Z97 Gaming 5 Flashing / Ticking Debug Code 00

Hi,
My new rig I built over a week ago which was working fine, until I came home to power on and the system was not posting and I heard a consistent ticking sound coming from the tower. So I opened the side panel and audio lights coinciding with debug led were flashing 00. I've tried reseting the cmos, didn't work. What else can I do? I hope this is not bricked mobo being how young it is.. Please help!
CPU: i5 4690k
PSU: Corsair 750RM
Memory: 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance
Mobo: MSI Gaming 5
Video: Asus GTX 970
Storage: Samsung Evo 840 500GB

Try to turn off your Power supply or plug out the 24pin /8 pin power cable from the motherboard, then try
clear CMOS and wait for 1 min and then replug the power cable to the MB first.
If still have problem, try to plug out the memory and just plug in 1 memory, try also to plug out the Video card and use the onboard VGA first for testing.

MSI Z97 Gaming 7 (A2 ERROR CODE)

Hi everyone, because I have a problem with my Motherboard MSI Z97 Gaming 7 is that when I turn on my PC after display the code 99 and 9C, remains suspended in A2. From what I've read, this code is for a hard drive failure. The system remains in A2 indefinitely code until the reset button is pressed PC. In the second restart smoothly enters the operating system.
My System Hardware is:
*MSI Z97 Gaming 7 (1.90 BIOS)
*Intel Core I7 4770K (NO Overclock)
*16GB Corsair Vengeance (2x8GB) Memory
*MSI R7970 Lightning X2 CrossfireX
*Crucial M4 128GB SSD
*Seagate Barracuda 1TB Hard Disk
*EK Custom Liquid Cooling System
*Generic All in One Card Reader
*LG DVD/RW Drive
*Corsair AX1200i Power Supply
Then I tell them what I have tried without success this problem.
* Update BIOS to 1.9 Versión (Latest)
* Update SSD Firmware to 070H (Latest)
* Change SATA Cables
* Change SATA Ports
* Reinstall Windows 8.1 in UEFI and Legacy Mode
* Test each Ram Memory Sticks
* Disconect internal USB Card Reader, Front Ports and Corsair Digital Link
* Test try another SSD (Kingston V300 128GB)
After trying all these things, the system is still hanging in A2 Error
Thanks for any help you can give me.

You could try your device 1 by 1 and see which one of it is causing the A2 issue
about this i already suggested the same:
Quote from: Svet on 23-April-15, 21:42:28
connected them one by one, and see which is causing this hang eventually
he said any one of them alone is caused this A2 when its connected:
Quote from: sebastianmancipe on 23-April-15, 21:49:10
Already perform this test with any 3 devices, SSD, HDD or DVD's the same.
Curiously hangs on A2 code when first turned not when restarted.

¿this version of BIOS where it came from? It is official? because they have not posted on the official website of the Z97 Gaming 7? as had understood the latest BIOS for this motherboard is the 1.90
its official, but beta bios and newer than your current.
try all other things 1st that people suggested you, leave bios flashing as last option

Msi z97 gaming motherboard displays debug led D0 (00) .

Hello all.
I urgently need some advice.
I recently bought a msi z97 gaming 5 motherboard and I had it installed into my rig. Everything was working fine. I decided to do some cable management in my case today and afterwards wanted to switch my pc on to find it dead. I switched off the power and made sure that I discharged all electrostatic power.
The psu delivers power to the board as all the case fans spin, the light trail lights up an my fan controller works.
My peripherals (key board, mouse) don't light, as well as my monitor. There is ia also no boot beeps.
The debug led displays a code 00 which is not in the manual. I already tried removing the cmos batery and also cleared the cmos with the cmos jumper en still nothing.
I even removed both my ram modules and still no boot beeps.
If there is someone out there please help...

i got the same issue by chance few days ago 00 error but with dual bios chip board.
and able to fix it,
i narrow it down that somehow the bios chip selection wasn't switched ..
even after power off, and flip the switch i meet 00 error and no LED on bios chip has light
switching to the secondary bios chip worked fine,
then when i flip the bios chip while the system was booted, switching was successfully,
and at next power off and power up was booting with the other bios chip fine and no longer 00 error
however for your board, i see board has 1 bios chip only
im not sure if would have bios chip led indicator or not..
checking high res image of your board at: https://media.msi.com/main.php?g2_itemId=110010&g2_imageViewsIndex=1
think i can see the led indicator side by side to JBAT1
so your board probably also should have bios chip led indicator
and based on your second photo that you provided: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=253991.0;attach=22345;image
i don't see this LED to light... it should be near to 00 debug code
so probably bios chip doesn't kick in for some reason...
and i don't know how this can be fixed since your board don't have dual bios chips..
looks like something become damaged when you tried to re-arrange your cables..
else don't have idea what else you can try, except to rma the board

MSI X99S Gaming 7 and debug code 67

Hi,
I have MSI X99S Gaming 7 motherboard, Crucial 2x8GB 2133 DDR4, MSI GTX970 Gaming 4G, Corsair RM650, i7-5820k setup.
When I am trying to boot the machine it always stops and the debug led shows code 67. I have tried to take everything out, reseated processor and to boot with just the minimum set of components. Result is always the same code 67.
I am running out of ideas. Do you have any hints or should I just return the mobo and processor?
Best Regards,
juha

So are you going to RMA the board or just use it with 2 sticks? Thats means you are not planning on using it in quad channel, would be a waste.
Anyways if I were you I would definatly RMA it asap. This error 67 problem people are having seems to be widespread. MSI really need to look into this.
As has been said previously, contact MSI. Should they look into it? Yes, but the moderators here are not MSI employees, and while we can bring issues to their attention, we cannot make them look into problems.
So if you have this problem, please contact MSI directly: >>How to contact MSI.<<

Z97 Gaming 5 Debug Codes 41, 42, 43, and 44

Just built my first PC and I am having issues with it.
I have it plugged into a monitor and it does not display anything but I am getting codes on debug codes on the motherboard.
My build is below in case it helps.
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Motherboard: MSI Z97-GAMING 5 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

Case: Thermaltake Level 10 GT Snow Edition ATX Full Tower Case
Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA 1000G2 1000W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive: *LG UH12NS30 Blu-Ray Reader, DVD/CD Writer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 (OEM) (64-bit)
Like the subject said I am getting a few error codes.
It starts at the lower numbers than sticks around for a bit eventually moving to the higher ones and seems to cap at 44.
Any help on this issue would be immensely appreciated.
Also as a side note I have checked the users manual error code listings but it doesn't seem to contain these specific codes. If I am wrong on this could you tell me where on the manual it lists these?
Thank you very much for your time.

I get visual output when I unplug my video card.
When entering the boot menu and selecting UEFI: Built-In EFI Shell I get the following
EFI: Shell version 2.31 [4.655]
Current running mode 1.1.2

Press ESC in 1 seconds to skip startup.nsh, any other key to continue

Doesn't matter what I press it doesn't do anything
Entering setup instead of the EFI shell takes me to MSi's click bios 4
When I enter the board explorer it shows all the components that I have plugged in as running.
I am at a complete loss to what I need to do to install updates, OS, and to get my video card working.
listed above sounds correct
you need to boot from a bootable device who contain your OS installation disk to proceed with OS install.
about your Video card
when you install it, in which slot is placed?
and have you connected your display to it after that? [not to onboard GPU]
and have you attached all power cables for it?

PC won't boot. MSI Gaming 7 motherboard had a debug code of 67.

PC won't boot. MSI Gaming 7 motherboard had a **debug code of 67**.
I ran Malwarebytes this morning, it found some stuff, I had it remove them and rebooted. Haven't been able to get my PC to boot since :(
When I begin booting, nothing happens at all on the monitors, the PC itself has power and it looks like it's on but I only get this error code 67 on the motherboard and that's it.
Really don't want to unseat the CPU for any reason to troubleshoot that. CPU is always a pain in the ass for me to remove and place back into a PC. lol.

try >>Clear CMOS Guide<< with power cord removed
Tried that, didn't work.
Unseated each RAM stick, didn't work.
Removed the CPU, cleaned off the thermal grease, reseated it, replaced grease and heatsink. Didn't work.
Literally unplugged and replugged everything in one by one and none of it fixed the problem. Still receive error code 67.
Have no damn idea what the heck is going on.

MSI x99 Gaming 7 Debug code 04

hi this day my computer dont start only black screen , i see mobo debug code 04
msi x99 gaming 7 service manuel say 04 code = Power on South Bridge Initialization
i use 2. bios swich computer working no problem
now i go RMA?
edit: me try bios clear button nothing always full black screen and debug code 04 , i cant remove bios battery 2 graphic card + water cooling :/

If you familiar with flashing bios, you can try use the second bios to recover the first one.
Manuel has some guide...
BIOS recovery with AFUDOS command
When BIOS updating fails or causes the computer non-bootable, you can recover the
failed BIOS by the steps below.
Preparation:
1. Prepare a bootable USB flash drive.
2. Download the latest BIOS file from the MSI official website at www.msi.com, and
then decompress the file.
3. Copy the AFUDE238.exe and the BIOS file to the bootable USB flash drive
BIOS recovery steps:
1. Power off the computer.
2. Set the Multi-BIOS switch to the functional BIOS ROM.
3. Insert the bootable USB flash drive you have made to the USB port.
4. Boot the computer into the bootable USB flash drive.
5. Set the Multi-BIOS switch to the failed BIOS ROM.
6. Execute the below command to flash the BIOS:
For example: AFUDE238 EXXXXIMS.XXX
7. Restart the computer after the BIOS flashing is complete.
Important
Do not use the Multi-BIOS switch when system is booting up.

Z97 Gaming 7 won't post. debug LEDs at 41-43. MSI LED is off.

Hi everyone,
Doing my first build in quite a few years so somewhat of a Noob. I'm using an MSI Gaming 7 and an Intel 4970k. I'm using 2x4GB Crucial 1833 SDRAM.
After hooking CPU and MB, and cooler (Evo 212) I decided to see if things boot before installing a dedicated GPU, drives, etc.
Unfortunately, I don't get to boot, and instead I get stuck in an early post: I go past 99->33-> then I eventually get stuck around 41-43 with the numbers occasionally shifting back. According to the manual, this is "early memory initialization error". I've tried using a single RAM in each of the slot, and then also tried the other one instead. No luck, always the same point.
Not sure what to do at this point, and whether there's a way to check if the MB or the CPU or both are hosed.
Also, I'm wondering why the MSI LED is not on. Should it be on up to the boot? What is its purpose?

I'm using a Corsair CS650m.
I've noticed the CPU support issue after I encountered my problem and was surprised to see this, my understanding that the gaming boards did support the new Haswells, at least with a recent BIOS. In fact, there are some references online to BIOS update issues for this CPU.
Let me ask a crazy question: Is it possible that I've somehow POSTed correctly and what I'm seeing now is the CPU term? I'm wondering because the numbers (42-44) fluctuate a bit. I know that POST and POST2 can be used for CPU temp, but I'm not sure how one distinguishes between that and a debug code.

Z97 gaming 5 error code 26

So im troubleshooting a new build and the computer turns on but not post and I get the LED code 00 then 15 then finally 26 but I cant find any reference of code 26- anyone know what it means?
Cheers

So i found that when I moved 1 stick of ram to dimm slot 4, it works and boots up.
However, if I add a second, paired stick to slow 2, the same "26" code appears and the same is true if I have all four sticks in.
I checked in the BIOS to make sure the RAM was set up with the correct voltage and i also have tried each stick indvidually AND in different slots,to no success aside from one stick in Slot 4.
any ideas? Here is my build:
Board: MSI Z97 gaming 5
VGA: Asus GTX 970 Strix DirectCU II OC 4GB GDDR5
PSU: Be Quiet Pure Power L8 630W Semi Modular 80+ Bronze Power Supply
Intel Core i7 4790K 4GHz Socket 1150 8MB L3 Cache Retail Boxed Processor
MEM: Crucial 16GB kit (8GBx2) DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800) CL9 @1.5V Ballistix Sport UDIMM 240pin

Z97 Gaming 5 - code 00

Since I moved my pc over to a new case I'm having some problems. When I boot it, 9 out of 10 times it shuts off again after a second. When it doesn't, it doesn't do anything and the mobo's debug code shows 00. Does this mean a dead board or could there be something else wrong?
CPU: i7 4790k
GPU: MSI GTX 980 Gaming 4G
PSU: EVGA Supernova 750 G2

Hi
Take it out of the case and try booting on non conductive surface like wooden table or motherboard box. As from what you say, sounds like new case shortens something somewhere
