790gx-g65 with phenom quad cpu vin core voltage ?

Hi people I wonder some experts may be able to help me here ?
For weeks and weeks I have been struggling to get my PC to run correctly or boot into windows, I have a 3 boot system Vista,Seven and XP, and had always been using the windows 7 O/S until about three weeks ago when it failed to boot, I managed to get into vista, and XP so assumed something had become corrupt, but noticed XP verry sluggish to respond, and the mouse curser barely reacts, now vista also wont boot, and only accasionally will xp, I have run virus scans, and mailware scans, tune up programs on all drives, disconnected all but boot drive,and taken ram out one by one, but nothing seems to sort out the problem, today I noticed an amd overdrive tool that gives some system stats, and noticed that all my cpu cores run at arround 1 to 1.9 volts, but vin2 is at 154.88 volts, surely not ?, all tempretures appear ok, I'm hoping its a glitch of some type, but if not, how do I change it, or any ideas as to cause and what I may do to get my system back ?
System specs as follows:-
MSI 790GX-G65 790GX AM3 DDR3 VGA DVI HDMI 8 channel Blu-ray audio ATX Motherboard
AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition 3.2 GHz
Kingston 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1333MHz HyperX Memory Kit CL7 1.7V
Corsair Performance Series 128GB 2.5" SATAII Solid State Hard Drive
power supply came with case it says :-  500 watt, Raidmax amp ratings :- +3.3 = 28.0a   +5v = 38.0a   +12v = 22.0a   -5v = 0.5 a   -12v = 0.8a   +5vsb = 2.0 a
Graphics currently on board hd3300
I think thats about all that may be relivent, some help would be grately appretiated

 Yes to what Fredrik said about Raidmax, those things belong in a junk box not a PC box. $25 piece of garbage. Fredrik put it too mildly.
Maybe something like this: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/135514     Corsair TX650W

  • 790GX-G65 and Phenom II X6 1100t

    Hey!
    I wanted to know if my 790GX-G65 supports Phenom II X6 1100t?
    I tried the CPU support tool, but it didn't find any mobos that support it. So I don't think that tool is very up to date... According to the tool my mobo does support 1090t version thou, so if you jump to conclusions it might support 1100t too! :D
    Thanks for help!

    Interesting! I've been wondering this myself. The CPU Test Report is outdated. It only shows CPUs that test okay with the 790GX-G65 up to the v4.2 update. Version 4.4 is out, and still no update to the CPU Test Report for BIOS versions 4.3 and 4.4. I just contacted MSI about this, but I'm wondering since the "outdated" CPU Test Report doesn't show support, whether I'll get another "No"?

  • Diagnosing No POST, No Beep MSI 790GX-G65 with AMD Phenom X4 955 BE

    Last night I came home to a ceased PC with a frozen screen. PC has been working fine for over 2 years, but CPU has been running a bit hot of late (60C) with occasional BSODs with some ATI driver reference. Updated video drivers a few times. Suspected overheating CPU or ATI. Never overclocked it.
    Specifications:
    CPU: 3.2Ghz Quad-core AMD Phenom X4 955 Black Edition
    M/B: MSI 790GX-G65
    BIOS: Don't know. I upgraded it at one point.
    Memory: 4x 2GB DDR3 Apacer (2GB UNB PC3-10600 CL9). Don't have more info right now.
    Video: On-board.
    Hard-drives: 1x 500GB Western Digital (Removed)
    Peripheral Devices: PCI Wi-Fi card (Removed)
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
    PSU: ISO-500PP Switching PSU, Max Output 420W rated 23.0A @ 12V
    Symptoms:
    Black screen with blinking monitor LED (connected via DVI).
    All 5 blue M/B LEDs light up.
    No POST.
    No Beeps (connected PC speaker to JFP2 according to maunal)
    No peripheral activation, e.g. no keyboard lights / mouse.
    All funs run (incl. PSU fan).
    If USB keyboard is plugged in when powered, keyboard function LED lights up for a second, then dies.
    Suspected Causes:
    Broken CPU
    Broken PSU. It is the only component I skimped on with this system (420W), but I was saving money and didn't have a video card DVD drive or anything fancy connected. Worked great until now.
    Things I have tried:
    Left it overnight.
    Reseated CPU and heatsink (did not reapply thermal paste).
    Cleaned heatsink under CPU Fan.
    Removed PSU and M/B from case.
    Disconnected everything.
    Laid M/B on anti-static bag with only power supply and monitor via DVI cable.
    Removed all RAM. Starting produces no beeps from PC speaker (via JFP2). Suspect broken CPU.
    Some things I have not tried:
    A different PSU
    VGA output
    Different AM2 CPU (don't have one)
    New thermal paste
    Clearing CMOS and removing battery. Not sure how to do this (do I need to remove CMOS battery and hold clr CMOS button for 60s?)
    Since everything on the M/B lights up (incl. blinking Wi-Fi LED when it was connected), I suspect a bricked CPU.
    Where do I go from here?
    (edit: added keyboard LED symptom)

