HELP! BIOS not auto detecting

Well have my new MSI P965NeoF V2. With the Intel E7200 and a G7200 Nvidia card.. 2 gigs of memory.
The problem I am having is , the system will not auto detect the Maxtor 80 Gig or my Quantem DVD player in BIOS. It will detect both of them and actually boot from the Maxtor.. But the xp version I have on the system is bad, so I will have to restore....
The system will not "See" or acknowledge my dvd payer with the xp cd in it...
Have tried running a 98 boot disc to try and get access to the DVD , have changed the DVD to a CD rom drive I had laying around... Nothing seems to work.. What is up?
both these drives are the IDE drives. I have disabled the SATA functions for now. (In the future will get SATA Devices)
Cabling and jumper settings are correct..
SO what do I do?
Corey

 Do/did you have HDD on primary IDE and ODD on secondary IDE? How old are the ribbon cables? If they have been taken off & put back in too many times you may need to use new ones. I have had to replace them in the past for that reason as they ended up being no good after too many times in & out. And yes I would get SATA HDD. I'm not sure about yours but most of the older MBs won't suppoert SATA ODDs.

  • Not auto detecting wifi out of clamshell mode

    I have a MacBook Air and when opening my laptop out of clamshell mode my wifi will not auto detect the closest connection point. The current work around is to right click and select the appropriate connection. While this is ok, I would really like the auto detect to work properly.
    I do have the automatic find selected in Network Preferences.
    Looking for any solutions.
    Thanks.

    Unless you get that WRT54G for free or next to free, pass on it and pick up an old apple WAP off eBay or similar site. Like you my iPad has a connectivity problem with the WRVS4400N running iOS 4.2.1, where it didn't have trouble with iOS 3.2.2 and ran fine for five months.
    My solution at the office was to spur a second router off my DSL router just for the iPad. The first was a WRT54G that had to be set to only one 802.11 protocol to keep the iPad reliably connected, but swapped it out for an old airport extreme that I kept on after testing it to be good. With a home network like you describe, I would run a subnet off the WRVS4400N just for iPad using an apple WAP (the configuration app for Windows is easy to use).
    Good luck.

  • My computer will not auto-detect my shuffle

  • IBook not auto-detecting my external displays any more

    I have an iBook G4 which has recently stopped auto-detecting the addition or removal of external displays (both tv and my external monitor). Forcing detection using the system preferences still works. Anyone have any ideas as to how I might fix this problem?
    Thanks

    Plug the drive into your computer
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
    Click on your drive on the left side of the window and then click Repair Disk at the lower right hand corner of the main window
    It may take 30-45 minutes for this to complete. Then try the drive again at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme. Be sure to power everything off when you do this and restart things one at a time.
    If that does not help, your last resort is to plug the drive into your computer again and open Disk Utility again. This time click Repair Disk Permissions. Then try again.
    Are you trying to use Time Machine with the drive attached to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme?

  • MFEFX1 not auto-detected on SLM224P-G5

    I have been fighting with a pair of Linksys switches, on and off over the past days. What I want to do is very simple, uplink two swtiches via a Fiber connection.
    I have been supplied with equipment, which on paper is compatible, but in reality seems incompatible.
    I have:
    - 2 x MFEFX1
    - 1 x SLM224P-G5
    - 1 x SRW224G4
    - (also a SRW224P - aparently after some digging listed as incompatible with the MFEFX1)
    I have upgrade the firmware on the SRW224G4 to 1.2.2b to support the MFEFX1.
    I have Firmware 1.0.1 on the SLM224P, listed as auto-detecting the MFEFX1.
    According to the (now seemingly unavalable) document: "Linksys100M-SFP-SwitchSupport-noteV1.3.pdf" all the above should now be supported.
    I have updated the port configuration on the SRW224G4, and this shows "100M-ComboF" and seems to be OK.
    On the SLM224P, however, I see the port as a "1000M-ComboF" and the link stays down.
    I see a led light-up on the SRW224G4 for the connection, but nothing else.
    At this point I wish that I was supplied with the Gigabit Fiber modules that seem to be more compatible with the various switches (including our SRW224P - that detects the MFEFX1 as a 1000M-ComboF device. I tried this before finding the above 'compatibility' document).
    Can anyone supply me with some information so that I can get this fiber connection working? Trying to set any options on the SLM224P to tell it to use only a 100M connection gives an error about this being a 1G port and so can only run a 1G speed.
    Thanks for any help

    aponikikay, thanks for the feedback.
    The document linked is the quick-start guide that came printed with the miniGBIC. I did see that list. It looks like the other document (Linksys100M-SFP-SwitchSupport-noteV1.3.pdf) might not be so acurate.
    I am going to have the SLM switch replaced by a SRW224G4P that is listed as supported. I just wonder why I was supplied with the one set of equipment in the first place...

