Need more information pertaining to the issue at hand, does the PC have problems booting or stability issues or does it run no problems at all?
From whats in your sig it seems you have some OCZ unless that is incorrect? What is the issue at hand?
For dual channel, put the two sticks of ram into color matched DIMM's closest to the CPU, 1&2 for AMD boards as far as I know.

How to install Windows 7 in UEFI modeand what bios settings for D30

How do you install windows 7 in UEFI mode and what bios settings do I need to install it on a D30 workstation.

Not a ThinkStation guy, but FWIW, that can happen when installing Win 7 in UEFI mode when CSM support is not enabled in BIOS.
Is CSM support - either explicit or by selecting "other OS" and turning UEFI back on as suggested above - an option?

Suggested K8T Neo BIOS settings for CL 3 Kingston Value RAM

G'evening!
I'll be putting together a system with the Athlon 64 3000 and K8T Neo board and had a question about optimal BIOS settings for paired Kingston non-ECC DDR 3200 RAM (2x512mb) that's CAS 3. Should have gotten some CAS 2.5 probably but this is what I have for now so in it goes. I'm reading the quick users guide and noticed that you can manipulate the CAS, TCRD, TRAS, and TRP.
First question: Will the board's auto detect do a good job in picking out a stable configuration?
2nd question: If you had to or wanted to make manual settings, what would you suggest? The CAS value is rather easy since I guess it should be set to 3 but what settings would one pick for the others?
And if I still have your attention...
The other things that will be going in the system are the infamous Maxtor 120 gig SATA HD, a XFX 5900FX video card, Lite-On combo burner. Powersupply is an Antec Solution Series 400W PS. After reading the forums for a bit I get the impression that you shouldn't forget to load the SATA Promise drivers so the HD will get recognized. My SATA drive will be the only drive in the system and will of course be the boot drive. Any other possible pitfalls or problems I should know about with the Maxtor SATA's and the K8T Neo board?
Also, I had thought I read from a review that the Zalman Al-Cu CPU heatsink/fan will fit on this board. Of course after seeing it in my hands for the first time I thought that it was a pretty damn big heatsink. Anyone else using this heatsink? (haven't taken it out of the packaging yet so that's why I wanted some impressions).
Thanks for any advice you can give me. It's been a bit of time since I built a computer and I'm sure there's alot of basic things I'm relearning along with the fact that the Athlon 64 is fairly new technology. On the other hand, when it's running smoothly...

Cant offer anything on the Timing, (sorry as I am Intel Fodder ), But I can assure you that the Zalman 7000-AlCu, Will Indeed Fit onto your Motherboard (With Room To Spare!) :biggthumbsup:I can attest to this because My buddy just installed the Zalman 7000-AlCu on his K8T ....And He loves it! As do I ....It's about the only thing that we have in common as far as PC'S Go .........Sean REILLY875

Best BIOS settings for Kt3 Ultra2 and Geforce4?

Hi,
Can someone tell me what the best BIOS settings would be for my KT3 Ultra2 running a Geforce4 ti4200?
I get crappy scores in 3dMark2001 SE and I have the infamous stuttering/crashing problems in 3D games. I've tried pretty much every configuration of settings and drivers I can think of.
I saw on these forums that the Kt3 Ultra2 can be a bit fussy with GF4 cards. If someone could post the best BIOS settings for performance and stability I'd be eternally grateful.
Alternatively, email me at [email protected] with them.
Thanks in advance

very very similar as far as i can make out

Would like to buy another CPU, but not sure if I am getting the most out of this one.
How do you mean? If your CPU is correctly recognised, and operates at its native speed of 2.3ghz, then you're getting the most out of it.
Does your system work without issues? Does it do everything you require of it, and do it well?
If yes, and yes, then stop fretting and enjoy your system, instead of trying to look for problems that aren't there.
Of course, if you want to try and push your system further, then you'll have to start overclocking. But we have a whole seperate area for that here, and you should post your questions there.

