CMOS Settings for KT3 Mainboard

Hi there,
Can anybody help me...
I have just upgraded my PC to an MSI KT3 motherboard, with a 2.2Ghz AMD AthlonXP+ processor (266FSB) and 1Gb of PC333/2700 DDR Ram...
The problem is that the system will only recognise my processor as a 1500 AthlonXP+ running at 1.35Ghz and only 512Mb of RAM...
Can somebody let me know the CMOS settings to get my system working to what it should be... I dont want to overclock, just to get it working...
I have tried changing the CPU FSB Clock to 133Mhz but then the system doesnt boot... Maybe there is something else I have to do which I dont know about...
Many thanks,
Tim

do you know what this processor is? XP? Sempron?

I dont think it the PSU. The power output for 3.3v & 5v is 200W and for 12v its 400W...
As far as I am aware this is not the problem...  The computer is EXACTLY the same as before except I have put in a different MB with different RAM...  The previous MB was a PC Chips board with SDRAM...
Is your problem caused by your PSU?

  • Best BIOS settings for Kt3 Ultra2 and Geforce4?

    Hi,
    Can someone tell me what the best BIOS settings would be for my KT3 Ultra2 running a Geforce4 ti4200?
    I get crappy scores in 3dMark2001 SE and I have the infamous stuttering/crashing problems in 3D games.  I've tried pretty much every configuration of settings and drivers I can think of.  
    I saw on these forums that the Kt3 Ultra2 can be a bit fussy with GF4 cards.  If someone could post the best BIOS settings for performance and stability I'd be eternally grateful.
    Alternatively, email me at [email protected] with them.
    Thanks in advance

  • After FLash, won't save CMOS settings, trys to boot from network

    MS-6712 board, flashed BIOS, now 7/29/03 v1.9, with AMD XP 2500 Barton.
    Win XP, plain old home computer on dialup.
    I flashed BIOS, now it will not let me enter BIOS by pressing DEL key.
    It boot to screen that says "Press to display network boot option
    If you ignore, it says "Try network boot first, then local drives" and goes to a screen CMOS settings wrong. F1 to enter setup, F2 to load defaults"
    If you SHift-Tab, it says press R for RPL, P for PXE, any key to load local drive.
    No matter what you press, it comes to the CMOS Setting wrong screen.
    I flashed BIOS, CTRL-HOME back to old BIOS - same message, so then and back to new one again, etc.  I did a FIXMBR and FIXBOOT in windows XP.  No luck. The problem is that even after setting up BIOS to boot from hard drive, etc, ad save changes and restart, it won't remember the settings.  The battery is also testing at proper volt.  I did just replace bad RAM after upgrading to AMD 2500, but it was fine before I flashed.  PLEASE HELP!!!!  By the way, I can understand technical instructions and PC terms (I think)

  • GX700 CMOS Settings Wrong

    Hi
    I have a gx700 but it doesn't work.
    when I try to start it it shows me these errors:
    CMOS Settings Wrong
    CMOS Date/Time Not Set
    Press F1 to Run Setup
    Press F2 to continue with fail-safe setting
    But the problem is neither F1 nor F2 works. When I press them nothing happens.
    And I also tried to enter Setup by pressing DELETE before this error shows up. It does not enter Setup. It shows the same error like I have never pressed DELETE.

  • Cmos settings are lost when unplugged

    Every time my computer is unplugged the cmos settings are gone when I restart. It's been like this since I got it 2 weeks ago. I thought flashing the bios with the latest version might help but it didn't. The battery voltage is 3.504V.

    A weak battery can still have the correct voltage and still be bad due to not supplying the correct amount of current. There is another possible solution. Remove your battery jumper and put it back on again. You may have a bad connection. The same holds true for the battery clip. If those don't solve it then you may want to pop for a new battery.

  • Best Settings for Athlon 1700 + (no overclock) and other issues...

