MSI Gaming App Not Working - Fails to open after install - Want to use OC mode

Hi, well today I just recovered my GPU from a near fry using MSI Afterburner. Luckily, with help from a moderator on this site, I was able to get it working again. I thought I fried it trying to OC it. I simply want to be able to switch between the modes it is supposed to come with. I have a MSI R9 290, and it is supposed to be equiped with 3 easy "one click" toggling between OC modes, 1007MHz, Gaming mode, 974MHz, and Silent Mode, 947MHz.
I cannot figure out how to switch between these modes. I used Afterburner and nearly fried my card. I was told not to use that, that is for advanced users, to use instead the (supposed to be bundled, but was not included in my install) MSI Gaming App, to easily switch between the 3 different modes. I downloaded the MSI Gaming App (http://download.msi.com/uti_exe/gamingApp.zip) and installed it. When I tried to run it I get this error:
======
[MSI Gaming App]
The platform does not support this application
(OK)
======
So what does this mean, that the Gaming App is not supported by Windows 7 64Bit Professional (which is what I have)?
Am I doing something wrong, did I install the wrong application. I could not find any others however.
So I damn near fried my GPU trying to use Afterburner to OC my GPU, and I am very hesitant to try using it again. At this point, I have not even reinstalled Afterburner as I fear it might, just by installing, screw me up again.
What should I do, is there anything I CAN do?
Please help this noob- Thanks for your help!

based on S/N the card is generic, AMD reference one
those cards don't have factory OC:

I'm having this issue as well only with a little different twist I guess. I'm transferring the iWorks applications from my Macbook Pro 3,1 with Lion to a new MBP 10,1 running Mountain Lion. I transferred the apps over using DropCopy since the older MBP doesn't have AirPlay. Applications show up but crash upon opening. This is the first install so there are no previous plist, versions or such to delete. All three crashed upon opening every time until I just had to have Keynote and purchased again - although Apple agreed to refund that purchase since my previous version quit working. Any ideas since I don't have any previous plist/versions to delete? Thanks in adavnce for any help you can offer.

GTX 960 OC Gaming app not working

Hey there. MSI Gaming app is not working, says The platform does not support this aplication. Any ideas how to fix it? Latest driver from nvidia.
http://postimg.org/image/mwdsaxjwr/

The easy answer is that your platform indeed does not support the Gaming APP. GTX 960 2GD5T OC is no Gaming series vga (unlike GTX 960 GAMING 4G). It does not offer profiles like the Gaming card does.
Same goes for the board (which is part of NIGHTBLADE B85C I suppose).

MSI Gaming App not showing GPU

could you check the history of what you updated last time?
could your post your screenshot of the GPU information in MSI Gaming App ?

Aperture fails to open after installing Photoshop CS5

Aperture fails to open and I cannot access my photo files. This happened after I installed Photoshop CS5. I uninstalled CS5, and have not reinstalled. I uninstalled Aperture and reinstalled it but nothing changed.
I searched the forums and could not find anything similar.
Aperture is stored on my hard drive, my iBook and on an eternal hard drive as well. On my iBook there are 5 Aperture aliases (and the Aperture Library), which I don't understand.
Is there anybody with advice on this matter?
Thanks,
Patricia

Patricia,
Below some of your posts, but not all, your system configuration is listed as a Power PC G4 with 10.4.2 -- you should eliminate this info.
When you had CS5 installed, and in Aperture Preferences/Export, was Photoshop CS5 offered as a choice for external editor, or could you not get that far?
It might be that you would only need to purge the preference file for Aperture to make this work, and I would not have really expected CS5 to not work. Did you have another app for use as External Editor before installing CS5?

Notes app not working properly on 3GS after 4.2.1 update

The Notes app no longer works properly on iPhone 3GS after update to iOS 4.2.1 the other day.
Now when in Notes app, found that I went into a Note, edited it and then couldn't leave it - the navigation has disappeared, so cant get out of the note back to the list. Only way out of the note is to press the Home button and exit Notes.

Wow...I also just noticed I have songs that also are not showing up. Should I just do a restore?

All Apps not working except for Apple pre-installed Apps

Last night I installed a couple of new apps from the app store and a few podcasts through iTunes (using sync). Phone worked fine afterwards, including the new apps I installed. This morning I noticed that when I try to run an app it starts to load and then immediately closes and returns to the phones main screen. After trying to launch several different apps, I realized that the only apps that will run are those which came pre-installed with the phone. None of additional apps (free or purchased) will run. Has anyone ran into this problem? I have tried resetting the phone, no change. The only other thing I can think of is to restore my phone from the back-up. Could this be a virus? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

There's another thread on the same problem here -- http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2226619&tstart=15
I've been able to solve the problem (short term basis, it does re-occur) by deleting a purchased app (any app, even a free one) then repurchasing it from the phone.
You do need a data connection (3G or WiFi) for this to work, of course.
This is very much a kludge. I hope Apple can get this fixed, it really is a PITA, especially if you are travelling and use the phone as a PDA and phone.
I hope this helps.