Default Bios Settings for RS480MS-IL2

Hi all
I am just wondering if there is some hidden key that loads some Default Bios Settings for this board? I know there is an Optimized Settings option, but i haven't seen a Default one.
I am using version bios version 3.8
Thanks.

have you tried a better psu
a 128 mb ram consumes around around 8 to 10 watts

volts x amps =watts
3.3v feeds ram
so at most you have 46 watts on a good day

MOVED: Bios settings for single SATA Drive Help

This topic has been moved to Intel P4/Celeron boards.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=142931.0

Nope. Didn't work.
I can try things all day but this doesn't make sense. Surely someone knows what bios settings are required (especially on the MSI board site) to set the bios on a MSI 945p platnium motherboard. I have the sata drive plugged into the Sata 1 connector and bios still says it is ide channel 4 master. The computer will boot with just the sata drive plugged in but the problems start when I plug the ide drives in on ide 1 or 2 or 3.

Bios settings for single SATA Drive Help

I have just installed a 945P Platnium mother board with a Pentium 4 3.4 extreme with HT tech.
I have 2 GB of memory, nvidia 1 gb video 9800 GT, I have 2 IDE hard drives: WD 320 GB(C:) and WD 120 GB (E:) and a CD/DVD drive (F:). I installed a WD 500 GB SATA drive on SATA 1 and the two IDE hard drives on IDE 1 on the same cable with the 320 GB as master and the 120 GB as slave. The CD is on IDE channel 2 as the master. I have cloned the IDE 320 (c:) to the 500 GB Sata which is now the boot drive (c:).
I have been able to boot the computer but the CD/DVD drive doesn't show. If I unplug the the hard drives and reboot then the CD/DVD drive shows up.
My question is: I want the single 500GB sata as the boot drive (c:) (don't need RAID?). I want the two IDE drives with the 320GB as drive (e:) and the 120GB as drive (whatever) and the CD/DVD drive to show up as (F: or whatever).
I don't know what settings in the bios I need to be working with. I have been experimenting but would like the correct way to set the bios up.
Thanks

Bios Settings For MSI K8N Neo4/SLI Platinum MB

Hello all... Has anyone came up with the best and most stable bios settings for the MSI K8N Neo4/SLI Platinum motherboard yet. Specifically under the CPU and Memory menus.
If anyone has seen any, please post them. or post a link.
Thanks
DaaDoctor

Well that depends on the installed CPU and memory, doesnt it? So I find that question kinda odd.
One thing though: Dont use Cool n Quiet.

NF980 + SLI What Bios settings should be set at for PCIE.

I currently purchased back in april the 955 BE am3 chip from AMD. I paired that with 4 gig's of mushikin 1600 ddr3 ram with a latency of 7-7-6-18. I have installed 2 EVGA Geforce 9800 gtx+ SSC editions. Now here my issue, I currently play a brand new MMO called Aion. This board got released right as Aion came out, but at the time I was currently using a m4a79T deluxe, but obviously only utilizing one video card. Aion flew at between 120-130 fps. Now I purchased this board (NF980-65) hooked up everything I did above, again pairing it with Vista 64. I am now utilizing an SLI setup. However on this board my ram is showing much much lower then what it should be. I've read through the forums and will be correcting the ram issue tonight. But now I am curious what the Bios settings should be for PCIE because my frames per second NOW using two cards, has dropped down to , get ready for this 20-50 fps. All drivers are current, and up to date. Everything except the ram is proper and in order. I am wondering if I need to manipulate the Bios for PCIE or something, or what they should be at exactly so that I can utilize this system to its fullest potential. These cards are Nvidia, this board is Nvidia, yet 1 card ran better on a crossfire only board. Please help.

Install latest VGA drivers ==> http://www.nvidia.com/object/win7_winvista_64bit_191.03_beta.html
191.03, 2009.09.25
Also the game "Aion" may not have corespond SLI pro file or to do not support SLI.{contact to game vendor to find out}
Another tip:
Apply from Nvidia CP:
Turn off Vertical sync
And set SLI Performance mode to: "Force alternate frame rendering 2"
Apply and re-test.
The game does not have an SLI profile. However, I should have mentioned, I uninstalled 1 card to kind of recreate my april environment. No change in FPS. Nivida control panel also has a feature to create your own profile if you will, or turn off sli, which I did too, without change. It has the last nvidia drivers of course, as its a brand new build, so it would require brand new drivers. I said that in the initial post. Again, all settings in OS and hardware are proper and in proper order. Thats why I asked about bios to begin with. You cannot setup a new computer with a fresh install and even see the nvidia control panel without installing it first which would be accompanied by the newest nvidia driver install package. Fyi. Also, I tried the additonal tip you mentioned in creation of a profile...Didn't change.
You seem to know alot about this,I'm honestly impressed. But are you certain my bios settings from the factory are completly correct for an SLI setup?

