785GTM-E45 VCORE ADJ.?

Hi Everybody,
I update new bios (g10) my 785gtm-e45, IGP overclok is on but there is no vcore adjusment. Will MSI enable vcore adjusment or should we mod our bios to enable or selectable vcore?

See this thread, same topic.

785GTM-E45 vcore reset when resume

I currently have the vcore set to 1.34x in the bios since auto puts it over 1.45. When I resume from S3 the vcore resets itself to auto.
Nothing is overclocked, it is all at default speeds except my memory which is running at 800mhz.
I read about the high auto vcore, but it shouldn't be resetting to auto on resume.
BIOS is version 8.8, that latest I was able to find.

If your intention is to keep the CPU with low voltages ,you could do the opposite and Enable CnQ ONLY ,to keep the CPU at low voltages dinamically.
And the real measurement is made with a multimeter at the VRM coil outputs on the back of the mobo.
The voltages you see are software reads.
I plan to use CnQ, but CnQ is used to lower power usage while you are using the computer. When not in use I'd prefer it to sleep to save even more energy. I would just shut it down but it is a media PC and I would to be able to turn it on with my remote.
I'm aware the software voltages are not accurate. In the BIOS the "safe settings" for vcore are between 1.447 and 1.456 with Auto being between 1.453 and 1.456. So it isn't just software readings. I considered that the sensor could be doing something weird on resume and reading wrong, but running prime95 for 5-10 mins after a resume shows temps several degrees higher than before the sleep/resume.

785GTM-E45 keeps turning off

Hi guys,
I seem to be having a problem with my MSI 785GTM-E45 that I purchased from Tigerdirect as a barebones kit. I'm a whiz at building systems, been doing it for years so I doubt I did anything wrong but who knows....
The weird part is.. two identical systems and SAME problem.

So far, I've purchased thermal paste, the cleaner products to get the paste off. I've cleaned this twice and SAME problem.
I've purchased a new CPU cooler and am still having the same problem. My next thought would be the power supply.. but I don't want to be random and keep wasting my $$!
Any ideas on what else to try?

Given what the CPU temp is at, I suspect thermal shutdown. 65 c is thermal max for deneb cpu's. Also your 450 watt PSU may not be up to snuff. double and tripple check cpu cooler seating, and reseat cpu, check for bent/damaged pins...just in case.

785GTM-E45 SATA (AHCI) HDD and IDE DVD drive cannot be used together

I have bought 785GTM-E45, and installed a sata hdd and a IDE dvd drive on it. the sata is set to ahci mode. After install xp using f6 method and install all the drivers, I cannot find the dvd drive at all in windows. I have to go into bios to set the sata ports back to IDE model to make the dvd appear again.
Anyone knows the reason? It looks like a bios bug. I am using the new v8 bios.

Quote from: vm1 on 06-October-09, 00:12:31
It is just annoying that this board has so many issues. No vcore change, no gpu voltage change, v8 bios will freeze if entering processor details, and the issue in this current topic. I have used at least three other brands' boards and never had any issue before. Oh my, MSI...
MSI bashing is NOT allowed
>>Please read and comply with the Forum Rules.<<
You could have read the manual before buying, then you would have known it's a cheap office board.

785GTM-E45 not POSTing after a week (Need help)

