Can you identify this motherboard?

I've spent several hours reading through all the tech support docs I could find, but I'm still not sure which motherboard I have for sure.  Here is what I know:
--The motherboard has "K7T TURBO VER 3.0" stamped on it.
--There is a sticker on the VT82C686 chipset chip that says: "MS-6330 MS-LITE"
--The two Raid connectors and the J17 jumper (J17 = FSB jumper) were never soldered on!  The soldering connections are there, and they're labeled correctly, but the connectors themselves were never attached.  The K7T TURBO is supposed to have those connectors, and the motherboard manual assumes you can change the FSB using jumper J17.
--I have the latest BIOS installed (Award version 3.6 for K7T TURBO), but the only options on the Frequency/Voltage Control page in CMOS are "Auto Detected DIMM/PCI Clk" and "Spread Spectrum Modulated".  The motherboard manual for K7T TURBO states there should also be settings there to control the CPU Voltage and CPU/Clock ratio, etc.
--Yesterday I installed a new Athlon XP (Palomino) 1800+ CPU.  This CPU is supposed to run at 1.53 GHz, but the motherboard runs it at 1150 MHz, and I can't find a way to make it run faster.  The K7T Turbo board is supposed to allow it to run at 1.5 GHz.
I'm starting to think I have a prototype K7T Turbo board with a dumbed-down chipset, essentially making it equal to the MS-6330 "Lite" version (which, BTW, only runs as fast as 1.2 GHz... but it's not supposed to allow Athlon XP's to run either, so go figure...).  Of course there's no mention of a hybrid board like this anywhere I can find.
Anyone have a clue what's going on with my motherboard?  I'd like to get that CPU to run at 1.5 GHz instead of 1150 MHz because it's being used as a server.

Yes, I think that's my board, but without the optional RAID IDE connectors (the blue connectors in the lower left).
BUT, the BIOS doesn't have the same options as what the motherboard manual says, and it doesn't allow my 1800+ Athlon XP cpu to go higher than 1150 MHz; I should be getting about 1530 MHz.  The cpu/clock options in BIOS are missing, so I can't set the CPU/clock ratio to 11.5 (133 FSB x 11.5 ratio = ~1530 MHz).  And YES I do have the latest BIOS (Award ver. 3.6).
Plus the J17 jumper for FSB is not soldered on.
So again, it looks like a dumbed down K7T TURBO with an MS-LITE controller instead of the regular controller.
As a follow-up from yesterday, I was going to try turning the "High System Performance" option in BIOS on.  But unfortunately there IS NO option called that, even though the MB manual says there is.  So go figure.
I sent an email to MSI tech support, haven't heard back yet.  I may need to call them and talk to someone up their chain a bit before I find an answer.
Thanks for all the help everyone!

  • Can you identify this image gallery?

    Hi All,
    I client has asked me about the image gallery on this site, I wonder is anyone can identify it?

    What makes you think it's not custom? I'd guess that it is.

  • Customer Support: Can you identify this text message?

    Hi,
    Can someone from Verizon tell me why I got the following text and what it means:
    "//VZWVVM:SYNC:ev=NM;id=1;c=1;t=v;s=My Home Phone Number Here;dt=18/11/2014 14:53 -0500;l=9;dev_t=5"
    I have had 3 such undecipherable messages in the past few days (all a little different). They appear to be coming from Verizon.
    Thanks

    Yesterday afternoon I called my cell phone from a land line phone to leave a message to test the voice mail feature of the cell phone. The text I received, posted above, is a result of that voice message. It came in right after I left the voice message. I did not get an indication on my cell phone of that voice mail until this morning when I turned the phone on.
    It is still not clear to me why I got the text, or why it took so long for my cell phone to indicate that I had a voice message.

  • [Solved] Can you identify this font?

    What font do we have here?  My eyes seem to click with it nicely.  (And if not too off-topic, the theme?)
    I'd also like to greet and thank both the community and the developers.  Arch is a massive breathe of fresh air for a lifelong windows user.  Seriously, thank you!

