915GM Speedster-FA4 Help needed.

I have tried to put together a system based on the 915GM Speedster-FA4 motherboard.
But it just wont post.
I have installed CPU and memory and PSU, nothing else.
I have tried two different CPUs, both 400Mhz Dothan, one SL8BA and one SL7GL
Can anyone confirm that they are compatible with the 915GM Speedster-FA4 motherboard?
The Jumpers are: J4 (not connected), J5 (2-3 connected), J6 (2-3 connected)
I have tried both DDR1 and DDR2 memories (not at the same time)
Using a 20-pin PSU. I will try to swap PSU, but after that I have run out of ideas
Is it possible to get any diagnostics from this board???
Advice please!

[Intel] 915GM Speedster FA4

I have flashed the BIOS to the new 1.13 from the site, but still have problems with overclocking and the SATA HDD.
When I go above 165FSB, I no longer have SATA drives visible in the BIOS, and the system tries looking for another boot disk.
Is there anyone out there who has overcome this problem, or is there a newer 'beta' BIOS available to overcome this problem?

915GM Speedster-FA4 - ICH6 or ICH6R which one?

Hi
I recently purchased 915GM Speedster-FA4 based setup. I was planning to set it up with raid0 and lived in impression that this motherboad has built in support for it (ICH6R). Manual states that MB is equipped with "optional ICH6R" southbridge, but there isn't any kind of mention how to enable it. There are also whole section about setting up the raid. But of course document starts with enabling raid in BIOS and at least my version (v1.13) doesn't have any options to do this.
So the question is, does this motherboard have raid support or not, and if there is how to enable it?
Thanks

I've plan to purchase MSI 915GM Speedster-FA4 and combine it with my Pentium M 755 (479pin).

Actually the pentium M comes in socket 479, but according to intels site they do come in 2 different types Micro FCPGA & FCBGA.
and according to the sSpec# there is a 479pin version of the newer ones.
the 1.86 comes in both of the ways below - so make sure you get the SL7S9 if you were choosing between them.

915GM Speedster-FA4 - works with DDR2 667MHz?

Hi folks,
first of all: sorry for my English - hope you'll understand me
I've bought a 915GM Speedster-FA4, I will run a P-M 750 on it.
Now I'm looking for RAM.
DDR2 400MHz / 533 MHz is supported by the board, but will also 667 MHz RAM run?
(manufacturer will be Corsair, model: value-ram DDR2 667 MHz)
I don't have any experience with DDR2 - but e.g. in many
boards with DDR 333MHz support I ran 400 MHz without any problems.
Thanks a lot!

"DDR2 400MHz / 533 MHz is supported by the board, but will also 667 MHz RAM run?"
should be not a problem, board should accept 667Mhz stick(s) or higher rated and will run it as 400 or 533. if you using 2 memory sticks ensure they are same brand & specification.

915GM Speedster-FA4 , banias CPU support

Does the MSI 915GM Speedster-FA4 motherboard support Pentium M Banias CPU?
I think that Celeron M (100MHz FSB series) are similar to Pentium M Banias, but to be confirmed.

Dothan is newer than Banias. ... so I'm not sure...

HELP!!!!! 915GM Speedster-FA4 PCIe x1 slot not working - SORTED

Hi, I am at my whit’s end with this motherboard, I cannot get the PCIe x1 slot to work. When I use the PCIe x16 slot it recognises the option card OK but the x1 slot will just not see it.
I know the network socket 1 needs to active for the PCIe x1 slot to work.
Any help would be appreciated.
SORTED - IRQ clash with the onboard boot ROM for Lan socket 2 - NOT DOCUMENTED - MSI PLEASE TAKE NOTE

Sorry there is no MSI in here....
It seems that nobody used that config to be able to help.
And no, I'm not from MSI either

Tips overclocking 915GM speedster-FA4

Intel
hai there,
this mobo is a good one even they're not the best on the oc.
i manage to run @ 166mhz with sacrifice the onboard ich 6 r and replace it with a pci sil 3112 and did it even with a 180mhz oc but hiks hiks hiks my proc need a higher voltage than the standard 1.35 and this mobo wouldn't let me change the vcore(hiks hiks hiks). i hope with the new bios i can change the vcore(pleaseeeee).

