Z97 GAMING 9 AC - PCIE no longer detecting

Hi,
So I recently purchased a new system including the MSI Z97 GAMING 9 AC motherboard and MSI R9 280X GAMING G3 graphics card. After building the system I initially had problems with the graphics card not being detected. After some research I updated the bios to 1.4 and used the onboard graphics card to install windows 8.1, drivers etc. After windows, drivers etc were installed the graphics card still would not detect until I went into the bios and changed the PCIE to 2.0 (instead of auto). This then used the 280x instead of onboard and allowed me to install the graphics card drivers. I switched the PCIE to 3.0 after it was working.
Initially everything was working but the next morning I had the same issue again: only the onboard graphics card was being used. I switched back to PCIE 2.0 and it worked again. Until the next morning: the 280x is no longer being detected at all in any PCIE slots or in PCIE auto, 2.0 or 3.0. I have ruled out a graphics card issue as the 280x works in other pcs. I have tried another graphics card in this system and it does not seem to work either. In bios it just always says that the PCIE slots are 'empty'.
So I have tried the following:
1. Cleared CMOS.
2. Updated BIOS.
3. Updated Chipset, drivers etc.
4. Tested the Graphics Card in other computers.
5. Used a different graphics card in this system.
6. Tried PCIE 2.0, 3.0 and auto.
7. Completely reformated and started from scratch.
Any suggestions as to why the PCIE slots seem to have stopped detecting?

Was this issue ever solved as im seeing the same issue.
When I first booted the machine all was well however when I came to reboot my machine for the first time it no longer sees I have a GPU and so switched to the Intel onboard 4600.
At first I assumed the GPU had come lose or some BIOS setting needed changing. BIOS is set to use PEG (PCI-E Graphics card device) so i reseated the card and rebooted. This didn't work.
I reset the BIOS CMOS and that fixed the issue, my machine booted using the graphics card again however as soon I rebooted windows again it lost the card switching back to the onboard.
According to the BIOS the PCI-E slot is empty. I swapped the card out for an older ATI 7870 but had the same problem. PCI-E slot is empty unless I clear the CMOS (I made no changes in the BIOS).
At this point it sounds like some kind of software issue I have updated my BIOS to the latest version (1.5) but that hasn't fixed the issue. Whenever I shutdown or restart it will lose sight of my card unless I clear the CMOS or power down at the wall.

Hey, Yes I'm running the latest nvidia drivers. Regardless if i can boot into windows with it detecting the card i can run it for hours on end without issue and drivers would not cause the bios to say the slot is empty so i don't think it's a driver issue.
I also don't think it would be an issue with dirt on the PCIE connecters on the card as using another card i get the same issue.
I have no idea how I would go about cleaning the PCIE connector on the board but again would be odd that a CMOS reset would fix a dirt issue.
however i noticed on the board compatibility page it doesn't show i7 4790k being a supported CPU, but does show the GTX 970 so maybe its a BIOS issue...
I have returned the board and asked for a replacement will update once i get my new board.

Z97 Gaming 5 PCIe slots empty?

New build and mobo has never detected any graphics cards. I have flashed the bios and now have latest versions of bios (1.9) and me (9.1.25.1005), cleared CMOS and reset bios defaults but still no joy, PCIe slots still show as empty.
Anyone else had this issue?

have you done this? if yes what are the results?

have you attached all power cables to the video card?
and have you connected monitor cable to it?

MSI Z97 Gaming 3 PCI slots problem

I have last one problem with pci slots asmedia on mb. In one of the slots installed sound card ASUS Xonar D2/PM, and after installation driver, getting settings to work with sound system 5.1, some times on very first second of start the music track, in speakers i hear one high "click", and same has been when i rewinding music tracks! I tested this sound card on another motherboard old P45 intel before, but worked pretty fine.
Sorry, my english is no good!
Maybe this problem with compatible?

Are you able to try unplug all the 5.1 audio jack and plug one back each time to see which one has the problem?
Yes of course
Quote from: JLio01 on 08-May-15, 12:49:34
Do you have Sound Blaster Cinema installed?
No
It's no card problem, this program on controller or program with mb!
On another mb, i have pretty fine normally sound without "click"!

Z97 GAMING 9 AC - PCIE and the wi-fi module no longer detecting

Hi,
I 'm Overclocking enthusiast and recently decided to take to my hometown in Brazil using a platform products from MSI, to make disclosure of benchmark tests in social networks and in gaming blogs.
So i purchased a new system including the MSI Z97 GAMING 9 AC motherboard and MSI Gaming N770 TF 4GD5/OC GeForce GTX 770 4GB graphics card. After building the system I initially had problems with the graphics card not being detected and the wi-fi module (that hard to fit in the mobo) don't even appear in device manager. I already tried to dismount and remount the module on the motherboard with extreme care, no success. After some research I updated the bios to 1.5 and used the onboard graphics card to install windows 8.1, drivers etc. After windows, drivers etc were installed the graphics card and the wi-fi module still would not detect.
I have tried another graphics card in this system and it does not seem to work either. In bios it just always says that the PCIE slots are 'empty'.
So I have tried the following:
1. Cleared CMOS.
2. Updated BIOS.
3. Updated Chipset, drivers etc.
4. Tested the Graphics Card in other computers.
5. Used a different graphics card in this system.
6. Tried PCIE 2.0, 3.0 and auto.
7. Completely reformated and started from scratch.
So after many attempts I am disappointed with MSI and need some solution to my problem, since I saw that several customers who have purchased from MSI are the same product with exactly the same problem which possibly conclude that MSI has a duty to resolve these cases.

I have the exact same problem with my gaming 9 AC only the PCIe slot for gfx card worked initially. MSI support sent me a new WiFi adapter, it also didnt work. When I installed it, the PCIe slot would not identify my graphics card anymore. MSI support then advised me to return the board to the reseller, where it is now - they are checking it for defects before they do anything.
Ill keep you updated how they proceed from here. If there are any more problems I will just ask my reseller to downgrade me to a gaming 7, I can add a pcie wifi card on my own, and avoid the hassle.

New Z97 Gaming AC board and MSI gtx780

All,
Been banging my head against the wall all night on this. Hopefully its something easy. Got my new rig assembled:
I5 4670k
MSI Z97-Gaming 9 AC LGA 1150 Intel Z97
MSI Gaming N780 TF 3GD5/OC GeForce GTX 780 3GB
Have a M.2 intel SSD installed
Windows 8.1 64 installed no issues
For the life of me, I can not get the motherboard to detect the 780, I updated to the latest bios using the USB flash utility, no issues. Completed successfully.
Using the Board viewer it shows nothing in the PCIE slot, I have also tried SLOT 2 still no luck.
The MB still does not show anything inserted into the slot.
Any suggestions would greatly appreciated...
Thanks in advance

Well, wish I had good news, but not so much. With everything setup on a test bench the board wont even post with a card plugged into the PCIE slot. Remove the card post, and into the bios every time. Tried clearing CMOS, all 3 PCIE slots just a no go.
RMA is issued and it will be going back tomorrow.
*Fingers crossed on the new board*
Thanks for all the suggestions, will let you know what happens when the new board arrives.
Cheers

MSI Z97-G45 Gaming VS MSI Z97 Gaming 5

Hello there!
As I received much of good help on these forums already, here comes my next help request. I will have to decide which motherboard should I buy soon (upgrading to Intel Core i7 4790K), I have done some research and found out that these two models I mentioned in the thread subject would be of my main interest. I am, however, a bit uninformed, as I could not find any test of MSI Z97-G45 Gaming. I have a few questions about those two.
First of all, Z97-G45 has a fast boot in official specification on MSI Global and Gaming 5 does not say anything about it. Does it mean that Gaming 5 boots long? How I should understand that?
I think Z97-G45 looks better, that red dragon is really fancy, however Gaming 5 laminate looks more black, which makes it also atractive to me.
All that I really need to know is, which one of these will perform better for CPU overclocking? Is there any difference at all? The price is really simillar. I also see that G45 does not contain an M.2 and neither of them got Sata Express. Could anyone explain if Sata Express or M.2 are really worth having them right now? Will M.2 improve my current SSD speeds? And Sata Express will improve my HDD speed? Or how does it work? Will it only boost up drives that are particularly made to work with those connectors?
Thanks in advance!

All modern mainboards support fastboot as it is a Windows8 feature.

Z97 Gaming 5 is the more modern board. It offers more ram speed dividers. M.2 is pretty much standard for Z97 boards so G45 is more an option for those still willing to use slower msata devices. Of course M.2 is only any use for you if you are using a PCI-Express based (!) M.2 SSD. If you buy such an M.2 SSD (e.g. Plextor M6E) then it will speed up data transfer a lot as SATA 6GB/s limits latest generation SSDs already. M.2 on Z97 boards being PCI-Express based is running directly through PCIe lanes to the CPU while throughput of SATA is limited by the SATA interface. SATA Express being a similar technology is not supported by both boards but devices are also not available really.

Windows no longer detecting my Audigy 4?(Non-P

Hey all. I've had my Audigy 4 (non-Pro) installed and working super for about 50 days, but it started giving me a weird problem. Windows was no longer detecting the card! It was weird. DX Diag, programs like EVEREST... they all report no sound card whatsoever.
Here are my PC specs:
XP Home Edition
Albatron K8X800 Pro
S754 3200+ ClawHammer
x 2 OCZ ELPE 52 MB(2-3-2-5)
Visiontek XTASY X850XT PE
x 80 GB SATA 2 Seagate, x 80 GB Maxtor
Some other things to note:
XP has been repaired. Went from Service Pack , updates, and all the way to Service Pack 2. The card requires XP w/SP2, yes, so I have that covered.
Onboard audio is disabled through the bios. I have AC'97 integrated audio on this.
My motherboard has fi've PCI slots - although I can only access 4 because my video card is in the way, and I have tried three of those and I get the same problem.
I have tried it in other PCs in my house, double-checked each time - so it is not ESD as I originally believed. It works just fine on those PCs. It is being not located only on MY PC.
So guys and gals, I do not know what to do... I am stumped. It's the weekend so I can't call Creative support until Monday. I don't want to request an RMA through my warranty because clearly it's just a problem with my PC. What should I do?!Message Edited by Celsius on -26-2005 07:36 PM

Update Z97 Gaming 5 BIOS

Hi,
I recently have acquired this motherboard and come with BIOS v1.0 (build date: 08/2014)
My system specs are:
i5 4690k
msi z97 gaming 5
ATI radeon hd5750
HyperX Savage 16gb ram 1600Mhz
SSD 850 EVO 250Gb
HDD Samsung 750Gb
sometime the system is unstable (mainly when I'm downloading a file at max Mbs the CPU goes to 100%) so I'm think to update bios to the last version 1.9
I see the like referred MSI Forum HQ USB flashing tool. My first question is: Is this procedure different than the normal procedure using M-Flash?
I see that I can update BIOS on the site in this way:
1) Download last BIOS (7917v19.zip)
2) Put it on removable drive (with FAT32)
3) Restart PC going On the MSI Click BIOS 4
4) Load the downloaded BIOS using M-Flash utilities
Are there some steps that I missing? Is this procedure safe if I have all PC assembled with all piece (CPU, RAM, HDD, etc.)?
Best Regards
Vincenzo

Hi,
I've to download BIOS 1.0 form MSI site or Save it form BIOS in order to have exactly the previous?
I think the one from the site should be fine, won't do any harm to save the one you have either.
Quote from: sorrentinov
If something goes wrong is possible to reload the old Bios?
This depends on how wrong it went.
Quote from: sorrentinov
Moreover I have to disconnect something or can I flash with all PC assembled?
You can never be too safe, but you should be good with everything connected as long there is no OC, CPU or RAM.
Some BIOS instructions requite that the flash drive is recognized as removable, see instruction on MSI site.
Quote from: sorrentinov
The better way to update bios is using m-flash?
Some may say the forum tool is safer, I myself don't believe in magic, IMO they are equally unsafe, a spike in electricity and you may end with a brick.
Quote from: flobelix on 03-May-15, 23:00:24
If wanting to update to bios 1.9 there is no single need to download bios 1.0.
None at all?

MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC Not picking up GTX 560 Card

Just upgraded my PC to a Z97 Gaming 9 AC Board along with a i7 4790k and a Corsair 750RM Power supply + Coolermaster Stryker Case. I completed the build up last night and when I switched it on, it would not actually pick up my GTX 560 card at all, and when I went to the BIOS and checked the plugged in feature, it shows the PCIe slot is empty, but my GPU is plugged in, also tried all the PCIe slots, and there is nothing in Device Manager, just the Intel HD 4600.
What I Tried:
Set it to PEG, still nothing
Updated the BIOS to latest version
Tried the GPU in diff PC and it worked.
Tried a diff power supply in my new PC and still same thing, not picking it up.
So I don't know what to do anymore, also did a fresh install of windows 8.1.
Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Fixed, was a bad connection with the WiFi adapter to the motherboard, just re-inserted it properly and now GPU is working aswell.
can you explain it better?
what connection wifi adapter has with the video card recognition?