  • Faces not auto-detecting

    Faces frequently fails to auto-detect faces in photos. I have several pictures where the initial scan produces no faces to be named, even when the faces in the pictures are front-on and unobscured.
    On the other hand, I frequently get 'faces' auto-detected on things like peoples arms, legs, speaker grills, etc.
    Is this an indication of a problem with Faces, or is it par for the course?
    Thanks!

    Thanks, that was what I was afraid of. In general, Faces is excellent. As you said though, it is far from perfect.

  • Firewire/1394 devices are not auto-detected with k8n neo4 platinum

    I am unable to detect firewire/1394 devices to my PC through my K8N Neo4 Platinum. That is, I plug in the device through the firewire port and windows doesn't detect that a device has been plugged in.
    I have tried:   
    -2 firewire devices, both are Canon digital camcorders (ZR10 and ZR25MC)
    -2 different firewire cables
    -reinstalling windows, got all windows updates except
    (Microsoft Base Smart Card Cryptographic Service Provider Package: x86 (KB909520))
    -patch from microsoft, discussed here
    (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=81749.0)
    -both firewire devices using both cables connect just fine to a test computer
    -both my computer and the test computer have Windows XP Pro SP2
    Windows doesn't make the noise "bah-dum" that it has detected a device, nor does it display the dialog that gives me options of what programs to use. Once in a while, if I leave it connected for a while and come back, windows will eventually find it...or windows might bog down and get really slow. It speeds up again instantly once I unplug the firewire device. Strange, I know. Also there are NO conflicts in device manager.
    Could it be?: 
    -bios misconfiguration
    -need to use an older chipset driver (i am using most recent from nvidia.com)
    -onboard audio or front audio needs to be disabled
    -the k8n neo4 platinum simply has connection problems with some firewire devices
    (i hope not)

    Built2Last: (good questions!)
    I tried your suggestion by removing PCI cards and made FURTHER progress. I found out that my firewire card, the Syba NEC1394-P3, has some compatibility issues with my other PCI cards. I found this out because:
    1. it worked fine after I placed it in a non-comm (orange) slot and removed my soundcard (X-Fi) and Belkin wireless modem, and
    2. a tech support representative from Syba told me that that particular firewire card has compatibility issues
    Quote
    Also, SD-NEC-4F is our older model firewire card.
    Our new firewire card (SD-PCI-4F) is using VIA VT6306 chipset and no customer complain about any installation issue so far.
    If the SD-NEC-4F still giving you trouble, I'll suggest you to return it and exchange for the SD-PCI-4F firewire card.
    At least he is honest and wants to help, so I remain impartial towards Syba.
    So I figured out the firewire card, but not the onboard firewire. Ok, but check this out! When the Syba card was working, I could plug in BOTH the external hard drive AND either of the Canon camcorders to the Syba firewire card. Windows all three devices just fine. Again, the onboard firewire would ONLY detect JUST the external hard drive, but would not detect either of the Canon camcorders. It seems as though the ball again is knocked back into MSI's court on this issue. Any ideas?
    syar2003:
    As for drivers, I checked for drivers for: onboard firewire, add-in firewire card, and Canon camcorders.
    -I cannot find where there is an MSI firewire driver for my onboard firewire port. I originally guess that it was part of my chipset driver installer, but the README doesn't say anything about it. It is also not an additional download on MSI's website. But since it detects an external hard drive I figure I must already have it.
    -The add-in firewire card does not have drivers. I repeat, they do not exist. The manual and Syba's website both state that drivers for the card are included all versions of Windows back to Windows 98.
    -Canon's website has a driver/software download page but it also appears that drivers do not exist for the Canon camcorders.
    Yes the camcorder is set to VCR mode.
    Yes the IEEE1394 is correctly installed, since external hard drive connects okay.
    I tried two DV cables and both are connected fine.
    The camcorders do not support USB as far as I can see, and if they do, I'm not using it.

  • The setup not auto detect to force close or notify user close current process when install new version

  • Bios auto detect

    after installing my sempron 2800+ socket A today I set the bios to auto detect the CPU . It detected it as an XP1900+ and set the DDR to 400 .
    However when I manually set the FSB to 166 and the mem divider to 1:1 then it detected it correctly as a sempron 2800+
    why did it do this ?
    The motherboard is an MSI K7N2 Delta-L
    I have the latest bios V5.8

    they all boot first time at 100 fsb
    if you clear cmos it will be 100 fsb again on most boards
    its normal

  • Bios Crash while auto-detecting SATA!

