K8N Neo2 and X2 4800+ HT frequency?

Recently upgraded to the X2 4800+ processor, everyhting works fine. However, I saw somewhere that the HT bus on this guy is 2000 MHz, but the bios only has a 5X multiplier for the HT bus (ie 1000 MHz). Is this a limitation of the nforce 3 chipset or is something out of wack?

2000Mhz is double data rate of 1000Mhz.
Same thing.

  • MSI K8N Neo2 and Creative?

    Anyone know of a problem between MSI K8N Neo2 board and
    Creative soundblaster audigy 2 card?
    My problem started as soon as i plugged in my soundblaster audigy 2 card,
    as a result i started to get randomly "Machine Check Exception" problems.
    Often when i play games where the sounds are continually.
    I've tried creatives support, but i can't find any solution.
    The onboard sound works fine, but i prefer the audigy card, as long as it don't
    restart my computer.
    Anyone have any idea what it may be?

    I am using an Audigy 2 with latest drivers and no probs whatsoever so it may not be a motherboard/soundcard problem

  • MSI K8N Neo2 and USB 2.0

    Does this MB have USB 2.0? When I plug in my iPod it says that the device could run faster if I plugged it into a USB 2.0 port. How do I fix this? Thanks

    Gadgets,
    Before you update your BIOS please do following:
    1- Insure that you do not have older legacy USB peripherals (V 1.X) plugged in next to your Ipod 2.0 USB connection.  Pluging in a USB 1.x connector next to a USB 2.0 connector can drag all transfers to the lowest USB 1.x transfer rate.
    2- Do not guess at your USB transfwer rate. Download Sandra Lite 2005 (SR3) from Sisoftware here (it's free): http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=177
    once you done so install it and use the File System Benchmark program to find out exactly what your Ipod USB connection is achieving in MB/s. A USB 2.0 connection should give you a 32 or greater MB/s transfer rate.
    3- Don't MESS with your BIOS UNTIL YOU are absolutely sure of the procedures to follow.  Here is some reference links:

  • Weird multipel error with K8N Neo2 and XMS Pro 3200LL

    Hi everyone, i recently got a winchester 3200 running on my K8N Neo2 Platinum 54G board and i discovered a very weird thing and im not the only one having this problem either with this mobo/cpu. Its a bit hard to explain but i´ll giv it a try.
    I can start with my current spec...
    MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum 54G
    AMD A64 3200+ Winchester
    Corsair TwinX 1024 XMS Pro 3200LL
    2x Maxtor diamondmax s-ata 80BG
    Gainward 2400GT GS (6800GT)
    Coolermaster Hyper 6 cpu cooler
    Tagan 480w psu (28A on 12V)
    Then i can continue with saying that this problem that occurs with my corsair memorys dose not happend with Adata vitesta 566 memorys.
    I figure your getting curious by now
    Well heres the deal. In normal frequencys, multipliers and dividers this setup runs just fine, but when i try to oc it past 220Mhz FSB only one multiplier will work, regardless of HTT multiplier or any other bios setting. The only cpu multipel that it will boot with in 133 divider is X5 over 220Mhz FSB, with the 166 divider the only cpu multipel that works then is x6, and only the x4 cpu multipel works in 200 divider. Keep in mind that this didnt happend with adata vitesta sticks, it ran fine with every multipel/divider config...
    Oddly enough it works fine in 100 divider on the memorys, every cpu multipel works then past 220Mhz FSB. So far i have gotten my winnie stable at 2,6GHz in standard vcore (with adata vitesta in 200 divider or with corsair running in 100 divider, 290x9 on the cpu).
    The divider table is as follows with the corsair sticks   :
    100 divider= every cpu multiplier bootable
    133 divider= only x5 cpu multipel is bootable
    166 divider= only x6 cpu multipel is bootable
    200 divider= only x4 cpu multipel is bootable
    With Adata vitesta 566 the following applys:
    100 divider= every cpu multiplier bootable
    133 divider= every cpu multiplier bootable
    166 divider= every cpu multiplier bootable
    200 divider= every cpu multiplier bootable
    Could someone please tell me what causes this I realize that it´s because of some incompatabillity between my corsair sticks and the mobo/cpu, but what?

    im having the same problem running 2x512 crucial value select 3200.
    with everything at default speeds,  cant lower memory speed or comp crashes before windows loads.  
    if i take out one stick and just run 512, then i can lower memory to 100. but thats it, except i can do the speeds that u listed with the specific cpu multiplier.  with 2 sticks in though i cannot lower the memory speed at all.  i cant find any fixes for this, if anyone has any clues please help!
    running k8n neo2 plat.  1.4 stock bios.  winchester 3000+.

