Can't Play Lan Games With MSI K8N

Hi. Went down my mates for a bit of lannage only last time i went down their with my PC. I was using a Asus K8V-SE with no problems and win 2k . Now with the MSI K8N-Neo and XP it says we have a connection in windows and if we unplug it says the connection is unplugged so we know that it is working but I make a LAN game on any game and he cannot see it at all to connect. Drivers for everything on my PC are up to date including latest nforce and his PC is still the same (nforce 2/2500-M) yet he cannot see my game to connect. Fire-wall is also turned off in network manager. Theres a option though which is blank that says "current ethernet adress" do i have to fill this in so he can see my game?

i had a similar problem with internet games for freelancer, it would time out. I found out that some games don't like 2 tcp/ip adapters, and since in windows the IEEE1394 can be used as a tcp/ip adapter you could to 1 of two things.
1. Disable the Firewire Connection
2. Bridge the Ethernet and Firewire connections
now i'm not saying this will fix your problem but it's worth a shot isn't it.

  • Play video games with MSI VOX USB?

    Hi,
    I am interested in getting the MSI VOX USB 2.0 External TV Box and I am just wondering if I can play video games such as Playstation 2 with my laptop using this tv tuner. I heard some tv tuners have the "delay" make them useless to play video games. Does MSI VOX USB have this "dealy", and how is the the picture quality while playing video game with this tv tuner?
    Thanks in advance.
    Jim

    Hiya,
    I dont really understand the VoxBox but I've just inadvertadly managed to put the PS2 on my laptop by plugging the video/audio cables into the converter and then into a USB port, and although it did work, and there wasnt a delay or anything, the quality was poor compared to a TV and also it flickered a bit so I'm not sure it would work that well- but that may have just been my computer playing up. Definitely possible though. Sorry I cant offer much more advice!

  • Can't play some games with 7.0.4 - can't play videos without it!

    My son has been having troubles playing Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 on his powerbook for awhile now - it would crash on opening. We experimented last night, and discovered on the game site that they recommended not using Quicktime 7.0.4 for this issue. We downgraded to 7.0.1, and the problem is fixed. Now, however, he can't play the videos he has downloaded from the iTunes site without 7.0.4! Any suggestions or workarounds?

    I'm currently playing RTC3 with QT 7.0.4. To prevent a crash when you start a new level wait a short while--about 30 seconds--before doing anything. I fought this same problem for a while, and was on the verge of returning the game after power cycling four times to recover from the crashes.
    Since I've started waiting a bit, I haven't had a single lockup when entering a level. The key to the game is patience, it seems, though that's hard to manage sometimes.

  • Since up dating my Firefox I can not play any games on Facebook they all run very slow, can someone please help me with a solution.

    Since up dating my Firefox I can not play any games on Facebook they all run very slow, can someone please help me with a solution.It mainly seems to be with games.

    RE: "P.S. I  found it aggravating that I couldn't copy and paste text  here, it wanted me to insert as a link or an image, how do you insert plain  text?"
    I take it you tried using the "right click" menu?   That doesn't seem to work, as you noted, but, you should be able to paste text by pressing your CTRL key  and while holding it down, press the "V" letter  key.
    CTRL + C = COPY
    CTRL + X = CUT
    CTRL + V = PASTE

  • Is my speaker system compatible with MSI K8N SLI Diamond?

    Hi!
    Can I use my old speaker system with MSI K8N SLI Diamond. My speaker system is Creative Inspire 5.1 5500D Digital with decoder. Now 5.1 sound doesn't work properly. When I try look movie with PowerDVD6, center speaker is dead and no speech on movie. On PowerDVD6, SPDIF output is selected and tried also 6.1 channel options but no, speech will not play at center speaker. Some games too 5.1 surround doesn't work. I have connected my speaker system on motherboard coaxial SPDIF to speaker systems Decoder coaxial SPDIF, and speakers on that decoder. Do I have to buy new analog speaker system to get 5.1 surround working? If I connect my speaker system directly on MB analog outputs, sound balance in very bad, rear and front speaker is good but center speaker crackling and speech at center speaker sound like volume level is much too high.

    Quote from: Stick on 10-February-06, 19:24:28
    if you know that the speakers are working (tested on another pc) it is usually a software configuration error. if the decoder would mess up the sounds, it is unlikely that you would hear anything in the other speakers too.
    My speakers systems works perfect my previous setup, when motherboard has nForce2 SoundStorm integrated chip.
    Some other forums, peoples claims that this MSI k8n motherboard can't send multichannel 5.1 surround audio on SPDIF and I have to connect my speakers on motherboard analog sound outputs.

  • Can i play pogo games on a new mac ?

    can i play pogo games on a new mac ?

