MSI H61M-P31 (G3) Motherboard will work with intel i3?

I have a MSI H61M-P31 (G3) Motherboard and I am wondering if I can use Intel Core i3 3220 Ivy Bridge Dual Core Processor with it?
will I need to update my bios if so how do I do that?

So yes you need to update the bios to at minimum 2.4
I have attached the latest for you.
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
Use option 1 and point the tool at the compressed archive. (Do not decompress or extract the files)
Then point the tool at your fat32 formatted flash drive.
Boot to the usb and proceed with the flash.
also another question can I get Intel CPU Core i3 2120 Sandy Bridge without updating because it's a Sandy Bridge?

  • What interface will work with Intel MacBookPro?

    Hi--
    I just got a replacement from Apple for the first MBP I bought earlier this year which was defective. I really like this one, but as I use it for audio recording professionally (voice over auditioning and want to use it for ISDN later), I have heard that there are many compatibility issues with the 15" Core2Duo MBP ---interfaces which will not workcorrectly. Is anyone here using similar equipment as I have with success? I am now using a Sennheiser 416 ,a Samson mixer,an imic into the USB port which does work--but I want to be able to get the value from the Sennheiser so need a better audio interface. I would appreciate any suggestions.
    Thanks, MB

    Blearyeyes,
    Are your virtual instruments loaded on, and streaming off, this external drive?
    Just curious, because TC Electronic's Support Dept. wrote me a response to that same question and said that set-up was unlikely to work with the new MacBook Pro Core 2 Duos. Here's the quote (typos and all -- I just copied and pasted):
    "with regards to the available bandwidth of the Firewire standard, it depends what you do with it. If your HD is just connected for backup reasons it should work. If you use it for streaming lots of samples for virtual instruments or many audiofiles, you might run into issues. Same i you use other Firewire devices on top.
    On our G4 notebook we have here in support i can run the Konnekt together with a Powercore FIWI without any issues.
    Best,
    Mike"
    Kind of a nice dance around a fairly important topic, don't you think?

  • Does T420 will work with Intel 520 180GB SSD?

    Hi
    Is there any chance I can see my t420 (4236qs6) working well with Intel 520 180GB SSD SATA 3 drive?
    I am wondering because of a spec note for my machine I saw on lenovo site:
    Solid state drive features
    Standard 80GB, 128GB, 160GB solid state drive sizes.
    Thanks,
    Eugene
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello ladjack,
    The specs are for the capacity of the SSD.  The ones listed on the support site are only the sizes available from the lenovo shop site.  The SSD you plan on buying will work fine with the computer.  The only thing is that the SSD you have chosen is a SATA 3.0 drive and the computer runs its drive speed at SATA 2.0.  Your SSD will run fine but will be limited to SATA 2.0 speeds. 
    It will work great in the T420.
    Hope this helps,
    Alex

  • Installing a HD 7870 XT 2GB GDDR5 with Boost graphics card on a MSI H61M-P31 G3

    Hi,
    I have a MSI H61M-P31 (G3) motherboard in my PC and I recently purchased a HD 7870 XT 2GB GDDR5 with Boost graphics card. Before purchasing as far as I could tell the graphics card was compatible with the motherboard. However, what seems to be a similar issue with a lot of people installing new graphics cards is that when I put it in my PC and boot it up the monitor doesn't recieve any signal from it and stays blank. I have installed the drivers, including the optional ones, and they don't compete with my old graphics card drivers because they are the same AMD Catalyst Control Centre. I have trawled the internet and tried numerous things but nothing has worked. Is there a fix or are the componenets just not compatible?
    Thanks in advance.

  • [p7-1240] How can I tell which graphics cards will work with my motherboard?

    I recently went through the nightmare of trying to install a Gigabyte GTX 650 in my PC. After a few days of struggling and scouring the internet for answers, I discovered that it is incompatible with the BIOS on my motherboard, and HP does not offer BIOS updates. I returned the card and am now looking for a new one, but I am unsure of which cards will work now, since my computer met all of the system requirements for the graphics card, and It stil ldid not work. Since GPU manufacturers do not list BIOS specs under system requirements, how can I tell if a graphics card will work with my sytem?
    My computer is a p7-1240 with an upgraded 520W PSU and approximeately 11" of room to install the card.
    This question was solved.

    Thexn, welcome to the forum.
    The problem is, many of the newer video cards require the computer to have a full UEFI BIOS.  HP began using one in mid-October, 2012.  Before this date the BIOS is Legacy.  This is why the video card didn't work with your computer.
    I don't know what you want to spend for a card, but MSI makes a GTX 750ti that has a hybrid VBIOS.  It has a switch to change to Legacy or UEFI.  There is a video link directly below the picture of a card.  Paul from Newegg gives a full description of the card.
    I like EVGA cards the best.  Their Tech Support has given me a lot of information about their cards.  However, you have to go back to a GT 640 card to find one of their cards that doesn't require the UEFI BIOS.  They do have some updates for their BIOS'es that solve the problem, but you have to call them for the exact cards.

  • DKA790GX Platinum - What's the best card that will work with hybrid crossfire?

    Hi everyone. I know this board is a bit old now but I've set it up for my kids to play oldish games and it occurred to me that video cards from that era might be inexpensive these days. What's the best possible card to use with the on-board card for its hybrid crossfire? Would it be better to just get a separate standalone card? If so what's the best that will work with this board? I'm completely out of the loop these days on tech and have no idea what will even be compatible anymore.

    Quote from: KrisWood on 12-June-12, 00:27:34
    Good news! I resolved my graphics issues without buying a new card. It all came down to a little logic. It used to work just fine. The game it's installed off the same disc as before, and there us no noticeable change in the install media. The hardware has not changed unless there has been some sort of electrical damage I cannot see. I had however updated my drivers many times over the last few years, and always from the AMD website.
    I installed the latest MSI drivers for my onboard graphics and voila, it works!
    All graphical glitches are now gone, though it runs a but slower.
    I may still buy a new card. I'm favouring the HD4870x2 as the top of my motherboard's era or the slightly newer HD5770 which some reviews say is equivalent in performance. The latter uses the same GPU and shaders as the 6770 and is considerably cheaper.
    If I go with NVidia it seems the best card in my price range is the 440GT.
    Thanks, everyone, for all the advice!
    i'd say the 790GX chipset would run a saphire radeon HD5770 card fine i have 1 of them on a different maufactures board that uses the AMD 690GX chipset and i have put both my HD5770's in that with crossfire on and had no issues at all just to try it out!
    and the AMD 690GX is a lower more old chipset then the one your board has so i wouldnt see any issues with the board not accepting the HD 5770 cards at all!
    i like the saphire branded ones better as they run much cooler and quieter then a stock card!

  • Window 10 build 10041 does not work with Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet on ASUS motherboard

          
    I originally posted this question here:
    answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_update/window-10-build-10041-does-not-work-with-intel/6729892f-83aa-4822-b20a-ea84f4fd06c7
    and was asked to post it on this forum...
    I updated a computer I have which is a quad core i7 that I built and includes an ASUS motherboard with Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet built in. Windows 10 preview 9926 worked fine with this network adapter. Window 10 build 10041 does not, and I have tried
    it twice so far. I even went as far as buying a Thunderbolt-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (Broadcom, sold by Apple)... and while it installed the driver automatically, it did not work either. Each time you try to view the properties of either of them, it locks
    up or give an error. In fact, doing much of anything with the Intel adapter icon assures you of not being able to do a clean reboot... have to kill power.  I have finally gone back the previous version 9926, which has its issues but no where near as bad
    as not having any network connectivity!  Does anyone have this issue and a workaround? 
    Note, there are two images on the windows 10 preview forum that I posted this question on. I could not post the full link as I was getting a message here that links and graphics are not allowed.

