875P NEO-FIS2R - ICH5R Raid 0 options

I have a Raid 0 configuration with dual Raptor drives on a 875P NEO-FIS2R . I was wondering if people have suggestions of what options I should have enabled through the bios (rev 1.8). Since the options don't mean much to me I played with the setting till the Raid option was enabled in the bios screen.
There are setting like Native vrs Legacy, SAT/PAT/SAT+PAT, and various channels.
Any help would be apprieciated, but best of all would be a website where the options are explained.

Native
SATA Only
PATA Keep Enabled - Yes.
PATA Both channels enabled
SATA as RAID - Yes.

[875P Neo Series] 875P NEO FIS2R - Bootup delay with disk attached to Promise RAID

Hi,
I have a problem with my 875P NEO FIS2R mobo. I just added a 400GB SATA RAID-0 array to the Promise controller and now I get a 50 second bootup delay after the BIOS has run through everything and beeped and before the first WinXP splash screen.
I boot up from a 160GB SATA RAID-0 array on the intel ICH5R controller. Both arrays work fine from within Windows. I have two DVD drives on the ICH5R PATA connection but nothing else on the Promise.
If I disable the Promise controller in BIOS the delay goes away.
I have tried disabling SMART, turning off the quick-boot option with no effect.
When I first installed my system I tested performance with booting from a single SATA drive on ICH5R vs Promise and I noticed the same issue, but didn't care then because I only needed one disk so I just kept Promise disabled in BIOS.
Any ideas how I can get around this?
Regards,
Jonathan

Sorry I have been a away for a few days.

If the Promise controller was out of the picture (Disabled), and you have the SCSI adaptor and its devices setup:
1. What is the adaptor's SCSI ID?
7
Quote
2. List devices, position in the chain and their corresponding SCSI ID's.
#7 Adaptec 2930CU card
#4 Nikon Coolscan LS30 scanner
#3 Umax Astra 1220S scanner
#5 Iomega ZIP 100 drive
Quote
3. What type of terminination are you using?
Adaptec card has auto-termination.
ZIP drive has a termination connector attached.
Quote
4. Are the devices in the chain functioning properly?
Yes.

I agree that your problem is your SCSI controller. There may not be anything actually wrong with it. The 2930 was an agressive controller card and its BIOS simply may not coexist with your motherboard's BIOS optimally. Even with the BIOS disabled, it may be competing with the motherboard's request for handlers.
You may want to check to see if there is a BIOS update on Adaptec's website. Adaptec usually released 1 or 2 updates for each SCSI generation they produced. It may or may not help but we need to make sure you have the latest BIOS released.
Unfortunately, this card cannot be reflashed.
Quote
At any rate, I think you have found the component which is responsible for the delay. I'm willing to assist in diagnosing the issue but I need you to provide the specific information I'm requesting.
Also, try to do a CTRL-Pause to catch exactly what the BIOS version is and any other information which is showing up with the BIOS disabled. The SCSI adaptor BIOS, in fact, should not be enabled in your SCSI configuration as you have described thus far.
Adaptec AHA 2930CU SCSI BIOS v1.34.1.
There seems to be a difference between BIOS and host adapter BIOS. You always get the BIOS screen, but you can disable the host adapter BIOS if it is not required.
I am pretty sure it is not the SCSI chain that is wonr because the pause happens with nothing connected to the card.

875P Neo FIS2R-Slow boot with Raid on Intel + Raid on Promise

Hello all.
Here is the configuration I'm trying to set up (and almost did)
SI 875P Neo FIS2R,MS-6758 BIOS v2.4
P4 2.6 GHz HT
500W 6fan total
2x1G Kit DDR 400
2x74 G WD Raptor Raid0 (Intel S1-2) Win XP inst
2x36 G WD Raptor Raid0 (Promise S3-4)
GeCube X1600Pro
DVD-RW (IDE 2 )
Win XP SP2 (All latest updates installed)
I followed the instructions as they are listed in the sticky (great job btw) and configured the 2 SATA 74G WD Raptor on Intel Raid controller(serial1&2) as Raid0 and install WindowsXP Prof sp 2 on it.
Then I configured the 2 SATA 36G WD Raptor on Promise controller(serial3&4) as Raid0 and added this Raid to the existing WindowsXP installation.
This set up is working very good once I'm logged into Windows with no problems at all.
The glitch is that I need 3 min waiting time till I see the windows loading logo.
I have all the latest drivers installed also IAA and INFs and my bios is as the default values except the changes mentioned in the sticky
Onboard Promise IDE - as Raid
ON-Chip IDE Configuration:
Native Mode
SATA Only
Keep SATA Active - Yes
Keep PATA Active - Yes
PATA Channel selection - Both
Configure SATA as Raid - Yes
I did the Win XP installation twice till now, taking care to install INFs and drivers in the right order but the result is the same...3-5 mins till I have a fully operational windows environment and after that all is running like a dream.
Now, I've searched in the forum and saw that many more people have the same problem but never read the solution to it, so if someone has ever found the way to solve this or has the same configuration please tell me how he did it. Even if someone knows that it can't be solved just drop me a line telling me so. Altough the system is running smoothly I find the 3 min waiting time unacceptable and frustrating. I've run out of ideas so please help me.
Thanks in advance

Hello Blazer and thank you for replying.
Answering one at a time...
are both raid arrays setup with the same stripe size?--> Yes Both arrays are configured at 16k stripes
do you see both the intel and the promise bios setup screens?-->Yes both screens (Intel(R) RAID... and Fast Built (tm) ...)appear almost instantly after MSI's logo screen showing my Raid arrays in Normal status. The delay starts after the Promise's screen till the Windows Loading logo screen.
how is the raid bootable drive identified in the boot from menu?-->
Boot Device Priority:
1st BBS-0 (Raid): Intel <name> (---> this is the OS drive on Intel controller)
2nd Disabled
3rd Disabled
Try other boot devices NO
I have also the option to select the the Drive on Promise which shows as BBS-1 (Raid) FT 378 Ary 1 but I have left it out cause it doesn't have the OS on it.
is the OS drive labeled as C: and seen as 200GB drive [as one] from the four drive array]--> No as it shouldn't cause these are two different Raid Arrays. The first Raid on Intel's controller with the 2x74G WD Disks indeed shows as one C: 137 G and has the OS on it. The second on Promise controller with 2x36G WD Disks also shows as one D: 70G.These are two separate Arrays with 2 disks each and they show as indented.
is network boot enabled causing a delayed boot?--> I don't quit understand what you mean. In case you mean what happens if I unplug the 2 disks from the promise controller then yes if I do that the system boots fast in the Windows even if I leave the Bios setting "configure promise as raid"!!!
My problem is similar with this post: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=69994.0

875P Neo FIS2R drive& bios settings help!!

Greetings guys.
Newbie here?
Would someone be so kind as to help me set up the following, using W2K as OS on the 875P Neo FIS2R board with P4 3.06 processor 2x512mb ram with a radeon 9700 and onboard sound, all the drivers etc are installed from the CD but am still using bios V1.2, not flashed it yet.......
I want my set up to be the following but I am having problems getting all my drives on the right chipsets.
IDE1= 1x120gb WD drive and 1x60gb drive for storage
IDE2= Sony DVDR
ICH5R to be 2x37gb WD SATA individual drive not raided on ser 1&2
Promise to be 2x37gb WD SATA as raid 0 for my OS
but I cannot work out the Bios settings and how to acheive what I want, assuming it is possible to do it this way.
Yes I know the quantity of drives is OTT but I did a good deal with a local shop in exchange for the 4x37gb SATA HDD's
Please make it simple, it takes ages to sink into my head...

make sure the "AS raid" option is enabled in BIOS under intergrated peripherals then on-chip conf.
that should handel the promise controller.
then you will need to read the manual to manually set each conf listed.
pg 3-24
these settings may do it:
ATA config set to P-ATA+S-ATA
S-ATA set to enable
P-ATA set to yes
P-ATA set to Both
Combined mode depends on where you install OS: suggest SATA
if that, then S-ATA 1st ch.
S-ATA RAID set to no
try this,let me know

Is the 875P Neo-FIS2R a bad mb?

Like the title says:
Is the 875P Neo-FIS2R a bad motherboad? I can understand that tis is a place where you will find more problems then anything else. But I mostly see motherboard specific problems, that occur on many mb's of the same type. I find that a bit disturbing...
A friend of mine never had any troubles with it, then again, he might not tell me, or he is lucky. But based on his 'good' experience I have a 875P lying here right now.
I cannot use it yet since I am missing a graphic card to go with it, I expect that to arrive next Tuesday. Im a bit nervous now.....
Another question while I'm at it: will both controllers (the Intel and the Promise) work, or are the mutual exclusive. So I guess I mean is: do I have 3 P-ATA connectors on my mb or either 2 or 1??
If it is the latter option, that would be lame, then I would have to insert my PCI card with a pomise controller....

