Bios 1.6 and Core Centre Problems!

Hi MSI Buddies!
I have an 875p Neo mobo,
I had problems before where my mobo wouldn't cold boot.  I got a replacement board (with bios 1.20) which works perfectly.
I sucessfully upgraded to bios 1.60 last night and the version of corecentre kept stopping my CPU fan !!!!  Arrrrggggghhhhh!  Can't MSI get anything right (even 6th time round !!!)
I upgraded to 1.0.5.3 version of CoreCentre which fixed the CPU Fan stopping but, the FSB defaults to 203 instead of 200. Everytime i tried to put it back to 200 the PC completely froze !!!!  I then ran live update and got the very latest Core Centre which still sets FSB to 203 but i can adjust it without it freezing.  But it resets to 203 after a reboot! ANY IDEAS????
The CPU temp stays between 41c and 59c.  Is this going to affect my CPU or cause any problems????
Also in the bios, Performance is set to FAST (this was by default).
Is there anyway i can re-flash back to 1.20 bios????
PLEASE PLEASE HELP

Use Corecenter solely for checking speeds/temps.
There were lots of problems with this program so it might still behave weird sometimes. Also take into account you're directly over/under/clocking the system while it's running, you can never predict it's stability.
The 203 FSB is directly caused by the setting FAST in the bios. Those settings regulate different levels of overclocking. Try setting it to slow and tell me what corecenter says the FSB is then?

    Hi All,
    New here and with a question so here we go,
    recently updated my bios with MSI live monitor and it updated the bios and everything is fine and works well except for core centre, evertime the computer starts it says core centre isn't compatible with your motherboard, have i done something wron and go back to previous bios version or is there a fix?? any help would be good.
    thanks

    I just flashed my bios to version 1.8....i cant it to post past the windows xp boot screen.....anyone know why and what i can do??!!?!
    Everything was fine before running 1.5....
    I read a thread somewhere in this forum saying 1.8 is good if you have Sempron (E6?). If by some reason you have to flash 1.8, search for User syar2003's post. I followed his procedures and I flashed 1.6 successfully. Bios 1.5 gave me a lot of troubles.

  • Cool n Quiet and core centre question

    just a quick question
    if i dont have cool and quiet enabled in the bios and i start core centre it reports my Mhz as 2400 ( i have the XP 64 3700 chip )
    but if i enable cool n quiet in the bios and then start core center it reporst the MHz as 1000
    and i was just curious why ........ faintly paranoid that my chip isnt running to spec  
    thanks if you can help and no probs if you cant

    so with cool and quiet enabled my chip is running at half its rated spec 1000mhz instead of 2400mhz
    would this be why DOOM detected my pc and set all detail to low even though i have an x800 xp 64 3700 and a gig of ram .... DOOM basically underspecced my processor
    thats a bit mad as father dougal would say
    ok last question ... with cool and quiet off the processor is reporting at 45 degrees so i would imagine under load ( saY a game of doom 3 ) it would hit 50+ .... whats the max safe temp for these chips 65 degrees ???

  • Network and Sharing Centre problems (again)

    I seem to be tearing my hair out once again with the Network List Service. Several months back the Network and Sharing centre stopped displaying or reporting the active networks, although I was connected with internet access. A consequence was most of the
    Metro apps would not work as they thought the computer was off-line.
    The problem seemed to be that the permissions were wrong in the Network List hierarchy and adding Full Control for my user account in 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
    NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList' seemed to solve the problem.
    Once again thought the Metro apps are not working reporting no internet connection and the Network and Sharing centre has the following message:
    Unknown
    The service to detect this status is disabled
    More Information
    When I select More Information I get a dialog asking if I want to turn on Network List Service,  when I click "Turn this on' nothing happens. 
    Having looked in the Event Viewer, there are a large number of this entry, maybe it is related?
        DCOM got error "1068" attempting to start the service netprofm with arguments "Unavailable" in order to run the server:
    Network List Service is reported as running in Services.msc. and task  manager.
    I tried to check the permissions in the registry key as I did before but key was missing (i think). I tried switching to a local account on the computer from my Microsoft Live account but no change, although when I checked the registry, the NetworkList
    key was there and the permissions were correct. Maybe I was just looking in the wrong place but I was pretty sure it was missing...
    Not sure where to go next with this.. 

