Abit AV8 - Neo2 Platinum

Well, my utterly horrible Abit AV8 finally locked up the PCI/AGP buses (or so I thought) two nights ago, so I started doing some decent overclocking. I upped the FSB to 250MHz with a 4x HT multi and a 9.5 CPU multi. Ram was running well at 1:1 at 2.5-3-3-8 timings at 2.8v. Anyways, system memtest86ed for hours and Prime95ed for hours and was stable and I was pretty happy. I played some CS and as my beta 4.12 drivers had been previously doing, I VPU locked and went back to my desktop. Upon opening an app windows froze and when I rebooted my machine I had no video output.
I swapped a Radeon 9600 in to the AV8 and I get no video output still (although diag leds on MOBO show it is posting fine) so I am pretty optimitic that my X800 XT PE didn't bite the dust. Anyways, I am seriously peeved that my board ate it so unexpectedly, and I am wondering how stable the PCI/AGP lock on the Neo2 is.
I just ordered a Neo2 and I am getting ready for a full reinstall of XP etc. I know that I'll need to put my SATA drives on connectors 3/4, etc. Should I be able to expect an equal OC out of the Neo2 though? My CPU and GPU are on water, and my Ram should certainly be capable of handling the speeds (as indicated by anand's review) so it pretty much comes down to the mobo.
Thanks for the advice

LOL Sorry Abit rather. It is early in the AM here.
For whatever it is worth I moved away from ABit a long time ago as I had a bad experience with them helping on their forum. While since then they may have changed things they had at the time a very messy Bios update chart. I could never sort out their mess and I was told to do the wrong things and it splashed a board. Before that I used to swear by them but the way I was treated by not only the forum staff there but also as a computer dealer I moved on. I found MSI after that and have never looked back. I am pleased with how the boards set up and the forum here was more what I expected. I decided to stay here and have been very pleased with all my MSI purchases.
We try to help as we can around here. But do understand that this is a tech board so what you see are people with problems being helped by people that have the experience of solving their problems. Most folks that never had a problem have never needed to visit us. So all you see is the dark side of things. However we do tend to help folks get their issues sorted. So if you have a problem this is a great place to come for help.

New/modified voltage.ini for MBM5 5.3.7.0 to fully support K8N Neo2 Platinum

I have been fed up with the misread of MBM5 with Neo2 since i made the switch from Neo1
Fixed :
vcore fixed calibration
+3.3v fixed (showed to low level)
+5v calibrated
+12v fixed ( showed to high level)
New section to select Neo2 Platinum as the voltage configuration .
Here's the whole voltage.ini file in the code box .
Just save the previous one as voltage.ini.bak and paste this in a new file , restart MBM .
Code: [Select]
/* Voltage file for MBM */
/* Dated: 18-Jun-2004 08:41:37 */
/* [name] = sensorchip name -exactly- as in chipinfo.ini */
/* VT = number of voltage configurations start at 0 */
/* Vx = where x is voltage config number */
/* this holds the name of voltage config */
/* VxVy = where x is the voltage config number */
/* where y is the voltage number default this is */
/* 1 core 0 */
/* 2 core 1 or 1.5 or 2.5 */
/* 3 3.3 */
/* 4 5 */
/* 5 12 */
/* 6 -12 */
/* 7 -5 */
/* this holds the register and calculation for */
/* the voltage in question */
/* As of MBM 5.3.0.0 you can use a total of 16 */
/* calculation, if for example you want sensor */
/* to show a voltage that MBM does not show */
/* right now then add an 8th line, place your */
/* code in there and set MBM voltage sensor 8 */
/* to MBM Fixed */
/* 255 = should always be used if a voltage is not */
/* supported by this voltage config selection */
/* $xx = a register from the sensor chip, any $xx */
/* value in the string will be replaced with */
/* the value from that register of the sensor */
/* chip */
/* B = option to use bank switch on ISA based */
/* sensor chips, always use at end and always */
/* followed by a bank number in hexadecimal */
/* | = needed on dual sensor chips, always use it, */
/* followed by 0 or 1 for the 1st or 2nd sensor */
/* chip found */
/* - = a calculation with a negative number is only */
/* possible if that number is between ( ) */
/* example: $12*(-0.4) will work */
/* $12*-0.4 will NOT work */
/* // = remarks, don't use anything else */
/* . = in ALL calculation use a dot as the decimal */
/* symbol, even if it's not your normal decimal */
/* symbol. */
/* if you feel you have a new voltage configuration for */
/* your board then feel free to send it to support at */
/* [email protected] */

