875p neo

Hi JeffPH & Friends
I am happy to say I writing this on wireless lan (micro soft 510) with lites blinking and Blue neon case light, great light show, nice side view case for $40.00 dollars/with power supply 425 watts, maxtor 60 gig ata, mushkins 3500 black, retail 3.0 /800mhz Intel,leadtek geforce4 TI4200 winfast A280Le tdh,cambrige5.1 surround speakers, MSi bios version 1.2(stock ), windows 2000 professional/with current updates. A tripple boot hard drive Redhat 9.0 or Mandrake 9.1 or Windows 2000 pro. linux just comes up in shell have not updated video drivers yet in system config. but Im not much of xwindows guy anyway... Anway this stock system is pretty stable in either OS ... I am a-fear-ed to upgrade bios as I do have a working and functional computer that screams. guess I will just hide and wait ... a lot little tweaking to do. system went togeater pretty easy. Thanks for all the help! gonna let this burn-in a while

875P Neo-FISR vs. 865PE Neo2-V

Hi, I appreciate any help with this question. I own 2 different MIS motherboards currently and would like to know which would be the better one to use for my system build.
875P Neo-FISR
or
865PE Neo2-V
Specs:
Pentium4 3.2ghz socket 478
2 sticks of PC3200 512mb DDR memory ( kingston Hyperx)
MSI geforce 6600 agp
500watt psu ( XG )
Does it matter what board I use?
Thanks!

875P chipset supports ECC RAM and 865PE/P chipset doesn't.
875P FISR is the 2nd Rev from the predecessor 875P FIS2R and has better support for Prescott CPUs. 865PE Neo2-V is a cutdown version of the predecessor 865PE Neo2 S/LS/FIS2R/PLS/P and has only 2 RAM slots.
To put the 2 for comparsion, I would choose the 875P Neo FISR but if you are not comparing the cutdown version of the 865PE chipset, I would still favour the 865PE chipset.

Problem with S-ATA optical drive(MSI 875P Neo)

Ahoy MSIers,
I am in a most dire situation, and before I go to spend money on some computer-tech guy to solve my problem, I thought maybe you could help me.
*My PC specs:
Intel Pentium 4 Northwood C 2800Mhz
MSI 875P Neo
A-DATA 512Mb RAM DDR 400 * 2(1024)
PowerColor Radeon 9800Pro
Western Digital Hard Drive 80Gb 8Mb buffer P-ATA
Pioneer DVR-212D S-ATA (The main issue here)
Bios - AMIBIOS - VERSION 3.31a
Windows XP Pro - SP2
Until 2 days ago I owned an MSI CD(P-ATA) burner which was virtually dead.
2 days ago, It died completely, So I decided that I will not just replace a CD burner for a CD burner... no! I will buy myself a new shiny DVD burner!
So I bought myself a Pioneer DVR-212D(S-ATA) and I went on with installing it.
I plugged the Serial Power Cable from the PSU to the drive, and connected the drive and the S-ATA port on my M-Board with a serial-ata cable.
I booted up, and found that the device was nowhere to be found although power is being transferred to it(the drive opens and closes when pressing it's eject button).
I searched the net and found that I was supposed to "enable" S-ATA in my BIOS.
Tried that, yet every setting I tried besides the default setting gives makes the computer freeze for a few minutes at the MSI logo and then a "friendly" error massage appears, usually it's something like
"4th master drive ATAPI incompatible" ( the number changes, I haven't got a clue why).
Searched the net a bit more and found almost nothing... most s-ata "problems" were about booting from a s-ata hard drive....
I am getting desperate, So in order to maximize the chances of me getting help solving this issue, I took a few pictures of the BIOS and the inside of my case... maybe it will help, I dunno.
Here are some pics:
The S-ATA cable connected to the Mother-Board
Back of the DVD burner with the S-ATA cable attached
BIOS - standard CMOS features
BIOS - Integrated Peripherals
On-Chip IDE configuration
P.S
I have a DVD ROM(Toshiba, nothing special) and I would of course occasionally like to burn Dvds/Cd's from my DVD ROM to my DVD burner. However, seeing as the DVD burner is S-ATA, there is no physical connection what so ever between the two drives(unlike in P-ATA connection where each cable has 3 "connections", 2 for drives(hard or optical) and one for the Motherboard) I really don't know how I can "achieve" this.

