Live Update GOOD or BAD

just wondered if the live update is reliable and if so should i update bios ?? i read here about not too be trusted
i am running my system on standard settings  bios ver 1.8 and all original drivers off the supplied cd
todate have not had any problems have resisted the updates due too the issue mentioned above i can't afford too screw up my board
however i do have a saying if it ain't broke don't fix it and normally follow that rule so i guess their is no real need to update
your thoughts and views would be welcome  have a good day all

thanks for the swift reply Xmad
i will stay put as i say have had no problems from the new system build  {touch wood
                                                                                       Thanks Again

  • Rezound OTA update, good or bad?

    Still no Rezound forum, huh?
    Well, I noticed a decreased in overall performance in my device after the update, but it was still very usable and a great device, but disappointed in the decrease in download speeds, battery life and STILL seeing the issue with my time switching back and forth between Pacific and Mountain time...I believe the time zones will sync before that is fixed lol.
    Anyway, so I was sent a replacement and activated it last night and noticed immediately it had the previous software on it, which is good, because the battery life and speeds seem to be where they once were after about 4 hours of use...but there is an issue with the ear piece, the speaker seems to be blown (static and muffling) so I had to pack it up and send it back for another. I activated the phone with the new software afterwards (within minutes and in the same area) and notice the downloads speeds were back down to about 2-4 down and topped out at 1 up (the replacement, both exceeded 10) I am in Phoenix,AZ where 4G is all over.
    I am hoping the next replacement has not been flashed w/ the new update so I can ignore it if it happens to come up. I know its recommended by VZW that all phones have the latest software, but after seeing first hand what the update does to the speed and battery, is it really worth it? Could it be that my device was bad all along despite it working perfectly prior to the update? I did perform factory resets and kept 3rd party apps very minimal but no difference. Is this "Verizon Location Agent" really to blame for the battery life? I fear receiving the next replacement and it working fine, then the update comes along and ruins the phone again...I doubt that is enough ground to request another replacement.
    What to do, what to do!

    I've been lucky with my TBolt and Rezound. I haven't had all of the problems others have except for the network problem with the Bolt. Since I still have it, I've been tempted to root it just to experiment, but the Rezound has been so great that I just haven't been in a hurry to do it. My speeds with the Rezound after the update are about the same as before. They go up and down, depending on when I check it and what server I connect to. I'd love to get the 20's and 30's some report, but my best is about 16Mbps and this morning I'm getting 4 to 7Mbps.
    I don't usually see that much difference in how fast it connects to web sites, maybe because I don't check the speed when I'm surfing, if it connects I'm happy.  It also seems to slow down when I tether to my laptop, but I seldom check it then either. Having a stable connection that doesn't drop out and need to be restarted every 5 to 10 minutes is more important to me than what the speed is.  Even at it's slowest, it's still faster than the non-existent WiFi we have at work.
    Hope your next one works better. If it doesn't keep bugging them till you get one that does.

  • IPod updater-good or bad?

    Hello
    I have read that some people, when they downloaded the updater, gave their ipod trouble....did it happen oanyone? and second: when you download it, you put in my documents, but then how does it get in your ipod?
    Chris

    You gotta double click and install it first, but unless you want to, i wouldn't update. Too many problems.

  • Lumia 822-Denim update, good or bad?

    I downloaded the long awaited windows 8.1 to my lumia 822 this morning but found that it has taken away my ability to take, view, and send pictures. I'm guessing that this is a bug but I'm not sure. Has anyone else had better luck?Lu

    I had the same issue. Along with some other oddities that showed up. I know that it is not what most people want to hear, but I ended up having to reset the phone back to factory and rebuilding it from the ground up. I did not let it restore any of my previous settings. (It may have been fine, but I didn't want to take the risk)
    This is work, but remember you are loading a new OS onto a device that was out before the OS was so there may be some work and tweaking that needs to be done to make it work.