  • Wlan with k8n neo2 and windows 64

    Hi everyone,
    I'm just wondering if anybody has the wlan card shiped with the k8n neo2 working under windows 64 ?
    I could not install the drivers coming with the board. Windows didn't like them. And msi has no 64bit driver on their page.
    So do i have to switch to 32bit windows or use the cable again to get internet running?
    Thanks,
    vanish

    I had it installed as a parallell installation with xp32bits just to play with it some.
    Switched by changing what hd to boot from in bios . so the xp32/xp64
    was completly isolated from eachother .
    Removal was just to boot up xp32 and format the other drive ..
    But got tired of it pretty fast .
    Missed some drivers for connected printer/scanner also .
    No much sense in running 32bits programs in xp64bits as they run with
    the use of emulation 64-32 via wow64 and run slower than on a xp32bits system.
    But it was fun to use the 64bits IE6 , blazing fast compared to the 32bits .

  • K8N Neo2 and 6800 Problems

    System 3500 939 cpu K8N Neo mainboard 6800 Nvidia Card 1024 Ram XP PRO SP2
    I have tried various Drivers 61.77 67.03 65.73 71.20 66.81 66.93 71.24 and many things listed on various forums to stop my computer from crashing 30 seconds into a game. At the momment I have formatted my hard drive and only have Mainboard drivers , video drivers & Directx 9.0c,  Colin Mcrae  & UT2004. Games still crashing. I have installed 3 diferent video cards ASus geforce 2 , MSI 4200 TI and Radeon 9800 pro all 3 cards run perfect  on my system except Asus and 4200 Ti are slow with frame rates. Otherwise no crashes and lock ups. As soon as the 6800 goes back in my system all games crash. Took my card to a friend who has a n force 2 Gigabyte board and my 6800 runs perfect. One thing I noticed on my system was with an older version of DirectX it took longer for my games to crash.
    Any help would be appreciated but after all this I think I will never buy Nvidia again, my previous systems I have always had Via mainboard chipsets and have never had a problem. What a big mistake I made this time!

    Okay thanks for your replys disabling fast writes did nothing to fix my problem or changing any settings in Riva tuner like alot of people on other forums were saying.
    I have now seemed to have fixed the problem and it was such a simple solution I can't believe I hadn't tried it before I'm kicking myself!
    My LCD monitor display likes to be set at 1280x1024 okay well guess what I had never tried running a game at that resolution. So in my game resolution settings when I set it to 1280x1024 I have no lock ups or crashes. If I change the resolution either on my desktop or in the game settings it crashes. I can't believe I never tried it before. Thanks everyone I will try different resolutions now.

  • Boot issue: K8N Neo2 and MSI DR16-B!

    I found my problem, as my board didn't boot normally anymore.
    I forgot that I flashed the newest firmware to my new DR16, unplugging it solved my boot issue.
    Could someone help me out how to solve this? Can I get my old firmware back somehow?
    I liked this recorder somehow, was nice and silent. But: I'd rather keep the board than this recorder...

    Well yes
    I wanted to upgrade the recorder anyhow, so that wasn't the really big problem.
    As I couldn't find the problem with my machine, I exchanged the board first. The new one has a better power regulation, also my dealer exchanged it right away. No big deal also.
    But: As I found the board wasn't responsible, I exchanged my working PSU for the OCZ, which cost me ~150$... I could have saved that money...

  • MSI k8n neo2 and cpu vcore...

    Dear All,
    I just check out with core cell my vcore and i find it @ 1.5v ... but a64 .09 should have 1.4v? I also tryied to set vcore in bios at 1.4v
    but in windows i always find 1.5
    I check it with ntune and core cell...
    What happens?
    tnx

    Use cpu-z from www.cpuid.com to check the voltage .
    The mobo bios may still autodetect winchester to 1.5v , if thats the case change
    cpu_vid from startup to 1.4v .

  • MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and seagate sata2 500Gb

    Hi all,
    As per subject, when the drive is connected to my computer it does not get passed the boot screen as all it keeps on doing is rebooting its self,
    i have checked all my bios settings and all is as it should be, also i would like to mention that i already have 3 other sata drives connected to this motherboard, of which 2 are, 160Gb Seagate hard drives, and 1, 30Gb Weston digital hard drive, and they work perfectly,
    I have also tried unplugging all the drives and just trying the new one, and setting the jumper to limit to 1.5Gb/s but still all it does is reboot, do you think the drive is faulty?
    Thank you

    Quote from: Chippy99 on 21-May-07, 21:51:09
    Seems strange.  I have a Seagate sata2 500GB (ST3500630AS) hooked up to Sata port #1 on my K8N Neo2 and it works perfectly.  I have found it to be *very* intolerant of overclocks though.
    What sata port are you connecting to?  And are you overclocking?
    This could be the problem .....  SATA ports 1 & 2 on the nforce3 boards are NOT locked. I only use 3 & 4 plus set your AGP clock to 67 or 68 to be safe (this is supposed to lock the PCI bus but only seems to work on SATA 3&4). Of course, this won't be a problem if you are running at Safe Default settings.

  • These ATI cards 9500 Pro and 9700 Pro ok for MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and winchester cpu? Compatible?

