Dual Core Center runs with strange noises

Hello
I just bought a new PC: MSI P45NEO-F (Motherboard) and GALAXY 9600GT (Graphic Card).
I installed Dual Core Center since it was provided as an utility software.
As soon as  Dual Core Center is running, strange noises come out from the speakers and they never stop until I close the application. I have to switched off the speaker because it is unbearable. Except the sound from the speakers, computers is working OK. Even Dual Core Center with this noise seems to work.
I am not an expert at all.
Does anyone had this problem or would know where it comes from ?
Computer seems to work OK when Dual Core center is not running.
Thanks

Hello
I just had another look at my problem and I noticed that one of the figure displayed in Dual Core Center was in red. It is the fan speed of system1 in the Fan Menu: the number in red was 995 RPM. As soon as the figure goes above 1000 (it does happen from time to time) the figure becomes green and the strange noise stops.
I have two fans in my computer: the CPU fans whose speed is around 1530 and the System1 fan whose speed is around 995 RPM. There are some setup in the BIOS regarding Fans but I guess everything is properly setup.
Anyway is there anything wrong with a fan system1 speed below 1000 ? Why would Dual Core center put the figure in red in that case and make a noise as a warning ?
Thanks for your help/advices.

  • P6N SLI V2 problem with "dual core center"

    I have the P6N SLI  V2 with E4400 and 7600gt running XP pro sp 2.
    after installing and running MSI's "dual core center" (including .Net framework) I only have the "VGA" option enabled, the "MB" option is disabled as well as the D.O.T option. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling as well as downloading the latest version, but I have the same problem. I get no MB options at all (like no cpu temp, fan speed, core speed etc.). I didn't make any changes to the BIOS yet (other than changing the boot sequence), and ideas?

    Don't use MSI's utilities. Anyone here will tell you that.

  • Dual Core Center - not worth bothering with?

    Hi,
    New to this forum so please bear with me!
    Just installed a K9N Neo V3 and upgraded to latest BIOS.
    Have installed latest version of Dual Core Center software and when I select the the Silent option withing a few seconds the window pops up and it starts playing a Siren sound like something is wrong. It reports the CPU FAN RPM as quite low - but then I have a Artic Cooling Freezer Pro 64 CPU cooler which controls the speed based on temp.
    I cant find any instructions on how to use / configure Dual Core Center. How do you adjust warning levels?
    Can you adjust the System Fan Speeds based on Temperature?
    I tried uninstalling Dual Core Center and installing the latest version of SpeedFan 4.33 but that wont show any FANs at all on the main screen or config screen.
    Are there any other software worth trying?
    Thanks In Advance

    The two SYS FANS that I have installed.
    Anyways I seem to have solved the problem - the two fans came with Molex adaptors etc so I just swapped the 12v & 5v connectors round and connected them to the PSU rather than the MB connectors.
    Now the PC is ultra queit and still has two fans sucking warm air out - albeit only running at around 900RPM
      OK... I'D Like to Understand, If those fans came with Molex Adaptors, How did you Connect them to the Mainboard in first Place?
    Now this is How I modded 2 X 12mm FANS that were Molex and came along with my Case.
    Chopped off a 3 Pin cable from Old Cpu Cooler That was not being used, Insert the 3 Pin Cable into one of the Fans Molex Adapter as an extension. Because the molex connectors on these fans are Usable via Male/Female, simply connect The 2nd Fan to the 1st one and hooked it up to My Fan Controller, now I have the Ability to control 2 fans on 1 Knob, and I Do Wick them both up to keep My System cool under Load. The Fan Controller is the reason I needed them on a 3 Pin, could easily use both fans on One 5V ZM-MC1 connector just the same.

  • NX7600GT Diamond Plus and fan speed with Dual Core Center

    I just got a NX 7600GT Diamond Plus for my HTPC. I noted that Riva Tuner and other utilities are not able to control the fan speed of the video card. The only way one can control the fan speed is via Dual Core Center and 3D Core Cell. The problem is that the default setting for fan speed on Dual Core Center is too high and clearly audible. How can I get Dual Core Center to start with user defined presets during windows start-up/boot-up ?
    What I want to do is to put the fan into 'SILENT' mode automatically during Dual Core Center start-up. Any ideas / suggestions ?

    Quote from: BOSSKILLER on 17-January-07, 00:44:11
    well no need to edit manually, MSI provided everythink in easy way from core center.
    select advanced mode, create your custom profile pickup your desired settings,(setup maximum FAN RPM via buttons) and save it to custom profile.
    suggest you to read help section from program.
    So the custom profile is automatically loaded every time DualCoreCenter starts up ? Maybe there is something wrong with my install of DCC, I cannot get it to load custom profiles automatically upon startup. I can save the changes to say "User Profile 1" but the profile active on startup always is the "default" profile ...