Hello guys and girls,
Good day to you.
I am new here as I just happily purchase my new MSI motherboard last week. Yay~
However, I am now currently facing problem in POSTing the PC after it was working beautifully for a week. Hope someone can help me as I have exhausted my testing/diagnostics options.
Some other infos that might be informative :-
1.) APS LED does not light anymore.
2.) No longer have successful POST beep anymore. (CPU Cooler comes on though)
3.) Of course the black screen.
4.) The last boot time, I remember seeing CMOS related error in the POST screen. After that loaded into Windows XP 32bit and I restarted the PC. Then the No POST happened.
My PC hardware components :-
CPU: Athlon X2 5000 (2.2GHz)
Motherboard: MSI 785GTM-E45 (ver 1.4) (No idea on how to check the BIOS as I can't even POST now)
RAM: I have 4 units working memory that I have tested to be working in this motherboard before it is not POSTing.
a.) Kingston DDR2 667MHz (KVR667D2N5/2G) [1 Stick]
b.) Mushkin DDR2 800MHz [1 Stick]
c.) Corsair Dominator DDR2 1066MHz 2x1GB Kit [2 Sticks] (using this one as the main before it failed to POST)
Graphics: Using onboard
PSU: Seasonic S12D 750W
a.) +3.3V = 24A ; +5V = 30A. (150W)
b.) +12V Combine = 62A (744W)
c.) -12V = 0.8A (9.6W)
d.) +5Vsb = 3A (15W)
Diagnostics that I have done :-
1.) Checked whether the motherboard is touching the casing which will ground it. The motherboard is screwed on the standoffs with a 1.5cm away from the case. Checked the motherboard edges, not touching the casing either. Checked whether is there any screws that are short-circuiting the motherboard, nothing there as well.
2.) Unplug the HDD and ODD. No POST as well. Plugged the HDD and ODD to another computer, it works.
3.) Triple checked the power connections in the PC. No POST. After that plugged my Seasonic PSU to another computer to test. It was working.
4.) Plugged another working PSU (Xigmatek 550W) from a working PC. Quadruple check the power connections is correct. No POST still.
5.) Test the memory DIMMs with different slots (all 4 of them). Installed one at a time and each time is in different slot. No POST still. Tried the board with NO memory, it beeps non-stop (Good news it is still working?)
6.) Did the Clear CMOS method according to manual. No POST still.
7.) Checked the monitor by plugging into another computer and see whether is it faulty. Is working.
8.) Retest all the memory DIMMs in another PC. All 4 DIMMs is working in another PC.
9.) Carefully remove the CPU and reseat the processor. After that retest all the 4 memory DIMMS (No matter which slot). No POST still.
10.) Disassemble the motherboard from the casing and other components to checked whether the capacitors are bad. Didn't detect any.
11.) Plugged in a working graphic card to check whether the onboard graphic is faulty. No POST still.
So now, I think I am left with 2 possibilities. The processor or the motherboard, however, the motherboard was the one showing symptoms based on the LED thing. So I am siding towards the motherboard is faulty?
I am out of ideas now. Hope someone can help me.

Yes, the CPU power is connected. both the 4 pins and 24 pins.
Some updates, I went to buy a Sempron 140 processor to test just for the sake whether the mobo works.. I just burnt some money on it.. it won't work.. Brought the motherboard back to the shop, they tested it and it is faulty.. so warranty claim. Guess I wont have a mobo for sometime..
Consider solved and I just burnt some money buying a spare proc which I think I wont be using also. haha.
Thanks for everyone who attempted to help me.

AMD Power Play states are glitchy, and not all videos detect and run with DirectX Video Acceleration. So max power during playback can end up on the highest power state which is not shown above.
MSI R5770 Hawk minimum power
The uP6204 power controller used on the MSI R5770 Hawk design nominally supports 0.5625 to 1.3500V in 0.0125V steps.
With a stock video BIOS, MSI Afterburner 1.50/1.51 allows the MSI R5770 Hawk to be soft-modded from 1.000 to 1.350V in the roughly 0.0125V steps.
The video BIOS can be set as low as 0.950V but with no steps between 0.950 and 1.000V.
MSI Afterburner 1.60 beta 4 or earlier adds the AllowCaptureVoltageDefaults profile setting. Acquiring, then changing the default GPU voltage allows "resetting" the Hawk to 0.950V in Afterburner for the highest frequency state. This allows maintaining Power Play transitions and running the max frequency at 0.950V, where Afterburner by itself is limited to 1.000V.
The max frequency state of the Hawk is 875 MHz 1200 MHz 1.200V. To have the most flexibilty on control the Hawk, lowest power in the Desktop/HTPC/light gaming, and the ability to manually overvolt/overclock for specific games: run the Hawk at 0.950V in the max frequency state.
How-to work around Afterburner and the Hawk design to run 1.000V in the max frequency state. *
1) in the video BIOS, leave the voltage as 1.200V in the BIOS--which is required for Afterburner to change the Hawk voltages in Windows
2) in the video BIOS, change the GPU frequency of that state to something less than or equal to the maximum stable frequency at 1.000V
3) in Afterburner, Reset to default settings **
4) in Afterburner, change "Core Voltage" to 1.000V
5) in Afterburner, Apply
6) in Afterburner, Save to Profile 1
7) in Afterburner, \Settings\Profiles\2D Profile\ & "3D Profile" choose "Profile 1" ***
8) on each Windows startup, run Afterburner

