Core Center Problems & General Questions added

On boot up after installing core center on my PC, I get warning messages telling me that core center doesnt have the correct drivers installed, and that core center is not compatable with my motherboard.
I just bought a MSI K8N Neo4-F ... any suggestions?  This doesn't seem to be a common problem and I can't get any answers anywhere :(

After the proper bios adjustments and correct settings i can use corecenter to reach the maximium overclocking setting for this tool.
In bios i do have to set vcore at 1.45 and HT at 4x , disable agressive timings.
This way will lead to a fsb of 222, for my memory also without changing the timings leading to a 6600 score in sandra for memory.
My cpu will clock 2666 then.
Also i have to overvolt through corecenter for cpu and memory,both maxed out giving 2.85 for mem and 1.58 for vcore total.
Now i'm not running this since i don't need the extra heat and my games don't require it either,yet.
And i can run my cpu higher also,but that's not the issue.
It's a way to see with which settings you get more performance without messing up the bios.
Finding your way through it you can then set it in bios and forget about corecenter.
See it as a first step,because after that you can adjust memory timings to get more fsb over the 200mhz. thus finding a balanced setting that will give the most speed,because setting timings too loose will not always result in faster performance even if you can clock the mem higher.
Finally,you can also use clockgen to find your limits.This tool let me set the multiplier also to max out the cpu without compromising the memory.Also keep in mind that different cpu cores will give different results,you can't compare settings with different hardware after all.The venice core is a nice cpu for adjusting fsb settings which is for me a simple multiplier,also the memory divider on my board let me set a very high fsb if needed.Again,this is now a simple multiplier,it means nothing if i have it set at 230 or 340,i only have to bring down the cpu multiplier then to stay in spec and use the proper mem divider.

  • Core center problem at startup

    I recently installed a new soundcard (Audigy2ZS) and it's been causing problems with core center i guess?  When ever windows starts up it says "Servive has not been started"  followed by "No Hardware Monitors".  But when I load Corecenter individually it's fine.  Any ideas?

    its a common software conflict ... to solve
    run msconfig ... go to the startup tab .. disable the sbdrvdet ... (i think its called that) ... to stop it loading ... i believe its to do with firwire .. so not really required ... msi software should then run ok

  • Core center problems

    HI
    I have an MSI 865PE neo2 motherboard witch comes with the dinamic overcolocking technology (D.O.T)
    but when i install core center the red button to activate DOT does not apear.
    I wold like to know if there is any way to fix this
    because i know someone ho bought a motherboard similar to mine exept his board had gigabit lan. and he didn´t have the same problem his core center works perfectly.
    i wowld be grateful if you coud help me

    The first generation boards only had dynamic overclocking in the FIS2R model, which was the one with gigabit lan. I thought all the rev 2 boards had the feature. The revision (ver) number is shown between the PCI slots.
    If your board has this feature, the settings will be found in the bios. They use the army ranks to adjust the level.

  • MSI Core Center Problem with the software

    Hello all
    Just wanted to let you know about a problem i had the other night. You will see my specs below but i recently installed core center and all was running well until 2 nights ago when the pc would start up into windows load up core center and then re-boot. The problem was core center it's self when windows was starting it up for some reason core center decided to overclock my pc i only realised this when i saw a brief glimpse of the CPU speed as core center started it was over 2.6 GHZ no wonder the machine shutdown i eventually got it to boot up and get into core center where i found that this time it was trying to run my machine at a FSB of 215 i reset this back to 200 and the re-booting stopped i decided to just un-install core center to save any further problem.
    Have any of you guys had this problem and how many are having a similiar problem but don't realise it thinking it is the cpu or heat related just thought i would let you know about this in case anyone does have a similiar problem
    Cheers everyone

    i didn't even install it to tweak or overclock i was only using it to monitor my temps etc. seeing as it came on the installation disk did look at the overclocking features of it but after looking at them  i returned to the default settings prefering if and when i try overclocking to do it through the bios. I was surprised as anyone that core center decided it was going to overclock my system on it's own,  Maybe it's become self aware LOL
    I just put this thread up in case anyone else has it installed and has similiar problems as i did so they can check to see if this is their problem thought it might be helpful as i know lots of people do have problems and find there way here looking for help

  • MSI Core Center problem!!!

