Again though, I'm confused by people's comments.  They are saying the Barton runs in the 30-40c range, but this simply is NOT true for the general populous (if you are using internal diode temperatures).  If you are going to say that then there needs to be a distinction of some kind otherwise people are going to get confused.  I realize it's a paradigm shift, but it has to be made.  Otherwise you have tons of people (like in these forums) that freak when their monitoring software suddenly tells them they are in the 50-60c range (which for a barton chip with internal diode monitoring is perfectly normal and acceptible).  Unfortunatly it was just sprung on us with no warning that the CPU temps are now an internal diode and not an external one.
For example, my system which is not OC'd, has a lapped copper HS and water cooling with many case fans, positive case pressure, etc is still running at 40c idle and up to 50c under a high graphical load.  Under these circumstances, no one can say that I should be getting temps between 30 and 40C.  
to hossmonkey,
Yes, that information is correct as far as the highest temperatures are concerned, but I wish they would come out with suggested operating temperatures as obviously higher temps consistantly will shorten the life of the chip and induce noise.  Any idea if someone somewhere has a list like that?

  • K7N2 Delta & keyboard issues?

    Just put together a nice new system, I love the nforce2 board but i'm having issues with my keyboard. Its a logitech elete duo wireless but the same thing happens with standard ps/2 keyboards. In several of my games, I am unable to bind the arrow keys. Also, functions prebound to the arrow keys misfunction. i.e. when I try to walk in CS/halflife/Urban Terror it also triggers primary fire. Other games like standard Quake 3 and Vice city work fine...so I'm out of ideas. I have the newest chipset, video, and keyboard drivers.
    Thanks in advance for any help,

    Have you updated your BIOS to the most current version?
    I tried my Logitech wireless on my ASUS board and my K7N2G-ILSR and it wouldn't work properly on either one...it's something with the nf2 chipset I'm thinking but I haven't researched it in depth because I have 4 systems and parts to build more so I use a Logitech MX700 mouse and my original MS Natural Black Keyboard PS/2...winning combo and why fix something that isn't broke?

  • Another K7N2 Delta reset issue

    After having a good look through the forum today I believe this will be an all too familiar issue.
    Recently purchased K7N2 Delta (not the ILSR) along with XP 2500 Barton and 512mb PC3200 Kingston RAM.  Put all of the kit together with no real problems (apart from the frightening ammount of pressure I had to apply to the Aero 7 screwdriver clip to get it to lock onto the mount).  Installed Windows XP Pro SP1 with no problems installed all of the updated drivers with the MSI update util and installed the most recent certified driver for the vid card from Nvidia homepage.
    PC booted OK changed FSB to 166 in order to recognise the XP2500 installed MSI CPU monitoring software.  CPU temp in BIOS around 38C, and from software approx 40C (idle). All looked great!
    However, I then installed No One Lives Forever 2 set all the details to high (OK on my old PIII 700) and when I attepmted to run the game PC reset itself  (as if the reset button has been pressed).  Tried it again on low detail setting the game ran for a bit longer (approx 1 min) and then reset again.
    An error is reported in the Event log (event ID 1003 source system error) I have checked this on Technet and it appears to be a generic hardware error.
    So I think it may be 1 of 3 things.
    1. Cr@p PSU (I will add the details below)
    2. Dodgy/incompatible memory (I have heard that the Kingston can be a bit hit and miss with this chipset.
    3. Overheating CPU. I was a little bit stingy when applying the Coolermaster Premium Thermal paste, but all of the monitors a reporting that the CPU is relatively cool.
    Details of the PSU are as follows..
    Eagle 350W. Mod DR-b350ATX (supplied with case)
    +3.3v  -  28a
    +5v     -  35a
    +12v   -  16a
    -5v  -  0.3a  -  1.5w
    -12v -  0.8a -  9.6w
    +5vsb - 2a - 10w
    I am leaning towards a weedy PSU but some advice would be great!  Thankyou for your time.
    IllPhil.

    Right.  Ive just checked the cooler and it appears to be mounted the right way round (clip on the outside of the Motherboard and looks flush with the cpu).
    I did however change the FSB/DRAM ratio from By SPD to 1:1 and this appears to have done the trick.  POST now reports 'DRAM clock for DDR 333' and NOLF2 loaded with highest detail settings and played without a hitch for about 1/2 hour.  Also tested OK with BurnTest and 3dMark2003 (p!ss poor score of 1699 though but ill have to tinker with the driver and maybe overclock a bit to get that up).  So it looks like you hit the nail on the head their Wonk.  Could you recommend some stress testing software I could try so I can give it a good soak test?
    Oh and I almost forgot the PSU combined wattage figures are 200w, 192w and 330w.
    Thanks again.

