MSI P67A-GD65 killed my USB drives

I recently bought MSI P67A-GD65 and I am having a weird problem: I plugged my seagate usb drive and corsair voyager gt usb flash memory stick into usb 3 port on the motherboard and the stopped working (memory stick is dead and smells burned) and the drive is not recognized as proper usb device anymore - result both of them dead. As I recently used these usb devices only with my computer and a old laptop it looks pretty bad for msi motherboard.
I have a power adapter with shortcut safety and a descent PSU chieftech GPS 650GB, I do not overclock, when I upgraded my PC I replaced motherboard, cpu, memory and graphic card the other components are the same (PSU etc) and I never had the same problem before
No the questions:
1. Did anyone else have the same problem?
2. How can I diagnose it, I am going to replace my usb drives, but how can I be sure I can use them with my PC?
3. If it is a msi's fault how can I get reimbursted for my damaged property?

Why don't you provide the information asked for? So far all you have provided is model of motherboard and other information is so vague it's just about useless.
Again read the >> Posting Guide << and provide required information.

MSI P67A-GD65 hard drive light always lit

I built a new pc with this motherboard a few weeks ago and everything is great except for the hard drive light. It stays dim 100% of the time and does show hard drive activity so i know it's working. I switched the connector on the motherboard to see if it was a polarity issue, but then it doesn't work at all. I even used a different LED that wasn't connected to my case and removed all the other connectors (power, reset, etc) and it still stayed dim. Lastly, i removed all the SATA cables from the motherboard, all fan connectors with no luck. I would appreciate any information on this, and if it's normal or if something is wrong and i should RMA the board.
PS - Bios version is 1.9. I never updated it cause everything has been working as it should.

Quote from: NovJoe on 30-May-11, 15:38:56
You should try the board out of the chassis. You may also want to try it in barebone conditions.
I tried that yesterday. Took it completely out of the case and left everything else off the board except for the ram and it still does it. Also used a separate LED to test that wasn't part of the case. In all the years i've worked on pc's, i've never seen this before. I guess at this point i'll have to live with it or buy another one and send this one back for RMA. I contacted MSI and they replied back with a suggestion to update the bios. This is going nowhere. While it probably won't actually hurt anything, i didn't spend $1500 on a new system to have problems with the motherboard.
Can someone help me test by using their MSI P67A-GD65 (B3) board? Disconnect JUST your power light from the motherboard to make sure no other light is interfering with the hard drive light, and see if it's still dimly lit at around 25% to 30% regardless if you're in the bios, or in windows.
Any help would be greatly appreciated at this point.

BIOS 4.3 half flashed on MSI P67A-GD65 reboot loop ME not installed

Hi, yesterday I tried to flash my bios from 1.19 (1.jo) to 4.3 and I followed the SOP guidelines. Made a flash fat32 got bios on it, started it, stopped all my applications under windows and it went with no error. PC Restarted and now it's in infinite reboot loop. The moment the MSI BIOS logo appears, the PC auto reboots.
If I remove the usb drive or replace the bios file with another version it tells me it's not the file it needs. When I insert the one with the .43 file it goes back to reboot cycle. I tried resetting the CMOS with the button on the mainboard and I have this screen telling me BIOS is 4.3 and it has recognized all my 12gb ram, 2 hard drives and processor. Then it has press F1 to enter setup and press F2 to continue, both options result in reboot.
I tried the 1.JO on flash, but it tells me again that it's the wrong file. Tried renaming it to amiboot as I found somewhere, but to no avail. Tried renaming the .43 to EIVB.bin as it was suggested in one forum, again no luck.
System specs:
OS: Windows 7 64bit
Mainboard: MSI P67A-GD65 (not B3)
CPU: Intel Sandy bridge i5-2500k @3.3ghz
RAM: 2x2gb Kinston 2x4gb Gskill DDR3@1333hz 10600 CL7
GPU: Nvidia Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (reason I wanted to flash bios)
PSU: Seasonic 80+ platinum 650W

older non B3 versions ME can't be flashed,
therefor you will brick it if you attempt to do it via MSI's all in one updater..
you can try anyway to try with barabone setup with 1 memory stick only and disconnect everything that's not required to boot
and to try the USB key in any of the other USB ports
and/or with different USB key too
to see if ME update will able to continue
I wasn't sure about the ME update, read that someone managed. The Live Update 6 did my 1.19 (1.JO) update. I tried all usb slots and 3 different sticks, formated them and so on. Nothing worked. I tried disconnecting all hard drives and DVD drive too.
Is there a way to stop this cycle or to restore to the 1.19 version?