    I´ve just updated the MSI Core Center to ver 1.6.2.0 because 1.6.1.0 kept increasing and decreasing CPU fan speed all the time, got a bit annoying.
    After the install and restart of PC, when Core Center started, the PC automaticly restarted. Only way I can use my PC now is by dissabling Core Center, or going to older ver. but thats not the best solution.
    I have passiv coling on NB, but this havent caused problems before, and keeps a normal temp.
    MSI, i think u should look tthe Core Center program over, somethings wrong.
    Pardon my english (I´m from Sweden).

    hi khinax,
    Please give your signature (computer spec).
    Why you adjust the fan speed doesn't it run automatically with 3 pin?
    Use CC with not much problem.
    I use it for DOT with ver.1.6.1.0 which quit better than 1.6.2.0, this is the only software that can communicate with the COreCell.
    Work fine right now.

  • Bios or core center problem

    I resently flashed from 1.8 to 1.9 bios, and updated to latest corecenter. I was getting Aqua mark 3 scores of 53.500 and very happy, also running UT2004 and never crashing. Now since these updates all that has changeed. The CPU score in Aquamark is down 30% from 10,150 to 7060. UT2004 crashes after 5 to 10 minutes. Why Why Why would MSI do this to me?!?!?!?!?!
    I have not made any other changes or updates (except an update to ASUS smartdoctor which is working fine).
    I downloaded and flash bios 1.8 from the MSI site in DOS mode but after loading the raid drivers when I would normally see the first windows screen I got a black monitor and nothing else. So I ran the Bios rescue I had created when I update to 1.9 and now I'm back with 1.9 and all of the problems I just described.
    Please help, I would like to get back to 1.8 but I don't know it didn't work.

    Personally I don't think ATI cards suck, I've loved my 9600XT since I got it and had no real problems with it.  I've managed to get a significant performance increase with the use of the Omega Drivers and a significant overclock of the card, and I'm certain that my next card will be an ATI.  
    But anyway each to thier own, this is not a discussion over the best Gfx card, I'm just going to repeat my above suggestion, as I went from 35000 in Aquamark 3 down to 25000 when I changed my AGP appature from 128Mb to 64Mb.  At the end of the day he has nothing to lose trying this as if it works he avoids the risks associated with flashing the bios, if it does not work, only a small amoun t of time has been lost.

  • Core Center Problem

    Hi Guys,
    I just bought the K8T Neo.  I have a Athlon 64 processor with 1 G in RAM.  I've been trying to use the CoreCenter, which I already have the new version 1.5.5.0, but it's not working properly.  
    The gray window shows two additional options, 1 on the right > that is Temperature and Fan alarms settings and 1 on the left
    I have every driver or new software available in the msi website for my card, and I already tested.
    Thanks for any advice.
    Seranko

    I found something but I'm not really sure.  
    The step No. 1 at the website below is :
    Make sure your AMD Athlon64 Supports Cool'n'Quiet
    Cool'n'Quiet is the new developed technology of AMD PowerNow!, embedded in the AMD Athlon™64 processor. Under the normal circumstance, it can be enabled as long as the mainboard and BIOS support it. However, due to there are still some engineering sample processors sold in the market, we recommend buyer to check the model number first before buying it. Normally, as long as there is a "0" at the end of the model number, this CPU supports Cool'n'Quiet.   ?(
    The website is :
    http://www.msi.com.tw/html/e_service/techexpress/tech_column/6702/page11.htm
    My processor has the number ADA3200AEP5AP  ;(.  I've been trying to call AMD technical service all day (but they didn't answer  X() to ask is this version is newer or older.  In the Athlon AMD 64 +3200 processor manual, the only version or reference is 3.0 released on September, they don't show anything else.
    Please if somebody can help me I'll really appreciate it.
    Thanks,
    Seranko.

  • BIOS/Core Center Temps

    I'm slowly (not much available time) bringing my new KT6 Delta-FIS2R up. I have noticed that the Core Center CPU temp readout is 4-5 degrees C above the same item in the PC Health Section of the Bios. Because of the variety of Core Center problems that I see people writing in here forum with, I suspect that the Core Center is the monitor that's out of sync. Irregardless, is there a way to bring these two sources into agreement?

    Core Center, as well as PC Alert, reads about 4-5C higher than the real temp. Use Speedfan instead, much more accurate, and takes less space.

  • Question, NB fan in Core Center

    Hi,
    I have this question. In Core Center I have N/A in NB TEMP and 5443rpm in NB Fan Speed. Is this normal or there is something wrong?
    I tried to find it in other topics but didnt find this answer.
    Thanx

    Hi,
    its a K8N Neo2.
    MSI should have tested this, meaning, I think its wrong somewhere in my system.
    Anyone recognize this problem? I have looked in bios and dont really know all features in there, but with the users guide I have excluded some options.

