MSI ClickBIOS changelog?

Hi..
I've been an early adopter of the new UEFI firmware that MSI supplies to some of its P45 motherboards. I own a P45D3 Platinum motherboard myself and I think it's an exciting development that MSI is doing with its new firmwares.
I recently upgraded my firmware from the original UEFI firmware file that I downloaded (E7513IMS.10E) to the one that is currently available (E7513IMS.120) through the built in firmware upgrade app in the EFI firmware.
Now... the problem is that I don't know what has changed in the new release, or why I should upgrade (I did it anyway to see if they had fixed the issue with enabling Intel VT, which they actually had). It didn't even say on the ClickBIOS page that a new release had been made, I discovered it by seeing what the download link points at.
So, is there a forum dedicated specifically to UEFI adopters where you can talk about your issues, and where new release announcements are made?

Yeah, I think so, too.

There is no special UEFI Forum and unfortunately changelogs and release announcements are hard to come by.  However, you are more than invited to start a discussion about UEFI Implementations here.  There are not very many topics about UEFI in this forum, because not very many users are seriously using it.  But the more information we make available here, the better.  And I am sure more users will pop in once we get something going here.
About Changelogs: Let me try what I can find.
The changes from E7513IMS.10E --> E7513IMS.100 were posted in the German MSI Forum:

This BIOS fixes the following problem of the previous version:
- Support HotKey "F10" function.
- Add COM Port function under DOS.
I know that this information is only partial.  But I am sure, it can be pieced together.  Let me check, if I can find more information.

  • MSI Big Bang Marshall (Intel P67) - MSI ClickBIOS II?

    Hello, MSI related population of the planet.
    I would like to ask if there is a BIOS ClickBIOS v2 for the motherboard Big Bang Marshall?
    MSI only informs there is a ClickBIOS and it looks like the 1st generation. However, on other motherboards
    which were launched approximately at the same time (such as Z68A-GD65 or Z68A-GD80) there is a 2nd
    version of MSI ClickBIOS. My question is, if the MSI ClickBIOS II is also available for Big Bang Marshall board?
    I thank you kindly for your answer and wish you a nice rest of the day!
    Best regards,
    lazyone1

    Best way to find out may be in contacting MSI Technical directly. Only the Z68 G3's had Click II, not the first released Z68 B3's.

  • MSI Clickbios IV

    I have very specifically ordered MSI boards for some of our security related appliances. The choice is based on the fact that all prior motherboards to the model we purchased
    1) retained settings after upgrading the bios with LiveUpdate
    ...and
    2) Clickbios allowed us to set the "start after power failure" to always on via TeamViewer
    Now, for some unknown reason our appliances based on the following MOBO: H97M-E35 fail to start after power failures. There are a few critical issues that causes this: On these Motherboards the bios settings revert to factory settings after upgrading, and to make matters worse Clickbios II doesn't work on these. To make matters from bad to really awful, Clickbios4 which is supposed to work cannot be found anywhere on the internet for download. What do we do here?
    As it is, we need to fly all across the country to resolve this debacle, but if we can at least permanently fix this situation it will do some good. We have on appliance that is still online, so a download link for Clickbios 4 will save us a small fortune...

    What do you mean by "upgrading"? BIOS update? Or what other upgrade do you mean?
    If possible, please tell us BIOS version you currently have.
    Did you reinstall Intel Management Engine and other required drivers when you flashed BIOS?
    For any reason, you might also want to contact MSI as soon as possible, as with the ClickBIOS software, they might be able to help on this a bit quicker: >>How to contact MSI.<<

  • MSI K9VGM-V, BIOS changelogs?

    Would someone be so kind and please explain where i could find the changelogs for the MSI K9VGM-V BIOS, also where i can download them.
    most important is to find the changelogs to further track down a possible solution.
    the url: http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=bios&maincat_no=1&prod_no=260 doesnt really help me at all.
    "Live Update" and "Live Update 3" is not an option.

    Hello and welcome!
    Solution to what problem? BIOS updating should not be the first option. Also please supply a list of your hardware, including the PSU.
    From googling a little I find the latest update to be 1.7. Doubt there are new updates. What do you currently have?

  • MSI KT3 Ultra ARU 5.7 BIOS and SoudBlaster Cards - Audigy

    I have flashed my BIOS to 5.7 Version and my sound card start to make a lot of noise (crackling) when play AC3 or DVD. If you dont want to use the new AMD CPU 333 FSB you dont need to flash the BIOS - I have Flashed to 5.6 again but, if you want to use a 333 FSB CPU you can flash the BIOS to version 5.7 and if have sound problems use the PCI latency patch for VIA chipsets.
    VIA chipset MotherBoard owners who have through all of the above and still have sound problems with their Soundblaster cards, might want to look into the PCI latency patch for VIA chipsets - get it here:
    http://www.georgebreese.com/net/software/
    (scroll down the page there just a little to get to it).
    There's also a similar page about resolving sound problems on Via chipset based computers here:

    Since my chip is an unlocked, I cannot easily run it at the default, but I can underclock it. At 100x6.0=600mhz, USB does not work, as well as 100x12.5. Same with 133x6.0 and 133x12.5. It appears to make no difference underclocking or overclocking.
    I downloaded the right BIOS listed on MSI's KT3 Ultra-ARU page. I don't think the BIOSes are different anyway, since the same files, changelog, and etc are also listed for the Ultra-2 board.
    A thing to note, that this is the onboard VIA-controller USB ports doing this. My Ultra-ARU's NEC-controller USB 2.0 ports work fine in both Win2k and Linux if I hook my mouse and keyboard up in those. This is not an ideal solution for me though.

