Motherboard X79A-GD45 (8D) and bios 7760vC5.

In the bios I can activate "Fast Boot" but I am no longer able to set the following sub-options as I could do with bios 7760vC4:
1. Network Stack Driver Support – Enabled / Disabled
2. USB Support – Full Initial / Partial Initial / Disabled
3. PS2 Devices Support – Enabled / Disabled
When I now activate that "Fast Boot" wat setting will be active for the sub-options not shown anymore?

I am not 100% sure, but if Fast Boot / Win 8 options are enabled all of those settings are moot and un-needed / un-available.
PS2 = legacy
USB support default to full
Network Stack Driver is bypassed during fast boot
Again these are only assumptions, you might want to contact MSI directly for an exact answer.
>>How to contact MSI.<< If you service center has a direct email support address or phone number I would recommend that over registering to ask a question. Let us know what they say.

during boot i get b2 b4 and 92 messages but not bios splash screen.
When doing a test with an old ati card the system shows splah screen all is fine.
I have 4 systems like this all behaving the same
any ideas

Hello I updated the bios, was not neccesarry but problems remains.
cleared the cmos several times.
I have to inform you that i'm building 4 similar systems all suffering from the same problem.
During boot there is a black boot screen not splash screen. and on the top left a cursor and in the bottom right b2 b4 and 92 messages.
When I install and old ati x1050pro all is ok during boot I see the splash screen and i'm able to enter the bios.
boot time approx 20 sec.
when running the system with the msi n680gtx boot times are back to 2 min and a long period with only the black boot screen and the bios codes.
As suggested I tested the card in a other system. Motherboard is asus. And voila I get a splash screen.
STRANGE THING IS THAT THIS SCREEN IS NOT RESISED BUT IS I GUESS 800 X 600 AND CENTERED IN THE SCREEN.
Also after several reboots I could not get a screen filled splash screen.
Can this be a video card bios issue ?

Pegatron IPMTB-TK motherboard version 1.04 and BIOS question?

Hi,
I bought a refurbished HP Pavilion Elite m9650f, Win 7 on 04-21-2010
and it too has suffered from the crashes, freezes and multiple BSOD
that many people have been complaining about. I have the Pegatron
IPMTB-TK TRUCKEE version 1.04 motherboard.
HP calls it TRUCKEE-UL8E.
Am I looking to replace it with version 1.04 E01 or version 1.05E?
(With much reading on the web about my m9650f problems,
I finally have it maybe 90% stable after replacing the hard drive,
upgrading to BIOS ver 5.29 and replacing all the RAM.)
I know there is a class action suit including the m9650f pending.
http://www.hpelitedesktopsettlement.com/
Will I be able to request a repair for my HP computer?
When will HP let people request a repair?
Also, I currently have BIOS ver. 5.29 and notice that there is a ver. 6.10
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=pv-88852-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
BIOS ver 6.10 improves system support for Intel Core i7-980X Extreme Edition processors which is what ver 5.29 says it does.
BIOS ver 6.10 also installs HP Vision Diagnostic tool which I don't know anything about.
I don't plan on installing an Intel Core i7-980X Extreme Edition processor.
Should I upgrade to BIOS ver 6.10 or just leave well enough alone?
Thank you for your time.

Hi Dashby,
My motherboard is 1.04E01 and it has been very stable. I have not heard or seen anyone with 1.05.
You can put PCI cards other than x16 in the PCI-E x16 slot such as x1 or x4 cards.
Typically what happens if another video were to be install in the second PCI-E x16 is the total 16 lanes of bandwidth would be split between the two slots. You can't run SLI or CrossFire on the truckee motherboard so in my opinion a second video card is a waste. Just use a BIG video card if needed.
You can use PC Wizard and look under Mainboard PCI Express to gain information about the PCI-E slots and the speed that they are running when a card is installed.
The Asus U3S6 expansion card is an interesting piece of technology. hmmmm I wonder if the bios would support a SATA 3 boot device?

Msi x79a-gd45 plus and Dolby Digital Live

I bought a pair of Astro A50's to enjoy surround sound music and gaming. I have surround for music but with gaming you need Dolby Digital Live to get 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound with this headset. I have a msi x79a-gd45 plus, now does anyone know if DDL is compatible with my on-board sound card? Apparently you can download DDL for 5 dollars and I'd love to for the sake of surround gaming, but only if it actually works with my card.

Have you checked with the Realtek website for that application?

X79A-GD45 8D and 64GB RAM

I want to install 64GB of RAM in my X79A motherboard. What speed RAM should I purchase? Also, what settngs should I run the RAM at?

The best would be buying a four stick 64 GB kit. At that density (8GB modules) any faster than 1333 will cost a lot. Faster speeds will not make your system noticeable faster.
In any case make sure you buy a kit and don't mix two 32GB kits. Could cause a lot of trouble, would put a lot of strain on the cpu's mem controller and will most likely result in having to reduce the speeds anyway.

Hi guys
I am having some issues since i bought this card.
I updated the biis to v10.7 and now i can not change the cpu multiplier it stays in auto and i can not change it

Now clicking or entering doesnt make anything.do i have to enable oc anywhere else?

Change it with +/- keys on numpad.

