865P Neo2 LS USB2 problem (msi false publicity)

In the documentation, the Neo2 must have USB2, but all my USB ports are USB1.1
I m running WinXp Pro US + SP1, I have tried the Microsoft Hotfix Q816509 the last Intel INF update 5.0.2 but all didn't work.
I m very unhappy with MSI

I think I have find the problem, when I use the USB front panel connector of my case it freeze, but if I use another front panel connector it work. If I see the connection for my case front panel, all is connected correctly (red, white, green and black). Did you think there is the not good connected on the USB connector side?

Problem : MSI Motherboard PM8M3-V and RAM 2 GB

Hi all,
I am having a problem with my motherboard PM8M3-V and 2 Kingston 400 Mhz(1GB) 2.6v.
When I was using with 1GB memory ( 2x512 Kingston 400 Mhz 2.6v), it was working well. After I have extended to 2 GB(Put 1 more GB), it is restarting automatically (with blue screen) when the computer is a little busy. I have tested with both Windows XP and Windows 7. Both having same problem.
Please kindly answered me....
Can it be motherboard problem(MSI supports till 2GB) ?
Thanks

What about the memory voltage option? [2.6/2.65/2.7V?]
But it works fine with memory clock set to 166Mhz

MOVED: MSI P35 NEO2 FIS voltage problems!!

This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=120804.0

same problem with the Neo2 FR (like mine). After quite of bit of researching and testing i reckon that software can not correctly read the vRAM on these MSI boards. I found that Speedfan, Everest, and HardwareMonitor all gave an incorrect reading for my RAM's voltage. Also, if i increased the cpu voltage in the BIOS then the voltage monitoring programs would show an increase in CPU voltage and RAM voltage (even though i had not changed the latter).

MSI k8n Neo2 Platinium Stutter Problem

Hi
2 weeks ago I upgrade my system from AMD2500+ to AMD64 3000. And problems started. My first MOBO was k8t NEo2. I gave it back because of stutter. Everybody said that was PSU problem and I changed my PSU to TAGAN 480W and MOBO to MSI k8n Neo2 Platinium.
After a Fresh winXP install, SP2, nforce drivers and nvidia drivers. I test the system with Flight Simulator 9 and stutter is there
I tried lots of things. Uninstalled all pci cards. checked irqs, used pci latency tool no success.
Any ideas?

turn off any virus checker for a start
Theres a heck of alot of things that can cause stuttering..
turn off agp fast writes, turn off cool and quiet, turn off dynamic overclocking, ensure up to date gfx and platform drivers, ensure you are not overheating, what temps have you got on cpu and gfx?
do not run corecenter or any other background app that might have bugs in it, check the cpu usage of all running tasks, something might be spiking and causing stutter.
what drivers are you running with (list all)
is it only when playing networked or standalone too? what directx have you got installed? have you run memtest86 and checked your memory? are you overclocking at all? are you overclocking too much?
what are your benchmark scores for 3dmark 03? do they compare to others with similar spec?

MSI K8T Neo2 slow SATA problem

Hello members,
I do have a MSI K8T Neo2 mainboard with Via chipset. The board supports SATA 150. AFAIK this means it should support transfer rates up to 150 MB/s.
Now Ive bought a SATA3 SSD with over 500 MB/s. Because SATA 3 is downcompatible to SATA 1 its working so far.
The only problem is I expected 150MB/s but I do only get about 115 MB/s with benchmark programs like HD Tune and AS SSD Benchmark in sequential read.
I do have the latest drivers and bios updates but it seems MSI SATA controllers is very slow.
Can anyone help me getting it faster?

Thank you.
Does this mean in praxis I dont get 150 MB/s ?
Is this general or only MSI specific?

MSI P35 NEO2 FIR voltage problems!!

Let's start:
I have MSI P35 NEO2 FIR ,e5200,2 x Geil ultra plus 1066+,as us 2900CT,lcpower 6550g and...rest- not so important for my questions.
1.My problem is next: default voltage values for my RAM is ~2.2-2.4 every time I check in windows (speedfun,sisoft Sandra, everest..)shows me 2.0 or some time even 1.8v . When i change voltage in bios and went to win voltage on RAM is still unchanged (2.0v) .
Same thing happen with NB voltage. But CPU voltage I can change freely with no problem.
When I change fsb(try to overclock) suddenly memory voltage rises how i do not now , but only to 2.35 and no more.
Can anyone help me fix this problem because my memory is not stable at 2.0 or 1.8 sometimes and system crashes?
2.When i change cpu settings from 12.5*200 to (example)10*300 in windows even in system properties see that my current clock is 12.5*300=3750 and not 10*300=3000 like it should be .
Is it bios problem?
My bios version is 1.9.
Thanks!

News - BIG PROBLEM - MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum - DOES NOT POWER!!!

