Killer network settings on Z87-G45

Anyone is having problems imputing the Internet Provider Speed in the Killer Network Manager using decimals?
For the life of me, every time I put either 2.5 or 2,5 and hit apply, it turns into 25 Mbps. Only option is to use whole numbers like 2 or 3 Mbps. Using the latest driver found on MSI's Z87-G45 board website, 1.0.30.1003 for the network drive.

The best decision is to remove Killer suite and just using the pure driver. Use the >>Bigfoot Network cleaner tool x64<< to remove current Killer driver and reboot. Install >>this<< driver instead.

MSI Z87-G45 GAMING.. does the killer networking work with Windows 8.1?

I was scrolling through the reviews for this board and someone mentioned in the reviews that the killer networking isnt supported with windows 8.1 yet.
Is this still true or are there updated drivers for windows 8.1 now?
Thanks.

There is a driver posted on MSI's website for 8.1.

MSI-Z87-G45 Killer networking problem

MSI-Z87-G45 Killer networking problem, need help please!!!
1st instahttps://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=172016.0ll- internet works- but when I tried to do the "test" in the control panel for KillerNetwork, it failed to load, it said that I needed to install flash. I closed out that window that popped up for running the speed test and got a message that says that in order for the killer networking to work correctly I must perform the "speed test". So I went and downloaded the latest version of "flash player". tried the test again and got the same results. How the heck can I do that if it doenst see that I have "flash" installed....Grrrrr btw-Flash has been verified and works on the web page where that "test" resides if I go directly to the site, just not via this dialog box that the control panel uses.
So I deleted the control panel and driver and reloaded them.
Went to do the "speed test" and got a repeat of the above, so I left it alone and tried to play a game...the lag was horrible, the worst I have ever experienced - unplayable, so I guess that message about the speed test is 100% a must!!
I have tried everything I can possible imagine, I even reinstalled windows and all the drivers again....still nothing works with this "speed test dialog box"....What to do??
Thanks in advance-Rob

Thanks I will try that, if not, it seems the adapter may have an issue beause the internet is jacked up on it right now.
On that control panel program, I wonder why they wouldnt just program it to take you to the site via the browser and not try to keep it embedded inside that pop-up window<-------hey!!! that just gave me an idea- I wonder if the problem is that it is a type of "pop-up"!! Dang I will have to wait until tonight to try that - "enable pop-ups" ....never thought to try that since it wasnt inside the Chrome browser window itself...maybe its the fix!! "ummm" maybe!!! naaa it cant be that simple ...can it?? lol
I realy hope it is, well either of these...that lan adapter was the whole reason I went with this MSI board!!

Z87-G45 Network Driver/Adapter Issue

Hello,
Since I purchased this motherboard a year and a half ago I've been having an issue with the network adapter. Typically when I boot my computer my internet won't work. When running the Windows Troubleshooting tool it says that the wired network adapter is experiencing problems. In order to get my internet to work I usually unplug and replug in the network cable a number of times, disable and reenable the adapter, and/or restart until it starts working again. Not a very clean method, but it usually works.
In an attempt to fix this issue, I downloaded the network drivers from the MSI website. I removed the driver program and uninstalled the driver from device manager. When I run the driver installer I get a message saying You must remove the following installation(s) before the setup can proceed. Please remove from Control Panel -> Programs and Features: * Qualcomm Atheros Killer Network Manager
The Qualcomm Atheros Killer Network Manager is not listed under Programs and Features since I've removed it. I cannot find anything related to Qualcomm in my computer's program files or anything. I'm really not sure where the installer references in order to determine that the program is installed - I'm thinking it could possibly be a reg key or something. Regardless, my wired internet is not working at the moment. I'd appreciate any help you guys could provide in the matter.
Thanks

Hey again,
I was able to install my network driver software, but I'm still having an issue with the network adapter. I'm not sure if this is a driver or a software issue, but like I said in the above post, in order to get my internet to work through that network adapter I have to unplug and replug in the network cable a number of times and disable and re-enable the adapter through the adapter settings page.
Would anybody be able to advise me on this?