    @Fredrik:
    Yes, I tried with 1 RAM DIMM in different positions. I connected a PC speaker and my standard speakers via the audio jack (some new M/Bs apparently output to it). I don't have access to another compatible system to try my CPU on. Very infrequent thunderstorms.
    @cronnin:
    1. Placed M/B on unpainted wooden table. Good point about the anti-static bag - I forgot that it conducts. No change in symptoms.
    2. Everything is disconnected. I've tried 1 stick of RAM in different slots and connected a CRT monitor via VGA. No video out.
    3. I connected an old PC speaker to pins 2 and 8 of JFP2 and plugged in normal speakers via green audio jack on M/B. I can't get it to produce any sound whatsoever.
    4. FSB overclock switches are both ON.
    5. I pressed and held CLR_CMOS for 10 seconds while ATX power was connected and system unpowered. Didn't touch the battery.
    More Things I Tried:
    Used a multimeter to test my PSU ATX outputs on the board when powered on. I get a steady 12.35V, 5.2V and 3V at the M/B power connector. Starting to think the PSU is OK, but still can't be sure. If there was a lack of current, wouldn't the voltages start to break-down?

  • 790GX-G65 and Phenom II-955BE anyone else have this? no voltage options

    Hi I am new to this site...I have gotten this board and the CPU too...
    anyone else have this combo...?
    I booted it with a Athlon II-250 and all was great so i grabbed a 955BE and cleared the CMOS and proceeded to fire this puppy up...
    so far its booted everytime without a hitch...
    Only issue so far is ALL the voltage options are Grayed out...
    not sure which BIOS I have but I have DL'd the MSI USB tool and the latest BIOS so we'll see what happens...
    it boots at the default 200x16 but not anything more...
    hopefully a BIOS update lets me get the options to clock this puppy up some more...

    You can RMA all you like....but looking at the manual is far more interesting:
    The grey section reads:
    Quote
    PC Health Status
       CPU/ System Temperature, CPU FAN/ SYS FAN1/ SYS FAN2 Speed, CPU
     Vcore, 3.3V, 5V, 12V
     These items display the current status of all of the monitored hardware devices/
     components such as CPU voltage, temperatures and all fans’ speeds.
    The only mention of power I read here:
    Quote
      CPU Phase Control
    When set to [Auto], the hardware will auto adjust the CPU power phase according to
    the loading of CPU to reach the best power saving function.
    No mention anywhere about voltages....did you ever open the manual at all?
    Simply put, there are NO Voltage options in the BIOS, so RMA will give the exact same board with the same options.
    Check a manual before you buy or complain about a board, all info is in there.

  • 890GXM-G65 with Phenom II x4 960T

    As the title says, I would like to know if the two are compatible, since the 960T is not listed on the compatibility list for the mobo. I`m asking this because i`m having a hard time to find a 955, and as far as I can find near my home, the 960T is cheaper.
    What I know is that this mobo is compatible with the 1090T and the 955

    Also, can I use the forum's email to enter the MSI online costumer service?
    If not, where do I register?
    Simply enter your email address into the email box on the OCSS page. If you have not used OCSS before, it will ask you for a few details first. Then whenever you use OCSS again, just enter the same email address to access again.

