Hello,

 

I have a problem with my DH87MC, when I try to access the BIOS through F2 it freezes and I have to restart the computer.

 

I can access both F7 and F10 functionalities.

 

I already tried to upgrade the BIOS, downgrade de BIOS, reset the motherboard clock, tried to use another keyboard to see if the problem was with the keyboard, but nothing worked.

 

Can you guys please help me?


dh67bl problem after AC power renewed

$

0

Hello,

I have dh67bl configured so it turns on after AC power supply is lost and renewed again. It works, but very strangely. After the AC supply is renewed, bios freezes on the first intel logo screen, without any text displayed. It stays like this for ~80s, and then it continues with boot sequence normally.  Also when this happens, bios seems to ignore all settings regarding the boot sequence speedup (do not turn on graphics, USB and boot just from HDD).

I observed this behavior only after AC power is lost, when I just restart the system or turn it off and on again without AC disconnected, it boots at normal speed. Also it does not matter if I have any peripheries connected (USB, ETH) and boot order settings does not influence it neither (I have enabled only boot from HDD as #1 option).

 

Some details about my board

 

model:  dh67bl

version: aag10189-213

bios version: blh6710h.86a.0160 (newest available)

 

I would be grateful for any tips what might be causing the problem. Also turning on any debug messages during boot sequence would definitely help - but I have not found any switch enabling this.

 

thank you

I am upgrading my PC and just installed a brand new DZ77RE-75K motherboard (version # G39010-302).

On power on, with 2 4MB memory sticks in DIMM 1 and DIMM 3, I get 3 beeps and error code 48 indicating a memory error.

If I insert only 1 4MB memory stick in DIMM 1, I get 3 beeps and error code 48 indicating a memory error.

If I insert only 1 4MB memory stick in DIMM 3, I resolve the problem and don't get error code 48.

 

Please help.  does the above mean I have a bad motherboard?

 

Thanks.

DX79TO loading EFI partition even before One-Time Boot Menu/BIOS Setup

$

0

Hello,

 

I'm having problems, whenever I have a GPT drive connected to any port. The BIOS seems to try to boot up the EFI partition (which right now should be a clean FAT32 partition) before loading Setup, if I press F2 (or even if I toggle the Back 2 BIOS button), but after showing all the standard POST information (VGA BIOS, POST Splash Screen - with the hotkeys BEING shown, RAID BIOS), also overriding any options I may have set for boot order, and giving me a pretty ugly "A bootable device has not been detected" prompt.

 

The only way I've managed to get to Setup or to a Boot Menu was by unplugging the GPT drive from the board, which renders me uncapable of doing any actual maintenance on the actual boot loader problem, even if I could boot Ubuntu from a LiveCD/USB or Windows Recovery Environment.

 

I had been running this system without a problem ever since I had assembled it, around one year ago. I have my drive setup as follows:

 

256GB SSD on Port 0

1TB SATA2 on Port 1

1TB SATA2 on Port 2 (in RAID 0 with the previous one)

1.5TB SATA3 on Port 3

DVD-RAM on Port 4

nothing on Port 5

 

After a long time running fine on only Windows in UEFI, I decided to install Ubuntu with it on the SSD. After many unsuccessful attempts to boot back to Windows (I was able to boot up Ubuntu), I tried to mess with the EFI files manually, as it seemed like GRUB had changed some of Windows' files there. All I did was append ".grb" to GRUB's "bootx64.efi" and rename "bkpbootx64.efi" under /EFI/Boot and /EFI/Microsoft, in order to see if I could restore Windows' original bootloader, in place of GRUB, and if this way it could boot back up, and then I couldn't even get to the BIOS setup before Windows Boot Loader shows up (and this still has the same problem as before). At this moment, if I tried "Startup Recovery", it showed up a "Windows is loading files..." progress bar, and then went back to the same boot loader screen. If I tried "Startup Windows Normally", it showed "Starting Windows" for a brief moment, then showed the same "Windows is loading files..." progress and finally, left me back at whatever screen I was BEFORE the Windows Boot Loader - if I came from GRUB, it would take me to GRUB again - I could repeat the process indefinitely without rebooting; strangely, if I came straight from the One-Time Boot Menu, it would also take me back to it, but this time without any Optical Drives listed.

 

After only getting success on reaching BIOS Setup by unplugging the SSD itself, I've took it out, reformatted the EFI partition, and now all I get is the doomed "A bootable device has not been detected", even if I have a bootable USB device, or a bootable CD - which are both set to boot before the Hard Drives.

 

The SSD is the only GPT drive, all the other ones I've maintained as MBR drives.

 

The system specs are:

 

Intel DX79TO Mainboard

Intel Core i7 3930K

Markvision 4GB DDR3-1600 in Quad Channel (16GB total)

NVIDIA GeForce GTX295 (on first PCI-E slot)

Corsair 750W PSU

 

Has anyone got any idea on what I could try?

 

Thanks in advance...

Drawbacks of RAID versus AHCI

$
0

Hi.

 

Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H / F14

 

On that mobo, the Intel chipset is in charge of 2 SATA3 and 4 SATA2 ports.

 

I use 2 of the SATA2 ports for RAID and have RAID selected for the Intel chipset in UEFI.

On port 0, I use a Samsung SSD 840.

 

Now ... the Samsung software Magician reports that AHCI is disabled for the SATA, which is correct.

 

But as far as I know, RAID includes all benefits of AHCI.

Is that correct?

 

These would be NCQ, TRIM, ... ?

 

Thanks,

DQ67SW: Adaptec RAID 6805 hangs on post screen

$

I newly installed Adaptec RAID 6805 controller into motherboard Intel DQ67SW (slot PCIe x16). Unfortunately RAID controller hangs during its post screen. I even cannot get in to RAID BIOS. Then I turned off all devices in motherboard BIOS (FireWire, LAN, Serial port, Audio and so on) but that doesn't help at all. Motherboard has the latest BIOS version (0053) as well as RAID controller have the latest version 5.2.0 Build 18301.

 

So I moved the RAID controller into other computer with much older motherboard (different brand) and the RAID controller worked just fine. But that doesn't solve my problem.

 

What do I have to do?

DZ87KL-75K and VT-d

I have cpu i7-4770 (non K) with vt-d support. I would like buy motherboard DZ87KL-75K but I don't know if it supports vt-d. Intel technical documentation says: chipset Z87 vt-d not supported :-( DZ87KL-75K support vt-d or not? Is there some board with vt-d support (Intel or other with 8x SATA)?


MoBo dp43tf, 2TB WD-HD not detected in cold start

$

I recently stepped into a problem with my HTPC wich reduces to the above mentioned configuration: the HDD is pefectly recognized by the BIOS SATA driver ver 1.10.05 of the latest BIOS (NBG4310H.86A.0107.EB.EXE) when warm-booting, but is not -at least not completely- detected when cold booting. If I stop the Bios with "Pause" for a second early enough (before device detection: the SATA driver displaying dots ...) the drive is also recognized.

 

I checked and changed the power supply line, I tried all the HDD PreDelays (which seemed to have no influence at all - no IDE devices?), I switched all meaningful alternatives (esp. hiding/displaying extension board text) in the BIOS, and googled, all to no avail.

 

There is just one detail: the SATA driver always displays "06 Ports, 01 Devices" and either the HDD-code or "No device", the BIOS on the contrary shows either also the HDD code or -thats the hint for an existing and only partially recognized drive- a <totally blank entry> where the HDD code usually is, whereas for all other ports "No device " is shown.

 

Usually the HTPC is just suspended but in the rare case of deep trouble it has to be powered off (no reset button) and so the problem came up. Are there any suggestions, please?

 

Thank you in advance!

Why do my HDDs keep dying?