Killer Network drivers Windows 8.1 problem

I upgraded my windows 8 system to 8.1 yesterday, but since then the driver for my Killer Network card, from my Z87-G45 motherboard, been having issues. I downloaded the latest driver, but it gave an error when trying to install. I de-installed my older drive to try a clean install of the driver, thinking that I had my driver cd to go back to the old driver if anything went wrong. The latest driver wasn't compatible with my current operating system, and the older version from the driver cd wouldn't install either. Is a windows 8.1 compatible driver available? I would be able to download it on another device and transfer it via USB. Is downgrading to windows 8 possible without losing all of my files?
I hope to have fixed this problem as soon as possible.

I had the same problem with a clean install of Win 8.1. After trying different newer packages, which were not working, I uninstalled it all and re-installed from the DVD, which has the only working version so far (8.0.2.42 in Windows Device Manager). Also my BIOS update from 1.6 to 1.7 fails (posting another thread).

MSI Z87-G55 GL vs MSI Z87-G45

Hi
So i am buying a new MOBO, and as u can see from the title i am choosing between MSI Z87-G55 GL and MSI Z87-G45 Gaming. But i can't find any good comparisons other than that that one is blue and the other red and about 20$ more expensive. Some sites that list all the specs even imply that the G55 is better. So can anyone tell me what is the difference between then and which one should i buy?
Tnx for the replies

Quote from: Nichrome on 19-November-13, 02:05:56
I own z87-g45 gaming. All I think is that the Network Killer LAN, other then that, might be for example little difference between RAM OC'ing?
Just noticed that g55 doesn;'t seem to have Clear CMOS button on the back I/O panel? Not sure, just briefly overviewed it. If you don't mind the 20$, then go for the colour you like? I am not pro, but I am happy with my g45 gaming mobo.
----------------- EDIT ------------------
Just found on NewEgg that G55:
It says the board has integrated WiFi, but I'm not seeing any info about it in the specs. Anyone have experience with it? Would I be better off with a PCI card? Nov 13,2013
And apart from that difference (possibly, cant assure) G45 just looks a bit better (in my opinion).
Dylan B:Currently it comes with a free wireless adapter, but I don't see anything in the specs about integrated WiFi. Nov 14,2013
I own a z77 mpower which has integrated WI-FI. I can tell you that for that board at least, I wasn't happy with the wifi and used an PCI card until I ended up running a Ethernet cable. I wouldn't call the wifi adaptor terrible, but it wasn't as good as a top end pcie card.
Hope this helps.

Overclocking Help .... MSI Z87 G45 with i5 4670k

Hi guys first of all i want to say MSI ROCKS!!!!!....
Purchased my first ever MSI motherboard and very satisfied from it ..... the looks are killer and now i want to see if its killer in OC as well ....
My specs are as follows:
MSI Z87 G45 (bios version 1.7)
Core i5 4670k
GSKILL Rip Jaws 8gb (4x2) 2133 mhz (but running at 1600)
Sapphire R9 290 TRI-X OC 4GB
Corsair GS800 800 watts psu....
Now my goal is to get safest OC around 4.2 - 4.4 ghz with minimal voltage and fully stable ..... its my first time with K series processor and there are just so many settings in the BIOS .... I know how to change the multiplier and CPU voltage and i tried doing 4.4 ghz @ 1.15 but it wasn't stable in AIDA64 stress test .... so help me oh the mighty overclockers :D .... Screenshots of bios settings would be highly appreciated ....

