NV317MH.143 is the latest one for your card
do you use latest live update version?
can you show a screeshot from this issue?
I can confirm that what he's saying is true, I also have a 980 with 143 bios and MSI Live Update is telling me that there is a new bios 113 for my 980 Gaming.
So what do we do now? update it to 113 or leave it with 143?
Bcbarnes, lower number doesn't mean its a downgrade, they are just for different batches of 980 Gaming GPU's.
113 should really be for 980 gaming gpu's with serial number of lets say 03s for example, so it is strange that MSI Live Update is telling us to install 113 since our 980 serial code is 11s.

[request] what BIOS should I be using? GTX 980

I have a GTX 980 gaming 4G, serial #:
602-V317-11SB1410046189
MSI Live update previously had me install NV317MH.143. Now it is telling me the latest version is NV317MH.113, which looks like a downgrade in version #. Why is it swapping between the 14x and 11x lines? What version should I be using? I have Live Update 6.0.012 and win8.1.

You can use Microsoft Office for Mac, one of the free Office clones such as LibreOffice or Apple's iWork suite of apps. The iWork apps - Keynote (presentation), Pages (word processing & page layout) & Numbers (spreadsheet) are available individually from the Mac App Store. There are also versions for iOS available separately. And, coming this fall, iWork for iCloud.

What program should I be using?

Hello friends,
I am wanting to make a 3-5 sec video clip taken portion of a movie that I have on my HD and email it to a friend.
I figured I could do this in iMovie, yet the file will not import. The original format was MPEG-1. I read that iMovie would only import MPEG-4 (why only MPEG-4!?), so I converted the file to MPEG-4 yet it still will not import.
Should I be using a different program for this? I don't want to spend any money right now. I have all of the iLife programs, and all the bundled stuff that comes with a current model iMac. In addition I just purchased Toast, but Toast is not for editing is it?
If there's no way to make iMovie work for me, is there a free download out there? Is there another program on my system that I could use for this?
Thanks.

What happens if you open it with quicktime and export it to an edit-friendly format?

What hardware should i consider using if i am a graphic and media design?

I am a Graphical and media designer who is also into coding so i like producing websites. However, when it comes to reccommending hardware or even knowing any hardware at the slightest, i get really muddled up when choosing the right componants. I would like to know what good stuff i can use such as
Desktop
Hardware
Processor
Memory
Power Supply
CPU ?!?!?
these are just examples but it would be good if you can help me out!
Thanks.

If you're considering purchasing a Mac, why not go to an Apple Store and talk to one of the people there. Tell them exactly how you'll use your Mac. You'll get good advice and no sales pressure. If you're not near an Apple Store, you can call the Apple toll-free number where you live and get the same good advice. You can find out about hardware and software that you need to do the job.

MOVED: X58A-GD65 BIOS: should I update it to version 22.3?

This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Undervolting & Modding Corner.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=148171.0

Ok, so here's my system:
Win7 64bit Ultimate
MSI X58A-GD65 BIOS V22.2B8
Intel i7 930 (D0) (OC @4.2GHz)
RAM OCZ 3x2GB kit OCZ3RPR2000C8LV2G (OC @1.6GHz)
OCZ RevoDrive 80GB
2x WD Caviar 500GB 7200rpm SATAII
Sapphire Radeon HD 5870
Enermax Liberty Eco 620W (ELT620AWT-ECO)
Even if I remove the OC, all the APS LEDs are lit up. I shot a short video that I took with stock settings and system at idle, so that you can see what it look like.
I add that the problem was present even with the original BIOS v22.1 (and the PC was not overclocked, as it was impossible to do so with that BIOS).
Therefore, I was wondering if there are some settings that I should check, or if I can hope that v22.3 will solve the issue.
But I would also like to know other users' opinion regarding the fact that I'm using a beta version of the BIOS, and if for this reason I should upgrade it in any case.
Thanks again!

Having issues with PC gaming and my Linksys AC1900 router! (What settings should I be using?)

Well I recently purchased a linksys AC1900 for a better/faster connection with my internet. Sadly, I have been having issues with online gaming. I am attempting to play a blizzard game (Diablo 3) but its not letting my connect. I did a direct wired connection and it worked just perfect. However, I dont want to play in my garage...lol. Does anyone have any ideas what settings I should be using? It lets me connect to battlenet but when my character loads into the world I get disconnected. I tried opening ports, shutting off uPnP, and various other things. Is the the router or is it me? Someone please help!

I got confused with your response. If you are still having the same challenge, make sure you have enough speed to play any online game. You may also try to reboot your PC and the router. If the result is the same, check if the firmware is up to date. You may try to manually update it on the Linksys Smart WiFi page. Here's how. Once accomplished, reset, reboot, and reconfigure the router. I hope this helps!

Small metatag / file renaming script: what "stuff" should I be using?

Hi!
I need a small script that moves all videos, images and other files in a folder to
./year-month/day-hour-minute-seconds_originalfilename.ext
The date/time is supposed to come from the meta tags if the file has its own timestamp and from the file stats (creation date) if no meta data is available.
Now, this is how I would usually do something like this:
1) Install exiv2 and mediainfo and various other cli-tools that can extract timestamps from file meta data.
2) Mess around with those programs until after piping the output trough about 200 grep's and sed's I get a line of bash for everything I need.
3) Stick those lines together somehow into one huge mess consisting basically of just one single giant line of bash that inexplicably does the job
4) Instantly forget how it works and somehow accidental mess up my whole system the next time I try to modify & execute the script.
I already almost finished a bash script that works like that. And broke it. And don't understand how it works any more, so I was about to start over... but at the moment I guess I might have just enough spare time to do it right instead... so...
- What's would be the "right" way to do something like this?
- Should I just learn how to use functions instead of pipes or forget about bash and try python?
- Still use regex to fiddle it together or use something that can handle date/time as actual date+time instead of putting it into a string?
- Use various external tools (like exiv2 and mediainfo from the repos) or take something that has... uhm... API's or something... to handle... tag stuff itsself?
- What language / tools / methods would a programmer that knows all there is to know choose for a job like this?
I've written a lot of small scripts and a few "programs" in the past but never really got around to learn programming... for some reason I just got used to do everything I needed with only a few functions, loops and a lot of trying around + copy&paste somehow even if the code gets insanely awkward & impractical... so... I have no idea where to start looking for a "good" solution to this problem.
Any hints?
Thx!

Argh, I tried - seems to work but I made a mess again and just looking at it confuses me. It's not as bad as usual, but still...:

Also, for some reason it doesn't work with bash. Only zsh. No idea why.
I just have accumulated too many bad habits with bash I guess... Any hints on how I should proceed now?
Throw the whole script away and try to learn python? xD

What dpi should I be using for prints?

I usually print photos directly from within Aperture by using the Apple/Kodak 'order prints' system built in to Aperture. However, I have had a few problems with this and decided recently to try using a local vendor instead. I notice the vendor recommends .jpg files with a minimum dpi of 300. When I looked at the export settings in Aperture (under "jpg-original size"), the dpi is set at 72. My questions are:
1) Will changing it to 300 dpi make a big difference?
2) When I've been ordering from Apple/Kodak using Aperture's print service, what settings are being used there? 72, 300 or other?
3) If I give digital files to someone on a CD, should I export at 300 dpi if they intend to make prints? I have, evidently, been exporting at 72 dpi all this time...
I should probably point out that I shoot in RAW, then convert to .jpg when I've done my adjustments and am ready to export to a CD.
Many thanks.

Jamie,
As iDave stated, the DPI number that your picture indicates is not necessarily relevant to your printing process. What is important is how many pixels you have to work with.
That 300 DPI is a somewhat magical number, dealing with physics and human anatomy. At normal reading distance (something like 16 inches?), the average human eye can tell differences if a picture is printed at less than 300 DPI. That is, your eye is can resolve up to 300 DPI at reading distance.
To find the DPI, there is no setting. Take the number of horizontal pixels in your picture (let's say 3000), and divide it by the horizontal size of your photo (Let's say 6 inches if you are printing 4x6). That photo can have 500 DPI, when printed, if the photo printer supports resolutions that high. 500 DPI is greater than 300 DPI, so your eyes will be happy. They will be just as happy as if you had printed with 1800 pixels wide, which is 300 DPI. If you print out a photo that is 1200 pixels wide to a 4x6 print, you will have 200 DPI, and your eye will tell that things aren't really quite crisp.
So, taking the math the other way, if you are printing 4x6 prints, you would want the long dimension to be at least 6x300=1800 pixels. In other words, don't crop a photo to less than 1800 pixels wide and expect it to print sharply. Also, don't use an Aperture export option that reduces the number of pixels ("TIFF - 50% of original size") if your original was less than 3600 pixels wide.
All this math of course has nothing to do with the quality of your original. If your original wasn't in focus, printing it as a 4x6 with 300 DPI will look out of focus. If you threw away a lot of pixels because it's a low quality JPEG, you won't get those pixels back and the photo may look blocky at any size.
This also says nothing about how good your eye really is, too, and how far away you will be when viewing your prints.
Hope this makes sense,
nathan

Bios : Not allowed to post external link, where should i send it ?
Upload it to some filehoster. If not allowed to post links yet, mask it by XX at beginning and end (e.g. XXlink.comXX)

My printers do not get along with Firefox. What encoding should I be using?

My printer will not print what is shown on the screen. It is unreadable.

MOVED: [Request] Latest BIOS for N770 TF 2GD5/OC

This topic has been moved to GAMING Graphics Cards.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=255842.0

The latest UEFI/GOP is attached.
Decompress the provided .rar archive with Winrar: http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Then flash the included file with Nvflash for dos: http://www.guru3d.com/files_details/nvflash_download.html
To do so rename the included file to .rom and create a dos bootstick (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=165175.0)
Put nvflash and the vbios file on it and boot from the stick. Then type nvflash -4 -5 -6 gop.rom (if renamed vbios that way) and hit enter. Confirm the questions and let the tool flash