    For BIOS Update: >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<

    Hey guys real quick. So after updating to the new 7670IMS>310 bios so that I may use my GTX780s, I reinstalled with windows 8. Everything was fine until I was on teamviewer just last nite and upon switcing sides my bios got corrupted. How do I know you ask? Upon getting back into windows my LANS did not work so I had not internet connection. I tried uninstalling it from Device Manager and deleting it. After a few clrmos. I thought I would switch over to the other bios and see if the LAN works and it does because of the status lights because now it lights up. So I switch back to main bios and LAN works but it would not post whatsoever and just cycles through post finally ending with a " DE ". Not sure what the new LED DEBUG codes are but if someone could post it would be nice to be able to refer to it.
    Anyways on win 8, no matter what it will not let me into windows And when it looks like it will...gives me "your pc ran into problems and we are collecting data and we'll restart after" message. After a few of these wonderful messages, I decided I was going to flash my bios again. It did look like I was sucessful until after restart it did the same thing. Going through post I saw 19,15 then shuts off. Does this and ends with "DE" pc still on but nothing. No windows.
    I got lucky a few times and was able to get into my bios and decided I was going back to Win 7 64......I put the good ole XFX6990 back in and got windows 7 to reinstall and continue to flash my bios to an older one. I used your method before and it work> from 3.0 back to 1.5 then from 1.5 back to 1.2 for OC purposes. So i tried that method but it looked like it just reflash it with 3.1, odd.
    So after a few restarts everything seems fine, no cycles just normal. When I reboot normal process no double boots or cycles this time so I thought hey, that fixed my corrupted bios somehow. I thought I gotten lucky.... So I switch out the good old 6990 and in with my 780s. Reinstalled win 7 and upon completion of windows update. Again with the cycles of 19,15 turns off does this again over and over like 5 or 6 times and ends with "DE"
    And this is where I'm at atm. I remember when I DL'd the flasher and bios. I only saw 2 files which was " VALVE CHECK AND E7670IMS.310".
    When I tried to do it again with the same method as the first I have "
    #BIOS
    #BK_6.Z7
    #EFIFLASH
    #MSIHQ(icon)
    #MSIHQ_INFO
    #MT420"
    This time it does not go through the same when flashing, just tells me bios update complete. I've done this a million times and all have been successful.
    Basically I'm still on 3.1 bios but I 'm curious as what other methods do you suggest I try now? I have left everything alone after reinstalling windows and updates. Everything seems okay, reboots fine no cycles and still get the random hit or miss with 15,19 turns off cycles and ends with "DE". Would like to get a resolution if possible. Thank you and I know I said real quick right, but really. Thanks for any help.
    I'm going nuts!!

  • Wrong temps reported in clickbios and coretemp

    Hi all,
    I have noticed with my new system build that coretemp and clickbios occasionally will report the wrong temperatures for my processor:  they display 91 degrees C.  In coretemp this shows as "91C(?)"  Has anyone else had this issue?  I know the CPU is not that hot, and upon rebooting the issue usually goes away.  System specs below:
    # Intel 3960x overclocked to 4.5 GHz (all voltages set to auto)
    # MSI X79-GD65 (D8) with v1.3 bios
    # G.Skill F3-17000CL11-4GBZL x 8 sticks = 32 GB running at 1600 MHz (auto settings in bios)
    # Nvidia Quadro FX 4600, 768MB ram
    # OCZ Vertex 3 120GB boot drive, Seagate ST1000DM003-9YN1 1TB storage drive
    # Windows 7 x64
    # Corsair TX750W power supply
    FWIW, the auto cpu voltage is set to 1.368V.
    Thanks,
    DrDet

    This behavior has been noted by several users. In the last reply I had from MSI Tech Suppport, MSI & Intel are in communication with each other over what appears to be a CPU microcode problem. It also surprises me the Auto V. is setting 1.368v's with 1.35v's being the recommended industry limit for the LGA 2011 CPU, with a published absolute maximum of 1.400v's in Intel's latest product datasheet. Quite a bit lower than it's Sandy B. cousins. Anyway, it is being officially looked into, so all we can do is wait & see what develops.

  • Msi gtx970 gaming new vbios NV316MH.126

    Today, live update program  tell me that there is a vbios update...my installed version is NV316MH.125
    Do i really need this update?
    What are the changelog...

