Latests nVidia drivers (5.10) are getting me crazy. I have problems with audio (interferences and laggy sound), video (autozoom of my desktop after watching a film at fullscreen). I recommend the 4.xx (xx=cannot remember ), I mean, the prior version to 5.10 for the Mega180 with onboard audio&video.

MSI Live Update - latest version?

Hello all -
I wanted to update to the latest version of MSI liveupdate. I currently have 3.90.
Apparently this version (under windows vista) turns off UAC.
Ok, so I'm prompted to download version 3.92.
All 6 download servers on MSI's site say that they have 3.92, however when I downloaded
from each server, 3.90 is the version that I receive.
Anybody know where i can get 3.92 from?
*if this was posted in the wrong area I apologize..I didn't see any other suitable place for this post*.

You can find Live update download under the 'Utility' tab for your MB at 'MSI Global'.
It's best not to use 'Live Update' especially for BIOS and just manually download whatever it is that you need.
Edit: It seems that some people have had problems with 3.92, maybe it's been dropped from the servers if all you get is 3.90. Not many of us would dare use it but I'm sure someone else knows more about this than I do.

MSI Live update driver question

I have an issue with Live update.
Now i have disabled the on board audio and installed my own sound card.
Before the installation of the new sound card i made sure that all drivers for the on board were uninstalled and i even ran CC Cleaner to get rid of any registry entries that were left.
Now every time i go to live update its asking to download the latest realtek sound drivers and im wondering why?

I think Live update just detecting what mobo you have, and show you the drivers that's compatible.
Just leave it, don't download it.

and the same happend with the VGA Bios...
y fix my vga cad update the VGA bios....but...this update don't show in the Live Update 3
How fix it???
thanks

Do not update the VGA BIOS unless you have a good reason to. It is not like a motherboard.
Go to nVidia Drivers if you want the latest drivers.
Live Update may not have been updated OR the version reported by the Live Update utility has been tested successfully with that card. Newer drivers sometimes cause problems with older cards. The only way to know for sure is got to the nVidia site and try the latest.

Driver Update (Change-logs) MSI-Live Update 6 and Website

I have kinda a request. I am a owner of the Z97 Gaming 9 AC motherboard.
In MSI Live Update 6 I see some updates ready to be installed. The most annoying part is that it isn't notifying the change-logs. Normally I have a rule of (If it ain't broken, don't fix it). Yet some drivers that are update-able, are having my priority. Like a network-driver and audio-driver. And if the changes are adding more efficiency and better overall performance. Then it helps me to make up my mind to either update the drivers or not.
Killer Network Driver (installed : 1.1.47.1058) and now there is a update available to version 1.1.49.1068
C-Media Audio Drivers (installed : 1.00.0013) and now there is a update available to version 1.00.0014)

Ask MSI about it as nobody here on the forum will know: >>How to contact MSI.<<

DualCoreCenter and MSI Live Update 3

I downloaded the DualCoreCenter a while ago, failed to reboot the computer, and it didn't work when I tried to open it. So I uninstalled it and tried reinstalling it, this time rebooting, but it still won't open. I double click on it (in the start up menu and on the desktop), it has the hourglass for a second, then it goes away. It never loads. MSI Live Update 3 gives me the error message "Cannot open file MSI" then opens my Jasc Paint Shop Photo Album. Any help on either problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
Also, while reading the stickies, I saw a program called DriverCleaner, but the link to the free version was broken. Is the free version no longer available? If it is still available, where can I get it from? I have many old drivers (mainly from my old ATI card, now using Nvidia) that I am afraid to get rid of myself. Thanks!

How to update VGA bios in MSI live update.

Hi,
I downloaded MSI live update and i saw that there is a new bios for my card and i downloaded it.
when i go to the folder with the DL-FILE i see that different things are downloaded included nvflash and the rom itself.
Now is my question, can i install the new bios though the MSIsetup in that folder or do i have to do it a different way? I just want to be sure because i don't want to do anything wrong and probably brick my card.
Thnx in advance.

I just flashed the new vbios via MSI live update yesterday, but I have GTX 970, not sure if the procedure is the same or not between different cards.
I just pressed the "download and install" arrow on the right side of vbios size, and live update only allowing me to choose vbios update at one time. After the download finished, it auto executed cmd under windows, and remind me to remove graphics card driver and continue (I did uninstall when I flashing my first card, but for the next one I just closed the nvidia experience), after press twice "Y" in the cmd, the flash began and then system just auto restarted. When my pc rebooted to windows again, I checked the vbios version, it appears the new one.
maybe i should film a video if i got chance

MSI Live Update Installation Causes Windows XP To CRASH!!

