[X99S Gaming 7] Bios update H80 no ME

Hi everybody, after updating the BIOS on my X99S gaming 7 motheboard and installed the lastest Intel ME driver (under Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit) I am no longer able to run any application like Intel Extreme Utility or MSI Gaming App.
Command Center isn't working too.
It looks like ME driver were missing during the H80 BIOS update.
Any idea?

Reflash it with the following:
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
     A.) Download >>this<< and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
     B.) Download and install the Forum flash tool.
     C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
     D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
     E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
     F.) Boot to the USB 
     G.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash
     H.) After flashing reinstall ME drivers in Windows: http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_me10_mb.zip

  • How to update my MSI X99S Gaming 7 Bios without loose my raid settings

    Hi all,
    I've got a MSI X99S Gaming 7 Motherboard.
    Last time I used MSI Live Update and I performed BIOS update I lost totally my raid settings ( O.S. HardDisk C is build on my raid 1) and I had to reinstall all from 0. Now MSI Live Update notified me a new BIOS version available, is there a way to perform it without lost my C Drive one more time?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    The only settings should do is after BIOS updating, go the BIOS Settings--Advanced--Integrated Peripherals--SATA Mode switch to [RAID Mode], and everything should be fine.
    Yes exactly, that's usually and typically which has to be done.
    But with some note there are an exceptions from this:
    in the past there was some BIOSes due bugs which caused RAID array lost issue after flashing,
    assume raid was re-enabled after the update,
    but RAID array was lost(didn't recognize the settings) and didn't show and unable to rebuild..
    so its always good to have a backup of important data just in case..
    don't trust too much to technology

  • 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.

    However if you need BIOS update prior to have some RAM or GPU working fine (or other stuff), then maybe consider updating to 1.6 and then to 1.9 and finally to 1.B (1.11). I suggest using MFlash (files can be downloaded on MSI's product site, instructions should be included). For Forum Flash tool you need proper files provided (usually) by Svet or Flobelix.
    Before attempting to flash, make sure your system is stable!
    I downloaded BIOS 1,5 and 1,6 and in both cases i have same issue it stucks on 100% on M-Flash, after this I can normaly shut down pc and it work but witch 1.4 BIOS. I just want know whyi can;t
    updtate.

  • Z87M Gaming Mobo - BIOS Update and now won't post

    Hello all...
    Firstly I have had a read through the messages here and it is looking like I may have damaged the board by attempting a BIOS update using the update tool in the BIOS!? 
    Anyhow here is what happened......
    I setup my system below and everything was booting happily with no problems at all.
    I could not seem to get my SSD to be recognised by the mobo (windows install could see the SSD but could not install OS as mobo controller did not recognise it).  I downloaded the 1.2 version of the mobo BIOS, extracted this to USB drive and used the update feature in the BIOS to flash.
    I selected the option for BIOS and Management Engine and the BIOS upgrade reported successfully flashed. The PC re-stared successfully a couple of times but on 1 boot it said it was updating or flashing the Management Engine, a percentage bar completed and that was the last time the PC booted successfully. 
    I have tried clearing the CMOS using the CMOS clear button and the CMOS jumper but this has made no difference.
    The power is there and the PC switches on but it wont post and is showing nothing on the debug LED's.
    I have tried removing all components but same outcome.
    The PSU is brand new and the fact that everything was working fine before the flash update (including the Gskill RAM btw) I feel the flash has caused this.
    However, I would very much appreciate some advice from some experienced MSI mobo users 
    Thanks 

    Quote from: Svet on 26-May-14, 20:53:16
    remove power cord from the PSU and do >>Clear CMOS Guide<< again
    then try to boot with barabone setup
    I did try this with just the board and nothing, no post at all :(

  • MSI X99S Xpower AC Bios Update Failure

    While flashing my bios tonight to the most recent version, my pc power accidently cycled power.  It was updating the "A" bios at the time.  I can still boot via B which I successfully flashed to the most recent just before doing A.  Is there a way to recover A or is it permanent?  B boots  fine, but A just freezes on a black screen.  Any suggestions on what to do will be appreciated.  My pc specs are in my footer.

    My BIOS B has the most recent for this board (1.6 dated 2015-01-17).  Yesterday, when I spoke to MSI tech support, they told me to stick the USB drive with the bios into one of the rear USB ports of the motherboard instead of the direct USB port adjacent to the BIOS selector switch on the board, restart my pc, and when I get to the bios screen to switch over the BIOS switch to A, then run M-FLASH and the A should be updated.  I did this, I can use my keyboard and mouse with this configuration, however, after I switch over to the A BIOS and start M-FLASH, I get the red 5 second restart warning, and my pc turns off and upon restart it freezes and does not even start the BIOS update for A.   Hmmmm...  At least I am part way there.  I will try again tonight.  BTW - I do not get a "please set multi BIOS switch to the target BIOS ROM then press any key to continue" dialogue box.  I will advise later tonight my results.   

  • GTX 970 Gaming 4g BIOS update

    Hey,

    Live update shows NV316MH.126 as current BIOS and

    However, should 186 not be the latest BIOS?

  • GTX 970 gaming 4g BIOS UPDATE QUESTION

    Hello,
    I have read that updating the BIOS of this card can fix some problems, so I was looking forward to do it but I encounter this problem.
    My card has a different S/N than all the ones on the download page.
    This is what's on my box: S/N:602 - V316 - 050B1502006079
    On the download page there is no "050" version...