Audigy 2 on Neo2 Platinum causes LOCK UPs/BSODs!!! Help!

I have a videocard with a HUGE, I mean HUGE custom CPU heatsink attached to it. This leaves me only ONE slot available for my Audigy 2. And that slot is the last slot 5, orange color.
Its the ONLY ONE AVAILABLE. I read on these forums about some incompatibility of Audigy 2 with MSI Neo2 Platinum. Thats what I have. I tried several later and older BIOSes including the official one and the latest beta one.
Still, when I play UT2004 or some other games that demand EAX/Hardware 3D sound - I get a dark blue BSOD without a message (its like a non-WinXP BSOD, its a hardware BSOD as I call it, dark blue color). It comes with a sqeeking sound. I have to restart my PC afterwards.
It happens after 3-4 minutes of playing.
When I REMOVE the soundcard - everything is fine, NO BSOD.
I tried different Audigy 2 drivers, but they all give the same result. This did not happen on my old ASUS A7N8X-Deluxe 2.0, and the soundcard was in PCI Slot 5 as well. I tried to format, and etc., - same thing if the soundcard is in the PCI slot!
I have PCI lock ENABLED (AGP set to 67Mhz, and PCI LOCK DETECTION set to ENABLED).
How do I fix this problem?

When you said that you have PCI lock enabled and PCI lock detection enabled, were you talking about the same thing? If not, where in the BIOS is the PCI lock? I could only find PCI Lock Detection.

Hi,
Thank you very much for reading this post. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as i would like to avoid the RMA process
My problem: Intermittently, machine will not POST – (CD/DVD drives keep flashing/resetting forever)… no “beep”, and pc needs 4sec hold of power to shut down (don’t know if this gives any detail in sequence of post or not).

Corsair Dual (Twin) DDR 1GB PC3200XLPRO – in “Auto” originally, now in 2-2-2-5 with 2.75 volts
Antec TRUE POWER 450 (modular PSU)
2x Seagate 200MB HD in Raid 0 (stripe) (on SATA 0 and 1)
Floppy
Sony 4x DVD+/-R and LG 52x CDR on IDE 0
EVGA NVIDIA 6800GT 256
BIOS 1.2 (as shipped)
- NO Overclocking
Sequence of issue:
I built the machine last weekend and hooked everything up (I know a mistake) and machine would not post…. So I started unplugging, started with IDE-0 and it posts fine. So I think – ok so my issue is here….replace IDE cable and move drives to IDE 1 and I am fine. Installed windows…soft rebooted many times, fully installed my whole system, programs, drivers, etc. THEN – I did a HARD REBOOT. Problem comes back. I move CD Drives to IDE 0 and it boots fine again!.... Install games, play games for 5+ hours no problems.
Now I get this non-post issue every 3 hard boots or so. First boot after the problem, bios tells me I have a failed OVERCLOCK, adjust in setup…which is BS but I have to go to bios settings, change nothing, then it boots fine.
One other thing – the memory is supposed to be a 2.75 volts according to Corsair, so I changed that (bios seting is RED – not recommended) and this change does not seem to affect anything (can post and operate normally for a while then get no post again).
I have built 10+ systems and this is the most frustrating issue ever for me!!! My guess was:
1) loose connection – nope – reset everything 3x
2) Power – tried using different power connectors for 6800GT card but don’t know if there are any specific issues here (maybe the card needs a connector with nothing else on it?)
3) RAM / CPU / MB issue: I have tried moving ram in slot 2/3 but same issues. I reeeeely don’t want to have to re-seat the athlon64.
THANKS FOR ANY/ALL INPUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And here's an important thing to read :
It's comming from an article at ModdersHQ community"

