New Bios coming? Release?

HI. I recieved a bios beta from MSI which got my realtek sound card to be recognized along with my other pci sound card but there still seems to be a little bit of problems here there like another pci card I have isn't getting recognized......it's beta after all. I wanted to know when is the next official beta release past the current 1.2 bios?

I installed the bios 1.3b3 which is available on the japanese site. Its sayz its supposed to fix hybernation.
As far as I can tell hybernation still dosen't work, and all the other problems this buggy board has are still there. Audigy problems/memory compatibility/etc.

Is there a new bios coming for P6N SLI Platinum for E8400 ?

Hi everyone,
( My system specs are in the signature )
I have been thinking to upgrade my cpu to E8400, but after some time passing through the forums, internet and asking some of my friends, I have decided not to. This is because I have seen many people frustrated and trying get their E8xxx's working on their moboard with endless efforts because of the wrong information given in the CPU support list of P6N-SLI Platinum. Yet, I have seen that only a few people have managed to get it work but with risky, manual adjustments.
So here is my question, will there be a new bios for P6N SLI Platinum that will make E8xxx series post without any adjustments for the users that want to stick with their P6N SLI Plat.?

Please ask here:

X301 Secure Erase with new BIOS

Hi there,
I switched to an Intel X18-M SSD on my X301 some time ago. I noticed that the new BIOS was released with Secure Erase functionality some time ago. As I was going to rebuild my laptop today, I thought I would give it a go. Turns out that this was a mistake. The utility failed on the Intel SSD necessitating a reboot after running for six hours. After the reboot, it turns out that the utility has set a hard drive password on the disk (there was not one before). As I have no way to know what password it has set, I am effectively locked out of my drive and it's a brick to all intents and purposes.
Does anyone (Lenovo in particular) know what password is set during the running of the Secure Erase functionality of the latest BIOS? My only alternative is to find out if there is a default master password from Intel. Since in principle, this should be blank, I believe that I am scuppered unless someone in Lenovo can tell me what password they set using the utility.
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Andy,
From the instructions at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-68369:
Turn off the computer.
Turn on the computer.
While the "To interrupt normal startup, press the blue ThinkVantage button" message is displayed at the lower-left area of the screen, press the F1 key. The BIOS Setup Utility menu will be displayed. If a password prompt appears, type the correct password.
Select the Security menu of the BIOS Setup Utility menu.
Select the Solid State Drive menu. The following message is displayed. Erase the Solid State Drive in the HDD bay [Enter]
Press Enter key.
Hitting Enter key makes showing next caution message and confirmation.
Yes confirmation shows next confirmation message.
If a harddisk password was set, a password prompt appears. Type the correct password.
Further process will start after entering the harddisk password.
Press F3 key several times to exit the BIOS Setup Utility.
As I did not have a HDD password set, I did not see step 9.
The utility is intended to perform a secure erase of a SSD using the ATA command set. In order to achieve this, it must first set a password on the drive (which is why it requires the user tell it the pwd if none has been set - see the end of this post for detailed documentation of this requirement).
In normal operation, the password would be cleared at completion of the operation. Because the operation failed however, the password is currently still there. Since I do not know what it is, I have been locked out of the (very expensive) drive.
In other tools which perform a secure erase (such as HDDERASE.EXE), the password which is set is documented for situations like this. This is not a security issue, rather it is one of following the correct process as laid down by the ATA standard.
It may well be that Lenovo has used a randomly generated password, in which case they have bricked my drive. If not, and a 'default' password is in use, then there is a means to recover the drive if they would document it. Since this is not a security issue, it really shouldn't be a problem. Furthermore, since the password was set without my consent, the security issue is mine since the utility has effectively executed a denial of service on me.
See here for details of the ATA secure erase protocols to understand how the password is used:
https://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/ATA_Secure_Erase
The relevant section which explains why the Lenovo utility does this is:
"To successfully issue an ATA Security Erase command you need to first set a user password."
This is what the utility has done and by not subsequently removing it, has denied me access to my drive.
Cheers.

New bios might help those with false temp readings...

