Hi,
Go into the BIOS to the power section, look for the powerstate function......
If it's set to auto, set it to Off.....
That will solve your problem...

HELP using AMD 1800+ (Thoroughbred) in K7T Turbo Ltd Ed

Sigh. I correctly remembered that the XP1800 was the fastest that the K7T Turbo Limited Edition could handle, so I picked one up.
Got it home, and determined that I got a Thoroughbred (model 8) rather than a Palomino (model 6) and the compatibility chart say "No"
I have been looking at the specs for the two models, and can't see why it shouldn't work. Has anyone got any further information?
Thanks so much!
Paul Birnbaum

But I had seen that page previously, and except for the 1.75/1.60 Core Voltage values (and the K7T Ltd Ed supports both those values) there seems to be no difference.
So there's still no definitive answer as to why the board would support the Palomino and not the T-Bred (which looks way like a typo for the old T-Bird!)
I did note that the BIOS values available for CPU Vio are 3.3v and 3.45v...so possibly that's it. I can't find a CPU Vio spec for either chip. Or possibly, it's just that the board doesn't recognize the CPUID.
Anyway, thanks...

K7T Turbo-R (6330 v3) & Athlon XP 1800 Problem

My current system is a K7T Turbo-R that I've had for a couple of years now. During this time, I've used an Athlon T-Bird 1.33GHz processor without any issues - very stable (I can probably count on one hand the number of lock-ups). The power supply is a 300W Antec.
I decided to upgrade the CPU. I checked the CPU support status and found that the highest I could use with this board is an Athlon XP 1800+ Palomino, which is what I purchased (code on the core is AX1800DMT3C).
After removing the TBird and installing the XP (along with a new CPU cooler), the system won't post at all, and all 4 LEDs are red. :O
I reinstalled the TBird (along with the same new cooler) and all is fine again. Figuring I had simply received a bum CPU, I tested the same XP 1800 on another system (a Soltek PurpleRay) and found that the CPU was fine.
Note: The BIOS is at v3.6 and J17 is open.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

The description of your problem indicates one or more failing capacitors on your motherboard. Check out this link for some example pictures of what that looks like:
http://www.careyholzman.com/caps/thumbnails.html
The reason i'm thinking about this is that i replaced 6 dead capacitors on my own K7T turbo last weekend. 4 of the 4700uF/6.3V ones had died (around the CPU socket), and both of the 2700uF/6.3V ones near the AGP slot. My system was showing the EXACT same symptom you are having. It would not boot after powering on with the power button, but a reset helped (this is at 1000 MHz, at 1333 MHz resetting did not help). This also explains why your old processor works fine, but the new one doesnt. Your PSU/power regulator combo is able to provide a stable enough voltage to the old processor with it's low power consumption. But with the new more power-hungy processor those big capacitors (which help stabilizing the voltage supplied to the processor) are missed :/
Apparently a Taiwanese capacitor producer supplied a large number of faulty capacitors to motherboard producers like msi,asus, abit, etc. More info in here: (and lots of other sites too)

Hope this is indeed your problem, and that you can fix it

K7T Turbo & CPU upgrade

Oops, is this the right spot for this post ? Anyway...
I have a MSI K7T Turbo Version 3.0 Limited Edition motherboard,without RAID.
(yes I know it's old)
The AMD Athlon processor (1.1Ghz) got fried and I want to replace it. The board is fantasic and I want to upgrade the processor. What AMD processors can I use in this board ?
The manual says 1.3Ghz maximum. I have seen on websites it will take up to 1.8Ghz. Is this true ?
I have also seen it will only take Athlon, or Palamino.
Someone else told me it will take the 1.33 GHz Thoroughbred processor , or some low Athlon XPs like XP1800+.... Help !
Can anyone please clarify for me ?
I want to put the maximum size processor in that will run with stability....
ps. I have upgraded my cooling system !

K7T Turbo LE - Windows XP Pro SP-1 is not detecting my CD ROM drive I used to install XP Pro !!!!!!!

This is an XP driver issue that I'm not sure how to resolve.
This is a brand new K7T Turbo (MS-6330) Limited Edition motherboard (red-colored board, not green), Ver. 3 (no RAID controller on-board)
PSU is 400w (I tried another PSU, same issue)
Athlon 850MHz socket-A
CD-ROM drive - Yamaha CDR2100E 16x10x40 UDMA-1
The BIOS is 3.6, updated prior to Windows XP's installation
The VIA 4-in-1 drivers were updated with the latest available on MSI's website for the 6330
2 hard drives installed on the primary controller - one set to master, one set to slave
CD-ROM drive is the only device on the secondary controller, set to master with no slave, and is plugged-into the end IDE cable connector
The board detects the cd drive, and I even installed Windows XP Pro WITH this cd-rom drive, installed as currently configured, which is what pisses me off. I've installed XP four times today, try different things between installs, and nothing. The drive works FINE outside of XP, but as soon as XP starts, the drive disappears and XP doesn't even detect it. Also, while booting up, the start screen will lock up (activity bar freezes and hard drive activity stops) for about ten seconds (but everything's hooked-up right... I'm not a PC rookie!).
HELP! Please oh please help!!!! I'm getting aggravated!
Thanks!

