Updated: 08/05/07 - MSI P965 Neo-F Latest Official and BETA BIOS!

Dear All,
I've got an info from one of MSI Engineers for the DDR 800MHz RAMs support for MSI P965 Neo-F mainboard.
There'll be a BIOS v1.40 that enables the mainboard to support 1GB DDR 800MHz modules.
Another upcoming BIOS v1.50 will fixed the 2GB limitation on the board, allowing the board to run up to 4GB of DDR 800MHz RAMs.
I'll update this thread on any upcoming details that I can get.
I can't confirm when the BIOS will be officially released so please kindly have the patience to wait.
Best Regards,
Joe Chow.

The 17.4 gives me bsods with same settings as 17.3.
Likely MSI tweaked the auto voltages a bit at least it did for my 2600k your best bet is to start over with your over clock and avoid auto settings where possible especially voltages. Actual required voltages for your specific hardware always trancends bios changes much better
Quote from: lionfire on 14-November-11, 01:32:58
Conditioned, this means that your chip can't stand the voltage you gave it....Have you changed Vdroop to Low?
I have deleted bios, reset, date started from 11/01/2011- date of bios, but on every restart sometimes cpu throttles from 4.5 to 4.2 and sometimes stays with any load applied, to 4.5.
Changed Long, short to 255 and duration to 32000, changed overspeed protection to disabled, nothing....in every reboot, cpu throttles.
Going back to 17.2 bios until Ivy Bridge comes out....
Do you have ESIT, Turbo Boost, EPU2013 & Spread Spectrum disabled. What's your OC below 4.7 no need for PLL overvoltage either. Head over to your board specific thread they will get you worked out of trouble there. Fill out your system specs in this forums User CP first however so we/they know what you are working with.
FYI I wouldn't count on Ivy Bridge being trouble free it all sounds good but it's not that much of an upgrade from Z68 unless you are running SLI/CF. The main disappointment in my book is the max of 2 Sata III 6G native Intel ports. When you consider how much these new x79 boards will cost and how they are rushing it to market with out fixing the Sata issues it adds up to being short changed and Z68 will be more mature more stable etc etc for the near term. In the end it will take a next gen socket 2011 chipset, call it X80, like GF790 was to GF780, to fix it all which will be worth the upgrade IMHO.

865 beta bios with raid 1

you will have to wait for joshin who i gave 875 bios to to put it on his server
but there should be a link here soon thanks to him
afraid i know nothing else re whats fixed in it
just resoponding to those who moaned in the beta 875 thread

I do like to thanks the programming team of this Bios .
I have noticed from the first minute , after installing it , all the necessary voltage corrections , that this Bios includes , and I totally agree with them .
At my board with 533 Bus based CPU chip , and by working as suggested at the turbo mode , the AGP bus it is locked . ( In the 3Dmark 2003 ,got lower by a little marks) .
I would suggest , one also voltage correction on the CPU core voltage , like setting it at 1.58 or 1.60 by default , any way this is not a critical issue , as the CPU it is forgiving in the voltage hovering , but the rest sub system is not .
As bug report , I have to say that the clock generator , in the Slow setting , clocks the CPU even higher than the 1.3 and 1.4 Ver bios , from 135.5 the new forced bus is like 138 Mhz .
But if the setting Turbo is set , as the team suggests , everything is normal , like 135.5 Mhz .
With locked AGP , and the rest fixes .
In my system after of many hours testing , I found that this Bios works fantastic , and there is Zero instability issues . :D
I do not know if this is the right place to report this , but I have one small issue , with the on board NIC , my report haves nothing to do with this Bios release .
So , here is the story , in my setup I have connected the NIC with one Compex switching Hub , when I power down my system , the NIC it does not power down completely , and the result is that the Led Port indicator on the Hub, indicates that the computer is On , or that the connection is active .
To be honest , the NIC it does power down , but one second later , after the total system shut down procedure, the NIC power up it self , indicating 100Mbits connection ..
The on board NIC Led indicator becomes active, and accordingly my Switching Hub , indicates a live connection at 100 Mbits .
Is this normal ?? I guess, is not . ?(
Is there any tip that I should know , if there is not one , I would like to add this in my wish list , of what it would be nice to be included in the next official or Beta Bios update .
I would like to say one Big Thanks to the MSI programming Team , I know that they hiding around this forum , thanks again people .
I wish you all the best , and ask some extra money for MSI for your overtimes too , you worth it . 8)