    Hi,
    The Network and Sharing centre opens as normal but where you would normally see 
    'View your active networks' followed by the network or list of networks that you are connected to it just says:
    Unknown (when view your active networks would be)
    The service to detect this status is disabled
    More Information
    Clicking on 'More information' informs me that the Network List Service is not running and asks if I want to start it, clicking yes does nothing. The Network list Service is listed as running in Service.msc
    I have tried a full virus scan and also ran a whole host of anti malware tools and the computer seems clean. I also tried sfc /scannow with no problems detected.
    I restored and old clonezilla backup I had and it is fine now but made a system backup before I did. This is the second time this has happened and I would like to find a solution so I will revert back to the drive image with the issue and post a screen shot.

  • Core Centre Alerts - No Fans Installed

    Ok, i've had a look around the forums and could see anything regarding this subject. It's doing my head in!
    I run an over clocked system, spec is un-important however I am running a full water cooling system through the CPU and GPU. Consequently I don't need a lot in the way of fans, so I have a small fan controlled from the front panel to brush some cold air over the northbridge.
    My problem is that when I boot my PC and Core Centre starts up, it immediately maximizes and starts beeping. Eveything is fine as far as settings I promise you, so the only thing it can be doing is warning about fan speeds - because there isn't any!
    Has any one worked out how to stop it from doing this?

    Just checked BIOS - couldn't see any option to stop monitoring any fans. Any thoughts, 865G Neo2 ?
    Thanks for the suggestion on moving the fan. I didn't go into much detail regarding my system, but it was designed for power, but just as important; noise. I only really need the fan over the northbridge when i'm gaming, so I want to leave it on my external control so I can knock it right back when I don't need it.
    Something else that i've just noticed is that on my normal partition which I use for most things, I've got a little app running at startup called startup guru. It allows you to alter the timing of the start up group of apps. I have core centre set to start up 5 minutes after bootup and it doesn't give any alerts.
    However, in my games partition which has nothing running at all in the way of background apps other than core centre it starts immediately and starts to alert immediately. But even if I kill it off and restart it, it still starts to alert immediately.
    I'm going to try startup guru on my games partition and see if it sorts it.

  • MSI Core Centre ANNOYING!!!!!

    Ok i recently upgraded the cooling on my amd 64 3700 sandiego be cause i found that the stock heatsink and fan sucked. so i purchased a Gigabyte G-Power pro. This is a great cooler and cools the cpu much better however i have found that since i have imstalled it MSI Core Centre keeps popping up from the system tray and making teh alarm noise, now i don't know why it does this because all the temps voltages and speeds are fine, and no overclocking has been done, it isn't even highlighting the bit thats supposed to be causing the problem, and the alarm will stop after a few seconds. but it's really annoying when playing a game and your whole game mnimizes and core centre pops up      i have installed the latest version too. pls help 

    I don't use corecenter while gaming,but maybe you can edit the HW.ini file in "C:\Program Files\MSI\Core Center"
    It lists all the settings for fan speed limits etc. , maybe your new fan drops below the minimum setting which is at 1000 by default.
    Or some other setting that influences this.
    Have you btw speedfan running at the same time?Because when in that program the wrong fan divider is set corecenter also sounds alarm.
    I found this when setting a different value for my northbridge fan,my cpu fan dropped to 150 rpm in corecenter,still it maintained the same temperature and ofcourse the fan ran at full speed (3300rpm).

  • Core centre and multiple users

    Hi
    I noticed today after setting up another user on my XP machine that core centre wouldn't work and gave an error along the lines of "failed to initialize" and then hardware monitor isn't working.  Earlier I noticed that without core centre running that may fan speeds were at idle and didn't change untill I opened core centre and I could hear them throtle up. So now I'm worried that if i'm not logged in as a particular user or the computer is at the login screen that my hardware isn't being looked after at all. has anyone else experienced this and can it be fixed?

