MSI Z77 GD55 endless boot cycle with 32GB of RAM

Got a Ivy Bridge GD55 with a 3770K and 32GB of G.Skill 1866mhz Sniper RAM - whenever I use more than two sticks at a time, or outside of the 2 and 4 slots my computer refuses to boot up - it powers on, fans whirl for a couple seconds and then the machine resets. All four sticks will boot properly if they're placed in the 2 and 4 slot, but once I add the other two the system refuses to boot up, doesn't even get to POST before restarting itself.

If you need the memory, try a set of corsair dominators.

MSI Z77 GD55 Slow BootingUp when plugged a Cardreader PROBLEM!!!!!!

I have Msi Z77 Gd55 mainboard. I like this mainboard but I have a little problem. If my card reader is connected via usb and also slots are empty, the first booting black screen is waiting for 10-15seconds. If not plugged it counts the codes in 2seconds and starts loading windows rapidly. It waits at B4 debug code for 10-15 secs and then comes A2 and starts normally my windows.
I have tested other brand Card readers also with internal and external models but the problem is the same. I dont have this problem with my other mobos only having at Z77 GD55.
I have disabled the card reader at the bios Booting/usb but didnt solve the problem exactly.
A bios update may solve this problem................

>>Beta BIOSes<<
Try the latest Beta, make sure to use the forum flash tool so that the ME extension of bios is flashed as well.

Z77 GD55 live update problem

Hello, I recently bought a z77 GD55 mainboard, the problem is when accessing live update or browser from the bios it never works.
First it asks me for a boot drive, I select the hard drive I am using( Windows is on it), and it simply goes to a black screen
I have read the Manuel and all it says to do is install winki which I have done, please help!

Did your mainboard come with the supplemental Software Application User guide? It covers Winki 'how to' fairly well as I recall. Personally, I would recommend to stay away from using any Live Update functions and do all updates and such manually.

Double booting Snow Leopard and Windows 7

My school has licensed a number of copies of Windows 7 and there is some windows-only software I want to use, so I want to double boot with Windows 7. So far with Boot Camp, I've partitioned 5 GB of my harddrive and I'm at the point where I would install a Windows Install disk, but I don't have one because I got Windows 7 as a download. The download site required IE on a Windows operating system, so I downloaded it on a friend's computer and I now have an ISO file in a folder called "Windows 7 Professional (x64)" on a flash drive. I've ruled out the possibility of 10.6 not supporting 64-bit processing because I've read other people doing this. Does my hardware need certain specs? My MacBook is from Feb 2008.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

My internal HDD is only 120 GB large, but I do have a mostly-empty 1 TB external. I've heard differing opinions from my friends; could I run an OS and all of my Windows software off of my external? If not, I have plenty of space on my internal to spare.
I only have 2 GB of RAM on this computer (yes, I know its pathetic). I was thinking about full-out double booting, really. I assume DVD-burning is the only way to do this? And the ISO file is the only one I'll need to put on it? I have blank DVDs at home, but not here in my dorm room. Of course, I'll spend the extra couple bucks if I have to do.
Thanks, guys.

Double booting with OS 10.4 Tiger/Os 9.2

Hello. I'd like to purchase and install OS 10.4 Tiger on my G4 Powermac (Model #: M8689 LL/A with the Mirrored Drive Doors). It came with Mac OS 10.2.1 and OS 9.2 installed. I very much need to maintain access to 9.2, at least for a while, in order to use my preferred older versions of ProTools, which are not supported in 10.4.
I have gotten different answers to the question 'Will i still be able to double boot, into either OS 9.2 or OS 10.4 as need be?' Some folks in the US told me no more double booting with 10.4, but the guys at the local Mac outlet here in Germany say, yes you can still double boot after installing Tiger--that it depends on the computer itself, not the software, and that with my particular powermac G4, it'll still double boot.
Can anyone confirm this one way or the other, and tell me anything i need to know when installing 10.4?
Many thanks from a first-time poster.

