MOVED: Anyone get X99S Gaming 7 working with an XP941?

This topic has been moved to GAMING Motherboards.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=183113.0

HALF-FIX found!
But another problem rises
Alright here goes: disable XMP
I bought two MSI x99s SLI PLUS, in part because I wanted to use the XP941 and it was recommended by MSI
One of the board strangely was not offering any XMP settings, on the first one when booting to UEFI it would display an XMP button, on the first board I activated it, on the second one it was just not available even if the exact same ram was used (Corsair vengeance DDR4 2800). When installing windows I noticed the XP941 was showing up, I was very happy and basically assumed the other one was defective.
The RAM thing kept being annoying me though and I noticed in MSI Intel extreme utility that when running the RAM stress test it would just fill 3112MB of memory rather than the whole 16GB, I thought maybe my RAM was defective in some way so I plugged the first workstation back and turned it on and ran the stress test on it again only to notice it would not fill the RAM on this system either. Happy that this was normal I rebooted disable XMP and entered 2666 as the speed leaving the processor at base value, this way both station would be identical.
That's where the magic happened, the XP941 suddenly showed up in the disk management utility and I was able to format it.
I still cannot booth from it though but as far as my needs are concerned using it as a data drive is all I wanted.
the 2nd problem remain; why is one board offering me an XMP option and not the other, should I worry about having defective RAM? (BIOS version are identical 1.10, the latest).

  • Anyone get X99S Gaming 7 working with an XP941?

    This FB post by MSI seems to indicate that an XP941 would work well with a new X99S board, but I can't get my new Gaming 7 board to even recognize that it has the drive in the M.2 slot. Has anyone gotten this board/drive combination working? I'm trying to figure out if the drive or the motherboard is faulty or maybe if the bios just isn't compatible with it yet.
    Before you ask, yes I have the latest bios available on the download page, which supposedly adds support for more m.2 devices. I assume that with the popularity of the Samsung m.2 drives, the XP941 must be tested/working by now. Anyone know?

  • How do I Get My Router to Work With iChat ? FAQ 2

    Replaces iCh: FAQ 2 How to get my router to work with iChat?
    Getting your router started with iChat.
    Appropriate for using iChatAV 2 upwards
    Glossary for this FAQ
    Routers: Any configurable device that sits between your computer and the internet link you have.
    Routers seem to fall into two categories
    Those that work straight from the box. See Apple Doc 93333
    NOTE
    This Doc has not been updated since Jan 04
    and those that do not.
    This post will deal with what you may need to look at.
    First off make sure your device is acting as a DHCP server. (if you are already on the internet you may not have to bother with this.)
    Check in the Network Preference Pane, in the "Built in Ethernet" option from the "Show" drop down list.
    Make sure the TCP/IP tab is the 'front' one. You should be able to see Configure IPv4 and it most likely reads Using DCHP. Make a note of your IP address. It will start 10.xxx.xxx.xxx or 192.168.xxx.xxx (the 'x' s will stand for any number between 1 and 255).
    Your router is most likely to be configurable from your browser. You will need to find the IP address to type into the browser from any Readme or PDF files that came on the install disk or visit the makers website and download a manual.
    DMZ Demilitarised Zone
    This is a less secure setting that basically opens all ports and points the incoming data to your computer. (not helpful if you have more than one computer on your LAN)
    NAT Sometimes called NAPT and related to Port Forwarding (also Virtual Server or Pin Holes)
    These settings are usually found in an Advanced setting.
    You will need to set an incoming IP address (Usually 0.0.0.0 for any outside server), a port that data will arrive on, the Inside computers IP address (your computer) and the port it will deal with the data on and the protocol it will use.
    iChat uses TCP and UDP so some devices will need the settings done twice, once for each protocol.
    See Apple Doc 93208 for more information.
    Note:
    Note 1 should read:
    1. All iChat AV traffic is UDP except for ports 5190 and 5298, which need to be open for both TCP and UDP; and 5220, 5222, which need to be open for TCP only.
    UPnP Universal Plug n Play.
    This is a simple Plug and Play type of setting. iChat can find it's own way through a router if the device has this capability.
    Trigger Ports
    Some devices offer a security measure that works by a first or trigger port receiving a data packet and then opening further ports when accepted.
    The first port for incoming Video or Audio invites is port 5678. When you click on the invite window the process moves to port 5060 (so these will need to be opened by the trigger port) for negotiating the final group of ports from the group of 20 (16384-16403 These will need to open when the trigger says so as well). Therefore port 5678 triggers ports 5678, 5060, 16384-16403. All on UDP. Port 5190 neeeds to trigger port 5190 for both TCP and UDP
    Wireless
    Here you will have to read around but this Apple Doc 58514 might be a good starting place.
    Multiple devices
    Make sure only one is acting as a DHCP server. Make sure wireless devices are bridged properly.