Well MSI just sent me a new bios to try to fix the false temp reading issue and at first I thought it was the already-released Bios 1.25 but after comparing the checksums of both it seems to be a different bios, being Bios 1.2A... Anyway, I stuck the files on a floppy and then booted from the floppy and flashed it and to no avail, the temps are still wrong... I have a Clawhammer core and was hoping to get some input from other people with Clawhammer and Newcastle cores... Here's the email conversation I had with them along with a link to the bios they sent me at the bottom...

Dear Alex,
Thank you for contacting MSI Technical Support.
The CPU temperature is different and there is tolerance difference between the data showed and the real temperature according to the CPU model and type and even produce date and manufactory . And this MB supports thermal protection function, it will prevent the MB and CPU from overheating. So please don't worry about the temperature.
We have tested various CPU with newcastle core in our lab but we can't find the same problem. We'll keep checking with AMD and contact them to get more different CPU to analyse it futher together with them. New BIOS will released right now if we have some findings and figure out the sloution. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Subject: False CPU Temperature Readings with K8N Neo Platinum
When will you guys be releasing a new bios for the K8N Neo Platinum that fixes the issues with false CPU temperature readings? As far as I know, none of the beta bioses that are out right now fix that particular issue. I have an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (Clawhammer). My temperatures have ranged anywhere from 60C to 184C, it's obvious that these temperatures are wrong because the computer would should itself down somwhere around 75C. I am also sure the the CPU heatsink is seated correctly as I have reseated it many times. I took a look around on your forums and also noticed that I am not the only one having these problems as tons of people with Clawhammer and Newcastle cores are having the same problem. Is there an estimated release date for a fix on this?
Thanks, Alex
Bios 1.2A
Whatever results you guys come up with, please post it in this thread so I can send it back to MSI and hopefully it will help them in fixing this problem...
Oh and the usual disclaimer, don't try and sue me if you screw over your motherboard, I'm simply passing along the information they sent me...

For anyone who is still having problems, please post the information written on the top of your CPU so I can send it back to MSI to help them fix this. If you can't get the info off the top of your CPU, take a screenshot of the CPU tab in CPU-Z and send it to my email at [email protected]. In my next email I will also let them know that there are some people with Newcastles that still have problems. Thanks.

Dear Alex,
Thanks for your feedback. could you please tell us all the information located on the top of the CPU? We'll check with AMD further to figure out the solution. We'll let you know if we have some findings and solution. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Well I had ten people with Newcastle cores test the bios and for all of them, the false temp readings were fixed. But those of us with Clawhammer's are still having problems... Any idea why the problems were fixed with Newcastle cores but not Clawhammer cores?

When is going to be released official new bios for k9a platinum

Hi,
as I write in topic, when is going to be released new bios for k9a platinum?
thanks

That is a Kuma CPU and as such it is not and probably will not be supprted on your older MB.
Here is a list of MBs that support 7550 Kuma, 7750 it appears like is too new to be on any MSI MB CPU support list yet however it it should be supported on them as well.
K9A2 CF, K9AGM3-F, K9A2 Neo-F
K9N2GM-F V2, K9N2 SLI Platinum / K9N2 Zilent, K9N2G Neo
K9A2GM V3, KA790GX, KA780G-M
KA790GX-M, KA780GM-M, KA780GM

When will a new BIOS for K7N2G-LISR be released

Anyone have any idea when a new BIOS for the K7N2G-LISR will be released or if a new beta bios is available :D

I have a BIOS bug for MSI.
I can't disable the tv-out function. Therefore I can't watch any DVD's. I have to take out my G3 to enable me to adjust the onboard GFX settings and there is no option to disable tv-out as described in the manual.
I have emailed MSI and their tech support are either extremely busy or completely useless like their software.
This is completely driving me up the fecking wall!!!
I love MSI hardware but I have to avoid any MSI software like the plague... unfortunately the BIOS is unavoidable.
MSI, please sort this or I will be forced to return my hardware and look for another brand. I'm considering ABIT so be warned.
Could we draw up a list of bugs to give to MSI so we can try and get them sorted?
Sorry for the ranting, but theres not much I can do. :(

Will there be a new bios

Will there be a new bios for the K8N neo platinum? or is 1.4 the last.
I know beta bioses are available, but I don't want to use those.