A friend of my father's, whose occupation is a computer technician toke a look at the PC and bios settings today.
WE tried EVERYTHING and It still wouldn't work so we concluded that the problem is probably in the hardware.
There were two possible "suspects" here - The Mother Board(specificially the S-ATA controller/ports on it) or the drive itself.
We connected the drive to my sister's computer and it worked like a charm.
So the answer was clear - something was wrong with the board.
I replaced my S-ATA drive for an IDE drive, and all is well.
Well
that's the end of that story

Dvd and cd/r audio connection to 875P Neo

Hey -
I'm new to the msi forums - so pardon if this is too newbie or too general - but I did try to search the archives and knowledge base and FAQs!
Question is: Can I connect the audio from both a DVD drive and CD/R/RW directly to the 875P Neo mobo to use the built-in audio - or do I need a separate sound card to do that? I can't find an audio AUX in.
Thanks - Howard

There's only 1 connector so I suggest you connect the DVD drive to JCD1, as it's the most logical choice for A/V playback.
Restrict your CD-R/RW to writing or digital playback only
(Right click on the CD-R/RW drive and select Properties - Hardware - and select "Enable digital CD audio for this CD-ROM device")
Otherwise, you would need a PCI sound card - preferably with AUX and CD inputs - and disable onboard sound.

Memory(??) Errors, 875p NEO

Hello everyone...
im having some strange problems with my computer, im trying to unpack anything bigger (zip, rar etc) and om getting alot of strange error messages, i downloaded the new Commandos 3 demo and tried to unpack it and got some error messages that some of the files coudn't be unpacked, tried with some other things packed in rar that i know that the files are ok but didn't work there either..
tried to run Prime95 test with low memory usage and it seems to run fine...
tried memtest and i belive it popped some errors there too, and tried to run Prime95 Torture test and put it to use the memory alot and it couldn't run the test getting an error message that it's some hardware error...
is there anything i can do to fix it?
my system spec:

Something that is reliable and gives at least 220W combined for 3.3+5V rails ( an doesn\'t just print 220w combined on the sticker either, I can buy tose for 15$ )
If it was a simple timing problem the RAM would be fixed at 333MHz already, if it was an actual bad stick it would probably give errors at any frequency.
a Antec True Power 480W ATX (AMD&P4 OK) are on the way, you think it's enough?
about the memory, 333 didn't work, caused errors in memtest, 266 didn't...

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.

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 Neo with new Corecell DOT???

I happened to see the new MSI875P NEO with a sticker with MSI new CoreCell chip with D.O.T (Dynamic Overclocking Technology).
Can this be done with the BIOS?

As the 875P Neo and the 865PE Neo2 are derived from almost the same design, I wouldn't be surprised if DOT comes to the 875P soon.
It was first implemented on 865PE and should be possible through a BIOS update as the major components were already in place - the CoreCell chip and the freq & voltage adjustment settings.
I wish MSI would drop the corny military ranks though and use a better technical analogy.
Also, I think the voltage ranges they provide for Vcore, Vagp and Vmem are ridiculously extreme on one end, so maybe they should consider moving the ranges
Also, fix those temperature readings for System and NB.
But most importantly, give the option to fix the AGP/PCI clock!

Quick 875P NEO question

alright yes im going to sound like a noob when i ask this question, but i dont care cause i wanna get this right...anyways
i have a P4 3.06GHZ 533fsb northwood processor - now, will this work in the MSI 875P NEO?
i have a 655 MAX now and what a bad egg that turned out to be after all the hype about it, so i decided to take all recent advice, leave SiS and go Intel
the rest of my computer is:
WD 120GB 8MB Special Edition HDD
ATi Radeon 9700 Pro
2x256 OCZ pc-3200
400 watt PSU
i dont think the processor will be a problem, but for some reason i was questioning it, everything else should be fine. thanks for any input, you guys have been a great help through my 1st commputer building experience

