Please provide your full system configuration. >>Posting Guide<<
You can play COD2 in single player mode? If so, then I would think that you have a game set-up problem with the mutli player mode.
Just do a search on the net for that error message and you will see you are not alone. Go to the game manufacturers site and check for game updates. It could also be related to direct X installation.
Hi, i think could be a drivers problem, i just replaced my motherboard and processor only and i never had any problem before...
Cod 2 should run perfectly on Windows XP but i have the same crash problem...

First PC Build: MSI P67A-G43 - Can't Boot From Windows 7 DVD

MB: MSI P67A-G43
HD: Seagate 1TB
DVD: HP 1260
CPU: Intel i5 2500K
I just built my first PC. In the BIOS I had it set to boot first from my DVD drive that has a 64-bit version of Windows 7 loaded. No matter what I tried, I received the message: "Reboot and Select Proper Boot Device"
So I have been on the phone with technical support, and they suggested I download a driver update, which I found HERE.
I have tried installing both the driver and the BIOS updates, but every time it says that the boot from the pen drive failed and to check the USB drive and ROM.
I've looked for answers all over the web, but the only ones I find assume that you've previously had Windows installed. This is a first boot though, and I really don't know what to do next. Can anyone help with this?
thanks!

If anyone would like to take a look at these OC settings that are default with my board as to a reason why it wouldn't be booting from the DVD drive or accepting the RAM, I would appreciate it.

MSI P67A-G43 (B3) LGA 1155 Intel P67 wont BOOT!

My pc
PSU:Ultra 650w

Video Card:ATI 6950 GIGABYTE 2GB.

Explanation
I recently changed my motherboard from gigabyte+amd 955(worked flawlessly) to an intel core i7 2600k and the current mobo, i kept all the previous components and now i am having trouble booting up my pc. It starts and all the comps seem to work no beep but the monitor LED turns off and on and there is not even a "no signal" notice therefore i dont think its my video card causing the issue.
What could it be? I heard that CPU is the least faulty component.
Is the memory compatible or should i switch? worked fine on previous build.
Or is it the mobo?

Thanks for the help it happens that it was my dumb monitor not working in hdmi or dvi controller. Funny cause the component works fine on my ps3.....
So no problem whatsoever just my monitor worned out and needs to rma because its been only 1 year.
But before you leave i had to remove the cpu to check if i put it right... and maybe some thermal contact worn off a little bit because the motherboard bios in the OC section is displaying 55 degrees celcious is that normal(the bar reaches red section)? Room temp 74 degrees. also hardware monitor displays 40 degrees celcious each core Which one should i believe.

MSI P67A-G43 (B3) - Need help identifying this postcode

Need help identifying this postcode:
CPU:i7-2600k
Mobo:MSI P67A-G43 (B3)
PSU: Corsair 750w
GPU isn't the problem since I replaced it and still get this postcode. RAM isn't the problem since I've tried four different sticks one at a time in each slot and still get the postcode. Getting no live video from the GTX580 and no onboard video. I think either the mobo or the CPU is the problem, don't want to have to send both in for RMA so if anyone can help me identify the postcode that'd be great.

Hey Ctrl
Well I happen to have the same beep code on my motherboard (P67A-C43 B3), after trying different suggestions from the MSI forum users and MSI technical support I ended up RMA(ing) my motherboard.
You can try resetting the CMOS, by flipping the battery and leaving it like that for 5 minutes and putting it back to its original side. I highly doubt it is your cpu. Like anybody in the forum might suggest, try different components which appears you already did. I doubt your corsair is faulty. CPU and motherboard are your best bet that are faulty, and i highly doubt that it is the CPU because for there to find another person (you) that had the same problem as me since last friday (RMA board yesterday, wednesday) I find it highly unlikely.

MSI P67A-G43 (B3) Won't Finish Boot after KK1 VBIOS!!!!! Win 7 x64

I recently installed the bios updates using the MSI Update and now the computer won't fully boot!!!! I tried clearing CMOS like 3 times and nothing! It makes it to the starting windows screen with the spinning dots but only the first red dot shows up and it freezes, even the repair windows freezes at the black screen.. The Bios live update also freezes at the black screen. PLEASE HELP!!!

MSI P67A-G43 (B3) Boot Password - How to reset?

I am currently locked out of my MSI P67A-G43 (B3) machine, due to a bootup password. Recovering the password is not an option, I want to reset it.
I have already attempted clearing the CMOS (both with the jumper pad and with the button), and neither appears to have worked. The password has persisted through the reset. The ClickBIOS has not been updated since the board was purchased, which was one year ago.
Any help?