    Hi!
    The solution for my last problems sent me into other questions.
    1 - What are the best settings for an Athlon XP 1700+ and a KT3 Ultra Aru?
    2 - Athlon XP is anounced to have 266 fsb, but in bios you can change only to 220! Anyway, in the kt333 chipset specs says it has 266 fsb...
    I'm confused:
    What is the difference from the fsb in the athlon XP specs and the board Specs?
    3 - Raid: Don't believe this is in the manual...
    Do you know of issues regarding overheating problems in hdd over 60 gb size? I've heard that there are problems because of the high rotation (7200 rpm)...
    Anyway, i wanted to mount my raid for Professional Audio Recording... I guess i'll wait for ATA133 drives in Portugal...
    4 - USB 2 and Windows 98:
    Are there any drivers for 98se or do i have to stuck with usb 1?
    Thanks in advance!

    hi
    133 is your cpu speed 266 is ddr ram speed
    i think ata 133 is a bit of nonsense
    quickest disks i know are wb with 8 mb cache
    they run hot ,case fans and consider hd coolers
    try via website for drivers not sure

  • CPU support for KT3 Ultra2?

    Mainboard manual says that fastest supported CPU is AMD XP 2200+ 1,8GHz (=Thoroughbred).
    Board homepage says that 2700+ is the fastest supported CPU
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=341
    CPU Support page says that fastest supported CPU is XP 3000+ 333MHz:http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_cpu_support_detail.php?UID=341
    So the question is which is the fastest supported CPU? I'd like to get a confirmation before buying any...

    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=11 says that BIOS update 6380ev57.exe supports "AMD Barton XP3000+ (FSB333) CPU (For KT3 Ultra2 Only)" and warns that "This BIOS is intended for MS-6380E PCB with KT266A & KT333 chipset. K7T266 Pro2 & K7T266 Pro2-RU don't use the same.
    Go to the URL and make double sure that you are looking at the correct motherboard version.

  • Best BIOS Settings for Performace?

    Hi Guys,
    I am new to all this PC stuff, i was a mac user for the last 8 years. At the moment i am learning all this stuff on the Bios - can anybody help me out give me the best settings for my PC (without overclocking)? I understand if i disable cool n quiet - i will get better performance.
    my info:
    AMD 64 3200+
    K8T Neo FIS2R Mainboard
    2 x 512MB DDR400 (1 gig totalling) Kingston
    9600XT Bravo (powercolor) 128MB
    550W Antec True Power Supply
    TT Venus 12 CPU Fan
    Idle - 36 - 37c
    Full load - 41 - 45c
    I ran the 3dmark03 (demo) and the score came up 4005 - i am not sure if this result is how it should be but i really think its slow compared to my mate's 2600 XP running 9700pro and getting a score of around 5500.
    Any suggestions/tips would be appreciated.

    3dMark03 is very GPU-demanding, and your mate's 9700pro is a faster card then your 9600XT.
    Try runing 3dMark01 and it whill test the hole system more or less.
    About biossettings I'm to new to A64 to give any suggestions, but memory timing have big effekt on preformens.

  • CMOS Settings Wrong - NEED HELP FAST

    I've had my MSI K8T Neo FSR Motherboard for about 3 weeks now. It booted up fine with windows xp and then all of the sudden on a boot up it brought up an american megatrends sign that said "CMOS Settings Wrong"   I thought it was just the battery and it was bad because of a bad engineering so i matched batteries and radioshack and bought a new one. Worked fine after resetting CMOS settings but after the turn of the date THE CMOS SETTINGS HAD TO BE RESET again and again, and everyday after this. Does anyone know my problem?
    System SPECS:
    MSI K8T Neo FSR Motherboard
    RAIDMAX Cobra w/420w psu
    ATi Radeon X800 PRO
    Artec 16x DVD ROM DRIVE
    80 GB SATA Hard Drive (1)
    512 Kingston Value RAM
    512 Premium RAM
    Athlon 64 2800+ w/512k cache
    Can anyone help me?

