MSI Z87-GD65 and Z87-G43 problem on first reboot

Hi,
I have got the 2 motherboard in the subject and I have the same issue on both!
Basically I switch on the PC and after the logo of the mainboard my PC just automatically switch off with a small bep, then when I try to switch on again, everything works normally as it should be.
I have some doubt that can be related to the ram, but... it is strange that for 2 months was ok and now start to do it on the second motherboard as well.
My main config is :
Z87-G43 bios 10.4
i5 4670k
ram cmx12gx3m3a2000C9 but I have installed just 2 dimm so I have 8GB into the slot dimm 2 an 4
VGA MSI 770 gtx
PSU corsair 600cx
no overclock but just the XMP profile activated.
On the other config
Please could you help me?
Thanks

Since it's happening on two separate boards and during bios boot I don't believe it's driver related nor board/s related. I have the Z87M-G43 with no issues, so that leads me to believe it's either your PSU, or ram, or possibly an errant install in your case (eg. missing a motherboard standoff). Try another PSU see what happens, Also try different ram. In theory your PSU should be ok with your 770 GPU but it might not it could be a slightly defective unit with an out of spec +12v rail. The only way you are going to find out the issue is by testing components. You can find out if your GPU is ok by trying it in another machine. Ram too. Power supply as well. If you have a decent runnable PSU laying around I would set your rig to the lightest possible config using your Intel integrated GPU (no GTX card) just to see if you can get a decent boot.

  • New MSI Z87-G43 Motherboard won't reboot

    Hello I've been having some issues,
    I've gone through multiple steps to try and get my computer to restart properly. Every time my computer tries to restart from the BIOS, the desktop, or during installations and updates, my computer won't restart properly. the computer is still on, but it loses display and connection to my monitor, and I just receive a black screen. The only way to fix it is by hitting the power button, and turning it back on.
    Any help would be greatly appreciate as I would love to get my almost new computer running.
    Thanks

  • MSI z87 G43 OC GENIE ISSUE/Bios UPDATE

    Hi Everyone, This is my First time posting to the forums.
    Here Are my System Specs Before I post the question
    Motherboard: msi z87 g43
    CPU: intel core i7 4770k (haswell)
    RAM: Corsair Vengeance Ram ddr3 clocked at 1333mhz, 16gb, using 4 4gb sticks.
    GPU: evga gtx 770 nvidia
    PSU: Bronze certified psu at around 850 watt.
    CPU COOLER: is a standard corsair single radiator water cooler
    QUESTION/PROBLEM:
    Ive had this computer built for about a year (basically right when the gtx 770 released). I have no problems with the device and it works perfectly. The motherboard however is where my problems starts to arise. I tried my hand at overclocking but ended up with a blue screen after some stress testing and just set my values back to default. But since then I really havent tried anything new with it. However, I noticed OC genie and I thought hey maybe Ill try this out for a chance. So I boot up and go into the bios set up (all values are default) and press the oc genie.As soon as the screen flashed back up I get a black screen and can not post. The only way to actaully fix this is to reset my CMOS which luckily I know how to do. But the black screen displayed also had a number letter combo at the bottom. It displayed 9C at the bottom in white. But when I get a successfull boot into the bios right beofre the bios logo I get a black screen with A2. But the A2 appears in every boot. Now heres where things get funky. I have a logitech Camera I use primarily for skype. When I have the device plugged in before the computer is booted. When I try to boot I get the black screen with the 9C, but when I unplug and reboot, I get the A2 and I get into my OS.
    Now I tried overclocking again at 46 multiplyer with a 1.2v but When I did I get text saying its not successfull and resets my bios info, (which is cool considering oc genie didnt do this it just corrupts my CMOS).
    So you must all be asking what version of the bios I have and the answer is 1.0....
    Now I know there is a 1.9 and even a 1.A version which came out this year in 2014
    The problem with this however is I know the dangers of flashing my bios and it can really screw up my mobo as in brick the darn thing. But from what I read, Live update form msi does not work and I shouldnt use it. But Is flashing the bios via the bios set up where there is a section specifically for flashing safe to do? With the oc genie not working im scared to try flashing my bios via the bios setup if that makes any sense
    To wrap it up, is it a problem with my mobo, do I need to update my bios to fix it? If yes then what is the safest way of doing it since ive never done a bios update before (but i get the concept put the up date on a FAT 32 load it from it in the bios set up option let it do its thing and boom ) .