Other than advice already given we do not assist in attempts at bypassing or hacking BIOS/system passwords. Reason being we have no way of knowing if parts are stolen or not or whatever reason you can't use the original p'word that was entered.
If you want to you can ask MSI for further assistance but this forum can't help with that.

MSI B85-G43 and i5-4460

Hello
I'm planing to buy a new computer set with that motherboard MSI B85-G43 and i5-4460. On official MSI site I read Haswell-Refresh processors
are supported from Bios v3.7. There is my question here. Will the i5-4460 boot with a MSI B85-G43? I mean can I able to enter to BIOS and update it with a new version?
I don't have an older processor which work and supported on 100% on this motherboard.

Thanks for answer and I think I will take standard Haswell instead Haswell Refresh. I don't want to have any problems. i5-4570 should be fine.
Anyway or btw. Is RAM memory Crucial Ballistix 2x4GB (BLS2CP4G3D1609DS1S00CEU) supported on this motherboard? I didn't see them on list (maybe is out of date) so I want to ask before buy.
edit// I found Crucial Ballistix is supported https://pcpartpicker.com/parts/memory/?compatible_with=msi-motherboard-b85mg43

I bought a MSI Z77A-G43 and 1st PCIE(3.0 I guess) slot doesn't work?

I bought a MSI Z77A-G43 and 1st PCIE (3.0 I guess) slot doesn't work? I mean when I put my gf card in it , my screen wont start. BUt when I put it to other blue Pcie (2.0 I guess) it works. What will be the reason? Do I need to do anything in bios ?

I had a similar situation recently.
1.) Check the cpu/ socket for damage
2.) Remove the mobo and make sure there are no extra stand off's under the board.
3.) Check the pci/e slot for obstruciton or debris
Other than that it's probably going to be an rma issue.

MSI P67A-G43 b3 Fan Control ?

http://www.msi.com/product/mb/P67A-G43--B3-.html#/?div=Detail
my board has - CPU x 1 / System x 4 FAN connectors
I have a CPU fan and 3 system fans connected. CPU fan is plugged into the CPU fan I/O
the 3 system, fans are plugged into #1, #2 and #3 fan ports.
so here is my dilemma. For some reason only my CPU fan and fan 1 and fan 2 or recognized. I can adjust their fan speed as i need to with no problems.
But anything i plug into port #3 or #4 is not recognized for fan control. I have swapped out which fans are plugged into all 4 system fan ports but they dont show up as even being installed when i plug them into #3 or #4. any fan i plug into the 1 or 2 spot is seen and can have speed adjusted.
Anyone know what may be causing this?

There is no monitoring or control for those fan headers, its just a power header. Most MBs only allow control for CPU and Sys #1 and # 2 at most.
If you wish to control more fans, you will need an aftermarket fan controller.

Freezing issues with MSI 970A-G43 and AMD FX 8320

Hey all,
I bought my brother a new system a few days ago, but he has had serious issues with the machine crashing ever since.
The machine has had a fresh installation of Windows 7, it has all the latest drivers for both motherboard, sound, chipset and video card (Latest VGA driver tested as well as the latest Beta version)
I thought the problem might be with the VGA card, as the computer would just shut off during 3d Gaming, but it also seems to happen when surfing the internet or doing normal "2d" activities
What happens is the computer will just seemingly shut off, the LED lights on the front of the case, around the dials, start blinking and the only way to get it back up again, is to turn if off at the power supply unit and then turn it back on again.
I'll paste in what my brother sent me (As I live in the UK and can't see the machine crashing myself), he said:
I dunno what the issue is but, last night the comp just shut off in middle of game play on 3 different games, and the lights were flashing, I had to turn complete power off to the power box and back on to restart comp, I kept checking all my temps with speccy and speed fan and nothing seemed high at all, also when it shuts off and I re start it, a lot of my desktop icons move around to different spots,
Update: crashed a few times on me, once playing euro, once just browsing Internet 5 min after the first one, changed out ram just for shots and giggles and ran euro on ultra for about 5 min and crashed. I dl a gpu monitor gadget, was accurate on temp but said the gpu was 0% but with just Internet would randomly jump to 99% or 40% then back to 0 and would stay and eventually crash
Spec is:
AMD FX-8320 3.5GHZ EIGHT CORE
500GB SATA III 6GB/S 7200RPM 16MB
COOLERMASTER SEIDON 120M WATER COOLER
4Gb DDR3 / 1600 MHZ MEMORY
MSI 970A-G43 AMD 970 CROSSFIRE AM3+ DDR3 USB 3.0 SATA
CORSAIR 500 WATTS CX500 V2 80 PLUS POWER SUPPLY
ASUS XONAR DG 5.1 CHANNELS PCI XONAR DG SOUND CARD
AMD RADEON 7750 2GB PCI-E
There was a concern I did have when I did search earlier, via a thread on Tomshardware in which a similiar board had issues with the FX8350's wattage going above the stated 125 watts and causing the board to freeze.
It's a different board/chip, but I wonder if the wattage of the CPU goes above 125W and causes problems on the board? Hmm
I feel really guilty right now, because I bought this for him as a present, it was $700ish plus shipping etc and it's been nothing but problems ever since.
I'm going to see what version of Bios he's running when he gets out of bed, but the Live Update software said there were no updates, but I'll have him check manually.
Another issue I noted, was I sent him some ram before the PC arrived, which was:
XMS3 — 8GB Dual Channel DDR3 Memory Kit (CMX8GX3M2A1333C9)
He originally put that ram in with the existing 4gb of ram, so I thought it "Might" be a conflict, due to them having a different Mhz value
So I had him remove the 4gb stick that came with the PC
As soon as he entered the bios, it froze and did so twice
So he removed that ram and put back the original 4gb stick and the bios worked
No idea if the two are related.