Problem with downgrading bios. MSI P67A-GD65 (B3).

Hi!
I'm having problems with downgrading my bios from version 4.3 to 1.19. I want to downgrade, because 4.3 doesn't want to boot when I use xmp settings for my RAM ( that might be related to my CPU since I have i5 2500k which is 32nm and 4.3 version of BIOS is recommended for 22nm processors ). When I try to flash with the MSI Forum HQ USB Flashing Tool I'm getting an error: "Rom file ROMID is not compatible with existing BIOS ROMID". I've ran out of ideas how to downgrade my bios so I'm asking you for help. My specs:
MOBO: MSI P67A-GD65 (B3)
CPU: INTEL CORE i5 2500K
RAM: G.SKILL RIPJAWS X 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1600MHZ CL6 (F3-12800CL6D-4GBXH)

Here you go. GD65 and GD55 usde the same BIOS files;

HELP! My 2011 MSI P67A-GD65 (B3) build suddenly refuses to boot

Hello, I am new to this forum because I hadn't had any troubles yet.
I built my system in July/August 2011. Here's what it has:
MSI P67A-GD65 (B3)
Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge CPU
16GB Corsair Vengeance 240-pin DDR3 1600
650w Corsair Enthusiast PSU
MSI N460GTX Cyclone 1GD5/OC GeForce Graphics Card
1x 2TB Hitachi 7K3000 7200RPM SATA 6 GB/s (With Windows 7 64-bit installed)
2x 3TB Seagate 7200RPM SATA 6 GB/s (For storage)
I have used this computer for graphics and video editing...it has served me faithfully. Yesterday evening while editing a Word document, I got "do you want to save your changes before exiting?" and of course I said yes. Then to my surprise my computer proceeded to shut down and reboot. At first I thought maybe I missed a Windows Update message telling me it would reboot in xxx minutes so I was not alarmed. But then as I watched it reboot, it gave me the POST message that there was no disc drive recognized. I thought that was weird since I never noticed it before. But then after the BIOS screen with the MSI graphics thing I was faced with a blank screen except for a flashing cursor two inches from the top of the screen. When I realized that this wasn't going to leave, I got a bit worried so I did a reset through my tower's button and same thing happened...I unplugged everything and let it sit for a few minutes... restarted 10 minutes later....same thing. Did it again and then went into my BIOS to look around. It showed no HDD's connected and I had 3 hooked up. I was concerned my HDD went bad so I connected it to another pc and accessed it with no trouble as another storage...I was happy my files are all there. So then I reconnected to my original build and got the same POST message, but this time the drives were visible in BIOS....but still no boot.
I have another blank SATA HDD so I removed all my HDD's and connected it by itself along with my SATA DVD drive and I tried to do a clean Win7 install on it. But at the point in the install process where it asks WHERE you want to install Windows, no drives showed up. So that door was closed. I tried the same thing again after swapping SATA port locations, thinking 1 was defective, but I got the same treatment from all of them...nothing recognized during the install process, although the drives are showing up in BIOS....
I think I know why the POST message is saying 'no drives detected,' though...I read it is saying that based on the SATA ports being used...I have 8 SATA's on my MOBO...4 6gb/s; 4 3gb/s. 7-8 are 6gb/s and ONLY when I have a HDD plugged into one of them does it show on the POST screen...which I still think is weird, and seems to have just started happening last night with the rest of the problems...but I could live with that since I could disable the message in BIOS I think.
But I have tried to clear the CMOS...all three ways...jumper, button, battery. I reset BIOS thru BIOS.... Nothing changes. BTW, in BIOS I ran a RAM memory check and it passed. Besides, I am not hearing any weird beeps...related to that....
I don't know why this would happen after working perfectly for 2 years... And why would it politely shut down in the beginning of the process anyways? I mean...I appreciated being asked to save my changes...but I don't know what else to do...PLEASE OFFER SUGGESTIONS...any help is appreciated.
Thank you in advance...I hope someone can help me! I am still covered by warranty...but I want to do this right.
Thanks!
Marie
EDIT: BTW, I have also tried unplugging everything from the pc except for the DVI and power plug in case that was interferring....

