OMG !!!!
Something is really weird about this bios !!!!
I can't boot overclocked from bios even at 220 HT, and at the beginning i was REALY disapointed.
Then i set it to optimize defaults ( and yes i did the whole flashing thing ) and i am now IN WINDOWS with my cheapo Kingston Value that did MAX 230 with problems NOW AT A WOOPING 237 Mhz and still going UP !!!!
OMG OMG....
If only i can get it to boot from bios.Seems pretty stable in windows even at 237.
Really strange guys.I thought 230 was my memory limit....
Gonna try higher and let you know.
P.S. this bios seems to like Kinston Ram....Value at least

    --Quick Guide for flashing BIOS, provided by MSI--
    1. Create a MS-DOS boot diskette, then copy the the .exe and the bios file to the floppy disk. Both of these files can be found in the package you downloaded.
    2. Press "Delete" and go to BIOS setup while computer bootup.
    Check BIOS advanced features and see if BIOS flash write control is enabled
    (This option must be enabled. If you can not find this setting, it means the BIOS can be
    flashed.)
    3. Boot from MS-DOS boot diskette and get a:\> prompt.
    4. Type "", then press ENTER
    5. The flash program will then ask "Do you want to save BIOS?", please press "N" for no. The when you see Press 'Y' to program or 'N' to Exit, please press "Y" to continue.
    6. After flashing complete, remove floppy and reset the system .
    7. Press DELETE or F1 when prompted at first reboot after flashing.
    8. Load BIOS optimized defaults, then save settings and exits.
    Drivers & Needed Files:
    (Note: All these drivers are for Windows XP.)
    Leaked Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 4.40
    (Please use at your own risk, these are LEAKED drivers. Password for the .zip file is "ocworkbench rules". Also, you will need to rename the WinXP_2K folder in IDE to either WinXP or Win2K else the installer doesn't pick it up.) Thanks for the link Wonkanoby!
    *NEW* Leaked Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 5.03
    More leaked drivers? Seems some parts of the drivers are older and some are newer.
    1. Windows XP Service Pack 1A (Web Install) -or- Windows XP Service Pack 1A (Full Install)
    2. Microsoft DirectX 9.0b (Web Install) -or- Microsoft DirectX 9.0b (Full Install)
    3. Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 4.24
    4. AMD Athlon 64 Processor Driver Version 1.1.0.14
    5. Nvidia Video Card Driver Version 56.72 -or- Omega Nvidia Video Card Driver Version v1.5303
    (The Omega drivers are third party drivers optimized for gaming, most prefer these over the standard Nvidia drivers.)
    5. ATI Video Card Driver Version 4.7 -or- Omega ATI Video Card Driver Version 2.5.51
    (The Omega drivers are third party drivers optimized for gaming, most prefer these over the standard ATI drivers.)
    6. Onboard Sound Driver (Realtek AC'97 Audio Codec) Version A3.61
    It is HIGHLY reccomended that you install the drivers/needed files in the order listed above. Please note that there are two #5's because you either install one or the other depending on your video card, do not install both of them.
    You will come across a problem here though. You can't install the chipset drivers without installing the Windows service pack and DirectX first, but the Windows service pack and DirectX installs need the internet to download files and you won't have working internet until you install the chipset drivers. Here's what I did to get around this. Instead of downloading the web install versions of Windows service pack and DirectX, download the full version and and put them along with all the other drivers on a backup hard drive or burn them to a CD, this way you will have all the drivers you need when it's time to install them and none of them will require the internet to download files.
    Another note when installing drivers. Apparently the Nvidia chipset drivers also come with drivers for the onboard sound, but people seem to agree that the Realtek onboard sound drivers are better. When you are installing the Nvidia chipset drivers, just be sure to uncheck the box for sound drivers when it asks you which drivers you would like to install. Now you can safely install the Realtek drivers without any chance of conflicting sound drivers. Thanks for the tip Wonkanoby!

    oh.  IIRC the installer just says USB 2.0 will be fully functional after SP1 is installed.  So after you install SP1 you go into device manager and u click update driver and it will auto search and update the driver.
    Simplicity-wise, i guess its pretty much equal.  It might take less preparation to just copy DX9 full onto a CD and install that first, then nforce driver, then right away you have yoru internet connection.
    but i dunno.. i guess i will try it your way this time when my RMA"d board comes.
    i will be fomratting and doing a fresh install later on today and will let you know if i come across any problems