  • 790GX-G65 worst experience of all time

    So here i was an avg gamer. The only game i ever played was Arma 2 That game was CPU intensive and could only max out at 31-35 avg FPS.
    My build specs were:
    MSI 975x platinum edition
    core 2 duo E6700 (2.66ghz OC to 3.10ghz)
    4gb ddr 2 ram 667mhz
    maxtor 250GB
    Antec Neo Power Blue 650 watt PSU
    ATI HD 4870 (Palit sonic dual edition) 512MB
    My friend showed off his gaming rig. 4gb ddr3 and AMD phenom II x4 945.. His benchmarks in Arma 2 were great. I had just enough money. so i sold my Mobo, cpu, and ram and bought the following:
    MSI 790GX-G65
    AMD phenom II x4 945 (95watt) (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103809&cm_re=phenom_II_945-_-19-103-809-_-Product)
    and G-skill 2x1GB DDR3 1333mhz
    500GB Samsung spinpoint f3
    I removed cleaned and properly installed everything... And this has been my experience so far....
    tried to boot from my old maxtor first just to test out my new cpu's power. had to change a few boot settings. when i got onto the logon screen BAM a gfx glitch (pink looked like a thumb print) and pc was completely unresponsive...
    i thought it was my gfx card (i had just rma'd the thing because of bad memory problems) so i couldnt believe it.. i quickly shut off to prevent further damage... to my surprise when i rebooted to bios, no gfx glitch. i figured it was the drivers.. my friend suggest i install windows 7 on my new spinpoint and start fresh..
    I spend 3 hours trying to install windows 7 because the disc would never finnish. it would freeze after the logo... i went back to bios changed a few things unplugged devices... finally i thought it was the new ram.. tried out both ram chips individually in dimm1 and dimm2 one by one to no avail. windows memory diagnoistics reported no problems. We finally managed to load it after we found out the OC switch on the mobo was on.. weird the CPU was running at 3.30ghz instead 3.0. But when the completing installation stage started windows the pc would just randomly reboot also causing the installation to be corrupted forcing me to try again and again and again
    So i put vista in, it finally installed but it would crash when "adjusting windows performance". This told me it was a hardware problem... me and my friend narrowed it down to the cpu/mobo. What fixed my problem was lowering the multiplier from default (x15) to x13. To our surprise i could finally logon to the new windows. My friend told me to instantly download prime95 and run a test to see what was going on.. Also to check CPU-Z and temps
    Almost instantly after hitting the start button in prime95 the pc crashed. So fast it felt like the start button was more like a "shutdown" button :O
    CPU-Z said that the cpu voltage was at 1.456 and avg around there... He told me it shouldnt be like that since his 945 avgs out at 1.3 or less
    Changing the bios "CPU Voltage" would make the pc not startup.. (screen would stay black) i couldn't even get into the bios. So i had to "clr CMOS" and try again.... and again.... and not ONE setting i tried for the "CPU voltage" was successful...
    Finally i installed windows 7 and would you look at that.. it installed. But anything higher than x13 muiltiplier would cause crashing in any programs... even sometimes starting CPU-Z would crash.. watching 1080P videos would crash... everytime everytime...
    and windows was so unresponsive at times with these weird stutters that lasted 1-3 seconds every 5 seconds. It was ridiculous. Why should i have to underclock my new cpu from the default values to 2.6 just to start my OS..
    We Tried everything buying new thermal paste reapplying thermal paste (6 times) changing coolers, i bought the best paste out there (artic silver 5) nothing...
    Finally changing the mobo to optimized defaults again and going directly to the "CPU Voltage" setting changing it to 1.284V my mobo booted without having to clear cmos. BUT HERE IS THE SHOCKER: temps where at 85C-90C range like 200F !!!!! i couldnt believe it.. so i shut off instantly and clrd cmos..temps dropped down again to the low to high 40's.
    Here i am now.. with an underclocked overvoltaged phenom II x4 945 edition barely able to run windows. My bios is updated to the latest wich is 4.10 and i dont know what else to do. Faulty CPU? doubt it. All i know so far is that my mobo is just sending waay to much power to my cpu causing the quick overheat and shut off. I've spent 5 miserable days since i got my new build trying to just run the default values. NOthing... so i'm contacting you msi guys and the people on these forums to please guide me. my last 5 days have been hell..
    Anyways my friend says my new cpu is not on the mobo support list which is true, but the other 945 is. not the new revision i have so maybe thats also a contributing factor....
    O and another weird thing.. sometimes i can play arma 2.. performance is not too good because of the hiccups, but it doesnt crash my pc.. Except when i tried to raise the cpu/fsb multiplier up to x14 it would crash sometimes.
    ANYWAYS please help me figure this out i dont understand all these experiences dont make sense to me.