K7T Turbo D-Bracket USB connector?

Please I need some help.
I have a K7T Turbo Limited Edition Motherboard 6330 V.30 . It came with the P2P USB Bracket and the D-Bracket.
I can only find one place on the motherboard for a USB connector, how am I supposed to install these? Is there a mismarked motherboard pinout?
My Motherboard manual says it has a connectors for 6 USB ports.
I have 2 near the PS2 connectors built in, the D-Bracket has 2, the P2P has 2 which = 6, but I can't find a place to plug the brackets into the motherboard.
I would appreciate any help in the matter at all
Neoghost

Hi
According to the MSI site for the K7T Turbo Limited Edition, your motherboard only supports 4 USB connections.
You can use a USB PCI card to obtain more if needed.

K7T Turbo-R Limited Edition

Ok fellas, here's my question.
I'll try to include as much info as possible here.
I have the K7T Turbo-R Limited Edition version 3.0A (at least that's what the users manual says). It's a Red Motherboard and has 2 IDE Controllers. I simply want to know what is the fastest processor I am able to run in this board? Also, I was looking at the BIOS updates and noticed that some have footnotes regarding the Turbo2. So what is the latest BIOS Update that I would use for this particular board? Please pardon my ignorance here. My hopes here are that these are softball questions for you guys.

Thanks a bunch BAS!
Would this be the processor you're talking about? http://store.yahoo.com/directron/xp153.html
I found this online. Also, what would be the BIOS update I would use? I was looking at several posts last night and saw that the Power Supply is going to be a very important issue here. The case I have purchased comes with a 320W PS but I noticed when I was reading that 320W doesn't always mean 320W ?( . I appreciate all the help you guys offer here! Thanks again BAS! :P

Problem with memory in k7t turbo limited ed.

serious problem!! i've got mainbord k7t turbo limited edition with vhipset via vt82c686b. untill now i had one 128 MB memory installed. I want to extend my memory but when i insert another memory to another slot computer does not start... (led status i all red!) no metter to with slot i insert new memory (its the right pc133 memory type) and no matter if it's 128 or 256 MB. Witho only one slot used it work properly even with 256 MB. Problem occurs only with 2 or more slots sed... this memory works with no problems in other computer (different mainboard)
PLEASE HELP!!!!
thanks in advance

Most times is due to incompatibility between memory modules. Best way to avoid it is to buy 2 modules same brand, or one bigger module.

6330 K7T Turbo Limited Ed. Problem

I bought a brand new 6330 K7T Turbo Limited Edition.
It shuts down by itself within 10 minutes (sometimes even within 5 sec.).
The temperature protection in the BIOS has been turned off and I've upgrade to
the latest BIOS (V3.5). I tried unplugging everything except the powersupply,
memory, K/B, Mouse and video card. But it does the samething. Please Help. Thanks.
CPU: AMD Athelon 1.1 Ghz
RAM: Kingston PC-133 128MB
Video Card: ATI Xpert 2000 (Rage 128 Pro)
400 W power supply. (Known good)

It shut down completely.
I didn't even have any HDD connected. (M/B, RAM, CPU, Video Card, Cooling FAN, K/B & Mouse only) I'm sure the PSU is good because I'm using it now (so as the other accessories). the PSU is 400 W, 30A@5V, [email protected]
I tried 3 different brands of video cards, 2 brands of memory modules. They all did the same thing.

K7T turbo Limited

Need help on setting up and using IDE3&4 on my K7T turbo Limited edition. I have not used IDE 3&4 yet. How do I set it up as a raid config. Does my boot drive still stay at IDE1, or does it move to IDE3 or 4 . Is the some type of bios setting for the raid?
I have tried to use the IDE 3&4 as ATA 100 controller, the drive showes up in the preboot screen and it is there but under win xp pro I do not see the drive at all. How should the drives be set as masters or slaves?
sorry for al the question s , but I'm on a mission to learn this raid stuff and make use of the board.
Cheers Mike H

I'm Still having a problem using IDE 3&4. I tried what it said in the forum " How to use your Raid 3&4. But when I install my main drive on ide3 it will not boot. The Promise boots and looks at the drive and see it there, but it says that the cable is only a 40 pin cable ( it is not it's a ata 100 round cable) then goes on to try to boot and I end up in this circle of it trying to boot looks for drives then just keep restarting.
If I try to add another drive to the IDE 3 or 4 as additional drives it will not see the drives. Now I have the Promise device in the device manager and the drivers are loaded. But in the bios I can select that it look at Raid then scsi, but the is no other place in the bois to see raid. Under first boot device it willonly show the usual floppy, hd 0,1,2,3 or scsi. Any ideas what is going on here.