I have to say the 875P is definitely NOT a bad motherboard as long as you have approved components. It works very well for "standard" usage. It has all of the top features from Intel - 875P chipset, 10Gbit CSA, ICH5R, ADI audio, firewire, etc.
I am concerned with some things MSI could/should have done better in the first place:
1. Wrong NB temp (and it seems to be affected by NBFAN)
2. No SFAN speed monitoring though it wouldn't have cost more to put it in ... X(
3. Slow frequency of BIOS release or update fixes vs other "top tier" motherboard manufacturers
4. More issues than others with popular memory modules
5. Confusing or "poorly documented" BIOS features/interface leave tweakers less in control
6. Corecell, DOT & MAT, BIOS are still a work in progress
When you start looking for topnotch performance and stability via tweaking OR major overclocking - that is where it falls short - contrary to what their marketing says.
Read this thread where an 875P owner compares his new Asus P4C800E Deluxe (after his 875P Neo failed and had to go for RMA). I summarize his "review" here:
Quote
Criteria on MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R vs ASUS P4C800E DeLuxe
Ease in setting up P4C800E
Memory compatibility P4C800E
Overclocking
- setting options Neo
- higher performance P4C800E
- lower temperatures P4C800E
- lower voltages P4C800E
Video card compatibility Neo
Hard drive performance Same
Benchmark scores Est. 5% better on Asus vs MSI
Extra Goodies:
ASUS - ability to use USB ARMD devices and emulate them as floppies, HDD, and even CD-ROM
MSI - AUTO overclocking (Captain, etc. on the Neo boards - 5%, 10% etc on the Asus boards) works much better
quote:
... the Asus is much less of a problem child when setting up. So my final ruling is, don't expect much more from the ASUS board, but if you are fed up with your 875P Neo, or are returning/RMA-ing your board anyway, you might be pleasantly surprised with what the ASUS P4C800/E/Deluxe can do for you.
I think you'll find similiar comparisons from 865PE Neo2 users who had tried the P4P800...
So far many have said they're still keeping their MSI boards when RMA comes back
Conclusions:
- Good HW but FW/SW satsifactory~needs_improvement. :]
- If you don't do major tweaking , and want stability + full features, the 875P is a GOOD board overall, IMHO. 8)

875P neos fis2r IDE 3 Question

I have a raid 0 setup on the promise SER3 and SER4 connectors=sata
I also have a normal IDE 80 gig that I use for internal music and such. It is alone, no slave with it.
It was connected to IDE1, but it is soo crammed in there that I decided to move i down below by the SER 3 and SER 4.
My cdrom and dvd are master slave on IDE2.
So, when I boot up, my 80 gig on IDE3 is not detected, nor shows up in disk manager.
How to get it to "notice" it?
I also have an external esata 500 gig on ser1.
Any Suggestions?

Thanks for responding Leekh
the mobo 875p neo fis2r has 3 ides. 1 and 2 are next to eachother, then the floppy A next to those.
side by side. IDE 3 is down below-(yellow) next to ser3 ser 4 1st generation sata connetors.
I Have cdrom/dvd as /master slave on IDE1,
I moved my 80 gig-xtra drive to IDE 3.-because it was a crammed fir in IDE2.
my OS is setup on c drive raid 0 with 2x150 gigs via the ser3and ser4 mentioned above.
to better clarifysee page 2-18 of the manual
IDE1 blue IDE 2 white
here is a pic IDE3 is yellow,
to clarify my whole system.
my os is on raid0 on the connectors below the yellow. I have one esata 500 gig connected to the bottom orange, ABOVE the yellow. the other one is unoccupied.
I switched an internal HD from IDE2, to IDE3 (yellow above)-and I cannot get it detected for some reason. I do not know if it is a bios config or not, I go in there,look for 2 secs, and wanna runaway crying to my mommy.
I copy and paste a review part here.
" Like all motherboards with an 875P/ICH5(R) chipset combination, there are two Serial ATA connectors located next to the ICH5 South Bridge (ICH5R in the 875P Neo-FIS2R's case). As you may or may not already know, this new South Bridge controls both SATA connectors and in fact allows a stream of 266MB/s of data instead of the slower, PCI bus constrained 133MB/s which can get awfully clogged with having to attend to other needy components. Read through our 875P chipset review to understand the benefits of placing the Serial ATA controller in the South Bridge as opposed to a separate PCI Serial ATA controller.
" We are very pleased to see that the 875P Neo-FIS2R contains exceptional IDE/Serial ATA drive support. As is always the case there are two standard IDE connectors, dubbed the Primary and Secondary IDE connectors, which support two channels each or up to four IDE drives total.
The 875P Neo-FIS2R's Promise PDC20378 controller powers the third IDE controller on this motherboard, and is capable of supporting exactly two IDE drives. This same Promise PDC20378 controller also powers two Serial ATA connectors in addition to the two ICH5-bound Serial ATA connectors. You'll be able to connect one drive to each of the four SATA connectors powered by the ICH5 and Promise SATA connectors. So in total, you'll be able to connect four SATA and six IDE drives to this motherboard, which equals a grand total of ten possible drives that can be connected to this motherboard. As we said in our ASUS P4C800 Deluxe review, most desktop users will find this feature to be nice instead of necessary; but there will always be those who desire this capability for something a little more potent than desktop usage.