  • MSI K8N Neo Platinum & Crucial Ballistix 512MB RAM Problem

    I have had MSI K8N Neo Platinum and 1x Crucial Ballistix 512MB RAM for 11 months.
    I have had 1x Crucial Ballistix 512MB RAM for 2.5 months, for a total of two.
    I have had MSI GeForce 6600GT (NX6600GT-VTD) 128MB AGP for 1 month.
    For about 1.5 to 2 weeks, I have been seeing random crashes while playing PC games.
    I started a thread on the Hard OCP forums a few days ago.  I did not know MSI had forums =)
    Rather than re-typing, I may as well just post the link:
    http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=934956
    My issue is also similar to this one:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=83799.0
    Thanks for the help.

    ALL RIGHT, after almost    FOUR    months my issue is FINALLY    resolved.
    It is amazing how much time passes when you are hesitant to buy parts unless you are 95% sure it will fix the problem.
    OK, here is an update as to what I remember.
    I went to BIOS 1.4 and tried many different physical and BIOS RAM configurations (Different seating, different number of DIMMs, different RAM timings, voltages, etc).
    I concluded that I could not make my PC 100% stable, but I could get it darn close.  With certain settings, such as DDR400, 2-2-2-6, 1T, 2.80V, Aggressive Timing enabled, Memtest failed test #5 every time (this is spec for my RAM).  With other settings, such as DDR333, 2.5-3-3-7, 2T, Auto V, Aggressive Timing enabled, Memtest failed test #5 maybe once out of 5000.
    I also concluded that the RAM voltage and Aggressive Timing setting was having a big impact.  Some settings would not work (failed Memtest) with RAM at 2.80V but would work with RAM at Auto V.  Some settings would not work (failed Memtest) with Aggressive Timing enabled but would work with it disabled.
    Finally, I started to occasionally get R,G,R,G (Processor Initialization) on the D-Bracket upon cold-start & warm-start, which suggests a PSU issue:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=76972.msg542545#msg542545
    That pushed me over the top, and I decided to buy a new PSU (TG-480-U22) and a new SATA HDD (WD2500KS) just because.
    Problem solved.  Thanks for all the help.
    I will continue to buy MSI in the future just because of these forums…and a good product of course!

  • MSI K8N Neo Platinum with Vapochill Case problems - Help anyone. :)

    Hi all,
    Had a bit of a tricky problem and as Im new to this board I have no idea what could be causing this.
    First all all system specs:
    Athlon 64 3700+ Clawhammer
    MSI K8N Neo Platinum -
    1 gig Corsair XMS ProL Low Latency Ram (2 x 512mb)
    Nvidia Gefore 6600GT
    1 x WD Raptor 10000rpm HD
    NEC 2500a DVD writer.
    Eye-T 550w PSU.
    Vapochill SE Case with installed Vapochill Phase change cooling.
    Here are photos of it in its present state, you will notice that it isnt installed in the case at the moment.
    The reason for that is because the two wont work together and I want them to so so bad...
    So, hopefully someone here can save the day for me - here goes.
    I have tested the Motherboard and all other componants outside of the case and everything runs smoothly and there are no problems what so ever, great.
    I have also retested the Vapochill case with another motherboard and that also works without a hitch.
    The problem comes when I insall the MSI board into the system, all hooked with a really basic setup, PSU, Case cooling, CPU and Ram. Flick the on switch on the power suply and the system turns on for around 1/2 a second then turns off again. I found this strange because it soundnt come on at all until I press the power button.
    If I press the power button the same thing will happen over and over.
    I have tried a different powersupply and this does nothing at all.
    I have checked for shorts and there is no possible way it is shorting on anything.
    I have a fan plugged in where the CPU fan would go and this doesnt help.
    I have taken it back out and tested it again and it still works ok.
    Does this sound familiar to anyone? Are there any secret Bio's menu's that would have an option that would solve this?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Glenn

    When you are running the MoBo standalone, what are you connecting to the Power, Reset, HDD, etc. pins ?  Are you using the wires from the Vapochill case, or something else ?  It looks like a single cable with an intermittent switch (red/white cable).  I once had a similar sort of problem and it was because I hadn't connected up (the incredibly fiddly) cables correctly.  Other than that, I would have gone for a short of some sort - but you have checked that already, so . . . .
    As to the system starting to power-up when you switch on the PSU, I wouldn't worry too much about this.  It seems to happen from time to time with some of my systems - amongst other things, the BIOS can be set to resume to previous state after a power-fail.