I hope this doesn't count as necro-ing a thread (last post was in October), but it's the one closest to my situation.
I have the following setup:
MSI 970a-g43 motherboard
AMD FX-6300 cpu
ATI Radeon HD 4550 graphics card
4x 2GB RAM sticks
2x 500 GB 3.5" SATA hard drives
CoolMax 700W psu
16x r/rw DVD burner
cheapo SD and others card reader that fits in the floppy drive bay
Older PC tower that has a temperature sensor built into it
I built it around November 15th, and it worked until a couple days ago (December 12th I think), when it started doing the sudden shut-off thing. Same as Adresch described: shuts off, tower light blinks, have to flip the i/o switch off and back on to boot again. I consulted a friend for some suggestions, and he said I should put a water cooler in there, because the stock heatsink that comes with most processors are junk. So I went out and bought a Corsair H55 water cooler and installed that.
The computer seemed to run for a bit longer before shutting off. I loaded up the BIOS software, SpeedFan, and HWMonitor. SF said the CPU was running average of 48*C, and GPU was averaging 51*C. The CPU's highest was at 61*C and its lowest was 36*C. BIOS software said CPU was at 35*C the whole time. HWMonitor listed the GPU at 51*C, and the CPU at 7*C. These are all very inconsistent with each other as far as I can tell, so I don't know what to make of these readings. Didn't seem to much matter as the computer continued shutting off.
My options then being replacing the PSU or the motherboard, I decided to replace the power supply, since I was just within the 30 days. Switched for a ThermalTake TR2 700W. Before installing it, I pulled the tower's CPU temperature sensor wire from between the water cooler heatsink and the CPU, just in case. Then I installed the PSU, checked and rechecked all of the connections, and turned it on.
Nothing.
I then spent the next two hours rechecking everything, even unplugging everything and putting it back together. Still nothing. The best I could get was a flicker of the tower light and the fans doing a quarter turn before ceasing movement. The red LED on the front of the SD card reader stayed on the entire time, though, so I guess it was getting at least a trickle of power. I also removed everything but the PSU, motherboard, CPU, and one stick of RAM. Still no power. I think the new PSU may have been open box, so I'm returning it today for a different one, and even bumping it up to 850W.
I'm not sure that will solve my original issue though, so I'll be looking for a heatsink to put on the VRMS as mentioned. Just thought I'd get this down in a relevant thread in case anyone had other thoughts on what could be going on.

Spaces and Call of Duty 2?

Hey everyone. I noticed that when I open Call of Duty 2, I can't use spaces. The COD2 application takes up the whole screen and doesn't allow me to use expose, spaces, etc. Is there anyway to make spaces available while I'm using COD2 so that I can easily move out of it if i want? Thanks.

I didn't enable EAX because, for me at least, it always sounds like you're playing the game inside a metal lunchbox. I have both crystalizer and CMSS-3D enable along with the bass boost. I tried disabling each of those one at a time and then all and nothing changed.
I also have FEAR and started it last night to check it out and I didn't notice any problems. I do have some stuttering sound problems with SW Battlefront II. I'm just wondering if it's a hardware/driver bug or something wrong with the games. So far those are the only games I've tried that have had problems.
BTW, I just got the last message from Activision support and after trying a few things they said that that is how the developer intended the sounds to be. I'm not sure about that because a friend with an Audigy 2 card said they sound fine.