    Hi
    The rig won't run slower at DDR333, that does not control clock, that is done by northbrigde within the CPU. It will depend on the quality control at stickmakers, as to how the RAM performs. The AMD64 demands standards that most stick makers have not bothered with, but advertise their products with them.
    You can try memtest86 and see if any errors are reported, if you get a lot of errors over 512MB then stick 2 is suspect, and vice versa, if you get errors run each on its own. You should get less errors at 333, and a more stable system. You can also raise the DDR volts in Volts/ Freq in bios, the box will go red when you reach max recommended volts, try it 1 setting under the red.
    Bios 1.9B2 is here

    Hello All...
    Back after a brief absence, things look a little bit different.
    I'm trying to take a 16 minute mini dv video and compress it for use on the web. I'm interested in any suggestions you may have on settings for the video and audio tracks. I've tried using Sorenson 3 (15 frames, key frames set to automatic, 320 x 240) for video and IMA 4:1 (mono) for audio. The resulting video looked great but the file size came in at about 255 Mb.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the replies.  Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems.  I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work.  I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic.  When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones.  This actually helped.  I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems.  I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac.  I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed.  Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else. 
    If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio.

  • ITunes looses photo sync settings for Apple TV (1st gen.)

    Since the update to the new Photo app on my Mac, iTunes forgets the photo sync settings for my Apple TV (1st. generation, 160 GB HDD).
    Every time I open the photo section of the Apple TV sync settings, all the options are turned off. Then I mark a couple of albums and sync the Apple TV >> all album appear on the Apple TV.
    But after closing and re-opening iTunes in the photo settings everything is unmarked again. So on every following sync the photos on the Apple TV are easily erased :-( Resync them to the Apple TV takes hours (>30'000 photos!).
    All the other sync settings in iTunes remain intact.
    Environment:
    - MacBook Pro Retina 15" with the latest SW (Mac OS, iTunes, Photo App, etc.)
    - Apple TV 1st gen 160 GB HDD

    Restarting iTunes resolves the issue in the majority of cases, if it doesn't my second guess would be your security software.
    What really seems strange here is that there have been no updates since well before Xmas, so after initially setting it up, the first update would have brought you right up to the most recent (and indeed the very last) .
    Agh, how silly of me, I see it's iTunes you have updated.
    If that's about all you've changed, you might want to try reinstalling iTunes and bonjour.

  • Different rich text/plain text settings for different accounts?

    I use Mail for both my work email (MS Exchange) and my personal email (webmail/IMAP). Many of my coworkers use Outlook's rich text formatting options, so I need to have my work emails go out as rich text. However I'd like to have my personal emails go out as plain text.
    I can set Mail to create new messages in plain text, but to reply in the same format of the original message. That takes care of everything EXCEPT when I compose a new message using my work address... in that case it goes out as plain text, and my coworkers complain that they can't use formatting, because their copies of Outlook are in turn configured to reply in the same format as the original message.
    So ideally what I'd like is to have two different formatting settings for my two different accounts. Anyone know how this might be done? Any plugins, etc., that might accomplish this?

    Since you are running Jaguar, Jaguar and Panther Mail do not support composing in HTML and this includes when forwarding a message received that was composed in HTML.
    Since Jaguar and Panther Mail do not support composing or forwarding HTML, you can't embed images or photos in the message body anyway.
    RTF with Tiger Mail is really HTML and although Tiger Mail does not include an HTML composer/editor, you can copy/paste HTML format from a web page and forward HTML received.
    Images/photos and single page PDF attachments are revealed as inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default which cannot be turned off. This applies to received and sent messages which is not the same as being embedded. Embedded requires HTML and an embedded attachment is not a true attachment. All Mail.app versions render HTML received but you cannot attach a photo or image as embedded with Jaguar or Panther Mail so it doesn't matter if you use RTF or Plain Text in regards to photo/image or single page PDF attachments which appear as inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default regardless.
    When you use Plain Text for message composition, the receiving mail client renders the text in whatever font the reader chooses.
    IMO, everyone should use Plain Text for message composition. Messages would be boring to some but the majority if not all problems experienced with email would be eliminated if HTML was banned from message composition.