Using Cooler Master Hyper 212+ with it with dual fans .... I did some overclocking on my own today (saw some OC screeshots of bios of Z87 G45 by some people) ...... 4.3 GHZ @ 1.15 voltage (but CPU-Z and AIDA 64 both showing 1.224) ...... Did 2 hours testing of Aida-64 stability and maximum temp i reached was 69c on one core and 65c TJ .... I couldn't boot into windows on the same settings @ 4.4 ghz ..... here are the screenshots of my OC profile .....
still my aim is to get maximum safest OC with lowest possible voltage ...

Z87-G45 Gaming not able to install Win7 x64 with Samsung 840 EVO

I have a brand new:
i5 4570
MSI Z87-G45 Gaming
250GB Samsung 840 EVO
1x 8GB Corsair ValueRam DDR3 1600
I got everything hooked up properly, but I am not able to install Win7 x64 through an USB pen drive (Kingston Datatravel 32GB USB3) I have a proper official and Legit MSDN ISO, formatted by the Win7 USB tool from MS itself.
Note that i do not have an optical device (DVD) installed so I cannot use it 'the old way'.
Bios settings are okay, everything is recognized
USB Legacy - Kingston Datatraveler
HDD Legacy - Samsung 840 EVO
Win7 setup loads properly; but before I can select the Harddrive / SSD to install Win7 on I get prompted that additional (3rd party) drivers are needed to proceed. The volume is not recognized. This happens 9 out of 10 times. In the 10% cases I do get the option to format the SSD and/or create partitions. However, installation fails after all, cannot load or find file ...
What I've tried so far:
Switch out the SATA cables and power cables
Switch through the various SATA ports on the MB 1 through 6
Tried UEFI and UEFI/Legacy (UEFI doesn't seem to work at all)
Update UEFI to V 1.50
All the above result in the case mentioned.
I have succesfully installed the SSD in an other PC, using the same pen drive and ISO and it worked like a charme, thus ruling out that the SSD, pen drive or image is corrupt.
Even when I switched out the SSD after Win7 setup has succesfully copied, unpacked and installed all the files (doing this on the other machine where it works like a charm). Then switching it to the MSI Z87...it fails; starting the setup procedure right from the start, like nothing was ever written on the SSD...
Finally i turned to Win8, and guess what, it installed without any glitches on the MSI Z87
What am I missing here, I would really want to install Win7 instead of Win8
Forgot to enable / disable something in the UEFI? I really don't know, google doesn't give much information on this specific problem (SSD is recognized properly by the BIOS / UEFI as far as I can tell)
The only thing I have not tried out so far is updating the Samsung SSD firmware to the 1.0 version which has been release 3 days ago...
Any clues, tips, hunches??

Quote from: Bernhard on 25-October-13, 18:33:41
Did you disable Secure Boot in the BIOS? If not, then Win7 won't load.
Hmmm not sure, thanks for the reply, will have to look into that later today!
I didn't change it from the default setting I think, unless it is part of the Win8 features in the UEFI. All where disabled by default, and I kept them disabled.
Where is Secure Boot listed in the UEFI, and any idea wether it is enabled by default?
::EDIT::
Found it in some screenshots, I cannot recall from the top of my head wether it was enabled or disabled, allthough my gutt feeling says it already is disabled.

Problems with network settings under sys preferences on a macBook 10.4.11

When I try to open my network settings from System Preferences I get a box telling me "Your network settings have been changed by another application". Clicking "OK" does nothing other then popping the box again. To get out I must kill the process.
Login as a different user on the same computer get the same results.
3 years old MacBook 2.0GHz (White) with 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, Tiger 10.4.11. Computer including network otherwise functions properly .
While I'm at it, my new MacBookPro 13-inch 2.53GHz Snow Leopard 10.6 seems to randomly fail connecting to some mail accounts while at the same time successfully accessing others (using Apple's native Mail) and, simultaneously randomly fail connecting to some web addresses, successfully with others, getting exactly the same results with both Safari and Firefox. At the same time the old MacBook (the one with the network settings problem) is successful with both the mail accounts and the web sites the newer mac fail. I just set the new one two days ago and used Migrations Assistant to transfer my files and settings. The process was anything but smooth and I had to struggle for quite some time to get the thing to work.
Any help will be deeply appreciated...

