DKA790GX Platinum No POST

I just put everything back together from not using it for a few months.  The system turned on and booted into windows.  I restarted and went into bios, and now when I try to start the computer it doesn't POST.  The video card fan just spins at full speed.   I have a PCI diagnostics card and it gives me error E6- "To enable floppy and timer IRQ, enable internal cache."  I have tried to clear CMOS multiple times with the same result.  I will rebuild and try different ram sticks now, but would like to know if anyone has any input...
System is:
MSI DKA790GX Platinum bios 1.8
Phenom II x3 720
OCZ Platinum 2 x 2gb 1066mhz
Sapphire 4870 1gb
Corsair TX850W
Fixed- I think the video card was not properly seated, sorry 

That would cause the system not to boot.  Good troubleshooting and no need to be sorry.

  • MSI DKA790GX Platinum and AM3 CPU - BIOS Update

    Hi,
    I am going to upgrade my current computer from an older AMD socket 939 setup to an AMD Phenom II based system
    I am thinking of the MSI DKA790GX Platinum motherboard and AMD Phenom II X3 720 (Black edition) CPU (AM2+ Motherboard and AM3 CPU), but I need to clear up the BIOS update for AM3 issue before buying the components.
    The motherboard advertisement states that the BIOS has to be upgraded to support AM3 CPU
    My issue is this: I do not have an AM2/AM2+ CPU, and I am looking to jump right into buying an AM3 CPU - so will the unit power-up/POST with the combination of the newer AM3 CPU and older BIOS to allow me to update the BIOS using either FDD or Bootable USB Pen in a DOS environment?
    Does anyone have any knowledge or experience of this? Any help on this would be appreciated
    Thanks

         The 1.74 Bios is one I got from MSI tech support.  We're trying to work through a problem with my new board. nothing major, but we're not quite there yet.
    I know that Nvidia was The chipset to have for several years, but I think AMD has upset that applecart a bit with the 780 & now 790 chipsets, and with Intel
    getting into the chipset game as well, Nvidia could see some rough times ahead.  They may even end up dropping out of the chipset game, since Intel's new CPUs have the memory controller built on die.  Hence, Intel has no real need for NVidia any more, Nvidia may end up just focusing on the video card market, unless?
         My board defaults to 800mhz as well and I'm running a 720. You have to keep in mind that they have to make the boards default to the lowest common denominator as not everyone runs 1066 capable memory on their board (even though Manufacturers may spec the memory so). I also have to manually bump up the voltage, as well as timings and ratio for 1066.  But, my Mushkin ram plugged in and booted with no problems, but I did have to bump up the voltage and tighten up the timings even at 800.
    Interesting (Abut BIOS version 1.74). I guess it is not yet available for downloads.
    So now Intel CPU's have the memory controller on the die (just like AMD). So does this prove as an advantageous concept? I expect Intel to implement better memory management than AMD. AMD drops speed when all 4 memory banks are occupied... what is the use of utilizing max RAM capability if memory controller cannot sustain the max RAM speed?
    I may agree with you on the concept that motherboard should support the lowest (RAM) denominator...
    However if someone uses lower than 1066 MHz sticks, system should detect accordingly, and when 1066 sticks are used, auto-detect as 1066... I still do not see the issue here. On former nVidia based boards like my MSI K9A Platinum SLI (with an AMD X2 CPU), 800 MHz modules are detected as 800 on auto, no need to manually tweak anything in BIOS. I still have to see an nVidia EPP profile enabled board which is claimed to auto detect 1066 MHz capable memory sticks by default.
    On my system it is also the same... I have to up the RAM voltage to 2.2V (otherwise system is not stable), as well as setting up the timings and of course the RAM/FSB speed ratio to 1:2.66.
    I am running currently 4 chips of OCZ platinum 2 GHZ (for a total of 8 GB RAM, for 64 bit Vista and Linux). Also with mine (as we know Phenom II does not support 4 sticks of 1066 MHz) it drops to 800 MHz. As well as, I needed to bump the voltage to 2.2 V... otherwise in the middle of operation, system reboots. We know what this is about, dont we ?