    Absolutely, I agree.  It's what I currently use (along with a power-combo of Open Sans Semibold & Ubuntu for GUI/text).
    ANOKNUSA wrote:You posted a screenshot of the font. There are seven screenshots of the font on the website, plus the one you posted here. You seemed to think all those were fine, and didn't have a problem with the font until you installed it on your system with your font configuration. Maybe the typeface designer doesn't need to "take off the monocle and try to write/read something," since the font designer has obviously done that already, and there are clearly at least two people who think it's great. Just a thought. Another thought: HTML tags don't work on BBS boards.
    Thanks for the heads up on the tags.  I'll keep that in mind next time.
    Okay. I think you misunderstood a few things here. That's alright.  Please re-read my post in the context of it being an opinionated review. Note that the first metaphor is illustrating the disparity I experienced in 'seeing vs using' the font.  Also, assume the reader (you) to be the subject in the 'write/read' sentence.  As for the 2 people with opinions on record, well, I guess I'm glad to be the third.
    If you still require something a bit more objective or you need specifics on my font testing methodology or reassurance of a properly configured system, feel free to message me.

    Regarding receiving texts as emails:  Can you apply this setting to one individual? I want to continue to receive texts from everyone else except one person!

    Don't want to block the person, just have all his texts going directly to my email so that I can maintain a continuous record of his text contacts (rather than remain in text form).
    It appears that I must select an option that makes ALL texts go to email, which I'd prefer not doing.

    Is there anyone there? I hope there is someone who can you understand this problem and have the common sense to respond?
    I open gmail. I want to save an email to one of my folders.
    I position my cursor over the appropriate Folder icon or by choice, to the Trash.
    The friendly finger pointing cursor icon changes to an arrow icon.
    The hand icon allows me flawless access to opening and/or moving emails.
    The arrow, however does not open the link.
    On the Google menu bar the cursor hand with finger opens the links to Everett (my name), Search, Images, Maps and Play.
    When I attempt to open the remaining links in the menu bar (YouTube, News, Gmail, Drive, Calendar and More) the arrow icon replaces the hand. The arrow icon does not work. It will not activate these links.  Nor does it open email messages in the Inbox.
    Usually I reset, even reboot Safire and sometimes the problem goes away, then reappears.
    Can you imagine if this condition should it happen to a tech savvy Google Support person? Perhaps one can share and make my problem go away.
    I am considering dropping Google as my mail source. Unfortunate!

    I have uninstalled my Access Connection, but this problem seems to persist. IBM technician have changed the wireless card of my T60, the first few days after it was changed was very fine, no problem at all. About a week later, the problem occured again, and it happened quite frequently after that occurence. Now i really have no idea what is the cause and how to solve it. Will be greatful if there is anyone that can help me.

  • Hello , I want to ask some question about ipads \  How powerful is the iPad?  How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web? Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?   please help me :(

    Hello ,
    I want to ask some question about ipads \
    How powerful is the iPad? 
    How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web?
    Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?  
    please help me

    it's less powerful than your average computer. THink of it like a netbook but with a better processor.
    It'll do fine for surfing (although if you browse a lot of flash based sites you will need to get a third party browser since safari doesn't accommodate it)
    You may do OK on reading books, papers or magazines, especially if they have apps, but the ipad's screen is backlit, so it doesn't work well outdoors and you may need to fiddle with the brightness so that you don't get eye strain (it's just like doing too much reading from a computer screen)
    I would say the biggest short comings are data transfer. Apple's preferred work flow is that everything is done via iTunes or the internet....well people dont' always have 100% reliable always on internet access so you can find yourself in a situation where you can't get things on/off the iPad.
    By and large, it's a good device for day to day stuff, but is not a computer replacement.

  • In v.4 fonts look blurry. Can you solve this shortcoming ?

    Fonts look blurry in the overall menu in this new version of browser (v.4). I tried all the options that you specified with the ClearType an so on... It seems that the problem is not from Windows 7 because the old version looks ok. Can you solve this shortcoming ?
    Until you resolve it I'll stay with the previous version (3.6.16) which it looks really good.

    Yea, when I actually install my applications and launch them from GNOME Shell's menu or launcher the fonts look as blurry as they do when I launch them from Anjuta. Other applications look fine and with the workarounds I described above, my own applications display nicely too when launched from either GNOME Shell or Anjuta.
