P67A-GD65 B3 Overclocked In Bios But Not In Windows?

Just got this board last week with a I5-2500. I overclock it manually to 4ghz and it seems to take in the bios. Shows 4ghz. But when I boot into Windows7 using CPU-Z it show 3.8? I disabled the power saving stuff thinking that is the problem but no go. Can't get Windows to see it above 3.8

Nothing wrong with a solid 3.8. In the days of the P7N Diamond, I would have tried a cartwheel with a handstand finish to get a stable 3.8.

  • P7N Platinum and Q9550 Overclocking in Bios but not in Vista????

    I just got this board and I have done my fair share of overclocking but this is a strange one.  I overclock my FSB on the processor to 355x8.5 and repost and I show 3.018 Ghz in the bios but when I get into windows vista ultimate 64 I still show 2.83 default where it should show Q9550 @2.83GHZ 3.018GHz.  All of the other programs I run (3dmark 06) shows 2.83 as well.  I don't see any difference in 3dmark 06 when going from 2.83 to 3.018 in the bios either 13855.  Am I missing something?  My P6N SLI-Fi showed the information correct when I overclocked the same way with my old chip.

    Have you done >>Clear CMOS Guide<< {With power cord removed} after BIOS update?
    Have you disabled EIST in BIOS too?

  • SSD showing in bios but not during windows fresh install.

    Hello all,
    Currently I built a new computer.
    I-5 4760k
    8gigs Cosiar Vengance
    750 watt power supply
    MSI g45 gaming mobo
    GTX 770
    I'm trying to use the computer off a new Samsung evo 120. I want to do a fresh install of windows 7 on it. The bios picks it up, but it's not an option to install when I try to do a fresh install of windows 7.. Kind of at a loss here of what to  do, is there an option on the mobo I need to set in order for it to be detected?

    Sounds one of the following problems:
    1.) The drive is formatted MBR w/ win 8 features enabled / legacy disabled.
    2.) A "dynamic" drive is present.

  • P67A-gd65 boot problem after BIOS update

    I'm not optimistic about this, but...
    My P67A-GD65 was delivered with BIOS 1.5. (However, the stickers on both chips read 1.4.) I updated the BIOS to 1.7 using a DOS formatted USB flash drive. (The EM was updated as well.) Things seemed to be running OK.
    I foolishly experimented with the 1.8A beta BIOS. I flashed from DOS again. After rebooting, I went into the settings to reconfigure the machine as it had been. The EFI screen hung, so I powered the machine down (from the button, not the PSU).
    I've been unable to boot since. No display appears on the monitor. If it is powered down, the power comes back on for an instant, goes off again, and comes up again with nothing on the display. The USB keyboard and mouse never become active, as far as I can tell. I tried a PS/2 keyboard; no difference.
    If this board has dual BIOS indicator LEDs, neither illuminates, which indicates that all is serene.
    I have cleared the CMOS several times, using the jumper or the button at the rear I/O panel.
    Any advice? Is there any way to force the use of the second BIOS? (I've read the MSI dual BIOS FAQ posted elsewhere, but didn't spot anything of use.)
    RMA time?

    Hi,
    The blue screens started after a clean Bios flash to the 18b10 bios then eventually it stopped working complety (just doing the start up cycle over and over)
     I had tried reseting cmos and it doesnt make a difference, the motherboard will not post , boot , start up at all so default settings cant be set (although reseting cmos would set to default anyway)
     Each time the board goes through the start up cycle (i.e. upon pressing start button the board will start up with fans spinning for a second then shut down, start up again with fans spinning for a second then shut down, continuasly repeating until main power is removed) I have used a multimeter to measure the voltage read points on the board and they show that there is no vcore being suplied to the cpu but all other points show the voltage is being supplied to those componants, so imo that is where the problem lies and I would sugest that the other ppl who are having this issue to also try  measuring the voltage read points and see if the same thing is happening on thier boards .
     If others are getting the same results (no vcore) then the msi techs should be informed of this issue..(imo)
    1.8b10 still is a beta bios. I got random bluescreens with that one also at some point a blinking bios led. So I flashed back from secondary bios (using the first option (change disable in enable)in "security" in the EFI shell to allow flashing from secondary bios), blinking bios led now stopped, Then I flashed with 1.7, no issues sofar cpu now running stable at 4.5Ghz (already 2 days).

  • I see a distortion icon image in Windows 8.1 but not in windows 8

    I saw distorted icon image in windows 8.1 but not in Windows 8. This bug doesn't affect Windows 8.1 functionality but causes some icons to look ugly, distorted, fuzzy.This bug can be seen in "Delete confirmation dialog box". The
    folder icon in delete confirmation dialog box will look distorted and ugly. Black edges will appear around the icon and the icon will not look correct.The same thing also happens in "Send To" menu.
    Also heard that this bug is not related to graphics card driver or any other thing.
    Hope windows will take necessary actions to solve this bug as soon as possible so that users like us can be satisfied with the new windows 8.1.

    Try running SFC scan. Refer the following link for more information:

  • Illustrator extention export PDF file as PSD worked on Windows XP but not on Windows 7

    We have a extension that convert files to CMYK PSD with color profile attached. It worked fine (for most of files) on Windows XP but not on Windows 7.
      var expOpt: ExportOptionsPhotoshop = new ExportOptionsPhotoshop();
      expOpt.resolution = 300;
      expOpt.imageColorSpace = ImageColorSpace.CMYK;
      expOpt.embedICCProfile = true;
      doc.exportFile( psdFile, ExportType.PHOTOSHOP, expOpt );
    above code never throw any exception on Windows7, but just no file been saved. It only happened to convert PDF to PSD.
    If I manually open file in Illustrator (win7) and export it as PSD, I got ‘not enough memory’ error.  I googled a solution make the manual exporting worked but still the extension didn’t work.
    The solution for manual operation is set ‘additional plug-in folder’ for preferences-> plug-ins& Scratch disks’.
    Any advice?
    Thanks!
    Ling

    I apologize for not having an answer. I just wanted to chime in and say that I am having the exact same issue. I have never had this before. It's happened ever since I had my hard drive replaced and Illustrator has been reinstalled, so I am assuming that it's a preference somewhere that I have missed?

  • MSI p67a-gd65 dead after last bios update 4.0

    hi, i read and execute exactly the bios update ver. 4.0  for MSI p67a-gd65, oll goes ok, update bios and ME successful , but after restart ... main board dead!!! i prove reset cmos  ... nothing ....  mainboard starts and work only 1 second, after that restart in an infinite loop with work 1 second and restart, i must disconnnect the power cable to stop that infinite reset!!
    mainboard damage? 

    Quote from: Differentone on 02-June-12, 20:30:48
    I think you failed at disconnect the power while in loop.
    Because of was the same as me, infinite loop like 4~5 times and after continued to install.
    Here for an explanation look at page 4 > http://event.msi.com/mb/22nm/Bios_ME7_to%20_ME8_update_SOP_EN.pdf
    If you didnt seen this part, failed and.... I dont know what can you do at this point.
    in fact the problem was after this last update mentioned on page 4 of SOP guide that you linked and that i was read ... all ... but what is strange is that i have no display error during all update .. alla goes fine ...after last reboot  ... dead.
    someone can tell us what's happened? i'm not newbie about this procedures of bios update ...without any problem.

  • Msi P67A-GD65 keep restarting after bios update

    Hello
    I  have a Msi P67A-GD65 B2 motherboard, I tried today to upgrade bios to version 4.2,after update pc start up showing marvel controller then MSI logo and then computer restart over and over,if I try to enter BIOS will show 'entering setup', and restart again.Dual BIOS led does not light up and is not blinking.What can I do in this situation? How to switch the motherboard BIOS to boot from the other one?

    Quote
    Can you verify that, I don't think they make a B2.
      Not sure why the hijack in this thread with different hardware involved, but a B2 is a defective mainboard from the beginning, and should have been replaced at the time of the replacement offers over a year or so ago.

    I understood that there was a backup BIOS so I felt confident to be able to fall back in some way. Can you help me using that backup?
    The Ivy udpate flashes the secondary chip as well on the GD65, so it would do no good to have access to it unless you could get into the UEFI/BIOS somehow to 'enable' the Dual BIOS Auto Update setting to restore the corrupted primary.

  • Z68A-GD65-G E7681IMS.N00 bios does not suffer from cpu throttling

    Hello
    I have been trying to overclock my 2500k with no good results despite having one of the best aftermarket
    coolers for my CPU (Noctua NH-D14). The problem was that even with the CPU working within acceptable
    temperatures, I was suffering from cpu throttling.
    -Ill try to describe the cpu throttling I experienced with N10,N20 and N31 beta bios: I was trying to achieve
    4.8Ghz by maintaining the stock FSB and setting the multiplier to x48. I got to boot into windows, but no
    matter what I used in C1E, Speedstep, Turbo boost, C-State, C-State Limit, Short or long term wattage or core limit,
    the multiplier lowered from 48x to 41x under a prime95 or linx stress test, thus leaving the system a real CPU speed
    of 4.1GHz just in the moment that high CPU clock is needed!!!!!!!!.
    -I have assembled cheaper Z68 mainboards form other vendors having no problems in overclocking 2500k to 4.4Ghz with much worse
    CPU coolers than mine, so I decided to investigate this issue a bit.....
    I realized that original N00 bios does not suffer from CPU throttling, getting easily to 4.8Ghz with 1.4v CPU, maintaining the multiplier
    ad 48X for the whole AVX linx stress tests, these are the results:
    -N00 bios..............................48X stable multiplier......................4.8Ghz. ................linx 119.1360 GFlops
    -N10,N20 or N31b bios...........41X-48X variable multiplier.............4.1-4.8Ghz............linx 104.4250 GFlops
    hope this info is useful for anyone(specially bios developers), and I havent bored you......

    Actually, I don't need to apply any kind of load to see the throttling in any of the latest bios, I just boot into windows and open CPUZ.
    With the multi set at 48 in the bios, it jumps from about 44-48. A different (lower) multi produces the same fluctuation of the multi.
    Using an older bios with the G43 board completely eliminated the issue, it stays at a constant 48, or whatever other multi I choose to set in the bios.
    For my Z68-GD65, the oldest bios listed on the MSI download page, which is listed as v.23.0 (7681vN0) dated 07-06-2011, is the only bios that I can use to keep a steady multiplier, and thus clock speed.
    But, as I mentioned, I have EIST, Speedstep, etc. all disabled, so I will always have one clock speed, whether at idle or load.
    Thus it shows immediately when just at the desktop.
    I want to emphasize that I'm not trying to make a big deal about this, just having a friendly discussion about it.
    I have a good workaround for now, and as I mentioned, I'm very pleased with these MSI boards. I gave the G43 to a good friend, so I can just enjoy the Z68-GD65 now.
    @Bernhard: That's an interesting theory that with EIST and C-States disabled, the Primary Plane power limit and long and short duration power settings don't apply correctly, etc.
    I have no clue what it means, but it all sounds very good :-D
    Only thing is, why does it not happen at all with an older bios in two different boards?
    Perhaps you could simply try temporarily disabling all EIST, C1E, and C-State just to see if the multi fluctuates for you when you check with CPUZ?
    By the way, I'm enjoying your posts on these boards, particularly the Z68 GD65 now. You're providing a lot of very helpful information, which certainly helps me to learn to work with this excellent motherboard.
     For 4.8GHz (4809MHz in CPUZ with the 100.2 bus speed) I have the vcore at 1.420v., PLL is at 1.65v.
    Quite stable there, I'm not anal with P95, but an hour or two of Prime Blend with no errors is good enough for me.
    @leftyman: 1.355v. for 4.8GHz?
    You've got a really good cpu there!