    Yes,There Are Ways You Can Play Windows Games On A Mac,It`s Called The W.I.N.E. Project And The WINE Project Allows You To Operate Windows Programs On A Mac And Linux System.Remember That The WINE Project Can Be Unstable At Times,And May Cause Your Mac To Freeze Up.The Best Way To Play Windows Games On A Mac Is By Using Something Called VMware Unity.It`s An Emulator That Can Emulate 3D Windows Games.Below Is Some Instructions On How To Get It And Set It Up.
    -------VMWare Unity
    1.Go To The Official Vmware Website And Go To The Vmware (Mac) Section.
    2.Find The VMware Workstation For Mac And Download It.
    4.After Downloading VMware,Install It.
    5.Open Vmware Workstation
    6.Before You Create A New Virtual Machine,You Need To Have A Clean Copy Of Windows XP Or Higher.
    7.After That,Create A New Virtual Machine That Has Enough RAM And CPU To Emulate The Game You Want To Play.
    8.Start The Virtual Machine And Install Windows.
    9.After Installing Windows On The Virtual Machine And Your On The Windows Desktop,Install The VMware Additions.
    10.After That,ALWAYS RESTART THE VIRTUAL MACHINE.
    11.Install The Game You Want,Have A CD or ISO Image.
    12.After Installing The Game,Start The Game In The Emulator And Look For A Button That Says "Unity Mode" And Click It.
    13.After That,All The Applications You Were Running In The Virtual Machine Will Go Right To Your Mac Dock And You Can Play The Game Right On Your Mac Desktop.
    14.When Your Finished With Your Game,Close It And Open The Main VMware Application And Click "Stop Unity" And It Will Restore All Programs To Virtual Machine Desktop And There You Can Power Off Your Virtual Machine.
    Vmware Is Way More Stable Than The WINE Project And I Suggest Trying That.If You Need Some Help With This On Your Mac Then Add [email protected] To Your Contacts And I Can Help You Set It Up On TeamViewer.I Hope This Helps And Tell Me If It Does!

  • I can't play some games I used to be able to

    My laptop is running very slow compared to what it used to run when I first got it. I also can no longer play a game that I used to play all the time. I didn't use my laptop for a while and started using a desktop, but now that I no longer have access to the desktop I have to use my laptop again. Since I started using it again it runs very slow and I can't play games on it very well. I have even tried deleting a lot of files on my computer, doing a disk clean up and defragment, shuting it down, restarting it, and nothing seems to help. I know I should be able to play most games with my laptop, but can't seem to play any now.
    Sincerely,
    David Smith

    It sounds like you are on the right track for the maintenance.
    Below is a document you can check to make sure you haven't missed anything that you'd like to check.
    You may also want to make sure your computer is up to date - out of date software and drivers can make a computer run poorly.   The tools mentioned in the document(s) below will help you make sure your computer at its best.
    HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - Increasing System Performance Without Adding Memory (Windows Vista)
    Improving System Performance without Adding Memory (Windows 7)
    If you have done everything you can think of and the computer is just not performing like you think it should, then there may be something running on the system that should not be there.  Maybe a program is "stuck in a loop" and stealing resources from the rest of the programs that need to run and it is making everything run slower.
    Stuck programs tend to show themselves in different ways -- if a program is stealing too much cpu time, then it climbs to the top of the list of running programs and shows itself as grabbing most of the available CPU resource.  Other programs languish and the whole computer slows down to a crawl -- nothing gets done and it is obvious that something is "just wrong".
    Here are two tools you can use to investigate how the computer uses it's resources -- and how to tell when something is not working as it should:

  • Can I play the games that I purchased on my ipad on my imac?

    Hello,
    I was wondering if I am able to play the games that I purchased on an older ipad on my iMac that I now have?   If, I can how do I get the games downloaded from the ipad to the iMac onto my iMac?  Any help that someone would be very appreciated!
    Thank you,

    You can't play iOS games on desktop computers - there aren't iOS simulators for casual people.
    Nevertheless, some games (Chopter 2, Angry Birds etc.) have a desktop (OS X) version of the same game. Some can even play multiplayer with the iOS version. They, generally, aren't very pricey either.

  • MOVED: Using 4xsata drives with MSI K8N NEO2

    This topic has been moved to AMD64 nVidia Based board.
    Using 4xsata drives with MSI K8N NEO2

    Hi , yes unfortunately it's true !
    Sata ports 3/4 is the fully nforce3 native chipset integrated (uses nvidia integrated PHY).
    Use only theese if overclocking .
    Satallink clock will be retained at 100mhz always .
    Sata ports 1/2 are bridged from the nvidia chipset to an external marvell PHY .
    Theese ones can not be used with HTT ref clock beyond ~230mhz +/- a few mhz without producing data corruption .
    Satalink ref clock of 100mhz will scale upwards with increased HTT .
    This issue applies to all nforce3 250GB/Ultra based motherboards with more than 2 sata ports regardless which vendor/make/model.
    It's the chosen hw design that is the issue and no bios ever will fix it .
    If you must have 4 sata drives , do like me and install a pci SIL sata controller card for the drives used for storage .
    Take Abit NF8 (nf3) as an example .It has only 2 sata ports .
    Why ?
    Only the true/fully chipset integrated sata ports is used .
    Although the nforce3 chipset supports a sata link to an external PHY for port 3 and upwards some has chosen to not utilize it .
    Nforce 4 chipset has corrected this hw design by adding more sataport by the link to external phy .
    In nf4 four ports are fully/true chipset integrated , and does not suffer from this overclock barrier .