T2faag , yes there will be a new bios for Neo1 .Beta out with name 1.5b6 is proof of that .
When they are satisfied with the 1.5Betas they will release a 1.50 official based
of one or several of the betas with possible som last changes or merged changes.
But have no idea of the timeframe .
(boogieman ! you refer to Neo2 not Neo1 )

845 PE-Max "NEW" Bios Flash "does it really fix the temp readings?"

So MSI has been having problems with there Temp readings on there boards. So I was surprised to see that they just released a bios update to correct this issue. Of course I couldn't wait to download and flash the bios and see what effect it had. Everything went well, I popped into windows and (I'm testing Intel's stock HSF currently) and my temps dropped drastically????? Now this can't be correct either...
Motherboard: 32c
CPU: 29c
Case 23c
Now remember this is with the retail P4 2.53 HSF. With the new bios flash it shows a cooler temp than my Spark 7. And the Intel is only running at 2400RPM. Before the bios flash with the Intel HSF:
Motherboard: 33c
CPU: 40c
Case 23c

Well ran another test last night. Ran a CPU Burn-In test for 30 Minutes and the temp only hit 45c during the test. Obviously the new BIOS is incorrect. I find it impossible that the retail HSF on my P4 2.53GHz can keep it below 50c under max load. My Tt Spark 7 with Artic Silver II only kept it at 37c idle. I'm reading 28c Idle now using the retail HSF.
MSI - ??????????????????????????

New MBP coming soon?

Hi, im not entirely sure ive posted this in the right section so apologies in advance.
Basically i am considering buying a MacBook Pro in the very near future, if not before then definitely by christmas, however i am being slightly cautious because i've had my fingers slightly burnt twice recently...i bought an iPhone 3G in May, a month before the 3GS was announced. Then i bought a 24" iMac in August, and now rumours surface that a newly designed iMac is due imminently.
I know this isnt Apples fault lol...but it was still frustrating nonetheless knowing a bit more patience on my part would have got me something even better.
what i want to know is, can anyone tell me if Apple are known to release certain hardware updates/revamps at specific times, is there a tentative time of year where for example we can expect updated MBP's, or is it purely guesswork?
if i buy a MBP this year, am i likely to get stung with a newer version getting released within a few months?
Thanks in advance.

In the end it's about what you want the technology to do. Will the tool do the job? Do you need it?
There's loads of new tech enhancements coming, such as USB 3.0, Sata III, the i7 processor etc. etc. Apparently there will be a replacement to USB and displayport based on optical fibres but who knows how quickly they'll be picked up or even when the products that use them will be on the scene in any great numbers.
Because of power use, i7 wont be used in laptops in it's quad form but rather its dual core configuration. The likely enhancement will be power usage over Core Duo. That's some time off, since Apple currently uses NVIDIA graphics and system chips and i7 is very expensive. You'll be able to buy a USB 3.0 express card if you ever need one - there's one out already. But hey where's that USB 3.0 hardware?
It's likely that the above might become attractive after 5 years of life from your new MBP. In which case why not just buy it and use it. I replaced my Powerbook after 5 good years, repaired it and let a friend's brother have it for more use. It still holds up next to my new machine. I intend for this machine to run as long. Better to make your own plans about how long you use your tech than feel compelled by the latest and greatest in my opinion.

With the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

with the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

I can only echo what Pogo says about buying based on what it does today.
3 weeks ago I bought a Mac Mini. A new Mac Mini model has been rumoured to come out anywhere between the same week I made my purchase and the end of August. None's been released as yet.
I wanted one in the week of June that I bought mine so I bought it based on the fact that it did what I wanted and I couldn't imagine anything which could be added that I'd want - my MacBook Pro doesn't have Thunderbolt so the most likely addition isn't really going to be much use for me.
Basically you have to buy what you what based on what's out at the the time.
I can promise that within seconds of the iPad3 being released, the web will be full of rumours about the next one!

New Bios coming? Release?