The Noisetaker probably performed the weakest out of all 3 in the test. However, considering this PSU is only rated at 470w, compared to 510w and 550w; and it does not have adjustable rails, it did very well. The rails were all well within reason, but the Noisetaker showed the largest drop, especially on the 12v rail. I think the 6800 Ultra was beginning to suck more juice than the Noisetaker had. Unfortunately, here is where you can see the downside of dual 12v rails: there is no "backup" or "reserve" current.
Each 12v rail has about 15 amps of current, compared to the usual 34 amps or so on a normal PSU. Now, if you add them together, everything is fine. But the problem arises when you suck too much current from a single rail. With a regular PSU, the current ceiling is very high(30a or so), so even though you might be running a ton of fans and drives, chances are you can at least unplug something if the rail drops too low. Also, if you have less fans and drives, then you have more current at your disposal. However, if you are only working with a 15a current, then your ceiling is much lower. You have no "reserve" current to draw from that would be designed for fans and drives. So even if you have a single drive and fan plugged in, you still only have 15a for your motherboard, CPU and graphics card. And there is no way to access that other 12v rail without running a molex from the second rail. That is most likely why you see the dip in the 12v rail from idle to load. Although not huge, it is noticable, and with a smaller PSU would become a problem.
That can explain our problems...!!!

K8N Neo2 Platinum 54G BIOS problem

I recently bought a MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum-54G mainboard with W7025NMS v1.3 092204 revision of BIOS.
AMD Athlon64 3000+ 939 is installed on the mainboard, with 2x512 GEIL PC3200 memory modules in dual channel configuration working on default frequency of 200MHz. CPU is recognized correctly as AMD Athlon64 3000+ on startup.
Mainboard’s BIOS seems to be corrupted. In Cell Menu options, in the upper left part of the screen (printed blue) are processor and DDR working timings:
Current CPU Clock 1810MHZ, Current DDR Clock 200MHz.
Aggressive Timings and Dynamic Overclocking values are [Disabled] (processor working on its defaulf settings); Spread Spectrum is [Disabled] while all DRAM Configuration settings are set to [Auto].
While entering HT frequency settings, (locked to [x5]) there are no other values to select – empty, and there is no way to leave it (ESC doesn’t help, the only thing possible to do is to reset the computer by pressing the Reset button on the chassis), but the HT frequency settings were enabled when I loaded Fail-Safe settings, offering [1x], [1.5x], [2x], [2.5x], [3x], [4x], [5x].
Adjust CPU Ratio settings offer only [StartUp], [x4]~[x9] values, but as I understood by reading the manual there should be [StartUp], [x4]~[x20].
CPU Voltage, Memory Voltage and AGP Voltage are set to default.
CPU-Z, as well as SiSoft Sandra 2004 and SiSoft Sandra 2005 and MSI CORE CELL show that processor works at a core speed ~1005MHz, showing multiplier locked on x5.0 and HTT locked at ~200MHz, while the voltage is ~1.05V!
I downloaded the latest BIOS revision (v1.4), did the BIOS flash, but the problem remains!
Anybody, help!

is a known fault in bios & is easily sorted Bas HT Bios Error

CPU Ratio settings
AMD64 CPOU's have a lock on CPU ratios which varies according to the specification of the chip. therefore the multiplier available in your bios stops at the max multiplier allowed by amd for your cpu.
As an example i'm running a 3200 754 which has a maximum muliplier of 11 so that is the max i see in bios.