  • Updated bios via Live Update and now my Network card isn't detected

    I have an msi Z87-GD65 Gaming Motherboard and I updated some drivers and the bios via msi Live Update 6 last night and now my computer refuses to recognize my network adapter. The adapter is a TRENDnet N600, plugs into PCIe if I'm not mistaken. Wifi if my only option with this computer, I can't use ethernet, so it's really important I get the network card working again. I have had zero issues with it until this.
    The reason I was updating was to try to get my third monitor to work when plugged into the mobo, while my other two were plugged into the graphics card (which I also installed yesterday, but it's working fine). Note that it still was not working, but I had enabled the IGD Multi-Monitor from bios.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated. I did try uninstalling the drivers but it still won't detect the network card. I also tried disconnecting and reconnecting the network card (and I cleaned the port for good measure).
    I've only been using Windows computers for a year, so bear with me if there's stuff I don't know. Thanks in advance. I can try to get a full list of what was installed later tonight, but all of it that I can find has been uninstalled at this point.
    Note: I did not flash the bios when I installed, which I have now heard is a bad idea, apparently. l:

  • Manually and quickly updating smart playlists with 'Live Updating' off?

    Hi,
    I have a quite large music library (13,000 songs) and use a multitude of nested smart playlists that change often because I don't want to listen to the same song every day and I want to listen to good songs more often than bad songs. I'm also splitting up by genre, because not all my friends appreciate all of my musical tastes, and I myself am not always in the mood for every genre.
    The consequence of this is that from time to time, iTunes stutters when playing a new song, presumably because it's updating all the smart playlists when the previous song ended.
    Now, I had hoped that turning 'Live Updating' off would cause iTunes to update the smart playlists at startup instead of updating continuously. However, it turns out that though the performance improved dramatically, turning off 'Live Updating' caused the smart playlists to never update. Obviously I don't want that, since that means all my smart playlists are static.
    Is there a way to have both good performance and easy updating of the playlists? There are a bit too many playlists to manually update very day by forcing iTunes to update the playlist.
    An 'Update all smart playlists now' button or a 'Update all smart playlists at startup' feature would be nice...
    Any hints, tips, help, suggestions?
    Thank you so much.
    Greetings,

    Using the SDK, you (well, I) would do something like this:
    1. Get a list of all the playlists in the iTunes Library.
    2. For each playlist, test if playlist is a Smart playlist (Playlist->Smart() returns a boolean)
    2a. If it is a smart playlist, select it by setting a property value for the BrowserWindow object (basically BrowserWindow->SelectedPlaylist(playlist object)) (for example perl code, see http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.perl.misc/browse_thread/thread/1248563d 743795d8/be1a88fc6eeab0e4?lnk=gst&q=itunesperlselectedplaylist&rnum=1#be1a88fc6eeab0e4)
    2b. Using keystrokes (Alt-F,G), select "File..Get Info". Then keystroke Alt-U to toggle live updating, then Enter to click OK.
    2c. Repeat above, which should toggle live updating off again. (unfortunately there is no way to be sure whether the starting state was off or on -- I'm assuming it will always be off)

  • Norton Anti-virus-Unable to Live Update (Virus Def) Error/Java 1.4.2

    Hello all.
    I have Norton Anti-virus 10.1.1 running on my iMac, Live Update has always been set on "auto" scheduling.
    Until these few days, I have difficulties Live Updating the latest virus definition, I will get this error message window:
    Updating Error
    There was an error performing the update (OK button)
    I emailed Symantec and got a reply, saying the problem could be due to Java 1.4.2, they ask me to re-install Java 1.4.2
    However, a check at Apple's Download site reveals no single stand-alone Java 1.4.2 installer, only updates. Is Java 1.4.2 part of the current OS or was from previous OS?
    Anyway when I tried downloading the Java 1.4.2 Update, my iMac refuses, in the installer it says:
    You cannot install Java 1.4.2 Update 1 Package on this volume. This volume does not contain a version of Java that needs updating.
    So if Java is the problem like what Symantec Support points out, how can I re-install Java 1.4.2?
    Thanks and cheers