  • More K7N2 Delta ILSR issues

    After resolving many issues I've got with my K7N2 Delta ILSR (I still have no regret because I choose it over Abit or Epox), there are still some problems I could not overcome:
    1. the system cannot resume standby (it goes in S1 or S3, but hangs when resuming before any image appears on monitor)
    2. at a freq when I have stability with default vcore, raising vcore is producing instability (system freeze when running prime95)
    3. system temp reported by mbm -last version- seems high: 48-52 degrees; the proc temp is always 4 degrees -no more, no less- higher
    My specs: K7N2 Delta ILSR, Barton 2600@2170Mhz (10.5x206)  cooler master aero 7+,

    How about some info regarding what you are using in the system? We don't have the ability to peer into your office/home to see what's in your system...
    If you read the sticky posts at the top of the forum first you may find that you might answer your question first...alternatively do a search regarding your problem and you may find posts that will help you to find answers as well...

  • MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR Questions & RAID Promise FastTrak Controller Issue

    I have recently rebuilt my system replacing the MSI KT3 with an MSI K7N2 Delta. I have been impressed with the features and stability of the system, however, I have some questions that I hope some of you that have more experience of this board can answer:
    1. I am using the AMD Athlon XP 2200 (and all the other components including the Lian Li case) which I was using on the KT3 board. The CPU temperature is around 45 degrees C but on the KT3 it was only 35 degrees C when idle. Any ideas ? The heatsink is definetly mounted properly. The temperature did drop by 10 degrees C when I flashed the
    BIOS to fix the known CPU temperature issue but I think its still high.
    2. I do not have any serial ATA devices or anything connected to IDE3 channel and during the BIOS boot up I get the message:
     "No drives attached to FastTrak Controller. Bios Not installed."
    Is this correct ? Should I be getting this message ?
    I would like to disable the onboard Promise Controller since it is taking up resources and it slows down the boot speed (although only slightly). The MSI website says that the onboard RAID controller can't be disabled. I think this is poor design. Does anyone know if this is going to be addressed in future BIOS releases ?
    3. Which of the USB ports are USB 2.0 and USB 1.1. I thought it was rather strange that only 2 of the 4 ports on the header actually active.
    Many thanks for your help.
    Rupesh

    First off your temp is ok on that board. If you have not loaded the onboard raid driver do so and it is something you have to suffer with on the MSI board. All of your USB ports should run at USB 2.0 and you also should be able enable all of them in the bios.

  • K7N2-Delta Power-On Issues

    I recently purchased a K7N2-Delta board, with an AMD 2600 processor, and an All in wonder Radeon 9800 pro. Those of you familiar with the new radeons know they require an additional power source. When I connect this power source, my system will not boot. The fans spin a couple revolutions, then stop. It is not a memory/Processor issue, as I have replaced those. The board will also post with an older video card. I am using a PowMax (I think?) 500 W power supply, which should have ample power to power the machine. I've also tried with EVERYTHING else disconnected, except the fans, and it still would not work. If i unplug the additional power that the card recieves, it will start up, and the radeon screen comes up letting me know I need to connect the additional power cord.
    Thanks for your help!

    Hello Malestrm,
    Sorry to hear about your problem. I know if can be very frustrating. I built my computer few months ago, also with a K7N2 Delta-L AMD 1700+ and Radeon 9700 Pro.
    I also had the exact same problem as yours. I spent alot of time trying to figure out the problem, but nothing worked. My ultimate solution, since I couldn't afford to spend more money was to leave my computer ON once I had it running.
    However, whenever I did turn it off, the only way to restart from a cold boot was to keep trying to ON the Main Switch and after each time it didn't work i had to turn off the MAIN PSU SWITCH and then turn it ON again.
    It was very annoying. And no one on any forum boards was able to help, even tho they tried.
    Right now - my radeon card is dead and I am running an old geforce 2 which doesn't cause the same problem.
    Also, since I was working as a computer teacher in a school during that time, I had access to alot of computers and my radeon 9700 pro would work completely fine in any other one. Even the old ones. So I doubt it was a problem with the card or the PSU. I am using ICute 350W. But the card successfully ran on far lower amp/watta PSUs.
    I reckon it is most likely a mobo fault - in which case I should actually be asking MSI for some sort of compensation. But then again I am too busy to start the whole frustrating process again.
    Hope you do have some better luck, and if you do ultimatly find a solution, please drop me a note.