    The method above does NOT apply to your board. Either use MFlash (bios + ME option) or use the below:
    >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
         A.) Download the attached archive (E7816IMS_1A0.rar.rar) and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
         B.) Download and install the Forum flash tool.
         C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
         D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
         E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
         F.) Boot to the USB 
         G.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash
         H.) After flashing reinstall ME drivers in Windows:  http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_amt90_mb.zip

  • Msi z87-g43 random 1 beep then BSOD then restarts plz help...

    Heres the list of mods on my computer Below. everything is less than 6 months old besides the Harddrive witch I used from my 3 year old HP that I used to have. So anyways my Motherboard throws a 1 beep then BSOD then restarts every once and a blue moon like literaly every few weeks weather im gaming hard or not its just so random . I had it happen again today and prier to this time it happened like over 2 weeks ago. Ive tried reseting BIOS and also did Memtest on the memory for 6-7 hours or so and it passed and even made sure the memory was compatable with the Motherboard witch it is. So now im lost and don't know what to do...is it the HardDrive possibly??? SOMEONE PLEASE HELP....... :-(
    Cosmos 2 case
    msi z87-g43 motherboard
    Intel i7-4771 CPU
    2x4 GB Patriot Viper 1600 ( memory tested for 6-7 hours with memtested and passed )
    Nvidia GTX 760OC edition 2gb card
    3 year old sata 1.5TB harddrive
    Windows 7 home 64bit
    Thermaltake Smart Series 750w PSU

    This could be one of many faults. Try here : http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-system/kernel-data-inpage-error-help-pls/94003454-5e1f-459f-89e8-1a555dc5e575
    First do a Chkdsk. Choose Admin command prompt and type "CHKDSK /R /F" (without the quotes), press Enter. It will ask for a reboot, press Y, and let it do it's thing. It may take an hour or so depending on how many errors it finds. If you get a cascade of errors it is likely that you have a failing hard drive.
    Anyway this is a good start.

  • MSI Z87-G43 clear cmos

    Hi,
    I need some help in figuring out how to clear the cmos on a MSI Z87-G43. I've read https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=31222.0 but they don't seem to apply on this motherboard.
    The manual shows an image of two pairs of squares with a white square inside them (an attempt to depict the image below). The left pair is grey and labeled Keep Data. The right pair is black and labeled Clear Data. They both have the number "1" labeled above.
    1                    1
    [ x ] [ x ]          [ x ] [ x ]   
    Keep Data     Clear Data
    The manual says you should short this jumper to clear the cmos. So it seems there is just a pair of pins instead of a three-pin jumper that is refered to in the  instructions (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=31222.0).
    Now I found a pair of pins located below the label JBAT1 and to the left of a pair of pins labeled JCI1. Are these the ones?
    And how do I short them? I didnt recieve any jumpers with the motherboard. So maybe I have to order a pair?
    Thanks!

    Yes and you can short it with anything conductive (e.g. a screwdriver). You just need a temporary contact of the pins. Alternatively remove the battery for some time.

  • MSI Z87-G43 gaming + i5 4690K compatibility

    hello there
    so, i built a new pc a few days ago and i decided to go with these 2 options (msi z87-g43 gaming + i5 4690K)
    anyway, i saw that some people have issues and that it's kind of a roll of a dice whether this specific motherboard will boot with the 4690K or not. From what i saw, it depends on the motherboard's manufacture date and if it has a A5/A6 bios version or not.
    now, what i'd like to know is; is there a way to check the bios version of the specific motherboard without opening the box? (i'll have my new hardware probably tomorrow)
    i'm really thinking about getting another mobo, i'm not sure what i'll do though.. A friend told me, even though it wont have the A5/A6 bios version, it'll probably  boot and i'll be able to update it through windows. He also told me there's a really small chance i'll need another cpu to update the bios and then put my cpu on the mobo.. As i said, roll of a dice.
    Any advices/tips?