    Thanks Roger, I posted the following yesterday in the other thread (thinking it was this thread - confusing after they moved it here)... It may be that the new driver fixes the issue that 10041 has with it, but I have not tried that yet. If I do I will update
    this... Thanks!
    I have more information about this, which basically exonerates any issue with the Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet hardware or software. I have 3 computers with Windows 10 preview so I have multiple angles to see issues from. With this I have found a culprit
    (but I suspect not just the only culprit) in this above mentioned problem...
    10041 build combined with installing (or attempting to install) CISCO VPN Windows 7 64bit 5.0.07.0440-k9 client causes the issue mentioned above. I confirmed this on a completely different machine with a totally different Ethernet adapter. First machine
    is an ASUS motherboard in a tower system I built, with the Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet hardware built in. Second machine is a Gateway Laptop from 2008 which has a Marvell Yukon 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit adapter built in. Build 10041 will work fine with my 2008
    laptop, including the MS VPN client (which I have tested). However, if you attempt to install or even uninstall the Cisco client you will have to do a recovery to a restore point (as I have done twice) in order to get your network working again. Installing
    or attempting to install (because it never even does install properly and times out), CISCO VPN client will render your entire network unusable. Going back to a restore point saved me and I am still running 10041 but I can't use CISCO VPN client any longer.
    I could with build 9926, including on all 3 machines. I now have 9926 on two machines and 10041 on only the 2008 laptop. 
    Hopefully this above information helps someone resolve the issue. I will also mention, even though my network is working on the 2008 laptop, I still can't go into the Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections and right mouse click on the Marvell
    Yukon 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit adapter icon. I get an error when clicking on Properties menu popup : "An unexpected error has occurred". So something is still up with my network adapter driver or windows software, but it could be a side effect of all
    that has happened with the Cisco software install attempts under 10041.
    Another note: CISCO Anyconnect also has the issue.

    If the new Mac-Mini does not put out analog video and Apple does not state this, what monitors will work with it?

    I was able to get an Apple Studio Display to work via the adapter in the Mac Mini box combined with that huge DVI to ADC adapter they had sold me years ago. In the Apple Store I really had to press them to assure me my display would work as they told me they'd charge me a re-stock fee if I had to bring the Mini back. I pressed the point that Apple should know if a monitor it made works with a computer it made. The rep asked around and we both searched the web and then she was able to confirm it would work. They really need a list of acceptable monitors. If anyone locates such a list, please let us all know!

  • I need to install an App that will work with my iOS. How do I get an earlier App that is not now in the App Store?

    I have an iPod Touch that can only run iOS 3.1.3. I have had Zinio & PressReader (both free Apps) installed on it for many years, and subscribe to a number of Magazines and Newspapers. I had backed up the iPod in September 2012. Today, I had to restore the iOS from the backup, but saw that Zinio and PressReader had not been installed. I am aware that the iTunes store explains that the latest versions are for iOS 4.3, but I need the latest version that will work with my iPod on iOS 3.1.3.
    Does anyone know how I can get hold of the earlier versions of the "ipa" files, short of asking the publishers themselves?
    And, should I expect the Publishers to release the appropriate ipa to me?

    You aren't being left in any lurch. Your hardware is obsolete, and the software world has moved on. If you have a qualm about the matter then discuss it with the software's developers. Apple is not responsible for software they do not develop. This is technology, and you will just need to get used to it.

Even got my wife to use hers for checking email while we were out of the country (big step forward for her ). I'm very interested in the ApplePay, but will want to wait a bit before diving into it. And since both phones are still in great working order, will likely wait a bit for the upgrade (sometime next year?). Will depend, I suppose, on the kinds of deals we see and what the plans turn out to be for updating my iPad and getting here one.

    There seems to be a problem, just now, with the USB 3 ports on the new MBP's supporting eternal USB 3 drives. Some people have no luck at all - can't even recognize the drive - and some are reporting USB 2 speeds (those who drives are recognized). I'd call a dealer such as LaCie or OWC to see if they have USB 3 drives that actually work with MBP's with USB 3 ports. You may have to wait for a software/firmware update.
