Latest bios for FM2-A75MA-E35?

http://us.msi.com/product/mb/FM2-A75MA-E35.html#/?div=BIOS
The two latest bios are both v21. One is dated 6/05, the other 7/25. Anyone upgraded recently? Is the 7/25 just mislabeled (i.e., should be v22)?

 Appears that the latest is just a simple update of 2.1 that didn't require a BIOS version number change - Update BIOS module. Whatever that actually means/does I don't know.

  • Issues attempting to flash 2.0 BIOS on FM2-A75MA-E35

    OK, so I'm planning to put a Richland APU into my FM2-A75MA-E35 as soon as these come out. In preparation for this, I've attempted to flash my BIOS to 2.0, which did not work.
    Some background information, I've flashed the board before without issues, up to version 1.8. The process to flash 2.0 is entirely different now, in that you need to boot from a bootable usb stick, and then run E7721V20.exe.
    This is what I did. It then went through some checks which passed fine, asked me to confirm whether I really wanted to flash the BIOS, to which I answered Y, it showed the message that it is now starting to flash the BIOS, and that's it.
    It then remained in this state for a good hour before I finally drew the conclusion that this isn't doing anything. Even though it said not to switch it off while flashing the BIOS, it seemed to be my only option. I did, and luckily, all was working as previously, running version 1.8.
    In short, the flashing program didn't actually do anything.
    I am very reluctant to make another attempt at this point in time, because I'd much rather have the board in version 1.8 for the time being, than not have it work at all.
    Is there anything I could have missed? Is there any way in which I can successfully flash my board to 2.0, so that I can later use a Richland APU in it?
    Any help with this is appreciated!

    I've done another search on the 1.8 BIOS and I can't find anything concerning Richland support. The description was just a generic "BIOS Update", whereas the 2.0 description is:
    - Update CPU ID.
    - Support Richland CPU.
    To me, it looks like you need the 2.0 BIOS for Richland Support. If anyone could point me to any sources that the 1.8 BIOS already supports Richland APUs, I'd appreciate it. For now, I'll stick to my belief that you do need 2.0, until I've got evidence to the contrary.

    Version 2.0 for FM2-A75MA-E35 like all Win8 bios versions for AMD boards currently can't be flashed with the forum tool. It's only possible by MSI's (risky) way.
    And you can't even use M-Flash, like you can for all the 1.x versions. The only way to flash 2.0 seems to be to boot into DOS from a USB stick and then run the executable supplied by MSI. Will that likely remain the only way to flash to 2.x?

    I did the update and it worked. But I have an annoying problem. When activating Cool'n'Quiet in the BIOS, it's not work on cooler. Change frequently but not speed CPU cooler. Any percentage would choose the speed cooler does not change. Cooler running at full speed.
    Well, I was going to say that at least you managed to flash your board, but having the CPU fan run at full speed irrespective of BIOS settings doesn't sound all too good either, and you can't even flash back to 1.x now, or can you?

  • Cpu-nb voltage not changing for FM2-A75MA-E35

    I have a  FM2-A75MA-E35 with a A8-5600k amd cpu and I'm trying to increase the cpu-nb voltage. According to AMD overdrive its at 1.1875 and I'm trying to increase it but any voltage I select in bios is completely ignored for some reason. I even tried with the 1.33 beta bios. How do I adjust the voltage? Do I need a special program to accurately monitor the cpu-nb voltage or is it just not adjustable?

    OK i tried the one memory stick in the first DIM everything powers on but it is not booting from the harddrive ive tried getting into the BIOS but it just goes black if i let it boot up this is what i get

  • Bios 2.1 for FM2-A75MA-E35 - Experiences?

    Has anyone upgraded to 2.1 successfully? I read here that someone is no longer able to use their USB ports at first boot since doing so with this board.
    BTW, I'm using this with an A10-6800K (v2.0 BIOS). It does recognize the CPU, even though it's not "officially" supported. But for some reason it's not running it with a x41 multiplier and instead at x39. Not sure why.  And the turbo clock of x44 never seems to kick in either even though it's properly set.
    Never used an MSI board before, so maybe I diddled something. 
    Edit: the clock was hard set to x39 for the multiplier so set it to Auto. Also turned on the the AMD Turbo Boost as that had been disabled. The latter apparently has solved some power issues as now it's not running at full voltage for no reason. Before it was maxing out all the time around 100 watts when running Handbrake. Now with the same task it's around 50-60 watts and the fans are much happier they don't have to run as hard. 

     Appears that the latest is just a simple update of 2.1 that didn't require a BIOS version number change - Update BIOS module. Whatever that actually means/does I don't know.

  • What means" WIN8 solution" in the beta BIOS of FM2-A75MA-E35?

    I updated the the BIOS and I found this option (E7721AMS.131)
    How can I use it in the best way?
    What good is it?

    If you have win 8, GOP supported (Hybrid Vbios) this will introduce Secure boot and some other nice win 8 features.
    If you don't have win 8 and a brand new vga and you don't want any headache, leave it diabled.

  • New motherboard (FM2-A75MA-E35) deliverd with Bios of other Mobo (FM-2A75IA-E53)

    I bought the FM2-A75MA-E35, i got a box with this model on and it's indeed a micro atx Mobo
    Well, i builded my New HTPC but got since i started building it i got multiple resets of the pc (just power off-on, in windows kernel power 41 error).
    After 2 days of troubleshooting, changing PSU, memory, SSD, ... I wanted to update the Bios from v2.0 to v2.1, I however got the error that my board was not supported, after looking in tools like CPU-Z i found out that my Mobo reported itself as FM-2A75IA-E53, an ITX Mobo, this also explains why I've an option in the bios for wireless and Bluetooth, which the FM-2A75IA-E53 has, but the FM2-A75MA-E35 hasn't.
    So it seems like MSI flashed the bios of another Mobo on mine in the factory? And could this explain my random reboots?
    Any suggestion other then getting it back to the shop?

    This thread can be closed. MSI USA send me a special BIOS to force flash.

  • AMD 760K doesn't work in - FM2-A75MA-E35

    Hey guys, I just got this motherboard and found out that the CPU isn't compatible with the board. I've flashed it with the latest Bios (I happened to have a Trinity CPU spare) so it's now on 2.1 and still nothing. I've tried to go to the MSI support site but when I log in and try and do anything I get prompted to update my profile and then when I do that I get some weird error page (and the same thing happens when I try to create a new account).
    I was just wondering if anyone has had similar issues with the CPU and if they have a work around or if there are any beta Bios updates etc.
    Many thanks!

    its not in the QVL list: http://www.msi.com/product/mb/FM2-A75MA-E35.html#/?div=CPUSupport
     That CPU support list only goes up to BIOS 1.5 so it's out of date as of  Dec. 2012 and doesn't show any Richland being supported even though 2.0-2.1 BIOS supports Richland CPU's.
     It could be that since that CPU was only released last month that it will need a more recent BIOS update for support. You would need to contact MSI regarding that though as us folks here in the forum really wouldn't know for sure at this time.

  • [SOLVED] FM2-A75MA-E35 A10-5800K no Max Turbo

    Hello, I have a MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 motherboard with the 1.41 Beta Bios & AMD A10-5800K with DDR3 1600Mhz & Windows 8 Pro. I did the factory reset by hitting F6 to go back to stock bios, now when I put Intel XMP enable on then save the setting. when I boot into Windows 8 Pro the A10-5800K show the processor 3.80ghz as Max Speed which is normal, when I encode a video it run at 3.95ghz but not at 4.2ghz. all I did in the setting is enable Intel XMP & that it. I have not touch anything else, Max Turbo is in auto. 

      Thanks for reporting back!

  • M-Flash, FM2-A75MA-E35, System is not reboot or taking long time

    Hi,
    I have FM2-A75MA-E35 with A10-5700.
    Several days ago, I downloaded a ZIP file of BIOS version 1.7 from MSI. After extracted, it was the same version 1.5 (.150 extension), but with older version of .EXE compared to my previous BIOS version 1.5 download.
    After the flash screen ended, the system was not reboot almost right away like my previous 1.5 flashed, but with blank screen, fan running fully speed, and both HDD LED and Power LED lite up.   About a minute late, I pressed Power with not respond then Reset also with no respond.  Several seconds later, the system rebooted and Windows loaded.  Later, I flashed the system back to previous 1.5 and everything seemed to be OK.  Yesterday, I checked MSI site and saw that the actual 1.7 BIOS is up, I am thinking about flashing again. 
    Here are my questions:   
    What is going on after the flash screen ended?
    Is it save to 1) press power or 2) reset button or 3) pull the plug after the flash screen ended, If the system is not reboot or responding for about a minute?

    I flashed it the same way that I did with the early weird 1.7 version and it was working.
    After flash progress bar completed, it took about less than 5 seconds, the system rebooted twice with all the LEDs turn on and off and windows loaded.  I rebooted and went into the BIOS which shown version 1.7. 
    The scary thing was when I was in the BIOS setting the clock, the screen went blank for about a second once and sometime blinking , and it seemed to do that on the clock setting screen, not the main screen.  I think this might related to graphic buffering and programing. 
    I hope this is normal for this UEFI BIOS and not turns into a brick. 
    Please, let me known that if you think this is normal or not.
    Thanks,

  • FM2-A75MA-E35 - Weird overlapping on screen.

    Heya!
    Today I helped a friend put together a HTPC with the following bits and pieces:
    Case - Silverstone Grandia GD05B
    MB - FM2-A75MA-E35
    CPU - AMD A-Series A10-5700
    CPU Fan - Scythe Big Shuriken 2
    RAM - G.SKILL Ares 8GB (2 x 4GB) 1866 Mhz
    SSD - Samsung 830 Series 64GB
    PSU - Be-Quiet Pure Power L7 300W
    The problem at first was we didnt get any picture with HDMI on the TV, 65" Panasonic, just scrambled colors and I guess that usually indicates something wrong with the graphics. I then tried it on his old 50" TV and there I got picture but it looked weird and overlapped. Hard to explain but it looked like the picture started ~25% into the screen and then the wrapping around so the first 25% of the screen had the bit that should have been to the far right, if you get what I mean. Then I went with VGA and it looked good and normal so I installed Win 7 including the new drivers for the chipset/gfx. Then went back to HDMI and tried it again on the 65" and now I got a normal picture once in Windows. Although BIOS is still weird with the picture continuing outside of the screen. I'll post a picture and ask if anyone have any clue if this if fixable?
    Oh and I almost forgot. If I connect it to my computer monitor with HDMI, or DVI I get a normal picture in bios, and ofc in Windows. Dont know what to make of that

    I had a similar issue with my VGA panels (at first a 1280x1024 and then the 1920x1080). I hit the auto button on the panel and it adjusted the image to fit the screen more or less well.
    Check your TV manual or menu to see if there is an auto-adjust to correct the image. If you are overclocking the bus(from 100MHz to 105MHz or higher), it may affect the output of the GPU and thus distort the image/output.

  • FM2-A75MA-E35 with A10-5700, CPU temperature at 85c!!! Is this normal?

    I just put together the system, see below (no overclocking), and using AMD Overdrive for stability test with CPUID software to monitor temperature:
    FM2-A75MA-E35
    A10-5700 Boxed using stock fan
    Patriot signature DDR3 8G 1333mhz 
    1T WD Greennnn..........
    At room temperature about 25c
    1. In BIOS, temperature after boot up jumps quickly from 25c to idle at 58c and the fan spinning at about 3200 RPM. It sounds like a small refrigerator.
    2. Idle in Windows 7, CPUID displays CPU temp at 42c.
    3. Stability test using AMD Overdrive with all components selected, CPU temp shoots up to MAX at 85c!!!!! average about 75c!
    I found out that A10-5700 maximum temperature is 71c.  I double check everything (connections and fan) and update the BIOS then run it again, the same results show up. 
    Is there anything wrong?

    Thanks Joe and wlahdone,
    I am currently waiting for the new A10-5700 CPU. 
    Have you try the last BIOS version 1.7 (1/29/2013) with Update CPU AGESA code?
    I also had BIOS problem. 
    BIOS version that come with the board, It hung when I try to save changes and exit. This issue has been reported by another user.
    BIOS version 1.5, Solved the save changes problem.
    *Both versions have the same funny temperature reading.
    I don't want to spend much time with this, I only need a simple PC or two, just driving to the PC store gas cost a lot of money these days.
    I had the same issues when i ve bought it - the freezing at save.
    It seems the board comes with BIOS 1.2 which is bugged ,it simply takes the OC settings at the first boot and overclocks the FSB ,this giving the freezing most probable.
    Clearing CMOS or pressing F6 and then F10 in BIOS solves the problem.
    I am on BIOS 1.5 and it s ok.
    The HW Monitor reports the 0 Celsius for the onboard video ,but i really don t care.
    I ve thrown at it Windows XP ,Windows 7 ,Open SUSE 12 ,Linux Mint and Simply Mepis.
    They all worked fine in spite of the little 5300 APU that i use for this HTPC , it runs everything
    I ve made myself a toy that plays 1080p and routes in same time ,a pleasure to see it in action
    After AMD releases the new APU-s ill switch from a AM3+ rig to one of these.
    The board BIOS reports nice temps if you use a proper cooler.

  • FM2-A75MA-E35 & RAM Clocking issue

    Heres my system specs
    Mobo: FM2-A75MA-E35
    CPU: A8 5600k (Max RAM support 1866Mhz)
    Ram: GSkill RipJaws DDR3-1600 PC3-12800 & Corsair XMS3 PC3-12800
    I notice in the Bios that the ram is only being detected @ DDR3-1333,  I enabled overclocking to DDR3-1600 but even then the ram is still only clocked @1333 both in Bios and in windows.  Is this a known issue with this board?

    Nice discussion about this vga but what has this to do with the ram. This is a MSI forum and not meant for discussing Sapphire vgas.
    That it is!
    Quote
    The person I am building the system for isnt really using teh system for gaming,  more video editing.
    Install a larger GB factory matched and tested RAM kit if that is the intended use of the pc, RAM performance difference between 1333 and 1600 is rather low anyway.

    The new FM2 APu setups do support XMP.
    I wonder what Intel will have to say about that?

  • FM2-A75MA-E35 & 2133Mhz RAM

    Hi guys,  reading the spec data of the FM2-A75MA-E35 mainboard, i can see:
    Supports two unbuffered DIMM of 1.5 Volt DDR3 1066/1333/1600/1866/2133*(OC) DRAM, 32GB Max
    If i buy a kit of 2133Mhz RAM, can i set this frequency in the BIOS? Or better, does exists in the BIOS the "2133Mhz" setting field?
    Thank you

    Quote from: caml light on 03-November-12, 08:50:56
    Not correct! The graphic section of AMD APU's take a nice performance boost with 1600+Mhz RAM, as you can see here:
    http://hexus.net/tech/reviews/cpu/46073-amd-a10-5800k-trinity-needs-faster-ram/
    So, do you confirm that this mainboard has a FSB/DRAM ratio to set RAM at 2133Mhz keeping the CPU at stock speed?
    Thank you!
    The mainboard pdf manual 7721v1.0 shows that a 'DRAM Frequency' setting is in the BIOS. The specs say it supports up to 2133 OC'd RAM speed, so presume the 2133 setting is available. Also, 2133 is not guaranteed as the CPU's IMC may not be able to handle or support it. In that review, if I read it right, they OC'd the GPU as well as the RAM in those tests. Do some tests for yourself at 1866, and at 2133 if they will run at that. In a real world application, I doubt seriously any actual visual difference will be noticeable. 
    Unless someone chimes in that has this mainboard to confirm the 2133 setting or not, recommend to contact MSI Technical and ask them.

  • FM2-A75MA-E35, Less Usable Memory than installed....

    I just powered up my new FM2-A75MA-E35 Mainboard with A6-5400K and 4G memory stick.  Running Win 7 Ult 64.
    When I used on board video, I had 3g out of 4G available.  I assume the missing 1G was reserved for video use.
    So I put in my ATI Radeon HD 5670 video card hoping that disabling the onboard video and using plugin video card memory would free up the missing 1G of ram.
    Instead, now I have 2.9G out of 4G available.
    Any help or guidance is appreciated.

    F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL if i'm not mistaken are G-Skill Ripjaws (they are known to be very problematic on MSI boards Due to a DEAL with a brand-X) try some different RAM and i would suggest some from Corsair of 1.5v instead!
    at most the board will dedicate with 8GB installed 2-2.5GB to the IGPU max (1.5GB if only running 4GB at the most) so it sounds more like a incompatibility due to the poor choice you have made when you bought the RAM!
    if its no incompatibility then you have some VERY FAULTY RAM so its either a incompatibility or very BAD ram involved here.... i suggest you get some different ram from one of these 2 Manufacturers (Corsair & Crucial) as G-Skill cant be trusted on a MSI board as they have a very bad rep and in particular the RIPJAW skew they make!