  • MSI Z87-G43 can't control fan speed

    Hi, i just bought an MSI Z87-G43 and i'm using a i5-4670 on it (yeah, 4670 without the K).
    I wanted the minimum noise as possible so i bought a Noctua NH-U12P SE2
    Like the pictures shows it has 2 fans.
    I connected the 2 fans on cpu1 and cpu2 fan and both BIOS and Commander Center can see them correctly, but both of them can't change the rotation speed.
    Those fans have a 3 pins connector.
    How can i do it? Now my CPU is cool and i like it, but a little more hot for a little less noise is a good deal (and my goal!)
    thank you

    As alternative you can get a fan controller like Sunbeamtech Rheosmart PCI Fan Controller, it should allow to use 4pin PWM singnal and convert it into voltage control,
    Quote
    Product Details:
    Smart Way Controlling all Fans & Airflow. The Rheosmart PCI Fan Controller is designed to make any existing 3-pin fan automatically regularized by the PWM signal from the Motherboard! With its ability to connect two fans to a single PWM connector at a maximum of 20W/channel, a wide selection of fans can be supported. When a normal fan is connected to the Rheosmart PCI Fan Controller, they become auto adjusting through the PWM signal.
    The Rheosmart PCI Fan Controller operates in two different modes; when connected to a PWM-enabled motherboard you can allow the system to auto-adjust fan speed through he motherboard's temperature sensor. When switched onto manual mode by the pushing of the lever-switch to the right, you turn the connected fan onto manual control mode.

  • MSI Z87-G43 Gaming and R9 290 OC Windforce not playing nice

      Hi, already tried search but can find a solution, i have an Z87-G43 Gaming(Bios 10.30) and bought an Gigabyte R9 290 OC ref:GV-R929OC-4GD-GA(BIOS F3L). All is on latest Firmware/BIOS.
    The problem is that the motherboard wont recognize my 290 on first PCIE 3. It works on second 16x slot. THe thing is... An Gigabyte 7950,Sapphire 7970, Unknown NVIDIA 7200gs all work in the first slot... now that i got bf4 my 290 doesnt work in the first slot... Latest bios from MSI say's vga compat. improved. The computer boots fine with the integrated vga and in bios it shows the first slot as empty. Anyone?

    Like I said best to contact both and see what you can do. When I check VBIOS for MSI cards, there are normally newer versions available, so best to check. On the other hand if it is a bios issue, MSI can get on it.

  • MSI Z87-G45 problems

    I'm having issues (again) with the MSI Z87-G45 motherboard. This is a replacement board from having to RMA my initial purchase. Brand new build and I cannot get any display. I have reseated the cpu, ram, and graphics card multiple times. I disconnected everything from the motherboard except for the essential items and I still do not get a display. I tried without a graphics card and was still unable to get a display. When using DVI the monitor goes into standby mode. When using VGA the monitor doesn't recognize it's hooked up to anything. I use this monitor on multiple computers in my house so 10000% sure it is not the monitor. All components are out of the case.
    Components I have tested:
    cpu: Intel Pentium G3258, Intel Celeron G3220
    Motherboard: MSI Z87-G45
    gpu: MSI R9 280, MSI R7 260, no gpu
    psu: EVGA 750w 80+ Bronze, Corsair CX430w 80+ Bronze
    ram: Pny XL9 1600 DDR3 8gb stick, Kingston Fury 1866 DDR3 8gb stick
    Is there something I'm missing or is this as simple as I received another bad board?

    So...

    When I was very beginner, I had a computer with GPU, and I had similar problem: no display. Well, I was smart enough to plug my HDMI to on board HDMI port even though there was a GPU. So please make sure that you plug the cable to the graphics card.
    Can you try different video cable? DVI/VGA/HDMI.
    Intel Pentium G3258 will NOT work as your board BIOS is probably earlier than required for this chip to run properly.

  • MSI Z87 G43 GAMING -BIOS CRASH-

    You have to return it to the seller if you want a replacement (LiveUpdate hasn't voided warranty as that was provided by MSI). Otherwise look around the city for repair center and ask if they can restore badly flashed BIOS on this mobo.

    which version it is exactly?
    and have you flashed to this version when you got the board?
    If so do you include BIOS+ME Update? [required] not sure the bios file was just downloaded and then flashed in the bios via USB. does the MSI bios include the +me as standard?
    bios was updated because we believed that was the issue but same problem. the bios version is
    how many sticks are they?
    have you tried with 1 memory stick only? then to see if reboot issue will persist
    only 1 x 8 gb stick so not an option unfortunately
    you mean CL11? yes sorry
    its weird when the computer is up and running its fine just doesn't reboot