  • Newb Question MSI K8N Neo Platinum.

    okay i have my parts coming in for my first build ever(i'm nervous, but anxious at the same time) and i just got my MSI K8N Neo Platinum today, all the other parts will come in the next couple of days, cpu arrives next week i believe, specs:
    Antec P-160WF
    OCZ 520w
    Athlon 3400+
    mobo(above)
    1g corsair
    160 Samsung S-ATA HD
    I've been going over the mobo manual and i'm confused. I'm not familiar with raid and never had a sata drive, do they go hand and hand? Meaning do i have to set up a raid to use the s-ata drive or do i just plug the sata drive into the mobo and everything will work, loading up windows xp and all? I don't want to use raid, but do i have to? i'm trying to make this build as simple as possible since it's my first time, i know this is probably a dumb question, i'm just new at this.....don't be surprised to see more dumb questions in the coming weeks! thanks.

    In a word, no.
    I've just fired up my first homebuilt last night.  Joy!  It's all went perfect on the first power-up.  I'm in a similar position, and have a single SATA Hitachi Deskstar.  Although I've not yet installed an OS, my understanding is that the Serial ATA interface will work just fine with a single drive.  No multiple drive RAID is needed.
    My understanding is that all you have to be sure to do is load the SATA drivers from the included diskette, by pressing F6 on boot up.  Otherwise the drive won't be properly recognized by the bios.  I haven't done this yet, and its still showing as an IDE drive in some places of my bios setup.
    If I had it to do over again I doubt I'd spend the extra dollars to go SATA with a single HD.  It adds another level of complexity in transferring things to the new machine, and - according to certain authorities -- doesn't really add the extra performance over an ATA 133 that I first thought it would.  At least with a 7200 RPM drive, it seems that the 150 or 133 limits never come into play, as the drive's mechanical limitations are less than both... so it's not a bottleneck.
    I'm still trying to decide the best way to transfer my Win xp OS and other MS Office programs and updates.  I'm not sure if I can clone my PATA HD to the SATA, or if I do what problems I'd have to fix.  I've been thinking about transferring a Ghost or Acronis True Image to the new machine and then doing a WinXP repair install to see if I can get everything working with a minimum of time and effort.  I'm not sure what to expect, or if it will even work at all.  Or if it does, if it will leave me with problems (registry, drivers, etc).
    We'll soon see.
    Good luck with the build.  The only real headache I had, other than getting the HSF uniit on the processor, was trying to connect the case front panel wires for the USB, Firewire, and Audio out and IN jacks, to the mainboard headers.  The case wires were single pins and were labeled differently that the MB header block pin assignments.  I finally gave up on the audio and firewire, and just used the USB connections after modifying them -- removing the two extra ground wires on pins 9 and 10.
    Just take your time and follow the directions.  Spend some time looking at the way the heatsink and fan connect onto the processor.  Doing that without messing up the thermal compound can be tricky, and the directions from AMD could be clearer on that score.
    Again, good luck,
    thanks for the info, let me know how it goes...by the sound of what rainz said it seems you don't need to put in that 3.5" floppy disk that came with the mobo, is that right, rainz? Let me know how your OS installs onebyte, i'm curious to know if the SATA gave you trouble or not, wish you luck!

  • SATA port multiplier on MSI K8N Neo Platinum - NForce3 250Gb?

    Hi,
    I have a MSI K8N Neo Platinum, which uses a NForce3 250Gb chipset. I have read that port multipliers can use either SATA or SATA II hosts and drives, but I don't know if the technology is 100%, transparently compatible.
    Is the aforementioned chipset/motherboard compatible with port multiplier technology?
    Does it support FIS, which gives the greatest perfomance?
    Does it need a BIOS or driver update?
    Thanks for the attention