    Well, this is the motherboard i have:
    http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1739&maincat_no=1
    I dont know how to check if its a "winkie" board.?
    Anyways. I can confirm that flashing the bios back to 4.0 did nohing for me.. Exact same results. I also changed my PSU and got exact same problem.
     So so far its not:
    Ram
    PSU
    Cooler (i'm pretty sure its not the cooler because i went from my antec cooler to reapplying paste on my antec to stock cooler to reapplying paste on stock cooler twice. After 4-5 times playing with the coolers and paste i'm pretty sure its not the Cooler/paste causing the issue.
    Quote
    And 97C isn't possible, the board should shutdown at about 70C.
    I gurantee you this is what the motherboard monitoring stated.
    yes 45C isnt good i know that. And i cant seem to do anything about it. The weird thing is the first test run the temperature was at high 30's second try with reapplied paste bios said temperature was at the low 20's (21-23C) But as i booted OCCt temperatures readings said 70C which made no sense to me.
    So i finally put the stock cooler and so far all the readings have been in the 43-47C range. Except for that one time i changed the "Cpu Voltage (V)" to 1.2840 which btw was the highest setting possible in the bios and caused my readings to go off the chart at 97C range. I can confirm doing this over and over will give me same results. All the higher settings are in red or "Not recommended" and also force the mobo to not boot. 1.2840V is the only setting that i can change aside from auto that will alow my mobo to reboot. And its also the highest thats not in the red zone
    I'm now able to get on with you guys because the multiplier is at 13X and temps in OCCT AND mobo are conistent with one another reading at 45-47C.
    My friend is suggesting me to get a new mobo but before i do i want to know if it's really the motherboard or the cpu... I bought this cpu last week and i can still RMA it if thats the problem.

  • 790GX-G65: Freeze, IDE issue

    Hi,
    my 790GX-G65 worked well for ~2 weeks. Problems started then.
    1. For some reason, no IDE devices are shown nor accessible in Win XP (SP3, fresh install). This occurred after BIOS update from 1.1 to 1.3. BUT the BIOS sees the IDE devices, and I can boot Linux from that CD drive.
    I can see the AMD PCI IDE controller (v5.1.0.8) and also the secondary channel (MS driver, v. 5.1.2600.2180) with settings for DMA etc. The HDD is master, CD/DVD is slave.
    Going back to BIOS 1.1 does not fix this problem.
    The ATI SB driver (Catalyst 9.6) was installed, but after de-installation it is the same: no IDE drives.
    2. More headaches:
    Since 1 week the system freezes randomly, when running BOINC (at ~75% load, 2 cores). Today it has not freezed, BOINC was off.
    Other symptoms:
    -prime95 states calculation errors
    -memtest86 sees some errors, but could also run for some hours without error
    So, I changed the mem settings to 2T: Freezes. Changed CL from 9 to 10: Freezes.
    Memory is GEiL 4GB, 9-9-9 (2 modules, in slots 1&2), Value PC3-10600(DDR3-1333). It is not listed in the provided PDF for the board, but it should work.
    CPU is Phenom II 705e (3 cores).
    The board is not OC. All settings in BIOS is on defaults (except some settings mentioned above). QnC is on.
    All is as it should be (HT speed 2000, bus speed 200, CPU 2500, core voltage jumps up and down)
    PSU is a new Enermax 82+, 385W. Should be sufficient; I am using the onboard grafics (sideport only).
    All temperatures are mostly below 40 deg C, and currently 27 deg C, without BOINC.
    Any ideas? What to return? Board? Mem? CPU?
    What else could I try?
    ALL hints welcome...
    BR, cooper2k9.

