MS-6215 Video Standby problem - need new VGA BIOS

MSI Tech Support please respond to this----
I have issues with the Video on the MS-6215 (MS-6351) board. I originally had a version 1 PCB that had numerous stability issues, BUT it worked just fine when connect to the Composite Video Out only and NOT the VGA out. In other words, I had it connected to a TV for a HTPC-type setup. But, they finally fixed some of the issues and I updated the BIOS, well, with that BIOS they included a new Intel i815 VGA BIOS. It only now occurs to me that is important. Well, So now I can turn the computer on and use it on the TV, but once I have it go to standby (any form S1, S3, etc), the video will not return on wake up and the system is completely unresponsive.
MSI graciously *after 5 months of fighting to hear back from them* RMA'd the board and provided me with a Ver 5 PCB. Still the same Video problem. THe latest BIOS still includes a VERY old, and perhaps very buggy VGA BIOS.
There is a much more recent (and have been SEVERAL since the one included in your downloadable mobo BIOS) of the VGA BIOS available at intel's website.
I am convinced that it is simply the VGA BIOS that needs to be updated. COULD YOU PLEASE Integrate Intel's newest 815 VGA BIOS into an update so that the system is usable. Its a pain to have to leave it on 24x7. when I only really need it to wake up when I need files off it or want to use the HTPC functions.
The latest version intel has is 2682  dated 7/18/2002
The version you included is 2462. mobo bios dated 10/23/2001
link to Intel's version - http://ftp://aiedownload.intel.com/df-support/4657/a08/win2k_xp67.zip
it is found in the vbios folder.
THANK YOU!!!

Thank you wonkanoby - maybe this will finally clear up the issue. I can't imagine it is all that hard to integrate the new Video BIOS and up the version number to 2.1
Please, someone in MSI's BIOS building dept, take 15 minutes out and fix a very blatant problem - it will make me and perhaps many other users VERY HAPPY!

  • Problem Updating my VGA BIOS

    Hello.
    I am having a problem updating my VGA Bios.  I can download it, buyt when I go to install it, I get an error and it tries to send to Microsoft.  It has something to do with the VGA Bios Flasher.
    I have a GeForce FX 5900 TD-128.  It shows the bios there, but has a problem installing the new version of the bios.  I am not sure why.  
    Is there any reason why this is happening?

    I am surprised there is even a BIOS revision for that card.
    Generally there is no reason to update the VGA BIOS unless you have an exact reason to do so. If there is no documentation to support this from the vendor then I woould not touch it with a ten foot pole.
    I have explained this in several posts already, if you'd like to search for it.
    Perhaps it's a good reason that it won't work!
    don't be the guinea pig

  • Video Playback problems on new Video iPod

    I just purchased my first video from iTunes (a Commander in Chief episode I had missed) to see how it worked, and I am bummed to report that I couldn't seem to watch more than 5 - 10 minutes at a time before the video would stop and the screen would go black before an Apple icon appeared, followed by the main Menu.
    My only recourse at this point was to restart the video and fast forward it to where I had been "dumped out".
    I had to this 4 times just to finish watching the 40 minute video.
    Has this problem happened to anyone else and/or is there a solution???
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Bummer Folks.
    I took it with me on the airplane yesterday and it did it again 3-4 times over the two 40 minute shows I watched.
    And besides being a pain to fast forward so much to finish them, it was a big drain on the battery.
    Total bummer as I was really looking forward to this feature.
    When I get back home I guess I'll be contacting Apple. I'm glad my wife purchased the extended service plan from them.

  • N560GTX-Ti OC problem after update VGA BIOS with Live Update 5 | SPLIT

    Hello there. You people say the latest BIOS version for 560 OC is 201, but mine is totally different: 70.24.0a.00.00.
    And I experience strange stuttering in all of the games. Maybe BIOS upgrade is needed?
    S/N: 602-V238-16SB1101160663

    Could you please give me the password for the attached file (201ti_Svet.rar)? I'm having occassional freezes with my GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr OC (system completely stops responding while display and sound freeze and it takes around 5 seconds for the PC to respond to reset button). This happens, for example, under Windows 7 in 3DMark11 Deep Sea Demo and in Windows XP randomly, but most often in web browser when watching Adobe Flash content with hardware acceleration enabled? I sincerely hope that BIOS update will help. Thank you in advance.

  • MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR, Mouse problem & Video off problem solved!!!

    I find the following information that I collected very interesting at the very least...
    Here goes...
    The video off problem that I was having was directly linked to the mouse. Here, let me explain the video off problem. In the BIOS Have the Standby mode set to S3. The problem occurred when I started windows, then went into standby, then started back up, then restarted the computer, the monitor would act as if it were in sleep mode, or rather there was no signal being sent to the monitor. Well the odd way I fixed that is by plugging in a standard 2 button PS/2 mouse. Also this fixed the issue with the mouse sometimes not working in windows.
    Here is how I tested.
    Logitech MX700 Cordless Optical Mouse, PS/2 & USB= failed.
    Logitech iFeel Optical Mouse, USB= failed.
    Microsoft Cordless Ball Mouse, PS/2= failed.
    Standard Artec (Cheapy brand) Ball Mouse (With no wheel), PS/2= All issues fixed, and passed.
    When I said failed I do not mean they didn't work, I mean they sometimes didn't work and also caused the Video off problem after restarting the computer.
    Obviously it isn't the ports (PS/2 or USB) that are the problem, it is more like the mouse itself, and the amount of buttons in particular. As you can see above the only mouse that works correctly is the one that only has 2 buttons, the rest has 3 or more buttons along with a Wheel. The MX700 has 8 buttons + wheel, WOW!
    Anyways I figure out it was the mouse, and not the memory.
    Obviously MSI needs to make a patch for this mouse problem.
    I'm still having a hard time believing that the mouse caused the video not to work, but it is true! I spend well over 5 hours testing this crap. Every time with the mice with more then 3 buttons it messed up, and every time with the 2 button old fashion mouse it worked flawlessly!
    MSI, get to work on a new BIOS to fix this mess!!!  :]

    you can get some trouble if you do it the way i did it.
    i was in windows surfing and the pointer just jumped all over the screen.
    when i looked on the other side under a table a friends little kid played with the usn mouse.  )
    bye
    LOL, that isn't what I'm talking about.
    There seems to be a problem with my motherboard accepting mice with more then 2 buttons. It works the first time, but if you restart the computer, the video goes off. If you have both installed, it still messed up.

  • New Intel BIOS for VGA - Satellite A200

    Hello everyone,
    Intel has new vga BIOS for Intel x3100 graphics card, this new bios are in 15.6.1 drivers. My notebook is a Satellite and has this graphic card, and my question is if somebody knows when we can download the new BIOS with new VGA in Toshiba downloads??
    Thanks

    Hi,
    unfortunately this VGA BIOS is not available separately for a mobile system since the VGA BIOS is embedded in the normal BIOS. So if you want to have the latest from toshiba supported VGA BIOS then just update your machines BIOS.
    The problem is that a mobile VGA chipset has another memory and chip timings, so every manufacturer has (especially) its own version of the VGA BIOS.

  • VGA Bios download without internet connection

    Hello,
    can anybody help me? My problem is that one PC (including MSI GeForce 5700) that I use has no internet connection available.
    I would like to download new VGA Bios, which I think should be downloadable with
    MSI Live Update utility.
    Is there any way how to download it on different machine and flash BIOS offline ?
    OTIZZ

    OTIZZ,
    Whay do you need a new BIOS for your Vid Card anyway? Vid Cards are not mobos. The first BIOS 99.99% of the time they get it right.
    Take Care,

    Where is the Vga bios for this card? (Original or updated)

    Sorry for my English.
    I haven't any problem whit this card. And I don't need upgrade the bios.
    But I want to seen in "Archives" if this product is not very unusual. This is a support.
    I take my answer.
    Thanks a lot.

    The difference between this and other Ti4200-8x is it has dual VGA output compare to others' VGA + DVI.
    Have you tried Live-Update?
    May I know why do you need the VGA BIOS? Is the card flawed? Is the RAM on the card running slower? Is there any artifacts? If you don't have this problem, you don't need to update any VGA BIOS.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''

    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.

    Please one again Nokia, I NEED THE NEW REPLACEMENT..

    @Rafi808
    Have you installed any third party applications to account for the sound of the continuous auto focus (CAF) mechanism?
    You probably need to visit Nokia Care facility so that device can be reset to "factory settings" and completely re-install device software, before pointing towards hardware issue with camera module itself.