i just saw something intersting on the information page for the 875P neo-lsr
go here : http://www.msicomputer.com/product/detail_spec/product_detail.asp?model=875P_NEO-LSR
now scroll down under main memory and it says "(*In order to use DDR 400, FSB 800 CPU is required)"
why would this be?? i have a p4 3.06 with 533 mhz fsb in my 655 max now and run dual ddr-400, why would it require 800 mhz fsb to use ddr-400 in a newer board? is it something with the chipset? also if it is not possible for me to use the ddr-400 is already have, can i use it as ddr-333?

First Impressions of 875P Neo FSI2R

Hello All, first off i'd like to make some comments about this board.
My Abit IC7-G needed to be returned, so i did a little research on a replacement as the aforementioned board has its quirks, ( Only wished i'd found these forums before i'd purchased. ) so i decided on the 875P Neo FSI2R as it was the closest to my previous setup.
Now this board is really pissing me off , doesnt MSI have any quality control ?
1. How can my WD Raptors work fine on the ABIT board using ICH5R , but the MSI have these damn problems ?
2. The voltages are far from stable , i set 1.60 in bios and it varies from 1.52 - 1.62
3. I hope the person responsible for the IDE LED not working on SATA has been taken out and dealt with (THIS IS JUST LAZINESS ON MSI's PART)
4. this board is much slower than the IC7-G
5. Its a real shame , i cant use this board i will really miss those northbridge lights.
6. i have my doubts as to if these problems can be fixed with a bios upgrade so reluctanly i am returning this board for something else ... any suggestions ?
This isnt meant as a flame or to enrage happy Neo owners.
Kind Regards
Amigan.

As far as the problems with the Raptors on the ICH5R I'm afraid I don't have a definitive answer. Only a few ideas that might help. I have had my Seagate 7200.7 drives connected to it as Raid/non-Raid a few times with no problems. Generally unless I'm playing around I keep them on the Promise controller for better performance(no PCI cards).
1. I'm not sure how old your Raptors are but the first bunch are known to have had trouble with some motherboards. If you look under the drive at the IDE-SATA bridge chip there is a number on the chip that has the letters "BxP" in it where x is a number probably below 6. Apparently the B3P's and below cause problems in many cases and the B4P's in less cases as well. B5P and up is supposed to be good. There is no fix that I'm aware of. At the very least I would run the WD drive diagnose utility to check for problems.
2. Make sure the cables are properly secured and not overly bent. No hard 90 degree angles with serial cables.
3. Perhaps a conflict with other devices. Make sure the "APIC...IRQ" setting is enabled in the Bios to free up more IRQ's in XP. You can also disable serial ports in the Bios (super I/O config I think) for more IRQ's if you're not using them.
4. Raid driver problem. Check the version of the Intel Raid Bios and make sure the drivers used are same or newer. They might have used an old version on the floppy that came with motherboard.
It sounds like you know what you're doing but try scrolling through the Intel portion of the Raid Guide and see if you missed anything. If you're going to try configuring the Raid again, why not enable Raid in the Bios and install Raid drivers during the Windows install but only on 1 drive. Run with 1 drive for a while and see if the corruption occurs. If not, migrate to Raid0 with the second drive as described in the Raid guide. Sometimes just installing something in a different way will solve an unidentified problem.
Sorry I can't come up with something more definite. I just haven't experienced anything like the problem you're having. You're not booting 2 different OS's from that drive are you?

Where to find M.A.T. in BIOS of a 875P Neo LSR?