I have a MSI K9VGM-V (MS-7253). Product specs are here: http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=K9VGM-V
I have attempted to obtain my updates for my drivers and utilities. MSI uses the Live Update to detect and suggest these for your system. However, I cannot get the software to install to my PC. I have tried to do in through the website AND by downloading it and running it off the hard drive. Each time it gets into the install process and during it - (Boom) - My PC Reboots. When Windows XP (Home Edition) boots up, it says "Windows has just recovered from a serious error." It goes through the reporting to Microsoft process and takes you to their website where it says "You have received a blue screen error. Unfortunatly we were unable to detect what caused this." Then goes on to suggest to restore your files or restore to an earlier state if your system has become unstable (blah blah). Now I really didn't ACTAULLY see a blue screen, the PC just rebooted. I am aware of the blue screen of death and all that. I understand the concept. But I don't know what could be wrong. My system is very basic with little upgrading from me. I have installed all the Windows Critical Updates, so I am now running Windows Service Pack 3. Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be the problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I tell you that.
NOTE: And the following might not have anything to do with my problem but I noticed on MSI's web site, located at this URL: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=utility&maincat_no=1&prod_no=260
they say give a warning about MSI Live Update when installing it to my PC/Board. Look under the MSI Live Update Utility at the "Notes." It says:
"For K9VGM-V (MS-7253) mainboard, please do not select the DMI optopn.
Now I don't know what DMI means except maybe "Definition Multimedia Interface." And I don't get the chance to select any option during the process. If I do, the process hasn't made it that far before my PC crashes, and re-boots. Please, anybody got anything on this? Thank you.

Thank you so much. I just want to say I really appreciate when people do take the time to post me in return. So I really mean it, Thank You.
A quick question. You see, I have been upgrading my computer. I installed a Belkin USB USB Card (high speed 2.0) cause I needed more USB ports. Then I checked for compatable RAM and upgraded my RAM from 512MB to 2Gigs. Everything alright.
Now, I have checked for processors that are compatable with my board K9VGM-V (MS-7253). And MSI's chart says mine is compatable with the AMD Athlon 2x 6000 (3.0Ghz) *IF* I use the 89 watt and not the 125 watt. Here is a good URL for the processor details I found:
http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K8/AMD-Athlon%2064%20X2%206000+%20-%20ADA6000IAA6CZ%20(ADA6000CZBOX).html
Now do you have any tips and I will probably have to flash to BIOS for sure after this upgrade won't I?

MSI Live Update will no longer work after recent update

Recently, MSI Live Update upgraded itself and now errors when a scan is attempted. I can start the application, and the scan appears to occur but does not complete. The error is pretty generic:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
Program C:\Program Files (x86)\MSI\Live Update 6\Live Update.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.
First thing I did was uninstall the tool, delete the directory, reboot and download and install Live Update 6.x from the MSI site. No change. I figured there was possibly a problem with (one of the) C++ Runtime libraries and checked the system requirements on the MSI website, but all it says its needs is the .NET runtime library. I uninstalled it, rebooted, and reinstalled it but still received the same error. Going with the error, I removed all of the C++ libraries (8, 10, and 12 I think), rebooted, and reinstalled them the checked MS for updates. Sadly, this also didn't resolve it.
Error in the application log didn't help:
Faulting application name: Live Update.exe, version: 6.0.12.0, time stamp: 0x54768b62
Faulting module name: Live Update.exe, version: 6.0.12.0, time stamp: 0x54768b62

Yep, the package names were blank.
Searching the forum didn't yield much. Suggestions?

Thanks for the suggestions - still in the same boat.
@jb0nez
what OS you are running? Windows 8.1 x64
what MSI hardware you have?
Board: Z87-G43 GAMING
Bios: American Megatrends v1.9 (7/21/2014)
Intel Core i5-4670 @ 3.40GHz (not overclocked)
OS: Windows 8.1 Pro x64
@jb0nez
I fixed it though--went to Control Panel, Uninstall a Program, found Microsoft .net 4.5.1, hit Change/Uninstall, then clicked Repair. Rebooted after and it was fine.
Windows 8.x has .NET 4.x preinstalled as a part of the OS.
I used DISM.exe which identified a component store corruption (and repaired it). Live Update still errors.
Attempts to install from a .NET runtime returns an error of "A higher version is already installed".
Version of .NET installed: 4.5.51641
I did disable, reboot, and re-enable .NET as a feature but doing so does not revert it back to stock .NET.
I also checked Windows Update after re-enabling it and there were no updates - so its not flushing the binaries if its disabled.
At least I have a direction to start troubleshooting (.NET) - thanks for the tip!
@jb0nez
are you also use the same version? Live Update 6.0.012
@TZBC
Restore points are out - I let this slide too long. If I go that route, I'll be fixing one app to break 10 others.
If I'm going to reinstall the OS, I'll wait until Windows 10 (I'll do a complete wipe at that time). Live Update is a 'nice to have', but its not worth my time to wipe the OS and rebuild the system.

