XraySRL Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Why do these BIOS updates not contain some sort of readme indicating why we should install them? I am looking forward to Re-Size BAR support. Does this BIOS update include this support? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this BIOS update include this support? Thanks! I'm not sure about that. I've been focused on the USB situation only, but I don't know if this'll help indicate if it has been fixed or not.

Koopa777 Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 You can further confirm RBAR support by downloading HWInfo and looking for the microcode version, AGESA ComboAM4PIV2. 1.2.0.0 and above have RBAR support. I must say it’s good to see Corsair doing the right thing, although it was incredibly frustrating to see the complete and total lack of commitment leading up to it. While I don’t regret ripping the board out and replacing it with something better, I do wish there was a public acknowledgment of the issue, which probably would have caused me to keep the board that was in there. Either way, nice to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NPCNL Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Yeah fixes seem to happen like once in a blue moon and I do agree that they should keep everyone well informed about this stuff so customers won't have to be forced into buying a different PC part, returning the PC too soon and/or sending a disappointed response.

Strider1983 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Just wanted to thank Corsair and their employees for getting this bios update out. Just now updated and the process went smoothly following the instructions posted above by NPCNL(thank you). Had another usb disconnect yesterday before installing it and that was the last straw. Nervous about updating bios but no problems. Will let everyone know if my issues are fixed or not after trying it out for about a week at least. Thank again Corsair and happy gaming fellow posters!

Dovaa77 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Installed the latest Bios today, went smoothly, first time updating a BIOS but ive built two PC's before so i was sweating it out during the update. With all that said, is the resizable BAR or w/e its called turned on by default? Thanks for making the update available Corsair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csun22 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 (edited) Got my a7200 yesterday (9/9/21), installed a couple games, updated windows and various drivers and my computer would randomly disconnect and try to reconnect the USB devices I have plugged in when playing games: keyboard, mouse and headset. Also found out it would disconnect/disable my wifi adapter. I tried going to the power management tabs on the USB root hubs and network adapter to uncheck the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". The mouse and keyboard seem to stay connected now, but I'm still having issues with the headset and wifi. I tried to update the BIOS only to find that I already have the most up to date version (E7C56AZ1.ACC is the filename). I already uninstalled a lot of the bloatware and I'm tempted do uninstall ICUE even though I already disabled it. Any further suggestions would be much appreciated. I love the build quality of the PC, but I'm already REALLY disappointed with the issues I'm already having. I would have to have to return it. PS: I just submitted a support ticket for the issues as well Edited September 11, 2021 by csun22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

regpaq Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I just got the vengeance a7200 pre built. everything seems to be working great but when trying to launch warzone from battle net, it crashes the whole pc. no error code or bsod. I had read from several people on reddit that have the same CPU and MOBO to this prebuilt that updating bios to the latest version fixed the issue exactly as I described I'm having. I have the latest bios version available from corsair since we can’t update bios from MSI directly. MSI bios update page shows Corsair is 3 updates behind, the latest improving Windows 11 compatibility. Since this PC shipped with Windows 11 pre-installed, I'm relatively confident this is the issue. We are opining a ticket with corsair support, but open to trying an fixes suggested here as well. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried downloading the latest BIOS (build 03/11/22 per download website) and my motherboard said I was already on the latest version (build date 04/2021). Tried getting an update file from MSI like you said, and no dice. Did Corsair support ever get back to you with a solution? Wonder if I can downgrade to Windows 10 to get around the issue.

Yo I'm also having these issues but with Elden Ring, really frustrating that we can't play some new games on our prebuilt due to these incompatibility issues with no way to fix it because of corsair locking us to their bios without keeping it up to date!

ggabir2 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 to update bios to fix those crashes go to the bios then don't click on m-flash on the bios instead on your keyboard press Ctrl + Alt + T then select enter to go into M-Flash Mode. After you're on the page make sure you connected the usb Flash drive with the latest bios from Corsair website combatable with your device or model you have. select the file in M-Flash mode then it'll update your bios. Games should work after that. Also, you make sure you extract the file then move it into your usb file to update the bios properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggabir2 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 How’s the performance when running games? I think the performance is absolutely terrible because after I updated the bios and did my drivers I’m still getting packet loss with the games I’m playing. I’m looking into getting a new unlocked motherboard from MSI to have the latest drivers and updates so the system can run smoothly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks So far after updating my bios it's been pretty solid, a bunch of multiple hour play sessions with no concerning things happening. If something bad happens again i'll report on it, but updating the bios makes it seem to act normal. This isn't a problem specific to this PC though, a lot of people seem to have had this issue with the game with rtx 3000 series cards and the solution for most was an update to the bios, you can look up "elden ring restarts pc" to see a lot of reddit threads and stuff about the issue and the eventual finding of solutions. Aside from this issue which now seems to be solved it's a really good PC, runs cool and quiet and the case is good. Do plenty of research to decide if it's the right one for you though, as always.

Ok that's good to hear. Ok im definitely set on this pc and I beleive it's the best pre built under $2k ive found and has exact parts im looking for and the right value. I also love the case and clean setup and liquid cooler. Even th psu isnt skimped on and I like the attention to detail. Also iQue looks real cool. Only thing bothering me about this pc is locked bios which seems to be giving alot of people grief from my research but im not super worried about it cuz I dont plan on tinkering with much. Just want my ram to run 3200 as advertised and control of fan profiles and power performance settings. I dont care for overclocking etc. But I just love everything about this pc overall so I can live with that 1 thing. Thanks for your help. Guess im gonna do a bios update first thing I do when I get it. Im gonna have to look up a tutorial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emgula96 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) Hi all, I'm trying to update my bios to resolve the usb issues but when I go into the m flash and select the file to update I get "For providing better BIOS functionality and quality, the system will not allow to restore BIOS with older version". I don't understand why I am getting this issue even though I'm trying to update to a newer version. Very frustrated with how difficult this issue has been to resolve. Any links to the most current bios files? I went to the order history page selected my model and went to bios update and downloaded the file from there Have: E7C56AZ1.c9 installed E7C56AZ1.ACE is the version I want to install Edited November 28, 2022 by emgula96 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