Hi Yaron, and a warm welcome to the forums!
To stop the pop-up, Go to System Preferences: Security. Check the box next to "Require password to unlock each secure system preference." Then lock Security.
Try this cure for Security update...

Case Badge for Z87 - G45 Gaming

A month ago , I purchased an MSI Z87 - G45 from my local computer store here in PH. The first board had problems like unable install USB drivers, unable to install Killer LAN, and doesn't include a case badge. I had the board replaced after a day and issues like USB and killer lan have been resolved but, the replacement board doesn't have a case badge again. I asked the store personnel if other MSI boards have it, they found none even in the Z87 -GD65 board. I've seen a lot of unboxings in youtube that the Z87 - G45 mobo included a gaming dragon case badge. The question is, can I still get an official case badge directly from MSI?

You won't get it here, as MSI does not participate on this forum. I would contact the customer service email for the country where you reside. I had a missing badge as well, and was able to get it shipped from MSI directly.

Z87-G45 Windows 7 (+XP) Boot/Install Failure

Hello,
I recently upgraded my PC with a new MSI Z87-G45 mainboard, processor, 8GB memory, and an MSI video card. I kept my old HDD drives (4x 320GB Western Difgital SATA drives), case, a recently-purchased PSU, etc.
Two of the drives contain my old Windows XP install, in a RAID0 config. This will not boot since switching to the new mobo, presumably due to the lack of AHCI drivers. So, I tried installing Windows 7 on the other drives, first in a RAID1 mirrored drive, then I de-linked them to try to boot as a single drive. Windows 7 begins to boot, then hangs on the Starting Windows screen and never completely loads. Booting from CD to Repair the installation similarly hangs with no respinse.
The mobo is set up in RAID mode. This is the mode it was in when I installed Windows. Switching to IDE or AHCI mode causes the system to reboot almost immediately.
I guess what I would like to know is:
What settings do I need on the mainboard in order for Windows 7 to install properly (not that I feel like another 4 hour installation ordeal)? I currently am using SATA in RAID mode, boot order DVD then HD, all others disabled, and Legacy + UEFI.
Do I need to install the drivers from the included driver disk, and if so how do I do that if the machine cannot boot? The installation procedure does not ask for any 3rd party drivers like XP etc used to.
And frankly, if the system can read from the disk just fine to boot to a certain point, why should it even have this issue? Don;t need an answer to that, it's just frustrating.
Details:
MSI Z87-G45 1150RT mainboard
MSI R7 ATI 260X video card
Intel Core i5 4570 3.2G CPU, stock HS
Team 1600HC DDR5 DIMM
600W Corsair PSU
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you.

How will I run Memtest from the USB without a shell or Explorer, etc.? Sorry if this is a stupid question, I built my last machine 7 years ago (XP).
prepare and USB key with memtest details are at:

Yes. SP1 is integrated.
have you tried to install OS from the USB key?
maybe the dvd disk can't be read due disk itself or due optical drive and cause some issue.
what is your current bios version too?

Z87-G45, 80%+ Memory Usage in Task Manager

hey guys ran into another problem
i'm using windows 8.1 it's a fresh install and i'm running into high memory usage problem. I was running at 99% while idling earlier (system was lagging hard) so i system restored to the previous day and everything was fine until now. I see it slowly creeping up. While typing this i'm running at 84% Memory usage which seems absurdly high.
I'm using 8gb of Gskill Ram so I tried to follow the sticky above, but my BIOS would not let me changed anything under the "Advanced DRAM settings" not sure what that is either?
Anyone got a quick fix to this problem?

Just updated my killer network drivers because i saw that sticky about people having problems with it.
This dropped my RAM down to 18% while typing this at this very moment. I'll let you know if it creeps up again.
My next question I guess is what is normal memory usage on windows 8.1?
