Z87 G45-Gaming Mic problem

Hello,
I am the same problem ( https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=171379.0 )
My mic is not working correctly on my new computer.
I updated all my drivers, i flashed my bios with the last bios and i still have a problem with my mic (he works great with other computer).
The S/N is : 601 - 7821 - 010b1306107023
Can you help me please ?

I'm having the exact same problem. Where do I find the serial number?
It can be found on the backside of the board or on the box starting with 601-7821-xxxxx

  • Z87-G45 Gaming - RAM Problems

    Basics out of the way
    PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA NEX750G 80PLUS
    CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K
    RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1866 MHZ (PC3 15000) Desktop Memory (CMZ16GX3M2A1866C10)
    VGA: EVGA GeForce GTX780
    First problem - only one stick of memory lets me boot. Dual channel no go. I've tried swapping modules, they're each fine, but when I put both in - nope. No beeps, no nothing, powers on fans spin, nothing goes anywhere. Tried older RAM from my old machine. Same thing. Single sticks work, dual - no go.  Using the recommended slots, even tried the others, no go.  Unless there is some setting I'm missing in the BIOS, the only thing I can think of is to flash to a beta version and try. I've also reset the CMOS with the power unplugged. Twice. Latest version on MSI's site for the BIOS which is 1.5.
    EDIT: OK, all monitors working now with multi-monitor enabled and Nvidia drivers installed. Now the RAM.
    Thoughts? Suggestions? Do I need to try a beta version of the bios?
    Really looking for help. If I can't get this resolved today I'm just going to RMA it and go with a different board.

    DIMM1, DIMM2 work great solo. 3 and 4 no boot, no beeps, nothing. Reseated the CPU while I was messing around down there.
    So I don't know at this point. Bad board? Reading the stickied, would an outdated or improperly updated Intel Mangement Engine cause something like this? (since I didn't even know what the ME part meant in the bios till I read it on here).
    So I'm out of ideas right now. Unless you think a new bios would work https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=169943.0, the later ones than the "current" version on MSI's site has a lot of memory fixes/changes so maybe that? Other than that I can only think to RMA it.

  • Z87 g45 gaming audio problems

    Hello.
    Fresh win 7 installation. When i install realtek audio driver and click on the speaker near the watch, windows audio disables. If i uninstall them, windows finds and install the audio driver and all works. I tried several realtek drivers. Th cd ones, the drivers on msi site and the ones on realtek site. All gave me same error.
    Then i tried to uninstall the video card since i use the hdmi for sound output and tried other sound output. Same error.

  • MOVED: Z87-G45 GAMING LAN Problem in REDHAT6

    This topic has been moved to Linux/Unix.
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=180095.0

    Ok. So:
    all seems to work fine now, but I had to uninstall completely Killer LAN Driver/manager as it was giving me some limit with Wi-Fi connection.
    For some reason Command Center doesn't want to start up (keeps on Loading Screen) but will try new version if one is available.
    Thank you all.

  • Sound Problem With new motherboard Z87-G45 Gaming

    2 days ago i bought a new motherboard msi Z87-G45 Gaming ,
    when i started playing my favorite game (cs go) i noticed that the sound at the left and right are louder(way louder it even hurts me ears )
    and the sound at the front and the back are just normal, i also noticed that quality of the sound is worse , so im wondering if the onboard soundcard is broken or has it to do with something else?
    and yes the Realtek Hd Audio driver is installed
    im using the onboard soundcard Realtek ALC1150
    and the headset Siberia V2 Steelseries
    I am new to the forum if i posted this in the wrong section or something i apologize
    i also like to apologize for my bad english.

    >>Posting Guide<<
    Apart from Realtek you could install Sound Blaster Cinema.
    Try to reinstall the drivers >>Realtek Downloads<< with the latest available.
    Try different headset/speakers.

  • Z87-G45 Gaming not able to install Win7 x64 with Samsung 840 EVO

    I have a brand new:
    i5 4570
    MSI Z87-G45 Gaming
    250GB Samsung 840 EVO
    1x 8GB Corsair ValueRam DDR3 1600
    I got everything hooked up properly, but I am not able to install Win7 x64 through an USB pen drive (Kingston Datatravel 32GB USB3) I have a proper  official and Legit MSDN ISO, formatted by the Win7 USB tool from MS itself.
    Note that i do not have an optical device (DVD) installed so I cannot use it 'the old way'.
    Bios settings are okay, everything is recognized
    USB Legacy - Kingston Datatraveler
    HDD Legacy - Samsung 840 EVO
    Win7 setup loads properly; but before I can select the Harddrive / SSD to install Win7 on I get prompted that additional (3rd party) drivers are needed to proceed. The volume is not recognized. This happens 9 out of 10 times. In the 10% cases I do get the option to format the SSD and/or create partitions. However, installation fails after all, cannot load or find file ...
    What I've tried so far:
    Switch out the SATA cables and power cables
    Switch through the various SATA ports on the MB 1 through 6
    Tried UEFI and UEFI/Legacy (UEFI doesn't seem to work at all)
    Update UEFI to V 1.50
    All the above result in the case mentioned.
    I have succesfully installed the SSD in an other PC, using the same pen drive and ISO and it worked like a charme, thus ruling out that the SSD, pen drive or image is corrupt.
    Even when I switched out the SSD after Win7 setup has succesfully copied, unpacked and installed all the files (doing this on the other machine where it works like a charm). Then switching it to the MSI Z87...it fails; starting the setup procedure right from the start, like nothing was ever written on the SSD...
    Finally i turned to Win8, and guess what, it installed without any glitches on the MSI Z87
    What am I missing here, I would really want to install Win7 instead of Win8
    Forgot to enable / disable something in the UEFI? I really don't know, google doesn't give much information on this specific problem (SSD is recognized properly by the BIOS / UEFI as far as I can tell)
    The only thing I have not tried out so far is updating the Samsung SSD firmware to the 1.0 version which has been release 3 days ago...
    Any clues, tips, hunches??

    Quote from: Bernhard on 25-October-13, 18:33:41
    Did you disable Secure Boot in the BIOS? If not, then Win7 won't load.
    Hmmm not sure, thanks for the reply, will have to look into that later today!
    I didn't change it from the default setting I think, unless it is part of the Win8 features in the UEFI. All where disabled by default, and I kept them disabled.
    Where is Secure Boot listed in the UEFI, and any idea wether it is enabled by default?
    ::EDIT::
    Found it in some screenshots, I cannot recall from the top of my head wether it was enabled or disabled, allthough my gutt feeling says it already is disabled.

  • MSI Z87 G45 GAMING erratic BSOD/freeze @ 2300, stable @1600. Can't solve.