  • MSI DKA790GX - Platinum + Raid 5

     
    Hi all, I'm new to this in the forums:), my name is Marcos Luburic, and hope to have a good experience with all of you who are part of this forum in its entirety.
    I would like to share with you a case, I've been dragging about 2 years ago from my computer que arme me. We at the beginning, I assemble a PC, and I put the Mother-DKA790GX Platinum MSI, AMD Phenom X3 8650, MSI ATI Radeon HD 4850 heat pipes, 2x2 GB RAM ocz ...
    The question is never, even today, I was clear, and able to do RAID 5 on my system, taking into account ke I have 4 hard disks of 500GB each ...
    elsewhere, appears ke I can use pen drives, a floppy drive, I have to update the BIOS ... many things, and not to do, and 2 years ago that I have a PC, and honestly I'm not making full use as you see ... and the machine was assembled, almost with the thought of him RAID 5 ...
    I hope answers about this, I am aware, and already, THANK YOU!!

    of course, did everything but 1in First, I have the full 64-bit capable system, ie, memory, video card, motherboard, processor, all that is ready for 64 bits, so I should put Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit?
    It's like I said in my last post. So long as you have 64-bit software to run then go ahead.

    the second, before I bore the logo of the MSI motherboard, the logo of the monster that ... is like now, it takes much longer to load than before, no power to make the sign that says "press Ctrl + F to go Raid options?
    I would say it's normal to take longer now you have RAID enabled.

    and another thing, when the bios environments, there appears no hard drive recognized, only the floppy, the dvd player, and another that says "Raid: Raid Ary 1" and then the other 3 discs rigid or appear, I hope answers, I hope I know how to respond because there is something strange
    I would imagine that because it says, 'RAID: RAID Ary 1', it has combined the drives rather than listed them individually.

    ahh, and to install the windows drivers over raid called "AMD AHCI Compatible RAID Controller" do not know if this good ... and then when we had to press "next" to install windows would not let me, then I did remove the pen drive, and if I let myself go there with installation ... things that do not understand lol
    I'm struggling to understand quite what you mean here.

  • DKA790GX won't POST

    Hi.. my situation is, I bought a new Phenom II X4 965 C3 125watt processor and 4gb(2gbx2) G.skill Trident DDR2-1066. I tested it on my board which is a DKA790GX Platinum but it won't post.
    i tested the RAMs on my friend's PC and its working.
    It was also weird, the 1st time i powered on my PSU The PC powers itself too... without having to press the power switch.
    I tried pressing the clear cmos and now its, back to normal (have to press power key to turn on the PC)
    after turning it on, i can see/hear the FANS, Hardisk and CPU Fan functioning but there is no display on the screen. Please Help.
    specs:
    MSI DKA790GX Platinum v1.2

    Go to your dealer and put a support CPU in and flash it.
    are you sure its version related, cause i will try to beg my friend to lend me his procie? i have a bios updater flash disk which i made using the steps MSI made for flashing the BIOS. Can i do it that way? I bought this mobo from a faraway seller... i have to ship it to have it reach their office. I have a friend who has a Athlon X2 5500 CPU. can i try using that?

    thank you!

    right..  thanks guys! 
    Fredrik - hmm..  yes, the 5000 does sound good.  i only went for the Phenom II because i thought it was a modern chip style, and therefore the best option to go for. if i had seen that the 5000 was a good competitor for it earlier, i would probably have gone for it.   i am too eager to get this pc set up though lol!  so i am going to stick with the chip when it arrives tomorrow.  
    Mike - i hear what you are saying about the corsairs.  i will start saving.  i need to save for a gfx card also.  for the minute, i will be running the onboard graphics, so my psu hopefully will cope untill i upgrade! 
    thanks again guys.  your advice is very much appreciated.      

  • DKA790gx platinum bios problem

    I tried to update my bios using Live Update in order to upgrade to an AM3 processor. I flashed the bios within windows 7 (64 bit) and restarted my computer. When I got to the checksum error screen, i accidently hit F2 to load defaukt settings insteaed of hitting F1 to load the bios setup and load the optimized settings. after a reboot, i loaded the optimized settings.
    However, whenever i started windows, it would load all the way to my desktop, then freeze. After talking to support, I was told to clear my CMOS, which i did, to no avail. Then was told to try a clean install of Windows. However, when i try to reinstall, it freezes during the final step. Now, I have no windows installed (since it errored) and cannot reinstall.
    I'm guessing i need to reflash my bios, or install an earlier version? But, without windows, I'm not sure how to go about flashing. The only advice i can find on the msi website is for earlier windows versions (xp, 98, etc.) Any advice on how I can proceed from here? I'm kind of stuck and I have a brand new shiny 1090t sitting on my desk teasing me....
    Thnks

    Sorry about that, should have known better.

  • DKA790GX Platinum BIOS-settings?