Hi y'all!
Currently I'm using:
P4 3.0GHz 800MHz FSB
2*512MB Kingston HyperX PC3200 CL2
MSI 875P Neo LSR (BIOS v1.6)
I'm wondering where I can enable P.A.T. or MSI's M.A.T.?
After reading something about BIOS version 1.6 enabling M.A.T. , I flashed from 1.2 to 1.6.
But where can I find this new option in my BIOS??
Thank's :]
Best regards,
Arjan

Okay... Okay... This is generally for MSI, no reason to take offence.. anyone. Or maybe just the guy who never used computer(apparently) but designed BIOS for this board.
I Have NEO FISR2 motherboard, and the problems I have seem to be something like people here have.
PAT isn't enabled if you overclock. What ever you do, Ultra Turbo or turbo.. nothing helps. Is there a reson for this?
If I drop memory to 333 and raise FSB, should the numbers in BIOS at memory speed show what it actually is, never have done so... And if I raise FSB and memory speed is at 400MHz why isn't PAT enabled, memory isn't overclocked?
If I try to change manually setting for memory, like cas etc... Should it do something, or are these there just for fun, so you could IMAGINE the effects on your board.
Almost all memory related settings are in BIOS for some other reason than adjusting setting on this motherboard, they don't affect anything. At least not for me. Maybe I was wrong thinking this board could be user for overclocking, those volt settings propably are there for show too. Nothing to do with overclocking, because you will never get everything out from this board. At least not if BIOS is working like this.
I did simple test, raised volt for memory to 2.90. Whopee. Raised FSB to 230, and left the memory setting at 400MHz. Changed by hand Cas setting to more relaxed ones.
Quess, which changes of these actually did something? FSB and Volts. For some unbelievably stupid reason board changes automatically both CAS(VERY RELAXED) settings and memory setting. Try Sandra, see for yourself.
Please, let me know if I'm doing something wrong, this is new board and new BIOS, maybe I'm missing something...
OR this is the most lamest try I have ever seen to put out decent BIOS. Nothing makes sense, thank you very much for wasting hours and hours of my time while I was trying to figure out why everything didn't work like I expexted, after all, there where so many "pretty buttons to press" that did nothing.
ARGH! X(

875P NEO - Strange problem with SATA non RAID on Promise 20378

Hello,
After replacing an IDE harddisk suddenly my S-ATA drive connected to the Promise 387 controller can not be found anymore.
When booting it says: No devices found, BIOS not installed. I got the the advice to disable S-ATA in the BIOS, but then no S-ATA drive will work ofcourse.
So here is my situation:
- MSI 875P Neo-FISR (PCB 2.0) mainboard with A6758 BIOS version
BIOS settings:
Integrated Peripherals:
- On board Promise IDE = as S-ATA
On Chip IDE configuration:
- P-ATA only
- S-ATA keep enabled = NO (wouldn't know what this means)
- P-ATA channel selection = Both (if set otherwise it will not recognize the second IDE
controller, strange!)
- S-ATA ports defintion: P0-4th/ P1-3rd (standard setting)
- Config as RAID = NO
Also I have the Promise 1.0.1.29 drivers installed within XP, I know that MSI says 378_55 is the latest, but when installing a clean XP these drivers did not work at all, so I installed the old ones.Within XP it is recognized btw as being a "WinXP Promise SATA378 IDE controller"
What I am wondering now is:
Is it true the Promise controll controls the 3rd IDE controller as well as the S-ATA HDD? And if so can someone please tell what would be the correct settings in the BIOS when having 2 IDE HDD's connnected to the third IDE controller and 1 S-ATA disk on the Promise controller? Because the strange thing only 1 IDE HDD is recognized by XP, the other IDE HDD and S-ATA not.
Ok, I hope I was a little bit clear, I'm really desperate , so I hope you can help me out !!

