K8D Master-F 9131 problem with BIOS 1.2 and Raidcore BC4852

The board does not start the Raidcore BIOS with motherboard 9131 BIOS 1.2 installed. It works OK wih BIOS 1.1.
Raidcore 4852 FW is V130. (tested V110 = same problem)
Bios found here:
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/download/dld/spt_dld_detail.php?UID=441&kind=3
Both 1.1 and 1.2 BIOS was unable to recognise my Opteron 242 CPU steppings which indicate they are both quite old. Maybe MSI could fix these problems and include the newer CPU steppings like the ones for 250 CPUs. Bios 1.2 is dated nov. 28th 03 which is a year old. BUHU.
I am building a LARGE storage server based on this motherboard. Several others to come (planning on using the MSI K8D Master 3 -133 9161), but if MSI does not upgrade the BIOS for their high end boards I will start looking for another supplier real fast.

I'll stick with the V1.10, but I'd fell better if MSI showed me they actively update their systems by releasing updated BIOS files from time to time.
I can't sell a 15000$ storage system that doesn't recognise the CPUs installed. The customer would laugh and tell me to come back with a supported system.
Isn't this a VERY valid reason for wanting updates? Even if it only is an updated CPU list?
The only reason I tried this MSI board is that it was the only one available with my retailer at the time I bought it with 3 PCI-X 100Mhz slots. Maybe I should go with a Tyan Thunder next time. Tyan at least show some activity.

Error message on install no printer port could be assigned

I have installed Acrobat 7.0 professional on my new windows 7.0 laptop. On install an error msg says "No rinter port could be assigned." I have tried a couple times and no luck. Any way to assign a pdf printer port manually?
thanks

To my knowledge, no one has gotten AA 7 to work on Win 7. A few have succeeded with AA8. AA9 is the minimum certified to work on Win 7. You will likely have to upgrade for Win 7.

How Do I Redirect LPT1 Printer Port to 'LOCAL Printer' in Windows 7

I have previously redirected LPT1 Port to a 'Network Printer' as well as 'Print Server' with NO PROBLEMS.
However, I have NOT been able to redirect LPT1 Port to a 'LOCAL' PRINTER. I have already set up:
- new HP Laser Printer (tested, no problem printing in Windows)
- the printer is SHARED, shared name is "HPLaser" (tested by viewing Shared Printer Name and Computer Name in DOS)
- bat file as --> Net
use Lpt1 \\DkTop1\HPLaser /persistent:yes
(I checked to ensure the 'Computer
Name' and the 'Shared
Printer Name' are correct. Tested by running bat command, no
error message)
When printing in DOS and viewing "What's Printing" from Printer Icon,
- the DOS print job appears immediately as "spooling",
- then "printing" and "USB001" Port.
So, it appears to be printing from the DOS application, also
note NO ERRORS from DOS Program or Windows but it does NOT print.
The only difference between the 'Local Printer' setup and
the 'Print Server Printer' setup is,
the 'PRINT SERVER'
goes to an "IP Address w/Standard TCP/IP Port"
and the 'LOCAL PRINTER'
goes to "USB001 Virtual Printer for . . .".
IS THERE A PROBLEM in
SETTING UP THE 'LOCAL PRINTER'
with 'USB001 VIRTUAL PRINTER' Port???
If so, how do I resolve? If not, please note what is the problem(s) and resolution(s). Thanks.

Hi,
you install the new printer, which port you choose to use? What do you mean by saying "'USB001 VIRTUAL PRINTER' Port"
here?
As the printer is configured locally, there is no need to redirect the port to it.