You increased the DRAM to 1,8V ????
Can you post your CPU-Z SPD Tab please.
Sorry for my english, but it isn't my natural language! I mean that I set the DRAM voltage to 1.8V, because normal voltage of DDR3 is 1.5V.
The DRAM modules are: http://www.corsair.com/_datasheets/TWIN3X2048-1600C7DHX.pdf
Here is pic's of CPU-Z:

Z77A-G43 and latest bios, stable bios or beta bios?

I`m about to update my BIOS, Currently using ver 2.3, for my Z77A-G43, as official latest release on MSI website 2.8 version seems a bit outdated looking at BIOS versions released in here, what BIOS should I go with? Or would official 2.8 be the safest? Perhaps I would not go to the latest beta, I don't need that updated. I'm still on version 2.3 so I really need an update cuz lot's of fixes has been done.
I have been thinking ver E7758IMS.296 - it's second latest..
I don't need much CPU OC possibilities, I like to run it at stock + turbo, for 1 core, no PLL, no enhanced turbo, or what would be a good stock + turbo settings? I mainly need turbo for core 1 (and perhaps 2) as the game I play most is a 1-core game (well someone has said it a 1.5-core game).
SO what BIOS update should I get?
I'm mainly looking to squeeze some extra from my DDR3 (Kingston (KHX1600C9D3K2/8Gx) 2x4gb)). I'm going to try 1866, 2000?, 2133 and 2400 would be really nice! And going to squeeze some extra from GPU as well (Asus HD 7850 2GB) too.
Mainly looking for answer to BIOS here... But would be nice if someone would comment other too
EDIT: CPU = i5 3570K

Yes, I know about the RAM voltage issue, and will lock it to 1.5v.
Btw, I finally got BIOS flashed to 2.9!! M-Flash didn't recognize my USB stick, dunno why, last time when I flashed to 2.3 it worked fine. It just gave me message "Please plug in USB media and press enter to try again" - I tested every USB port.
So I used method found in this PDF article at MSI website "How to make a bootable flash disk and to flash BIOS".
I was also about to use the forum flash tool, but I've been suspecting it, has it ever failed? Broken a bios chip?
Right at the beginning I should of found out that XMP gives too much dramV to mems, and tweak it myself. XMP was giving dramV 1.65!! Should the XMP profile ( s ) to be updated for Ivy? XMP set my rams to 9-9-9-27 (CR: 1T) @ 1600mhz + 1.65V!! So I tweaked myself 9-9-9-24 (CR: 1T) and it's running fine with safe dramV.
I'm gonna keep the rams that way, I'm too tired to OC them now.. But time for GPU!

