X79A-GD45 windows 7 freezes during boot after bios upgrade/usb 3.0 drivers inst.

Hello,
After I upgraded my bios from 1.3 to 1.4 I noticed I still had some not properly installed hardware in the computer management screen, so I used live update 5 and found the the Renesas USB3.0 Drivers. The system runs fine, except from a cold start.
When starting the machine, windows freezes on the 4 colour logo, before the usb initializes (this I can tell from the keyboard not lighting up).
A forced reboot does not help. However, going in the bios (to check if all drives are functional) and then booting, does. After this the machine runs fine again.
Now my question is, is this caused by the new bios or by the Renesas USB3.0 Drivers? Or is it something completely different?
Thanks a lot,
Floris

Using LU5 often ends up this way doing UEFI/BIOS updates dead board!
In the future, recommend to use the forum flasher found here with instructions on how to use it; https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=108079.0
After a flash, it is also recommended to remove the power cord from the PSU, remove the battery for awhile, clear CMOS & reset.

I emailed msi technical support they just send me latest bios and latest drivers nothing. I tried to update vga bios nothing. I tried tree different psu all from different vendors guess what nothing. I changed my memory modules nothing. I changed cpu nothing. I tried every bios available nothing.

Freeze during boot after enabling Hyper-V feature in Windows 8

Good day.
I'm using AMD FX 8320 with 990FXA-GD65. After enabling hyper-v my pc freezing during boot. Google told me that it might be issue with USB 3.0 controller, so i disabled it in bios, but result still the same.
Can you please tell me where should i look at?

Hi,
Please try to boot into WinRE and run the Startup Repair option.
Generally speaking, when you add feature like Hyper-V, system would take a long time to get this feature configured. if your computer still stay updates configuration steps, you can use Windows 8.1 installation image to repair system. In system repair mode,
you can access into Command Prompt mode, and check CBS.log under C:\Windows\logs\CBS.
This log file would record Windows installation process, we may find the problem of Hyper-V installation.

Help Please - X200 will not boot after Bios Upgrade - keeps asking for power on password

Hi there,
I am new to this forum and please let me say a big Thank You for your help in advance.
I am using a lenovo thinkpad x200 running windows vista with service pack 1.
The laptop has always been running fine and has never given me any issues. Unfortunately, all this came to an end yesterday when I ran the system assistant which did a round of updates and it prompted me to reflash my bios.
I did what was instructed and closed all open applications and after the laptop restarted, there was a noise from the harddisk (the sound was basically like what happens if the harddisk suddenly loses power). Then, all i got was a black screen, no harddisk acitvity with only the power cable LED and another LED (with the shape of a N tiled at 20 degrees) on.
I searched the forum and did what was suggested in this entry: http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/Blank-screen-after-Bios-Upgrade-on-X200/ta-p/29...
This is what I did so far"
I turned off the power, took out the backup battery and waited for about 30 minutes (repeated this step several times, also removing the harddisk) but to no avail.
I removed the RAM and tried booting and there was that characteristic beeping sound.
I replaced the RAM, redid the CMOS clearing, and now there is the Lenovo startup screen. However, there would be an error code 0271 (no date time) and 0251 (something about default configuration). Then, these disappear and all I am left with is the Bios Power On password prompt. Somehow no matter what I type nothing can be input into the field (and I did not create any password as far as I can remember).
I redid the clearing for the power on password by removing the backup battery as suggested at the bottom of this page http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=migr-59377 but it is no use. Each time I restart, even if I press the blue Think Vantage button or F1 or F11, I still get the same 0271 and 0251 error messages and am left with the power on password prompt.
I am really desperate as I really like my lenovo x200 and there is important data on the laptop. I would appreciate any suggestions on how I can solve this. Its amazing how a simple update can turn into such a disaster. Now i know i should never upgrade or update my Bios (or at least proceed with extreme caution).
Anyone can provide some help to get my laptop workin again?
Thank you very much,
Mark

try reflashing your bios?

K7n2-L wont boot after bios upgrade

I have been very happy with the motherboard since i bought it in april 2003, been very stable and only had minor usb problems. And i finally decided to upgrade the bios from v. 3.7 to v. 4.1.
After the upgrade the machine boots up to the first windows that shows me the memory and the hard disk i have installed. I can also go into BIOS.
But the PC stops when its about to start booting up the HD or CDrom. According to the lights on the D-Bracket its trying to initializing the floppy controller.
There has never been a floppy drive in this PC before(i booted the PC on CDROM when i upgraded the BIOS).
I have tried the following things without success;
installed a floppy drive.
Cleared the CMOS(with the jumper)
Unplugged the cdrom and the hard disk.
Tried every memory configuration.
jumped the safe mode jumper.
It seems to me that i can only fix this by changing the BIOS chip....or the mainboard.
Anyone had this problem?