Yes it´s an interesting MoBo, ( I´ve been thinking about it for my P-M 730 cpu), however mATX "server"-boards does not normally have all OC settings like ordinary desktop boards.
What bios are you running at the moment ? Latest 1.13 have an OC fix ;
Version    1.13    Update date   2005-9-16
Update Description   1. Fixed bug that may not Over Clock with SATA drive

915GM Speedster-FA4

i have not purchased this motherboard but i am buying a new pcie card and i dont want to upgrade my current Pentium 4 (socket 478) to a new one and this was the ONLY s478 pci express motherboard that i could find. So i am wondering if my P4 will work with it because under supported processors it says " Supports Intel® Pentium® M Dothan/Celeron® M Dothan processors in 478-pin package ". Does that include my processor? And also the only place i could find this board sold ONLY the board and not the driver cds and cable etc so when i tried to find a driver download i was unsuccessful as well so if someone could point me in the right direction i would really appreciate it. Thanks
Dom

...so basically, this board will NOT work with my processor?...
You are correct, your proc is not supported.

...Where can i get a board that does i have looked everywhere. Thanks for the reply.
Here are the boards that support P4 478 procs, none of which support PCI-e. I am not aware of any PCI-e board that supports P4 478 procs.

[915 Series] Intel Pentium M 915gm Speedster FA4 (MS-9625) MATX PCI-E Dothan

Does anyone know when this board will be available to purchase? Or any additional info on it?

the subjects contained in combinations

COMB_ID     subjects
383           Biology,Chemistry,Computer Science,Physics
384           Chemistry,Computer Science,Mathematics,Physics
you can use any of the COMBINATION table(either (2) or (3))
and i want to know
1)which design is good in this case
(i think SUB_ID1,SUB_ID2,SUB_ID3,SUB_ID4 is not a
good method to link with same table but if 4 subjects only(and must) comes
detail table is not neccessary )
now i am achieving the result by program-coding in C# after getting the rows from oracle
i am using oracle 9i (also ODP.NET)
i want to know how can i get the result in the stored procedure itsef.
2)how it could be designed in any other way.
any help/suggestion is welcome
thanks for your time --Pradeesh

Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:
SELECT C.COMB_ID
, C.COMB_NAME
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID1) AS SUBJECT_NAME1
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID2) AS SUBJECT_NAME2
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID3) AS SUBJECT_NAME3
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
FROM COMBINATION C;
As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

Hi all help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.
But not sure that my lenses will work.
I have a 170mm/ 500mm APO Sigma.
A 10/20 ex Sigma HSM IF.
And a 180 APO Sigma Macro or do I have to scrap them and buy others.
ALL Help will be greatly received. Yours BRODIE

In short, I love it. I was going to buy the 5DMark III. After playing with it for a while at my local Fry's store where they put 5DMII, 5DMIII and 6D next to each other, using the same 24-105L lens, I decided to get the 6D and pocket the different for lens later.
I'm upgrading from the 30D. So I think you'll love it. It's a great camera. I have used 5DMII extensively before (borrowing from a close friend).
Funny thing is at first I don't really care about the GPS and Wifi much. I thought they're just marketing-gimmick. But once you have it, it is actually really fun and helpful. For example, I can place the 6D on a long "monopod", then use the app on the phone to control the camera to get some unique perspective on some scenes. It's fun and great. GPS is also nice for travel guy like me.

Help needed! Raid degraded again!

Hi!
Help needed! I hava made bootable RAID with two S-ATAII 250Gb HDD and its not working! Every now and then at bootup I get a message RAID -> DEGRADED... Must be seventh time! Rebuild takes its own time!
What am I doing wrong!
T: Ekku
K8N Neo4 Ultra
AMD 64 4200+
2 Gb RAM
2 x 250 Gb HDD (Maxtor)
nVidia RAID (in mb)
P.S. I wery SORRY with my poor language!

I'm going to blame the nVRAID because I've seen issues with it in the past. If your motherboard has another non-nVidia RAID solution, use that instead. Using the nVidia SATA ports as BASE or JBOD is fine and dandy but RAIDing always had issues. It's not even a driver issue I think it's just instability. Latest drivers and even boxed drivers never helped. Granted, some will report success with their rig. But on a professional level I've seen nForce issues on different motherboards and different hard drives that had RAID disaster stories.
Good luck and if you don't have another RAID solution, my suggestion would be to buy a dedicated RAID controller card.

Have you tryed Google ? really.. your question is inrelevant. No need to reply indeed.
Why do you come here asking this question anyway ? is it becouse you have a MSI gfx card ? and the adapter has nothing to do with this ?
You think you can come in here yelling.. thinking we have to put up with it and accept your style of posting. This is not a MSI tech center.. it's a user to user center.. Your question has nothing to do with MSI relavant things anyway's.