H77MA-G43 Failed BIOS Upgrade, Now BIOS Corrupted

PC Specs:
Intel Core i7 3770 Ivy Bridge
2X Kingston RAM Modules 4GB 1600Mhz
MSI H77MA-G43 Mainboard
NVIDIA GeForce GT240 Video Card
Hello everyone:
So, i've been searching for a solution everywhere, for quite a while now, and nothing... ergo this Forum Topic,
My Situation went like this:
1. Clean Install of Windows 8 x64, in UEFI Mode
2. LiveUpdate Tool installed
3. BIOS upgrade went in progress, part of the LiveUpdate automatic update
4. Accidentally confirmed the upgrade, while i was doing other things (i know, feel so stupid)
5. BIOS upgrade tool, erases BIOS 100% for Re-write it (Check )
6. BIOS upgrade tool starts to write the new firmware and BOOM Blue Screen of Dead in the middle of the process [NVIDIA DLL related issue]
7. Reboot computer
8. Now the board, is gracefully useless. Dead. No startup of nothing.
So, i understand that the BIOS is corrupted, i read in my Mainboard's feature page that it's possible to overwrite the BIOS from an USB Drive, but requires that the old BIOS start and boot from the USB Drive, so what should i do? i mean, i really don't have to post any problem almost ever, but this it's way out of my line of knowledge, so kindly i ask for someone help.
PS: i'm not so Dummy when it comes to computers. but for this treat me like one, so i understand really well how to solve this, because i really. don't want to buy another mainboard,
Thank you all in advance, i apreciate what comunities do for dummies like me...
Regards to you again.

i've been reading the last thread, been trying to do it with a usb stick... but i really don't know the thing with CTRL+HOME, it presses after computer start?, once? keep pressing?, multiple times?, that kind of things are not specified on the guide, my Bios file is about 8MB, so i guess it takes its time... without the screen feedback is so frustrating.... i can't found a specific guide for this boards, all of this is try and hope... there should be information more specific... i mean, should i contact MSI Tech support? you think, they would be helpful?
It was long time ago i cant remember how the process went. Did you also tried with the original drivers CD as i suggested before?
Yes is better you contact MSI support, in the meantime just get to a store to see if they have the tools to flash it.

MSI H77MA-G43 AND INTEL 2ND GEN

Hello,
i have made a budget pc for a friend with the following config:
MSI H77MA-G43
INTEL I5 2400
MSI GTX 550 TI
I have installed all the drivers but i can´t get any audio or ethernet. I've read about this and i come to a conclusion that might be some problems of compatibility between h77 chipsets and 2nd generation intel processors, since h77 chipsets ware made for 3rd gen. processors.
I've already change bios, installed the latest drivers and updates the chipset controller, but nothing. Anyone can help me or do i have to change the board for a P67 chipset???
Thanks in advance,

The board runs fine with an i5-2400 and bios 1.70:
http://www.msi.com/service/download/bios-19052.html
Audio is already working with default Windows driver.
Make sure you've selected your speakers in the Playback Devices menu in Windows. It might use the VGA audio at the moment.
LAN is running fine with the Realtek driver: http://www.msi.com/service/download/driver-2697.html
What ME version is the board running on? You can check that in the Settings->System Status menu.

Update on 875 and 865 next bios release

me .when is the next 875 and 865 bios due for release
msi.It will be release by 8/27
quote: me
and that dates for both boards yes?
msi.Yes
quote: me
can i assume the raid 1 bits been added in as you said a few weeks ago
msi.It was still not added as according to the test engineer, the Intel RAID 1 BIOS still has problem which is not yet resolved. So it might have to wait for the next further revision
so there you go thats what they have to say