    Hi All,
    I would welcome some advice. I am about 4 months into a new machine build:
    * MSI Z87 G45 GAMING motherboard
    * i7-4770K Haswell 3.5 GHz & aftermarket heatpipe cooler
    * 4 x 4Gb G.Skill SNIPER DDR3-2133 PC3-1700  (F3-17000CL11D-8GBSR)
    * GeForce GTX 650 Ti  w/ 2 Gb Video RAM
    * Samsung 840 Pro 256 Gb SSD
    * Thermaltake 700W Toughpower
    * Win 7 Pro 64-bit SP1
    The system seems to run fine at the default 1600 MHz RAM speed, however if I implement either of the X.M.P. profiles (which kick the memory speed up to the RAM's advertised  speed of 2133 MHz), the system will occasionally (every 8 to 48 hours) freeze or BSOD.  The BSOD stop codes are inconsistent in number (0x00, 0x41, 0x1E, 0xC4) and driver.  When the system freezes, there is no consistent behavior.  I am not doing any other overclocking besides using the X.M.P. profile in the memory. 
    RAM timing on the 2133 X.M.P. profile is: 11-11-11-30.
    I have updated the BIOS to 1.5, including the ME, and updated all drivers in the system.  All irrelevant hardware and drivers are disabled.  Also I have done the following:
    * MemTest+  5.01 for over 30 hours, all 4 sticks in.  No errors.
    * Intel BurnTest on 'Very High', 10 passes, no errors
    * Prime95 for over day with 90 C CPU temps constantly being hit.  No errors.
    * Unigine Valley Benchmark for 30 minutes; no issues
    I increased V_DRAM from 1.60V (from the XMP profile) to 1.65V, and I also added  +0.10V offset to increase the CPU I/O ANALOG , CPU I/O DIGITAL  and SYSTEM AGENT voltages.  Didn't seem to help.  All other CPU voltages are default from [auto].
    I rolled the memory speed back to the default 1600 MHz, and the system seems stable as a rock.
    I don't really need to have the memory run at 2133 MHz, but it irks me that the system is not stable with the rated components, and I'm befuddled why the stress tests seem to pass just fine, then the system will randomly hang with arguably a far less demanding load than the stress tests.
    Note that I have not yet:
    * reset the CMOS when changing to X.M.P.  Perhaps I should?
    * reseated the graphics card or CPU.  The latter will require R/R of the thermal grease, which I will do if needed, but it's a pain.  Since the system is stable at 1600 MHz, I assumed that all basic systems are working as they should.
    * Tried to work my way up in memory speed step by stem from 1600 to 2133 to see where things fall apart.
    * Tested the video memory
    I suspect main system memory, despite the clean bill of health from MemTest, and based on many of the comments to others with similar problems from the veterans on this board.   I don't want to push the CPU voltages too much above the default/auto values, for fear of damage and reduced lifetime.
    Also, the power supply is a nice unit from an older high-end gaming rig. It is rated at 700W.  The PS does probably have over 30,000 hours on it (24/7 use for 3-4 years), however.  Strange that it would work at 1600 MHz fine, and with only slightly more power load at 2133.  I suppose stranger things have happened. 
    I've read the suggestions to run only 2 sticks, rather than 4, but I can't justify dropping $140 on new memory (I don't really need the extra speed benefit, it's more curiosity and just not knowing at this point).
    Anyway, perhaps more seasoned souls than I can share their thoughts.  The system is perfectly usable at 1600, but I'd really like to know where the lockups are stemming from.  Troubleshooting is maddening because of the inconsistency in the long times before failure and lack of repeatability to reproduce the issue.
    Thanks in advance for your time.

    Thank you both for the prompt replies.  I'm learning a lot.
    Turns out I also found this from G.SKILL in going over reviews of the memory modules I have.  Another user had a similar configuration as mine and was having similar problems.  G.SKILL replied:
    Quote
    We are sorry to hear you were unable to get two kits working in the same system. It is not guaranteed two kits can operate at the rated specifications since they were not pre-matched, tested, and guaranteed at factory. With multi-channel motherboards, perfectly matching memory is necessary to achieve high frequency. This is why we must offer high capacity 32GB, 64GB kits, otherwise we can just sell one module at a time and have you purchase as many as you need. Unfortunately, memory does not work that way. If you purchase a 16GB kit rated at DDR3-2133, you should have absolutely no issues. For any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us directly for assistance.
    Thank you
    GSKILL SUPPORT
    Not knowing any better, I simply purchased two "kits" of 2x4 GB each and installed them.  Perhaps worse, if the modules were matched, I may well have mixed them up so the matched modules don't even sit in the same channels 1/3 or 2/4.  G.SKILL seems to have a pretty responsive board, so I'll ask them what they suggest.
    Also in the end, I really just want a stable machine. This is a basically an office/engineering machine.  My initial thinking was that if the system was unstable at 2133 then there is something wrong with it that needs to be fixed.  It sounds instead like getting to 2133 is not guaranteed, and is much more of an art than simply throwing the modules in and powering up the system.
    I'm perfectly happy at 1600 knowing the system is stable.  Indeed realizing now that 2133 requires overclocking, I may well have backed off to 1600 even if everything had worked just fine at 2300, just to trade extra stability for the (small) performance improvement that I would likely never notice anyway.
    I'll put together a post for the G.SKILL forums, and if I get anything useful I'll post what I learn here for completeness. 
    Thanks again for the fast and informative replies.  It's much appreciated.
    Best,
    -Paul

  • Msi z87-g45 gaming, no display, no beep.