  • K7N2 Delta Issue

    I just recieved my new K7N2 Delta MB. My issue is that I keep locking up during the boot process.
    I get into the CMOS setup and as I change some settings I get locked up.
    I let it run through the boot process and it locks up at random times.
    I have zero clue as to what may cause this issue.
    My setup looks like this...
    Athlon XP 2100
    2x512 pc2700 centron memory
    GeForce FX 5600 256mb
    200 gig HDD conected to the Ultra ATA contoller in my PCI slot.
    SB Live 5.1
    Sony dru500a dvd writer
    Thanks for any help and/or suggestions.

    I have built alot of systems and i can tell you that this board is ram sensitive. I tried initially to install a stick of Geil 3200 with the copp :O er heat spreaders(i forget the xact model) and i got the woefull long single beep code. I would hit reset button and it would allow me to boot, sometimes. To check the memory i installed on an older 1st generation Nforce board and it works without a hitch. I then installed a couple of sticks of PC2100 256 into the dual channel setup, two different brands, no problems. I just ordered a stick of PC 3200 hyper X ram and prayerfully it will work, i do believe it is NF2 approved. I will follow up.

    I have assembled the entire system but have run into a road block. I get the BLUE SCREEN of death everytime I try to install the system. I have double checked all jumpers on every piece of hardware. I have also double checked everything in my BIOS, which is at the current version. I have also disable and swaped hardware to narrow the problem.
    I still got the error message. Naturally I assumed it was now the RAM. I started with a Kingston HyperX KHX2700/512 module. I put in in the second DIMM slot. I then went out and bougth another Kingston Module KVR333/512. Still the same error. I then tried slower RAM, PNY PC2100 512 Module. All modules placed in the second DIMM. I even tried moving them to the first DIMM slot. Again the same problem.
    With the Kingston memory the FSB/DRAM ration was 1:1 and the FSB was set to 166mhz. I have found numerious posts in this forum and tried them all. Does anyone know what could be wrong? Any and all help is appreciated.
    I think it's either my RAM choice or PSU. Here are the schematics for the PSU.
    +5v 30a max
    -12v 0.8a max
    -5v 0.3a max
    +12v 25a max
    +3.3v 28a max+5sb 2.0a max
    I have plugged in the 12v cpu power supply as well. System and Bios cache disabled. I have tried installing Windows 2003 Server and Windows XP Pro. No luck on any.

    Hi,
    Brownman: Although disabling APIC seems to have solved your problem, it may come back and bite you on the a**. The APIC option in the BIOS gives your OS 22 (or 23 I forget which) IRQ addresses for different pieces of hardware you install. With APIC disabled you are restricted to 16 IRQ's (0-15) if you install a lot of new hardware in the future, you may run out of IRQ's. If you are installing XP it's also a good idea to install it with PNP OS disabled in the BIOS.
    BTW, you didn't have an "Active" cable connected to your NIC card while you were installing XP? If this is the case you should unplug it - this can stop an XP install dead in it's tracks.

  • [nForce] K7N2 Delta 2 LSR boot/power up issues

    I installed the K7N2 Delta LSR mb with an Athlon XP socket A 3000+ cpu.  The computer turns on but won't boot.  Nothing appears on the monitor screen and there are no beeps.  The harddrive spins, the board has power but nothing happens. When I put my old mother board back (MSI K7T Pro266A) in with the Athlon 2000+, everything works fine.
    Maxtor 60 gb harddrive
    512 MB SD pc2100 SD Ram
    Abit 128 mb Radeon 9200SE Video card
    Any suggestions?

    A few things to check:
    Do you have any unused stand offs in the case touching the motherboard 
    The XP3000 CPU is a barton core and comes in two variants, a 333FSB and a 400FSB version.  Your RAM is PC2100 which with an Nforce chipset is a recipie for problems. The NForce chipset is picky about RAM and PC2100 running on a PC2700/PC3200 processor FSB probably won't work.   
    Also post your PSU max amps, as a +12V rail below 16A could cause problems. 
    Do you have a D-Bracket connected ?  This is the PCI insert with 4 leds on ?   