"There is a BIOS setting in the 875 where you can choose Performance Mode: Slow, Medium, Fast, Ultra Fast or something to the extent. Is that the overclocking mechanism? "
No MSI calls that "MAT" There is some dispute as to exavtly what "MAT" is.
In my testing of "MAT" it is nothing more than ram presets. MSI, unlike other MB companies, for some reason has not figured out how to properly enable The PAT function.
For instance, if you choose "slow mode" your memory timings become locked in that mode. MSI erroneously claims that this feature "turns off MAT".. Try it and see for yourself. No matter what you set your dram timings to under slow mode, they will be the SPD of your ram PERIOD. This is a "fact" not my opinion.
My advice to MSI would be to completly "turn off this feature" until they learn to properly utilize the Intel 875's PAT capabilities.
It appears MSI is completly at a loss with this board at this current time.
Now it has been said to me that I am accusing "MSI" OF Being dishonest. In fact I am accusing the enigeers at MSI of being exactly that. They are not going to tell people, even people in their own CO that "we just are at a loss up until this time figuring out how to properly ultilize MAT, PAT, ETC.. Amd/or "we cannot get Intels 3.5 SATA ICH5R'S 0 function to properly run either. This is the contention I had with the moderator here. I could have said it in a nicer way, but It is clear people are confused by these issues.
Clearly, if this is the case, If the problem lies with Intel, then why have other MB CO'S Properly implemented the 3.5 bios? The answer needs not to be spoken again, it speaks for itself, the answer is common sense.
There are certain people in MSI'S Marketing depo that obviously have been given false information concerning this feature.. Well I will give you an example just how far MSI is lagging with utilizing the PAT function;
It was not until Bios revison 1.5 that MSI even introduced this MAT to the 875 bios. This indicates clearly that MSI did not utilize Intel's PAT function at all out of the box in the proper manner.
I am not here to "pick" on MSI.. This 875 bnoard can be a nice board. The problem is that MSI rushed this board to market when clearly it really still is a "beta board"
To clear this point up;
There is NO DOT FUNCTION on the 875 board. That function is the screen that automates overclocking with selected preset configurations. See for yourselves. Look on your MSI Boxes.. Do you see the DOT logo? Now look on the 865 boards, you will indeed find the DOT logo..Simple enough right?
DOT has names like "Captain" "Seargent" ETC.. If you can find that on The current 1.60 875 bios, ILL EAT MY OWN SHORTS!! DOT has nothing to do with PAT, while MAT "semi has something to do with it"
In my opinion, MSI needs to integrate their "MAT" with the proper "PAT" functions.An example would be;
MAT settings.. SLOW, FAST, TURBO, ULTRA TURBO.
PAT settings.. ENABLED, AUTO, DISABLED..
When set to disabled this would "grey out" all MAT serttings and give ram configurations back to the end user.
The above is THE RIGHT WAY TO ULTILIZE PAT..
The board itself has nice features. The major issue here is poor bios enigeering.. This is not meant to be an insult to MSI. If they work hard anough at this issue, WITHOUT SEEKING SHORCUTS AND BITCHING AND BLAMING INTEL, they should be able to implement the proper bios settings eventually.
Until then, do not expect top performance combined with stability from your 875 boards.. Gigabyte is having some similar issues.
All The MB CO'S had or have issues with PAT to a certain degree. However some, which I will not name becausae I promised the moderator I would not, have already correctly figured things out.. There are 2 that have that I am aware of. One I have already mentioned, the other one I was a little suprised that they did figure things out.. being that this other one is known for high rma's because of their tweaked out Bios features.(which people screw up)
MSI; do not blame the problems on Intel, you are commited to this board, its in market, FIX IT.. Hire the right guys if needed that have the knowlege and skill to do so. If not, scrap it and start over with another board.
BE HONEST, this includes telling your marketing people the truth. "we are having issues correctly implementing PAT on the new 875 boards, we apologize and are working on it very hard to better serve you OUR CUSTOMERS"
Deceiving the end user to the point he/she becomes confused over this issue, I will not stand around for. To the moderator; I have not rudly bashed on MSI, Nor have I named called them. It is up to you whether or not you wish to delete this post, or do the right thing and let people decide for themselves.. Again concerning this man named "Larry" I was not calling him a liar either. Let me ask you what does Larry do at MSI? Marketing? Correct me if I am wrong but if he is not in Asia, then he has nothing to do with the engineering of this board, and my contention is not with him.
See, I am for the end user, "WE THE USER".. Knowledge in our hands is power, and power to make the right decisions for our computer systems and peace of mind knowing they will work as advertised. I beleive we need to hold all CO'S to their words, otherwise, we the people will continue to be ripped off to a degree, constantly facing "buyers remorse." Peace