K8N NEO2 Platinum rebooting

Hi all,just got myself a 64bit MSI K8N NEO2 Platinum board & a 3200+,am happy with it but a couple of days ago i got a blue screen with a long message that i didnt have time to read before the pc rebooted,after the reboot i checked the event viewer log file in administrative tools/control panel but couldnt narrow it down as my particular error code wasnt among the possible causes.
Among some of the possible causes were incorrectly installed USB drivers or the BIOS,i downloaded the latest BIOS update before this problem started(V1.40) which i am using now,i used the MSI live update software to flash it which i did in windows mode.Sorry for prattling on!well it did it again tonight and i managed to read a bit of the writing on the blue screen which mentioned flashing the bios to the latest version.I was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem and if so could you please advise me?

My K8N Neo Platinum [754] did not include a NB fan. But this usually means the overall size of the heatsink is larger. If you remove the fan from yours, the size of the heatsink will not be big enough to cool your NB. As for temps, I've never seen my NB get hotter than 45'C. Note that the core on my NB should be slightly different than yours.
You could try to use the BIOS fan control for the NB. If set correctly, it should reduce some noise.

Need help with k8n neo2 platinum

I've just installed a new k8n neo2 platinum s939 board with a venice core 3200+ cpu the htt is 2000 and multiplier 10x.
I've gone to the core cell menu and set the htt to 4x (seemed to be this at default) and the max mem clock at 166 (more about this in a moment), the fsb will go quite easily up to 250mhz even 255mhz, but when I try 260 Mhz the machine when it reboots shows the initial slash screen but then goes to a blank screen with the cursor flashing in the top left hand corner, I can't even get back into the bios setup without clearing the cmos.
The odd thing is that the adjust cpu vid is showing a voltage of 1.50 and not 1.40 or startup.
Anyway with the fsb at 250mhz the bios screen is showing the Current ddr clock at 208 mhz ( not the max memclock setting of 166) the memory in the motherboard ( a crucial 512meg ddr333 single stick) seems to perform OK according to memtest which shows no errors after 2 cycles.
Any attempt to get to 260mhz fsb appears to fail even by upping the cpu vid to 1.525v unless i adjust the cpu voltage setting which by default is set to (by cpu vid) to +3.3%. Doing this enables me to get to fsb 260mhz but the memtest fails ( even when I set the max memclock to 133, which shows my current ddr speed at 174mhz, well below the 208mhz which appeared stable with the fsb at 250mhz?)
So firstly why are there two cpu voltage settings in the bios when my manual only shows 1 (there is no mention of this cpu vid setting?
How is it that my memory is stable at 208mhz with a fsb of 255mhz but unstable at 174mhz with the fsb set at 260mhz?
Why does the memory clock lock not appear to be working, the memory should be fixed at 166mhz but infact increases with fsb?
I have bios revision 1.5.
Please help as I am not familiar with the bios settings for this nforce 3 chipset, they seem rather odd to me. I'm sure my venice core 3200+ cpu can get beyond 250mhz fsb, I have another pc with a venice core 3000+ cpu which runs quite happily at 270mhz fsb.
PS I've tried reducing the htt to 3x but the same thing happens.

OK further feed back, I can get to over 260mhz fsb but the system is not stable the memory runs OK with mem test but I have problems with prime95.
I had to up the cpu core voltage to 1.53v to get to 260mhz using the cpu voltage setting in the bios and setting a 5% increase. increasing the cpu vid setting to 1.55v did not seem to do anything at all the core voltage was still at 1.43v.
I upped the mem voltage to 2.6v from 2.5 but still could not get the system to be stable, it may be that the memory is holding the system back but I don't want to pay for better memory at the moment. Unless anyone has got any other ideas it looks like I may be forced to settle with 250mhz, well still a 500mhz increase maybe not that bad. I've now to try 3d benchmarking using my radeon 9600xt and 3dmark 03.

Neo2 Platinum and AMD X2 ??