    Hi!
    The K8N Neo Platinum (MS-7030) doesn't use -5v to anything.
    So the -5v from the old atx spesification is not needed in your case.
    WoW, thanks for fast reply!
    So, it won't be any problem to use Antecs SmartPower 2.0 450W with this board then? Want to make sure about it, before accept Antecs offer for replacement and had spent over 4 days to find the problem with his computer. Really don't want to do it again. 
    This is his riggs:
    Antec Sonata
    AMD 64 3000+ S754
    Corsair Value S. PC3200 DDR 512MB
    Maxtor Diamondmax 9 250GB SATA
    Maxtor Diamondmax 9 IDE 160GB
    Sapphire Radeon 9550 Atlantis 128MB DDR
    and
    Accton ethernet card on PCI slot
    MSI D-Bracket2
    so
    With the "new" Antec SmartPower 2.0 450W
    Any problem with this rigg and PSU?
    edit:
    Dound this post that it said the board do need -5V and now Im confused?

    OK,
    System will post, according to MSI Website I have the latest Bios version.
    I can boot from CD.
    The only odd item is that I am using the HD that I took out of my old computer with windows already on it.  
    Tried re-installing windows XP.  It went through the loading process and then rebooted.  Same error message appears.
    Also, is 48 degrees normal for idle temp on CPU AMD 64 3400? 36 degrees NB temp ok?
    Oh, yeah, I have a floppy installed, CD-ROM, CD RW, all non SATA. Using IDE cables.

    MSI K8N Neo Platinum
    AMD 64 3400

    Sony Cd-RW
    2 x 512 crucial 400 ddram  slosts 1 and 2
    Asus V9980 ultra GeForce FX 5950 256 TVD
    Do I need to clear bios and re-start?
    HD is on it's own cable in IDE 1
    Cds on IDE 2 shared.
    let me know what you think.
    The other related posts I read, people were using raid or multiple OS.  I'm not.

    I had the same issues as you sometimes Windows would install and sometimes it wouldn't the problem was related to ram. I had my ram in slots one and two like you did and I moved the ram to slots 1 and 3 and now the machine is rock solid stable.
    I think most of the problems people are having are actually more ram related than anything else.
    So try moving the stick of ram you have in slot 2 to slot 3 and see if this solves your problem. This solution is on forums somewhere I am just not sure where.
    Take care,

  • MSI K8n Neo Platinum

    Hi Guys,
                 I am having a problem with my computer at the moment. I am having trouble getting into the BIOS of this motherboard (MSI K8N Neo Platinum). When I try to get into BIOS, it goes into a black screen with a little line on top of it and its blinking. This has never happened before. Then when I shut off my computer since I couldn't get into the bios, I turned it back on and it goes on but nothing goes to screen or it wont boot up to startup screen. Then I turn it off, I reset the BIOS and turn it back on. Now it boots up to the startup screen, but when it says press del to get into bios, I pressed that and it happens again, it will not get into bios. When I do this over again by resetting the bios, this time without getting into BIOS, it goes on and boots up to Windows XP. I want to reformat my hard drive with a fresh copy of XP Pro, but I can't get into BIOS to do that. Can someone help me?

    Same thing happened to me today. Thanks MSI for publishing a Betaversion of a BIOSupgrade on the Live update.. 
    At first I figured that there must have been some fault during the BIOSflash so I downloaded the file again and repeated procedure. This time it worked like a charm and I could do all my BIOS-settings. The next restart the problem was back again though, and this time I had swapped the order for my SATA-drives to boot (to the way they should) but the system couldn't boot. So I couldn't enter neither the bios or Windows. Luckily you can shift the primary boot device by pressing F11 though, so I got out of the libido...
    Now I've downloaded the old 1.9 Version instead and I sure as h*** won't do any more beta-testing for MSI by using the Live Update anymore!

    but still same error, i aint no expert so i might have missed something in bios or something :(
    please help me if you can..

    Flashing bios with memory errors is a veeeeery bad idea .
    Almost guarantied to ruin your bios chip with bad data block.
    That this even is suggested with mem errors , well .
    You need to resolve the mem errors before doing anything else.
    The windows xp install routine is a very heavy user of cpu and memory
    and will fail if you have mem errors like you have.
    Some things to try is entering bios and change auto settings on cpu voltage
    giving it 0.5v more than default .
    Set the memorys voltage to vendors max approved voltage
    which for yours is 2.6v +/- 0.1v . So it's safe to set at 2.7v .
    Set timings to cas 3 ,ras 3 ,trp 3 , tras 8 , CMD 2T.
    Pushing it firmly down in the dimm socket , sometimes it's not all the way down there even if the plastic lockers snap in.
    Disconnect all devices not needed for a windows install ,things can be added later.
    Have only the hd that os is to be installed to , one cdrom , floppy , memory and
    gfx card .
    Disconnect USB case front connector (cause corruption and strange faults if
    USBOC pin is connected)