Can I use the MSI Gaming App OC settings in Afterburner then uninstall Gaming Ap

Hello all,
I finally bought an MSI GTX 760 TF OC Gaming Edition GPU last week. Unfortunately the OC isn't programmed into the BIOS and to get the highest Factory OC I need to use the MSI Gaming App. The problem is it does not start with Windows or remember your last Clock Selection.
I know Afterburner can start with Windows and apply your last selected profile.
So can I......
1. Open Gaming App and select OC.
Open GPU-Z and see how much the Clock Speed has increased.
Restore the default Clock (Gaming).
Open Afterburner and apply the same increase to the clock value as the Gaming App gave me.
Save the profile.
Tick the 'Start with Windows' box.
Uninstall the Gaming App.
2. Will the above effectively apply the same OC as the gaming App and therfore make the Gaming App obsolete?
3. Also I've read on some forums that Afterburner will only OC the MSI card if the gaming App is installed. I'm away from home so cannot test any of this. Maybe this was the case with the original version of the gaming app. can anyone confirm?
4. Also I've read people reporting that once the OC has been applied it is locked at this high clock and doesn't downclock when idle. From what I've seen the Gaming App does downclock depending on GPU demand. As does Afterburner. Can anyone confirm?
I don't know why MSI did things this way. It's a Gaming Edition card so there should be a way of applying the factory OC and leaving it set that way. The Gaming App is a nice simple little tool but as a bare minimum they should let us start it with Windows and automatically apply the last selected Clock profile.
Dragging the shortcut into the start-up folder doesn't work for me. And even if it did, the last profile selection is not remembered.
To be honest, the Gaming App is ideal for me but only if I can set it and forget it. There should be a box (like there is in Afterburner) that starts the Gaming App when Windows starts and applies the last Clock profile selected.
Now that would be simple. Afterburner is great and gives you lots of control. But I just want the OC that MSI have created. It should be set at BIOS level for a so-called OC Gaming Edition card.
From the official Afterburner Guide on this forum....
"Another thing which needs to be kept in mind is that maximum clockrates for the latest GeForce GTX7xx Gaming requires running >>Gaming APP<<. Switch to Gaming Mode (N770 TF 2GD5/OC (GeForce GTX 770 GAMING)) or OC Mode (N780 TF 3GD5/OC (GeForce GTX 780 GAMING)) to allow maximum boost clockrates."
Many thanks in advance,

Sure you can set these settings (clock rate etc) in afterburner and you should be good to go. Just for stability, run a benchmark. It should be same OC as Gaming App applies, but GApp might change voltages (never used it so not sure).
Afterburner works with ANY brand's card. However MSI Gaming App not.
However if you change settings in Nvidia control panel in : 3D settings -> Global Settings -> Power management mode -> change from Adaptive to Prefer max performance. After this card will neved downclock even at idle.

MSI Gaming App default mode ?

I am running a R9 280x. When I first run MSI Gaming App I see 800Mhz displayed. I assume it's in a mode that can throttle between it's lowest and highest capped clock. Once I select a mode, I only get a choice between 1000mhz, 1020Mhz, and 1050Mhz. I can't select the original mode, or rather none of the three available modes, to have it to back to being able to throttle down all the way to 800Mhz. The info seems to suggest Gaming Mode is the default and original mode, but I don't think that's the case since it stays at 1050Mhz when you select that mode. How can I select no mode, or can you add a true default mode button ?

Nvm as it turns out, the way to set it back to normal auto throttle mode is to just completely shut down the MSI Gaming App. I would suggest being able to click on the same mode again to select no mode which would be more intuitive and get people to use the app more and leave it running instead of having to shut it down completely. As soon as I exit the app it drops back down to 500MHz.

MSI Gaming App clocks?

Hi there when I start the MSI Gaming APP it says there are is a choice of these.
OC mode 1080
Gaming Mode 1070
Silent Mode 1050
Cool down 300
So I click on next until It starts then I only get a choice of
OC mode 1050
Gaming mode 1020
Silent mode 1000
Where can I get those other options?
Oh yeah my card is the R9 280X GAMING 3G

Quote from: Svet on 25-January-15, 15:26:19
the suggested clocks are the right for your card:
