
    My Specs are:
    i5-3750K turbo OC to 42
    MSI Z77A-GD65 Gaming
    16Gb Corsair 1600 RAM
    MSI GTX670 PE OC
    Samsung 830 256Gb Boot
    WD Black 2TB Game drive
    WD Black 700Gb Storage drive
    Corsair HX750 PSU
    Cooler Master  212 Evo

    After adding the new RAM everything seemed to be working well, however Metro Last Light still crashes at the same spot. Completely freezes the computer and I have to CTRL+ALT+DEL sign out and then sign back in. Then if I try to launch the game again it immediately crashes, I have to reboot the computer before the game will run and then again it crashes at the same point. I am playing Metro on Steam, please note that this happened before and after I replaced the RAM I completely reinstalled Windows 8 and again the game is crashing at the same point. I did completely reinstall the game when I reinstalled Windows. I figured I would then try to play Crysis 3 on Origin, and am able to play it for about an hour and then it crashes with dxgi_error_device_removed and if I try to relaunch the game it just crashes immediately. I again have to reboot the computer before I can play the game again. The GPU temps never get over 61C, and I have the MSI GTX670 PE OC card. Could the card be defective, or possibly even the motherboard?
    I ran Furmark for 15 minutes and had no issues, but I did notice that if I try to start Furmark after a game crash it just crashes as well until I reboot the computer. I was having the issue with the Nvidia 320.18 drivers so I updated to the 320.49 and still the same issue. I am just at a loss here as what to do next.

  • Connection drops - MSI Z77A-GD65 Gaming

    Hello there.
    I've tried to search for a similar issue on the forums, and the interwebs in general, without any luck.
    So recently I upgraded almost all the parts in my old computer, including the motherboard which is now a MSI z77A-GD65 gaming motherboard.
    So, after my new setup, I'm having troubles with internet connection losses during gameplay.
    The connection losses only lasts for around 5-10 seconds before I'm connected to the internet again, and it happens from every half an hour, to not at all, but it is an annoyance when playing games, as you can imagine.
    I've been in contact with my internet provider every couple of days for the past week to see if it was a problem at their end. Although I got a new router, there doesn't seem to be a problem with the connection in general. They couldn't see anything on their end at least. And if I plug my laptop to the router via cable, I don't get the dropouts either.
    So.. I'm faaairly certain it has something to do with the new hardware, more specifically, the motherboard. But I am not sure.
    What I have done, is to check the connection, obviously.
    I have also updated all drivers, using the LiveUpdate 5 tool that came with the motherboard (which was pretty intense since it updated the BIOS as well, and after that I couldn't boot until I reset the pins).
    Anyways, drivers updated, couldn't find more recent ones.
    I've checked if there has been a problem with the servers at the game company of the game I am playing, not the issue either.
    Also, the yellow "warning triangle" at the connection icon in the taskbar is also showing for the brief moment of 5-10 seconds (not enough to do a troubleshoot)
    I didn't have any problems with connection drops with my old computer, even at 8-9 hour gaming sessions.
    Note that there doesn't seem to be any pattern in when the connection drops, as it can be from every half hour, to not at all during an evening of gaming. And there is no connection between what I am currently doing in the games I play, when the connection drops.
    I hope you can help me out, because I have no clue at this point.
    /thanks

  • Error 55 Msi Z77A-GD65 Gaming

    Hi guys,
    I'm new in this forum..
    I bought a new mainboard this is: MSI Z77A-GD65 Gaming.
    My components are:
    Intel i5 3570K
    Asus Geforce 660 2GB
    Ram Kingston Hyperx 2x4GB 1866Hz
    The problem is, when i started for the first time the PC i read in the display "Error 55", I tried with the RAM in dual channel (1:2)(1:3)(2:4)(3:4) and in single channel with only 1 ram.
    What I can do now?Have you already reported this problem? I can't even get into the bios, in practice, I was not able to turn it on the PC.
    For more info you can contact me. Thanks and let me know as soon as possible pls.