  • How do you get Oracle 8i to work with j2sdkee 1.3 B

    I had the j2sdkee1.2.1 working with Oracle 8i and I had the following line in the ~conifg/default.properties files
    Here's what worked:
    jdbcDatasources=jdbc/EstoreDB|jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:ORCL|jdbc/InventoryDB|jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:ORCL|jdbc/jcampDB|jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:ORCL
    In the j2sdkee1.3 beta 2, the resource configuration file format seem to have changed and I am not sure how to get oracle to work. I have tried modifying the new format but it does not seem to work. Can anyone tell me where set drivers for Oracle 8i or any place I can look to figure how to.
    jdbcDataSource.5.name=jdbc/Oracle
    jdbcDataSource.5.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:rmi:??;create=true
    jdbcDriver.0.name=COM.cloudscape.core.RmiJdbcDriver
    jdbcXADataSource.0.name=jdbc/XACloudscape
    jdbcXADataSource.0.classname=COM.cloudscape.core.RemoteXaDataSource
    jdbcXADataSource.0.dbpassword=
    jdbcXADataSource.0.dbuser=
    jdbcXADataSource.0.prop.createDatabase=create
    jdbcXADataSource.0.prop.databaseName=CloudscapeDB
    ==============
    Any pointers on how to get Oracle 8i to work with j2sdkee1.3 b2 will be appreciated. thanks.
    --pvt

    You are right. It seems the format has changed.
    However, now there is and admin tool that comes with J2EE SDK 1.3 Now you don't have to touch the config file by hand.
    You can use this tool to get the configuration done.
    To add JDBC driver the command is...
    j2eeadmin -addJdbcDriver oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
    and to add a data source the command is...
    j2eeadmin -addJdbcDatasource jdbc/Oracle jdbc:oracle:thin@rtc:1521:acct
    Read details about this and other configuration you can do using this toll in the file %J2EE_HOME%/doc/release/ConfigGuide.html

  • Has anyone got the B500 to work with Ubuntu? (nvidia driver problems)

    In two weeks, I have been completely unable to get the nvidia driver working with the B500 on Linux. No matter what I try to do, the X server doesn't start, and my /var/log/Xorg.0.log file ends with "fatal server error: no screens found." I have tried feeding a custom modeline to xorg.conf, explicitly calling an EDID file which I extracted from the Windows installation, using the upstream nvidia driver installer, using the official repository driver, and probably a bunch of other stuff that I'm not recalling right now.
    Versions I've tried this on:
    Kubuntu 10.04, 32- and 64-bit
    Ubuntu 10.04, 32-bit
    Kubuntu 9.10, 32-and 64-bit
    I am stumped. Has anyone successfully gotten this to work?
    best,
    -p.

    Solved with the kind assistance of paulricardomc on the Ubuntu Forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1477507
    Short version of the fix:
    1. Extract the edid from the Windows partition using softMCCS, saving as edid.bin
    2. Save the edid.bin file in /etc/X11 (or wherever you like)
    3. Include the following in the device section of your xorg.conf:
    "Option"  "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP-0"
    "Option" "CustomEDID" "DFP-0:/etc/X11/edid.bin"
    Fire up X and you're good to go.

  • Anyone got Nokia Music to work with (recognise) N9...