Hallo Stork,
die Classic Umgebung ist eine Emulation eines Betriebssystems (OS 9) in einem anderen Betriebssystem (MacOS X). Deshalb muss X auch mehrere Dateien im OS 9 Systemordner verändern und hinzufügen. Dies kann erhebliche Probleme bereiten wenn du den selben OS 9 Systemordner als natives Betriebssystem verwendest, also ohne Emulation (=Classic). Deshalb mein Vorschlag 2 separate Partitionen zu benützen.
Sowohl für die Classic Funktion als auch für ein natives OS 9 brauchst du in jedem Fall ein komplettes OS 9 - das du ja derzeit schon besitzt.
Um deine Festplatte zu partitionieren musst du sie neu formatieren. Dabei werden alle(!) Daten gelöscht! Deshalb musst du unbedingt ein komplettes Backup deiner Programme und Daten vorher erstellen.
Ich schlage folgende Vorgehensweise vor:
1. Starte von der OS 9 Ínstallations-CD (c-Taste während des Startens)
2. Formatiere und Partitioniere Deine Festplatte (Format: Apple Extended (HFS+))
3. Installiere auf beiden Partitionen OS 9 und stelle sicher, dass du von beiden Partitionen starten kannst.
4. Update beide OS 9 Systemordner auf 9.2.2: Mac OS 9: Available Updates
5. Starte von der MacOS X installations CD/DVD.
6. Installiere MacOS X nur auf einer Partition.
7. Update MacOS X mit dem Standalone Combo Update auf die aktuellste Version (Mac OS X Update 10.4.7 Combo PPC). Vergiss nicht: Repair permissions before and after an update!
8. Nach dem Neustart öffne die Systemeinstellungen, klickt auf Classic und wähle jenen OS 9 Systemordner als Classic Umgebung, der auf der gleichen Partition wie OS X liegt.
Fertig! Ab sofort kannst du zwischen OS 9 und MacOS X während des Neustartes auswählen, wenn du beim Starten die alt-Taste gedrückt hältst.

Why iMac (late 2012) does a double boot up every time?

Hi,
I have a 27inch late 2012 imac.I have a 3TB fusion drive running 10.8.2.
Every time I restart or start up from off, the machine does a double boot up.
     The iMac boots up and the dong sound plays, apple logo showing.
     Then 23 seconds into boot, screen goes black and switches on again,
     Dong sounds plays again while the apple logo reappears.
The imac logs into desktop only after the dong sound and the apple logo appear twice.
any idea why would that happen?
Also, from time to time I get a small window popping up, but it dissappears a second later and I have no time to see whats wrong. I can only sort of make out that there is a yellow triangle on it. Probably some sort of error resolving itself?
Thanks!

Thanks for your answer! I just got off the phone with apple and finished reinstalling Mountain Lion on my imac and that fixed the error. Apparently it was something to do with how OS X was installed and reinstalling the OS fixed that restart on the startup issue! i hope that I wont be getting those random pop up error messsages as result, but still too early to tell!

Z77 GD55 - Will run Virtu MVP?

Hello, guys,
I'm looking to buy the MSI Z77 GD55 but the oficial lacking of support to the Virtu MVP technology is holiding me back, but, i saw in some foruns some guys with this motherboard running the Virtu MVP, so, it's really possible to run the Virtu MVP on this motherboard? I'm justing waiting for this confirmation to buy the Z77 GD55, if not, i'm thinking to get the BIOSTAR TZ77XE4

No mention of it on the website. Consider the -GD65.

Optical disk slowing down boot time with z77 gd55

I recently hooked up an optical drive to a gd55 motherboard, after the windows 7 logo is formed now there is a 15 or so second long pause that wasn't there before. If i insert a disk into the drive the pause is gone as well. If anyone knows of a setting to stop this please help,

I found another similar to what Wonkanoby found. Perhaps your problem is you may need the firmware update.

