Z87-G43 Gaming no audio output

Hi
I have just built a new pc using the z87-g43 gaming board and can not get the audio to work. Sound works when windows is loading (win7), but once all is running I have no output to the speakers. I have updated to the latest bios and downloaded the latest realtek driver (6.0.1.6959)
I have i7 4771 chip
GTX 760 twin frozer OC
Bios is A.10
Sound Blaster Cinema 1.00.05 (though I have tried with this uninstalled).
Any ideas?
Thanks
Val

OK, so problem resolved. I was connecting to my AOC monitor (integrated speakers) with the HDMI cable plus the usual sound cable. The monitor was expecting the sound to be on the HDMI so was disabling the std sound input. Switched to using the DVI cable and all is working as expected.

Slow power on b4 seeing MSI logo (MSI Z87-G43 GAMING)

My question is, why it takes up to 10 seconds to power on before seeing the MSI logo.
My rig boots in Windows 8.1 Pro UEFI mode with RAID, see summary of rig below.
When booting it sometimes takes up to 10 seconds for the MSI screen to appear, the one with the MSI logo. Once the MSI logo appears the boot is fast, usually between 6 to 8 seconds.
Total boot time around 16 seconds
Please help thanks

Yes, nothing suspicious there, everything loads perfectly. See result below.
From the moment this is displayed, it takes just 6 seconds for Windows to be functional. However, it takes around 10 seconds before this appears on the display.
To be clear, or at least for me to be clear, what you see in the screenshot is the BOOT and not the POST, during the actual POST (power on self-test), the user should not see anything on the display.
Is that correct or have I got it wrong.

Z87-G43 GAMING Dimm problems

Dear sir,
I bought a new motherboard (Z87-G43 GAMING). The problem is that the Dimms one and two does not work except the Dimms three and four. I have four Kingston memory each one has 8 GB.

An unfortunate I have event with developments today. The dealer has contacted me and informed me there was two scratch beside the socket Influenced the work of the Dimms slots one and two. So when I tried to put the heat sink on CPU the screwdriver Slipped on the electronic circuit board of the motherboard without knowing. The error was unintentional. The news was very painful for me. For that reason I Paid for a new motherboard. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Z87-G43 Gaming - Random rebooting & strange CPU temps

Howdy.
Since building this system I've been having constant problems with system reboots. It seems completely random, but I've had a few this morning which is unusual (and I hope; unique!). It can be doing anything, or even nothing, for days and suddenly the power goes completely for a few seconds (I'm almost certain it isn't the power supply itself dropping, other things plugged into the same surge protector are still running).
When it returns windows log just shows Error 6008, with no other information. It happens infrequently enough for me to think I've cured it by doing something suddenly to get a surprise again. Things I've tried:
Re-installing OS (several times!).
Changing/stopping startup programs and services
Unplugging USB devices (for a while I honestly thought it was an iPhone cable! There seemed to be some correlation between it being plugged in and not plugged in. Not so).
Updating BIOS
Using Microsoft drivers instead of MSI supplied drivers (went back to MSI)
Using the Qualcomm Athero drivers for LAN instead of Killer
Monitoring CPU temps (see below!)
Tuning BIOS
etc, etc.
It is really frustrating, there is very little evidence to point towards one thing. It can go a week without rebooting, including lots of heavy gaming, and then I'll be doing something non-CPU intensive (i.e. browsing, or typing) and it suddenly restarts, then maybe another later that day, then another two days later, then nothing for a week again. Arggg! The one thing I have noticed, is that it rarely, if ever, goes down when doing something very CPU/GPU intensive, so I doubt it is thermal or that the PSU isn't coping.
Having said that, this morning has been a bit unusual, it has restarted more than ever (3 times I think, maybe more when I wasn't sat in front of it, I haven't checked the logs). The last time I fired up openhardwaremonitor and it reports something really odd, it says one core is running at nearly 125c and another is running at -35c . Speed fan is also showing these temps (but not Core temp, which shows them as being around 30c on each core). I totally understand that this is a misreading/bug, but it makes me wonder if the OS or motherboard is also misreading these temperatures and cutting the power supply?
I have found others with the same problem with the same motherboard (although to be fair, I was searching for the problem with the motherboard specified). Anybody else seeing these problems with this motherboard? Any suggestions?
Any help would be very much appreciated, and I thank you in advance.

Every other time (apart from today) it is instant, like a reset, this morning when it went off I honestly thought it had died, but it came back about 30 seconds later.
TBH; I'd rather it had died! I know it sounds like strange logic, but at least I could have tested individual components and found out exactly what was wrong and had it replaced while still fairly new.
Event Viewer is just full of: Error 6008 "The previous system shutdown at <time> on ‎<date> was unexpected" (logged when it comes back, nothing significant before the reboot).