    Don't use corecenter for fan speed control.  Instead, use the BIOS:
    1) Open Corecenter from the administrator account or a user account that has admin privileges.  Click on the top center logo which should open the fan speed control window.  There should be two items, CoolnQuiet and User/Manual or something like.  Put it in manual and move the slider all the way to the right. Ignore the CoolnQuiet, it's misnamed here - MSI's corecenter does not control CoolnQuiet.  What MSI is calling CoolnQuiet is just fan speed control.  Anyway, put it in manual.  Close Corecenter and you should never have to open it again unless you want to monitor fan RPM's.
    2) Next, reboot and enter the BIOS.  Go to the H/W  Monitor settings.  Turn on Smart CPU Fan Speed.  Set to 40 C +/- 1.    This will allow the motherboard to control the fan speed.  On the other hand, if you want your fan always at maximum, then disable Smart Fan Speen control.   Don't worry about the Smart NB Fan speed, leave it disabled.
    Also, keep in mind that when you first open Corecenter, the immediate fan RPM's reported are not correct.  It takes it a few seconds to get the readings.  So wait until Corecenter minimizes itself to the system tray, then open it from there, and you will see the correct fan RPM's.

  • Kt4v possible problem with bios 1.8 and hd

    Any Idea anyone with this one.
    system running well till the other day when hd went very slow even after defrag, install bios 1.8 and reset the bios and adjusting it for my setup. Come to check my harddrive with maxtor powerdiag 3.04 and could not find the drive or any other drives connected. In the bios setup the drive is present. I removed all drives, cdroms, etc except the maxtor main hd and tried again with the same result. After placing in an ata100 controller card in to a spare pci slot and plugged the hd on to it, that the software sees the drive. The test finished and show the HD to be fine.
    The question is do I have a problem with the onboard contoller or with the new bios or both.
    When I first got this MB I did the same test with the original bios and the hd connected to the MB controller and the software had no problem seeing that and other drive connected.

    system software windows xp pro
    hard drive maxtor d740x-6l 60Gb ata133

    I'll stick with the V1.10, but I'd fell better if MSI showed me they actively update their systems by releasing updated BIOS files from time to time.
    I can't sell a 15000$ storage system that doesn't recognise the CPUs installed. The customer would laugh and tell me to come back with a supported system.
    Isn't this a VERY valid reason for wanting updates? Even if it only is an updated CPU list?
    The only reason I tried this MSI board is that it was the only one available with my retailer at the time I bought it with 3 PCI-X 100Mhz slots. Maybe I should go with a Tyan Thunder next time. Tyan at least show some activity.

  • My USB CF Card reader is not mounting on my 2.5 GHZ Intel Core i5 iMac anymore. It was last week and worked fine to get pictures from my camera. Now it won't mount. I have tried another card reader and the same problem exists. Also tried different cards..

    Hi
    My USB CF (Compact Flash) Card reader is not mounting on my 2.5 GHZ Intel Core i5 iMac anymore.
    Last week it worked fine to get pictures from my camera but now it won't mount at all.
    I ejected it in the correct way rather than just disconnecting it but now i cannot get it to remount!
    I cannot even see it in the disk utility or system profiler.
    I have tried another card reader (a brand new one bought today) and the same problem exists. I've also tried different cards to see if that made a difference and they still arent being picked up on the Mac. 
    I have done all the usual things like rebooting, unplugging all other USB devices and then trying but nothing has worked.
    I'm a photographer and I'm at my wits end here. I know the cards are fine as i have been using them without issue and they are also new.
    Note: If I plug the camera in directly to the Mac, the Mac picks it up just fine as it always has done. Its just the card readers that it wont pick up anymore.
    If anyone has any ideas at all other than the following (my so called friends advice) you'd earn my undting love:
    Buy a PC
    Use the camera (Thats why i bought the reader in the first place - importing RAW files from the camera is SLOW!)
    Replace your CF cards (I have three 8GB cards two of which i had never used til today and they dont work either!)
    Buy a new card reader (this is the 5th one in two days - none work on the Mac)
    Many thanks in advance!

    OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
    Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences  - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

  • I am having problem with my notifications bar and control centre bar. It doesn't work with sliding my fingers on the screen and when I restart the phone it works properly  but again after few days the problem persist? My phone is an iphone6 8.1.3

    notification bar and control centre not working by sliding on the screen and when u restart it works fine for 4-5 days then again the problem persists

    First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not help, set it up as new device, explained here:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    If still no luck, get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or contact Apple Support to get it serviced:

  • KT6 Delta - Core Centre seems to have broken it!

    My spec is as follows
    KT6 Delta motherboard
    AMD Athlon XP2600+
    Crucial DDR400 3200 512MB Ram
    160GB SATA hard drive
    Radeon 9700PRO
    Windows XP Home
    The machine has been running absolutely fine for months until I foolishly decided to press the auto button in core centre for optimising clocks etc.
    This resulted in the machine crashing followed by booting failure just after the Windows splash screen comes up.
    The machine will boot with another IDE disk - but after installation of XP the mouse fails to operate???
    As soon as the SATA disk is reconnected and configured as a non boot device, the same boot failure happens again.
    I have also tried resetting the CMOS to no effect.
    Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

    I had that problem due to my 9800PRO.Dont know why,but a fresh format needs to be done all underclocked and with a old cheap video card installed.After you load winxp and get everything working,load VIA drivers then put the ATI card in,load its drivers and you should be good to go.I did this on 2 machines so far with no problems.Don't know what it is about ATI and a fresh install,but it makes windows xp do weird stuff.I also found that setting the FSB and uping the ram to the correct MHZ also causes winxp problems when doing the install.That is why I leave it "ALL" underclocked until I get it loaded(win xp)then the VIA drivers next before installing the ATI card and it's drivers.
    You also said the mouse fails to operate.When I do a fresh install,I have to use the ps2 mouse adapter instead of the USB or the mouse will fail.
    I dont know if anything I said will help you or not,but I had spent hours and hours trying to figure out how to load up everything with my combo the correct way.FWIW,I had always had a problem with getting my ram to 400mhz setting with my combo.Tried BIOS flash,reformat,fresh install's of all drivers ect......After using the following procedure above,I could change the ram to the 400mhz where it needed to be and it was all because of an improper loading procedure that I could not find posted anywheres.
    Good Luck

  • Core Centre Question

    I have just updated both of my PC's to the latest 3.9 BIOS and also the latest edition of core centre (2.0.1.2), now in the PC that my other half uses, which is the same spec as mine (only way to build mine without getting major grief  ) except that she has Crucial XMS PC3200 memory, 2GB 4x512MB in matched pairs, I've now noticed that it runs at DDR400, as before I could only get it to run at DDR333. Thats running at stock settings in the BIOS, so a nice Improvment there.
    On my own PC, I've noticed that I'm able to get my own memory to run higher than before, and also the CPU runs a lot higher, (changing FSB only) another nice improvment!
    At the moment, mine is running at 2,53 GHz rock stable for the last few days 24/7 with the temp never exceeding 36c. The only thing that I've noticed is with core centre, which now says that it does not support my M/Board! (wind the CPU back down to say 222 Bus speed then it works fine, which is the 11% overclock in core centre - and no before you ask, my settings were done in BIOS, not via core centre utility)
    I'm not really complaining, dont get me wrong I think the improvment to the BIOS is a positive move. I just wonder if anyone else has noticed the problem with Core Centre and CPU overclock speeds.

    I agree, i've done mine the manual way also, I just used Core Centre as an easy way to monitor my temps and to adjust my cpu fan speed. my question was why overclocking the CPU caused Core Centre to report that it did not support my motherboard, and fail to load, but would load at moderate overclocks supported by Core Centre itself. Its not the end of the world type of thing, just me being curious thats all
