How to Buy MB for BIOS Compatibility

I have been reading here of some instances where MSI motherboards were purchased but would not support the target CPU, and required extra activity for a BIOS upgrade.
How can I buy a MB and assure that I will get a BIOS that will run the 3930K?

Bernhard,
Thank you. I found:
- Update CPU Micro Code
- Optimized CPU OverColocking capability
Version 1.2
Release Date 2012-02-14
the version 1.2 is the latest on the list. Looking at the different boards and CPUs, for any CPU, the compatibility table always points to the latest BIOS. :nono:I guess that must meand the MSI only recommends to buy the latest BIOS. Now if I can just find a supplier that has someone that can look to see what BIOS is installed and that MSI has labeled the BIOS.
I wonder if MSI labels the BIOS at all and if they have an encoding.
I wonder what is meant by - Update CPU Micro Code. This seems to say that the BIOS is going to update the microcode in the CPU. Well, I just looked it up and it is typical for a BIOS to be able to update Intel's microcode. Not that I know anything about the details of the CPU's microcode, but I wonder what is being changed and why.

Thanks.

Usually the best way is by contacting the manufacturer of the peripheral. Manufacturers have the best information for compatibility with other devices for their products.

I just bought more Ram how do I check for bios updates before I install it?

I purchased 2 4GBs 200 PIN DDR2 of memory from Crucial to upgrade my Pavillion notebook dv4t 1400 from 4 to 8 gbs
Series (DDR2) ( p/n NS244AV)
I'm running Win 7 Ultimate 64bit service pack 1
The directions say I need to check for bios updates with the maufacturer to see if I need to flash the bios before I install the new memory. How do I do that?
thank you for your help
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Please see "Updating the BIOS" to determine the current BIOS version installed and how to update the BIOS if needed. Please see the HP Pavilion dv4t-1400 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers & Downloads page for the most current BIOS version available for your computer. Click HP Notebook System BIOS Update (Intel Processors) version: F.66 A for a direct link to the BIOS download page.

Hi Clovis,
currently, SAP does not sell MaxDB support to non-SAP customers.
You might want to take a look at the ODMG, maybe they can provide what you're looking for: [Open MaxDB Group (OMDG) u2013 The User Group|http://www.open-maxdb-group.org].
Other option: this forum.

How to buy AppleCare+ for iPhone6 purchased from Verizon?

What the title says. Anyone know? Apple's web site is a waste of time.

John Avelis wrote:
Yes, those are both options. The web site will only allow the purchase of AppleCare+ if one is purchasing the product on the Apple Store. There is no reference to purchasing AppleCare+ elsewhere. Res ipse loquitur.
PS- being faced with a 100 mile drive to an Apple Store, that's hardly a live option....
PPS- Found out that a local independent reseller (Apple Specialist, Inc.) sells the AppleCare+. So I guess we're going there. Or maybe call the number. This is all WAY more complicated than all the other times we've done this. I don't AppleCare for it .
PPS- (to Meg St._Clair) Verizon only sells Verizon's Extended Warranties, and these are not nearly as good a deal as AppleCare+.
Um, yes, there is a reference on how else to buy AppleCare+. It says so on the AppleCare+ page: [https://www.apple.com/support/products/iphone.html]. Read that page again and look towards the bottom of the page:
Important notes
Purchase AppleCare+ with your new iPhone. Or buy it within 60 days of your iPhone purchase:
At an Apple Retail Store (inspection of iPhone and proof of purchase are required)
OR call (800) 275-2273 (requires you to run a remote diagnostic and provide proof of purchase)
See AppleCare+ Terms and Conditions for complete product details.
1. Go to an Apple Store.
2. Call Apple Support at the number provided. How is making a phone call complicated? You call the number, they ask for the device serial number, they perform a remote diagnostic that takes maybe 1-2 minutes, if that, and then you pay for it by credit card, either over the phone or they email you a weblink. The entire process shouldn't really take more than 10-15 minutes.
And Verizon does actually sell AppleCare+. If they say that they don't at the store, then ask for a manager, because the official wireless carriers that sell iPhones (and even the retail stores) are required to either process such a sale and register it with Apple, or at a bare minimum, explain to you that it is available at an Apple store or by calling Apple. Just because the person you spoke to at Verizon was ignorant doesn't mean that they aren't supposed to offer it.