    I´ve recently upgraded my previous AMD X2 +4200 processor to a +6000. Everything seems to be working fine except Cubase 5 which now crackles, stutters and the ASIO-meter shoots through the roof. I know I maybe should be posting this in a Cubase-related forum, but I don´t think the problem is with Cubase itself. Before the CPU-switch everything was working just fine. After failing to find a solution I then opted to exchange my mainboard (from a MSI K9N platinum to a MSI DKA790GX Platinum) in hope that this would solve the problem. It did not.
    I´ve gotten suggestions for problems with cpu, memory, graphicscard, harddrives and god knows what.
    I´m a little confused as to where to start changing things?
    Are there any general suggestions for BIOS-settings for this mobo that any of you have to share?
    I´m now running it in fail-safe mode.

    Quote from: Fredrik on 07-May-09, 20:45:35
    Since the sound problems was not connected to processor or motherboard... Speaker, interfering signals (cell and cordless phones!!), CuBase/Windows (but crackle whatever that is is not easily associated to software).
    Will check, but it seems unlikely since nothing´s changed regarding cables, power or physical position of hardware (speakers, interface or otherwise).
    I should say that I previously used Windows XP Pro SP3 and recently switched to XP Home SP3, but since I´ve used the older processor with both OS´s and have had no problems that shouldn´t be the problem either. Besides, I´ve never heard of any problems/differences with audiointerfaces when switching from XP Pro to XP Home or vice versa as long as all drivers updated properly.

  • DKA790GX Platinum RAM questions

    Hello everyone.  I've done quite a bit of thinking about what direction to take for my next computer and I've decided that I really like the features that the DKA790GX Platinum motherboard has to offer.  However, I've heard some people say that they've had issues when dealing with DDR2 1066 RAM not on the MSI board specifically, but other 790GX based motherboards.  Will DDR2 1066 run in dual channel mode with a Phenom processor installed?  Some people have said that it wouldn't.  I plan on getting 2x2GB chips for a total of 4GB of RAM if that information will be of use.  Secondly, I've been eyeing some of the high end Mushkin memory since I've had nothing but great luck with them.  This memory uses 2.0 - 2.1 volts.  I don't think it would be a problem, but the motherboard specs specifically say that 1.8v memory is the standard supported.  Do you think that all will be well when using the higher voltage memory?
    I guess I have one more question before signing off that doesn't have much of anything to do with RAM.  I'm foregoing getting a Windows OS for this computer initially due to the possibility that MS will be releasing Windows 7 on the market sooner than anticipated (supposedly in the first half of next year).  If that OS turns out to be a great deal better than Vista, I'd rather just purchase an OS once rather than upgrade 6 months or so later.  Having said that, I plan on using Linux (Ubuntu 8.04) until I can make a good decision on which version of Windows to support.  How would I go about upgrading my BIOS since I won't have a Windows OS initially?  I just looked through the readme and it still says to use an ME or 98 boot disk to flash the BIOS.  I figured maybe somebody else may give me some tips on doing this outside of Windows.  That would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks for all advice that you can give me.

    The cpu is designed to run four sticks, but at 1.8 volts.  That's where the catch is because most memory rated at 1066 uses higher voltages  The Bios Kernal Developers Guide AMD has posted on their web site from April does indicate what you are stating, but if you contact AMD support, they will tell you otherwise.  I swear AMD is still beta testing Phenoms long after they were released.  Running the memory I have at 1066 is not supported by AMD, only 1.8 volt memory is.  If the bios is written by the motherboard manufacturer to support the memory as mine obviously is on this board, it will work.  Since MSI has gone to the trouble of supporting this memory and it is some of the first 1066 sticks made, I have to believe most other 1066 memory using voltages other than 1.8 will work.  Below is the response I received from AMD several months ago on this issue concerning another manufacturer's board that is now in the trash for other issues.  The manufacturer in their qualified vendors list stated the memory would work, but it never did.  The e-mail is several months old now so one of the links no longer works.  Not knowing the forum rules here very well, I did block the manufacturer's name and the tech's name.  In the e-mail and in a follow up phone call, AMD is saying if the memory doesn't work, the motherboard manufacturer needs to fix the bios.
    Dear Customer,
    Thank you for contacting AMD Customer Care.
    AMD Phenom processors are able to support four DDR2-1066 memory modules which are JEDEC certified to operate at 1.8V.
    Please be informed that the Kingston memory modules that you have is only certified to function within Jedec specification at 800MHz at 1.8V.
    The 1066MHz specification validated by Kingston is out of spec and may not work.
    You may either wish to check with A*** for updated BIOS support or run the 4 modules in DDR2-800 mode.

