9700 pro and K8N Neo 754 Problem

I have some stability issue running 9700 pro on K8N neo 754,
First I was having a signal loss problem during playing and freezing , and I have to reboot manully from the reset buttom, FIXED this problem by running the card at agp 4x instead of 8x
second problem, also signal loss but this time in dos, some time I restart my computer, nothing appear on the desktop and aswell monitor is giving me no signal, just push the reset buttom and it works, and also when I enter bios to change some setting , save and exit , and nothing on the screen (signal loss), then push reset buttom, THAT happens random, some times it restarts without problem, I think the problem is the GPU stop responding.....
I think changing some bios settings may help
I tried disabled agp fast write and agp sidedband , didn't fix, maybe there is something hidden can solve the problem

This board does have settings that can be accessed by pressing shift F2 then pressing alt F3.  I've never accessed them but I hear that there is a setting called nv/ati speedup or something like that.  Some have solved video issues by enabling/disabling this feature.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Corecenter 1.7.6 and K8N Neo Platinum 1.6 bios

    Hi
    Just updated from Corecenter 1.7.3 to 1.7.6, and K8N Neo Platinum bios 1.5 to 1.6.
    First thing I noticed, is my reported CPU temps are really low.
    Before:
    Idle = 34c
    Load = 55c
    Now:
    Idle = 25c
    Load =38c
    This cant be right...  Anybody else experience this?
    Cheers
    Jooppy

    Yeah, nearly everyone, apparently.

  • Msi k8n neo plat problems

    I have built 2 computers exactly the same.

    When i tried to install windows xp pro on both the machines i got the same error. could not copy file. On each try the file was a different one. After hours of trying new things i found that putting the memory in slot 2 on the motherboard  solved the problem, windows installed and booted up as norm. When i moved the memory back to slot 1 the computer would not boot.
    I have now left the memory in slot 2 but the computer will still crash every hour.
    I am sure this is something to do with the memory but not sure what the problem is.
    Can anyone help.

    Can anybody tell me what i should set the cpu fsb frequency to in the bios.
    I just read this in the faq
    What is the fsb speed of this cpu?
    Depending on which FSB you are asking about: The Athlon 64's have the memory controller built in (which was previously part of the Northbridge on the motherboard) which uses up to 200MHz DDR Memory (400MHz FSB) The HyperTransport link from the CPU to the rest of the motherboard runs up to 800MHz. Just to expand on my answer... The HT link is 800MHz, but it's 16 bit in size (2 bytes worth of data per clock) the total bandwidth of the HyperTransport link is 3.2GB in total - 1.6GB sending data to CPU and 1.6GB receiving data from CPU.

  • Audigy 1 and K8N Neo Compatibility

    I'm about to jump on the Athlon 64 bandwagon in the next few weeks and I'll most likely be getting a 3000+ with the K8N Neo Platinum. After reading about the troubles with the Audigy 1 and K8T Neo, I'm a bit concerned about those incompatibilities carrying over to the K8N Neo. Has anybody put an Audigy 1 into their K8N Neo successfully or unsuccessfully? I don't really wanna have to buy a new sound card, most of my money will be sucked up by an X800 Pro  
    Thanks in advance.

    hi,using audigy 1 with K8N here with no problems yet.

    I just recently started buying parts, about a week ago, to upgrade my old AMD Athlon 2000+. Got all the new parts(listed above). Ive been having all sorts of problems. Ill list them to see what you guys think
    1.) Whenever i start playing games or a graphicly intense program(ex: video editing, or 3D programs) or if i play a game and i do any sort of loading(ex: zoning, changing levels, loading player models etc.). My game either crashes to the desktop without errors, or my system will crash and drop to a bluescreen with the stop error "STOP: 0x0000007E". Or ill get a different blue screen saying "Dumping physical memory" or something can't read it cause it just appears then reboots my computer right away.
    Or just recently i crashed to my desktop but got an error box saying "There are stability problems with the Geforce FX 5700LE please check if you have the correct drivers etc."
    Then just the other night i was playing a game and crashed to the desktop but got a virtual memory error saying "Ran out of Virtural memory etc etc. Please check your Virtual memory page file". So i did and increased it a bit cause i saw it was set lower than the actual amount of ram i have.
    I guess it's just 1 big problem but im just so confused about it. Been trying to troubleshoot it for about a week and about to give up. This monday is my last day to return things back to the store, would rather not cause ive heard such great things about AMD 64's and the Neo Platinum board.
    Hope you guys got some ideas Im just about out of them heh.
    Thanks.