Hi to everyone.
I'm a proudly owner of a MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum that in one year gave me no problem until yesterday morning.
I used the computer in the night before and when I finished I turned it off and I went to bed.
Yesterday morning I found the power led blinking (like if the system was in standby), and there was no way to turn the PC on.
I even took off the battery for more than 12 hours and I left only minimal components installed:
the video card (Gainward GeForce 6800),
the psu (Antec TruePower 550W),
1 x 512 MB Ram Crucial Ballistix,
and I checked them into another computer and they work perfectly.
I tried shorting the MB power switch pins with a screwdriver and I've even tried to power on the system without the Memory or the Video Card... I've tried everything that came across my mind with no efforts!!!!
Every time I give power to the MB appens only that the power led starts blinking, but pressing the button the PC doesn't turn on.
PLEASE HELP ME... I really don't know what else to do!!!
Thanks,
Alberto

Hi thanks for the answers.
I do have a D-Bracket, but my problem is not that the system does not boot or does not post... my system DOES NOT POWER ON (!!!!), so d-bracket is useless!
When I plug the system power the only thing that happens is that the power led starts blinking (with the system still in soft-off), and if I press the power switch button nothing happens!
I've the bios for 7025 v1.8 and the settings where for OFF on power-loss ond pressing the button (can't rememeber if it was more than 4 sec) was meant to turn off the computer, but considering that I un-powered the pc more than once without the MB battery the settings should be factory default by now.
I went through the Windows-XP shut-down system, and i could not be an electrical problem as I always used the PC with a pretty good UPS unit.
Right now these are the full specs of my sytem:
- MB MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum nForce3 Ultra
- GAINWARD 6800 2600 GLH 256 MB Ram
- PSU Antec TruPower 550 W
- CPU AMD64 3500+ core Winchester @11*210 Mhz (this cpu has never overclocked very well)
- HEATSINK Thermalright XP-90 with a 12 Cm Enermax Fan (CPU temp in always below 55 °C when stressed)
- 1 x 512 Mb RAM Crucial Ballistix DDR400 optimized for MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum
I left only these things inside my computer in the hope that it would turn on... it did not work. I tested each component but the MB, and they work perfectly.
Again...
Thanks for you efforts, any help will be appreciated.
Alberto.
All parts have been tested: CPU/RAM/GFX/PSU/HD/DVD, just not the MOBO ?
Checked if the MOBO is shorting in the case ?
Have you tried using the reset switch as power, on/off switch ? I've seen before when the power switch stops working (lose/bad wire busted spring) after swapping reset to power, then the system turned on. Worth a try, as sending it back to USA won't be cheap. If its over 1 year old it mite not be covered by the re-seller and or MSI. Best to check this out as law and warranty is different from country to country.
Good Luck

Msi k8n neo2 54g platium problem

Hello again i foudn how to raid them, and now i got a new problem.
When i connect all my hdd's the computer goes blank in the winxp startup installation, just before i get to chose where to install winxp pro, i stoppes to respond, and that is when i load both driver's on the diskette, the raid and the storage driver that is, hope you guy's can help.
this is my sytem.
Msi K8n Neo2 54g Platium
Amd 64Bit 3500+
1024 Mb Geil Pc 4400
2*160 Gb sata Seagate
1*250 Gb sata Wd
1*120 Gb ide Maxtor
1*120 Gb ide Seagate
sony Dvd burner
before they werent raid'ed and every thing was ok, now i raid those 2 160gb seagate, and when all is connected, it stoppes to respond.

Don't know if this helps, but your getting it anyway
When installing windows don't have any Hard drives in front of your raid array, assuming that's where your putting your OS . Unplug them whilst windows is installed. This is due to the fact that windows places %systemdrive% as the first drive it sees (e.g 1'st master) , meaning it will be C: and hosts the os boot files .
(Taken from Syar2003)
Therefore if installing your raid on Sata 3/4 unplug all IDE Hard Drives plus SATA 2/3.
Once windows is installed Plug 'em all back in
Luck

MSI 865PE NEO2-V booting problems [Solved]

Hi. I've been building a new computer and am seeing some weird stuff.
System Specs:
-P4 3 GHz Socket 478
-MSI 865PE NEO2-V -V22 http://www.saveateagle.com/865pe-ne...EO2-V&ovtac=CMP
-128mb ATI Radeon 9800 pro
-120 GB Western Digital

-DRW 1108IM ¡V DVD+/-RW Drive
http://www.btc.com.tw/english/2-2-dvd_rw.htm
-Generic Floppy Drive (sentimental reasons )
The system seems to be running (ie no post beeps) but I'm not getting any signal sent to the monitor. I've tried running it out of the case with only the video card connected to the mobo, cleared cmos via battery and jumper settings, and the same thing still happens.
Anyway, I've been talking with other guys on another forum too, but we haven't gtten it to work.
http://www.techsupportforum.com/showthread.php?t=53044
I'm going to try clearing the cmos again because apparently the battery must be out for several minutes, whereas I roughly did one minute. If the mobo has no ram connected, there should be post beeps, right? If so, I better check the case speaker connection again.
Thanks for the help.