    And who created IO-meter and AHCI?
    I believe the same company that pushes it.
    As all other benchmarks show better results for IDE, test with ATTO or HDTune.
    Hi Bas,
    I am aware that intel made IOmeter. And supports AHCI.
    Quote from: Bas on 11-July-09, 00:47:47
    That's not a lot, should be way above 40MB/sec.
    I don't care about numbers, just directions - in this case.
    Results of HDTune Pro, on my C:\ drive (500GB ST, NTFS), results for read access:
    AHCI:IDE
    Min Transfer [MB/s] 53.3:19.8
    Max Transfer [MB/s] 109.7:109.6
    Avg Transfer [MB/S] 86.2:82.8
    Access time [ms] 12.5:12.5
    Burst rate [MB/s] 132.7:125.0
    CPU usage [%] 8.2:11.1
    Pretty accurate tool, imho!
    The tendency of both lines over the disk are quite the same, except more spikes downwards with IDE.
    CPU usage surprises me.
    Have a nice evening
    cooper2k9.
    BTW: My system seems stable now, with RAM speed @ 1066MHz.

  • MSI 790GX-G65 Hangs when loading windows

    Specs:
    Corsair 650W PSU (New)
    MSI 790GX-G65
    AMD Phenom II - Deneb 810 2.6 GHZ with XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 Heatsink(New)
    GeForce 260gx(Not in board at the moment)
    4x1gb SuperTalent 1333ghz DDR3
    500GB Seagate (used to be an external)
    64GB Crucial SSD (New, no OS)
    I bought my computer in July 2009 and have had a reoccurring problem where, at any random point, my computer would completely lock up causing me to force shut down.
    At first I thought it was a power supply so I replaced that and the problem persisted. Usually I would be on my computer, it would hang and I would restart it and everything would be fine for the rest of the day. Some days it wouldn't hang at all and run perfectly fine. I thought that maybe it was a heat issue so I've had my case open with a box fan sucking air out it. I just recently bought a new heat sink for my CPU to sure up any doubt.
    Last weekend, I attempted to do some more troubleshooting and updated my BIOS, but my computer really didn't like it. Now it will not boot Windows after POST. I cleared CMOS and tried again but the same issue would occur. I would get into the Windows loading screen and the computer would lock up or it would make it to the login screen but would restart.
    I considered the possibility that my HDD, being an old external, might have been the problem so I just recently purchased a new SSD. Last night I plugged in the SSD and in my attempt to load Windows on it, it would completely lock up the same exact way. I've narrowed it down to either being the SATA cables or the SATA connectors to the motherboard.
    The two SATA cables that I am using are a bit old. One of them I found in my cable drawer and don't know how old it is or what the gb/s rating on it is. The other cable came stock with the MoBo and I've been using that one since the rig was built. I am going to buy some new SATA cables tonight and try again, but would it be that the motherboard SATA connectors are faulty or something? I was about to buy a new Motherboard but this one is POSTing fine and reading all of my hardware. What other issues could there be? Any help would be very much appreciated.

    I was reading about how to install the >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<.
    It's saying in step 3:
    Quote
    If your MSI Retail Board is properly detected and you have pressed the >OK< button in the message box, an option box will pop up that allows you to choose between three different operating modes.
    I came across this FAQ:
    Quote
    ->Q: Can I prepare USB stick in another mainboard?
    A: * If you want to use method 3 it will not be possible, since Tool will detect different MSI board which uses a corresponding different BIOS.
        * If your other mainboard is retail MSI, yes you can.
    My current system is unusable which will mean that I'll have to install and create the USB flasher on a laptop that doesn't have a MSI MoBo. Will it still work?

    DUDE, I took the overclock on when you said tooo..
    I put it back to Fail Safe mode in the BIOS and it still dumps.
    So what is your suggestion,,,, no overclock? I am fine with that,, but can you clue me in on what the problem "might be" ?