    Don't know if you have tried this things but heres my list of things .
    BIOS:
    -First load bios optimized defaults , then ..
    -Set the cpu vcore voltage up by + 0.025v (don't use auto)
    -Increase the memory voltage vdimm to 2.7v (or the vendors max defined voltage)
    -Disable fsb spread spectrum
    -Disable dynamic overclocking
    -Disable cool n quiet
    -Change the multiplier from startup to 11
    -Turn off auto on memory timings in cell menu/dram and set all values manually
     and the max mem frequency to 200.
    -Turn off AGP fatwrites
    CASE:
    USB connectors
    -Disconnect case front usb from usb header on motherboard.
    -Disconnect the d-bracket from usb header on motherboard.
    -Change the red MSI ide cable if used.
    -Check all stand offs/spacers under the motherboard .
    -If using PS2 kb and mouse some board have mislabeled color code
     making people connect mouse in kb and vice versa .
     Correct is keyboard in the bottom mouse top.
    STABILITY TEST:
    Outside windows and windows drivers:
    Download and test with memtest86 v 3.1

  • K8N Neo USB Problem + Boot/Shutdown issues

    I just bought the K8N Neo and I am having problems with it.
    First problem is usb. Sometimes when I boot up my mouse and keyboard won't work. That only happens sometimes though. The bigger problem is, that usb devices (mouse and keyboard) fail randomly. Like I'd be playing a game, then I suddenly hear the sound that windows makes when you disconnect a usb device, keyboard and mouse are dead, and then 10 seconds later I hear the sound for plugging an usb device in and all is back to normal.
    I've read some of the older threads where other people are having that problem too but I have not found a solution to this yet. I'm using the two usb ports that are attached to the mainboard. Also I tried to disable "allow windows to shut down this device to save power" (or whatever it says) in the hardware device manager for the usb hubs as somebody on this forum suggested. Didn't help.
    Usb keyboard/mouse support is turned on in the bios and I have the newest drivers installed for everything.
    My second problem is that when I start windows (XP) I would see the loading screen but it's very very dark and nothing is happening (like it's frozen). About 15 seconds later it suddenly is brighter and I see the "loading bar" moving. Also, whenever I try to restart or turn the pc off I get a similar freeze. After clicking on Start->Shutdown the mouse cursor turns into the sandclock and I can't do anything. Can't click on any icon nor the taskbar. Takes about 5 minutes for anythingto happen. That's when I get the "turn off, restart" screen. After clicking on something I'd see "please wait while windows is shutting down" for another 5 minutes to so. Any ideas as to what could be causing this behaviour?

    Go to your device manager, then IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers, and double click on the NVIDIA nForce3 250 Parallel ATA Controller (v2.6).  You can try to roll back driver and see if it puts you back to Microsoft.  If you've upgraded from 2.5 then you will only go back with an Nvidia driver again.  If so, then choose to Update Driver instead,  at Welcome etc choose No, not this time, Next, Install from a list or specific location (Advanced), Next, and then click Don't Search, I will choose the driver to install and Next.  At the Select device driver, you should have checked Show compatible hardware and several drivers should show in the Model window, at least the Nvidia and the Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller.  The standard is the Microsoft driver.  Choose the standard driver and Next.  You will have to reboot  and hopefully things will be better.  To put it back to Nvidia you only have to repeat process about but select Nvidia or run their install again.  Later....