    I am building a gaming computer. When i turn on my computer the cpu fan spins quickly then immediately slows down to a slow spinning state. My Boost audio light is on as well. But i get no display. I have tried the DVI HDMI and VGA outputs. I also accidentally pressed the cmos button while the compute was on. I also removed my mobo battery for 5 mins. Oh and on top of all that i dont have my standoffs. So maybe the board is short circuiting. But if that was the case my is my cpu fan remaining on as well as my boost audio light?
    Here are my specs:
    Ultra 550w ATX Power Supply
    2 DDR3 in slots 2 and 4
    Cpu with no bent pins (that i can tell)
    Thanks for your help.

    Im having exactly the same problem did you manage to get it working in the end?
    The board has been tested by aria computing and came back fine they have also replaced the RAM and CPU incase they were the problem. Il list all the things Iv tried so far. Thing that gets me is there is no beep when I turn it on so something is wrong and im banging my head against the wall not being able to figure it out.
    Checked both power connections many many times
    Check for shorts
    Changed power supply
    Changed RAM (and tested in all configerations)
    Tested 3 monitors on all ports (onboard DVI, VGA and HDMI)
    Put 3 GPU's in it as well and tested all ports on them
    Tested on a low end CPU
    Tried out of case with just power leads and a monitor connected (no HD,USB,frount audio)
    Reset COSMOS and checked the battery
    Here are the specs

  • MSI Z87-G45 Gaming running the second gpu @ x2 speed

    Hi i have a problem with my second gpu running x2 while my main gpu stay's @ x16 but it's suppose to be 8 and 8 ?
    Here are my specs:
    MSI Z87-G45 Gaming
    I7 4770K - H80
    G.Skill 16GB 1600Mhz
    XFX Radeon HD6990 + Sapphire Radeon HD6970
    I'ts the Sapphire running at x2
    Kind regards MojoW

    I don't really know if your non-identical cards working fine when  combined crossfire.I think two identical card  either for crossfire or sli are the best solution to avoid troubles. Apart from that ,you have enabled your crossfire setting from your driver ,right?(and your driver is up to date,I suppose)
    Edit:
    P.S though Having a dual gpu card combined with a single gpu one with crossfire...I think that's impossible.

  • MSI Z87-G45 Gaming and Sapphire 290X, cant get it to work!

    Hi, MSI Z87-G45 Gaming and Sapphire 290X, gpu fan is spinning, but black screen, only int. graphic  is working. Downloaded all updates, bios 1.7 for mobo.... what else.....Any ideas?

    Its not verified.
    I got Sapphire to work, seems that drivers problem or something is maybe broken(mobo or gpu).
    Thanks for link!
    Just in the middle of the action, I got this picture.
     What can cause that?