3) in Afterburner, confirm the voltage default setting for 0.950V--capture voltage defaults as needed using AllowCaptureVoltageDefaults mentioned above
4) in notepad as an Administrator (Win 6.x), change the Hawk's profile configuration file to 0.950V
example:
[Settings]
uP6204_Defaults=D7 20
5) in Afterburner, Reset to default settings **

* UnlockVoltageControl in the primary Afterburner profile's [Settings] will likely be needed.
** Only default profiles support Power Play states correctly.
*** Having a non-"default" profile in 3D results in the "3D Profile" activating instead of the UVD in the BIOS.

Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB GDDR5 on a 785GTM-E45 mainboard post prob

trying to install my Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB GDDR5 on my 785GTM-E45 mainboard and it wont post i disabled my internal card did every thing directions said to do. cleared my cmos still wont post. so i removed my pci e card and hooked my monitor back up to the main board and nwow that isnt posting grrrrr is there a jumper setting on my board that im not seeing to make my new card work. or how can i get my onboard vga to work agian

ok i got it to work and after about a minute running though my 650w power supply went BOOM so i went out and got a TX850 V2 power supply and it fired right up now im having a problem with hyper threading i see theres a way to adjust it in my bios just need to figure out what to adjust it to

Msi 785gtm-e45 Video issues

Hello everyone, hope you can help.
I have just changed from a Lanparty Jr series (due to a bios failure) to a Msi 785gtm-e45 motherboard. Everything is okay apart from running the graphics card which does not output any video. I first thought this was a bios setting so I tried setting the video default to pci-e, no change. I'm currently running on the on-board graphics (HD4200) with the 9600gt also inserted, the odd thing is that windows sees the card so I installed the latest drivers and tried again but still no change. The card is functional as I had it running not long ago in my previous machine. I have also tried resetting bios settings to default. I have searched for similar threads and found a couple although none come to conclusion to the problem. My PC specs are as follows:
- Athlon 64 X2 5600+ 2.9Ghz
- Msi 785gtm-e45 v1.4 running bios ver 8.8
- Corsair Ballistix Sport 4gb (2 x 2gb) DDR2 6400
- XFX Geforce 9600gt 512mb
- Hitachi HDP725050GLA360 500Gb SATA
- Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
- Corsair VX550W 550w (41A @ 12v / 30A @ 5v / 28A @ 3.5v)
Any help or advice is welcome.
Cheers.

Did you unplug your PSU from A/C power to properly >>Clear CMOS<< at any point after inserting the video card? If not, please give that a shot.

Compatability Q for a 785GTM-E45

I have a 785GTM E45 main board and im in the market for a new graphics card the one I seem to keep going back to is the SAPPHIRE VAPOR-X HD 4870 1GB GDDR5 PCI-E. So my Q is will it work with my 785GTM-E45? I know the ATI Radeon HD 4870 will work but it only has DVI outputs and i want the HDMI,VGA ,DVI options and the better cooling system of the Sapphire...... Also been looking at...Sapphire Radeon HD6970 2GB DDR5, Sapphire Radeon HD5670 1GB DDR3, and pretty much the whole sapphire vapor x hd series

We can't really comment or give recommendations on other competitors products here, after all this is an MSI forum.
But providing you have a powerful enough PSU (Power Supply Unit), those cards should work with no problems in your board.