Not sure what the problem is.
Like I said, all the settings in Integrated Peripherals>>On-Chip IDE Config should only affect the Intel controller(IDE1&2,Serial1&2)
The only interaction you have with the Promise controller(IDE3,Serial3&4) is through Integrated Peripherals>>Promise Controller(As SATA, As Raid, Disabled). You can also select a drive connected to the Promise as a boot device from Bios>>Advanced Features>>Boot Device Select.
I would take a step back and start over a little more slowly.
My assumption so far is that you have WinXP installed on a drive on the Intel controller and that it is booting/functioning properly.
You are trying to install 2 IDE and 1 SATA drives on the Promise controller.
1- In Device Manager, right-click on the Promise 378 controller and select uninstall. If you know for sure that the "Raid Consolel SCSI Processor Device" is from a driver you installed for the Promise controller, uninstall that too. Otherwise leave it alone.
2- Shutdown/Unplug power and disconnect all 3 drives from the Promise controller.
3- Plugin power/Boot to the Bios and set the Promise controller to "disabled". Also make sure Intel "On-Chip IDE Config" menu "Config SATA As Raid" option is set to "NO"
4- Save and reboot to WinXP. There should be no Bios errors and the Promise entries in Device Manager should be gone.
5- Shutdown/Unplug Power and reconnect 1 drive(the SATA to Serial3 for simplicity) Power + data cables!
6- Plugin power/boot to Bios and set Promise controller to "As SATA"
7- Save and reboot. You should see the drive name briefly after the initial post screen if you've disabled the MSI splash screen.
8- WinXP should say something about finding a new SCSI device. If not just see if it's in Device manager and right-click>>"Install Drivers" and point it to the driver folder from before and install the "WinXP Promise SATA378 (tm) IDE Controller Driver". Not the Fastrack ones for raid.
9- Now after another reboot if the SATA drive isn't visible from Windows Explorer, try the diskmgmt.msc utility again.
10- If all this works, try adding 1 of the IDE drives by shutting down again, installing the HDD and checking the Disk Manager. If the drives are already partitioned/formatted you wouldn't need to use Disk Manager. Repeat with the 3rd drive.
If this doesn't work, let me know which step you got to and the problem encountered.

For 875P Neo-FISR Sandra reports DIMM 1 "Empty" -- 512 chip not showing up

About 2 months ago, I assembled an 875P Neo-FISR with an Intel P4 3.20E GHz 1MB L2cache and 800 MHz FSB. I installed 2 Kingston KVR400X64C3A 512MB PC3200 CL3 184 pin DIMMS, one in slot 1 and the other in slot 3 so as to get dual channel mode. The system reported that I only had 512MB memory. I tried reseating the DIMMS several times with the same result. I then moved the two DIMMS to slots 2 and 4, after which the system reported 1GB RAM, and the dual channel mode appeared to be in effect.
Today, I purchased two more identical DIMMS (PC3200 512MB, same mfctr and model #) and inserted them into slots 1 and 3 for a total of 4 512MB DIMMS. The system reports that I have 1.5MB RAM, and Sandra reports that slot 1 is "empty."
I'm not happy.
I'm running a new copy of XP Pro, which came with Service Pack 2 installed. I have a variety of peripherals, WD IDE drives, ATI video card, etc. -- none of which should have anything to do with this. The original problem appeared at the most basic level of installation.

If the slot was dead two months ago it wouldn't get any better with time.
If you use only slot one does it work?

In Windows you need to install the Promise USATA drivers from the MSI CD that came with your motherboard.
Then from Windows Disk Management you need to initialize/format the disk.
I am having the same exact problem right now. MSI has a CD but with a bunch of programs, no drivers
Drivers on A disk included are G72-PRSA060
Promise 376/378 Driver and the ICH one
What are "USATA" drivers..?
Plus, my Sata drive already has sata on it. I don't want to format it, just want to attach it and get data,
Again, this is single SATA on Ser 3, not a Raid config using ser 3 and 4
thanks.

weez

i would not even try to power up the sys untill the psu is in place,if the cpu failed and needs a warranty replacement i dont think you will get any fuss out of intel,BUT you may have other problems looming that may appear at some time or another,lack of AMPERAGE {not voltage} can have a very NEGATIVE affect on the sys as a whole,if it is a mobo failure you should be ok with that also,it just takes a long time during a RMA process since it usually takes 4 to 6 weeks to complete each,mark it up to a learning experence,the PSU {imo} IS the most important piece of hardware that you or anyone will purchase for a computer !

does anyone use the dlink lights at all...and is it a reliable troubleshooting tool
,i donot use it but many here do and find it very usefull. also look here https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=34535.0;all
also the battery can have a bad contact which can cause a no post,also the psu connector pins can become dislodged and push back and cause arching {because of current jumping} that can be harmfull to the pins and sockets.
hope this helps!