  • K8N Neo 4F problems

    Hi,
    Recently I have just brought a K8N Neo 4F mobo and have been getting some weird problems with it. The following is my system system :
    1. K8N Neo 4F
    2. AMD 64 3000+ (Venice chipset)
    3. Cosair DRR400 2x512MB (CL2.5) RAM
    4. Sapphire Radeon X700 Hybrid 256MB PCIe

    7. Maxtor IDE HDD 20GB (ATA100) 5400 RPM 2MB
    8. Sony 16x DVD DL RW+RW- / 48x CDR
    I have installed WinXP Pro sp2, Catalyst 5.9, DirectX 9.0c and drivers for Sound Blaster. I am using Norton AV 2005.
    When I am working normally in Windows, the system is stable. When I start playing 3D games, a few minutes into the game and the system hangs. I got a black screen and pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL doesn't help. I have to press the reset button to reboot.
    At the BIOS setup screen, I found the CPU Vcore voltage is 12.22V which is 0.22V above the standard. I am not doing any overclocking on the system.
    Can someone tell me what is wrong?
    Thanks.

    Does your fast write is enable/disable in the BIOS? If enable try to disable it! Used CPUZ to identify your RAM setting and try to change it from the BIOS (recommended setting) http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php. BTW put your pc spec's into your sig!!

  • MSI K8N Neo XP Problems

    I just got a MSI K8N Neo Platinum with a 3200 Clawhammer and a 160 GB Seagate Hard drive. Cooling is an SLK-948 with an Enermax 92mm 2800 RPM fan and a Antec 400 watt PSU. Ram, ive tried both 2700 and 3500. My system posts ok then i reformat but when it starts installing the setup files it gives me a blue error screen saying the system was halted. Ive also tried reformating on another computer. Then I just launch the XP setup from the A64 system. All goes well and everything installs until the very end i get the error screen again. I am not overclocking or anything, all bios settings are default as i just got this setup. Ive also tried my seagate harddrive on my other computer and it has none of these probelms.

    Start by eliminating possible causes 1 at a time.
    I'd start with the RAM.  Set your BIO's to default (compatability) settings.  Use 1 stick to start in slot zero.
    If you have another PC to work with (w/ internet access) download and create a bootable CD with memtest86.  You can get it here:  Test Your Memory  If not, perhaps a friend can save it to disk for you.
    It's a decent memory tester and has helped me on more than one occassion.  The last time with a 256mb stick of PC2700 Mushkin.  For some reason the FIC board it was on didn't like it.  Everytime I went to install XP it would fail in different places for strange reasons.  Since I'd used the disk successfully just recently before, I ran memtest86 and discovered the problem.
    The next thing I'd examine is the CD/DVD-ROM drive(s).  I can't count the number of times I've gone to upgrade a machine, keeping the CD drive, only to discover XP doesn't like the drive.  If you're drive is older, buy a new one.  Don't install using a DVD drive (so they say - I don't have one).
    If all else fails use the diagnostic LED's to try and track the problem.

  • K8N NEO Boot problem

    Hi,
     I have a new:

    The system turns on for 10 seconds and then turns off.
    Have tried changing graphics card and unplugged hard drive and cd from IDE and power to no effect.
    Have tried NVidia Geforce 2 and my brand new Raedon 7000. One AGP, other PCI, so tried in 2 different slots.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,

    Reason I asked on PSU is shown in the

    Tiresmoke
    As this pertains to A64's make sure that you have a power supply that is either approved for use by MSI/AMD or that you have plenty of amps on the 12 volt rail. Typically we have noted many issues based on styability with PSU's being rated at less than 24A on the 12v rail.