I tried removing my RAM and powering -suprisingly no beeps . So make sure its not a faulty RAM, try another one

MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum RAM problem

My spec:
AMD64 3000+ Venice
1gb RAM Elixir
1 x Maxtor 120gb IDE
1 x Maxtor 200gb SATA
1 x Maxtor 200gb IDE
ATI Radeon x800 pro 256mb
I have a K8N Neo2 Platinum motherboard, the problem is that when I try to add in another 512mb stick the system won't even boot up. I have tried other brands and amounts but still to no avail.
I boot the system up and the monitor won't even switch on, but if I take out the 512 stick it works fine.
Any ideas?

Not quite.
Use the color codes .
If you have matched sticks in density (size) and timings (spd data) you can run dual channel.
This means having one stick in memory channel 1 ( green ) and another in memory channel2 (purple )
Theese are physically wired next to eachother on the motherboard , from cpu and upwards..
You can not do that , with that mismatched modules the cpu can't initialize it's memory controller .
So your only choice is to run two modules with single memory channel config .
Use the colorcodes to make sure you use signgle memory channel config (since you have mismatched sticks and the A64 memory controller cant run those in dual mode)
So your choice is to use either both green slots or both of the purple ones .
Place the one module with the higest cas rating (slowest) in the green slot with the lowest slot number (marked on the board) .
And the other stick on the green slot that remains .

O.S: Windows 7 (SP1/Without SP) Ultimate / Hackintosh 10.5.8 / 10.6.8 / 10.7.3 / OpenSuse 11.2 / 12.1
Recently i decided to enable the sleep mode on my computer (because the power cost, my computer is all the time on).
So, i go to my bios and i change the suspend mode to S3. I boot my os (windows7) and i tried to sleep.
The system is going to sleep fine but nevers wakeup, the led of motherboard is flashing fast red-green-reg-green and after random time stops flashing, sometimes all are red and sometimes are all green!
Before post here i tried to fix the sleep and i read evert post.
I have try: Flash Bios to (1.8, 1.7, 1.2, 1.C, 1.A, 1.9), update all of my drivers including (lan, gpu, chipset), disconnect every usb includes keyboard (i tried with old ps2 keyboard), disconnect all pci cards, disconnect all RAM's (except one), i tried another Graphics Card (Gigabyte 8600GT), another PSU (Premier 400w), Bios Settings (ACHI/IDE, Recall GPU, PCI express x4, clear cmos), change DVI connector port on gpu, change to analogue RGB D-SUB, reinstall windows to ide disk/sata disk with S3 Enabled!
I tried to sleep from my Hackintosh 10.7 with the same error and with linux (openSuse) with the same error.
I have notice coz when i remove rams and i downclock the cpu and rams the leds are stop flashing in 2-3 secs (normaly tooks 10-40 secs)
Also the mb never wake with keyboard key press event!
Please experts, i need your help...

@NovJoe
Thanks for reply!
I have test with one piece of ram. also i tested with another cpu (Intel Celeron 1.6 - i cant remember the model).
My motherboard version is 1.2 (MS-7345 V1.2)
(i dont know if it helps but hibernation working really good! working on windows and mac)
before a hour i test to reprogram bios with floppy disk! first i destroy my bios (i edited with ami tools to corrupt and the mobo start the recovery process, i put a floppy with the last bios renamed to AMIBOOT.ROM and the recovery worked! but sleep not)
i dont want to talk with msi for a too old mobo, so if anyone knows whats is happen please help.

Win Xp Problem MSI NEO2 PE

Hi again everyone!
I finally made it up to a PC store to buy another CPU (P4 2.4 ghZ).
Just 1 more question I have....I installed everything fine, the computer begins to boot up, I get to the Windows XP screen asking me to select safe mode, normal mode, etc.
No matter what I pick, the system reboots.....any ideas on the problem?
I've checked the system temp, it doesn't seem abnormally high, although this is the first time I've used a real P4 (no Celeron). Currently it's at 40 degrees Celcius.
Any help would be appreciated...

Try going into the BIOS and set the Memory timings to SPD, then go to Frequency and Voltage page and set the DRAM (V-DIMM) voltage to 2.7, And also on this page set the DRAM frequency to AUTO...Save and boot, and see if that helps ...If not POST back and we will get you going by trying something else.....But you can do us a favour by making a signature(in profile) and list your system specs. As this will help us to help you all that much more ...PS. Congatulations on your Move to the BIG DOGS with the PENTIUM 4 .You will not be disapointed ...Sean REILLY875