MSI GTX980 Gaming sometimes not recognized by MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC

I have been experiencing a very odd problem with my new hardware.
Hardware
Motherboard: MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790
CPU-cooler: Scythe Mugen 4
RAM: G.Skill RipjawsZ F3-17000CL9Q-16GBZH
Videocard: MSI GeForce GTX 980 4GB GAMING 4G
PSU: Seasonic X-660 80+ Gold
SSD: Crucial M550 2,5" 1TB
Monitor#1: LG 34UM95-P
Monitor #2: Eizo Foris FG2421
OS: Windows 7 Professional
Issue description
The thing is that with 2 monitors connected the videocard is not recognized on a cold boot, but boots perfectly most of the time after a restart. In some cases a restart doesn't do the trick. I have even seen a couple of times that the monitor shows that windows starts and then the monitor loses the signal from the videocard before I can see the desktop (rare). With just 1 monitor attached the videocard is recognized. Als the IGP works fine, it's just the videocard that doesn't seem to be recognized when 2 monitors are connected (all combinations of DP, HDMI and DVI). When the computer has booted after one or more restarts and the videocard is recognized the computer works flawlessly, no problems whatever I do with it (desktop work, stressing hardware, playing games, etc.). Not a single sign of instability.
It's just the cold boot and sometimes the soft boot or restart that causes the videocard to not being recognized with 2 monitors connected.
What makes it really weird to me is that when the computer goes into sleep mode I can wake it up normally within say 10 minutes. But if I wait for let's say an hour the videocard is not transmitting a signal through the videocard.
When IGP is enabled the computer boots and windows loads normally (I hear the sound of the Windows login), although the monitors stay black when connected to the videocard. Then switching the connectors from the videocard to the motherboard shows me a normal Windows login screen, but the videocard is not visible in the device list. When the IGP is disabled to bootup sequence just hangs until a restart works and the computer boots normally with the videocard getting recognized and working properly.
Click sounds
I noticed the motherboard makes 4 click sounds when booting, like relays flipping. I think it has to to with distributing power to al the components, since it looks like components respond to the click by turning led lights on. But I have to say I've never come across a motherboard before that makes click sounds. Is this normal?
Tried fixes
- Replaced the RAM with 100% working RAM from my other computer (Corsair Vengeance LP CML8GX3M2A1600C9) -> problem persists
- Disabed XMP -> problem persists
- Replaced the PSU with another one (Cooler Master V550 Semi-Modular) -> problem persists
- Reinstalled the videocard physically -> problem persists
- Tried several combinations of connecting the 2 monitors to the videocard (all DP ports, HDMI and DVI) -> problem persists
- Replaced the videocard with a MSI GTX970 Gaming (connected with 1xDP and 1xHDMI) -> problem persists
Conclusions so far
The cause can be found in the videocard or motherboard (probably BIOS issue).
Who can shed some light on this issue?

Quote from: JLio01 on 14-November-14, 17:02:39
Try all PCIE slots no luck? Does the black screen always happen on one certain monitor or both?
I tried both the first and the second PCIe slot. No difference except for the fact that in the second slot the card only works at x8 bandwidth.
Quote from: jotan.va on 24-November-14, 18:05:51
BTW - Did anybody try to remove the wifi module from the board and then test?
I didn't install the wifi module in the first place.
UPDATE
I returned the motherboard to the webshop I bought it from and sent my cpu, ram, psu and videocard (GTX980) with it so they could test it. They found out that the videocard is the problem. So now I have to send the videocard to the webshop it bought that from. However, I am suspecting that it's just a VBIOS problem and not some fault in the hardware itself. On the other hand, it would be very strange that MSI would release a videocard that cannot work with one of their own top motherboards, wouldn't it?