Clarification on 785GTM-E45 Audio

Hi,
Maybe I'm not too sharp today -- perhaps someone can help clarify this for me with regards to the S/PDIF connector/header.
The 785GTM-E45 manual states:
S/PDIF-Out Connector: JSP1
This connector is used to connect S/PDIF (Sony & Philips Digital Interconnect Format)
interface for digital audio transmission to the HDMI graphics card.
So, is this an output or an input? The title says out, but the implication from the description is that it's an input, feeding the HDMI signal. I'm hoping out because my reciever does not have HDMI ports, so I'm using the S/PDIF with my current Asus board.

Thanks... had to read that twice -- lots of ins and outs
Since I'm using the onboard graphics, this is an out (regardless) to my receiver as I have now. Great!

Aftermarket Cooler for the 785GTM-E45?

I have a Zalman CNPS9700 NT low-profile cooler that I would like to use with a new-but-not-yet-installed 785GTM-E45.
This cooler works really well with my current Asus M2A-VM HDMI board and HTPC case. After looking at the new MB, it looks like the Southbridge heatsink is taller and closer to the CPU than is in my current configuration.
I'm going to give it a shot tonight, but was wondering if anyone had recommendations for a low-profile CPU cooler with this board in the event that the Zalman won't fit.
Thanks!

Good news! The Zalman I have worked well -- there is in fact more clearance than I had with my Asus board. Strangely, temps are cooler too, hovering around 26C and maxing in the mid 40's. Very happy!

MSI 785GTM-E45 BIOS CPU fan voltage control

Hello MSI gurus,
I've replaced the MB in an older HP media center with the MSI 785GTM-E45 running BIOS V8.8 out of the box.
CPU = Athlon 64 X2 4200+
My problem is the stock CPU fan has a 3 pin connection (voltage controlled) and is running at 100% speed all the time. From what I've read on the forums there are a number of people that have this issue (with other MBs with 4 pin cpu fan headers) and don't want to switch to a 4 pin CPU fan (PWM controlled). I am in the same situation.
I am hoping that there is a BIOS for this board that has an option to switch to or enable voltage control on the CPU fan header.
I have tried enabling the CPU smart fan target but no matter what settings I chose the fan remains at 100%. The H/W monitor of the MB indicates a CPU temperature (33C) well below the target (tried all options from 40C to 60C in 5C increments).
I have tried MSI's dual core center and it had no effect on the fan speed.
I have tried the 3rd party freeware SpeedFan and if had no effect on the fan speed.
I am not able to check if I have the latest BIOS or even find changelogs for existing BIOS verions because MSI seems to only direct BIOS downloads for this product to the Live update application. I have installed the live update program and it indicated V8.8 was the most recent veriosn of the BIOS for this board, although I have seen posts indicating the Live Update application is not to be trusted.
Dual core center, SpeedFan, and Live Update have all now been uninstalled.
I know the fan I'm using will change speed because I can connect a 3 pin fan controller and manually dial down the speed.
I know the BIOS can read the fan speed becase it correctly shows the RPM changes when I use the hardware fan controller.
Can anyone direct me to a BIOS version for this board (or some secret keystroke) that enables automated 3 pin voltage control on the CPU fan header?
Thanks in advance for your time.

For those who are interested I received the following answer from MSI technical support. Personally I find this to be a flaw in this board's design. I chose this MB to replace a dead MB in a HP media center for a friend. If I was buying this board for myself I likely would be using it as a HTPC because of the mATX form factor, HDMI on board, and backward compatibility for CPUs. However, due to the added cost of purchasing a new heat sink and fan I would be RMAing if I had bought it for myself. Considering many of the top performing after market coolers still come with a 3 pin fan it was a poor decision for MSI to not include support for automatic speed control of a 3 pin voltage controlled fan.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Thanks for contacting msi technical support team!
We are sorry that because of the circuit designs,we could not add cpu smart function for 3 pin's connector fan in the BIOS. The difference between 3pins and 4pins is that the second has a temperature controller but the first does not.We would suggest you utilize a 4-pin CPU Fan in order to control the CPU Fan speed.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused you!
