MSI Special Features

Live BIOS™/Live Driver™

The Live BIOS™/Live Driver™ is a tool used to detect and update your BIOS/drivers online so that you don’t need to search for the correct BIOS/driver version throughout the Web site. To use the function, you need to install the “MSI Live Update 2” application. After installation, the “MSI Live Update 2” icon (as shown on the right) will appear on the screen.

Double click the “MSI Live Update 2” icon, and the follow- ing screen will appear:

Five buttons are placed on the leftmost pane of the screen. Click the desired button to start the update process.

zLive BIOS – Updates the BIOS online.

zLive Driver – Updates the drivers online.

zLive VGA BIOS – Updates the VGA BIOS online.

zLive VGA Driver – Updates the VGA driver online.

zLive Utility – Updates the utilities online.

If the product you purchased does not support any of the functions listed above, a “sorry” message is displayed. For more information on the update instructions, insert the companion CD and refer to the “Live Update Guide” under the “Manual” Tab.