  • Flickering with Onboard Graphics on 790GX-G65

    Hi Everyone,
    I recently put together my own AMD based machine and am very happy with it. It's the first desktop I've had since I switched to a laptop for uni in 2004 :D.
    The problem that I'm experiencing is that whenever the UAC window pops up, there is some flickering (Almost like static in an old video tape). Worse, it sometimes (Very rarely) happens even when the UAC window is not there :(. Has anyone else experienced this same problem? I did a quick search in this board before posting this and I haven't found anything similar. I have already tried the monitor with another machine (My laptop) and it does not show the same issue. It seems to me to be a problem with the on-board graphics card. I'm trying to get a DVI cable to try connecting the monitor that way. Any help would be much appreciated.
    Here is some more information on the computer:
    CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 3.2 GHz
    Motherboard: MSI 790GX-G65, MS-7576, AMI Bios 1.3
    RAM: Kingston ValueRAM DDR3 1333 MHz 2 GB x 2 sticks (KVR1333D3N9/2G)
    Video Card: None (Using onboard graphics)
    Hard Drive: Samsung Spinpoint F3 1 TB 7200 RPM SATA (HD103SJ)
    Wireless LAN Card: D-Link DWA-510 Wireless G PCI WLAN card

    @websherpa: different board, start your own topic. Do not hijack this one.
    Actually, I will post elsewhere if necessary, but I respectfully submit that I did NOT intend a hijack. I did not ask readers to find a solution to my particular problem. I indicated that I have a very similar problem and am seeking a solution through experimentation.  My solution may help this users issue.  I think it's likely a problem that's not entirely board specific (since I have found numerous posts about this very same issue with onboard Radeon chips and Windows 7 and x64) and therefore an understanding of a solution for any one set-up or combination may result in a solution for all. I provided system information solely to indicate whether there is some common causality.   I think it's only really appropriate for the original author to determine whether a post is off topic or not unless a post is obviously way off base (your mileage obviously differs).
    My appologies to lohita if you think I was trying to hijack your post.  I was simply trying to contribute to see if there is a common cause.

  • AMD X6 1090T problems with 790GX-G65 Board

    I've been tinkering at this for a week now and I really don't know what to do at this point. I just got the AMD Phenom II X6 1090T and tried it in an MSi 790GX-G65 mainboard. I can't seem to get a clock speed beyond 804Mhz. A PerformanceTest benchmark for this CPU is currently 1856 (when it should be between 6500-7000).
    The question I have is this. Is there anything I can do in the BIOS manually to bring the CPU settings to where their supposed to be?
    In the BIOS, the CPU ratio is set to auto and the adjusted frequency reads 2300. When I set the multiplier to x16 (adj freq. 3200), there's no difference in either the operating speed or benchmark performance. What can I do? What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks for the response, TN
    I'm running BIOS v4.0. I hear there's a 4.15, but I haven't been able to install it.
    I called MSi Tech support and asked how I could get an update and the person on the phone sent me a beta version. But it's not x64 friendly, it seems. Maybe I did something wrong. But the CPU does work with the board. I just needed to manually set the ratios and voltage levels. I was able to do it with AMD overdrive.