MSI 990XA-GD55 Mobo: Boots fine, no POST/chance to enter setup

So I have built my own setup here, been running it since May of this last year. I never thought about it until recently, but my computer has never done a POST, or shown me the screen that allows me to get to BIOS or Boot screens. The computer has been running fine, until recently (About a month ago or so) I will be playing any kind of game, and the computer just COMPLETELY crashes. No closing of the game and shutting itself down, no blue screens, just one second the comp is running, and the next it is shut down. So I did a stress test of CPU and GPU to see if they were just overheating or were on their way out the door... But both passed stress tests just fine. I then wanted to check my memory/BIOS, and this is where the no POST and setup screen "clicked" for me... I have been searching everywhere for info on this topic, and the best I can come up with is that there is a problem with my G Skill memory not being recognized? I have DDR3 1600 going, as it shows I can use up to at least 1866 without OC on this mobo. So I went to check what my BIOS said, went to owners manual to see how to get to it (As I never saw the screen where it asks you to press "Delete" or F11), yet in the manual, it says to look for exactly that. So I guess my MAIN question is... How do I get my computer to show me that screen on startup? I have read to reset the jumper to the 2-3 position for 15 seconds on the JBAT, and if that does not work, to pop out the CMOS battery... But wanted to get other opinions before I attempted such things. And in doing this, and possibly getting to the BIOS screen, will that even help me with my original problem of my computer all of a sudden crashing in prolonged "stress" situations? Ie, playing Lord of The Rings Online, I generally have to play for a few hours before it crashes as such. I tried to play Assassins Creed 3 today, and it crashed in the first 10 minutes. This led to my investigation into the GPU (As it only really occurs when playing video games). I was thinking the system was just overheating and auto turning itself off to protect, but after doing the stress tests, GPU stayed pretty stable at 80-85c over an hour, and CPU stayed below 76c on an hour stress test. I even did an hour PSU test, no crash... The only thing I can think would be memory.
I apologize for the multitude of questions and possibly incoherent order in which I wrote, but just trying to get as much pertinent info/process I went through as possible. Thanks in advance for any replies, and will be happy to give any extra info if needed!

EDIT: After looking through all the left over cases from items I purchased when building this comp, I realize I actually purchased 1866 DDR3, not 1600. But in looking at system properties here, it registers as 1600... But as I said before, I cannot access BIOS to adjust these values. Or maybe that is my problem in first place?

I was wondering about a good voltage for this setup, I think these two are running at 1.6V to start with... So going lower voltage would be ideal then, hmm? Less heat, less power consumption, and you do not have to worry about a decrease in performance? Especially if the latencies are lower, correct?
And I hate to say this, but I have had one of my first "noob" moments ever with this problem... It has been a few months since I took some compressed air to the mobo.. So went and bought some, blasted the heck outta the CPU/GPU/PSU, and the North/South bridges... Ran the same CPU stress test for twice as long, and it hovered at 41c, 42c was my max... *facepalm*. Before, it was even overclocking the CPU to 3.8GHz or so to work with the "data" it was running.. After compressed air, never really went above the 3.6 stock speed. I have never felt like such a goober!
As for the BIOS, turns out the F lock solved the problem, as the delete key is somehow considered a function key for this keyboard I guess. Was able to get into the BIOS, do some tweaking and all. Still nice to know that these newer systems dont beep anymore, and where to start pressing the delete key, instead of mashing it from boot!
Yet again, thanks for the tips, and this bit on memory/RAM is interesting, thank you for that input as well! I do not plan on upgrading the CPU any time soon, unless it is in a weakened state thanks to my neglect.. But I am still fuzzy on RAM details, so the mention of Latency/Voltage helped me in my upgrade search, thank you! If I am understanding it correctly, the 1866 will be future proofed, as well as having the ability for lower latencies compared to 1600? Does my system not go to 1866 because of the CPU or the mobo? As I thought the mobo supported up to 2133 OC.. So most likely the CPU, correct? I am looking at some Mushkin memory, if I get some 1866, I can lower its frequency to 1600, but decrease its latency in the process? ie getting some CL9, and lowering it to 1600 and CL8? How would I go about this, if you do not mind my asking? (If I understand correctly).
Thanks again!
EDIT: I brought up the msi control center, and see that my RAM is actually running at ~1.5V. How can I see the latencies it is running at? It is rated at CL9 at 1866..