MSI Z87-G43 gaming + i5 4690K compatibility

hello there
so, i built a new pc a few days ago and i decided to go with these 2 options (msi z87-g43 gaming + i5 4690K)
anyway, i saw that some people have issues and that it's kind of a roll of a dice whether this specific motherboard will boot with the 4690K or not. From what i saw, it depends on the motherboard's manufacture date and if it has a A5/A6 bios version or not.
now, what i'd like to know is; is there a way to check the bios version of the specific motherboard without opening the box? (i'll have my new hardware probably tomorrow)
i'm really thinking about getting another mobo, i'm not sure what i'll do though.. A friend told me, even though it wont have the A5/A6 bios version, it'll probably boot and i'll be able to update it through windows. He also told me there's a really small chance i'll need another cpu to update the bios and then put my cpu on the mobo.. As i said, roll of a dice.
Any advices/tips?

MSI Z87 G43 GAMING -BIOS CRASH-

Hi everyone ,
I got a z87 g43 gaming mobo I try tried to update my mobo on the live update A40 to A50 then it stuckt
Now no signal on monitor i tried to reset cmos by putting out the battery but didnt work i dont understand what i need to do about jumper
its something like that what can i do???
Oh i almost forget my system is overclocked is it important and system resets itself(what is going on)
Other specs

You have to return it to the seller if you want a replacement (LiveUpdate hasn't voided warranty as that was provided by MSI). Otherwise look around the city for repair center and ask if they can restore badly flashed BIOS on this mobo.

Z87-G43 Gaming reboot dont work

hello all
my new MSI mainboards have a problem of reboot: fans run, leds also, but nothing more... if i've a reboot to make, the only solution is to turn off the system, and re launch after.
i've make all the tests that i've think:
without graphiq card (using mainboard ship)
with only one memory stick (using differents slots)
remove all usb/sound and other case connectors (ssd/dvd/hdd also): boot by contact with "screwdriver"
re install the latest BIOS (V10.4) 2 times
all work fine except reboot....
my config:
MSI Z87-G43 Gaming
Intel core I5 4460 (the new edition of haswell)
GSKILL Ripjaws F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL (2x4go DDR3 1600 PC3 12800 c9-9-9-24 1.5v)
other (i dont think that's problem): gforce GTX770 2gb/ ssd 120gb intel 530/ wd black 1 tb/ DVD burner Asus
thanks if you can help.

could be memory issue look the sticky topic: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=178019.0

Z87-G43 gaming HDMI/DVI ports not working

Board: MSI Z87-G43 gaming edition
Bios: American Megatrends Inc. V10.3, 03/12/2013

PSU: Corsair CS750M
Intel Core i5-4670K
MEM: 8gb
HDD: Plextor 240gb SSD
OS: Windows 7 64bit Professional
Can't figure why they don't work...I checked my CPU and it's supposed to support integrated GPU. HDMI and DVI work on my videocard so I know it's not a monitor issue. I believe my motherboard chipset drivers are up to date. Any ideas?

you could try to set it to IGD in your BIOS to get the Integrated only working (find a option in your BIOS that is set to PEG and change it to IGD and see how it goes)
NOTE: if you find that settings see if it has a both option!

Z87-G43 GAMING with Killer E2205, interrupted internet connection

Motherboard Z87-G43 GAMING with Killer E2205 Gigabit LAN controller
I am using the latest Killer Network Driver (driver only) 8.1.0.23, from MSI website.
The issue:
Occasionally my internet is interrupted and my network card needs to be disabled and re-enabled again to re-establish internet connection.
I am quite certain that it is the network card or driver fault. The logic of this is that other users in my home connected to the same ISP modem has uninterrupted internet connection, while my interruption is happening. Also, as soon as I have disabled and enabled in “Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections”, the internet connection is back up. The process of disabling and enabling takes less than a few seconds.
My internet connection is automatically connected through the modem, I do not dial from my computer.
This problem has occurred ever since I got the motherboard, however it hasn’t really bothered me that much until now.
I recently started playing Counter-Strike Global Offensive, and for those of you who plays CS:GO, also knows that it is not cool to have interrupted internet connection during a competitive match.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
Thanks

try a different network cable, different router port, try reset your router and/or load its default config and/or update it firmware

MSI Z87-G43 Gaming and R9 290 OC Windforce not playing nice

Hi, already tried search but can find a solution, i have an Z87-G43 Gaming(Bios 10.30) and bought an Gigabyte R9 290 OC ref:GV-R929OC-4GD-GA(BIOS F3L). All is on latest Firmware/BIOS.
The problem is that the motherboard wont recognize my 290 on first PCIE 3. It works on second 16x slot. THe thing is... An Gigabyte 7950,Sapphire 7970, Unknown NVIDIA 7200gs all work in the first slot... now that i got bf4 my 290 doesnt work in the first slot... Latest bios from MSI say's vga compat. improved. The computer boots fine with the integrated vga and in bios it shows the first slot as empty. Anyone?

Like I said best to contact both and see what you can do. When I check VBIOS for MSI cards, there are normally newer versions available, so best to check. On the other hand if it is a bios issue, MSI can get on it.
