    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    Ive got my eye on an ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 I can pick up for $95. The pc doesn't get used all that often and I don't want to buy all the components and a new cooler.

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    Final update: Online w/MSI tech again. He informed me that I had to boot into windows, put in the thumb drive, and run the program on the thumb drive. Did that, PC restarted on its own, and now I have a flashing cursor in my upper rich corner of my screen. I guess it's fried. Can anyone...

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    I chatted online with a MSI tech this evening. I sent him a picture of my BIOS screen and he stated that it was an old one. Cool, but an old one. I tried the same things as he suggested which are the same things I’ve mentioned here.

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    I followed the directions. First, I unzipped the downloaded to my desktop, then copied that to my USB drive. That didn't work so I copied the one file in that folder to my thumb drive. That didn't work either. My thumb drive was freshly formatted (full, not quick format) and had only the one...

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    I’ve used all the USB ports on my motherboard, the one on my keyboard, and the two on my case. Frustrating.

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    Well, my manual didn’t have anything specific about flashing the bios. I did read your link and tried renaming it to “MSI.Rom”, to no avail. I even renamed the usb stick to the name of the flash file, again, to no avail. At least this time, when I choose the “select the UEFI to flash”, I get a...

    Thanks. I’ll give it a try.

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    Yeah, I noticed that with my original thumb drive, a 128gb. When I went to format it it showed exfat32. A little investigating told me I had too big a thumb drive. I scrounged around and found a 8gb and formatted it in fat32.

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    **UPDATE #2** I put the system back together. I found a small (8gb) flash drive and copied the contents of the zipped bios file to the thumb drive (only one file). I got into the bios and went to the “M-Flash” section. I chose the option to flash from a uefi(?) device. It opened a pop up window...

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    **UPDATE** I took the motherboard out of the case and unhooked everything except for video, keyboard, and one stick of memory. It seems that there was only one USB port on the back of the motherboard that recognized the keyboard. It booted up to the bios, but I couldn’t find a USB port to...

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    That's all well and good, but I re-installed my old cpu that was working fine and it did the same thing as stated in post #11.

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    Today I tried unhooking everything from the PC except for the mouse and video cards after clearing the cos on both the back of the pc and on the motherboard...still does the same thing.

    I have tried resetting with the cmos button on the back as well as putting in a new cmos battery.

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    Originally I was looking on another site, but finally found and downloaded the bios update on MSI's site. I'm completely stumped over this. I guess this is what I get for wanting a few extra nano seconds of performance.

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    Well, the only site where I could find that bios is giving me an internal service error when I tried to download it I put the old cpu in it and it’s doing the same thing now! :mad:

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    I like Seasonic as well, although several years ago I Wass a beta tester for Cooler Master and received both a 500 and 1000W for testing that I got to keep. I'm not sure of their (Cooler Master) quality, but they were both 80+ Gold.

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    BTW, will that Seasonic 750W PSU be enough to handle this setup with the i7?

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    Guess I’ll need to reinstall the old cpu and hopefully it’ll boot up and I can check the bios. Thanks for that tip, fellas!

    Question **FINAL UPDATE!** "New" CPU, powers on then off

    I'm running a MSI P67A GD-80 Rev.3 with 16GB ram, 5850 video card, a 1 and 2TB HDD, and 2 DVD R/W's. I previously had an i5 2500K in it and it ran fine. I decided to "upgrade" to an i7 3700. After I installed it and hit the power button, the system powered on (ie lights on motherboard, fans...

    Question Unusual problem

    *UPDATE* Received the MSI motherboard. Put the memory and cpu in it, connected all connections and cables, pushed the power button and it fired right up! I know this isn’t a high end setup, but it’s only going to be used for internet surfing and online bill payment.

    Done. It still doesn’t make sense to me why the pc was working fine one day and dead the next.

    Question Unusual problem

    *UPDATE* I dug out an OLD ABIT IP35-E motherboard I had lying around in my workshop into yet another wall socket. Plugged in the PSU connectors and the LED light on the motherboard came on immediately. Shorted out the pins on the PWR header and the PSU fan fired up. Unplugged the PSU and...

    Question Unusual problem

    I recently moved my tower from its normal perch in order to repair a window. It had been shut down properly before moving. When I moved it back and plugged everything in, it would not power on. Completely dead. I removed one of the memory sticks and tried again, nothing. I removed the battery...

    Cooler & quieter solution for 5830

    I've got a reference ATI HD 5830 (Engineering sample). Is there a better cooling solution I can get for it that may be a little more quiet as well? Thanks.

    Pondering retiring my V1000BW

    Yeah...i'm somewhat interested in the 650D. I've also looked at the MountainMods Monticle 18, but it appears that one must purchase alot of extras to finish it...i.e. hdd cage. I've also looked at the Zalman Z-Machine GT900, but I don't know about the 2x92mm front fans.

    Pondering retiring my V1000BW

    I think I need something with a little more/better airflow (as i'm not interested in water cooling), but I DEFINITELY don't want a HAF, Lancool, Fractal series or anything Antec. I guess i'm spoiled to aluminum. Since owning this case, i've tried the Sonata II, P180B, CM 690, Lancool...

    UPS question

    What's the difference between a "Back-UPS" & a "Smart-UPS"? Does a home user need that "Sine wave" stuff?

    UPS question

    I may be wrong, but some UPS's come with software that'll automatically shut down the PC for you. The older UPS's hooked up via a RS-232 & the newer ones hook up via USB.

    UPS question

    Well, I'd like to have a little runtime...enough to do a proper shutdown. The power company around here is iffy...quite a few surges, etc.

    UPS question

    I'm in the market for a UPS. Since i'm on a limited budget, i'll probably purchase a pre-owned unit. I'm unsure as to what size of a unit i'll need as I have no kill-a-watt (or whatever it's called. If a seller is selling a pre-owned model & states that it powers on & passes diagnostics, are the...
