Virus 'flagged' file in Windows 7 Bios Update...HELP !!

I just finished updating some Windows 7 Bios files....one of the files: C:\PROGRAM FILES\LENOVO\SYSTEM UPDATE\UNCSERVER.EXE" was flagged as Malware by my AVG Virus program and I put it in the Virus Vault.
Then the installation of that update showed it couldn't find that flagged file and so cancelled that update.
I continued on with the other updates and installed them, BUT I wonder if that file is really Malware and whether to restore it and try that update again.
I don't want to infect my computer with a virus, but I wonder if a Windows Update would contain a contaminated file...
HELP !!!

Hello,
You did not say what version of the signature database is being used by your antivirus software, or the name of the threat it detected, so it is difficult to tell for certain, but I uploaded the UNCSERVER.EXE file from my ThinkPad W510 to VirusTotal, a multi-engine virus scanning service, and it reported the file as being clean. Report here.
I suspect it is a false positive alarm, but you should check with your antivirus vendor's own technical support department to confirm.

First I don't think you or anyone should put up with having only 3 channel memory when they paid for 4. If the board or CPU are faulty they should be replaced.
You can start with MemTest86 or MemTest86+. MemTest86 has multi CPU test option that is more real life like, I don't know about MemTest86+, haven't used it for quite long time.
Before using Prime95, make sure you have CPU/Core temperature monitoring software such as RealTemp, Core Temp, HWiNFO, or CPUID HWMonitor.
Prime95, I assume th 64-bit version, but this create a lot of heat, what cooler do you have?
You can choose to run 6 threads instead of 12, it should be stressfull enough, also you can add the line Code: [Select]
CpuSupportsFMA3=0 to local.txt to disable FMA3 instructions that are more stressful on the CPU but not necessarily on memory.
If it is still too hot (>70c) add Code: [Select]
CpuSupportsAVX=0Do not close the window to stop the test, select exit from the file menu.
Or you can try OCCT which is all-in-one, stress + monitoring in one program. Select Large Data Set to stress memory. It also runs somewhat cooler than Prime95.
trust me i agree i talked to msi support and got no help they just kept telling me they know about the issuse and should have a fix for it soon, But yet i have seen many people say they have the same problem over 5 months now....... So i just talked to amazon and they said no problem they will give me a refund so now i need to find a good board to work with my i7 5820k 2011-3 pcu

HP DV4-1114NR bricked by HP's own bios update help plz and thank you

Hello friends, I have a HP dv4-1114nr, I downloaded the Bios update from hp and guess what? it bricked the laptop. I have read several forums on how to fix this, i have gotten as far as attempting to restore the bios, renaming the bios and putting it on a flash drive... The windows+ B key is definitely the way to launch recovery, with my bios i am not sure what to rename the file and also is it a requirement that it be on a small usb drive and that it be FAT format only? any help would be greatly appriciated. I have been working on it for weeks now... Thank you and god bless..

If the HP_TOOLS partition is still on the hard drive, it may contain a copy of the original bios that was replaced by the newer one.
To recover the bios from the HP_TOOLS partition hold Win+B down while you power up, continue holding Win+B until you hear some beep(s) then let up, it may take some time to recovery and may show no signs of activity or mesaages.
If Win +B does not work try all 4 arrow keys.
Usually the bios file name must match the motherboard model number.

Msi z97 gaming 5 bios update help

Hello I recently purchased the msi z97 gaming 5 motherboard. It was working fine it came with bios version 1.0 and I wanted to update it. I downloaded the latest 1.5 bios from msi website copied to usb flash drive and flashed it using mflash. Computer powers on but black screen wont do nothing. I cleared cmos and battery and still nothing so I am pretty sure its bricked. I am going to store to exchange it for another one but I want to be able to safely update the bios without bricking again. I usually dont update bios unless needed but i need at least 1.2 bios to fully support the devils canyon cpu. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I read about the usb flashing tool in forum but also read that bios+me need to be flashed and I don't know if that program is up to date and will flash both files? I really appreciate it if someone helped thanks in advance.

Also does anyone know if it is dangerous to update the bios with a 4690k devils canyon cpu since it is not officially supported until 1.2? Is that why my first bios flash was bricked? I would hate to go and borrow another cpu just to update the bios but if I have to I will. Sorry for all the questions but I need to get my bios updated and I will not update it until I am sure of all these things. Thanks to anyone who answers these questions.