    Yes, driver MUST be uninstalled or at least disabled (don't reboot!)
    Quote from: flobelix on 12-November-14, 04:59:59
    After downloading the matching archive first uninstall the Nvidia driver (!) then simply decompress the archive and then execute the included batch file (182.bat in case of NV316MH.182's archive) in Windows by double clicking or via command prompt (must be run as administrator)

  • MSI z87I Gaming AC bios update

    I was looking on the downloads section of the MSI site for my MOBO (in the title)
    us_ msi_com/product/mb/Z87I_GAMING_AC.html#download  (I replaced the dots with underscores since it says I can't post links)
    It says the latest BIOS is version 1.3. My version is 1.1B4.
    I unzipped the downloaded file and loaded it onto a USB drive.  When I got into the bios I opened up MFlash and saved my current bios. It was saved as E7887IOB.114
    When I went to select the bios file to update it didn't list the new bios file which was E7887IMS.130
    Is the file listed on the website incorrect? Is there a new bios version out for my mobo?
    Thanks!

    If you check the MSI Nightblade webpage and click bios download page, you could select if you are using Windows 7 or Windows8 then you could find the bios there   
    but note that you could also use AFUDE238 utility to flash the bios under DOS mode..

  • MSI X99S GAMING 7 - slow booting; HDD aren´t recognized in BIOS

    Hi,
    i´m facing a similar Problem as it is described in  "MSI X99A Gaming 7 and Samsung SM951 PCI-e very slow boot time" https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=255919.0
    My rig:
    - i7 5930k
    - X99S Gaming 7 (BIOS h90)
    - PALIT GTX 980 Super Jetstream
    - OCZ revodrive 3 x2 240 GByte (System disk)
    - Corsair Force 3 120 GByte (game disk)
    - 2x SAMSUNG HD501LJ 500 GByte (SATA 3GB/s)
    - 1 LG Electronics BH16NS40
    - 16 GByte Corsair Vengeance LPX schwarz DIMM Kit 16GB, DDR4-2666, CL15-17-17-35 (CMK16GX4M4A2666C15)
    - 1000W power supply
    - ANTEC P193 case
    - G19 Keyboard
    - MX518 Mouse.
    I assembled it yesterday and during the first booting sequence it restarted 3 times.
    After that it took 5 minutes to be on the Windows Desktop. Furthermore I recognized that all the HDDs and the optical drive weren´t available.
    I tried to activate them in the Windows System - with no result. Than I checked the BIOS, they weren´t present there.
    At the end i checked the HDDs only with the power supply, they booted. As soon as I connect them with the SATA cable they stand still - no spin up hear-able.
    Now The BluRay and the HDDs are disconnected, the booting sequence is a Little bit faster (still 3 minutes).
    In the BIOS I only activated the XMP-Profile für the RAM and I changed the booting sequence for the REVODRIVE.
    May someone has any hint for me, how to deal with this Problem - but as I stated at the very beginning: it sounds similar to me.
    Best regards from Austria
    Gerald
    P.S.: I apologize for "hijacking" - I tried to simplify the Forum by merging similar issues.

    Your explanation isn't very helpful.
    Your third try you got the Revodrive, corsair, and optical running? Meaning that you could boot multiple times and have it all work correctly?
    I hate saying it, but if you aren't going to be descriptive, we aren't going to be very much help.
    For what it's worth, I'm starting to think that the Revodrive and the motherboard do not work well together.
    Personally, I would also consider contacting MSI directly about the issue. They might be able to issue a new BIOS that improves compatibility.

    Quote from: Chike on 06-March-15, 10:07:20
    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

  • MSI X99S Gaming 7 Won't Boot

    Hi -
    I just recently purchased an X99S motherboard.  I put it all together, and all was fine for about 24 hours.  I updated the BIOS and then started running a defrag and left the machine on while I went to work.  When I got home, the machine was off. It's not responding to the power button the board or on my case.  If I turn the power off on my PSU and turn it back on and hit the power switch, I get a split second flash of lights and then nothing.  I initially thought that it was my power supply so I bought a new one.  I got that installed and same thing.  One thing to note is that the MSI LED up by the 24 pin connector is on red.  I've already tried the secondary BIOS and I have removed all of the memory except the DIMM in Slot 7. I haven't yet tried to remove the board from the case yet and tried it on a non conductive surface.  I just wanted to get some thoughts on that debug LED that is currently on. I believe the motherboard has just died, but wanted to run it by someone first.
    Here are my specs:
    Board: MSI X99S Gaming 7
    Bios: Version 14.7
    VGA:   MSI GTX980 Gaming
    PSU:   EVGA 1000 Watt G2
    CPU:  Intel Core i7-5930K 3.5GHz
    MEM: Corsair Vengeance 2666 4x4gb CMK16GX4M4A2666C16
    HDD: PNY 256GB SSD
    COOLER: Corsair CWCH60 Water Cooler
    OC: None
    OS: Windows 8.1 64bit

    Take it out of the case, place on non conductive surface (wooden table, motherboard box) and run it then. Also try with single RAM stick in every RAM slot.
    Try clearing CMOS >>Clear CMOS Guide<<
    Also make sure all power connectors are properly fitted in.
    What way did you update the BIOS? Also was it successful?
