GNB Max-FISR
i have what i think is an easy question
i searched out the specs but didnt understand what i found...my question is what types of DDR ram will this board support :ie 2100, 2700, etc????
also, if there is anyone else out there who was stupid like me and actually boought this crappy board, has anyone put a fast chip, 2.8ghz or above on this board and how does it work for you??? faster memory either??? let me know...thanks
I know for a Fact that the GNB MAX Will support DDR-400 RAM, but will ONLY run it at DDR-266 Speeds and it's MAX Memory Bandwith is 3.2 GB/Sec while Operating in Single Channel Memory Mode, Or 4.27 GB/Sec while Operating in Dual-DDR Mode.....And this Board as you know will only support P-4 533 MHZ System Bus Northwood Chips up to 3.06 GHZ, But will Overclock Higher.................Sean REILLY875

Thanks to a previous post and some other help, I think I've finally fixed my overheating problem (although MSI has yet to return my call.)
The GNB Max-FISR board defaults the Voltage under the "Frequency/Voltage Control" to 1.75. Apparently the max for the 3.06 Intel chip is 1.5.
Also, I had not applied thermal compound to the chip when attaching the heat sink.
After performing both functions the chip running full out hangs out around 60 degrees C. This information REALLY should be in FAQ!!!it is a 350W power supply..
The DBraket reports all red in 1,3,4 and a green in 2.. the manual claims that the system will hang there if the memory module is bad or installed improperly..
i can't imagine that the memory is bad, since it's brand spanking new.. and i've seated and reseated them a thousand times..
do I have the wrong memory?
I have DDR266 PC2100.. the manual seems to suggest that it might only support DDR533 or DDR400..

Hello Everyone,
Has anyone in this NG used the onboard bluetooth interface with success?
It's not clear in the MB documentation if the onboard Bluetooth chip is ready to communicate with surrounding Bluetooth devices, or it requires an extra piece of hardware. I installed the Bluetooth software, and configured it, but it still doesn't communicate with my other GNB-Max FISR desktop via Bluetooth.
I'd appreciate it if anyone can post the part/model number for any additional devices to make bluetooth work on this MB.
Thanks!Quote

Hi,
I've got the Bluetooth Extension working in my Computer. I had to order it by mail - it cost me about $25 (which is cheaper than a regular USB dongle). It worked without problems, the antenna even extends the working radius quite a bit. The driver (which you have to download - no disk included!) is a regular WIDCOMM stack. No PAN or headset operation with this driver(yet).
You should be looking for:
MSI MS Bluetooth Transceiving Module for
845E-MAX und 845E-MAX2 Series
Part Number: MS-6968 (6967 is the USB dongle)
The only real problem is that it takes up a slot in the back of the pc and has a strange layout that makes it difficult (at least in my case) to fit it without scratching the board. But I had these problems with the other MSI Brackets as well. Please, MSI, make them thinner!!

GNB MAX FISR processor upgrade
I installed a 3.06G P4 to replace the 2.8G chip I originally built it with. Now, control panel shows 2 installed P4 3.06 chips, and the pc blue screens at shutdown, with IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL followed by a bunch of hex data, then it reboots. Have "live updated" everything. Microsoft says it is a graphics driver issue. Running latest NVidia drivers 6693 version. Any ideas out there?
Since I went through the same trouble while upgrading a 2.66 P4 to 3.06HT P4 on Gnb Max, the followings could help.
Most probably your trouble is due to hyperthreading capability of 3.06 P4. Since you have two processors in the control panel, you already have it activated. To verify this, you can go to BIOS and disable hyperthreading. If the problem goes away, the trouble is really due to hyperthreading.
After verfying that hyperthreading is the problem enable it again because it is a very nice thing to have. You can rectify the problem by checking a couple of things.
- First, make sure that the following is true: Device Manager -> Computer -> ACPI Multiprocessor PC. Otherwise you can change it to ACPI Multiprocessor yourself by updating the driver if you go to Properties. Reboot and check if the problem is resolved.
- If the problem is still there, uninstall your graphics driver and switch to Standard VGA, reboot and reinstall the Nvidia driver. If the problem still persists after doing this, you might need to reinstall Windows. But I think the above two things should resolve the problem, I did not need to reinstall Windows on my system.
Good luck

MikeThanks ASSAF for the reply. If 1.42-1.44 is ok I'll
just leave it alone for now....untill CPU and MB ard

