KTA Ultra BIOS Update

moderating gentleman and friends with experience
When it wants to do a BIOS Update I must do it with completes version 1,3 ??
This completes version fixes the problems that fixed the previous versions or I must install all updates that they have published??(1.1 + 1.2 + 1.3)
By I complete, if my equipment this working well I must make BIOS Update?
Thanks

only update for fixes you need
if not having crc errors with large files leave it be
you only need update to one you want
no need to flash 1,2 3 etc

K9N Ultra BIOS update

Hi. I have K9N Ultra. I had Sempron 2800+ installed on it, and everything worked fine. Now I'd like to install Athlon64 X2 5600. BIOS POST said that it doesn't know processor's revision and won't work at all. I downloaded new BIOS from http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=bios&maincat_no=1&prod_no=253 (7250v3A.zip). Unpacked and copied Afud408.exe and A7250NMS.3A0 to disk C:\. Then I booted from win98 boot floppy and did the following actions:
> c:\
> Afud408.exe A7250NMS.3A0
BIOS update was successful, I turned off the computer, cleared CMOS with SW2 button and installed new Athlon64 X2 5600 CPU. Then I booted again.
The problem is that my system works unstable now. It may suddenly turn off in Windows when I play games. In Linux it may suddenly turn off when I use microphone in Skype.
Motherboard's version as it written on the board between PCI slots: MS-7250 Ver: 2.1.
How to fix it? Thanks!

Reseat the CPU and make sure CPU heatsink is mounted properly and no overheating issue occur.
It is not overheated, because my system turns off immediately after test call in Skype (in Debian Linux). I can compile software for hours, using 100% of both CPU cores, and my system works stable, so I can conclude that it is not overheated.
I have 2x1GB Kingston DDR2-800, GeForce 7600GS PCI-E, 2x250 GB SATA Seagate drives, Athlon 64 X2 5600 (AM2).

MSI K9N SLI/K9N ULTRA bios update

Hello everyone,
I want to install windows 7 on my Pc but during the installation my PC stucks and do nothing.
I have already tried a lot of things but nothing happened.The same thing again.
Finaly I think that I need to update my BIOS version because I have not do it before.(since 2006 when I bought my PC)
Probably I should do it from a bootable CD because my motherboard can not boot from a usb stick and also I don't have a flopy Drive.
Is there any official tutorial (maybe from MSI) to do it?
Do you have anything else to propose???
Thank you in advance!!!

KT4 Ultra bios update?

Does the new 1.2 bios allow you to unlock cpu's mutiplier ? if it don't will msi ever support it ?

Just go to a hobby (perferably somewhere taht deals with model trains) and get some silver nitrate varnish!! it's about 8 bucks and its just conductive nail polish!! igot it used a toothpick and unlocked my ship and if something goes wrong it rubs of with alchohol very easily!! Also make sure you fill the pits in with either crayon wax of epoxy !! :D good luck!

Bios updates for 845 Ultra?

Is anyone aware of any pending bios updates for this motherboard or has it been put out to pasture ? I'd still like to see a fix for the warm restart problem when overclocking in addition to the 1.65 core voltage limitation. Before anyone says that those won't be fixed - I can wish, can't I?

I have the 845 Ultra-ARU and I am running my 1.8A at 2.52 GHz with a voltage of 1.71 actual applied volts. This system is rock stable with a fsb of 140. I have done the VID-pin mod, however. I too would also like to see a BIOS update for a couple of reasons.
1) According to the temperatures being reported by PC Alert III, my BIOS, and MBM5, my CPU idles at 50 C and goes up to 67-68 C under a full Prime95 load. The reason why I think this is faulty is because I have run my computer with the side panel off, and there is no difference in the CPU or system temperature. Also, when running the Prime95 test, I've put my hand right on the heatsink and it is BARELY warm. The heatsink is making solid contact with the CPU, so if the CPU was actually at 68 degrees C, the heatsink too would be incredibly warm. My own hand tells me that it cannot be 152 degrees Fahrenheit.
2) THE MEMORY RATIOS ARE GARBAGE!!!!! I've got a 2.52 GHz CPU that is suffering a bottleneck from the measly 2.0 GB/s that my RAM is able to feed it. Every other motherboard I've ever seen gives you the options of a couple different memory ratios. I would at least like the option to run my memory at a different speed than my fsb. Perhaps a 3:4 ratio could be done? Just something so that I can try and get a little more bandwidth out of my RAM. I know that the board is only designed to support PC1600 and PC2100 DDR RAM, but how could it hurt to give the option to support PC2400 or PC2700, maybe even PC3200 DDR RAM? Plenty of other 845 chipset based boards can do that. (Not officially, but through a variety of memory ratios.) I'm just tired of not being able to do anything with my memory.