On a slightly different topic...would it work (I have never done this!) to take my OS HDD and boot it on another PC? I am thinking this would not work because of system files and etc., but I have always wondered this and now would be the best time for me to know
It mostly works if the components used aren't too special. As you have no RAID setup it should work. However you will need to reactivate Windows once it made it. Of course you will also need all drivers for the new machine. Be aware that you might not be able to connect to the internet before you installed the proper driver for the ethernet adapter.

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.

MSI P67A-GD65 Slow Boot

At times I'll get stuck at B4 or 98 error code for a good 5-15mins plus. I will either have to wait it out or press reset until it boot properly. Even when it gets passed this issue I still have to wait a while looking at the windows start up animation. I'm using a 2500k right now, my i920 system only displays the animation once before proceeding into windows.
The major issue is the B4/98 issue. I have tried a lot of things to no availability. If all else fails I will send this board back to Amazon and pick up an Asus or w/e.

What other USB devices besides the "usb card header card reader" and the mentioned mouse/keyboard combination do you have connected to your system?
Can you please try without the card reader?

MSI P67A GD65 System Freezes while Gaming

hey
i m facing system hangs/freezes while gaming. it is all along working fine but suddenly problem arrises outta nowhere. mostly happens in Metro Last Light Game. i did change multiple things like 2 different rams stick, Bios are 4.1v (at default), i tried 2 different GPUs like 290 and 580 but stilll facing same issue. dont know why.
if you can help on it this, it would be alot appreciated.

MSI p67a GD65

What is the actual power supply?
Follow this >>Posting Guide<<
Make sure you run latest BIOS.
PS: Intel ME driver is crucial, without it system won't work properly, and that's why it didn't freeze anymore. Same applies to GPUs: if you have 400W power supply and want to run 2-way SLI, it will be fine until you install drivers, which make the computer and graphic cards recognise how much power they have and so on

Serious gaming Question about MSI P67A-GD65

I really need to know for a fact, I mean really need to know. I play on getting 2 6990's and put them in CrossfireX. The thing is I see this board is 2 PCI E 16x but I see PCI E (16x, 8x). Does that mean the 2nd PCI E slot is running only at 8x? The sole purpose of having 2 6990s is to max out performance for the whole year. I see the 5970x2 lasted a whole year and is still faster than the 580GTX. I want to have 2 6990s to have superior FPS status for the whole year of 2011. Now if it's only 16x lanes for the top slot but 8x lanes for the last slot then will I see a performance loss of potential than if it was 16x on the bottom too?
MSI P67A-GD65 for 2 ATI 6990's in CrossfireX
If it's only 8x on the bottom then I cannot upgrade to a 2nd card. I see bench performance differences of 8x vs 16x with the latest cards of the day were massive. I can see how the cards of today would be even more massive.

Quote from: bobkn on 25-January-11, 11:04:00
The Maximus IV includes an nVidia NF200 PCI-E controller. Regular P67 boards only have 16 total lanes for graphics.
One thing I'm not clear on: the data rate with PCI-E on the P67 is supposed to be double that of the older chipsets. Naively, the data rate on a P67's X8 graphics bus ought to be the same as for one of the older X16s.
A pair of 6990s? Maybe you should have waited for Socket 2011. 40 PCI-E lanes, quad channel memory, 8 core CPUs, etc.
Perhaps the reason why they only have dual 8x and triple 8x not dual 16x or triple 16x. I think the NF200 chip is just a to make it look more expensive.
The last post in this forum the guy says it decreases performance.
http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=237334
It adds more latency. I had an EVGA Killer Xeno Pro which is a hardware NIC for the PC. When I do head to head headshots on my screen in TF2 against another sniper it shows fire on my barrel but no kill or damage on the shooter after I die. Even with a ping of 20ms and the other guy had like equal or more. When I removed and sold it, everytime I see a flash on my screen and I'm lined up properly for the headshot with someone with equal or a bit more ping than me I always get the kill or at least damage before I die. I honestly thing adding more things was like the P4 architecture having long pipelines. The longer it takes data to travel the slower it will be and could be significant in performance loss. I'm going to have 2 ATI 6990's on my MSI board and see what will happen.