X79A GD45 Slow start and slow boot into windows with SSD

Im having some major issues with my X79A GD45 board, When I start the system it takes about 30 seconds sometimes more for something to appear on the screen and from cold boot it starts stops and then starts again before loading.
Once its loaded it is taking forever to get into windows Im running 2 6gb/s SSD's in raid and the windows logo is able to appear and flash 3 or 4 times before I even get into windows.
Ive tried it with just a single drive and re installations of windows but get exacly the same thing its driving me mad as Ive spent so much money on this machine. Details of my system are below:
MSI X79A GD45 v1.0 Bios 1.6
Intel I7 3820
Corsair Vengeance 16gb 1600 Cl9
2 x GTX 680 in SLi
Creative Soundblaster 3D Recon Fatality Sound Card
2 x Sandisk Extreme 240gb in Raid 0
Silvertone Strider 850w PSU
LG Bluray Writer

Updated the SSD Firmwares and it made no difference. Ive already tried single drives and the same. The drives are installed into SATA 1 and SATA2 ports the 6gb/s ones. The hang time is atleast 20 seconds at the splash screen alone before loading into windows. I checked the event log for booting and this is what it showed:

Latest bios for x79a-gd45 (8D)

Where can 12.3+ bios be acquired for the x79a-gd45 8d? The max on the http://us.msi.com/product/mb/X79A-GD45--8D-.html#/?div=BIOS download page is 10.1 and dated 2011... for the x79a-gd45 no 8dimm its 2.4 dated 9-2013 http://us.msi.com/product/mb/X79A-GD45.html#/?div=BIOS. The X79A-GD45 Plus 17.0 bios is date 1-2013 which is most likely before they could have had an ivy-e test sample to create a bios http://www.msi.com/product/mb/X79A-GD45-Plus.html#/?div=BIOS. The most similar board the X79A-GD65 (8D)'s(in appearance and overall features the gd45 8d missing a few chips and features like extra Sata III) most recent bios is 4.4 dated 8-2013 http://www.msi.com/product/mb/X79A-GD65--8D-.html#/?div=BIOS. I am at a loss to find 12.3+ bios for the x79a-gd45 (8d) and I did check an MSI FTP that seems to be devoid of bios. Any help greatly appreciated. I have 4930k and psu inbound need to get this board flashed ASAP. Thanks in advance this thread gives me hope.

Msi x79a-gd45 - Continuous restar loop - Code 67

My computer was working normally yesterday installed my 2 vga and the problem started:
Problem: everything appears to power up correctly, but it only stays powered up for about 5 seconds, then it switchs off, and then continues to repeat this process.
It also restarts and does the same thing in a continuous loop.
Debug display flashes 19, then 67 OR 6F
The vga This Ok, tested it on another computer, also tested other memories and nothing remains the same.
I tested with only 1 vga and the same thing, do not know what to do.

31 is a memory problem. Is this two separate 2X2GB kits mixed together? UEFI/BIOS v1.4 is the correct basic one to support your CPU, so that should not be a problem.
Added additional info: The memory manufacturer does not show X79 platform as being supported. Also, if using two kits, please see note 3..
>> Product Info Page <<
tested with one memory on list and got same error..
I will send the cpu and motherboard to RMA...
I do not know what happened
thanks!!

MSI X79A-GD45 (8D) BIOS help??

Hi guys, I'm new here as I've only just managed (barely!) to build my first PC. Although I'm slightly worried that once I turn it on the BIOS of my motherboard won't be the version required to run the i7-3820. I've read in a number of threads from different forums and it seems to be a recurring theme of this motherboard being slightly problematic.
I'm still waiting on my PSU so I can't check it quite yet although everything else has been assembled.
My question is, can I find out the BIOS version of my motherboard from something like a serial no., and if so, where?
My system is as follows -
MSI X79A-GD45(8D)
i7-3820
R9 270x Hawk
2x8GB G-Skill 8GB Ripjaws X DDR3 2133
Cooler Master Hyper 412s
Corsair RM650 80 Plus Gold 650W
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as well as advice on what to do if the BIOS is an old man.
P.S. - there is a ''revision history'' inside the ''software & application'' user guide which notes an update of something (not sure if BIOS) up to ''v1.6 - Update Control Center 2.5 and add MSI SUITE''.
Thanks!

Quote from: flobelix on 21-January-14, 06:14:05
That's a fairly new board. It is manufactured 2013-02-08. All Sandy Bridge E cpus (all 3820s) should be supported out of the box then. It is most likely at bios 10.7 (7760vA7) one of the last bios versions before Ivy Bridge E support had been implemented. A newer bios (12.1) came 2013-02-21.
Sounds like good news, although I'm a pessimist by nature...
Quote from: Sea Dog on 21-January-14, 06:14:10
It is doubtful if that reseller has done anything with the board's initial factory installed UEFI/BIOS version. An admin or moderator will be able to determine the date of manufacture for you and what course of action will need to be done.
You could always try the CPU and see if it will POST or not. No harm should be done trying it. If it doesn'r POST, then you have a pretty good idea it needs the UEFI/BIOS updated. Be sure to 'barebones' the system (minimum hardware installed) outside the case on a plain piece of unprinted cardboard or untreated wood. One RAM stick in the DIMM1 slot.
Hopefully I wont have to follow this advice, took me so long to set everything up!
I did manage to find a few dates on the mobo itself, including one mentioning ''EuP 2013'' as well as a sticker ending with the numbers ''2014''. I think it's a good indication although I may just be seeing what I want to there. Any idea what EuP means?
Thanks for your help so far guys.