    Looking at grabbing a used ATI 9500 Pro or used 9700 Pro AGP card for my MSI Neo2 Plat since I can't use my Matrox G400.
    Any problems using either of the above cards? I don't play a huge amount of 3D games so I'm not going to grab a 9800 Pro or XT or 6600GT. A 9500 or 9700 Pro would allow me to play the newer games at reasonable resolutions. Just want to make sure they are compatible.
    thanx

    Ok guys, thanx for the feedback. I missed the 9500 Pro sale, so maybe its for the better. If I'm going to try a bit of 3D gaming, I may aswell get a little bit better card. So here is my question for you folks:
    For my MSI K8N Neo2 and AMD64 3000+ system, I want a card that will have good 2D output and good DVD playback. I want to try some 3D games, but don't want to have the minimum. I was looking at used 9500 Pro's and the 9600 XT but I've come across a used 9700 Pro and a 9800 Pro and 9800 Pro with r360 core (almost a 9800XT). So if I get a 9700 Pro, what will I be able to play smoothly at what settings and what will I be unable to play. Ultimately, I may play mostly on my projector at 858 x 484, so maybe the cards don't matter too much. If I don't play 3D games much after a while, I'll probably downgrade, but I want to give it a try. I can't afford a new 9800 Pro/XT or 6600GT.
    Used cards I'm deciding between. Have to act fast.
    9700 Pro $170 CAD or 9800Pro $210 CAD or 9800 with r360 core $230. Price differences between the cards is as you see there.
    thanx in advance for any feedback,

  • K8N Neo2 & Crucial PC3200 2 X 512 (Model: CT6464Z40B) help please!!!

    Dear friends:
    I just built my first AMD system, with some hesitation to be honest, and of now, the new system has a memory related problem.  I have the following:
    Crucial  (512MB X 2) 1 GB  PC3200 400Mhz  CL3 DDR DIMM (Model:
    CT6464Z40B)
    When I tried to install WinXP Pro for the first time with the two memory modules installed, the system will freeze in the middle of the installation.  When I removed the module from slot 3 (green in color) and leave the other in slot 1 (green), WinXP will load in a breeze.  With WinXP loaded, I re-inserted the module in slot 3 and after a short while the system froze again.  I removed it once more and the system runs as it should.  I removed the module in slot 1 and replaced it with the one in slot 3, and ran the PC with just that one and the PC run just fine, I even installed SP2 and the system runs just fine with one memory module.  My conclusion is that the MOBO doesn't what to run with both modules installed.  I haven't flashed the BIOS yet, that will be my next step.
    Could someone please help me set the DRAM configuration in the BIOS.  I know someone out there already has the right settings for the brand and model mention above and running a stable system.
    Also please help me decipher what the following means (as far as the sequence goes):  2.5-3-3-5-1T TrC11
                      or
               2-3-2-5-1T 230Mhz    ***** these are not the right ones******
    Where do the above go when the sequence in the DRAM in the BIOS in the following:
                                                        Settings
    Max Memclock (MHz)              [100, 133, 166, 200]
    1T/2T Memory Timing             [1T/2T]
    CAS# latency (Tcl)                 [2.0, 2.5, 3.0]
    RAS# to CAS# delay (Trcd)    [2,3,4,5,6,7]
    Min Ras# active time (Tras)    [5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15]
    Row precharge Time (Trp)      [2,3,4,5,6]
    **All have an "auto" setting**
    I apologize for the length of this post and my ignorance about this matter.
    One more thing, I haven't installed the sound board until the system is stable.
    Thanks in advance for all your help
    Chinche

     That's IT!!  I've HAD it!!    M_ther F_cker!  M_ther F_cker!  No MORE!  Not Tonight!
    I give up.  I have messed with every single Memory timing and voltage setting.  One stick of crucial memory works no matter what the settings are, and two sticks of crucial memory throw errors no matter what I do to the BIOS settings.
    I took my memory to my friends house, who also has a K8N-Neo2 and it does the very same thing.  There appears to be a problem with this mobo / ram combination.    
    I am going to contact MSI about it.  For now, I am just using one stick of the Crucial memory just so I can have a stable system.  
    hansh, The reason you aren't having problems is because you are using Ballistix Crucial memory.  chinche and I are using standard issue (read cheaper) Crucial memory.  My friend is also using the Ballistix memory and his system is very stable and the memory even runs in Dual Channel mode!  I'm going to see what MSI comes up with.  If they can't help, I am going to RMA the cheap stuff and go for the Ballistix.
    chinche, here is how to decipher the memory timings (at least according to memtest86+)
    Tcl - Trcd - Trp - Tras - 1T/2T
    They are slightly out of order with the K8N-Neo2 BIOS settings page.
    3-3-3-8-2T means
    1T/2T Memory Timing = 2T
    CAS# latency (Tcl) = 3
    RAS# to CAS# delay (Trcd) = 3
    Min Ras# active time (Tras) =8
    Row precharge Time (Trp) =3
    Sometimes people will list @2.6V or @200Mhz also.  This is either the Memory Voltage or the Memory Clock.
    If you find the solution, please post it here.  I will do the same.