    Do >>Clear CMOS Guide<< with power cord removed, if no change, try with another and different type of RAM.
    consult with memory support test list from msi web page

  • Z77A-GD65 Gaming CPU Core Speed Lock 1.6Ghz

    Hello everyone,  this is my first time using a MSI board at first I'm using the default setting in BIOS and the core speed at idle is at 1.6GHz which is fine. However, when the CPU cores are at full load it still remains at 1.6GHz.
    I've done a bit of research tried different settings with EIST, Intel Turbo Boost, Enhanced Turbo, Adjust CPU Ratio, C1E, but it is not working.
    Just to clarify the power settings in Windows is set to balanced.
    Here's my rig's spec:
    Motherboard: Z77A-GD65 Gaming
    CPU: Intel 2600k
    RAM: Corsair vengeance 16GB kit
    VGA: AMD 290x
    Storage: Corsair Force GT 120GB
    OS: tried both Win7 and Win8 64bit
    Thanks in advance 
    P.S. I'm away from home at the moment if needed I can take some screen caps from the BIOS.

    For initial setup, establish everything works correctly at stock/auto/default on all the OC settings. Make sure EuP 2013 and Spread Spectrum are disabled. EIST and C1E enabled is fine, and just try with standard Turbo enabled and Enhanced Turbo disabled. Might try with C-State disabled. Download the utility Intel Burn Test (IBT) and see if the CPU speed ramps up to the Turbo speed.

  • Z77A-GD65 GAMING PCIe bug?

    Greetings
    First of all I'm Portuguese and i hope you understand my English
    I have this motherboard "Z77A-GD65 GAMING" gonna make 4 days and i fund (i think) 2 bug's
    1- I try to disable PCIe Gen3 on BIOS to have PCIe Gen 2 and wont disable it whatever i do still running on
    PCI3 GEN3
    2- I notice weird thing on PCIe, I'm running 2 Nvidia's GTX680 in SLI and the BUS Interface change from pci-e 3.0x16 @x8 3.0 to pci-e 3.0 x16 @x8 1.1 every second and the fps on game drop's
    real time screenshot at 3.0 and my pc info
    real time at 1.1
    eny ideas what's going on?

    Quote from: xmad on 01-October-13, 22:52:14
    Why would you want to disable PCIE 3?
    In your Geforce Control Center, disable the power savings features and see if it stays constant.
    I wanna disable PCIe 3 for performance test nothing more...
    I change the Power Management to Maximum performance and works like charme no more frame drop or 1.1 thanks mate
    Quote from: Papf on 01-October-13, 21:39:18
    PCIE version is dependent from the CPU - IB and Haswell - PCIE 3.0 - SB 2.0.
    Yes and no.. correct me if im worng
    PCIe 2.0 only for 2nd Generation cpu
    PCIe 2.0/3.0 for 3nd Generation CPU
    so thats why the board have
    PCI Subsystem settings ---> PCIE GEN3 ----> Auto or Disabled
    and that is something supposed to work

    thats a DXE code so its struggling to get pre-OS driver for the card! so i would suspect that the graphics card is faulty and needs to be returned for replacement!

  • OS X crashes with display intensive software

    My iMac is more or less stable when using normal office, mail and browser software. However, when gaming the computer has become very unstable. I play Civ4/Warlords, X-flight and Warbirds. Usually the games start OK but after some time in use they either halt or the screen is corrupt with seemingly random vectors. The problem has gradually grown worse.
    I have also noticed that the computer has gotten slower. Can this be due to Time Machine and/or OS updates?

    I've no idea what's normal or even the upper limits for your particular chips. To prevent overheating I would suggest more RAM, that's on the card and on the system. Trouble is it's going to be pretty hard to upgrade it on an iMac. Someone who has one will know more or an appt at the genius bar for options perhaps. Also, and I might be wrong, but if you can adjust the number of colours, resolution and actual size of the display on the screen it may have an effect. Again, someone else may have to chime in here.

  • Z77A-GD65 Gaming Code "Fb" Or "F6"

    I was running Memtest the other day on my Z77A-G65 Gaming mobo and the LED Debug display was showing "Fb" or "F6" I think it was "Fb."
    The thing is I cannot find this code in the manual, can anyone tell me what the code indicates?

    Not sure, which bios is the system running on? Is there a faulty bios code flashing? It could be something to do with a failed recovery.
    Recovery Progress Codes
    0xF0
    Recovery condition triggered by firmware (Auto recovery)