    Basic Building Tips
    Ive looked at the antec site Model: True330 if this is your model 12v/22A will probably do.
    However I think Antec have recently updated the true power range with a stronger 12v in this case 22a
    Look back at label and check your12v ampage just to be safe
    Memtest isnt dos, just create disk & put in as u reboot. you cant Dir floppy

    Try disconnecting the AC from PSU .
    Remove the battery for the cmos rom .
    And place the jbat jumper in discharge (check manual for instructions) .
    Leave it 5-10min

    Syar2003
    Later , first set the jumper back in "keep cmos" position .
    Mount the battery .
    Connect AC to the PSU .
    And try starting the computer .
    When/if bios posts with cmos checksum error .. press F1 or "del" key
    Dont use F1 but hit "del" key
    and load optimized BIOS defaults + save + exit .

    Sometimes were a little keen and dont leave long enough 4 disharge

    good luck
    PS Copy your spec from the body of your last post.
    go into Profile (top left button on this page) then edit signature
    and paste details there. then when u post again your spec is automatically added at bottom of post - saves a lot of hassle

    well i just got the motherboatd back from RMA cause there was a problem before.. so i assume its fixed now...
    so i plugged everything in

    a 120mm case fan and an 80mm case fan..
    This is what happens.. when i turn on the power    theres no display..   and the computer shuts off after 10 seconds..
    the Heatsink is the ZALMAN CNPS7000B-CU
    then i tried to turn the power on again..  this time theres display.. but the display is stuck on the Neo Platinum Logo page..  tried pressing del to the BIOS set up but nothing works...   its like the system froze at that point..
    so i tried clearing the CMOS but that didnt change a thing..   i know the components work cause i was using it on my other system while i was waiting for the motherboard to get fixed..  so what might the problem be :(

    Quote from: syar2003 on 28-June-05, 06:45:17
    There is some timing requirements that may not be fulfilled during the motherboard start .
    Fans will always start turning , but the motherboard and cpu wont start up if the timing sequences and housekeeping control of ps_on , pwr_ok is on track
    withing the defined times .
    So yes a "bad" psu can cause this . And it's the motherboard thats turn off baecause it hasn't got
    a high pwr_ok that holds up.
    I see,, so i guess i'm gonna replace the power supply...
    which one do u recommend?

    or something cheaper or equal value to one of those in the links..   but still high quality..   at least 500 watts   

  • Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Usb And K8n Neo-fsr??? What Solution???

    AHHHHH! What it is occurring?
    Reason that the MSI does not decide this problem of the peripherals
    (mouse, keyboard and others) that they are not recognized when the operational
    system comes to tona?
    What incautiousness is this?
    I am thinking seriously about changing my K8N NEO-FSR for an
    equivalent of the Gigabyte.
    In the majority of fórums in the world that speaks on series K8N and
    K8N2 they come reporting this problem.
    I ask for to more care with its fidiciary offices customers, therefore we deposit our investments in its equipment MSI.
    I am tired to have that to replugar mine mouse, when exactly reinio the computer. Without speaking in my card of memory.
    The problem if reproduces in all outputs USB.
    Already I reinstalled the operational system and everything continues
    in the same one.
    These same peripherals functioned very well in a K7N2-L with nFORCE 2.
    Ahhhh! I changed the cursed one and exactly thus it continues.
    Necessary of a solution of the MSI already.

    OK I am also running Win2k. I beleive you must have the latest service pack 4 to get proper usage of USB 2.0.
    Also in device manager under USB 2.0 Root Hub in the Properties/Power Management tab do you have The allow Computer to turn off this device to save power turned off? You may also check and see if any USB device in Device Manager has that turned on. If it is checkmarked then uncheckmark it.
    Outside of that you could have a device that is attached that is causing the issue. Try one device at a time and see if you still get the problem. I have been through this myself but luckily not on my current board. I had that problem when I had a USB card in my old ASthlon 1200 system on an A-bit board. However what I just listed fixed it when I discovered a device (A mouse if I remember correctly) was not functioning well.