Random lock ups with MSI P67A-GD65 (B3). Please help!

Hello all,
I just built a new system with the following components:
MSI P67A-GD65 (B3)
Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz
EVGA 012-P3-1570-AR GeForce GTX 570
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
Thermaltake Black Widow W0319RU 850W ATX 12V PSU
Antec Lanboy air case
2X Western Digital VelociRaptor WD1500HLFS 150GB in RAID0 running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit
This was supposed to be my dream computer, but it has turned into a nightmare! It locks up constantly. Usually the mouse pointer will disappear and the computer will just freeze up. This normally seems to occur after the computer has been idle for a while. I have read that there might be compatibility issues with the MSI P67A-GD65 and the GTX 570 video cards. Can anyone confirm this? Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this? The only thing event viewer is showing is the unexpected shutdown when I have to power cycle it. Thanks in advance!

Quote from: HU16E on 12-April-11, 11:26:00
That can happen, & it can really mess things up if two kits are attempted to be run together. The platform is DDR3 1333 as to native support by the CPU IMC. If the system can't run on 1333 RAM speed at CR 1, 9 9 9 24 @ 1.50v's, then something is wrong. No system should ever have to use an OC (or X.M.P.) as a workaround to make it work. That's why I recommended the Crucial 1333. Plug one stick in the blue primary dimm slot to get everything loaded & checked out, & go from there.
Exactly which SATA ports are you using for the HDD's & RAID? White Marvell or Intel SATA III, or the black SATA II?
Unfortunately, my local shop didn't have the Crucial, so I grabbed the Corsair instead. The Velociraptors are running from SATA 1 and 2 (the top white connectors). I also have 2X HITACHI Deskstar 2TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s running in RAID0 from SATA 3 and 4 for storage (this computer is intended for HD video editing, compositing in After Effects, etc.). Sorry I forgot to mention that in the original post!

MSI P67A-GD65 infinite boot/loop problem

installed everything into my case and go to boot into the UEFI and nothing !
i press the power switch, everything starts fine and the fans spin up and the LED's on the board are fine, waits 5 secs then it shuts itself off and tries the exact same process again. it keeps doing this until i cut the power !
i've checked the 24pin etc, KB & mouse r fine, 2 different sets off RAM in every slot, cleared CMOS (i think).
seems like a very common problem with this board after a bit of googling !!
also tried

this is the 1st time ive used it !
tried the OC genie button on and off.
been sitting in the box unused for about 1.5 months. doubt that means anything tho.
put the stock cooler on securely, and still the same problem !
now tho, it wont start for about 3 secs after i press the power button
and

disconnected all the SATA's bar 1, and still the problem :/!
all the standoffs etc r fitted correctly and iv re-connected the 8 pin cpu and 24 pin. 1 stick off RAM in the 1st slot also :/!
checked no molex connectors r touching the case metal either
any suggestions?

MSI P67A-GD65 keeps turing on and off...