    Greetings! I just bought a new system (species follow bellow) with a K8N SLI Platinum board. I noticed a huge bug in my bios (v 3.0, original and latest available at present). While auto-detecting any SATA drives, bios crashes and strange characters are written at the bottom of the screen (se pictures). It makes no difference if there are any IDE drives plugged in no not, (I’ve tried removing all, even ATA and Floppy). This error make it a hard time for windows to boot properly from my sata drive and I wonder if this really could be just an early version bio bug, or if it’s something physically wrong with my board.
    Of course I’ve tried a lot of different bios setups, even flashing the bios with the same version downloaded with DigiCell, but nothing seams to affect the case.
    I took a few (blurry) pictures of the crash which are available at http://www.ekhagen.org/temp/msi_k8n_bios
    Any suggestions are appreciated, I really don’t like to return my board to the seller if it’s not necessary, but I rather not stay with this problem forever.
    System specifications:
    MSI K8N SLI Platinum
    AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 1.8 GHz Socket 939
    2*512 mb TwinMOS PC3200 DDR-DIMM (tried with other manufacturers too, as well as changing memory slot around according to the recommended memory combinations, and no difference)
    Asus EN6600GT GeForce 6600GT 128MB PCI-E
    Sata hrd drive: Samsung SpinPoint P80 160GB

    OK. I'm empty of ideas of how to go forward with this now, so I just write the story and hope that someone can help. You have to excuse my spelling, since I don't have any spell-checking on this computer I guess there will be a lot of errors.
    I Followed the FAQ mentioned abowe as well as possible (the bios of my SLI Platinum seamed to be slightly different, i.e, settings placed in different submenus, compared to the bios refered to in the FAQ). Here is tre result:
    The bios-part of the setup went really well, after defining a RAID array the strange bios craches when auto-detecting sata-disks dissapeard and everything else went as expected. But there the good parts ended. All other bios settings was unchanged after loading failsafe defaults.
    I started the installation of windows (a swedish XPsp2) but after loading the nvidia sata-drives from the floppy, just before the first installation menu screen appears, the windows setup craches and the computer reboot. I tried the latest winXPx64 downloaded directly from Microsoft and the same thing happens when trying to install (for the raid-driver disk I took the nessesery files from the Nvidia nForce 64-bit installation package and put on a floppy).
    After some retrys with different settings in windows I was able to se the blue-screen instead of directly rebooting and it said MACHENE_CHECK_EXCEPTION. This havn't told me much so far since this exception seams to occur by a milion different reasons, often related to hardware errors or incompability. Finally I ran into the OnBoard Sil3132 Mode setting, found under Integrated Periferials -> Onborde Device. This was set to SATA as default, but when I changed it to RAID the windows setup no longer crached before the first menu, and I was able to complete the first part of the setup corectly (until the first reboot).
    After reboot I simply recieve a black screen instead of windows loading. After a couple of retrys, again switching settings in bios as well as changing sata-channel for my hd, I by coincidence leave the black screen alone for a couple of minutes, and then finally windows manage too boot corectly and the installation continues. While installing devices, just after worning that the nvidia raid-drivers being installed havn't passed the windows driver control, the screen blinks, as is does when identifying new video drivers, whereby the familar blue screen with the MACHENE_CHECK_EXCEPTION appears.
    Here I'm stuck, I'm not even shore that the MACHENE_CHECK_EXCEPTION is realted to the other problems with sata. I've tried changing ram without result, and I do not have much other things inside the computer, except my GeForce 6600GT and the Entermax 430w power supply, which I have no replaces for.

  • User Interface - auto detect does not work

    I have added the jQuery Mobile User Interface with Theme 50 to an old APEX 4.1 Application.
    When adding the new User Interface i checked the "auto detect" feature in the old User Interface.
    "Auto detect"- Help says:
    Select whether the appropriate user interface should be automatically detected. If auto-detection is enabled, the user will be redirected to the corresponding login page or home page.
    When calling the Application (only with the application-id) from my nexus 4 smartphone the application does not switch to the mobile Login page.
    Do i have to change any old settings or themes?
    Thanks so far

    You can run Incremental Sync from user profile 3-4 times. This will delete the user profile from SharePoint UPA.
    Now, we need to run UPA clean job timer job available in Job Definition inside central administration.
    This is a by design issue which you have raised. But, to get it done on the same day you need to follow above mentioned steps. This would be done in some hour and cannot be achieved in 4-5 minutes. So, your original request is a by design issue and can be
    done i some hours.

  • My outgoing mail server auto defaults to port 465 but auto detect settings box is not checked

    Hi Guys,
    Hope someone can help.
    I am having problems sending emails as my provider does not support port 465 as an outgoing mail server port, only 587 and 25.  Despite not having 'auto detect settings' box checked in mac mail my port defaults to 465 whatever I put in there. 
    I am running 10.10.1 and the latest version of mac mail.
    Hope someone can help.
    Cheers

    Hello,
    I figured out my problem. I had somehow changed the "user name" in the outgoing server. (edit server list > Advanced tab > user name). When I corrected the user name, so that it exactly matches the user name for the "Incoming mail server" the outgoing server is back online!
    Of course, I still have the problem of having to enter my keyword password repeatedly, but that is in a different thread . . .