875P NEO FIS2R board

I've recently tried to purchase the 875P NEO FIS2R motherboard but when the board arrived it was the FISR version not the FIS2R version which I ordered. I promptly returned it to the supplier as the FISR is in my opinion a lower specification as it doesn't have the same Raid capability and is not what I ordered. However, the supplier is telling me that MSI no longer make the FIS2R board and the FISR he supplied is the model that MSI has replaced the FIS2R with. I find this difficult to believe and suspect the supplier is trying to rip me off. Can anyone shed any light on this? When I check the MSI website the FIS2R is still featured but I'm having great difficulty sourcing one.

I wouldn't buy this board... many people are having serious issues with it.
This is not true. You can't base your opinions on a board by what you read in a forum. Remember that the majority of people come to a forum because they have a problem. Sometimes it is the board, but as often as not it is because of something else. Most people posting are do it yourselfers and need a forum to learn how things go together and don't go together. Most shops assembling computers have the luxury of spare components for testing and lots of past experience.
MSI sell millions of boards annually. The forum doesn't get hundreds of thousands of new users, so I think it is more appropriate to say a few people have issues, not many.

Is PXE network booting supported on 875p Neo FIS2R?

Hi all,
I have spent a full day trying to get my computer to boot via PXE from a remote server. My computer is equipped with an MSI 875p Neo FIS2R motherboard.
relevant stats are as follows:
Motherboard: MSI 875p Neo FIS2R
Ethernet Card: Integrated on Motherboard (Intel 82547EI (CSA Interface Gigabit LAN))
The PXE server to which I am trying to connect is running Windows 2000 Server and is configured with Windows Remote Installation Service. The server has been tested with another pxe client (my laptop) and I am able to boot over the network succesfully. It looks like everything is configured properly on the server side.
I am using the msi motherboard's Intel 82547EI integrated ethernet controller when attempting to connect to the server. I do not have another PCI ethernet controller that I can try as an alternative.
I could not find any mention of network booting in the boot sequence section of the BIOS configuration, nor anywhere else in the BIOS settings. I have made sure the integrated ethernet controller is enabled in the BIOS.
I also upgraded the BIOS to the most recent version (2.4) but there is still no sign of any 'network boot' settings in the boot sequence nor anywhere else in the BIOS settings.
See the following webpage for the BIOS versions:
http://www.msicomputer.com/support/bios_result.asp?platform=Intel&model=875P%20Neo-LSR/FIS2R%20(MS-6758%20PCBv1)&newsearch=1
Note that BIOS version 2.2 specifically mentions:
"This BIOS fixes the following problems of the previous version:
- System cannot login to PXE server without floppy drive installed."
This seems to suggest that the motherboard supports PXE. While I do not have a floppy drive installed on my machine, this BIOS update indicates that a lack of a floppy drive should not pose a problem.
When booting the computer I am presented with a few keystroke options, one of which is to press F12 for a 'Network Boot'. After pressing F12 I receive no indication that the computer is attempting to contact a PXE server and the computer boots into Windows XP as usual.
I have searched the MSI forums and have yet to come across a solution. Signs point to there being PXE support but I must be missing something. Can anyone give me any definitive answers here? Thanks in advance.