  • Will logic pro x run on my mac mini dual core intel i5 with 4gb of ram and mountain lion ?

    hi there guys,
    will logic pro x run on my mac mini dual core intel i5 with 4gb of ram and mountain lion ?
    I'm not sure if my machine is 64 bit - it is the current model base mac mini.
    Many thanks for any help you can offer !
    Simon

    SkiJumptoes is right. 4GB is not enough to comfortably run Logic X.
    Your Mac Mini will need DDR3 SODIMM RAM. That website seems incredibly steep though. I guess that's the price of finding it for you. You're better off going to any below:

  • DKA790GX Platinum, have problem with changing FSB in Dual Core Center

    Hello guys, freshblood is here,
    I change fsb in Dual core center, but unfort.  core temp and CPUZ don't reflect any changes.

    I agree.  The BIOS gives you better control with better options.

    Dumb MSI Dual Core Center.  It is not the best tool ever developed.  Use the BIOS for overclocking your system.

  • Problem with Dual Core Center and MSI 3870

    Hello again, my previous thread is this:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=113164.0
    The VGA works well, the problem is that AFTER i installed it the Dual Core Center stoped to work!!
    Installed the dotnetfix again but no avail, still doesn't work.
    And i know that happened after installed the VGA, so i believe that must be part of the problem.
    Thanks!

    Try the latest version of Dual Core Center.

    My system specs are:

    I am running a dual boot system with Windows XP Pro SP2 on one partition and Windows Vista Ultimate on the other.  Both operating systems seem to be operating properly except for an odd situation with Dual Core Center.  In Windows XP Dual Core Center only indicates the Mainboard properties - No VGA, whereas on Windows Vista Ultimate Dual Core Center indicates both VGA & Motherboard properties.  I have installed MSI Nvidia drivers for the Graphics card & also tried straight Nvidia drivers for the card but it has made no difference VGA will not show up in XP.  Yet on installing Dual Core Center on the Vista partition VGA showed up immediately.  Can anyone help.
    If anyone can come up with an answer to this it would be a real help.
    Many Thanks in advance.

    have you try to update/install the dual core driver from amd?

  • Dual Core Center doesn't work at all.

    My mobo is P35Neo2-FR. Cpu is C2D E4600. I didn't overclocked it. WinXP professional 32BIT is installed.
    .Net 2.0 is also installed.
    From some time, I cannot launch Dual Core Center program. When I double-click the Dual Core Center icon,
    There is nothing to be launched. I could not understand why the program suddenly didn't work.
    Please let me know the solution to successfully launch Dure Core Center program.

    yeah! my only experience with DCC is,... after it runs, it straight away turn on the siren, annoy the whole PC, and after 10 seconds, it shuts down my PC! That's the big annoyance already. The next time I reboot, I quickly terminate it from runnign longer, and straight away remove it from my PC. don't even bother to figure out where the alarm settings is.

  • Dual Core Center- MSI 8800 GTS and MSI P6N SLI Platinum.

    I have both the MSI 650i MOBO and the MSI 8800 GTS vidcard. When using an Asus P5B Dlx MOBO and this vidcard, Dual Core Center was installed and displayed the information for the videocard and allowed a mild OC. Now with both MSI products in the case, Dual Core Center only displays the information on the MOBO-- no 8800 GTS information. The tab at the top for the VGA does not bring up anything.  ??? I have tried installing the version on each one of the disks that came with each piece of equipment again and it doesn't seem to make a difference, it doesn't work. I downloaded the most recent version of the utility from the MSI site and still get only the MOBO information. How do I get the display for the video card?
    Or since the MSI utilities typically are listed on the forums as not being the greatest, what else can I/should I be using instead?
    {I put this in the MOBO forum too as it hits both areas...}

    Found that AtiTool (latest beta) works on the 8800's. The "find max core" and "find max memory" don't work perfectly though, as they start the overclock and then are supposed to check for errors; they are supposed to stop the adjustment upward when they encounter erros and come back down......    AtiTool just kept cranking it up, although you could visibly see the little 3D screen artifact all over the place. But It gave a good starting place to do the OC manually and then go run the scan for artifacts and errors manually.  AtiTool listed the stock core at 513 and stock memory at 792. I was able to take the core up to ~644 and the memory up to ~877. I backed these off some (as you can't run both at max!) and it looked stable at 630 core, 860 memory.  Ran through both 3DMark 05 and 3DMark06 without a hitch. Need to check it out with some extended gameplay now.