I have had the follwing build since about march this year.
8GB Mushkin Silverline #996770 (2x4GB) DDR3 1333MHz 9-9-9-24
MSI P67A-GD65 Intel P67 (REV B3) Socket 1155 DDR3 PCI-Express Motherboard
Intel Core i7-2600 3.40GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor - Retail
XFX ATI Radeon HD5750
It was all working reasonably fine but I had notice it getting abit noisier so thought it was time for a bit of a clean to remove dust from fans, heatsinks etc. which it drastcially needed.
Anyhow, put it back together and now it turns on and off on start up at a period of about 5 seconds. (It has done this about 11 time before I unplugged it) Checked connections but everything SEEMS fine there. Unsure what it could be and could do to get it back up ASAP.
All was working fine prior and upto cleaning (which was today).
Also I currently have no computers to test bits on but I have done a Bare bones test with no look.
I am secrectly hoping one of can tell me its the heastink as I do have another of those (in fact a better one which I should really put on) but I somehow doubt it would be the issue.
Anyhow I hope this is enough information but I will promptly reply as soon as I can if you need to know anything else.
Thanks,

If it does not POST should it go I still get some output to the screen? I remember many years ago I could get to the BIOS but not boot with no RAM in. Should this happen with this board? All I would like to do is eliminate as many components as possible.
I am not sure sucessfully POST ing is necessarily important in this instance as the issue is (to me)a little odd. Even if it does not POST should it stay on for more than a second and secondly if it does turn off should it stay off and turn on and off ad infinitum? Just to not I am not using the case power switch just in case this had for whatever reason got jammed (this has happened on a computer I had to fix once (I am not a professional but often get roped in to "can you just have a quick look at..."))
Once again a huge thanks for the continued support on this, I have had far more useful advice/questions asked so far from you than I have from MSI themselves and actually had responses unlike my retailer (I will have ot try call them tommorow).

Turbo multiplier MSI P67A-GD65

Dear users of the MSI forum. I hope this question hasn't been asked before, I did search but found nothing.
Is it possible to adjust the so called "Turbo Multiplier" on the MSI P67A-GD65 motherboard in combination with the i7 2600k processor? For example: lets just say I want the standard 3.4GHz - 3.8 GHz turbo boost set to, shall we say, 4.0GHz - 4.5Ghz? Is this possible on this board? I have only seen this feature on Gigabyte and Asus motherboards, unfortunately not with MSI.
If the MSI motherboard doesn't have this function, do you miss it?

This thread may be of assistance regarding that; https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=146272.0

MSI p67a-GD65 system randomly shutsdown

I'm completely heartbroken about my new build. Everything was running solid for about a month now and I have just started to experience random shutdowns. According to my BIOS, my 2600K is running at stock at around 55 C. I performed a stress test last night using prime95 and the system shut down as well, although speedfan and HWMonitor both only showed an increase from 40-50C to 60-70C. After it shuts down, the system is completely unresponsive and will not start back up until I unplug the system or turn off the power supply, after which it suddenly will start up again. In my opinion, that's an indicator of something as I thought it was completely dead.
I have NO idea what could possibly be causing this issue. It could be heat, it could be my power supply, it could be my motherboard. How do I narrow this down?
Here's my build:
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB)
ADATA S599 AS599S-64GM-C 2.5" 64GB
Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz

One video card should be at around 200W - 210 W, so 400W for video cards.
Make that 250W per card + 100 W for the processor, about 50A @12V.

I do have a 750W power supply.
You mentioned other figures in your component overview:

Sounds like a PSU problem then. Use a different one and/or test with one video card only.

MSI P67A-GD65 Turning on and off

Hi ppl,
Well, the thing is like this, I bought a new gaming rig (specs after this chit chat XD) and everytime I start the system it goes on and off (just 1 Power Phase led on when this happens), even when I plug the power cable off the cpu the system will try to start again for the last time. The system turned on just 1 time and let me flashed the BIOS to v.1.7, after that I could start windows 7 without problems then rebooted to make sure everything was ok and everything went crazy again as stated before.
My specs are:
Intel 2600K @stock setting (how couldnt be at stock settings if cant ( ) start my system)
MSI P67A-GD65
Kingwin LZ 1000W (already tested on my cousin PC)
2x4Gb G-SKILL @ Stock Settings (already tried using a single module on all off the slots)
CoolerMaster V6GT Cooler
2x320GB Western Digital 6 Gb/s
CoolerMaster Cosmos S Case (already tried to turn the system on outside of the case)
Well this is it, hope I can get some help.
Thanks.