Graphics Card not Recognised on Z97 Gaming 9 AC

Hi,
I'm hoping someone here can help me. I have a Z97 Gaming 9 AC Motherboard and a Zotac GTX970 Graphics card.
All 3 PCIe slots are showing as empty in the Bios. I have to use the onboard HDMI to get into Windows 7.
I've tried updating the Bios to the BETA version from this forum using the flasher tool but it hasn't helped.
The fans on the card are spinning so I think it has power. It has two 6 pin power cables coming from my Corsair 750 psu. I've tried different cables and different sockets on the psu.
I've read through this forum for over two days before posting here.
Please help me!

Well yeah, you would have to have VERY bad luck in order to get both cards broken.
Get your friend test your cards and we'll see what can be done.
Did you try switching BIOS A to B? Might be BIOS A corrupted (if I remember it right, this board has dual BIOS?)
My last thought: if cards work fine in friend's PC, take your CPU out and look for bent pins in the socket. Also look around the motherboard for any damage signs or similar (colour differences etc).

[SOLVED] Network interface enp2s0 no longer detected

Hello,
Yesterday after rebooting, right after Grub, systemd-fsck does its stuff (clearing blocks, etc...) then nothing.
After a quick research I've found that removing "quiet" from the Grub command line would allow more messages to be displayed, which was quite helpful.
This is in fact not a partition mounting problem, here is what I have:
[ OK ] Started Accounts Service.
[ TIME ] Time out waiting for device sys-subsytem-net-devices-enp2s0.device
[ DEPEND ] Dependency failed for dhcpcd on enp2s0.
[ OK ] Reached target Multi-User System.
[ OK ] Reached target Graphical Interface.
I obviously have a networking problem (and probably a "Graphical Interface" or Nvidia related thing problem), so I log in another console, and after doing ip link list, I only have the loopback listed, no enp2s0 or WiFi interface, for some reason they are no longer detected.
I've run the live version of Arch to mount and arch-chroot my partitions, not to mention my network interfaces are detected and I can upgrade things with pacman, I've tried to disable dhcpcd on enp2s0 to avoid the time out thing, and while I can say it does what it's supposed to do, it doesn't solve anything anyway since I'm still stuck at Reached target Graphical Interface. (and don't have any network access, to state the obvious).
I've even thought about a Kernel/Driver problem after an update, but I'm not sure, any idea or some log I can have a look at ?
Thank you for your time.

Microphone issue with MSI Z97 GAMING 5

Hi there!.
I have just set up my new computer and i have problems with my microphone. My mainboard is a "MSI Z97 GAMING 5" and my box: NOX Coolbay SX.
I have installed the drivers from disk and tryed also searching drivers on the web of MSI. I can hear with my speakers with no problems, same with my headset. But there is no way to use my microphone. I put it in the front panel, then i checked the control panel - sound and Windows tell me that the microphone is connected, but dont work. if i put it in the back panel, the realtek HD administrator tell me that something is connected in the microphone slot but WIndows dont detect it.
in the BIOS, the HD Audio is ENABLED. I dont have any idea about what to do now. I have search on this forum but i havent seen this same issue. Can you help me?
Thanks and sorry about my english.

MSI Z97 Gaming 7 power up problem

Hi
Just build a new PC with Z97 Gaming 7, but when powering up it lighten up and the debug led is runing through a lot of numbers and then it powers down. It takes only a few seconds.
I have measured the voltage on pin JPWR1 an JPWR2 and all the levels are correct.
I have cunsulted the manual for levels on the V-Check connector but I can't find any.
I have measured the voltage on that connector and they are as follows:
Pin1 - VCCIN =1.765V
Pin2 - DDR =1.5V
Pin3 - Core = 0.75V
Pin4 - GFX = 0V
Pin5 - Ring = 0.76V
Pin6 - C_SA =0.9V
I have tried to unplug all the connectors (SSD, HDD, DVD, Fan's etc.) one at a time with no result.
I have tried to set RAM in different positions (got two blocks of 8Gb).
1. Dimm1 and Dimm2
2. Dimm1 and Dimm3
3. Dimm2 and Dimm4
4. Dimm1 (only one block and tried both seperate)
Same result
I took the graphic card out and the WiFi PCIe card - same result.
I took the JPWR2 power plug out and then it didn't power down but of course the CPU is not running then.
Hope someone can help me, please
/Mads
My setup is:
Board: X97 Gaming 7
Bios ver: Default as derlivered(Can't see it because it never boot up)