$
0
0

I have issues with my HDDs dying constantly.  It started out with 3 Seagate drives.  Within a year all 3 died.  I did an RMA on each one twice, the HDDs lasted months each.

 

I finally upgrade my power supply, get the new Intel DX58SO board (had a 680i Nvidia board before) new processor, new ram, new cables.

 

So I install Windows 7 on a WD hdd.  Shut down, unplug it, plug in a 1gb Hitachi Hdd, install XP on it.  Power down again, plug both HDDs in and select which HDD to boot from, depending on what I'm doing.

 

This works great for 2-3 months, but then suddenly my PC won't boot to either drive.  The windows loading screen will freeze up, until I unplug the faulty HDD.  Then the other will boot just fine. 

 

So being sick of this, I go out on Saturday and get the Intel X-25m SSD 80gb drive.  Install windows 7 to it like described above, no problem!  very quick hdd.  Did all the win updates, and then went back to my XP drive

 

Today, the SSD kept pausing and locking up, and when I boot the exact same symptoms.  Neither XP nor Windows 7 will load with the SSD plugged in now.

 

What is causing hdd's to die on me like this?  I have a Gigabyte Aurora case which is the only component which is the same.  Speedfan reports temperatures to be just fine, even on load?

 

I don't do anything unusual I wouldn't think.  My friends torrent a ton, and constantly move data around more often than I do, and their drives are years and years old.

Unreliable SATA disk detection with DH87RL motherboard?

$
0
0

I find that I an unable to boot from certain hard drives about 60% of the time with this motherboard.  I have the latest BIOS update and am not seeing a pattern with the drives that work or do not.  One drive is a 1TB physical disk, the other is a 25GB SSD and both are equally unreliable.

 

At boot I either get a message that no boot devices are detected or else everything works fine.

 

If I boot from another drive that works consistently, and have another that does not in another SATA port, I often do not have that other drive visible to my OS (Linux) or to the BIOS for that matter.

 

How can I narrow down the issue to get this fixed?

 

Thanks,

DZ77BH-55K 0097 bios problem

Hi.

 

I flashed the BIOS using F7 on my DZ77BH-55K from 0085 to  0097 version and it would not go past post after it was done.

After running the update, the PC said "successful" and shut down and then didn't come back on. Just black screen.

I tried to full recovery method with the BIO file on the root of a USB stick, plugged into a USB 2 port, with the jumper removed then powering up, but no results

CPU: i5 3330

RAM: HMT351U6CFR8C-PBN0

Post Code 15 on MoBo display

 

The Board Status LEDs were:

A, Hard Drive Activity = off

B, CPU Hot = on

C, VR Hot = off

D, Watch Dog Fire / Back to BIOS = off

E, CPU Initilization = off

F, Memory Initilization = off

G, Video Initilization = off

H, USB Initilization = off

I, Hard Drive Initilization = off

J, Option ROM Initilization = off

K, Operating System Start = off

 

Any suggestions welcome.

New DZ87KLT-75K gives red "Power Supervisor LED" when booting and shutting down

$

My new DZ87KLT-75K has difficulty turning on. When my machine is off the red "Power Supervisor LED" is lit constantly. When I turn on my machine, I get prompted with a message telling me that the Intel Power Supervisor has detected a "Catastrophic Power Event." If I press a key at this message, the Power Supervisor LED turns off and the machine usually proceeds to POST and boot to Windows 7. Sometimes instead of booting I instead get the red Power Supervisor LED combined with the memory error beep code (three beeps, repeat). When this happens the machine turns itself off automatically. Once booted to Windows the machine seems stable with good thermals and game performance. The power supervisor LED stays off when Windows is running.

 

My first thought was the power supply. I have tried two Corsair AX860i PSUs so far. I RMAed the first one because I figured if the power supervisor LED is lit then it must be a problem with the PSU.  Today I got another of the same exact model, but the above symptoms persist. Corsair's website insists that this model is compatible with Haswell.