I am currently running an Athlon64 3500 in my Neo2 Platinum with
BIOS v1.4.
I want to upgrade my CPU to an Athlon 64 X2 3800 Dual-Core
Will i have to upgrade my BIOS ?
I`m running Windows XP Home. Can i easily flash the
BIOS using Live Update ?
I`ve done BIOS flashes before in the past with a floppy drive.
But now, i no longer have a floppy in my system.
I guess i could borrow one from someone if i really had too !!
I just downloaded and installed Live Update from the MSI web site.
How reliable is it to flash the BIOS with it ??

Noooo! Stop!
Live Update is the absolute best way to guarantee a BAD BIOS flash!
Download & install your BIOS file manually via floppy and flashing utiliy - it's the most reliable way
That being said... You will have to upgrade your BIOS and reinstall XP to make sure it uses both cores effectively. Sounds like a pain, but it's worth it.

Help needed with 915G Neo2 Platinum 2 problems please help doing my head in

Using RAM slots 3&4 (vice 1&2) on a Neo2 Platinum

I was having some issues that seemed RAM related so I ran Memtest and it showed one stick with lot of errors, but the other seemed fine. I only ran it on each stick for a short time because I got 34 errors in 20 seconds on one stick, but the other was error free for about 10 minutes.
I pulled the bad stick (temporarilly running 1x512) and everything was fine for one day, but I just got another memory dump BSOD. Now this stick shows errors.
I'm curious if maybe Dimm1 on my board could be eating my RAM. I've already got 2x1GB sticks on the way. Should I just put them in slots 3&4 and not worry about slot 1, or am I asking for more problems that way? Also, has anyone heard of Neo2 Platinums's destroying RAM?
Complete specs in sig.

You can run two dimms in slots 3 & 4 as an alternative to slots 1 & 2 according to Jim Flynn who seems to know what he is talking about here: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=88800.0
Do you get errors in MEMTEST with slots 3 & 4?
The errors in memtest require some troubleshooting with the assistance of CPU-Z which will tell us the SPD and actual operating timing values of memory (cas, tras etc) for each slot on the SPD and MEMORY tabs. What voltage are you using for your dimms? Are you overclocking?
You might not want to insert your new memory until you figure out what is going on with your slots, as I imagine a faulty slot (and maybe faulty configuration too) could damage memory.
Post CPU-Z and MEMTEST results for slots 3 & 4 and maybe one of the memory gurus here will lend a hand. I believe errors in tests 5 & 7 are timing errors while the rest are bad ram.
Good luck.

Neo2 platinum Encountering Stability Problems /w dual channel memory

Hello,
Recently I built my first computer ever, see bottom. After getting windows installed I then had problems with installing other programs and general stability issues. I tried reinstalling windows and after the reinstall I got the same problems.
Something to do with the instability is when I start it up, and go into BIOS, it states my Athlon 64 3500+ as running at 2211, a half percent overclock. Also, even though I have the FSB set as 200mhz, when I go into CoreCenter on windows it states the FSB as being set 201mhz. In the nVidia system utility, it states my memory as running at 402mhz, and I had to crank that down to 400mhz to get stability, it allowed my to install programs without error, but there were still stability problems like crashes(blue screen, the computer just plain restarting without notice). I took out one of my memory cards, both of them work alone though, I've ran memory test utilities. That had a good effect and the computer runs fairly stable, but I still have problems, and I want to be able to take advantage of dual channel. I'm running my memory on auto and it's using the times of 2-3-3-6-2T.
Another problem I'm experiencing is the AC97 audio not being detected and loaded by windows, it will say I have no audio device, and the speaker will not show up in the notification area in the bottom right-hand corner. This happens inconsistantly.
-Thank You

hi bknoll,
welcome to the forum.
1) i wouldn't worry overmuch at the 201 issue.
2) Quote

which test utilities did you use, Don't quiet understand Quote
had a good effect and the computer runs fairly stable
3) It may be worth checking the Mushkin site or any documentation you have to verify that the auto settings agree with the quoted settings for the modules. It's not unkown for errors to occur when the memory controller on the CPU to misinterpret the SPD chip setting on your sticks - this is where the auto settings come from. Some memory like certain corsair modules need to run at different settings on AMD64, thus auto timings must be overidden,
4) Have you installed the Realtek drivers from the CD, & enabled onboard sound in Bios. When these are done normally there's the MSI Sound Effect manager in control panel. you just need to set your speaker config in the Windows Sounds & Audio Devices.
5) Usual question What power supply are you using as been underpowered on the 12v rail in particular can be the cause of crashes,