    1. You wrote: "Also, to the previos post, I trashed all the Java receipts and still unable to (re)install Java 1.3.1 and 1.4.2 Release 2, I think the console results say it all, I have Java ver. 1.5, right?"If you see the same output as I provided, then you should have the same version: that should be obvious.
    Don't touch anything in the Receipts directory unless you know what you're doing.
    2. You wrote: "Dr. Smoke, not exactly sure how to go from here where you point to the URL, about checking the console messages/logs for Live Update? Can you help provide some pointers."The instructions I provided earlier, as well as my FAQ, are self-evident. You should not need any additional pointers. Re-read my instructions then re-read my FAQ.
    Paraphrasnig what I wrote earlier: If you see the Live Update error again, check the ends of the logs cited in my "Checking Console for clues" FAQ for any messages related to LiveUpdate problems, e.g. messages citing LiveUpdate that were written to the ends of the logs I cite in my FAQ at the time the problem occurred. If you check immediately after the problem occurs, the messages — if any — would be at the end of the log.
    What could be clearer than that?
    3. I suspect the Java 1.4.2 info you were given earlier by Symantec was a red herring, i.e. a false lead. Console-related messages as noted in point 2 above would be helpful.
    4. You might want to perform a general checkup for some common troublemakers: run the Procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
    5. Likewise, following the Symantec advice to download the virus defs once and then trying again in a week or so isn't a bad idea.
    Good luck!

  • MSI Live Update problem....

    So i downloaded/installed the Live Update v3.61 and decided to try it out.  I changed the default option to  only show new versions of files.  It keeps telling me i've only got v4.08 of the Nvidia nForce3 System Drivers, when i've downloaded v5.03 from the website and installed them (twice now actually).  what's the deal?   anyone else have a similar issue?  I've tried getting it with live update, but it crawls along at 2-3KB/sec, so screw that.
    Just noticed as well that the "Live Update" button changes fron green to yellow when i try to update...
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance!

    WOW, this amazes me. This was the first time I have ever built a computer, so i tried to find a board with the performance I wanted and features such as LiveUpdate to make it easy to maintanence.
    Anyways, Everything other than the temp readings in corecell went very smoothly from day 1. I have flashed my system bios twice with Live update and that fixed my temps, the driver, the nvidia driver, and a utility, and never have I had a bad experience with speed or bad flashing. I have never flashed bios with a boot disc and will continue to use the LiveUpdate feature. Im sorry that you guys are having troubles with it, because I think its the best thing around. And Im seriously shocked to have read this. I thought it worked for everyone.
    If other people have good experiences with it, let me know, I cant be the only one.
    I seriously think LiveUpdate is one of the best features of the board.

  • Live Update questions

    I have a K8NGM2-FID board, GeForce 6150/6000.  MSI Live Update 3 has been downloading and installing updates once a week on schedule for quite some time, but in the past two tries has crashed on the installation end.  I'm not sure why, but it could possibly be me opening an application or web page during the process.  Just to be sure, I uninstalled LU and reinstalled the latest version of 3.  I have three questions:
    1) I can't figure out how to schedule it, as I had in the past.  How's that done? 
    2) While running Live Update from the tray icon, downloads seem to happen but then instead of installing I get the MSI Live Search Results and have to install everything manually.  Where's the auto installation option now? 
    3) Under VGA Video driver updates - mine is 8205 - the first list for 9131 includes GeForce some Nvidia 6200 versions, but no 6100.  Should I skip those?
    Thanks.

    Genegold, it's useless to update drivers when your system runs fine. Newer drivers are NOT always better ones.
    There are two options:
    2. install the drivers that came with your motherboard and stick to those if you don't have any problems running your pc. If you do run into trouble AFTER installing the drivers that came with the board, get help here. Leave LiveUpdate where it is; on the CD. You will only spoil your Windows using it, since it updates drivers when you don't need updates.
    Remember: an older driver isn't a bad driver. Newer drivers are only published to support new hardware or to solve some compatibility problems between the driver and some other piece of software. If you don't experience any trouble, it's no use updating.
    If you go back to the original post, after roughly a year of successful experience with MSI's Live Update running weekly on a set schedule, I was having a problem on the installation side and had some questions about getting it working again.  Richard steered me in an entirely different direction, but without any explanation as to why or sufficient details to carry through, even on prompting.  For example, I expected an overwrite or the installer to uninstall the previous version as needed, but the instructions I saw during the installation process for Nvidia's drivers tell the user to do the uninstall.  Fine, however it's not clear exactly what to uninstall or where to find it (there's only a generic "Nvidia drivers" listed in Add/Remove Programs).  Perhaps that wasn't a minor issue in terms of the results I got.
    Looking at my MSI folders, they also contain similarly-named nVidia drivers (earlier version numbers). What are the differences between those and what comes from the nVidia site?  In any case, if I can't get an internet connection after installing the latter (Richard's links), then there's no way to get help here without repeated trips to another computer (library, work).  I've received very good help on these forums and perhaps with greater guidance Richard would be too.   