 

A separate but possibly related problem is that I seem unable to update the BIOS on the motherboard. I tried twice. Both times the machine shut itself off and went into BIOS recovery mode. I suspect this power problem is to blame.

 

Here are my full specs:

 

Core i7-4770K

DZ87KLT-75K

32 GB (8GB per DIMM) of Dual Channel Corsair "CMY32GX3M4A2133C11"

Nvidia Geforce GTX 780

Samsung 256GB SSD

Western Digital 2TB HDD

Corsair AX860i PSU 860 Watts

 

Do you think it is safe to use this machine until I get a fix for this? Could using it damage the components?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My build is..  i7 920,  intel DX58SO Extreme, with G.Skill F3-10666CL7 RAM  3GB (3x1GB).

 

The issue is that when i put all three of the ram modules and boot.. it reboots after 3 to 4 seconds and theres no display, but when i put 2 modules it boots just fine without any problem.

 

I checked if my ram modules have any problem by booting on one ram module each.. and all my modules are good no problem in the ram.

 

I found out that the third ram slot (from the top) has the issue, if i put the third module in it and boot it reboots in few seconds without display.

 

My system has been running smoothly with 3 modules from past 3 to 4 years. I just upgraded My GPU a day back from Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4850 to Sapphire HD 7870, no issues there too coz i ran my system after upgarding for a whole day. I just did reassembling of all my components in my rig and did rewiring, problem started after that.

 

I tried for a lot of hours to fix it but its just not happening.. im running on 2 modules now.. plz help me with this.. i miss my 3rd ram module so much...

Has anybody been able to install Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise Server and have the dz77BH-55k built in ethernet port get the driver installed? (I beleive it is the the dz77BH-55k has the Intel(R) 82579V Gigabit Network device, but when I go to install that driver it says "no Intel (r) Adapters are present"

 

Is there a way to override to get the driver installed.

 

With the USB 3.0 driver, it says the computer is not meeting the minimum requirements.

 

 

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

DZ77GA-70K and 0066 bios version

$
0
0

Hi

I bought a DZ77GA-70K motherboard last month. General, my computer worked good with an integrated CPU i5-2500 video and without any overclocking.

My BIOS was the 0021 version. And I decided to upgrade it to the last BIOS (0066 version).

I made an upgrade by F7-way from USB-flash and I got the upgrade finish message 'successful'.

BUT, after restart my motherbord had bugs:

1*. I could not enter to the BIOS by F2 button, F7 and F10 buttons worked;

2*. the back-to-bios button and BIOS configuration jumper didn't work;

3*. the motherboard could not do an auto motheboard select to the integrated CPU i5-2500 video (black screen was on the hdmi output).

So, I decided do a BIOS rollback to another version. I inserted a PCI (not PCI-E) videocard in the motherboard and got a normal boot to my OS (without ability to enter BIOS!). I made BIOS update to 0063 version by 0063.EB.EXE-way from HDD. This BIOS version looks good: F2 button works, integrated CPU i5-2500 video works with auto motherboard select.

* - Tested with integrated CPU i5-2500 video and with external PCI (not PCI-E) videocard.

 

Is the BIOS version 0066 not good to use?

Is the BIOS version 0064 is stable and is it recommended to use?

Thank you in advance.

I'm sorry for my English.

How can I disable a Platform Administration Technology Password?

Hello folks,

 

Someone I know is given an old PC, based on a 946 chipset board and having a problem; there is no sound output. I'm known as the tech savvy guy in my circles, so they requested I have a look. Apparently, board is old, so there is no driver support for Win7, the machine is running currently. I want to downgrade to WinXP, and solve this problem. Thing is, a corporate feature, known as  Platform Administration Technology is enabled and there is a password, denying me to access to BIOS.

 

Long story short, how can I disable PAT so I can access to BIOS/Boot settings on a D946GZIS desktop motherboard?

 

Any help is really appreciated, I really don't want to dissappoint this guy. : )