K8N Neo2 Platinum Ordered - Advice for a noob please

Hi there,
this seems like a great forum, was hoping someone could give me some advice - Im trying to pre-empt any major probs....
I am a relative noob to building P.C's - done a few P4 based systems before but this will be my first Athlon based. This systems primary use will be gaming. I have the following on order (should be with me next week) : -
a) MSI K8N NEO2 Platinum Edition SCK 939 Motherboad
b) AMD ATHLON 64 3500+ 64bit SCK 939 Retail Inc Fan
c) 160GB Maxtor Calypso 8mb Cache 7200 SATA DHH
Components I have already
a) Graphics Card - Nvidia 6800 GT
b) Memory - Generic 2 X 512MB PC2700 DDR333 RAM
c) Sound Card - Creative SB Live Value
d) PSU - Jeantech 450W (22a on 12V Rail)
e) Case - pretty generic full tower case - no fans attached
f) CPU FAN - COOLERMASTER HYPER 48 SUPER SILENT HEATPIPE
g) Spare Hard drive - 120GB Maxtor IDE Hard drive
h) DVD Drives - 1 x Pioneeer 108 / 1 x Pioneer 104
I) Monitors - Ilyama 17" TFT & Toshiba 32WL36P LCD
I have some 'noobish' questions - apologies for my ignorance : -
1) Memory - Will my memory be okay ? Should I ditch it and buy some Corsair DDR400 (which everyone else seems to have!). Will performance suffer if I stick with the DDR 333 ? Do I need to adjust settings in BIOS regarding memory timing ? (I only picked up on this from reading through other posts on this board, and am totally clueless on 'timing'- Ive never needed to adjust timing on any previous PC's....!)
2) Sound Card - will I be better off sticking with the onboard sound on the MSI K8N neo 2 ? Or for best performance do I go with the SB LIve ? (god its a nightmare trying to get updated drivers for this card), Would I get a noticable performance increase buying an Audigy 2?
3) Vcore / other power issues - Reading this forum Im kinda scared by many posts along the lines of "..for stability I need to change my memory voltage to xx-V" or "...for a stable system I needed to change my Vcore to xx-V". Will I need to change the Bios default values on this system just to get it to run stably??
4) CPU FAN - Are AMD stock fans any good ? My Hyper 48 is quite highly rated....
5) Im completely new to SATA drives, but Ive printed off the very useful install guide on this site (which I intend to use). Is there anything I need to look out for concerning adding my IDE drive also.
I think thats about it just now - if anyone can see any other potential problems with my specs then please let me know. Im really not trying to be negative / pessimistic - after all the reason I have went for this motherboard is that it is rated as one of the best. Im just a bit paranoid that the dreaded B.S.O.D awaits me!
On a more positive note - does anyone have similar system specs they use for gaming ? How well does HL2 / Doom3 / Farcry etc fly J ? I cant wait !
Thanks for the time