  • MSI Live Update Installation Causes Windows XP To CRASH!!

    I have a MSI K9VGM-V (MS-7253). Product specs are here: http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=K9VGM-V
    I have attempted to obtain my updates for my drivers and utilities. MSI uses the Live Update to detect and suggest these for your system. However, I cannot get the software to install to my PC. I have tried to do in through the website AND by downloading it and running it off the hard drive. Each time it gets into the install process and during it - (Boom) - My PC Reboots. When Windows XP (Home Edition) boots up, it says "Windows has just recovered from a serious error." It goes through the reporting to Microsoft process and takes you to their website where it says "You have received a blue screen error. Unfortunatly we were unable to detect what caused this." Then goes on to suggest to restore your files or restore to an earlier state if your system has become unstable (blah blah). Now I really didn't ACTAULLY see a blue screen, the PC just rebooted. I am aware of the blue screen of death and all that. I understand the concept. But I don't know what could be wrong. My system is very basic with little upgrading from me. I have installed all the Windows Critical Updates, so I am now running Windows Service Pack 3. Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be the problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I tell you that.
    NOTE: And the following might not have anything to do with my problem but I noticed on MSI's web site, located at this URL: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=utility&maincat_no=1&prod_no=260
    they say give a warning about MSI Live Update when installing it to my PC/Board. Look under the MSI Live Update Utility at the "Notes." It says:
    "For K9VGM-V (MS-7253) mainboard, please do not select the DMI optopn.
    Now I don't know what DMI means except maybe "Definition Multimedia Interface." And I don't get the chance to select any option during the process. If I do, the process hasn't made it that far before my PC crashes, and re-boots. Please, anybody got anything on this? Thank you.

    Thank you so much. I just want to say I really appreciate when people do take the time to post me in return. So I really mean it, Thank You.
    A quick question. You see, I have been upgrading my computer. I installed a Belkin USB USB Card (high speed 2.0) cause I needed more USB ports. Then I checked for compatable RAM and upgraded my RAM from 512MB to 2Gigs. Everything alright.
    Now, I have checked for processors that are compatable with my board K9VGM-V (MS-7253). And MSI's chart says mine is compatable with the AMD Athlon 2x 6000 (3.0Ghz) *IF* I use the 89 watt and not the 125 watt. Here is a good URL for the processor details I found:
    http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K8/AMD-Athlon%2064%20X2%206000+%20-%20ADA6000IAA6CZ%20(ADA6000CZBOX).html
    Now do you have any tips and I will probably have to flash to BIOS for sure after this upgrade won't I?

    I wanted to have the SSDs in RAID0 with Win7 and the games on it, then a volume on the 2TB that the RAID backs up to, with the remaining 1.5TB just free storage space in another volume.  I couldn't get raid past Win7's Where Do You Want To Install screen during installation, so I ended up installing the OS on just one SSD.  I figured I'd backup the functioning OS to the 2TB then rebuild the RAID array and copy the OS back onto it.
    The system had been up an running for a full day, being updated left and right nonstop, several big games put in, etc etc, everything was running fine until I decided to run MSI Live Update and started pumping in updates.  Constant errors as I went along, but generally it'd just skip to the next installation attempt.  When it got down to updating the BIOS and did it's DOS injection thing, it for forcefully shut down the PC, restarted, did Post, flashed the BIOS wallpaper, restarted again, Posted, no BIOS wallpaper, just endless "Missing Operating System".  Walked away, went to bed, back up and at it for a few minutes (Will be back tonight for however long it takes to get it fixed).  I switched the BIOS switch over, no dice.  Feels like it's a BIOS "OS" that's gone, and that a BIOS reset/flash is in order or something, but I've never done these things.
    Thanks in advance for any rendered assistance that leads to resolution.