  • 790GX-G65 Phenom II 550 Overclocking BSOD

    Ok so this is my 1st post here so forgive me if i don't get it correct.
    My system is:
    MB - 790GX-G65
    Bios v1.6 11302009, I have turned off quiet n cool, spread spectrum, and CPU C1E State, (these are the only settings i changed in bios besides boot sequence and splash screen).
    CPU - Phenom II X2 550
     3.939Ghz (19.5 multiplier, 1.5v cpu core, 1.52v vdd cpu core, 1.3v cpu nb, fsb 202, temp never got past 55c under load)
    RAM - OCZ reaper(12800) 2x2Gb 1600
    6-6-6-18 1T 1333 1.71v
    Vid - (2) Sapphire 4850 1gb
    (Stock OC from Sapphire) 625Mhz gpu, 993Mhz ram
    HD - Sata samsung 500Gig
    DVD - LG IDE DVD +-Berner
    PSU - 700w OCZ Stealth Extreme
    Mouse/Keyboard - Logitech MX518, Logitech wireless keyboard+mouse
    Fans - I have 7 120mm Yate Loon (93 cfm), and 1 200mm coolermaster (150 cfm)
    Case - Coolermaster HAF 922
    OS - Windows 7 Ultimate X64
    Now, onto the issue.  The setup i listed above seems to be stable, I ran Everest Ultimate Edition v5.30's stability test for over 5hr's without a problem.  So i thought it was all good, well turns out i was wrong.  So I shut down the stability test and was surfing around on the net for a couple hours, watching movies, posting on forums, ect, then wham! i get a BSOD.  I restart and look at my Event Viewer and see Critical: Kernel-Power 41 (63), so i do some looking around on google and find that this error can be cause by anything from drivers to hibernate.  I turned off hibernate in windows and updated all my drivers and restarted.  It seemed ok again for a couple hr's and then the bsod came back.
    Did some more research and then disabled RacTask in the Task Scheduler, Changed my hibernate size to 100% (powercfg/hibernate /size 100), Ran a filecheck (sfc/scannow) nothing was found.  Restarted after all of that, played around for a couple of hr's then the same BSOD kernel-power 41 (63)
    I thought it might be my memory or timing, the stock timing is for 7-7-7-24, 1600, 1.7v and i have mine at 6-6-6-18, 1T, 1333, 1.7v.  So i set my CPU back to its stock settings (3.1Ghz, Auto voltage) and did a windows ram test after startup.  The test said that everything was ok.  I have been running Everest for 11hr's, so i'm fairly sure that my memory is ok and not causing the bsod.
    Can anyone tell me what else to do to get rid of this kernel-power issue?  Bios settings, Windows services, tricks i'm willing to try just about anything atm.
    Thanks in advance.

    Nope, i unplugged the bad hd and still getting the error...
    Figured i'd keep this updated if anyone else has this problem.

     Hello , Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel. I read your post about the BIOS, and wanted to assist you! The blank screen and blinking of your Caps Lock, is the system trying to give you the error code for the issue your notebook is having.  You can review the following document for further assistance, if needed:HP Notebook PCs - Computer Does Not Start and Emits an LED or Beep Code Please note the blinking sequence of your Caps Lock, and follow the instructions in the document above.  From the information that you provided, it is possible that the blink code will be related to a BIOS error.  You can always try performing a System Restore, to set the notebook back to a previous working point. You can also try checking this site for BIOS drivers. Once there, you can select your Operating System and click "Update", you should be able to access and download the  BIOS drivers.  If you downloaded the latest driver from that site, try uninstalling the driver and installing the previous version. Please let me know if this information was helpful by clicking the thumbs up below.
    Have a great weekend!

  • 790GX G65 Firewire and USB problem

    I've m-audio firewire 410 sound card and cubase5 (has a usb dongle to work)
    before this mainboard I was using K9A2 platinium V2 and Amd 9950  cpu everything was working perfectly
    now I've upgraded my board (as you see) and bought a AMD 955
    now when I install the sound card driver it's making somekind of digital distortion and also the sound is moving to faster or slower (all the time) so I'M hearing funny voices
    The Cubase5 Usb dongle is having some connection problem. It force me to change the usb port everytime I start cubase
    I've updated my bios but guess what.... They're still with me.
    Please some help
    I'm using Vista home premium 32, I've tried it on Xp and windows 7 64 RC7100   the resoult is always the same

    Are the energy settings properly configured for USB and the CPU?
    Could be Cubase doesn't like Cool & Quite?
    Can Cubase work with quad-core?
    Can the powersupply handle everything?
    What is in your system, we don't know much: >>Posting Guide<<
    Read the guide this time.
    My system is
    MSI 790GX G65 , AMD 955 BE, Corsair 1600 MHZ 4 GB (TW3X4G1600C9D) , 6 HDD (one is IDE),  ZOTAX 9800 GTX+, 750 watt PSU(corsair TX750W)
    I've some pci card for my music buss. but i didn't install them yet. Not before everything works fine
    Cubase works fine with quad core , my ex-system was a quad core. 
    the problem with cubase comes this way. I turn on the pc (dongle is on all the time) start cubase and get the message "Connection problem with dongle change the usb port) after I change it everthing works fine. infact I'm not making cubase problem a big deal. my real problem is firewire.
    About the energy settings, I didn't change anything on mainboard, why do I need to change the power settings for usb? aren't they standart?