DC7700 Compac ULTRA SLIM DESKTOP PC BIOS UPDATE

Hello world
I’m using Windows 7 Ultimate on a DC7700 Ultra-Slim Desktop PC and I’ve been getting these really annoying freezes where the screen goes black for a few seconds then I get an error message “Intel Accelerated Graphics Drivers for Windows Vista stopped responding and has recovered.” Sometimes I get a bluescreen and the PC reboots- mostly when I play a video file or PC game.
I downloaded an updated Intel graphics driver which installed fine and actually boosted performance significantly but the screen flashes persist. After a lot of research I think I need a bios update but I can’t seem to find one for win 7 ultimate. Information on this stuff isn’t always accurate and I don’t want to take any chances with the installation. My current BIOS software is 786E1 v01.09, 1/5/2007 (Q965/Q963 Express Chipset Family) and the updated Intel Graphics Accelerator driver is version 8.15.10.1930, 9/23/3009.
I don’t want to mess with the BIOS so I’m hoping someone can point me to the right download. Also would it be possible to do the upgrade in a Windows environment as opposed to Setup or Command mode? Please help!

Could you please give me the exact product number for your computer?

or via CD/DVD:
http://www.bios-chips.com/e/bios-boot-cd.htm
already maked .ISO image for your board with latest BIOS version 3.5 can be found here:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=107727.0
how to use:
(open and burn image file with nero or similar to CD/DVD,reboot PC and boot from it, then you need to config twice when asked to start automaticcaly BIOS update.)

Sun Ultra 24 - BIOS Update problem

I have a Sun Ultra 24 where I attempted to update the BIOS to v1.5 using the Sun Tools CD v1.3. After successful install and validation of the BIOS, I am at a POST screen where I have the option to press F1 to load default values or F2 to run setup.
The problem is that my USB keyboards are not being recognized. I have tried all USB ports and two different USB keyboards. The system gives a beep, recognizing that the keyboards are being plugged in and out, and the Caps lock LED is lit for just a second, but after that it is not recognized.
The internal LED BIOS POST code is showing "85", indicating (from the Sun manual): 1. USB final initialization. 2. Switch screen back to text mode.
I have also attempted to remove and replace the BIOS battery.
Any other thoughts as to how I can recover my BIOS or get the system to recognize a USB keyboard? I do not have any PS2 ports on this system.
Thanks for any assistance.

I posted too soon, I was able to find another way to update the BIOS, and this worked. For some reason, my keyboard would not work earlier to enter the BIOS settings, but I was able to use Ctrl+Home to update the BIOS from my USB flash drive.
Here are the instructions from the Sun 820-2480-11 document:
Corrupted BIOS: System Does Not Perform POST
An interrupted or failed BIOS update, might result in a corrupted BIOS, which could
cause the system to fail POST and not boot. To resolve this, perform the following
BIOS recovery procedure:
1. Copy the file /BIOS/BIOSxxx.ROM from the Tools and Drivers DVD to the
root directory of a USB flash drive.
2. On the flash drive, rename the file BIOSxxx.ROM to AMIBOOT.ROM.
3. Insert USB flash drive into an available USB port on the workstation.
4. Power on the workstation, press and hold the Ctrl + Home keys, and watch the
USB flash drives access light.
5. When the flash drives access light starts to blink, release the keys.
6. Follow the onscreen instructions to recover system BIOS.
This procedure will be added to the Sun Ultra 24 Workstation Service Manual.

BIOS Update HP DC 7900 ultra slim PC from 1.08 to an higher version - ERROR

Hello,i'm trying to process an BIOS Update from Version 1.08 to a newer Version. Therefore i've checked many BIOS files you are providing. Even the BIOS file of 1.09 verion. It will not work. Please find attached the response of the Update process: Trying to flash via BIOS (F10 function) from USB stick or CD:Copying of BIOS file = 100%flashing of BIOS = 104% and nothing else will change Trying to flash via DOS Boot Stick and DOS Flash Tool:Copying of BIOS file = 100%flashing of BIOS = the percent counter will increase and NEVER stop (for example it reaches 389% and so on....) Trying to flas via Windows software:The process will run until 100% and than nothing happens. It seems that the program will freeze (program will not response anymore). Can you please try to help me to update my BIOS version? I need the update because Version 1.22 seems to have an update of the grafic component which i need. Thank you very much! Christian Maier Hallo, ich versuche verzweifelt ein BIOS Update von Version 1.08 auf eine neuere Version durchzuführen. Habe sämtliche Versionen ausprobiert, auch die direkt darauffolgende 1.09.Leider erhalte ich folgendes Verhalten des Systems: Flashen über BIOS (F10) und USB Stick oder CD:Kopieren der Bios Datei = 100%Flashen des BIOS = 104% und danach keine weitere Veränderung Flashen über DOS Boot Stick und DOS Flash Tool:Kopieren = 100%Flashen = zählt ewig hoch (z.B. 389% usw....) Flashen über Windows:Bleibt bei 100% hängen und macht nix mehr (Sanduhr. Anwendung läuft ununterbrochen über Stunden hinweg ohne dass etwas passiert). Ich bitte hier um Unterstützung. Grund des Updates: Ich habe nur einen Monitor der Über Displayport angeschlossen werden kann. Und erhoffe mir durch ein BIOS Update eine entsprechende Updatefunktion des Grafikkartentreibers, so dass auch der BIOS, Startscreen auf meinem Monitor angesehen werden können. Danke für die Unterstützung! Christian Maier

try running the bios update in safe mode.

