M93p BIOS reset wehn flashed

Everytime we update the BIOS on any of our M93p desktop the BIOS resets to default. I looked at the BIOS utilities and can't find a way to flash and keep settings at the same time. I've tried to capture, flash and restore and get a message that one of the setting is invailed. Please help.

How are you installing the BIOS update? Are you using the bootable media or the version that runs from within the OS? If the latter, are you running "flash.cmd" or doing something else? There could have been a change between BIOS versions that is causing the issue. If the settings are the same between machines in your environment, can you capture the settings from a machine that has already been upgraded and restore those settings to the newly upgraded machines?

Help Needed - Step by Step Procedure CMOS / BIOS Reset (MSI GX600)

Hi guys,
I gave my old MSI GX600 laptop to my parents (after I got married) the catch is... they had some virus problems with the laptop (after a few months) and had a technician (just a guy manning a cyber cafe) check the laptop. When they got the laptop back it now has a BIOS password... to make matters worse... the guy gave the wrong password for the BIOS... and insists that - that's the password. (the guy didn't have any rights placing a BIOS password - it's not his laptop to begin with).
So basically we can't boot to Windows since when you turn-on the laptop the first thing you see is the BIOS login. They contacted me to try and resolve the situation. I thought that the best way to reset it to factory default... so I went on the net and looked for ways to do the BIOS reset (factory default) and so far everything I tried still resulted to not having it reset back to faculty default. The BIOS login is still there.
Below are the things I did... any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated.
1. Uplugged the Laptop
2. Removed the batteries
3. Removed bottom panel
4. Un-attach Internal Battery connector to the mainboard (have no idea how to short it... since there are videos on shorting the board [but that's for MSI motherboards and not for laptops])
5. Left it for a few minutes
6. Connected everything again
7. Re-booted the laptop
Anyhow, it still asks for the BIOS login. I even went to the extent of removing all the connectors I can see on the board. But still to no avail. Anyhow, I have no idea what the guy (technician) did to the laptop but it still continues to ask for the BIOS password. Any help regarding this matter... the proper way or procedure of doing it would be greatly appreciated. I just need to remove the BIOS password requirement that is now implemented on the laptop.
Thanks in advanced!

MSI 770T-C45 won't post after flashing BIOS with M-FLASH

After flashing AMIBIOS 8.3 to v8.7 with M-FLASH via USB stick I can't get any post.
Had I read this forum before I wouldn't have done it, but here I am.
Fan starts, LEDs are off, no beeps at all, power button does nothing. Black screen.
After force flashing (yes, I am THAT stupid) the prompt said it would reboot in 5 seconds and after that nothing.
Here's my setup:
Board: MSI 770T-C45
Original Bios: v8.3
Flashed Bios: v8.7 (flashed with M-FLASH)
VGA: EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660
PSU: Enermax FMAII EG465AX-VE 460W
CPU: AMD Phenom x4 9650
MEM: Kingston DDR2-667 4x2GB KVR667D2N5/2G
HDD: SAMSUNG 840 SSD 250GB
OS: Windows 8 Pro 64bit
I tried every CMOS clearing method found in previous posts and threads (including this and this.)
1. Unplugged from power, waited 5 minutes, removed the battery (5mins), changed jumper position (5min), switched it back (5min), plugged it in (5min) and powered up with and without USB stick in the hub next to network hub with old BIOS (v8.3) inside. Pressed CTRL+HOME, anything, not a single message or beep or LED flashing.
Also I removed all RAMs and kept one in the first socket. Nothing.
I really don't know what to do next. What seems to differ from other users is LEDs non working, what does that mean?