If possible please take a try to delete the printers holding the Lpt1 port, then reconfigure the local printer following the instructions provided above.
Hope this may help

TCP/IP Printer ports - HELP PLEASE

I have a large inkjet printer that I print my graphic design to... for years it has been set up and printing just fine through an Actiontec M1424-WR-rev.D router. No setting were ever changed in the router, it just worked great right out of the box (the Verizon guys installed it). I had a small router with the cable company, but when I got the new router from Verozon the install guy said i didn't need it any more, and moved the ethernet plugs over to the new router. Everything worked fine for years... until the wireless functions started to fail (I don't use the wireless for the office, just the family), so, Verizon told me I had to replace it with a new M1242WR - rev. I router. I transfered all the cables over the the new router in exactly the same positions the were in on the old router. Now my printing software (RIP software) can't see the printer when it's routed through the FiOS router, but If I move the ethernet cable from the router and plug it into the back of my computer, which disconnects my computer from the network and gives me a dedicated ethernet connection to the printer... everything works fine. It's just when I try and run it through the router that my computer and printer can't talk to each other.
My RIP software that drives the printer demands a STATIC IP address set up in a TCP/IP printing port, and the printer is set up with the corresponding static IP address (this is unavoidable). Images of the setup screens below...
The RIP software setup is here... very simple:
Now, on the actual printer, the IP address matches (192.168.0.110), the subnet masks are 255.255.255.0, and the default gateway is set at 192-168.0.1.
This is all the info I have, and all I know is that it worked fine with no setup on the old router, and does NOT work on the new router... it used to be plug-n-play, now it's plug-n-stop.
Again, when the ethernet cable run directly from the computer it drives the printer just fine, connected to the router first and it failes completely.... HELP!!!!!!!!!!
Like I said... this has worked great for years, I haven't changed a thing on the printer or computer... the only change is the new router... I'm out of production until I figure this out (
Cabe...

The revision I router out of the box uses the following default IP addresses
192.168.1.x IP Address
255.255.255.0 Subnet
192.168.1.1 Default gateway
I notice you aren't using that IP Address scheme at all in the screen shots. Did you change the Verizon router internal settings to use the 0.1 ip scheme?

Acrobat 7.0 Printer port problem with windows 7.0?

I installed adbobe acrobat 7.0 standard on my new computer (windows 7.0), and I get this message: "warning 20225 adobe 7.0 ws unanle to setup adobe printer port." Does acrobat 7.0 work with windows 7.0?

If you are able to open Acrobat and Distiller, then you may be able to create a work-around. If the Adobe PDF printer was created, but not the port, then change the port to a "print-to-file" setting. Then open Distiller and setup a watched folder that you would print the file to. When you print the file, you may have to set the file extension to PS rather than the default PRN. The file would be a PS file and the extension is only to help the watched folder setup. Then try to print to the Adobe PDF printer and see if the watched folder will do the job. I am not sure and have not tried it on Win7 (I have AA9) but it is an option to try. If it does not work, then it is time to upgrade -- may be a good idea anyway.

Riser Card for K8D Master-FT (Rackmount)

There are extra cables there to supply power, You will need to break out a solder kit and hook them up to a molex connector (which is a fairly easy to do).

MSI K8D Master PCI-X Question

Hi,
I was just wandering if anyone could tell me if the MSI K8D Master is compatible with any PCI-X 16 video cards.
Any information would be appreciated.

This is a server board, and server typically have no use for AGP or other fancy videostuff.
You are confusing PCI-E with the PCI-X that the board has.
PCI-X is an extended PCI slot that can do 64bit and 100MHz instead of the normal PCI being 32 Bit and max 66MHz.
This lifts the PCI speed from max 256MB/s to 1.2GB/s.
Raid controllers and very-fast network controller bennefit a lot from this.
Ergo, the K8D boards are for server use only.
If you want a big graphical workstation with 2 Opterons, it's the K8T Master board that you are looking for.
But it also doesn't have PCI-E as of yet.

K8D Master

I am searching like crazy, but I can't seem to find any info on when the K8D Master (MSI-9131) (http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/server/svr/pro_svr_detail.php?UID=441&MODEL=MS-9131) motherboard will be for sale in Europe. ;( Can anyone tell me, or point me to this information? Any help is much appreciated!!

Hi again!
I've looked into the power supply of the other server we built with the same specs. and as far as i can see it does not have more than 18A*. It might just be that the motherboard is damaged, so we will return it now to the re-seller.