    The SSDs are definitely hooked up where they're supposed to go; the motherboard had a little sticker n' everything for where the two SSD dedicated SATA 6.0gbps ports were :P  AND my case has 2 specific slots for SSDs which don't use the hotswap electronics PCB passthrough like the other 4 bays, which is where the 2T is installed.  I was going to take the 2TB out and hook it up normally and see if that changed the speeds, but I'm leaning towards wishful thinking.  Did I mention I went and made several volumes with different file cluster sizes to test and see if that was the issue?  Alas, all were borked.  It still confuses me though because every once n' awhile it'd do massive burst speeds the way it's supposed to.
    As far as I can recall I'm using up to date BIOS, the last one or two.  One BIOS switch is set for the last BIOS, the other switch is a step back devoid of the Windows 8 stuff.  I believe I have all the drivers up to date as well.  Intel 335's are literally brand new, mine hadn't been more than 3 weeks old off the production line when I received them; IE, they should pretty much have the latest firmware on them which spares me the risk of destroying something precious 
    I MIGHT have a SATA external enclosure around here somewhere, if so, the 2TB could go in that for additional testing until I figure out where it's sustaining speeds of 2-10MB vs 100-150MB/second.
    Meanwhile, the good news is that the system has been fully operational and hella stable.  I hadn't slept in almost 3 days, playing and installing stuff nonstop.  The system continues to run cooler (32c@stock CPU speed) as the thermal paste sets in, the knocking sound of the fan in the PSU has gone away upon me reawakening a bit ago, and amazingly, this massive system (with EIGHT fans) draws only 60-65 watts while desktopping.  That's just astounding 

  • Not to update Goods receipt on process order in LIMS system

    Dear all,
    I am working on SAP-LIMS interface project.
    Please help me out with the below requriement:
    Release of process order (COR1) in SAP creates lot creation in LIMS (creates an inspection lot in QIWL table which is read by LIMS system to download data from SAP to LIMS).
    When we do goods receipt (MB31) against the process order, currently it updates same inspection lot in QIWL table to send the same record for LIMS system again.
    We have a requirement not to update on Goods Receipt to LIMS system.
    Please let me know if there are any user-exits/BADIs for the same.
    I know that goods receipt MB31 runs the FM MB_POST_DOCUMENT in background.
    Please let me know if somebody has worked on this requirement.
    P.S. - We need the functionality of updating goods receipt on purchase order in LIMS.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    If you post GR in Plant - A, then the stocks in the warehouse will reflect for Plant - A & not in Plant - B.
    Although the warehouse is the same, it is linked to the combination of Plant & Storage location. You can check the warehouse stocks using LS26, just specify the warehouse number & material number.
    But there is also a concept of planning plant & production plant, so Plant A can be where the planning takes place, while Plant B is where the actual production takes place. In this case, although you produce in Plant B, the GR will be done in Plant A.
    Hope the above clarifies.
    Regards,
    Vivek

  • Live Update, Is it me...?

    Hello, the newbie using MSI boards back again. I am wondering if there is something up with the Live Update Site or it something on my end. I have gone to the Live Update site at least 30 times within the last several days and can't seem to get anything downloaded.
    The downloads get one-quarter to halfway done and just stop as if thier server is busy or...? I am mainly concerned with the BIOS update for my board.
    I have one small issue I need to finger out. I was going to throw this thing back were I got it from. Even after solving my hard drive woes.
    I originally had my Audigy card in the 2nd PCI slot below the AGP card. The Audigy would work half the time and the computer would just freeze or just sit in la, la land. I'd have to kill the power and reboot.
    Anyway, I cannot use my USB scanner on any of the USB ports. It is Win XP compat and I have cert. drivers. It worked great on the ASUS.
    I changed the Audigy to the bottom PCI slot. So far she don't lock or go to la, la land and the sound works all the time so far.
    Anything, I don't know that someone could shed some light on? I have had two good days so far and the board seems pretty stable with the exception of the USB scanner.

    I am having the same problem.  I can't get anything downloaded with Live Update.  The download freezes all the time.
    I have noticed that you are using Win XP.  Does your board come with USB2 ?  If so, go check to see if the usb driver is installed or not? If not, install it.  It is included in WinXP service pack.  WinXp and it's service pack installations won't install it for you automatically, u have to go to Device Manager to install it yourself.  Once you are in Device Manager, you'll probably see an exclamation mark next to some device( it's probably your usb controller), right click on it and then choose Update driver or Install driver (don't remember), then choose "Install the software automatically".  It will take 1 - 2 minutes for the process to search and install the usb drivers for u.  The usb driver installation instruction for WinXP is available in Microsoft's knowledge base in its homepage. Go search for ""usb  winxp""