T43 - BIOS Update Help

Hello,
First time poster and I did the "search" funciton to find an answer but to no avail. I have exhausted all the things online that I can dig up and would appreciate some guidance.
I need to admit first and foremost, I am not as techy as I'd like to be. I just decided today to update some stuff to my Thinkpad T43 (LONG overdue...and I do mean long). I am still running on the BIOS version 1.01. Naive me thought that my laptop would update itself without me having to do anything.
So today, I updated my ThinkVantage to version 3.14 and was successful doing so. I then did a "system update" to get all the necessary and critical updates for my T43. When I tried to update to BIOS version 1.29, I followed all the necessary steps (listed on the Lenovo Support section). At a certain point (each time), I would get a BIOS Update Error Message "The system power management is disabled. The Process has been canceled."
I have no clue what this means. I went to my power management (in the Control Panel) and can't seem to find how I can "enable" it.
I could sure use some advise and steps in order to correct this issue and update my BIOS version.
Thank you,
nova_grrl

Hello I am also getting this error: "The system power management is disabled. The process has been canceled."
My set up: ThinkPad T41 2378 DLU, running XP home. Current Embedded Controller version 3.01. Current Bios 3.19.
I am actually attempting to do a double update: Bios and Embedded Controller.
Lenovo's support pages are contradictory on which to update first (The Embedded Controller READ ME page states: "If you need to update the BIOS as well as the Embedded Controller Program, update Embedded Controller Program first." http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/1rhj10ud.txt ; while the Bios Update READ ME page states the opposite: "If you need to update Embedded Controller Program as well as the BIOS, update BIOS first." http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/1ruj37us.txt)
I have chosen to update the Embedded Controller first because of what I have read on the Bios Update READ ME page: "This BIOS version will only work with Embedded Controller Program Version 3.04 (or higher)", while the Embedded Controller page reads: "This version of Embedded Controller Program will only work with BIOS Version 3.13 (or higher)". I have the later not the former.
The embedded controller download page does not have a non diskette version, see http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS000738#. As you know, my laptop does not have a floppy diskette drive. In order to extract the 1rhj10ud.exe file I used the Virtual Floppy Drive (VFD) console. At the prompt I give the "start" command, followed by the "open" command to create a virtual floppy drive. All is good to here.
I run the 1rhj10ud.exe file by double clicking in my file browser. I am prompted to "Press ENTER to continue (read License agreement)". I go through the pages and finally type Y to agree to the terms. This takes me to a screen that states : "Insert a blank high-density diskette in drive a:. Press ENTER to extract,..." I press enter and get the following message: "100 percent Extraction Complete Press Y to do another copy" I press enter and the 3 1/2 Floppy appears in my file browser as (A drive. Inside A: I double click on the UPDTFLSH file which opens another dos window. I enter my "Supervisor Password". Then say "Yes" to the warning that I am about to update my Controller, and "Enter" after the next warning stating that the AC adaptor must be connected.
At this point I get an error message: "The system power managment is disabled. The process has been canceled."
I went back and rebooted. Went into the Bios Power controls and Disabled both the "Hybernate by Timer" and the "Timer wake with Batterh Operation" functions. And followed the above steps only to get the same error. In XP /Control Panel/Power Options Properties, I put the "Turn off monitor" and "Turn off disks" to "Never". Still the same error!
I do not know what to do now to carry on with this update. Thank you for any suggestions.

P4N Diamond SATA Problem after Bios Update HELP!

I updated the bios correctly & now my SATA harddrive won't recognize.I put the drive in another pc (with the exact same setup..a p4n diamond etc) and it works no problem.The bios settings are set exactly as they were before the flash as i wrote them down!.
I have noticed there is an extra setting added in the bios ,something in the cell menu named CPU ratio unlock.
I have also noticed that my other pc (the working one) will no longer connect to the net if my network cable is plugged in my router from the pc with the bios update.As soon as i unplug the cable it connects.
I got the latest bios for the board is there something different in the bios from previously i need to do?
Like i says the bios settings i have put exactly the same as they were before the update.My windows (on the SATA drive) booted fine before the update and now it won't.
I updated the bios correctly and cleared cmos afterwards.Everything i should have done i am guessing i done.
Can somebody please help me on this.
Thanks
Decided to reflash the bios to version 1.4
Now the harddrive is recognised but windows will not boot (blue screen before it boots with the usual to prevent damage to your computer etc etc)
I am now formatting the harddrive & reinstalling windows.It seems MSI have issues with bios updates for this board which they should maybe bring out a new bios fixing this problem as it sure is a problem.