What client settings for BIOS or MEBx do I need preconfigure for Out Of Band Management in SCCM 2012?

Hi,
On the Client:
What BIOS or MEBx setting do I need preconfigure for Out Of Band Management in SCCM 2012?
Or can I remotly configure BIOS or MEBx settings from SCCM 2012 or Intel SCS?
/SaiTech

Thanks,
Now I see, with Intel SCS add-on for SCCM 2012 it will be the most simple solution. Even better than to have Intel scs standalone, that was an complex setup on dhcp and so on...
Just one thing more, When you configure AD for AMT you have to set a OU. but if you have computers in two ou, I cant see how I can configure that?

Ideal BIOS Settings for online gaming

this is my 1st computer that i built. i have a lot of experience in wiring high-end electronics, so wiring this little rig with barely any visible wires/cables was a breeze. I bought the processor/mobo with the intention of only doing minor O/C as i dont really know all that much on the hardware side of improving performance. with that said, i've searched for timings and settings for my specific combination, and i cant find any. again, i dont really want to push the config past a safe level, as i will be selling this machine when the 64's come down in price. can someone help me set the proper frequencies/timings? i have a lot to learn, and even in the normal bios settings i don't know if certain things should be enabled or disabled for my main purpose, which is to simply play 3D online games very fast. i will be changing out the GeforceFX5200 PCI for a 5600 AGP in a week or so. I'm noticing that my old Comcrap PIII 1.0Ghz w/512SDRAM with this video card gets just as good a ping ingame as this rig does. the machine starts quickly, runs offline programs quickly, but online it isnt as fast as i'd hoped. from what i've read in the other forums, there are many settings in the bios that are enabled by default that don't need to be. can someone help me decipher which settings are useful and which are not. i loosely understand some of the settings but if someone could help with the questions below and/or do a walkthru for bios geared toward gaming i'd really appreciate it. The machine runs very cool (CPU 104*F/SYS 93*F) but i dont know what else needs adjustment. I simply want to make this machine go as fast and as hard as it can with the right config. i don't want to unlock the processor yet or do anything else major at this point.
1: Best yet safe Voltage for my processor and RAM
2: FSB clock; 133 or 166? had problems @ 200
3: S.M.A.R.T. on or off?
4: Best IRQ/PCI slot for video card
5: "GoodMEM" utility: how much should i safely allot?
6: Video BIOS Cacheable?
7: Multiplier setting for K7N2DeltaL & XP2600+
8: VGA Aperture (my card is 128MB but PCI. upgrading soon)
i'll be learning more as i go along, so i dont really need a full explanation of what's what, lol THIS TIME. all i need is a rundown where someone tells me what to leave alone, and what to change for a very fast yet safe gaming rig

OK I'm officially confused.
I bought the retail boxed AthlonXP2600+, which clearly states on the packaging "With 333 MHZ Frontside Bus". i bought the board over others, one reason being it supported 400MHz FSB. I go into "Advanced Chipset Features" and when i set the "System Performance" to "Manual", i can then go into the "CPU FSB Clock" settings, but the max it will allow me to go to is 233MHz (which won't boot and i have to flip the jumpers. when i had set it to 200MHz before, it failed to boot as well... PLEASE can someone look over these settings and tell me the OPTIMAL settings for taking this combo as fast as it can go w/o overclocking? What am i doing wrong? what multiplier do i need to be at. I'm under the impression that the combo works best when the clock speed of the board is at the same speed as the processor. here are the BIOS settings with which i need advice:
ADV. BIOS

External Cache [Enabled]

I do currently have a PCI GeForceFX5200 8o, but im getting an AGP FX5600 this week. i know my card has nothing to do with AGP, but i've left most of the AGP settings alone since i'll be using it later. is this creating a bottleneck or tying up system memory to have it this way for now?
FREQUENCY/VOLTAGE CTRL
AGP Clock Value [Default]

Change your user config mode in dram configuration to manual and change your memory timing to 1T. The 1T setting will speed up your memory slightly.