    Several times over the last months I have tried to get Nokia Music to work with my N95 8GB.
    Every time I have spent hours and hours installing, upgrading, uninstalling etc etc but never success.
    The Nokia Music PC software will not recognize my phone.
    No matter what kind of connection i choose when i connect the phone - PCSuite, Mediaplayer etc, none of them makes the Nokia Music recognise the phone.
    I am currently running Windows XP SP3, PC-suite 7.1.30.9, Nokia Music 1.3.20716.09, phone firmware is 31.0.015, phone code is 0550372
    I am (_again_) dead tired of this, and for the moment (again) I truely hate Nokia PC software.
    Has anyone got Nokia Music to work with N95 8GB?
    Regards,
    Njål
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

     Hi Njaale
    Yes - it is working fine for me on a n95-
    You need to connect your n95 in Media player mode.
    You have  1.3.20716.09  but the latest version is - 1.3.2072
    1) You can get the latest version from here - http://musicstore.nokia.com/download.aspx 
    2) If you are having licencing issue it could be because of the drm folder . If step one does not work try to delete the drm folder - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM . You need to make sure that hidden files and folders are not hidden and also that protected operating system files are not hidden.
    To see hidden files:
    1.
    On the Tools menu in Windows Explorer, click Folder Options.
    2.
    Click the View tab.
    3.
    Under Hidden files and folders, click Show hidden files and folders.
    Oh and just to be sure you are using nokia music
    Here is a picture of it - http://www.slashphone.com/media/data/766/nokia_mus​ic.jpg
    You can see in that picture on the left hand side is the phone you drag and drop your music into that phone picture to transfer your music.
    Nokia pc suite below does not transfer nokia music
    picutre - http://tltc.shu.edu/mobile/Nokia-PC-Suite_1.png
    This is because the software in the first link (nokia music) is designed to recognise "DRM" software. But nokia PC suite in the second link does not currently do that.

  • Anyone Get Live Update to Work on Win XP 64 Bit?

    The following happened when I installed MIS Live Update from both the MB's cd and the latest version of Live Update (v 3) downloaded from the MSI website.
    Installed Liveupdate.  Installation went fine.
    Said to restart comp.  Restarted comp.
    Windows booted.  Got error message "The service was not started".
    Computer restarted with no input from me.
    Windows booted and got same error message.
    Comp restarted again.
    This infinite restart loop continued.
    Pressed F8.  Went to Safe Mode. Uninstalled LIveupdate from Add/Remove Programs in CP.
    Restarted.
    Comp back to normal but no Live Update (as expected).
    Anyone else see this and/ or get Live Update to work with XP 64 bit edition?

    Yes you are right.  The system drive will always be Drive C, but I am not sure if D will be my storage drive or the other sytem drive.  I could always try and find out but just havn't.
    In the past, I had lots of virtual drives (partitions), and HDD's (as many as 10 total IDE devices).  But when the larger drives became more affordable, I prefer running with just 2, the system and storage for the sake of simplicity.  Since I do beta testing, I have having to reformat and reinstall a lot, so this system has worked great for me.

  • Need help getting Apple Extreme to work with Be box

    Anyone able to give an idiots guide to getting Apple Extreme to work with Be Box wireless modem?
    Used to have Orange (Wanadoo) broadband with Livebox wireless router, which i had my AE wired up to and it worked fine. Signed up with Be* and managed to get their wireless router working and communicating with my Mac OK. When i hooked up AE the green light came on but i can't manage to get my Mac to find it.
    Any help would be very appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hello Orang Hutan. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    What is your connectivity goal for the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn)?
    o Connect it directly to the Be Box wireless router via Ethernet, or
    o Connect it wirelessly to the Be Box's wireless network?
    If it is to go the wireless route, do you want the AEBSn to extend the wireless range of the Be Box?

  • How to get online apps to work with the Verizon DSL modem firewall set at "Medium" level, not "Low?"