I've since been in contact with MSI technical support. Oddly they cannot seem give me a definitive answer on the support of PXE in MSI motherboards so again I'm turning to you guys. I'm really hoping someone out there has some experience with PXE and any sort of MSI motherboard. Surely someone must have run into this issue before. Anyone? Anyone at all?

New MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R, WinXP BSOD

I just got and installed the MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R. I have Libranet linux 2.8.1 which I can boot into (fast as heck too). When I try to boot into window, I get a BSOD with nothing very descriptive in it except to try chkdsk /f. I have tried playing with the various bios settings with no luck. Is this an instance where I need to reinstall XP? :(

Hopefully you DONT have both OS'S on the same partition? Do you. #2 Do you have BIOS option BOOT TO OTHER OS ENABLED? #3 There has been a lot of people having problems with FRESH WINDOWS XP INSTALL and CREATIVE AUDIGY CARDS! If you HAVE REINSTALL WINDOWS XP REMOVE SOUND CARD FIRST!! After you are done PLUG IN CARD, DO NOT USE NEW HARDWARE WIZARD. INSTALL DRIVERS MANUALLY. Then go to creative website and DOWNLOAD PCI LATENCY PATCH!! Other then that WE need more INFO!..Sean REILLY875

MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R support booting from USB devices?

I am building a super computer using the MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R. I would like to either get a USB pen drive, or an external Floppy Disk Drive in place of an internal Floppy Disk Drive.
Does anyone know if this board supports booting from a USB device?

I ordered my board as well, however, they were out of stock and it may be as long as 2 weeks before they get more in. If you don't mind me asking, where did you get yours from? I am VERY much excited about getting this board as I only await the MB and CPU. What all are you putting in yours??
Mine:
MB- Obvious
CPU- 2.4 800Mhz
RAM- 2 sticks, 256 PC 3200 XMS Corsair using dual channel, at first I think I will use the 512 pc3200 I already have though.
HDD- 80GIG W/D 7200 RPM ( May get another to run RAID 0)
VGU- Chaintech TI4200 at 8x w/ 128 DDR
CD#1- 52x cd rom
CD#2- dvd 16x, cdr 48 cdrw24 cdrom 48
500W raidmax Pwr Sup
Koolcases Panther case w/ window and 3 80MM/ 1 60MM fans
For now I will even use the old 3.5 A drive. Just in case.
Red light internaly
Digidoc 5 for thermal monitoring on:
1.cpu 2.ram 3.VGU 4.case 5.HDD 6.other ram 7.chipset 8.dvd for curiousity sake. just curious of the temps they produce. but always able to move it to a more vital area if the need arises.
Will be upgrading to liquid cooling in the future, that way when I am deployed the temps stay in the blue. (HOPEFULLY)

How can I disable AGP Fast Write with the MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R ? I can't find an option for this in the BIOS !

You wont usually find this option in most MB BIOSES , as the only Option that SOME BIOSES Have is the Option to enable, disable SBA (Side Band Addressing) for the AGP Bus....In order for you to Disable or Enable the FW, You Must have the Option in your Vidio Drivers Controll Panel.....If you have a NVIDIA Card, you Must go to http://www.guru3d.com And Download the program "NVHardpage" and then Open the Program and you wil have the Choice to Enable these options and they will then appear in your Vidio driver CP >> "Activate "Coolbitts" (this is NVIDIAS Overclocking Utility) Activate "Harware Options", and then Activate "AGP Options" and finally Activate "Performance Options"........If you have a ATI Card then you must Download one of thier "Tweeking Utilities".......I will Post the Direct "Link" for NVHardpage in a Minute, just say yes to the Lic.

How much phases power supply does the 875P Neo FIS2R got ??

How much phases power supply does the 875P Neo FIS2R got ?(
And will it be enough for the Prescott ?(

Prescott will be made on a 0.09u process so it should use less power per MHz, I wouldn't worry about that.
According to what I see it has 6 power regulators which usually means 3 phase.

I then went to live update bios to 1.6 through windows and I had no problems, but after I restarted my comp. it came back on with out detecting the onboard lan?? It was detected before,but ever since I updated to bios 1.6, it doesn't dectect the lan anymore!!! Anything I can do??

It could be something simple. Did you check to see if the onboard LAN is Enabled in the Bios?
I'd check that first!