PCI 2.1 SLot on K7T Turbo Limited Edition?

I'm about to get a Firewire Card but I'm not sure whether my MB : K7T Turbo Limited Edition (MS-6330 v3.X) has a PCI 2.1 slot. I haven't found it in manual either. Can anybody help?
Thanks
minurec

Welcome!
My Turbo2 manual doesn't specify either, but specs on MSI site for mine shows 32 bit PCI 2.2, usually backward compatible. Your MB is just one very short edition back, and I bet your slots are probably the same and 2.1 compatible. MSI shows yours as 32 bit, but w/o the #version. To my memory the 2.1 standard predates our MBs by a couple of years or more. I think you're safe to go.

Getting K7T Turbo limited edition what is the fastest processor it will run

As the subject sugests my friend is about to give me his motherboard, ram and cpu the motherboard is a K7T Turbo-R (I'm assured this is the limited edition one) but he only has a slow old 1ghz processor on it. I've looked at the bios upgrades and I'm not sure what the fastest chip is that I can fit with the latest bios upgrade as it's written in funny english. It says: Support AMD XP 2400+ & 2600+ (K7T Turbo2 only) does this mean both chips are only supported on the turbo 2 or just the 2600+. My educated guess tells me that I would be able to fit a 2400+ as this is a 133/266 FSB processor but not the 2600+ as this is 333mhz. Please can someone help me I'm just starting to learn about computers and I don't really know what I'm talking about!

Hello,
If you are sure it is the limited edition then
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_cpu_support_detail.php?UID=25&kind=1
"It says: Support AMD XP 2400+ & 2600+ (K7T Turbo2 only)"
That lines means only the K7T Turbo2 supports the XP2400 and XP2600
(non 166FSB versions )

K7T Turbo 2

I stupidly lost the driver cd for my K7T Turbo 2 mainboard when I moved house!
I have just downloaded the via 4 in 1 AC97 driver from the archives, can anyone tell me if this is the right one for my mainboard?
And do I need any other drivers? (I downloaded the latest update too)
If these aren't the right drivers can anyone point me in the right direction please?
I only ask because when I search for drivers for this board, it only comes up with 2 search results, 1 is the via 4 in 1 drivers and the other is an update, but none actually mention my board model.
thanks for your help

You need only these two drivers, one for sound and one for Chipset:

K7T Turbo and Windows XP shutdown issues

I have just finished building a machine and installing Windows XP. When I choose "shutdown" from the "start" (whose idea was that anyway?) menu it gets to the screen that says "It is now safe to turn off your computer" (or something to that effect) but all the system fans are still running. How do I get the system to shutdown completely?
The configuration:
MS Windows XP Professional with SP1 and ALL updates from windowsupdate.com
No other software installed (except for the drivers needed for the M/B)
MSI K7T Turbo with the latest BIOS from MSI's site
AMD 1400 Thunderbird w/PAL 8045 heatsink and fan
512 PC133 SDRAM
WD 40Gb HDD (set as master on IDE1)
Sony CD-RW (set as master on IDE2)
GeForce 2 MX 64Mb video
3Com 3c905 10/100 NIC
Integrated sound
Generic Modem
Generic floppy drive
I am going to be giving this system to my mother to use and want to make sure that it will turn off when she hits shutdown.
Any help/assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

MSI GT780DX P1 "TURBO MODE" automatically off in few seconds

Hello ! In my MSI GT780DX (I5, gtx570m 1.5GB, Windows 7 x64 pro, charger ON) P1 "TURBO MODE" automatically off in few seconds (aimation from s-bar)
Everything work fine, until install the new driver for GPU from nvidia, v320, and give me problem whit P1 mode.
I'm uninstall the driver, and instal old, no fix, I'm uninstall all driver MSI (nvidia overclok tool, s-bar, afterburner, nvidia drivers) ,and install it again, no fix problem, still P1 "TURBO MODE" automatically off in few seconds ;/
curiosity:
For more GPU clok (700MHZ)and memory (1700), I run "nvidia inspector",only open "show overcloking",and "Driver profile" , nothing change ! Then run afterburner , and set gpu clok to 700Mhz, memory clok 1700, aply, and in game it's run gpu to 700Mhz, no pressing P1 button !!
But I want to press only P1 button for more gpu clok...
sorry for bad english.

For anyone that needs help setting the overclock tool to run at startup, just set a task to run the tool with admin priveleges at user login with the task scheduler.
Can confirm this works for me, I can now use my turbo button and change brightness without SCM crashing on the latest Nvidia drivers (331.65).
