thanks for your comment ...
BIOS updating is a necessary thing as MSI does not support my GPU on its mainstream BIOS updates.
as it happens, another member of the forum told me that these BIOS updates were actually supported by MSI:

Z87-GD65 - updated BIOS gives no USB at all

hi,
i had the MSI live update application, well, updating my BIOS recently.
and now my whole system is non-functional
what an update!
when booting i can use the keyboard to get into the BIOS/EFI settings
but as soon as windows 8 x64 starts all USB connections are disconnected.
any suggestions on the settings that i have to have to enable windows 8 to function again?
thanks,

MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming BIOS Update

Bought this setup quite a while ago, running a 4670k on the z87 gd65 gaming board and thought about trying a bit of OCing, probably just gonna try out the OC Genie for now, but i was wondering if it would be a good idea to do a BIOS update or is that not necessary? Im still running on bios 1.3 which from what i can see on the msi site is a quite old one.

No, 1.3 is too outdated. If wanting to go for latest generation vga get the latest vga (1.B):
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
A.) Download the attached archive (E7845IMS_1B0.rar) and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
B.) Download and install the Forum flash tool.
C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
F.) Boot to the USB
G.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash
H.) After flashing reinstall ME drivers in Windows: http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_amt90_mb.zip
Thanks Flobelix, running windows 7 but i guess the procedure is still the same, are the ME drivers the chipset drivers? i downloaded the chipset drivers for my OS from the msi site (intel_chipse_9_mb.zip) or is it the "Intel Management Engine Driver+Microsoft hotfix".

Will the Z87-GD65 GAMING + bios update support an i7 4790K

Hi,
I was checking MSI official webpage for the Z87-GD65 GAMING, and seems the last bios 1.9 2/14/14 says,
Quote
Support Next Generation Processors.
But no direct info if it supports the i7 4970K, i been very happy with 4770K but my Blue Iris camera server is asking for quad core to increase the framrates, so i could upgrade my main pc and move the 4770K but before committing, would be good to know my motherboard will support the CPU.
Thanks for your time,

General consensus is the 4790k is a Haswell 4770k rebranded with better TIM and higher clock rate. It should work right out of the box on Z87. Should know for sure around the 25th of this month at the CPU release and people start testing it.

Update bios via boot usb

HP mini 5101 product FM978UT#ABA
Current bios F.02
According this manual http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=32...
I'm finish 3 steps, and I have a USB stick with
68DGI.BIN
config.sys
gpl2.txt
KERNEL.SYS
ROMPAQ.EXE
after I'm put this USB to HP5101 and power on, and it loading system, don't update bios
p.s. BIOS system default.

Are you saying that you are trying to update the BIOS through USB, but you are unable to?
Are you receiving any kind of error messages?
Thanks,
Kyle

MOVED: Tried to update BIOS Please help!!

*MSI recommend you to update BIOS with ME8 only if you are using Ivy Bridge 22nm CPU.
Sorry to say but it seams illogical. AFAIK it is impossible to flash form SB to IB bios using Ivy Bridge. Am I wrong?
Going further... I can not find any positive reports that users can get working system by changing cpu to Ivy after all those bad flashes. I see many suggestions to try it but I can not see any "success!" info. IMHO MSI flash procedure is just "somehow" unreliable. It is nice that MSI decided to support IB on older motherboards but we see too many bricks on our forum.
My idea (wild guess) to avoid bricking is to flash with only one stick of memory.
PS: IMHO Click Bios II attracts too much too many P67 users (like me)

H55-GD65 update bios

Hi.
I tried to update bios from 1.3 to 1.5. Via live update I downloaded exe file. After running file I was asked to turn off all running programs. I turned off all, but one soft still looked as running. Name was 1. Start. After force turning off this item win7 shut down screen appeared. So I was not able to update firmware this way.
I tried another solution: I found ami bios flashing utility in live update directory. Run and chose 1.5 file and update was executed. But after updating bios to 1.5, i have problems.
1. ocgenie reduce auto overclocking my i5-660. Before updating I have 4200 MHz, now I have 3700 Mhz.
2. I have very slow starting windows 7 x64 ulti since bios 1.5. I have SSD OCZ Vertex 2 and booting to win lasted few seconds. Now its about 30 seconds. i don't know where is a problem, but start of win significantly increased.
Any idea where is a problem with OC and slow booting win? Could it be a result of my not standard updating bios?
Thx. very much for any solutions.
My PC:
MSI H55-GD-65
Intel I5-660
GAINWARD BLISS GTS250
ZEPPELIN 2x2GB
SSD OCZ vertex 2 60GB

Turn off OC Genie, disable it in BIOS and then manually OC in BIOS.
Why did you update BIOS in the first place? If you didn't have any problem that needed update then go back to the older one. Just because there is is a newer BIOS does not mean you need to use it. Updated BIOS is to fix particular problems or most of the time update for latest CPU's. If neither applies to you then you should not have flashed the later BIOS.
Edit: Mine came with 1.0 and I needed to flash 1.2 to cure memory compatibility issue and have had no reason to flash any later BIOS than that.
Hi.
I wanted to upgrade firware on my SSD disk. Updating firmware can be done only in AHCI mode, I tried to switch from ide to ahci but NTLDR error appeared. So first I tried to update bios. (still ahci mode doesn't work in win7 ultimate x64, every sopution I found doesn't work).
Manual OC - I could manually OC, but I'm not very skilled in oc, so that's why I bought msi mainboard with ocgenie. Maybe I downgrade firmware back to 1.3.

Re: Z87-GD65 GAMING BIOS Update. Best approach?

Thats great, thanks for your reply Svet. I'll repeat the same process with the BIOS you posted tonight.
Kind Regards,
Buz.

So my laptop was lister in this list:

But now they removed it?
Are they stopping with driver support for older notebooks?

MSI Z87-G45 Updated bios to 1.3 with M-Flash without ME

So is this a problem ? should ME be updated as well ?
I went from the first bios to this one but only saw later on that is was suppose to be flashed with ME.
So should i re flash the bios ? if anyone can tell me that would be much appreciated.

Thanks. Nevertheless, yesterday I was upgrading the bios to version 1.4 and bricked the board. BSOD during erasing flash and that's it. PC never boot again. Now sending to RMA. So be careful with flashing! This board does not have dual bios unfortunately :(
I had to RMA a brand new board the first month I had it because out of the box I could not update the board. When I called MSI support they a) had zero RMA stock available and b) were going to try to give me refurb until I threw a fit. I had purchased some upgrades and it was about two weeks before the build so I was unable to return to the seller for an exchange and directed to MSI.
After a couple weeks MSI ended up sending me a new retail board that had been "personally QC'd" by the tech I had dealt with on the phone. I was assured the board could now by flashed and sure enough this was the case. The upper heatsinks were physically "damaged" however, not functionally but aesthetically. They must have touched plastic to them while they were nice and warm because there's a gob of fused plastic/disfigured heatsink now.
I also now hang trying to update. So, I'm pretty much done with board, done with MSI.

GSkill oh dear.
Use 1 RAM stick with GPUs of your choice. I am not just sure if 295X2 should be mixed with 290x.

Have MSI p67 GD65 - update bios to 1.7 help.

Hi there,
I want to update my bios to 1.7.
When I search on the site I don't see 1.7, only 1.6. Where are people getting 1.7? Also, I hear there's something else you need to download as well? Something about IME?
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Also, is it required to clear cmos? I have to take the case apart right?
Thanks.

Looking for a stable 4.8 ghz (4770k/MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming) BIOS tips?

Yeah I know. It's a lot of volts. But other than deliding it, which I will do soon, I'm looking for any BIOS tips on decreasing the voltage and keeping it from getting the BSOD after an hour of gaming and general use. This whole platform is new to me since my last OC'ing experience was with socket 775/X38.
One approach I was thinking to take is using Aida64's stress test by individually stressing the cpu, cache and memory seperately since all the controllers are individual entities now. That way if the cache is crashing from lack of voltage maybe I can come down on the vcore, or maybe turn off XMP and run at 1333mhz, etc.. If you guys have any BIOS tips I would appreciate the help. Yeah I can do 4.5/1.26 all day long but what fun is that? Thanks!
Current BIOS: E7845IMS V1.1
Build date: 4/26/2013
ME Version 9.0.2.1345
4.8 ghz/1.445V/2.0VCCIN/4.0Ring/1.2RingV/Enabled XMP profile, VDimm to 1.59. Undelided. Only ran Aida for 30 min on cpu test. Max core temps of 82C.
Another useful guide getting me to 4.8 was this:

Nice of you just how you respond to post
Hijack the thread with next to useless replies, sing praises of brand-X, and then the responses are considered not nice? As xmad recommended, open a new thread with all of your systems components. From watching an uncle overclock his MSI Z87 to 50X on air cooling, it was relatively simple with some very slow and careful bits of trial and error done in small increments. It's a poor workman that blames his tools, think of it as a challenge if nothing else.

sounds like a bad motherboard, trying different kind/brand of RAM would help. also, I am assuming the CPU fan is firmly plugged in in "CPU fan header" on the board, right? is there 1 or 2 of those? try one RAM stick in all slots one at a time, then same with other stick. if all that fails, i would think it's a mobo.