How to buy software for Company

Hi.
We are creating the commercial software for iPhone. The question is how we can buy required software from Apple Store for the company because iTunes provides only private person buying.
Thanks.

I don't know what software you would need from the iTunes Store for developing for the iPhone, but the iTunes Store does allow corporate use of purchased apps. From the terms of use:
(ii) If you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, you may download and sync an App Store Product for use by either (a) a single individual on one or more iOS Devices you own or control or (b) multiple individuals, on a single shared iOS Device you own or control. For example, a single employee may use the Product on both the employee's iPhone and iPad, or multiple students may serially use the Product on a single iPad located at a resource center or library.
If you need an app for multiple users on multiple devices, you will need to purchase one copy of the app for each user, which will require purchase through multiple iTunes Store accounts.
Similar terms apply to the Mac App Store, if that's really what you meant:
(ii) If you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, you may download a Mac App Store Product for use either (a) by a single individual on each of the Mac Computer(s) that you own or control, or (b) by multiple individuals on a single shared Mac Computer that you own or control. For example, a single employee may use a Mac App Store Product on both the employee’s desktop Mac Computer and laptop Mac Computer, or multiple students may serially use the Product on a single Mac Computer located at a resource center or library.

How to buy lion for multiple business users?

I purchased through the App Store for myself. I need to use my login with the company info to purchase legit copies for another 4 business computers. How to do this legit?
-Larry

If it's only for 4 business users I doubt volume licencing applies. Simply make a bootable installer of ML on DVD; USB stick; or USB HD. Plenty of how-to's on the web, so do a search on google.

How to Buy Mixes for others

If I create a playlist in the iTunes store and want to act as a middle man for people who want to purchase it (they either dont have broadband or just dont want to bother with it), am I allowed to buy multiple copies of this playlist and burn it for them? That is, every copy will be 100% paid for but I suppose all these purchases will be under my account-- although the end product, a burned cd will go to someone else. Does this make sense?

Hi,
CON-SU1-AS2A10K9 contract if for ASA+IPS bundle. If AIP-SSM-10 ws purchased as a spare the contract would be CON-SU1-ASIP10K9.
I am not sure whether or not this Cisco Service for IPS contract can be used to cover just the AIP-SSM-10 if it was purchased as part of a Bundle instead of a Spare.
I would recommend that you check with your Cisco reseller or Cisco Sales Representative.

How to buy vouchers for Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate ?

I want to become Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate.
For this, I want to write 1Z0-007 (Introduction to Oracle9i SQL) and
1Z0-147 (Program with PL/SQL) tests.
I went through so many posts in the forum, but I didn't get the required answers.
Kindly reply my queries:
1) Will clearing the above two tests will make me Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate?
2) Should I purchase two separate vouchers for those two tests?
3) Should I give both the tests one by one at the same time or can I give them on different days?
Please answer my questions. Or atleast guide me where can I get the answers?

Kindly reply my queries:
1) Will clearing the above two tests will make me Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate?These exams fulfill the requirements of the certification which should be awarded if you pass the exam. Even if you pass the exams you are not certified until you received confirmation from Oracle via a success kit or Certview that you are certified
2) Should I purchase two separate vouchers for those two tests?In my opinion there is usually little advantage in buying vouchers; but you may have different situation with your particular situation. Vouchers also may go wrong on people from time to time. Probably the excpetion for vouchers being good is when discounted vouchers are offered as part of training.
See: http://www.pearsonvue.com/oracle
3) Should I give both the tests one by one at the same time or can I give them on different days?Best practice for ordinary mortals is probably to take exams on different days. However as you are choosing 1z0-007 and 1z0-147 and not the more modern choices of 1z0-051 and 1z0-144 I shall leave that to yourself

How to buy lion for another laptop?

I want to erase the hard disk and install Lion system in a old laptop. I want to install from a bootable usb. Can I dowload the Lion system in a diferent (and new) laptop? already I saw there is a link to buy lion and apple send me a number to download it. but I dont want to buy it and find the download try to install in the newest laptop or find the system dont dowload. I want to be sure.

Have you ever purchased Lion in the past? If so, then open App Store, click on Purchases page, locate your purchase entry, and Download it. Lion will launch the installer, but it will not work or you can simply Quit without installing.
If you never purchased it before then:
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