  • Strange K8N Neo Platinum Problem

    I just got my new system:
    MSI K8N Neo Plat
    A64 3000+
    512 MB Kingston HyperX (PC3500)
    Installed windows and thought everything was fine until I got random BSOD (PFN_LIST_CORRUPT).  I narrowed the problem down to the memory so I used Memtest86 3.1 and found that the ram was faulty at Test#5 at all ram frequencies from 200MHz and up.  Worked fine when I used the dividers as long as it is below the 200MHz mark.  So I went back to the retailer to have them test the ram but it was fine on their system.  Ended up getting 1 stick of Corsair XMS PC3200 thinking it was incompatibility.  But again got the same problem.
    Anyone have any clue as to what's going on?  Could it be the CPU or the motherboard that's causing the problems?
    Thanks

    Thanks for your reply.
    Ok, I've tried all sockets and they all do the same thing.
    I've slowed down the memory timings to the worst possible and same thing.
    I've bumped the voltage up to 2.7 and still no luck.
    I've already RMA the HyperX and the replacement stick didn't work either and of course the Corsair that I currently have now does the same thing.
    No Kingmax where I am.
    I'm currently running at 235FSB with the 5/6 divider giving 195MHz.  Sucks that I can't run 1:1 at all, not even default.

  • K8N Neo Memory problems

    I'm having problems with my K8n neo and my Corsair 3200 DDR. The system will boot and run stabaliy with just one stick of 512mb. It doesn't matter which stick I use or which memory slot I use all are stable. However if I try to boot with 2 sticks for a total of 1gb ram, the system will not boot. I just get a long beep from the speaker. I have tried all possible arangements of two sticks in three slotts, but nothing works. I flashed the bios from 1.1 to 1.3 but that didn't help. I tried increaseing mem voltage but that didn't help either
    System:
    K8N Neo 7030 ver 1
    AMD 64 3000+
    mem 1) Corsair CMX512-3200PT ver 1.1; 2) Corsair CMX512-3200PT ver 3
    P/S Zalman 400W
    OS - XP home SP1
    The system is not OC at all

    According to Corsair, it is not reccommended to mix revisions of the same type memory.  It can, and usually does cause instability.  If I were you I would either RMA the sticks to Corsair, in hopes of getting two of the same revision, or at the least send RamGuy a message at this forum:  Official Corsair memory support forum
    I hope you sort things out, and good luck.

  • MacBook Pro and Cintiq 12UX display problems?

    Hi,


    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this so I'm sorry if it isn't - this is just the only place I could think of to ask about a display problem?
    I’ve just got the new model Cintiq 21UX, and I’m running it off one of the newer model MacBook Pro’s (using Apples adapter to connect the two).
    Everything seems to be working fine, although on the Cintiq’s screen I get flickering green pixels in darker areas of the screen? The confusing thing is it doesn’t happen all the time, it just seems to be the one particular ‘shade’ of dark grey/dark tones it happens on - an example is if I move an image around then its the same area of colour it has problems with across the screen, or if I zoom in the effected area gets bigger etc. I can also edit the colour to a slightly different shade and the problem stops so it can’t be a dead/frozen pixel. If I turn on the mirror display option it is still only the Cintiq display that is effected.
    I currently run the MacBook using the Nvidia 9600M GT, I did try switching to the 9400M but it made the situation a lot worse and caused green pixels lines to flash horizontally across the screen.
    I can save the image or drag the window that the problems happening on and drag it back to the MacBooks’ screen and there is no problem with the pixels there - it’s only on the Cintiq display.
    I was just wondering if this is either a fault with the Cintiq tablet itself, or possibly a problem with the MacBook?
    If it’s useful the spec of the MacBook is:

    Late 2008 unibody 15.4”
    Mac OS X v10.6.3 Snow Leopard
    2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT & 9400M
    I’m not sure what other spec would be of use but if theres more I can let you know.
    Any help would be appreciated, as it works fine other than this occational green flicker, and it’ll cost me a lot to send of either the Cintiq or the MacBook off for a service or replacement in the UK?
    Cheers!

    It could just be bad. Do you have another computer to try it with?