GNB MAX FISR Intel inf 4.30.1006 installation
Hi, when I installed my Win2k Advanced Server for the first time I supplied the Intel inf chipsets drivers from the diskette that comes with the board, it was version 4.10.1011
Now I want to install the latest ones (4.30.1006) but when run the installer and then reboot, I go to device manager and I keep seeing version 4.10
How to upgrade to chipset driver 4.30 ???
anyone experience this ?This is normal. The Intel Inf is a utility that installs the most recent drivers. The version # is the utility #. The individual drivers are numbered the same as the utility # that version first came with. If the individual driver is the most current version the number will not change. As a result when you update some individual driver# will change and some won't

anyone know where i can get v2.2 ?
There is a bios bug appearantly with the 3.06GHz P4 whre the bios defaults the Vcore to 1.75v (should be 1.525v).
Check that and set it manually to 1.525v if needed.
Also, setting the FSB to 133MHz results in 137MHz, setting it to 134Mhz results in the correct 133MHz.
So try it with manuall 134MHz, that will bring the CPU back down from it's overclocked 3150MHz to the intended 3066MHz which might be an issue.
These 2 bugs have been reported and I hope will be fixed soon with a new bios.
Last, although you have the best RAM around sometimes it can also be faulty, so try running memtest86 on it for half an hour to see if it finds any error ( http://www.memtest86.com ) -
Msi6565-010 GNB MAX FISR/problems with ati graphics card 8500dv
For some reason my 8500Dv card doesn't work with this motherboard .It knocks out the onboard devices everytime I install this card. The card works great in my other computer. Any idea why this card isn't compatible. I get a long beep and two short beeps. I know the card is good though. The bios seems to be diturbed by this card
Try latest Bios?

Realisticly:how much OC with my system?MSI GNB MAX
Ok, How much OC I can get, with my system, if I change the 1.5ghz 266DDR Value RAM to something better. Any suggestions.
I plan to ditch the ram for something better, but my mobo, and CPU aren't that fast compared to the C, and E, and the 64 stuff.
I am using the 2.8B, E7205/i7205 mobo.
Only fan cooling. Using the pipe101, will place the tornado on it. Does the vantec fan card improves my GF performance.
I am just able to OC my card from 350 to 388mhz, 1.09ghz, others got a 420mhz on a supperior system. All using the inno3d 6800gt.. Or I'm looking at an "old" system already.
The OC FSB is just up to 153. I read somewhere that it is useless/not worth to OC this system.
So what do you think?
my system is in the signatureI would not push further than 160 FSB, you can corrupt your disks since PCI /AGP are not locked. Usually PCI frequency above 38 MHZ is not considered safe and 150 FSB corresponds to 37.5 MHZ PCI frequency. I corrupted my 30 GB WD at 160 FSB.
I have GNB Max, P4 3.06HT, 2x 512MB KVR DDR333 (CAS2.5 rated). I oveclocked the system to 150 FSB, P4 is running as 3.45GHz@600FSB (HT is on), with dual channel DDR300 memory (2-3-3-6 timings). System is 100% stable after testing with Linux kernel compile, Prime 95, 3DMark benchmarks. The performance gain in CPU intensive benchmarks is almost the same as increase in FSB frequency, which is 12.5%, since RAM overclocks in sync with CPU.
If you settle at 150 FSB, your DDR266 will be running as DDR300. You can test it with its given SPD values and if not stable you can reduce CAS setting one step, i.e. from CAS2.5 to CAS3. If none of these are possible, you can upgrade with DDR400.
I use Vantec Fan card with my GF4, but it did not help me increase my overclock. However, I removed the fan on my GF4 (heat sink is not removed just the fan) after trying to increase the overclock. Vantec Fan card is much more silent compared to the Thermaltake fan and copper heat sink combo. I still can overclock as before but do not need to put up with the noise of Thermaltake fan.
Hope this helps

Anyone got "GOOD" sound out of GNB-Max 6565?
Hello,
I'm getting a very lousy sound out of my 6565. I tried all options such as with or without the S connector, 2, 4, and 6 channels, all possible inputs, different hardaware acceleration levels, etc.
The sound output is bad, and the microphone doesn't detect anything. I've noticed that many people were having the same problem. Does this mean that this MB requires a special speaker system? Can't I use two speakers like old times and get stereo sound out of them without any software/hardware tweaks?
Thanks for any help?

Two legacy speakersI have the same board but I didn't even try onboard sound. My experience with onboard sound on other boards has made me just start with a good pci sound card (sound blaster audigy). Every onboard sound I have tried either sounded bad or worse. If the board had a creative chip on it you may get medium quality. Don't waste money on new speakers to use with the onboard sound, spend the money on a soundcard. Of coarse if money is not an issue you could buy both.

RESOLUTION: GNB MAX and Radeon 9700 Crashes
I had various lock-ups, crashes and "Windows detected and recovered from a device failure" error messages with my GNB MAX motherboard and Radeon 9700 and they are now fixed.
I was able to receive a beta version of an upcoming set of drivers from ATI and they did the trick!!
Just wanted to give you all some hope.
Hang in there!Oops, I spoke too soon. I think FastWrites is on (I remember turning it off before on previous drivers and noticing a big slow down that is not present now) but there isn't a SmartGart tab appearing in my ATI control panel any more. I checked Advanced - Options - Details and yes, 8X is on.
How can I verify that FastWrites is on without the SmartGart tab? -
Hi there, i have a queestion about memory type for the GNB MAX, in the specifications it says that the type of memory should be 2100 (266), but can i use another newer? for example one memory at 2700? i know that maybe the performance is not the same.. but it is possible to use it?
Thanks in advanceI belive it would work, but the speed would be set lower asuming you havent touched somthing in BIOS. If its on 'by SPD' in BIOS that is.
To run it any faster, you have to overclock youre CPU. Read some about it here in the Forum:https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?board=27.0
