Hi, after update of new BIOS is mobo dead and on display is CPU Init, CPU is great and in another boards works perfectly ...
Is there some solution of problem, i tested everything ... remove battery, Clear CMOS, unassembly whole system ... but no success. Is mobo ready to RMA?
Im afraid its ready for RMA, something must have went wrong when flashing Bios.
mobo was pretty unstable out of the box, i received new bios from MSI and because strange behaviour i updated it, now is mobo dead, damn MSI crap ...
This board not the one can load a 2nd bios for boot from usb slot ?
Any luck with this OBR?
nothing, mobo stuck at CPU Init on display ...
It happens. Can you hotflash with another board that uses a similar chip? I know alot of the newer ES boards use the super tiny bios chips now.
Just googled this problem and came here, so thought I'd drop in my 2p.
I've killed 2 MSI X58 Eclipses by this method now - first on .123 BIOS and second on .125 BIOS using M-Flash. Apparently MSI has problems with its M-Flash and recommend not to use it for the time being.
I can't even hot flash because it's soldered to the board :(
Same here! Flashed official BIOS V1.1 with M-Flash, now Mobo is dead.
I flashed my board with mflash and it worked. Just be careful u have it pointed at the file when u flash and not the folder. I made 2 copies just in case, one in the root and one outside. I hope I dont kill mine :down: but anywho just thought Id chime in since I did get it 2 work.
oh great... I just got this board... oye! well, I was hoping for no headaches but that might not be the case... well, maybe I should just sell it and go asus.. but I like the layout on this one so much better.
sinister - how is your board with the 1.1 bios?
The bios seems more stable, I have the platinum board not as good as the eclipse. I would flash with a floppy to 1.1 then try mflash on next bios release, the google comes up with that advice on msi forums. Using mflash did make me nervous the first time just flash and dont turn off the computer. -----Flash then reboot in to windows then reboot again go into bios load optimized defaults boot into windows, shut down computer, unplug cord, press cmos button reset on back of computer, then overclock.:up: Worked for me. Oh ya my usb stick is also formatted in fat32 not fat and its a Pny brand.
ok, cool.. well, I guess I will stick with this one then... so flash to 1.1 with a floppy this time. will do! :) thanks for the info.. I am getting G.Skill 1600 mems.

Can u explain what a TL-399 debug card do? and where to get it.
I also have a dead mobo, after flashing with M-flash.
Are there already any solutions for reviving a dead mobo?
MSI Eclipse X58
OCZ gold DDR3-1600
Core i7 920
I contact MSI Support Team in Son(Netherlands) and they gonna reprogramm the bios with the latest version 136, no cost!