  • Help with MSI K8N Neo Platinum

    HELP please- motherboard MSI K8N Neo PLATINUM: I tried to take away the backplate for the heatsink (on the back side of MB) in order to install the zalman HS beafore i read the forum (use a fan...) and the worst of all happend:
    I scratched the back surface!! the scratches are minor, that is 4 scratches half a milimeter long each and not deep but i can see the copper of some lines leading from the memory slots to the processr. My question is : can I try and build the computer on that motherboard anyway or better buy a new one? is there a risk of dammaging other components? oh god what a mistake!

    Make sure the new backplate is non-conductive. The backplate for the Hyper 6 has a non-conductive sticker on it. Make sure to keep it on if youve got one... If the lines are exposed even with the back-plate on perhaps you should cover them with some non-conductive (100% non conductive!) tape or something.
    Then it doesnt matter if they are exposed, as long as they are ok.
    A good tip, which got when i was removing my backplate, is to use a blow dryer to heat it up and the remove it with your fingers. That way youll also notice if it gets to hot
    The glue gets sticky at blow drier temps. And pls, dont singe the MB with your blow dryer, you only have to make it hot, and if you cant touch it, how can you remove it with your fingers?
    I guess theres no way of telling if you have a serious prob and no way to tell if your cpu will be ok. I guess you could (?) try and start it wíthout anything (cpu, mems) but a PSU, and then, if it (and maybe the PSU) goes "!Pfsssssss!"  or "bang!", youll now you will have to replace it.
    I put a screwdriver through an asus board once, and it still worked...

    Hi (my english is not good sorry for that)
    I just got my new computer:
    MSI K8N NEO Platinum Edition
    AMD Athlon64 3200+
    Western Digital Caviar 160Gb
    PNY Verto GeForce 6800Ultra 256Mb
    1GB Value Select pc3200
    Levicom 500W
    The Problem is that when i start the computer, it boot and die directly no bootscreen what so ever, it boot and die.  i dont know what to do plz help me

    Make sure you have Both the ATX Wires on.. theres the Big one! (21Pins i think).. and the Small 4Pin Connector both need to be connected.. if you havent done so yet.. Another thing you could do is Take everything out and place it on a cardboard or something appropriate for the mobo.... I think your motherboard is shorting?.. if it's touching your case.. I had somewhat the same issue long time ago.. give it a try..if you want hope it helps..

  • MSI K8N-NEO-PLATINUM nForce3 250 + Corsair vs.

    Hi, I'm thinking of buying a new computer with a MSI motherboard and now thinking if these will correct and have no direct problems, MSI K8N-NEO-PLATINUM nForce3 250GB + Corsair VS512MB400 Value Select 512Mb DDR PC3200 400MHz 184pin Unbuffered CL2.5. I'm not the guy who is intresserd in overclocking and such things.
    Will that motherboard and memory correct good with each other ?
    Sorry for my bad english. :D

    EDIT: I think I made this topic in the wrong forum. Mods move it to AMD64 nVidia Based board  ?

    MakubeX,
    I have the Antec True Power 480. Unfortunately it only has 22 or 23 amps (the specs and the label on the psu have different ratings  ) on the +12V rail. Most of the folks here recommend a power supply with at least 24 amps.
    The good news is that the system in my sig is working flawlessly so the extra 1 or 2 amps don't seem to make a big difference, at least in my case. I will say, however, that according to Core Center my +12V rail runs around 11.5 volts, which is low and nearly out of ATX sepc. The low voltage will result in higher amperage draw...but again, the system is stable.
    I wish you good luck

    Since this is a bi-directional bus (like DDR memory) this 800 gets multiplied by 2.
    2 * 800MHz = 1600MHz or 1.6GHz
    I'm sure you've seen AMD advertise a 1600MHz HyperTransport in response to Intel's 800MHz FSB.
    To my knowledge, you can't use the 5x multiplier in Socket 754 (unless you underclock the Front Side Bus?)
    The 5x will be available on Socket 939.
    Ah.  That's very enlightening.  Thanks for the info.