SATA HDD installation on K8N Neo2 Platinum, Non-RAID, Non-Bootable

Hi-
I’m a rank newbie on this forum (first post). I have a K8N Neo2 Platinum Mobo, which I’ve recently gotten up and running, with Windows XP-Pro SP2 installed on a single IDE drive. I would now like to add 2 SATA drives. I don’t need or want the SATA drives to operate in a RAID array, nor do I want them to be bootable. I want to use them independently for data storage. I read the following thread (I am posting here on a separate thread per the author’s wishes not to get his original thread too junked-up) :
Single SATA or Multiple Drive Array Setup FAQ
I have not yet plugged-in either of my SATA drives, because I don’t want to risk corrupting my existing boot (IDE) drive. I just had a few questions about the procedure given in the referenced thread, in the Single Drive Setup:
- Step 14 States: “Make sure the “RAID Mode” is Stripping and Striping Block at 64k or Optimal. Hit F7 (Finish)”. Is this correct for a single non-boot drive?
- Step 22 States: “As most of you know when you enter the Setup for Win2k/WinXP you will need to hit F6 to load additional drivers for other SCSI devices.” I assume this means I need to boot from the Windows CD. Is this true even if I already have Windows installed on an IDE HDD on this system? At what point will I need to hit <F6> ? Will I be prompted to do so?
- I have downloaded (from the MSI website) the NVIDIA RAID CLASS DRIVER & NVIDIA Nforce Storage Controller (20 files, 1.3 MB total). Should I put these on a floppy? Or can I access them from a directory on my OS HDD?
- Should I go ahead and plug-in both of the 2 SATA drives I want to add to the system before beginning the driver installation? The only reason I would consider installing them one at a time is if it eliminated any confusion between RAID vs. independent (I want independent operation). If I do install them one at a time, do I have to install the driver twice?
Any help would be appreciated.
- the bbdude

OK Thanks JeanGuy and ssjkakaroto,
I have connected both of my SATA drives. They are enabled in BIOS but not set to RAID. I booted up to Windows on my IDE drive. In Disk Manager, the display shows Disk 0 (C: System), Disk 1 and Disk 2 as uninitialized, and my DVD (D:) drive. At this point, I could probably go ahead and run the Initialize and Convert Disk Wizard to get these disks formatted and be dome with ot now. Before I do that though, I just have a couple of more questions.
- I had already loaded the nVidia nForce3 system driver prior to installing the SATA drives, but I went ahead and did that again after installing the SATA drives and restarting Windows. I used Live Update, which went out to the MSI site and found version 5.03 of the nVidia nForce3 system driver. I'm not sure how to find the "Nvidia 5.10 driver package which include the latest SATA driver", ssjkakaroto referred-to. The Live Update install procedure did ask if I wanted to install IDE driver and I said yes. It then asked to over-write what I already had there (I said yes to that too). As the file names streamed-by, I though I saw some filenames with nv... listed. So, bottom line, is I'm not sure if I have the lates and greatest nVidia SATA drivers installed. How can I find out what drivers are installed?
- As I mentioned in my previous post, I have also downloaded and unzipped the NVIDIA RAID CLASS DRIVER & NVIDIA Nforce Storage Controller (20 files, 1.3 MB total) from the MSI site; however, I don't know how to "install" this now that I have the files. There are a couple of .exe and a .bat file (bit no setup.exe).
I may already have everything I need to partition and format these drives. I just want to bve sure I'm not skipping a step that is essential to optimal performance.
Thanks -

Neo2 Platinum won't restart in WinXP

I recently RMA'd a Neo2 Platinum board because the SATA3/4 ports were not being detected during the Windows XP Pro setup. I received the board yesterday and the ports are now detected properly but I've encountered another perturbing problem. I've discovered that the computer won't restart via software. What I mean is after the NTFS format of the hard drive in Windows setup the computer is supposed to reboot on its own to proceed with the installation of the OS but in my case I have to physically press the restart button on my machine to continue with the install. Windows XP will fully install on the hard drive however the operating system can only turn off the PC, it won't restart it. It merely hangs.
I've tried reposition memory sticks, use a different IDE cable, another power supply, clearing the CMOS via the jumper, reverse updating the BIOS twice, and using the safe defaults in the BIOS but nothing has worked. This isn't the first time I've put a computer together and I've built quite a few but this is one abnormality I've never before encountered. I just hope this board doesn't have to be RMA'd yet again.
Thank you in advance for your help. :smiley:
