Re: No display, MSI Z97 PC Mate (New Build)

from the lower screen shot it looks like the drive is empty!
how have you formatted the disk and what format did you chose?
is it in a USB 2.0 slot?

Hi,
I have a MSI GT70 2PE
While looking around the hidden bios settings I noticed that a the setting Advanced/System Agent Config./Graphics Configuration/gfx low power mode is set to enabled.
What does this setting affect and would this be lowering gra...

  • MSI Z97 PC Mate/H97 PC Mate

    Hi I was wondering if anyone would have a solution to my issue right now. I want my pc to basically be completely shut off when I shut it down at the windows home screen but instead, when I shut down my pc and move my mouse (logitech mx performance) it turns on like it would if it was on sleep mode. Currently my wake up usb option is enabled so during sleep mode, i can wake up the computer using a keyboard/mouse without having to click on the power button. But when i disable this option i cannot wake up the computer using usb while it is on sleep mode.
    Motherboard: Z97 PC Mate
    Want: for the pc to completely shut down and not be awaken when a mouse or keyboard is touched unless it is on sleep mode.

    You can't have your cake and eat it too.
    There are no levels for wakeup, so it's either wake from both S3/S5 or none. Don't touch your mouse or keyboard.
    With that said, I used to have PS/2 keyboard with "Power" key that I used to turn on my computer because the case power switch would always get stuck in. It did not requite any special settings in BIOS.
    I have no idea if MSI motherboards support this function, and PS/2 keyboards are rare now-a-days

  • Problem with MSI 975x Platinum based new build

    I am having what looks like a familiar issue with setting up a new build PC. Spec is as follows:
    MSI 975x Platinum edition MOBO
    Intel Core Duo 2 e6600 CPU
    Western Digital Raptor 150GB S150 16mb 10000rpm SATA drive
    Corsair Memory TWIN2X2048-6400 2x1GB 240-Pin DIMM XMS2-6400 CL5
    SONY DVD-RW
    The problem comes when trying to install Windows XP on the single SATA drive (I don't want a RAID array - mainly as I only have 1 hard drive!).
    I press F6 as instructed to install the SATA drive - I have created a disk with the necessary driver files from the MSI website.
    Based on other posts I have seen I have put all the files except "txtsetup.oem" in another folder on the floppy (either "\win_XP" or "\winXP"). However I still get the same error message:
    "file \x32\jraid.sys caused an unexpected error (18) at line 2108 in d:\xpspl\base\boot\setup\oemdisk.c"
    I am beginning to think I can't install XP to a SATA drive.  Can anyone help with this? Is there an "official" driver floppy disk I can get from MSI in exactly the right format?
    Alternatively is it worthwhile buying a small standard IDE drive and installing XP to that to get me going and then install the SATA drive once XP is going? Would it then be possible to shift XP onto the faster SATA drive?
    Thanks

    if you using 1 sata drive you dont set it up as a raid , in the sata options set it up as ide enhanced also in this mode no need for pressing f6 just make sure that the sata is set to 1st boot hdd , if you using 1 sata and 1 ide hdd and tring to isntall on the sata disconnect the ide hdd because it will mess with your drive letters in windows ... if you goin raid ( achi mode is only for sata 2 drives with NCQ = native command queing and your drives have to support this mode ) then in the sata drives portion set it to raid ( achi if your drives support it )  in the force part set it to force gen 1 ( for sata 1 drives ) force gen 2 ( for sata 2 drives ) then you will need to set up the raid config in the intel raid config ( its the next post screen telling you press CTRL+I ) set it up reboot reneter bios set hdd priority to intel raid 0 then intsall windows but press f6 ... yes i ran it 2 ways single sata drive and now raided 80's in raid 0 ( i dont have NCQ support yet )

  • MSI Z97 PC Mate A2 error

    Hello guys few days ago i build my very first pc ever. Never done this before so i decided to do it myself and surprisingly i was able to do it. After carefully going thru everything and spending half of my saturday the pc was ready to launch. Plugged the power cable and turn on the power button the pc started without a problem but, as i was cheesing over the fact that i build my on computer i noticed that the monitor shows a black screen with the numbers 90 99 and A2 at the bottom right corner. Immediately i shut it down as i thought i did something wrong and i was scared that i might break something. After i shut down the pc i went to the web and look for this 90 99 A2 thing as i had no idea what was it or is it supposed to be there. Found quite a lot of stuff and by the things i saw it was some kind of an HDD problem or something like this, few articles said that i should play around with the sata ports and cables change them and see if anything works and i did. Before that the pc wouldn't even go into the bios screen but, after messing around a bit with the ports i was able to enter the bios. From then i enter the expolerer mode to see if everything is ok. After the bios entering i restarted the pc again few times all with the same end getting that 90 99 a2 thing at the bottom and nothing else. Swapped the cables again from sata port 2 to 1 but this time i plugged my flash with my windows on it and it booted without a problem from the first try. The windows was installed normally, after that i went to the MSI site and the first thing i tried to do was updating the bios but i didn't let me getting some kind of an error so i decided to leave it like this. Next thing i did is downloading every driver for the motherboard installed everything without a problem.The pc is running now i download some games all run smoothly without a problem but i restarted the pc 2 times after that and i still get that thing on the right bottom corner for like a 5 sec or less after that the bios screen and windows start up.My concern is is this normal should i be worried that my pc will stop running at some point if i keep playing games and using it or should i go to a repair am really scared guys i don't wanna break my pc i just go it.
    P.S sry for the insanely long thread but am really worried that my pc will stop working at some point :( so please guys help me THANK YOU !!

    The code at the right bottom of the screen are perfectly normal and just report BIOS initialization stages. Unless BIOS hang at one of them there is no problem.
    No need to worry about anything but you might want to monitor temperatures, voltages etc.
    My favorite is HWiNFO
    Other programs: HWMonitor, RealTemp,Core Temp.
    If you wish you can run stability tests like: MemTest86, OCCT, or Prime 95

  • Z97 Gaming 7 New build

    Hi All
    Old user (mechwookie) here, seeking maybe a little guidance.
    I'm finally getting a enw build from my trusty P35 Neo3 FR and Q6600 combo.
    It will consist of:
    Z97 Gaming 7 mobo
    i5 4690 (not sure if going for the K version yet)
    16gb DDr3 (probably will stick with stock speed 1600mhz Ram) Geil Black Dragon Ram
    MSI GTX 960 2gb OC VGA card
    I'll be retaining my current drives and PSU (which is less than 1yr old)
    Novatech Powerstation V2 600w Modular
    Samsung 840 Evo 120gb
    WD 1tb 7200 (main storage/backup)
    Samsung Spinpoint 200gb 7200 (photo's and music)
    Samsung Spinpoint F2 500gb 7200 (video)
    Cooling the CPU will be a Corsair H60 unit, all enclosed in my current case, a Bitfenix Comrade case.
    Now I currently have 3 120mm fans providing airflow (2 filtered to the front intake, 1 exhaust)to my Arctic Cooling Freezer 13 Pro on the Q6600.
    The fans are currently a mish mash of types. The 120 original exhaust that came with the Comrade, an old Akasa 120 (at least 4 yrs old) and a Cougar CF-V12HP PWM fan.
    Now when I do build this, because of where its going and what i can physically do for airflow, I will set up a push pull on the H60, having it as an exhaust fan while having two new fans in the front as intake again.
    so, question is::::
    Am I likely to get any issues running two Cougar CF-V12HP's off a splitter from a single fan header from the Gaming 7 as i'd like to control them from the bios?
    Also, is it worth getting the 2 intake fans as PWM for quietness at low rpm, or just have two non PWM's which will mean they end up likely at full speed unless i set then at a lower level in the bios...?

    Well, PWM fans ordered.
    now i need to finalise the rest.
    Now looking at changing the Ram and cpu to
    16 gb dual channel Kingston HyperX Savage 2400Mhz
    i5 4690K
    It will give me some room to play with the OC if i should then wish.
    It also bumps me from under £570 ish to £610
    As for the brand, I couldn't really tell you the exact brand they use, Novatech is the supplier who have a PSU branded for them to retail.
    Have seen a post that mentions they might be what used to be the OCZ Modstream psu's, but cannot confirm this.
    And this is it:

  • MSI Big Bang-XPower New Build Compatibility Questons

    I am doing my first build, and do not see several components I have selected (some already purchased) for my new system in the MSI compatibility literature for the Motherboard.  Can someone please advise if any of the below components will cause issues?  I have done much research and believe I am OK, but would like to have confirmation before proceeding.  As an FYI, I will be doing video editing with the new system:
    1.) Motherboard:  MSI Big Bang-XPower LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard (purchased)
    2.) Video Card:  MSI N470GTX Twin Frozr II GeForce GTX 470 (Fermi) 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card (purchased)
    3.) OS Drive:  Western Digital VelociRaptor WD6000HLHX 600GB 10000 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive (purchased)
         (I will also have four 1TB drives in raid "10" - 7200 RPM Western Digital SATA 3.0 Gb/s for data storage, working files, etc.) (to be purchased)
    4.) CPU:  Intel Core i7-950 Bloomfield 3.06GHz LGA 1366 130W Quad-Core Processor BX80601950 (purchased)
    5.) Memory:  This one I would like confirmation on but I believe it will work (I like that it is Cas Latency 7 and know I will pay a few more $ for this):
    G.SKILL Trident+ Turbulence II 12GB (3 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL7T-12GBTDD
    DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Timing 7-8-7-24 Cas Latency 7
    Voltage: 1.65V
    Multi-channel Kit: Triple Channel Kit
    Timing: 7-8-7-24
    Model #: F3-12800CL7T-12GBTDD
    Item #: N82E16820231381
    6.) OS:  Windows 7 Ultimate (purchased)
    7.) The other items are fairly straight forward.
    Any feedback on the above will be greatly appreciated, especially the memory.

    I have two follow-up items from the above (one power supply and one RAM):
    1.) I Am between the following 2 power supplies:
    - CORSAIR HX Series CMPSU-850HX 850W ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.91 80 PLUS SILVER Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply ($169.99)
    - CORSAIR Professional Series AX850 850W ATX12V v2.31 / EPS12V v2.92 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply ($194.99)
    I am leaning toward the first one, I do not believe the second is worth $25 more - comments???
    2.) I spent another few hours on RAM selection today.  This is driving my crazy...
    I spent time today with Intel concerning RAM for the Intel Core i7-950 Bloomfield - here is a cc of my log (they obviously have only one recommendation):
    You are now chatting with 'Allan'
    Allan: Hello. Thank you for using the Intel Customer Support chat service. We are glad to be of service. How can I help you today?
    sldwaa: I just purchased in i7-950 Bloomfield and am in the process of purchasing the RAM. I have an MSI Big Bang X-Power MOBO and am running Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit. I have read many posts and Intel spec sheets and I understand Intel does not recommend anything other than 1066 / 1.5v VDIMM. Now for my question as I am new to purchasing ram and building PCs.  Here are my questions:
    1.) I am deciding between 1066 and 1600. The most posts recommend 1600.  The obvious alternative is the Intel recommended 1066.  I believe if I do not over clock, 1066 will be the ticket.  If I buy the 1600, then I can only achieve this by over clocking - correct?
    2.) If I buy 1600 and do not over clock, it will perform at 1066 without any negative effects - is this correct?  This is assuming XMP is not enabled.  I will not be a heavy over clocker, but want the capability just in case.
    Allan: the processor supports DDR3-800/1066 at 1.5V
    Allan: no other memory is supported... no matter if the board supports 1600 or even 2000mhz
    Allan: I remind you that the memory controller is on the processor, this is not integrated on the board
    sldwaa: Understood. Follow up question - If I purchase 1066 with the fastest CAS Latency I can find (possibly 7), can I over clock the 1066 (understanding the negative potential effects) or would I still need the 1600 to achieve any over clocking capability?
    Allan: I am afraid I cannot answer that... I cannot comment anything about over clocking
    Allan: you will need to search this information on Internet
    sldwaa: OK - to summarize you only recommend 1066 at 1.5VDIMM. Anything else, I am on my own, including risks of overheating and instability = correct?
    Allan: that is exactly correct
    Allan: Intel recommends DDR3-800/1066 at 1.5V
    That being said, I guess I am between 1066 with the lowest CAS Letency I can find at 3x4GB, or go with the 1600 (I researched and agree 3x4GB is better than 6x2GB).  As intel is against the second, based on what I am reading, I am leaning toward 1066.  If so, can I overclock the 1066 to something higher or is this the max speed?  Help!

  • MSI (MBOX_PM8M2-V) BAREBONE, NEW BUILD

    I have been very AMD satisfied so far, So I am new to pentium
    I did have one pentium/VIA system (MY FIRST) many years ago which I learnt greatly from, Went to AMD/N-VIDIA and have not looked back since with no major troubles
    I have just purchased a new in the box Barebone system (MBOX_PM8M2-V) for $65.00AU NEW!!! (delivered)
    I have done really well lately purchasing top MSI stuff at excellent prices, Just a lucky run maybe, I'm starting to become a bit of an MSI collector/horder, Maybe a great new topic, list your collection?
    http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=MBOX_PM8M2-V&class=npc
    I'm unable to find it in the MSI.tw site (english/taiwan), any links?
    I have read a few threads about the (mentioned) board and barebones setup, And would like some opinions and a few questions answered if thats OK
    I would like to know firstly how long has this system been available? and is it still available? (retail)
    What CPU would be recommended, At any budget level
    The system will most likely be used by a friend as a spare/backup system to run a security capture card setup (RAPIDOS) and burning discs, storage etc, But I will be sorting it out for him
    I have also just purchased for $20.00 delivered the following New in the box  MSI RX300HM-TD128ELF
    Would this card be a good contender to run smoothly in this system, Just found this
    Note: Due to on-board memory architecture, this video card does not support dual monitors.
    Please explain??? (Above) Sorry to get a bit off topic
    http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=RX300HM-TD128ELF&class=vga
    Any pro's or cons, opinions, warnings etc would be appreciated, Im confident it will all go smoothly as with all (but one) MSI systems I have setup and would just like some reccomendations, details/pointers etc, That I can come back to easily if needed
      Thanks All

    Gee looks like I got a bargain though anyway, $65.00AU delivered, Thats a bargain compared to the average price of $85.00US + postage that I found

  • Z97 PC MATE and Soundcard.

    I upgraded to this board and an Intel G3258 CPU. Everything is up and running except for my sound. My sound card is enabled in the bios. I've tried loading the audio drivers that came with the motherboard. I've tried using the realtek drivers on their web site. I've tried using the drivers on MSI web site. I don't see anything that says realtek or MSI for sound in the device manager. I do see three things listed under sound video and game controllers. One of them is a Playon adapter. The other is for my Graphics Adapter. It says AMD High Definition audio device. The other just says High Definition Audio Device. I noticed in Windows 7 there is a red x on the speaker down by the time. When I click on it, it says there is no Audio Output device installed. I was worried that my sound card had failed. I booted to a Ubuntu disk and sound worked there. So I'm fairly confident the sound card isn't bad.
    I did some snooping on the internet and tried to restart the Windows audio Service. This didn't seem to do any good. I ran ccleaner and tried to clean things up a little. Didn't seem to help. I wondered if it was a driver clean problem. But I couldn't find anything I trusted to clean my drivers. I also removed the PCI device in the device manager and forced windows to re-detect pretty much everything.
    At this point the only thing I can think of doing is a clean load of windows. I will admit I didn't do that to begin with when I did the motherboard swap. I was hoping to avoid it, but in the end it might be the best option. Anyone have any thoughts, or has anyone defeated this issue before?

    The only time when you don't really have to reinstall Windows is for example, if you would swap from MSI Z97 Gaming 5 to Z97 Gaming 9. Or if you get a replacement if it failed to work (so you get back same one). Else it is rather recommended to reinstall Windows, as new drivers has to apply etc..

  • Z97 PC MATE - Second GPU will not display / black screen

    Using Z97 PC MATE with 2 nvidia cards (GeForce GTX970 and GeForce GETX750ti). My goal is to use the 750ti for dual display with the 970 reserved for compute in a 3D software package (houdini simulations). If both cards are installed on the mobo and one monitor is plugged into the 750ti, it will not display, not even the BIOS screen. Also there is no audio, there is normally a chime when the OS lock screen is reached and that never plays.
    The 750ti is plugged into the PCEe 2.0 slot, the 970 the 3.0 slot. Both cards can display in their respective buses by themselves if only one card is installed. If both are installed, the 970 will output a display as expected.  I have also tried an older quadro card in the 2.0 slot and it also defaulted to the 970 in the 3.0 slot. With one display plugged into the 970, and one in the 750ti I have gotten an image to display on the 750ti. But never with only one monitor plugged into the 750 attempting to use that card as the main display.
    I have used m flash to update the bios to 4.6, but I never used the disc which came with the mobo to update. I thought maybe there is a GPU display priority in the BIOS but I'm not seeing it. I see there is a way to prioritize UEFI and legacy, and Gen1, 2 or 3, but don't know how that should be set up for this (if that is the problem). I would think if that were the case though the audio at the lock screen would still play, but I don't know.
    My current nvidia driver version is 342.22, I am using Ubuntu 14.04 as linux OS operates better with the software I am using. I have also posted to the Ubuntu forums about this, but thought I would post here because the BIOS screen doesn't display which makes me think it could be hardware related. Although all of the hardware is detected properly and appears to be functioning as expected.
    This issue was reproduced with and without the HDD connected. 
    Hardware:
    i7 4790k
    EVGA GTX970 and EVGA GTX750ti
    Z97 PC MATE
    32gb PNY DDR3-1866 240-pin DIMM
    Antec Truepower Classic 750w gold certified
    PNY Optima 480gb SSD  - PNY SSD7SC480GOPT-RB
    Hitachi 2TB ultrastar HDD
    I am not sure at this point how to continue troubleshooting this issue, or if this is not possible for this mobo and I just didn't recognize that. One test I was considering is putting the 970 in my old computer (MSI 970FX-GD70) and seeing if the results are the same. Will post any additional required information.
    thanks! 

    Did you install your graphic driver when both vgas are on? Let the driver detect both vga then you can just switch cable and display well. Use the latest 344.65 driver. As for the 3D package, you need to make sure the software support or can change the settings that which vga to compute.
    But there's one thing I need to make sure first, does your vga work with only one vga on pcie 2.0 slot? Just wanna be sure it's not faulty slot...

  • MSI Z97-G45 Gaming can not POST or enter BIOS but has display

    Hi
    First post here and sadly a technical one. I just bought the following hardware:
    - MSI Z97-G45 GAMING MoBo (no idea on BIOS since I cannot enter it at all)
    - Intel Core i5 4690K s1150
    - 16GB (2x8GB) Patriot Viper 3 Black Mamba 1600MHz CL9 DDR3 Dual/Quad Channel Kit [PV316G160C9K]
    - Corsair CX750M PSU
    and installed the hardware with the following old hardware that I am carrying over:
    - 2 X Hitachi 1TB Sata HDD
    - 2 X GTX 275 SLI
    To begin with, my existing drives were setup as RAID 0 and has a installed Windows 7 64-bit on there already. I unregistered the Product key before taking it all apart with the idea of registering it again once the new hardware was all together.
    So basically, when I received all the new parts yesterday and put them all in. Upon powering on, I see the MSI Dragon logo fullscreen with the option to press DEL or F11. I let it continue without pressing any key to see how it goes. After the dergaon logo, all I get is "Missing Operating System" at the top which did not really worry me and I assumed it would be realted to the Raid not setup (right?)
    So I rebooted the PC and decided to press DEL to enter BIOS. However, every time I want to enter the BIOS the screen turns black! The display is still functional though from what I can tell (the display does not lose signal).
    Following that, I reset the CMOS from behind by pressing the button with a pen tip. Starting the PC again now gives me a display of all my hardware that it detected (correct CPU, Correct amount of ram, correct HDD etc...). It also gives me two options... F1 to Enter setup or F2 to Continue. Pressing F1 displays the text "Entering Setup..." at the bottom but again it fails to enter the BIOS (it freezes on the above screen - does not turn black this time) and choosing F2 to Continue freezes as well.
    I have tried to boot up with the following changes:
    - No GPU and use on board VGA only
    - One stick of ram in multiple slots
    - No HDDs connected at all
    - I've checked the CPU to make sure no bent pins
    - Reconnected the PSU cables into the motherboard
    I should also mention that when I test it on the bare minimum (CPU, PSU, 1 stick of ram) I get A9 in the lower corner before the dragon logo appears.
    Right now I am out of ideas and any suggestions would be helpful or at least some insight in what problems I described may indicate. Thanks!

    Quote from: Bernhard on 08-July-14, 19:43:46
    Can you post your board's serial number. This contains the manufacture date. From that one could deduce the BIOS version on that board.
    As for the windows installation from your previous system, you would be very lucky if you were able to boot with that. Perhaps force safe mode if and when you are able to boot, and then try installing the new drivers. The problem is that with the old drivers still in the boot menu, you are probably heading down a slippery slope trying to re-use it. A clean installation would be advised.
    Whatever is on the HDD now should however not prevent you from getting into the BIOS.
    The fact that your CPU is recognised by its make doesn't mean that its supported. The CPU ID is probably read by the BIOS, but the microcode of the CPU may be missing in the BIOS support. I am trying to think of possible reasons here, and these are just some of my current ideas as to why you may not be able to get into the BIOS.
    Have you tried your MB outside the case yet, i.e. on a non conductive surface, i.e. wood or cardboard to eliminate any chances of a potential short?
    Also, you may want to check your CPU seating again and carefully inspect the CPU socket pins to ensure that none were bent or are not making proper contact
    Yep here is the serial number: 601-7821-050B1405415963
    Yeah I didn't really expect to have too much luck with the original windows 7 installation but I had no choice since my last computer failed to power on (faulty PSU I suspected).
    However, as you also mentioned, I do not think it would prevent me from reaching the BIOS setup.
    Hopefully the above serial can make some sense for you but I do recall some sort of date after a CMOS reset at the top... I think it was 21 April or May 2014 or so. This was next to the following: E7821IMS v2.0.
    Once I get home, I will try a few things like you suggested but trying to get as much info as I can before I get home so I have a few things to try.
    Thanks again!
    EDIT - as a side note, I also contacted the Online Retailer I got it from and the first response from them was that the DEBUG "A9" code meant it was the RAM not fully inserted. That is another thing I have to be 100% sure of but I am fairly sure it was fully clicked in on both sides... but you never know!

    Many thanks

  • Msi z97 gaming motherboard displays debug led D0 (00) .

    Hello all.
    I urgently need some advice.
     I recently bought a msi z97 gaming 5 motherboard and I had it installed into my rig.  Everything was working fine. I decided to do some cable management in my case today and afterwards wanted to switch my pc on to find it dead. I switched off the power and made sure that I discharged all electrostatic power.
    The psu delivers power to the board as all the case fans spin, the light trail lights up an my fan controller works.
    My peripherals (key board,  mouse) don't   light, as well as my monitor. There is ia also no boot beeps.
    The debug led displays a code 00 which is  not in the manual. I already tried removing the cmos batery  and also cleared the cmos with the cmos jumper en still nothing.
    I even removed both my ram modules and still no boot beeps.
    If there is someone out there please help... 

    i got the same issue by chance few days ago 00 error but with dual bios chip board.
    and able to fix it,
    i narrow it down that somehow the bios chip selection wasn't switched ..
    even after power off, and flip the switch i meet 00 error and no LED on bios chip has light
    switching to the secondary bios chip worked fine,
    then when i flip the bios chip while the system was booted, switching was successfully,
    and at next power off and power up was booting with the other bios chip fine and no longer 00 error
    however for your board, i see board has 1 bios chip only
    im not sure if would have bios chip led indicator or not..
    checking high res image of your board at: https://media.msi.com/main.php?g2_itemId=110010&g2_imageViewsIndex=1
    think i can see the led indicator side by side to JBAT1
    so your board probably also should have bios chip led indicator
    and based on your second photo that you provided: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=253991.0;attach=22345;image
    i don't see this LED to light... it should be near to 00 debug code
    so probably bios chip doesn't kick in for some reason...
    and i don't know how this can be fixed since your board don't have dual bios chips..
    looks like something become damaged when you tried to re-arrange your cables..
    else don't have idea what else you can try, except to rma the board

  • New MSI Z97 Gaming 7 and 4690K Overclocking

    I have finally received my MSI Z97 Gaming 7 and 4690k earlier this week.
    When I did the overclock Genie it took me up to 3.9mhz but believe this can be easily overclocked higher manually. I am fairly new to overclocking. However, can't seem to find the ability to manually overclock this in the BIOS.
    Any ideas where/how to do this or if there is an online guide. Also has a Noctua NH-D14 cooling the CPU.

    First of all you disable OC Genie, it is useless for people that want MORE oc than it gives you.
    Here is forum's OC guide:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=40413.0
    And other forum's OC guide:
    http://www.neoseeker.com/Articles/Hardware/Guides/OCguide/
    I don't overclock (see my spec) so I can't provide you with more details but can guide you to a good link

  • New MSI Z97 Gaming 3 - very strange audio issues

    (sorry for the long post)
    Hi, I recently bought some computer parts from Newegg and built my first gaming pc yesterday, but when everything was finished setting up I noticed a major issue with the audio. Both the headphone jack on the motherboard and the headphone jack from the front panel connector aren't working correctly.
    If I plug in my headphones into the motherboard jack, the audio level is REALLY low. Like, even if I turn up the volume to 100% it sounds like it's only at 10%. I looked through the volume settings for the headphones and didn't notice anything wrong. Then I tried updating my drivers with the cd and ran the live update utility, but nothing changed. Also, the audio will sometimes make distorted/static sounds when the music itself is loud, yet I can still barely hear the music.
    The front panel jack is even worse! The sound is much more distorted/static-y when I plug in my headphones there.
    I know it's not my headphones fault because they work fine on my laptop. Even if I plug in a different pair, I still get the same low volume and static.
    I know the front panel issue is not because of the case. If I put the motherboard in an old HP case and plug in my headphones into the front panel on this case, same issue. (I know the old case normally works fine).
    I even tried running a linux live usb in case it was something wrong with Windows. It still had the same issues.
    My specs:
    MSI Z97 Gaming 3 ATX LGA1150
    Intel Core i5-4590
    MSI GeForce GTX 970
    Corsair Vengeance Pro 8GB
    WD Blue 1TB
    XFX XTR Series 550W
    Windows 8.1 Pro
    I would really appreciate some help. It seems like I've tried everything. 

    Hi
    What is the BIOS version your board currently has?
    Try without graphics card and with single RAM stick.
    You could also try out of the case on non conductive surface like wooden table or motherboard box, and see if it works then. Might be something in either cases shortening the board.