  • Core Center Pro Problems w/MSI-9620v1 (K8N Master2-FAR)

    -Running XP as shown in sig,
    ---My issue is Core Center running on two User accounts, causes instabilities or maybe just false readings, resulting in Alarm/Shut Down. Shutting down and then jumping to BIOS's H/W Monitor shows it's not even close to my alarm settings, let alone critical. With the system temporarily being at the tattoo shop while sending his MoBo out for repairs, the two User accounts must be accessed on a regular basis, so fast switching/switch users is the preferred method log logging on.
    ---Originally I had issues with Core Center showing in Taskbar on all accounts other than mine/Admin, though it was a running process. Added. When I thought it wasn't loading, I started it (clickity-click on icon) and it automatically would say CPUs were overheated.
    ---Is there a fix that can allow the Core Center to run on two profiles, or am I going to have to shut it down when switching to another profile and open it when the other profile logs in? That would be a bit of a hassle for the other user. He's computer illiterate & would be happier jumping on the computer, searching craig's list or whatever, and then getting off the computer without having to click this, click that and click that before he logs on/off.

    Quote from: Bas on 16-January-12, 04:42:17
    I do not know many people that use CoreCenter.
    I stopped using it myself in the beginning, as you can simply set the fans in the BIOS.
    And the over-temp-shutdown is done by the BIOS automaticly so no reason to set in CC either.
    -Thanks Bas,
    ---I can't adjust anything but alarms in CC anyway, so I just use it for the advanced warning. Maybe it was a conflict between BIOS & CC that caused it, never checked to see if the settings were the same between the two User Profiles, but again the 2nd User profile is gone, so it won't be a problem for me any longer.
    ---So to me, your response sums it up. Wanted to do this first thing, but wanted to test them first and see if the fuss about OEM coolers was justified. Time to upgrade the CPU coolers; Well, at least the one for CPU2, nearest PCI-E1 (which is always 4°C-8°C higher than CPU1). I've notice temps have gone up 9°C on all (system, CPU1 & CPU2) since I first built the machine, but just wrote that off in thought as "the new BeQuiet! PSU is single fan where the Ultra was dual". Though they're clean to the eye (system is cleaned of all dust, what little there is due to intake filter) and they still show a steady 5900RPM, the CP1 fan shows intermittent (false I would imagine) report of 11k every great once in a while (not in BIOS though).
    ---In the good name of forum etiquette, I will search for recent cooler alternative topics and jump in. If none found, I will add to an old, unlocked thread... and if still none found, I will start anew.
    ---Thanks again,
    -SB-

  • Core Center 2.0.0.7 problems?

    Just updated to Core Center 2.0.0.7, but its causing problems.  For some odd reason Core Center won’t release so the system can shut down when asked
    to…  Couldn’t find 2.0.0.6, but did find 2.0.0.4 and installed it, no more problems shutting down.... hummmm.

    That's interesting,since the s3 sleep mode don't work on my system,it just locks up.
    I don't know why,since at first it did work,however,it's not that important to me.
    I do have installed back and forth the nvidia driver series for my mainboard to no avail.
    So i can't say if i can produce the same error.

  • Camileo charging problem (solved) and a general question!

    Hi all!
    First of all, I was going to ask for help as to why the Camileo S10 was not charging (the orange light wasn't flashing), and I'd seen a few people with similar problems.
    The solution?
    Give the contacts on the battery a clean.
    The insulation sticker that comes on it must leave some kind of residue on it, and it's enough to prevent charging. Now it's flashing away happily :]
    So my general question was, is it possible/advisable to use the camera on the mains?
    Rather than constantly draining and charging the battery during long shoots, I'd prefer to just leave it plugged in!
    Thanks very much in advance!
    Paul

    Hi
    I think the battery handling is always the same no matter what product it is
    From time to time the battery should be recalibrated.
    This means that the battery should be discharged fully and after then you should charge it again until the battery would reach 100%
    I do this with all my batteries; mobile phone battery, digi cam battery and notebook battery.

  • Problems with Live Update 3 and Core Center

    Hi All
    I have just put together the system listed below. On the first boot-up screen "Live Update 2" is displayed on the top right of screen. I installed "Live Update 3"  from the Drivers & Utilities  CD supplied with the Mobo. On rebooting, the computer crashes straight after loading Windows. The problem occurs even after I downloaded the latest version.
    I also installed Core Center from the same CD. This works fine until I try to switch user. It then comes up with the error "No Hardware Monitor Found" and crashes. The same thing happens after downloading the latest version.
    What could be causing this?
    Many thanks.

    Upgrade BIOS and see what happens...