  • Problems after BIOS update on DKA790GX Platinum

    Hi,
    I have set up a pc with the DKA790GX Platinum (MS7550). The config:
    - Phenom 8750
    - Silverstone 400W PSU (fanless)
    - 2x2GB Crucial PC5300
    - Pioneer Blu-ray
    - Seagate Momentus 5400.4
    (this is a HTPC setup...)
    The pc started up fine and I installed the OS. I had the board connected to my monitor through HDMI.
    After updating the BIOS the board went all black on me. I tried connecting a floppy-drive to recover to a older BIOS-version, but could get the board to do that. I then tried different monitor-connections, but nothing.
    I then installed a Gigabyte Radeon HD 4870 1GB-board I had laying here, and board seems to boot somehow - all graphics are messed so I can't read whats on the screen, but at least I get some kind of image. A little unsure on how the PSU handle that videoboard.
    Anyone know if the 1.2 BIOS-update maybe is set to <swearing removed> the integrated video by looking for a videoboard in the system? Have a Asus 9800GT Matrix-board in a another pc here - maybe I remove that and try it in the new pc, but... argh..
    This ain't funny at all anymore. I had a P45 Platinum dying during a BIOS upgrade. I had a P45 Diamond that dosn't want to boot anymore, and now this... MSI-motherboards really don't want to be friends with me at the time  :-|

    Hi have exactly teh same problem,
    On Dec/2008 I have set up a PC with DKA790GX Platinum (MS7550 ver 1.2), Phenom 9750, 1 120GB hd, 4 MB corsair xms2 ddr2 800mhz, psu 500w. I installed the win xp pro OS. I had the board connected to my monitor vga. After updating the BIOS (with live update utility) the board went all black on me (the fan, PSU, hd starts normal). I test the PSU, HD and the memory, but the problem still continue.
    Two days after, the PC start normal, but I don't know what was the problem.
    Aleatory when try to start the PC, sometimes I get exactly the same problem, but, Yesterday, I try again to work with me PC and now i have the same problem.
    What can i do to fix this problem?

  • Difference between DKA790GX and DKA790GX Platinum

    I'm trying find the difference between the

    From what i can tell in the spec the only diff is the firewire port and about £20.
    anyone else know ?

    And....the Platinum version is black!!!  That alone would be worth the extra $20 bucks to me.  It's gotta look good when you open the case.

  • Dka790gx platinum

    hello, I checked to see if there was any updates for my motherboard, it seems to have been removed from msi site (and never existed according to the search engine) I downloaded live update 5 which only recognised my 295 gtx (made by gainwood ) I am guessing this is not supported any longer so there will be no further updates? bios is 1G and i just updated network driver from realtek's site, is this what I need to do from now?
    thanks.
    also wanted to check cpu compatibilty to see if this is worth updating.
    thanks again.

    http://www.msi.com/product/mb/DKA790GX-Platinum.html
    Are you having any problems? If not, then there is no need to update drivers. And please uninstall LiveUpdate 5, it is not very useful, and potentially dangerous.

  • DKA790GX platinum problems

    hi there, please bear with me as i am pretty new to building computers, i recently bought and installed a 25.g phenom, and a dka790gx platinum board.
    i also have a radeon 3850 hd card installed. since doing this, formatting my hard drive and using a clean install of windows vista i have been plagued with programs crashing, one or two blue screens and other such instability. i only have 3 1 gig ram sticks installed, do i need to use pairs? i ran the windows memory checker as i play world of warcraft and when that crashes it said memory could not be wriiten, or read, on two diff occasions.
    i would really appreciate some help on this. firefox seems to be a program that has a lot of problems, as does windows live messenger and yahoo messenger, these problems do see intermittent though.
    regards, and hoping for help.

    What works good on one board doesn't always work on another.
        Take a look at the other user signatures on this and other forums and look for users with the same motherboard, see what memory they're using.
        Don't mix and match memory, pick a brand and part number and stick with it. If you change brands, or part numbers within a brand, change ALL
    of your memory to that brand/ part number.
        If your running dual channel, buy matched pairs,  They're matched at the factory to work together, and will have closer to identical specs than two sticks
    you buy separately.
        Check your memory manufacturer's website for compatibility with your motherboard (OCZ doesn't list your motherboard on their site, but it's a new board , so it might be worth a call).
        Search for reviews of your motherboard or the memory your thinking about purchasing and see if any of the sites have used your motherboard and/or memory for a review.
    If it's a popular motherboard, odds are somebody will be using it as a test bed,  If your lucky, they used or reviewed the memory your interested in, on your board.
        Hang out here for a bit and see if anyone is using or tried your motherboard/memory combination.