The problem here is that after update 8.6 the m-flash module was updated, so yes your mobo is a brick, but there is still hope for it. I had the same situation a few days ago with the exact same model and was able to recover it by following the steps on listed on the below posts:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=133578.0
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=129989.0
It may seem complicated at first, but trust me its not at all.
Anyways you probably already have another mobo, send it for RMA or used it as frisbee, but it may come handy for some other doing the same noob flashing as we did

Making a button to reset a flash file

Is it possible to make some kind of clickable object that resets a flash file? Say you're in a game and your character gets killed. By clicking on a button you you're taken back to the start of the flash file and all the variable reset to their starting positions. Basically I just want to make a button that reloads the flash file the same as hitting the reload button on your browser (except that it just reloads the flash file and not the entire web page).

you can use:
yourbutton.onRelease=function(){
loadMovieNum("thisswf.swf",0);

P6N Platinum Bios Resetting on Boot

Hi all,
I've got a P6N Platinum that the bios resets on almost every day.
-I turn the PC off each night (start - shutdown - from windows)
-When I turn it on in the morning (pressing the power button) it lights up, but I get no video.
-All four lights are green on the D bracket.
-If I press and hold the power button until it turns off, the turn it back on, the same thing happens.
-If I just press the reset button, it boots with the bios reset. I have to go in and set the time and disable the onboard audio (since I have an X-Fi). And any other settings I've tweaked are gone (I've only changed memory timings - but it runs ok on auto).
-Once I reset the bios it works fine the rest of the day - even if I reboot it or power it off and back on.
-I'm not overclocking or doing SLI
Sounds like a battery problem, but it's connected to AC all of the time.
System Specs:
Core2Duo E6600
EVGA 8800 GTX KO
2 GB Corsair RAM
Creative X-FI
300 GB Seagate SATA drive (boot)
Lite-On DVD Drive (IDE)
Vista Ultimate 32 bit.
Antec Sonata case with SmartPower2 450W PS.
All new.
Thanks,
Sweeps

If the system locks up or crashes once fully booted into the O/S, and will not re-boot on subsequent attempts, it should reset BIOS to "Optimized Defaults", telling you, "Warning!!! The previous performance of overclocking has failed... Please press any key to continue...". Afterwhich, it will boot with the default settings.
If, instead, it successfully re-boots within three attempts of the three-finger-salute boot after the lock-up, it should maintain the user selected BIOS settings.
That's normal.
I am beginning to think MSI has come up with a "learning" or "self-healing" BIOS. What few little annoying problems I've had are slowly disappearing, one boot at a time.
When you are playing Lord of the Rings do you get physical; shaking or striking your desk or computer? Could be loose wires. I know my truck acts like that at times.
I see that message in the manual, but I have never received it. It's never taken three attempts - just one. And, the problem occurs after a normal shutdown. (but so far only after the game has crashed).
I've been known to turn my keyboard into popcorn before, but not with this system!! - YET!

mainboard S/N is MS-7597 VER 1.1
That's not the S/N. You can find the S/N on a white sticker on the box or on the back of the board:

Bios reset with a wireless keyboard

my all in one was upluged from the wall while it was in sleep mode, it came with a wireless keyboard and mouse, it never turned back on and a bios reset was suggested, it did not work with the wireless keyboard and mouse. i plugged a non h.p. keyboard in and still nothing, is a h.p. keyboard required to make this reset? any other suggestions?

Is the computer running when you boot and do you hear the fans working?
The other keyboard you used, is it a USB keyboard.
Please mark my post as SOLVED if it has resolved your problem. It helps others with similar situations.

NEED BIOS BACKDOOR PASSWORD FOR HP PROBOOK 6540b. Have tried all types of bios resets, no luck.

NEED BIOS BACKDOOR PASSWORD FOR HP LAPTOP PROBOOK 6540b. Have tried all types of bios resets, doesn't work.
The password stay's no error code for entering wrong ones.

Hi,
I too have been pulling my hair out with this problem on the 6540B. However after 2 days of various driver combinations I've finally found a working fix. I don't have the luxury of reinstalling Windows XP as the machine is custom configured with apps which will take over a week to configure again.
If you've got no audio it's probably because you've installed the IDT High Def Audio Driver. You may have tried a whole bunch of other options also to try and rectify the problem as I did.
The solution is fairly simple:
Goto to add/remove programs and remove "SoundMax".
Reboot
The audio driver may try to reinstall on boot up... allow it to install. It will still not work and will still show exclamation mark against IDT driver in Device Manager.
Goto run... then type regedit and hit enter. Windows registry opens.
Goto My Computer>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SYSTEM>CurrentControlSet>Services>
Delete the WHOLE KEY for AEAudio and then exit regedit
Go to device manager and uninstall the IDT High Def Audio device from Device Manager
Then using the original HP Application and Driver Recovery DVD supplied with the notebook, run the autoplay, choose Hardware Enabling Drivers, tick only the IDT High Def Audio driver and follow the installation instruction on screen. You will be prompted to reboot after which Windows will find new hardware. The IDT will install itself and you will find that the sound works!
Good Luck!
For those that cannot find their original disk, the IDT Audio Driver from the original disk is available at http://tinyurl.com/IDTAudio6540b or http://www.4shared.com/file/RxXn5afj/IDTAUDIO.html