Can't install MSI Live Update 3

Hi
I have a problem installing msi live update. I have tried with the utility cd and downloadet the newest version for MSI.
When I click the exe i run shortly and then disappears. Nothing happens - I can see the Live Update process in the taskbar.
My system are:
P965 Neo F
Core 2 Duo e6600
Does anybody know how to solve my problem?
Kind regards
Ulrik

Hi NovJoe
It is done automatic when using an old version of Live Update.
However, Last night I figured it out
I disabled my security programs and opened Live Update with IE instead of Firefox
I knew it but I was very tired at the time.
Thanx
Kind regards Ulrik

Possible issue with MSI Live Update 5

Hi guys, purchased a brand new MSI R9 280X Gaming 3G GPU from Scan.co.uk just before Christmas.
Whilst playing around with GPUz i happened to notice that my card appears to have had at least one new BIOS for it (possibly two) since release. I downloaded MSI Live Update 5 from your site and ran the tool however it reports my GPU BIOS Version as unknown and doesn't find any BIOS updates for my card.
Just wondering why this would be and if i can get a link to the latest BIOS and instructions on how to manually flash.
My system specs are as follows
AMD FX8350 @ 4.8Ghz 1.55v / Corsair H100 Cooler
ASUS Sabertooth R990FX R2.0
16GB Corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz CL9 @ 1866Mhz CL9,9,9,24-2T
MSI R9 280X Gaming 3G
2 x Sandisk Ultra 256GB SSDs in RAID 0
Fractal Design Define XL R2
If you need any further info please let me know. Thanks

First off this is a Users-to-Users Forum not MSI tech support if you wanted to address them. Don't use LU5 as it is quite buggy. You can't see if there are new vbios versions available as you can't compare gpu-z numbers or such. Different batches of the same model can use different vbios versions which have different (higher or lower) version numbers. A higher version number might be a different not newer vbios. To check your S/N and a copy of your current vbios is required.

MOVED: MSI live update not supported on Win XP 64

This topic has been moved to Operating Systems.
MSI live update not supported on Win XP 64

Yes you are right. The system drive will always be Drive C, but I am not sure if D will be my storage drive or the other sytem drive. I could always try and find out but just havn't.
In the past, I had lots of virtual drives (partitions), and HDD's (as many as 10 total IDE devices). But when the larger drives became more affordable, I prefer running with just 2, the system and storage for the sake of simplicity. Since I do beta testing, I have having to reformat and reinstall a lot, so this system has worked great for me.

MSI Live Update is not working

When i use MSI Live Update to check for BIOS or other things, it gives me a page not found thing. I can use internet though. How can i solve it?

Hi
Try downloading Live update from the download page of this site, it is the latest version. You will see it under VGA - Utilities. It should load and install without problem, save it to a folder for use next time you re install.

MSI Board K9VGM-V (MS-7253): Using MSI Live Update

Available for download is MSI's Live Update. Considering using this to update my BIOS. I am aware about the dangers of flashing. I am trying to be as safe as possible about my upcoming attempt. But look at what it says about my particular board under the "Notes" section of the Live Update download.
http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=utility&maincat_no=1&prod_no=260
It says and I quote "For K9VGM-V (MS-7253) mainboard, please do not select the DMI optopn." (I am sure that last word is supposed to be option).
DMI? What is DMI? I assume it is this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_Management_Interface
So my question is...
What does that mean? What am I supposed to do? Is this DMI some option in the program that I am not to select? Or is this whole Live Update process fall under DMI and people with my board can't use it whatsoever? Am I screwed or what should I do? I am trying to be very careful here.

Quote
I am trying to be as safe as possible about my upcoming attempt.
If that is true, you should under absolutely no circumstances use MSI LIve Update to update your BIOS. There are quite a few threads here in the forum that were opened by users that rendered there K9VGM-V Boards useless because of using such a risky Windows based update application. So please, in your own best interest, forget about MSI Live Update, de-install it completely and stay away from it.
If you really think, that you need to update your BIOS, please be sure that this is really necessery. Flashing a BIOS for no specific reason is not really recommended. Never change a running system!
Please be sure about your current BIOS Version before thinking about a BIOS Update. Maybe your current version is more recent then you think or even the latest one already.
In case a BIOS Update is really necessary, please >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<< for minimum flash risk and easy handling.