Z77A-GD55 not booting(boot loop)

hey ...
I got hold of a z77a-GD55 mobo where the previous owner did not know if this motherboard was working or not.
I have installed an i5 2300 CPU and 4gb ram on two sticks.
when I press the start button its turns on and runs for about 5 seconds and simply turns off and on again in a loop.No picture on screen.
All the phase leds turns on.
I have tried all ram slots with one stick of RAM, reset the bios, taken out the cpu and reseated it with new thermalpaste and with / without gpu.
I have only run this motherboard on a cardboard box.
Can anyone help me here?

This sounds like the BIOS was corrupted due to a bad flash. The boot block is probably bad too. I've had this happen when trying to use the M-Flash function.
Download all of the different versions of the BIOS for your motherboard from the MSI main site. Place all of the BIOS ROM files in a FAT32 formatted USB stick in the root directory. Insert USB stick, hold down home key, and power on while holding down the home key. Watch USB activity on the flash drive. If the light on the USB flash drive blinks a lot, then it is loading your BIOS.
If that doesn't fix it, go to a computer shop and have them program your BIOS using an in-circuit SPI programmer. You can buy a cheap one from China/Hong Kong if you feel like doing it yourself.
Good luck.

Z77-GD55 not posting after Win8 Update

Hi folks,
i´m in need of help as i am done with my knowledge here. After i updated my PC to Win8 it sometimes didn´t boot up. After 4x-8x restarting unplugging etc it went back to working normal. Today it got stuck in a boot loop. Before the update i swapped the memory sticks into different banks, as otherwise the heatsink wouldn´t fit, so now they are sitting in bank 2 and 4. Besides that the Soundcard went from the uper PCIe slot in one of the lower ones. I already tried swapping memory modules, disconnetcing all devices, unplugging GPU, HDD, and the Sound Card. Result so far is either a boot loop, meaning the PC seemingly powers up, all vents running and then restarts or inbetween i got a 3x times beep. Now i´m cluelesse.
Any ideas ?
Thanks a lot !!

Strange analysis and assumption indeed.
You had a working board. You load the OS and now it doesn't work. The only known change was the OS.
With Win8 not being able to write and embed its serial key to the BIOS, I wouldn't be surprised if that caused BIOS corruption.
I think he indicated that he broke it trying to fix this issue. It just wouldn't load the OS then he re-seated everything and it boot looped.

10.4.6 installed - no problems and no double boot either

I've gotten into the habit of running all major updates from a fresh OS backup on an external FW drive using the combo updates. This allows me to install the update to either drive, in this case the Boot Drive. In the case of this update, I didn't have ANY of the problems or concerns mentioned elsewhere, no dual boot, no extra wait time on boot, no failures, nada.
So, if you haven't purchased an external drive for backup and such here is another great reason to.

It's been reported that you will not get the dual boot when using the 10.4.6 Combo. I just ran the update using Software Update and got the dual boot, no problem however, worked great.

P55-CD53 double boot up (randomly)

I'm noticing that on cold boot, it will start for a second, shut down for another 2 seconds (power off), and then start again and BOOT fully. No problems to speak of once up and running.
Plenty of power 600w, and only one modest vid card, so power draw should not be the reason for this.
Running an older version of the bios 1.3, NOT overclocking at all, 4 gig memory runs at 1600mHz
Anyone know what this might be about? I read something about boards resetting the cpu clock and needing to do this.

I just disabled it just before I made that post. I've only had this system running for 4 or 5 days and had not done that yet and this thread reminded me to disable the EuP2013. I have mine going 24/7 f@h so it's not something I would notice every day.