Azraeliz,
Sounds to me like perhaps you've overlooked a setting in the BIOS
Did you take note of the BIOS settings prior to flashing so you could put the settings back the way they were?
nuckelavee,
I suggest you start your own thread. I have a hard time believing there is no CMOS jumper.
Tried this? ***Starting your K7N2 Delta2 at default settings***

Not booting after BIOS upgrade in T500

I upgraded my T500 from BIOS 3.09 to 3.18 using the windows upgrade utility (6fuj42us.exe?). The upgrade went fine. I rebooted the machine and got the login windows screen (I have windows XP professional). However, the instructions of the BIOS upgrade called to enter into the BIOS and press the F9 key in order to set all the system defaults. After that the machine did not boot. It gives me the initial windows booting screen (windows flags) and then a blue screeen. I downgraded the BIOS to 3.15 using the bootable CD utility (6fuj39uc.iso?). The downgrade went fine. I can get into the BIOS but have exactly the same problem when loading windows. Unfortunately I could not find a similar bootable program for BIOS 3.09 only the windows executable program (6fuj34us.exe?). Is there any fix other than reinstalling windows? Thanks.

Hi malope,
please enter the Bios and check the HDD is switched to compatible mode instead of AHCI Mode.
Maybe than you can start Windows.

Satellite L300 refuses to boot after BIOS upgrade

Hi,
My girlfriend's L300 was lagging terribly so we decided to format C:. We did this with the accompanying XP restore disk.
Then we had to upgrade the drivers. We started the installation of the BIOS upgrade from the Toshiba driver website, went away for a while and when we came back the computer had restarted of itself.
It was stuck in a cycle of the "windows loading" screen and the one with a bottom bar that says press F2 for this or F12 for that. Tried all options in the boot menu, not even safe mode works.
We tried to reformat with the previous method, by inserting XP CD and holding down the 'C' button while starting. We get the familiar 'Windows Setup' screen, and it seems to load all the windows setup files from the CD. But when we get to the installation, we get a blue screen error message. 'A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.....Technical information: ***STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF78D254,0xC0000034,0x00000000,0x00000000)
Nothing seems to work, please help! We really want to save the images, on the D: disk partition.

Hi
Try to set the BIOS to default settings.
You have to access the BIOS and there you could set it to default.
Please check if you can install the OS using the SATA mode -> AHCI and compatible.
If you use AHCI then you have to include the SATA drivers. If you use the compatible mode, then SATA drivers are not needed.
If you want to get access to the HDD before installing the OS in the C partition, then I would recommend booting the notebook using a Windows Live CD like WinPE or BartPe.
Both are live cds which dont need a installation you have to boot from such disk only to get access to the content on the HDD.

Windows 7 not booting after memory upgrade ProBook 6540b

Hi
HP Probook 6540b
Windows 7 Professional 64bit
Currently, I have 2x2GB of RAM and I want to upgrade it to 2x4GB. After replacing the 2GB sticks with the new 4 GB sticks, the notebook does not start anymore. I bought the right kind with right speed (DDR3 1333MHz 10600 9-9-9-24 SODIMM) and BIOS shows the correct amount of memory but it gets stuck at "starting windows" screen. I've upgraded the BIOS to latest version... if i put the older 4gb (2x2) sticks back in there, it boots just fine. Memory was new and never even used. The memory diagnostics tool doesn't show any errors either, i.e. the test passes without errors.
Any ideas? Thank you for the help.
Regards
Martin

I also experienced a failure attempting to update the bios with the Flash download. My current bios is 2SKG28 and I downloaded the "2SJG33USA.EXE" (Flash from operating system version)
Installing the package in Windows Vista
======================
1. Close all open applications.
2. Click 'Start' -> 'All Programs' -> 'Accesories'.
3. Right click 'Command Prompt', select 'Run as administrator'.
If the User Access Control (UAC) dialog box pops up, select Allow.
4. Type "cd C:\LENOVOTOOLS\FLASH\2SJG33\" and press Enter
5. Type "FLASH.CMD" and press Enter.
6. Two windows will pop up, with the upper window showing the update process.***
***At this point I received the 'incorrect ROM ID' failure, and was able to exit.