K8D Master-FT PCI / Riser Card Help

Ok, I have just taking my first venture into the true server class motherboard. We chose the K8D Master-FT w/ a pair of opteron 240's. I have ran into a few issues that I just can't seem to find any answers on.
1. We used a third-party case which didn't come with a riser card. Do I need a PCI-X riser card or can I still use a 32bit riser. Also once I have the correct riser card can I still use 32bit PCI devices on the riser?
2. Next if I only want to use one slot can I just use the PCI-X slot on the motherboard without a riser? If so can I use a 32bit PCI card?
Thanks a bunch in advance.

Ok. Here are the details. We get the system board in and we grab a rack case with the correct form factor. Problem is the case didn't come with a riser card. None the less we where under the same impression that we could stick a PCI or PCI-X card in the slot. We only have a single card (RAID controller) which we intend to use. When we insert the PCI (32-bit) raid card in the PCI-X slot the system won't boot. We even tried inserting the card every which way we could in the slot thinking maybe we had inserted it wrong. Still no luck. Should our raid controller be 64 bit? Also we did have some riser cards that came with some ATX form factor rack cases, but when inserted into the PCI-X slot, the card slots face oddly up the motherboard towards the I/O panel. Thanks.

K8D master ft onboard video problem

Hi, I have the k8d master ft and when I install a pci vid card the onboard video is disabled. Does anyone know how or even if it is possible to run both? I could not find anything in bios but maybe I missed it.
thanks.

Sorry, you can't....this happens on all boards that I have seen.

K8D Master 3-133 FA4R: deactivate VGA

Hi,
is it possible to deactivate the onboard-VGA on a K8D Master 3-133 FA4R?
I've a PCI-VGA Card wich works like an IP-Extender so i can view&control the Computer over the Internet.
Best Regards, Erwin Preuner

Well it does say Offboard PCI/ISA IDE device and then the manual talks about a graphics card should work correctly????
Could be a typo on the BIOS or in the manual (I hope the first), but that's the closest as I get to an option.
However, with most MSI boards, adding VGA card to a system with onboard VGA, will take the added over the onboard.
But I'm guessing now.

Multiprocessor PC ACPI vs MPS, K8D Master

I got a K8D Master with 2 AMD opterons....
I installed windows 2k pro on the pc. I was told I need to turn multiprocessor support on in device manager.. I went in to it and see that ACPI Multiprocessor PC is the driver installed.
Should I leave that (is it supporting both CPU's?) or shoould i change it to MPS Multiprocessor PC ??

ACPI Multiprocessor PC sounds right to me
ACPI Uniprocessor PC is the right way in a single set up
any thing else is a lesser set up im sure its similar

Does K8D Master-FT support Dual core Opteron?

Hi,
Does K8D Master-FT support dual core Opteron? I saw the latest BIOS was released at 2003/12/11 and said to support for all series of AMD Opteron(up to 248, SC, 2.2GHz/1M).
Thx, Xuekun

Sorry I only looked after his question.
The entire K8D-Master3 series has support for it: >>Link<<

K8D-Master and Highpoint SATA controllers

Has anyone been able to get a K8D-Master to boot from a Highpoint SATA controller?
I've tried 2 cards - the 1520 and the 1542 - both without much success.
Both cards are recognised in OS setup, but when it comes to boot, I just get the BIOS message saying "Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key" (interesting use of capitals!). This happens regardless of whether I've got the disks RAIDed or not.
The 1520 is all fine in the K8D-Master's BIOS boot section, but when you try to enter setup with a 1542 plugged it, it puts "WAIT" in the middle of the screen and freezes. Neither card it seems is capable of actually booting the machine - however both cards work perfectly in other boxes.
A Silicon Image (sil3112) controller works fine, however there is no support for its RAID functionality in FreeBSD and I'd rather not send this box packing without mirrored disks.
Any help in the matter would be greatly appreciated.

ok never heard of it before
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/server/svr/pro_svr_detail.php?UID=441
are you setting scsi second in boot order to cdrom
have you defined the array in the raid cards bios
have you hit f6 as xp install starts and feed in raid drivers
other than that it sounds like a bios issue your best emailing msi about
we dont get that many server board users in here