    How to get online apps to work with the Verizon DSL modem firewall set at “Medium” level? Xbox 360 Live, FTP, and the Windows sntp Time checker native to Windows XP WON’T WORK unless the Verizon firewall is first reset down to “Low.” Then all works well, but I then risk low firewall protection. Setup: · Westell 6100 DSL modem (Software Version: VER:4.04.03.00 Transceiver Revision: 7.2.3.0 Model Name: C90-610015-06), · D-Link DIR-655 wireless router (Hardware Version: A3, Firmware Version: 1.21), For Xbox 360 Live the “canned” port forwarding rule for provided in Verizon’s drop-down list for the Westell 6100 modem forwards ports 88 and 3074 for both TCP and UDP. This does not meet Microsoft’s forwarding recommendations for Xbox 360 Live stated at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908874. Instead, for the Verizon modem (Westell) I made a new port forwarding rule to comply with those Microsoft instructions. It forwards ports 53, 80 and 3074 for TCP and ports 53, 88 and 3074 for UDP. These same ports are also forwarded in the D-Link router configuration. For FTP, port 21 is also forwarded for TCP and UDP in both modem and router. But they don’t work until I first cripple the Verizon firewall down to “Low.” How to get them to work with the Verizon firewall up to Medium?

    While I do not know the answer to your question, BUT since you have this modem and another router - you could just follow.

  • I followed all the directions to get Norton 360 to work with Firefox 8, but nothing works. I love Firefox, but if my Norton 360 won't work with it I'll be stuck with IE, which I do not like. Please Help Me!

    I followed all the directions to get Firefox 8 to work with my Norton 360, but nothing has worked. Is there anything else I can do? I didn't know there was an issue when I first upgraded to Firefox 8 so didn't choose the Norton plug ins immediately so I uninstalled Firefox hoping to be able to do it correctly when I Downloaded it again. Unfortunately it didn't ask me any thing regarding Norton so I went to Plug ins as directed to Enable Norton 360's plug ins, but none were listed.
    What can I do now? I LOVE Firefox! If we can't make it work I'll be stuck with Internet Explorer which I do not care for at all!
    I need to have Norton Security to protect my computer. Please help me find a solution to this problem ASAP.

    Hi Susie, I use Norton 360 and have the latest Firefox 8 installed is working fine for me. Firefox 8 support for [http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-360/Firefox-8-Support-for-Norton-Toolbar/td-p/581640 Norton Toolbar] was released on Nov 8th. Install the appropriate add-ons based on the version of Norton 360 you're using (see official Norton link above). Hope this helps.

    I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.

    Will not work.  To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported.  The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

  • I just upgraded to os 10.9.5. When I try to open iPhoto, I am told that the version I have(9.3), is not compatible with the os. But it came with it when I upgraded. What do I have to do to get an iPhoto that works with 10.9.5? TIA

    I just upgraded to os 10.9.5 on my 15 " macbook pro from os 10.7.5. When I try to open iPhoto, I get the message that it is not compatible with the os. How can that be??? It came with the upgrade. It says the version of iPhoto is 9.3. How do I get an iPhoto that works with os 10.9.5? TIA

    This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks.  It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgradeto iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
    Note 1:  every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
    Note 2:  If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1

    that I need to turn on so I can use my headphone while talking on the phone?

    Are you using the earbuds that came with the iPhone? If you are using other earphones, it's possible that they need an adaptor to work with the iPhone's recessed headphone jack. 

  • How do I get Front Row to work with Lion?

    Hello fellow Mac users,
    How do I get Front Row to work with Lion? I have an iMac 27 inch computer and is the sole entertainment provider for my bedroom. I refuse to put a TV in my room and wanted to know how to get Front Row to work again on my mac? It seems that the upgrade to Lion erased the app.
    I have quite a few movies and series that I bought off iTunes and is a shame that I can't use a media center app like Front Row on Lion.

    I kind of have the opposite problem. I need to know how to turn off my remote on the computer. I am using the remote for my Apple TV and it keeps making the volume on my Computer go up and down (with annoying sounds).
    There used to be a way to un-sync the remote with the comp but I cannot remember how and the Apple help is not much help! I have Lion.
    Thanks!
    Best,
    Tony