RE flashing the bios.I did this to try and fix a problem with windows not turning off when shutting down.I pc does the other does not & both have the same board and now the same version bios & also a freshly installed windows.I noticed power options in windows are not the same.How can this be.The boards are the same.
Anyway here are the specs of pc1 & pc2:-
pc1 (the working fine pc):-
P4N diamond bios ver 1.40
P4 SKT 775 Prescott 3.6ghz
2gb kingston ddr2 (dual channel)
1x 200gb maxtor IDE hd
2x 160gb maxtor SATA hd
Ati Radeon x600 gfx
pc2
P4N diamond bios ver 1.40
P4 SKT 775 Prescott 3.4ghz
512mb crucial ddr2 (1 stick single channel)
1x SATA2 16mb cache hd
nvidia quadro gfx
As you can see,not much difference between the 2.

Will BIOS update help wtih sound problem?

I have a problem getting sound working with linux on a 3000 (an N200 0769 in my case) that many other people have reported: sound only works with ACPI off.
I asked for help on the Mandriva forums and was told to check if there are any relevant BIOS updates. the readme for the latest BIOS does not list any changes to do with either sound or ACPI so it appears unlikely.
However, my BIOS reports itself (during bootup) as 2.03, and it appears to be 68ET31WW. This does not appear in the summary of changes in the readme which jumps from 1.02 to 2.02!
Does anyone know what has changed between 2.03/68ET31WW and the latest (3.03/68ET35WW)?

It hasn't helped my CMX 3200C2.. same issues as you describe.. no joy at anything other than slow...

Download/Open .pdf files with Windows 8.1 - Help needed urgently!

Hi, all. I hope this is not a stupid question, but can someone please help with downloading/opening .pdf files?
I am running Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, latest version (no updates available) on a Windows 8.1 platform. When I attempt to download a .pdf file (ANY .pdf file!), my system gives me this error message -
"Adobe Acrobat does not support Internet Explorer's 64-bit mode. Either install the latest version of Adobe Reader, or disable 64-bit mode in Internet Explorer"
I find this baffling. If I could find a later version of Reader than what I have, I would like to try it - but, Adobe updates tells me I have the latest version of Reader. Also, as above, I have the latest version of Acrobat - if Reader could support 64-bit, surely Acrobat XI Pro could?
Can some kind person please help?

Hi Peter,
(I updated your title, so now help is indeed, "needed," and not "nedded." Been there myself plenty of times.)
In any case, is it possible that you're running Reader X, and have the latest updates of that? If so, please consider downloading Reader XI, and make sure you're running version 11.0.07. And, this document offers instructions for setting up your browser to display PDFs when you're using Acrobat XI or Reader XI: Acrobat Help | Display PDF in browser | Acrobat, Reader XI
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

BIOS Update help, please?

I just updated my processor from an AMD Athlon 64 FX-55 to an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ and it isn't being recognized as a dual core processor in Windows. Everything else is working fine except for that. As I understand it, I need to update the BIOS to correct that.
I've been reading here and the MSI instructions and there seems to be several sets of instructions for flashing the BIOS most of which directly conflict with each other with instructions about extracting the BIOS file to a floppy or extracting it to the HD? Booting with a Win98 floppy or boot with a WinXP-prepared MS DOS floppy (I don't have any Win98 machines nor do I have any friends with win98 machines)? Using WinFlash? Setting jumpers (I don't see jumpers on my board Guide)?
I would so appreciate it if it were possible to get a single, coherent, set of instructions for flashing the BIOS so I don't completely hose my system?
I have overclocked or done anything else unusual. I do have RAID drives in 0+1 configuration and everything is formatted to NTFS, if that matters.
Hopefully everything else is in the signature. If other information is needed, please just ask.
Thanks!

Here some differant choises for boot-disks ( for example win98 floppy )
http://www.bootdisk.com/
I´ve had no failures using std. DOS update.
http://www.msi.com.tw/html/support/bios/note/ntfs.htm
but as you say....there are more ways in doing it.

PS.Edit. Live update is not recommended, because higher rate of failures.

600x bios update help needed

i have a 600x, well its my daughters, but having a problem with the sound from speakers, i would like to try updating the bios, but all the updates i can find are for floppies, this machine doesnt have a floppy drive, so is there any other way to update the bios.

First things first. Most likely a newer version of the BIOS will not address the problem you think you have. So, it seems there is another reason for the problem. In checking the specs for that model, it shows there to be a 300w power supply. That will limit the choices for a video card upgrade. What is/was the new card that you tried?
Next, I see that you have an Intel i7 processor. In many posts from users trying to the change the video cards on these type systems, it is a real problem. For whatever reason, ( I have not seen a resolution as to why ) trying to change the video cards and getting a performance improvement is troublesome, to say the least. The delicate balance between the video card and the processor on these is easily thrown off, I do not know the reason or the solution. Most users give up and leave it as is.
I know, not a help. I too, will track this discussion to see if there is a resolution so I can help someone else down the road. Good luck!!!