Edge 15 won't boot after BIOS upgrade

Hi everyone.
I have a Lenovo Edge 15 and I recently (as in, this morning) tried to upgrade the Bios from the support site for the Haswell i5.
I downloaded the exe, let it run and received the notification that my computer would restart. I just it do it's thing, it goes into the BIOS and appears to be install the bios fine, and then I receive a notice my laptop would restart.
But, once it restarted, it set went into a boot menu. I select the HDD where my OS is installed but the screen goes blank and then (appearantly after restarting) goes back to the boot screen.
I can get into the BIOS fine but I cannot get past the boot menu.
I tried opening my laptop, disconnecting the battery and the CMOS battery (I think it's a CMOS battery), plugged/put them back in and I still have the same issue.
Any ideas as to what the issues is?

Blink code indicated BIOS corruption. Try Roll back of BIOS:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=uk&lc=en&docname=c02693833
You have to try this many times, the timing of holding the keys together is very important 1-3 seconds.
If that doesn't work I'd probably affected your hardware, you may have to contact HP.

Lion freeze on boot after ram upgrade.

I have a mid-2010 13" Macbook Pro. I wanted to upgrade to 8G of ram so I bought this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002YUF8ZG/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
When it arrived in the mail I installed it and booted the laptop. The apple logo comes up, the spinner starts spinning and then after awhile freezes. I figured that I recieved bad RAM so I sent it back to apple and they sent me new memory. I installed the new ram and the same thing happened again. Booting in verbose mode (Apple-V) doesn't give anything useful.
This time I decided to run memory tests. I booted into single user mode (which sees 8G of memory and works fine) and ran memtest overnight. It ran 6 or 7 passes without finding any memory errors.
My next plan is to try to my DVD reinstall/repair the OS to see if that will help but I don't want to do that because I would have to downgrade to Snow Lepoard and then reinstall Lion and that takes long enough to try to avoid.
Any things to try?

When you boot in single user or safe mode, all third party software is prevented from started. So it is possbile one of your third party party applications that are starting at boot is not compatable with the new RAM. I would try turning it all off and then test them all each in turn.

P67A GD65 new beep on boot after bios upgrade [error sound]

Hello,
I've just updated my bios (from 1.7 to 1.E) and I have now an additional beep at the start of the machine.
I was used to have 4 beeps at the same tone, then another one after a pause with a higher tone. But now i have a beep at the beggining with a lower tone, which really sounds like a problem.
I updated the bios this way :
Downloading this zip http://www.msi.com/service/download/bios-17245.html
Unzipping and copying to usb key
Entering UEFI then Setting>M-Flash>Select one file to update bios, selection of the 1.E0 file.
Do i need to do something else ?
I've also tried to use LiveUpdate5, it updates to 1.D0, but same problem.

Yes, I have the same beeps. The middle beeps should be from how many USB devices the BIOS detected connected to your computer. Again this is normal. If you want to know exactly what each beep in the sequence means, contact MSI tech support and they should be able to tell you. I have also not been able to find any documentation as to what the beeps sequence actually stand for except for the middle beeps being USB devices connected. I really would not worry too much about it if your computer is booting correctly and loading into your OS. If that is the case, there is nothing wrong.

PC wont boot after BIOS Upgrade

I have a K7T266 Pro2-RU motherboard, which had BIOS 3.2 on it but I used Live Update to go to 3.6. Since I did this, my conputer boots to showing the ide devices and then the chart of info on screen, but does not go any further. The D-Bracket shows a "Assign Resources to all ISA". This board does not have ISA???? Any help on what I could do would be appreciated.

HP Pavillion p6240f freezes during boot up - Not enough space in Runtime area!!

Hello,
My HP Pavillion p6240f desktop freezes during boot up. After POSTing and listig the USB connections, it displays the following on the bottom of the screen:
Not enough space in Runtime area!! SMBIOS data will not be available. Press F1 to resume.
I went into setup, and this is the BIOS data:
AMI BIOS revision 5.16 BIOS Date: 01/13/2010
Core Version 08.00.15
Can anyone help me? I have found no solutions after heavily searching the internet, and it is important that this computer have unattended reboot after a power outage.
Thanks.

Hi,
Try clearing the CMOS.
If the above doesn't work then remove two of the four dimms (every odd dimm) and then again clear the CMOS. If this should work then power down and reinstalled the two dimms and again clear the CMOS and reboot.
If the above doesn't work then you might have to visit the local PC repair shop.
If you can get unattended boot after power outage to work then there is a bios setting that needs to be changed. Boot into the bios and look under the power drop down. The after AC power failure needs to be set to AUTO (restart). Be sure to save the settings.