  • Help! Can't overclock new Z87-G45 Gaming without Event 41 Task 63 shutdowns

    I'm running into a frustrating problem with Event 41 Task 63 "unexpected shutdowns" when I'm trying to overclock the computer I recently built. The machine shuts down instantly and seemingly randomly under light load, often when it's idle. It doesn't BSOD, there's no crash dump, and the bug check codes are all zeros in event viewer. It doesn't shutdown while stress testing or playing games. It's certainly not overheating.
     If I run the processor at default clock this doesn't happen, or at least, it hasn't so far. But when I dial in a modest 4.2ghz overclock, it'll reliably happen once or twice daily. The thing is, my overclock will stress test for 24 hours stable with every program I've tried (Intel Extreme Tuning Utility, AIDA64, Prime95) and passes Intel Burn Test 10 passes at very high. It only seems to generate the Event 41 errors while idle or web browsing.
     Steps I've taken so far that have not solved the problem:
     - replaced PSU
     - replaced memory
     - checked cable connections to motherboard
     - flashed bios to latest
     - updated all drivers to latest
     - disabled C-states
     - disabled adaptive voltage and dynamic multiplier
     - disabled sleep in Windows power plan
     - disabled all but one audio driver
     - verified hard drive passes dskchk
     - verified memory passes memtest 12 hours
     - verified sfc/scannow gives no errors
     I'm close to abandoning overclocking but that's disappointing.
     Here are my system specs:
     OS: Windows 8
     Motherboard: MSI Z87-G45 gaming
     Processor: Intel i5 4670k
     Cooler: Hyper 212+
     Memory: Gskill 2x4GB 1600mhz 8-8-8-24 (Haswell compatible)
     Video card: MSI 770 GTX Twin Frozer
     PSU: Seasonic G-series 650W (Haswell compatible)
     Firewire Card: SIIG 2-port PCIe
     Drive: Seagate Barracuda 1TB
     Optical: ASUS DRW-24B1ST
     Here's the overclock I've been attempting:
     Core multiplier: 42
     Vcore: 1.16v
     Ring multiplier: 41
     Vrin: 1.15v
     Vccin: 1.85v
     XMP enabled (1600mhz, 1.5v)
     (all other settings default in MSI bios)
    Can anyone suggest to me what might be going on here?
    I've tried raising vcore to 1.19 and running fixed voltage with no difference.
    Are there other settings I should try changing? One thing, for example, is that I've left vdroop control on auto. I have different % options in the MSI bios, should I start experimenting? I read that Haswell has little vdroop so I didn't mess with it.
    Is it right to assume this isn't a motherboard problem, since I don't seem to get the unexpected shutdowns when I'm running stock clocks? I think I've ruled out the PSU and ram since I've replaced them both, so if it's a hardware issue I think it's got to be the motherboard.
    Thanks for any help.

    I know this topic is old but i have been having this same problem as andy and i cant figure it out. Also im sorry if i wasnt suppose to continue on someones thread but i thought it would be easier since we had the same problem. I have the same mobo and cpu, this only happens when i try to OC. when i set it back to stock bios it doesnt happen. Event id 41 with a random reboot and no BSOD. i dont know what to do anymore besides revert back to stock. IF anyone can help me let me know.
    i have oc to 4.4 multiplier with 34x uncore ratio.
    things i have tried. set everything to auto except those two settings above.
    changed oc multiplier to fixed/dynamic.
    turned off xmp lowered ram to 1333mhz ddr3
    tested vcore from 1.15 to 1.265 in bios.
    vccin at 1.9 to 1.95
    vring to 1.15
    auto offset settings (vcore/vrin) - also tried .001 offset as well
    turned off and on c-states
    C1E off
    ram timing and volts to auto or manual timings of 9-10-9-28-2 1.5V which were found on the box of ram
    ive ran memtest+86 for 4 runs with no problems
    sfc/scannow -checked out ok
    ran antivirus/malware
    ccleaner
    lowered cpu multiplier to x40
    i passed AIDA64 and prime95 with 6 hours each with vcore at 1.2 but its reboots randomly when on light load like internet browsing.

  • Z87-G45 Gaming - Boot error code A2 (stalled)

    Hey folks,
    I just purchased this board with an i5-4670k
    I have a weird issue with the boot process.  It doesn't occur at bios default values, only when I change them.
    Here is the steps I do prior to get this stalled on BIOS load screen
    1- I change the OC settings to get to either 4.2 or 4.4GHZ (1.29v for CPU 4.4ghz and 2v for input)
    2- hit F10, save and restart
    3- Boot normaly into windows.
    4- Launch AIDA64 to stress test the system for 8h.  Yes I did the 8 hours at first.  It successfully passed the stress test.
    5- I browsed a little bit.
    6- I played battlefiled
    No issue so far.
    7- I shutdown the computer.
    8- I then restarted it, and BOOOOMM.  It stalls on the black screen, prior to the Dragon screen, with a A2 code in the lower right corner.
    So I know the the OC is fine, since the stress test is OK for that long.  I tried it several time, but only stressed it for 30min, then reboot and BOOMMM again.  :/
    So can someone, from MSI, help me?
    Thx

    Hey!
    I decided to chip in since I have almost the same issue.
    My PC boots to Windows and runs just fine apart from the 2second A2 debug code delay. Been playing games like BF4 for a good amount of time etc.
    I just seem to be getting that same A2 debug code whenever I boot, seems to be the WD Caviar Red drive I just bought a week ago, already tried a few different sata and power cables, which dont help the case. When I unplug it the boot happens normally without any debug codes. Thing is the HDD seems to be working just fine, tested it with HD Tune Pro and CrystalDiskInfo. Also im not certain, but pretty sure that the A2 debug code only started happening after I installed a GTX 770 (day after the WD 1TB Caviar Red drive). Then again that doesnt make much sense? Since then it would most likely be an issue with the PSU, but seeing how I can play BF4 on high settings for 2hours straight it most definately isnt I think. My problem doesnt have anything to do with overclocking though, since I run everything on default.
    Any ideas? And again, sorry for chipping in your thread. Just saw the same debug code problem and thought I shouldnt do a new one.

    If you are in the UK, the reseller needs to handle the RMA. I would recommend calling the re-seller back and raising cain with them until they take it back.
    As for repairing the pins, it is usually fairly simple. A bright light and eyeglass screwdriver usually does the trick.
    Thanks again xmad,
    But I think I would rather replace the motherboard since it may have problems later. You never know why the cpu slot was damaged in the first place, maybe other components are also affected..

  • How to increase maximum buffer memory on MSI Z87-G45 Gaming,s1150?

    good day,
    is there a way to increase the maximum buffer memory for PCI-E X16 ports? e.g. a bios setting that allows this?
    here are my specs:
    -   2 x XFX HD7950 Double Dissipation (FX-795A-TDFC)
    -   MSI Z87-G45 Gaming,s1150   
    -   Intel Core i3-4130,s1150
    -   1 x TNAV6R00 Corsair RM1000 (Gold standard)
    -   ICIDU Value DDR3 1333 (2x4GB)
    -   Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit

    perhaps I can be a bit more specific regarding my problem
    I am using above described rig for mining purposes. One of the related performance variables is 'thread concurrency' (CGMINER). it is currently set to value 8192, corresponding to about 512mb of buffer memory for the PCI-E ports. I can not increase it, as i get the error that the system is out of buffer memory. Thing is, the system should have a lot more. The PCI-E cards hav 3GB each and my system ram is 2x4GB.
    one relate variable I am already using is the following command line
    setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
    this usually solves above problem, but not in this case...
    anybody got any ideas?

  • Can't reboot (Z87-G45 Gaming)

    I have a rather strange problem and am hoping someone from MSI might have a few suggestions.
    I recently upgraded my rig with a new mobo and cpu.  I went with a gigabyte Z87-d3h and immediately noticed that my pc would not reboot, it just sits there with a black screen although I do hear the hard drive doing something.  My old AMD computer had worked fine with the components I kept, namely the ram, PSU and graphics card.  So I came to the conclusion that the motherboard was faulty and sent it back.
    I decided to try a different brand and went for the MSI-Z87-g45-gaming.  Sadly I have exactly the same problem which was rather baffling.
    Some more details about the behaviour:
    - If I unplug the graphics card, and just use onboard vga, it DOES reboot fine.
    - When using the graphics card, it does actually reboot normally some of the time, I would say about 20%.
    - the behaviour is the same whether I am in windows or rebooting from the BIOS
    - I was using bios 1.4 and I saw that 1.5 had an updated graphics output driver. Excitedly I updated to 1.5 and indeed it rebooted fine a couple times, but then reverted to old behaviour
    Are there any BIOS settings I could try to see if i can fix this?
    details of my pc:
    600w OCZ PSU
    MSI-Z87-G45 gaming
    i5-4670k cpu
    gigabyte HD7970 ghz edition
    12GB corsair vengeance ram
    1x Hdd
    1x SSD

    Upon the non win8.1 updates being finished, i booted into the bios and reset all the settings to default. So far it has been restarting without any problems for windows setup stuff, which is a good sign as when i was installing just the base win8, it had to restart and got locked up in that black screen. Ill have to narrow down what in the bios triggers the issue, but i believe that it is something to do with fastboot as nothing else really makes sense. Worst case its the OCGenie button, or OCing the ram that was doing it, but im not sure if you were doing those so that may or may not be a similar thing that you are doing.