So i bought a new graphics card, tried installing it and it wont work, and when asking around i have been told that what i need to do is update my BIOS. However, there are no updates available under the product page for my desktop, the p6-2141eo.

The current BIOS is ami 7.16
Would appreciate any help i can get!

Bios update on windows 7?

Hi
Ideas how to get the windows bios updater work on windows 7?
I my case: pr60v200.exe
or.. How to update from an USB stick?
Thanks

Hi
Your question is a little bit confusing but if you install the BIOS update nothing will happen on XP. If you make a dual boot system you can still boot from XP and Windows 7 too.
As Lars already wrote the BIOS has nothing to do with OS that you install. ;)
Furthermore there is no BIOS update that only works with Windows 7. This is not known to me. The only difference is that for some notebooks are BIOS versions for 32bit OS and 64bit OS. If you install Windows 7 32bit and XP is 32bit everything will work properly on both OS.

When the System Disk protection is active, What happens to the virus pattern file?

Hello! all.
I evaluate MPS2012 in our test environment in which we don't have connection to Internet.
I understand that the change on the system drive is reset When system drive protection is effective.
But I would like to except both Virus pattern files and Windows update from this protection.
Can these update avoid resetting in MPS2012 ?

Good morning,
IF your Hard Drive does crash, anything contained on the drive will be potentially lost, this includes personal data files, applications, serial numbers, preferences, and so on. To prevent this data loss you should back up all important information, such as personal data files, serial numbers, preferences to either your [.Mac|http://www.mac.com] Account or other backup source to insure that you can continue to use your computer as normal.
Most applications can be recovered through the developer's site (non-commercial) and they will most of the time email you your license information back to the address you have registered with them so it isn't that large of a deal, however, backups are always important!
Hope this helps! 

Bios update gone bad

I have a T60 and I just tried to update the BIOS using the following utility from Lenovo:
Version:                  7IET33WW (1.14)
Release Date:        2008/04/25
File link                   7iuj12us.exe
File size                  2,781,304
File description     ThinkPad BIOS update utility
After the utility completed the update, I followed the instructions to restart and verify the version. After hitting F1, I am presented with a lock icon which has a screen beside it, which I believe to be a prompt for a power on password. Not knowing what it is since I never had one set up, I try my windows password and that of my wife's which we use on the computer (set up when we set up the fingerprint log -in). Nothing works. I can hit enter and access the BIOS setup, but no changes can be made in "user mode" (I never set up a Supervisor password either).
I did read/try the solution which Mark_Lenovo (Admin) posted in other threads regarding removing the battery and backup battery, but it did not work. What is funny is that the power on password is only requested when trying to access the BIOS, I can log on and use the computer normally with the fingerprint reader. I just can not access the BIOS.
I am hoping others who had similar problems might have had better guidance on how to proceed. My initial call to Lenovo proved to be less than comforting stating that even the POP can not be reset and can only be fixed by MB replacement at my cost.
Thanks in advance for any help.
System is a T60, type 8743, WinXP, T7200, 2Gb, current BIOS after update 1.14 (7IET33WW) dated 2008-04-16, Embedded Controller Ver 1.07, old BIOS version unknown, system build Dec 2007.

Tecra A7 - After BIOS update it does nothing

Hi all,
I d/l and ran the 'windows' BIOS update for my model of Tecra A7. With power supply in, I watched the update go through all steps including BIOS backup, but at the final step 8 of writing to the BIOS, it looks like it hung. I waited over 2 hours and decide to reboot.
You guessed it, now I have absolutely nothing - no Toshiba screen, no BIOS, nothing.
Is there a way to reset the BIOS or bring back the backup? I don't have the recovery CD (work loaner laptop - no idea where the CD could be). I am making a request for DVD with Toshiba (if in fact it will help me?) but meanwhile any good techies out there? No floppy drive only CDROM.
I'm lookin at my board now, where's the battery? rock on bros.

Hi
First of all the Toshiba recovery disk will not help you. It can only restore the OS (Windows) and has nothing to do with the BIOS.
Furthermore in this case you can do nothing because need help from an authorized service provider. Only authorized technicians can try to reflash the ROM module. Here you can search for nearest:

Good luck! :)