WRT54G router and call of duty online gaming

I just bought the WRT54G wireless router and had no problem installing it. I was able to get internet connection on the wired desktop and the wireless laptop. However, when I start playing 'Call of Duty 4' online, within a couple of minutes I start to lose internet connectivity until it completely goes out. At the same time, I will lose connectivity on my laptop as well. In one iteration of fixing this problem, my laptop displayed a message that said something about an 'IP address conflict'.
I called tech support and tried a few different changes in configurations, including changing the MTU to 1400 and creating a static IP address in the 'Accessibility and Gaming' section of the Linksys configurations.
I read several other posts that mention a gaming wireless router (WK300TN or something like that). Do I need that even if I'm gaming on the wired desktop and not on the wireless laptop? Help!

yes WRT310N, WRT330N etc are build for good performance in gaming. Those would definitely improve situation.

MSI H77MA-G43 AND INTEL 2ND GEN

Hello,
i have made a budget pc for a friend with the following config:
MSI H77MA-G43
INTEL I5 2400
MSI GTX 550 TI
I have installed all the drivers but i can´t get any audio or ethernet. I've read about this and i come to a conclusion that might be some problems of compatibility between h77 chipsets and 2nd generation intel processors, since h77 chipsets ware made for 3rd gen. processors.
I've already change bios, installed the latest drivers and updates the chipset controller, but nothing. Anyone can help me or do i have to change the board for a P67 chipset???
Thanks in advance,

The board runs fine with an i5-2400 and bios 1.70:
http://www.msi.com/service/download/bios-19052.html
Audio is already working with default Windows driver.
Make sure you've selected your speakers in the Playback Devices menu in Windows. It might use the VGA audio at the moment.
LAN is running fine with the Realtek driver: http://www.msi.com/service/download/driver-2697.html
What ME version is the board running on? You can check that in the Settings->System Status menu.

MSI P67A-GD65 and other 1155's whine

Hello MSI and community.
Recently I decided to build a PC especally for minimun noise.
I waited a long time for the B3 boards so I wouldn't have to go through the trouble of returns. Sadly this didn't work out.
First of all I ordered the cheapest and first mobo(gigabyte ph67-ud-b3) that was relesed. Soon as I plugged it in and Windows 7 got to boot screen (from the DVD) it started giving off a high pitched whine.
After alot of research I RMA it and ordered a Asus P8H67-M LX. Loaded it up and thought woohoo no whine, then as soon as windows finishes installing the drivers (first time on windows) of goes the whine again.
I RMA that 1 too and bought the MSI P67A-GD65 advertized as "whistle free" as well as people on another forum saying they didn't hear anything from theirs. This one does the same but I can't keep sending back boards for RMA and want to keep this one so I'm here hoping to try and resolve the issue with MSI.
I have tested these boards with Casecom 500w, ozc gamextream 700w, antec true power 650w and coolermaster pro m 600w with them behind a door to eliminate any fan noise.
MSI GPUS: 8800GS, 8800GTX and 560TI as well as onboard from the h67 board.
I've tried many differant BIOS settings, nothing but disabling C-STATE (fully disabled) effected it. (I havn't manually played with volts)
On the other 2 boards I noticed it seemed to dim when I unplugged all USB devices and in their BIOS it was c3/c6 I had to disable, MSI board doesn't whine as loud as the other 2 but it's more constant but with a morse code type theme to it which seems to be coming from CPU socket whenever the PC is idle, it's equally noisy from either side of the board. It's very annoying and accually gives me a headache as maxium distance.
Alot of people have said their 1155 board don't make a sound but 3/3 for me have so I'm not sure what to think.
I'm currently running with c-state disabled but Turbobooster only seems to go to 25% and slower clock speed on my i5-2500k and I assume for power usage, all things I don't want.
Can you give any information at all? Might it be possible to correct with a BIOS update? I'm open to any suggestions and will keep checking back here.
Hope you will be able to work with me on this issue.
Thank you in advance, I've prefered to go with MSI all my computering life.
Paul

Used the same CPU cooler on all three? That would be my wild guess.
I test it fanless of course but no I have used mutiple heat sinks aswell.
Quote
What's wrong with throttling down at idle or low usage? Who sits at a stop light with the engine at full throttle?
I'm not too sure what disabling C-state accually does but when running Orthos I saw speed was at 3.6ghz instead of the 3.3 while disabled.

Contact MSI Tech Support by opening a ticket & ask them. This is a user to user forum, being as such, MSI will most likely never read your thread.
Thanks, I didn't realize that.