Need bios reset password

Please help me with bios reset password HP pavilion dv4000 - system disabled - 13179 --- s/n (Personal information removed by moderator) - p/n EC329UA#ABA
Thank you

Without the DriveLock password there is no way to access the drive.
Since the DriveLock password is specific to the hard drive I believe your only choice is to replace the drive. You cannot disable or remove DriveLock protection without the password.

Libretto L5, BIOS resetting

I got a serious problem, BIOS password forgotten!!
my Laptop is Libretto L5 series
does anybody know the Toshiba BIOS resetting charge?
Thanks alot.

Hello Jain
As far as I know its not possible to change or to delete the BIOS password without the old password. I'm afraid you have to contact the Toshiba service partner. There are authorized to change or to delete the BIOS password.
Bye

HP Pav. DV4-1428dx updated bios, now just flashing light will not run off ac

ran a few updates including bios, computer went dead with the ac plugged in, will not charge the battery any longer, when it goes dead and I leave it alone it will charge and start up and run off batter but just like right now with ac plugged in the lightning bolt is just flashing blue, i do not understand, ive read on the other sights of resetting the bios with USB drive, anyone got any ideas or assitance?

Dude, I have the same exact problem with mine. It's not a cheap fix either. It definitely is the motherboard.
I'm no expert, but I believe the problem is a dead capacitor on the motherboard preventing it to build up a charge.
I spoke with an HP rep, which told me it's $398 for them to fix.
I let them know that I didn't have another $400 to put into this laptop. So, they suggested I try reseating the motherboard. And also reseating the memory modules.
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01597750.pdf
That is a pdf of the laptop's manual. It'll help in reseating. Page ( 59 ) for the motherboard. Page ( 67 ) for the memory modules.
This hasn't helped at all with mine, but maybe it'll help with yours!

No signal after successful Bios and ME flash

Hi everyone,
I just build my first PC in about ten years deciding to get back into PC gaming but have encountered some problems.
My Build:
MSI Z87i-AC
Intel G3258
2 x 4GB HyperX Fury
Antec 550vp PSU
MSI Power OC gtx 670
After I completed the build all seemed well. It fired up no problem and before long i was installing the OS. However during OS installation after the computer restarted i had no signal to the monitor. I left it like that for about 20 mins then just turned it off. When I booted it back up I had no problems and Windows had installed successfully. Anyway, to cut it short. The computer worked absolutely fine If i shut it down or turned it off but if I manually reset or reset after installing programs etc there was no signal.
I found someone online with the exact same problem so I thought thats would be it sorted. Their solution, (from MSI Support was to update the BIOS and ME to support the Haswell refresh. After this the user's problem was resolved. So I followed the MSI instructions on how to update the BIOS and ME via Mflash and went ahead and done it. It didn't take long and the computer showed a message that the BIOS update was successful and would restart in five seconds.
After the restart it was straight to a no signal screen and no matter what I've tried this is how it remains. The Usb ports don't supply power to my keyboard or usb sticks either. I'm completely stuck!
I've tried switching the ram, using only one stick, a different PSU, with or without gpu etc but still just no signal.
Like I said everything worked great (apart from not being able to restart) before the BIOS update. I was on BIOS 1.5 originally and updated to 1.9.
Thanks for reading!

Ok so I've tried clearing the cmos how you suggested and still nothing... I also tried various other methods from the forums but still just no signal.
I'm completely stuck now as the only probably thing seems like the motherboard is dead I don't think any other hardware could be the problem as it worked fine until the bios flash.
Should i just RMA the board and go for something else?