KT4 Ultra-B BIOS Update problem

Well, I runned Live Update BIOS and found out that I didn't have the newest version. So i downloaded the newest (1.4), and followed the instruction for the installation. After it was installed, every thing seemed okay. Untill I started the PC, then I got an 'error' message:
CMOS Settings Wrong
Press F1 to Run SETUP
Press F2 to load default values and continue
I checked the CMOS Settings, nothing I could find was wrong. So everytime I start the PC I have to press F2, or else it won't start, it will just jump back to that message. This is not so much of a problem, but when I have to use the default values from now on it _IS_ a problem, because default FSB is 100MHz, and I loose alot of CPU. I now have AMD Athlon 1500+ 1,35GHz because of that BIOS update. What I really should have is AMD Athlon 2200+ 1,8GHz.
So anyone that could help me with this problem ??

There is a reason why it did not work.
When you buy a board and put a CPU in it, the board may not detect the CPU correctly,
So if your cpu was a 1470Mhz Athlon and the board detected it as 2.2Ghz what would happen?
The CPU would try to run at 2200Mhz and blow up
So manufacturers such as MSI set the CPU FSB to 100Mhz, must modern CPUs run at 166Mhz so by having it at 100Mhz you prevent the board from overclocking the CPU.
Do you see how that is a safety feature?
Now when you flash a BIOS you clear all your settings and the board gets reset to the safety defaults (100Mhz). This also happens when you clear the CMOS using the jumper, thats why it did not work
I assume someone else originally setup the motherboard and CPU settings for you?

KT4 Ultra Bios 1.2 Doesnt Work

I have just updated my Bios to verison 1.2 and the computer wont go into windows.
Infact I have found the problem to be the USB Via chipset thats at fault. I have Windows Me and the the computer freezes every time it tries to load USB.
I have put version 1.1 back on an no problems.
I have reloaded windows and the following error appears.
Windows has had to disable the USB function due to a internal problem.
I try to reload the drivers and it freezes.
I have just spent 8 hours to find the problem was the usb chipset.
Does anyone else have the problem ??
Thanks

I am running a KT4 Ultra with XP2000 Cpu. I updated my bios from 1.1 to 1.2 over the weekend, and now my once stable system is giving me no end of problems.
1, It would not recognise my primary hard drive and I had to clear the bios with the jumper four time before it would let me boot up.
2, Once I booted up and ran 3dmark, it was okay the first time but the second time the machine crashed and totally corrupted my hard drive. I had to reformat my hard drive and load a backup (two weeks old).
3, I have now re-flashed my bios back to 1.1 but although the system is working I keep getting CRC errors when trying to backup my hard drive to my secondary drive. This did not happen before.
This 1.2 bios seems more like a rushed beta version than a real bios update, it has given me loads of problems and I now have a system which is still not working properly. Bios upgrades are supposed to fix problems not create them!!
I would NOT touch this 1.2 with a long barge pole !!!

KT4 Ultra Bios 1.4 fixed?

There was an issue with the 1.4 bios update for the KT4 Ultra chipset and the temperature reading. I was misreading the temperature. Does anyone know if this issue has been fixed? I contacted MSI about it several times but haven't heard anything back.

Nope,still the same dated one as before.
Also when I installed v1.4 it sent Windows XP settings nuts with the HLT command enabled in bios.
So no matter if anyone says the bios is fixed,it aint yet.
There will be a different date on it anyway.

Bios update to support ahci mode

I have an HP Pavilion Slimline s5-1014 desktop. I changed the HDD to an SSD and now I need a BIOS update capable of enabling AHCI mode. How would I go about requesting this?

OK that is interesting, because the motherboard specs for your model state that your PC has the intel G41 (Intel Series 4) express chipset.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01903990&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en...
But the Intel ICH7 Family Ultra ATA Storage Controllers, 27DF and Intel N10/ICH7 Family Serial ATA Storage Controllers, 27C0, are from a much older chipset (Intel 945).
The desktop version of the Intel 945 chipset with the ICH7 sata controllers does not support AHCI.
What processor does your model have? The specs state it has the Pentium Dual Core E5800.

Dear Santa give me a BIOS update.

Dear Santa
All I want for christmas is a BIOS update for the KT4 Ultra 6590. That would be the best thing that could happen...Can anyone out there tell me whether it will happen?
Thank you Santa!!
Sherry and mince pies will be provided as usual.