    Running a P6N SLI Platinum and a MSI 7900GTO with Dualcorecenter 2004 and everything is ok.
    Never installed any driver from the MSI CD which comes with the board or graphics card. All drivers are downloaded
    from Nvidia.
    Maybe the 8800 series is not supported yet.

  • DualCoreCenter error - "Dual Core Center does not support!"

    Hi, just bought the insanely expensive MSI 8800 GTX Ulta OC (£457), which seems to ship with insanely cheap utilities.
    I installed the Dual Core Center (after installing the 'latest' nvidia driver 158.22).
    During the install, it insisted on a net framework 2 repair/uninstall for some unknown reason (I have net framework 2 and 3 installed - ie all latest xp patches) with no prior problems.
    Anyway, I let it do the repair and install itself.
    Now when I run the DualCoreCentre, it comes up with error msg: "Dual Core Center does not support!"
    Can someone shed light on what that means please.
    Thanks...

    It means:
    I suck, don't use me!
    Stay away from MSI's utilities. If you want to overclock or control fan speeds or anything else.

  • [solved] Dual Core Center alarm sound inconsistency

    Hey,
    My Dual Core Center sounds an alarm since my CPU fan is running too slow (below 1000 rpm). Fair enough. When selecting User Settings and a profile with a lower rpm border value the alarm goes away, but when restarting it sometimes return to the Default profile making the alarm come back.
    How do I permanently remove this alarm, or at least make the user profile run at every startup?
    No wonder everyone discards the DualCoreCenter utility.
    Cheers!

    How do I permanently remove this alarm, or at least make the user profile run at every startup?
    Browse through the MSI/Dual Core Center folder and look for a configuration file named HW.INI. Open it with an editor tool or wordpad and you should see about this (click on the picture to enlarge it):
    To turn off the alarm permanently, "SOUNDWARNING" has to be set to "SOUNDWARNING=0".  You can also keep the sound alarm enabled (=1) and lower the threshold value for the CPU FAN ("FAN_LOWER_LIMIT") from "1000" to 700 or whatever works best for you.

  • 975XPUE Dual Core Center 5V voltage readout

    Hello, I realize everyone unanimously agrees that Dual Core Center should be avoided.  However I have a question about the voltage readouts it provides.
    On my machine, DCC 5V readout has always reported 2.6x V, quite a drop from 5V.  3.3V reads out 3.31 V and 12V reads 12.20 V.  System is running stable despite the weird 5V level.  Everything runs just fine.  Don't know if this is a false reading, or a true but acceptable reading, or just DCC bug.
    Can someone please clarify what the MB 5V reading is referring to.  I always assumed this was from the 5V pin on the JPWR molex connector for PCI-E slots.  My video card is Sapphire X1950PRO 512 with power from 6pin PCI-E power.  I just assumed the molex power wasn't necessary but I have it connected anyway, and so this caused the 5V reading to be low.   
    Also, I have all 8 pins for the JPW ATX 12V connector attached.  PSU has 4+4 connector but I figured just plug everything in if it's available.
    MSI 975X PUE (Limited Edition)
    E6600 @ 3.07GHz default voltage  (343 FSB)
    OCZ Platinum Rev 2 2GB @2V 5-5-5-15
    Sapphire X1950PRO 512MB
    Thermaltake 750W (Modular) w/ 4 12V rails @18A
    Thanks!

    Thanks all for replies.  Svenomous, I'd like to try your tip but dont have a multimeter 
    I'm not worried that the 5V rail on my PSU is bad.  Like Maesus mentioned, that should cause all sorts of issues if my 5V was really pushing 2.6V.
    Was just curious what part of the MB dualcore center takes the 5V readout from.  If it's from the 5V pins on the 24 pin ATX, then the computer shouldn't even boot.  I guessed it was from the PCI-E molex connector and that the MB wasn't drawing the full 5V for whatever reason.  All other devices (fans, drives, etc)  on molex power seem to run fine.
    Was just hoping someone had a definite answer.  If I snag a volt tester, I'll follow up with true 5V rail levels.  Thanks

  • Dual core center locks up vista

    I have my new system up and running with a fresh install of vista  x64.  Everything works great until I install dual core center.  Once DCC is installed, the computer will boot up and start windows, but it freezes withing a few seconds of loading the windows desktop.  I read some other posts that said not to use DCC, but why not?  Is there a known reason that it doesn't work.
    If I can't use dual core center, what is a good program to start out with some very basic oc'ing?