    A number column like "84.04.1F.00.F1" is no real vbios version despite gpu-z's wrong listing. These numbers can cover various versions even legacy and UEFI/GOP. Only the MSI version is relevant.

    MSI doesn't document changes in vbios versions so nobody except for an MSI bios engineer can tell you. If not especially released for a certain purpose (e.g. to fix a common issue) most users won't even notice any difference. If you want to ask MSI do so: >>How to contact MSI.<<

  • What MSI afterburner to use for GTX 660TI PE

    Hi,
    I am little confused now about what version of MSI afterburner i should use, i assumed my GTX 660TI power edition need 2.2.3 to get fully voltage unlock but i also read that 2.2.4 is the better one and that gives me complete voltage control.
    If that is true, where can i get 2.2.4? I looked all over the Internet but could not find it.
    Thnx in advanced.

  • Msi p45 can detect 2tb hdd ?

    Quote
    bcoz i see the bios v1.5 say can detect 1tb only
    No, it does not say, that the Board/BIOS can "only" support 1TB hard drives.  The note in the changelogs means that compatibility problems with certain 1TB drives were fixed with this BIOS Release.  My P45 Platinum had no problem with 1TB hard drives even with the very first BIOS Release (v1.0).
    Quote
    can my msi p45 platinum detect it ?
    It should be able to properly detect it (there is no official limit on hard drive sizes on the chipset or BIOS Level).  In any case, I cannot remember any user who has actually tested 2TB hard drives on this board (in fact I even doubt MSI has tested 2TB hard drives (when the board came out, 2TB hard drives were not really popular yet)).  That is why you will have a hard time to find a user that will be able to answer you question from his/her own experience.
    Currently, the only possible answer to your question is:  It should work in theory.  To find out if it works in practice, try it and see.

    I've been having quite a bit of trouble with my MB/BIOS being unable to push the OC beyond 38/3.8GHZ and the RAM won't go further than 1600MHZ.. Now i was able to do this before (Had a stable 4.4GHZ with 2133MHZ RAM speed.. i'm not quite sure what's stopped me from being able to OC more than these stated values, however in ClickBIOS i can OC higher than i can in the BIOS menu on startup itself but the settings don't apply correctly

  • MSI 785GTM-E45 BIOS CPU fan voltage control

    Hello MSI gurus,
    I've replaced the MB in an older HP media center with the MSI 785GTM-E45 running BIOS V8.8 out of the box.
    CPU = Athlon 64 X2 4200+
    My problem is the stock CPU fan has a 3 pin connection (voltage controlled) and is running at 100% speed all the time.  From what I've read on the forums there are a number of people that have this issue (with other MBs with 4 pin cpu fan headers) and don't want to switch to a 4 pin CPU fan (PWM controlled).  I am in the same situation.
    I am hoping that there is a BIOS for this board that has an option to switch to or enable voltage control on the CPU fan header.
    I have tried enabling the CPU smart fan target but no matter what settings I chose the fan remains at 100%.  The H/W monitor of the MB indicates a CPU temperature (33C) well below the target (tried all options from 40C to 60C in 5C increments). 
    I have tried MSI's dual core center and it had no effect on the fan speed.
    I have tried the 3rd party freeware SpeedFan and if had no effect on the fan speed.
    I am not able to check if I have the latest BIOS or even find changelogs for existing BIOS verions because MSI seems to only direct BIOS downloads for this product to the Live update application.  I have installed the live update program and it indicated V8.8 was the most recent veriosn of the BIOS for this board, although I have seen posts indicating the Live Update application is not to be trusted.
    Dual core center, SpeedFan, and Live Update have all now been uninstalled.
    I know the fan I'm using will change speed because I can connect a 3 pin fan controller and manually dial down the speed.
    I know the BIOS can read the fan speed becase it correctly shows the RPM changes when I use the hardware fan controller.
    Can anyone direct me to a BIOS version for this board (or some secret keystroke) that enables automated 3 pin voltage control on the CPU fan header?
    Thanks in advance for your time.

    For those who are interested I received the following answer from MSI technical support.  Personally I find this to be a flaw in this board's design.  I chose this MB to replace a dead MB in a HP media center for a friend.  If I was buying this board for myself I likely would be using it as a HTPC because of the mATX form factor, HDMI on board, and backward compatibility for CPUs.  However, due to the added cost of purchasing a new heat sink and fan I would be RMAing if I had bought it for myself.  Considering many of the top performing after market coolers still come with a 3 pin fan it was a poor decision for MSI to not include support for automatic speed control of a 3 pin voltage controlled fan.

    We are sorry that because of the circuit designs,we could not add cpu smart function for 3 pin's connector fan in the BIOS. The difference between 3pins and 4pins is that the second has a temperature controller but the first does not.We would suggest you utilize a 4-pin CPU Fan in order to control the CPU Fan speed.
    Sorry for any inconvenience caused you!
    Best regards,
    MSI Technical Support Team
