K7N2 D ISLR. SO!! It was the pesky PSU after all! Jeantech users look in.

Well, further down the board I made a thread about having graphics problems.
I went through a load of messing about and trouble shooting.
 In the end I thought it was the monitors....
 Not completly happy with this explanation I took my K7N2 Delta Islr back to the retailers who went through a load of messing about to discover the cause of the problem.
 Turns out it was that old favourite of The MSI world after all...the PSU.
Iwas lazy and went to my local PC World and got myself a Jeantech 500w. It says it's going to give you 18 amps at +12v but it doesn't....so don't waste your time or cash guys.
 I've now got myself CWT PSU with 24amps at +12. It has done me proud  here
 So the moral of the story is... Don't get lazy or cheap with your PSU, you'll only have to go back and get yourself a proper PSU.
I'm sorry if anyone has been led down the wrong path by my previous thread's conclusion,   for me.
 Mods, Would it be possible to have a list of proven PSU's that people have used? It might prove pretty usefull for other power supply sufferers.
 Cheers guys.

Aaahh, another fine example of people like us not listening to the forum moderators...
Don't feel too bad, here is my example of "problems" with my build in which I didn't listen either:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threadid=48229&sid=
As far as a list of PSU's; I believe throughout the forum, everyone praises Enermax and Antec.  So for a relieable PSU, I would stick to that brand or look at others' Sigs to see what is working for them.
  Enjoy your pc, I am glad you got it running proper.  Now that mine is trouble free, I know that I am enjoying mine!

  • Why does my late 2013 IMac OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 keep logging of the administrator while leaving all other users logged on?

    Over the past few months I have noticed that my IMac logs off only the administrator account overnight while leaving all other user accounts logged on. The computer does not physically restart, it simply logged out the administator. It has never logged me out while I am using the administrator account, it only logs off the administrator if the computer has been ideal for more than roughly 20 minuets.
    I have checked all of my energy saving settings and security settings and nothing appears to fix this problem. However, after browsing some online help forums I decided to check my console to see if anything look out of place and I did find something.
    I am not sure what it means but I don't think these error messages are good. Can someone help me figure out what these mean and inform me if they are related to me overall problem of getting logged out?
    Thanks

    Hi Linc thank you for getting back to me.
    I don't see anything labeled as crash reports under system diagnostics. I do not use the console very often because I only do basic things on my iMac so my familiarity with it is not as good.
    I know you said you wanted text but I can't past this text here so it is another screen shot. If you see something you want more information on, I can post the text of that specific line.
    Keep in mind, since last night when I originally posted, the administrator account has been logged off, while my other account remained logged on and good to go.

  • How can I stop a purchase download so that I do not get charged as I do not want the TV episode after all?

    Mac OS X Lion 10.7.1
    iTunes 10.4.1
    I thought I was going to see information about a TV episode. I was wrong. iTunes started downloading it. I have paused it but can not find any way to cancel download so that I will not be charged for it. I never saw any prommpt asking me if I was sure I wanted to purchase it. Solution appreciated.

    Stopping the download will not stop the charge.  It was purchased the moment you clicked buy.  You will be charged if you donwload it or not.
    Let it download.  You can then delete it if you like.

  • Can I re-charge the Battery in the FiOS BBU (after all it is basically a 12v Motorcycle battery..)

    (I don't even have FiOS Digital Voice service anyway...so I don't care if the battery dies I will just take it out...I see no reason to buy a battery (at my expense ) for a service I don't have. 
    I also don't see why I need to buy a battery for Verizon's Equipment that I am renting..Because if I buy the battery it becomes my property...and I can therefore take it with me when I leave the premises)

    Semantics aside, failure  of the ONT battery is not classified as "ONT failure."  In similar consumer transactions, users are responsible for disposable components, and the battery in question is disposable.  If you want the ONT battery replaced you will have to do it.  This is clearly stated in the VZ TOS, to wit:

    When your remote control batteries expire, please don't spend time waiting for VZ to ship packages of AA batteries.  It's just not in the cards.

  • What is the default password after creating a user with wwsec_api.add_portal_user ?

    Hi,
    I created 850 Portal users with the WWSEC_API calls in PORTAL30 and PORTAL30_SSO. I can logon with an account if manually reset the password for a specific user. But what is the default password of a user after creating it with the API calls ? I tried "password" and the username, but that didn't work.

    The WWSEC_API should not be used to create the user account in the SSO schema. As you noted the WWSEC_API calls do not set the password - these are intended to be used only for setting up Portal profile information. For creating the user that can log in, use the Login Server APIs - in sso/ssoumgt.pks:
    WWSSO_APP_USER_ADMIN.CREATE_USER.

  • What's the best option after all?

    Hi, folks.
    I finally put my hands on my Leopard UTD copy. Yeah, I know it took a lifetime. It's the price we pay for living in the 3rd. world, so, never mind...
    I know this has been talked over and over, but I'd like to gather some clear ideas.
    I'm aware that choosing either Upgrade, or Erase & Install or Archive & Install is a lot related to personal preferences, but which has shown itself as being less problematic? Which could be considered the ideal techinical choice?
    Thanks a lot and sorry for bringing this back to surface again.

    I have been using Mac for 14 years. I have not once had the same success upgrading as clean install...
    I have tried it a few times but after the upgrade something weird always turned up and I wound up doing a clean install...
    You will be just fine doing a clean install... All you gotta though - is to back up your stuff that you need - like what you have in your home folder and applications etc..
    Most applications need installation - so you'll need to install those again---
    The following folder besides your home folder contains lots of stuff that you might wanna glance at before clean installing:
    MacHD/Library/Preferences - This stores system wide preferences and many apps write authorizations preferences to this folder
    MacHD/Library/Application Support - Lots of apps store their belongings here - EG - Logic Audio stores it's factory library here
    MacHD/Library/Audio - If you are an audio person and have installed many Audio Units or Apple Loops this is the folder to look at....
    Besides that most important stuff you'll have in your home folder and this you'll backup anyway...
    I know this sounds like a lot but once you have done it once it'll leave you with a better overlook at your Mac and in the future you'll be knowing what to look for...
    Good Luck

  • I am in the process of completely restoring my Early 2009 MacBook, which is the computer that I originally created my iCloud account with; which, consequently, is the original location of all of the music that finds its way from iCloud-

    Onto all of my other device.  Is all of the music in iCloud safe if I restore my MacBook?
    I have an iPhone and an iMac.  There is a lot of music that I have downloaded from iCloud onto both devices – however, not all.  My question is: will the songs that have not been downloaded onto my iMac from iCloud be lost if I restore the computer that was the original location of all of that music?

    I agree with Keith about using the Target Disk Mode,  Transferring files between two computers using FireWire. This way there's no chance of errors due to dropouts using the wireless connection. 
    According to MacTracker your early 2009 Macbook does have a Firewire 400 connector which should do the job very well.

  • K7N2 Delta ISLR and XP3200 Woes

    Let me share some of my experience with random crashes and lock ups on my main system.
    Hopefully some might find it helpful and others might have useful comments to add.
    It all started when I decided to upgrade my system. I waited until new technology was announced and then went out and bought the hardware that was knocked off the top spot.
    My current system is:
    Althon XP3200 Barton
    1Gig PC3200 (2x512M)
    K7N2 Delta ISLR Bios 7.7
    Radeon 9700pro
    Antec TruePower 550W PSU
    XP Professional
    SATA 120G Barracuda
    When I first assembled the system I could not, and still cannot, get it to run stable as a XP3200 with a FSB of 200MHz (400MHz) and the memory in dual channel mode. The system wouldn’t boot, would randomly crash, would come up with fatal XP errors.
    So after consulting the message boards I was informed it was probably be down to two causes; a inadequate power supply or overheating.
    That is when I went out and bought the Antec TruePower 550W PSU. The reason being the CPU temperature was around 47C - 52C (107F - 115F) with ambient around 35C (88F). Not too hot I thought.
    Anyway this did not solve the problem so I then decided to change the CPU coolers. I now have a nice collection, Alaska, Aero, Gigabyte and others. Current one on order is SLK-900A with a delta FFB0912EHE fan. But again this did not solve the problem.
    I then thought that maybe the ambient inside temperature was too high and therefore pushing the CPU temperature up. To solve this I fitted two hard-drive fans, four 80mm case fans and a PCI exhaust fan. This was on top of the 3 fans already in the system. Still the system would not run. I even took the side panel off and had a 6” mains fan blowing into the case. Still couldn’t make it stable.
    I have just ordered a Thermaltake Wingo V8000A case.
    So I decided to check out the XP3200 and memory. After playing around I found out that:
    1. The memory is fine running dual channel at 400MHz. I ran memtest using my CPU and memory in a friends PC for 12 hours without any problems (Abit board).
    2. The system is stable if I drop the FSB to the processor to 166MHz (333MHz). How I am currently run the machine.
    3. The system was more stable if I ran the memory in single channel mode.
    4. The point it becomes unstable is when the CPU FSB is 192MHz (384Mhz).
    5. The problem occurs on another K7N2 Delta ISLR motherboard. Actually exactly the same problem running a different XP3200 and 1Gig.
    I have tried all possible combinations in the bios, except Vcore, Vddim voltage levels. Which is my next step. I think I need to up the Vcore at higher frequencies as I believe it may be a bios /motherboard inherent problem.
    I hope this might be helpful to some who are experiencing the sample problems.
    Couple of things I don’t like about the mother generally a part from the fact I can’t set it up correctly.
    1. The decoupling capacitors around the CPU socket are too close. This limits the choice of CPU coolers you can fit.
    2. Motherboard components interfere / prevent you from fitting certain cards in the PCI slots. Such as the SPDF adapter that comes with the motherboard.
    And does anyone know:
    1. What is the maximum temperature I should be seeing for stable operation on a XP3200?
    2. Any recommendations on another suitable motherboard? I basically spent all the money I had so if I can’t get it working I’ll bin the motherboard and buy another one.
    Oh, why don't I run it at 333MHz? Well then I got a slower system than I started with and it means I admit defeat!

    I have this same board with the same BIOS and am also using an Athlon XP 3200+ (with Corsair TWINX1024-3200C2 RAM) and had the same excruciating stability problems.  I had tried/tested everything in sight and no stability.  Then I found a posting in this forum made a few months back by WebFan (with an XP 3200+ and basically the same RAM), who said he had the same kind of problem.  He had only achieved stability when he reduced the FSB setting to 192 MHz (obviously not a coincidence).  (Thank you ever so much WebFan.)  I reached the heaven of stability by making the same change.  Then I started experimenting; I moved the bus speed to 193, still okay.  I set the RAM settings to the 3-3-6 2.5 that Corsair says are stable, still okay.  
    Then, and this I believe is the key step, I installed the lastest set of chipset drivers from nVidia (not the older version provided by MSI).  This change subjectively seemed to improve performance noticeably, so I decided to take the big plunge and return the FSB to the rated 200 MHz setting.  It's only been three days, but STILL OKAY!  Before setting the FSB to 192, I was having all kinds of blue-screen crashes numerous times a day.  I haven't had a single one in ten days, three days running at the full 200 MHz.
    It seems to me that the board/chipset were not tuned to handle the 3200+.  If you look at the description of the board on the MSI global site, it says it's compatible with Athlon XP 3000+ and up.  My guess is that only the lastest edition of the drivers, version 4.24/4.27, is up to the job.  (I'm not interested in overclocking and so haven't been interested in seeing if I can do better than the rated 200 MHz setting [400 MHz DDR clock speed].  Leave well enough alone, if you ask me.)
    Try them; you have nothing to lose but your instability.

  • K7N2 Delta ISLR lock-up sound

    Help!
    I just got a K7N2 Delta ISLR and installed it in my system. Over the course of a few painful days I've realized that system has a propensity to lock up after I load the sound drivers for the motherboard. If I don't do that the system is completely stable but of course I don't get sound. I get this problem even when I'm only using one hard drive with nothing else in the system.
    I've followed liquidsoul's NForce 2 Installation How To guide on www.AMDMB.com's forum but to no avail. Has anyone encountered this problem or know how to fix it?
    Thanks!
    My system specs are:
    K7N2 Delta ISLR (newest bios)
    1400 Athlon
    2*128 DDR 266 (generic)
    Plextor 12X burner
    Pioneer 10X DVD-Rom
    80Gb WD HDD 8Mb
    40Gb Maxtor HDD
    40Gb Maxtor HDD
    Promise Ultra 100
    Windows XP Pro SP1
    Logitech Cordless Optical (keyboard & mouse)

    Thanks Deathstalker & scooter787b!
    When I set up the PC originally I only had one hdd in it and I did not install the promise card (you have to install them later because I've found I need to flash the bios of the promise cards so that it will be recognized by windows XP) so I guess I did do the KISS principle (I've learnt my lesson the hard way before).
    That said I did the installation thing and everything looked fine. However, the lock-ups occur at no particular interval so after 3 hours and nothing wrong I installed most of the other hardware booted it up and it seemed good. But a day later the lock-ups started happening. Even removing the extra hdd and promise (btw I did put the promise card in PCI 3) card did not help (I went all the way back down to one hdd and still got the problems). I went through many reinstallations of Windows XP SP1 as well.
    During the process of elimination I even bought a nice OCZ Dual DDR EL Kit but that didn't help. Also, I changed from my 350W enermax to a new 450W enermax. Problem did not stop happening. I know the hard drive I was using is in good condition.
    In terms of drivers I tried the ones that came with it, 2.03, 2.45 and the realtek ones.
    After 7 days of painful elimination I'm leaning towards the problem being the board.

    For video the TI4600 would be fine and is more reasonably prices. As far as RAM Kingston is not on the approved list, like I said it may work fine or you may have problems depending on the chipset, but no matter what type of RAM you buy you definetly want to buy 2 X 256MHz so you can run dual channel.
