I use the MSI HQ Forum Flash Utility at this time and voted acordingly.
M-Flash thingy sounds promissing for the future MSI mobos too.

I've only done it once nearly 2 yrs ago and at the time had to resort to Live Update. In the future if needed I obviously would use USB tool.

Of course, I only ever flash my BIOS when I REALLY need to (I don't flash for fun!), but whenever I do now, its with our own USB flash tool.  |

Mike, I may be missing the hold thing here, but I do not see any spot to vote, Poll Question: Which way you use when need to update your BIOS? MSI Live Update - 3 (14.3%) MSI M-Flash - 0 (0%) MSIHQ Forum USB Flasher - 14 (66.7%) I do it manually - 4 (19%) Other - 0 (0%) This is what shows up but nothing to click to cast vote???  |

Then you or someone else has voted already on your account. Are you always logged--does someone else have access to your machine? I don't think it's the situation where if you posted and saved that it would exclude a vote if you haven't voted.
edit: I think I know why. You have to have 10 posts counted in the forum before you can use/see certain features. Some forums, the posts are not counted, such as Anything in the Sun.

I would like to say that I am very impressed by the Forum USB Flash tool. It is extremely easy to use after reading the documentation. I have always been hesitant to use flashing methods like Windows-based tools or floppys.

I have a 64 bit system w/o a floppy drive. I was unable to find any way to update the bios until I found on the MSI Support website how to create a bootable Flash drive (I have an 8GB Patriot flash drive). This worked like a miracle and I have used this way twice! Here is the link: http://www.msicomputer.com/support/sup_tshoot.asp(at the bottom on the page) Otherwise, I could not find any other way even searching on Google!  |

My other computer that I had, I had to update the bios to fix an issue with Gimp 2.0 and an issue with HT processor chipsets, I flashed mine manually. Its not difficult, and with a duel bios, if something goes wrong, there is a backup bios that I can can load and flash to the main bios. The computer had live update, the info I got was on how to do a manual update though, but its not that hard. Knowing how to do manual stuff and command line stuff, even with all the GUI stuff out there, is a good thing to know.

Me thinks you're trying to get MSI to support the flashing tool? And are using this thread as proof of the tool being more-used than MSI's own flashing utilities?

MSIHQ USB flashing tool. It did not recognize my k9a2 platinum, so i could not use the "sure hands" option, I used the first option on the tool. Worked fine to load bios v 1.7
This was my first time updating bios so I really can't comment on it compared to other methods.Seemed like the way to go since I don't have a floppy installed. I almost did decide to do a floppy because some forum posters had stated that doing it from a floppy was the most reliable way to go,and i was kind of nervous about it failing. Live update does'nt work for me.

I used the forum flasher and worked great . To bad MSI has not jumped on the same . They built this board and still can't get the BIOS reflash to work correctly Just my 2 cents worth. |

Hello,
New to the forums. I came accross this poll just as I was about to make a thread regarding OC'ing an e7200 on an MSI P43 Neo.
I'm sure that I'll have to flash my BIOS with a more recent version. So might I ask what the MSIHQ Forum USB Flasher is please?
Thank you
DrGonzo.

I flash using a bootable USB stick with WIN 78 on it. This is essentially the forum flasher. I figured this out as the forum flasher was being developed so never got around to using the forum flasher.
With my bootable USB stick I can also run stand alone DOS programs - such at Memtest 86+ and the like - so it serves multiple purposes.

I've used the MSI Live Updater once (it worked flawlessly, btw)
I typically use a CD-Rom DOS boot disk.
I do not have a USB thumb drive to use the flash utility with. Had I known this was going to be I woulda kept my old usb stick ipod....

I flash using the forum flashing tool, so far i find it to be the easiler flashing tool and it is also can very easily flash back to the old bios.

I've always flashed according to the MSI Manual. 50+ Mobos over the years, 100% success Rate. I will be turning to the forum flasher though. Flashed a GA Board via online method, Flash successful, lost OS!