  • HELP me with my K7N2 delta ilsr

    Can anyone help me with this problem. I have just upgraded to MSI's K7N2 delta ilsr motherboard. Its all working quite well apart from the fact that the pc wont start up from cold....at all.
    When I start the pc from an off state, it runs up the fans and drives, but does not post.
    The diagnostic led pannel on the back of the pc shows that the cpu is faulty or not installed correctly.
    If I then press the reset button, the pc posts, and boots up just fine.
    It does this EVERY time I start up.
    I have tried re installing the cpu, which is an XP 2800+ 333 barton, but to no avail.
    I have asked a few questions on other forums, but I cant solve it.
    These are the suggestions so far.
    1. the psu (I have a Tsunami 400 atx psu) could not be giving out enough power on initial startup, but once the pc is running, it has enough to boot the pc from a reset.
    2. The mobo or the bios could be at fault. I have not flashed the bios, or upgraded it in any way from original, so is there an issue with the original bios on these boards, and 2800 barton chips??? Could it be a mobo fault? The pc runs fine once the machine is booted.? how do I test it?
    3. The cpu could be faulty? but would this not stop it running fuull stop?
    4. my ram. I have a single stick of OCZ 512mb pc3200 ddr, which I was told would make the pc fly. Not shure on that statement, but is this ram compatible?? could this be the problem?
    Im fairly new to the upgrade side of things, and I need some help with this one.
    Also, Id be really greatfull if some one could talk me through flashing my bios to the latest version, as the thought of doing this narks me a bit...I dont want to mess it up and get a dead pc...

  • Strange phantom restarts on MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR

    Just wanted to see if I could get opinions on this. My MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR mobo runs real nice now, but still, on occasion, very rare and intermittently, it will just restart. Not likely a heat issue, as the temps are nice and low. Also, not just happenning when I'm playing a game or anything strenuous. Did it once while checking email, once during install of an MS Office program, and once during a game. Could it be my old Gforce 2 MX 200 video card, as the picture sometimes gets wavy (like fine waves on an ocean), and the old computer it was in did similar things, or is it common with this mobo.
    MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR
    Athlon XP 2500+ Barton
    1026 MB Kingston DDR RAM (2x512 Dual)
    Gforce 2 MX 200 AGP 4x
    WD 60 GB 7200 RPM

    I had errors on test 4 not 5 with Winbond 2-512 Dual Channel called Hardcore Cooling and they said that getting errors with memtest86 may not mean that the ram is defective, it may not be compatible with the memory comtrol and they had me RMA it back. I also was not able to run the ram stable at there advertized rate of 6 2 2 2 it was only stable at 8 3 3 2.5
    I replaced it with OCZ after talking to there Tech support people about compatiblety problems with the Nvidia chipset. Sense I installed the OCZ I only had one ram reboot and when I checked I was running the voltage at 2.5 and OCZ said that I should be running at 2.6. They also said that I could run it up to 2.8 with no worry.
    Look on manufactor web site to see what ram timing yours should be running at and what voltage, Auto setting in Bios is not always the best setting.
    If it still not stable at manufactor spec than I'd talk to who ever you bought it from about replacing it or refund and buy something thats on the Nvidia compatible list.
    Most ram manufactors have a list of motherboards that there ram will work on but sometimes the newer boards like K7N2 or not listed yet as still working that out.

  • Data corruption on MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR

    Hi all,
    Just got my new MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR up and running.
    Got some issues with the memory running at 200mhz while the Barton core of my Athlon Xp 2600+ was running 166mhz, this had to be 1:1 (thx forum  )
    While running the default bios settings with cpu/mem at 166/166 fsb everything is stable as hell. I have been running Prime95 for 2 days now and using the system for dvd ripping/encoding, UT2004 gaming etc.
    Then the overclocking began   I'm using the standard AMD cooler that came with my boxed Xp2600+ so I didn't expect an FSB of 200mhz.
    I stopped at an FSB of 190mhz...been crunching Prime95 for 18 hours now and again very stable.
    Now comes the problem : Sometimes I get crc errors when installing a game or decrypting a dvd!! But how can this be? Prime95 is stable at this 190fsb overclock.
    When using an FSB of 166mhz no data corruption or crc errors.
    What can this be? It's not the cables because they're all the same as in my old setup which was running (ahum...walking) stable. PCI/AGP speeds are locked when overclocking...
    Only thing I can think of is the power supply. I've read in a warning post from Bas that the Q-Tec 550w psu I have is crap. So my guess is PSU, but maybe it's something else I'm forgetting...Any suggestions??
    The stupid thing is when I'm not overclocking I don't have the data corruption problems, but I'm still using the same crappy Q-Tec 550w PSU.
    Help!  
    gr,
    Remco

    Hmmm, that's curious. On the MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR product page Kingston memory is recommended  
    Ok, did a Memtest86 v1.11 pass at cpu/dimm 166/166 - no problems whatsoever. I think using Prime95 would have revealed memory problems...but will do another pass with cpu/dimm at 190/190.
    Can overclocking affect the Promise Raid Controller?? It should be locked like the PCI/AGP but who knows...
    Well, I still have to replace my PSU but I'm not 100% sure that this is the problem. What PSU would you recommend? ...and I'm also thinking about replacing the standard CPU cooler, any advice is welcome

  • MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR (MS-6570) BSOD problems grrr

    I recently purchased this board and although it is an awesome product, I'm having a problem with BSOD's when I play a game for a certain period of time
    Specs:
    MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR  (7.6 BIOS)
    AMD Athlon XP 2800+ Barton
    512MB (2x256MB) Samsung PC-2700 DDR memory (2.5-3-3-6 1T)
    MSI 128MB GeForce4 Ti 4200 (4X AGP)
    NVIDIA nForce on-board sound
    Western Digital 80GB drive w/ 8MB cache
    MSI X48 CD/CD-RW/DVD combo drive
    Windows XP Professional SP1
    PSU:
    Turbolink 420watt (came with case)
    +3.3V is 28A
    +5V is 40A
    +12V is 18A
    So what happens is I get a STOP error during the game that shows the kmixer.sys driver as the culprit. Sometimes it's accompanied by PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA too. I read somewhere that kmixer.sys has to do with windows audio and that it's a 3rd party driver issue or a memory issue. I'm using the latest NVIDIA 3.13 nForce platform drivers. I ran Memtest lastnight for 12 hours straight and 0 errors. I'm thinking the memory may not be compatible with the board nor dual channel, is this possible? I have also tried several different drivers for both video and chipset including MSI's own and I still get the kmixer.sys BSOD when playing games. My previous motherboard was an MSI KT3 Ultra2-R (MS-6380E) which I had no issues with. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
    --Update--
    I just tried to play a game with audio disabled and it crashed this time with DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL with nv4_mini.sys as the problem. My IRQ table shows some sharing, but device manager shows no conflicts.

    Ok I tried running the DTM-CB3 module which is nForce2 approved at 3-4-4-11 2T timings and experienced the same result even at 2.6 and 2.7v. I tried both in dual-channel and same thing happened. However, I downloaded a program called Prime95 and ran the CPU torture test and the system returned a fatal error within the first few minutes. CPU Temp was at 57 C and the warning beep (set to 60C though) sounded intermittentley which is strange. I let it cool down then ran the torture test again and about 5min. later the system either seized completely or the program crashed. IE has also crashed randomly on me. I did this several times, before trying a different FSB/DRAM ratio. So I left the system at 200 FSB and used a 6:5 ratio so my memory was running at DDR333 and processor was a 3200+. I ran Prime95 again and the system locked up just as it did the other times.  So after I did this a few times with consistent results. I went back and set the FSB to 166 and tried a 5:6 ratio so the memory was DDR400 and processor was the normal 2800+. I ran it again and to my suprise it passed all the tests and after an hour of this, I tried a game and that was perfectly fine as well. I checked the temps and CPU was only 45 C this time. So I'm thinking the processor can't handle anything above 50C or it's just plain overheating. I ordered a Thermaltake Silent Boost HSF today which is tested up to 3400+ so this should fix my problem. If not, then I'm going to replace the memory with a 512MB Geil PC3200 golden dragon dual-channel kit.

  • MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR and Mushkin

    Does anyone know if the MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR has any issues with Mushkin ram. Specifically, with Mushkin PC3200 2-2-2? I previously had Mushkin PC2100 2-2-2 in it with no issues, but that was on a 266 FSB. On a 400 FSB, there may be issues. I dont know.

    I did a little troubleshooting on my own and learned some things. I borrowed my neighbors computer (athlon xp 2600+ (266) on an asus A7N8X-E Deluxe with 2 512 meg sticks of Mushkin PC2100 2-2-2 ram). This computer has a generic 300 watt power supply, so you have to take this into account after seeing the results. First I ran prime95 on his machine and it ran rock solid. I substituted my PC3200 memory in his machine, and first ran it at 266 with no errors. Then I bumped the memory up to 333 and I got an error after 1 hour 17 minutes. Then I bumped the memory up to 400 and couldnt get past 10 minutes without an error.
         I then put my proc and his memory in his computer, and my proc ran stable, and I didnt get any of the rebooting that I was getting in my machine. When I put my memory in his machine with my proc, I get about the same results as with his proc.
         When I put my proc in my machine with his PC2100 memory, I still got some rebooting. When I substituted my PC3200 memory in, I still got the rebooting.
         I then underclocked my processor down from 200 mhz bus to 191, and kept the ratio at 1:1 for memory, and still got some rebooting.
         I then changed the ratio to 6:5, so the bus is now 159. The timings are at 5-2-2-2. The computer is running very stable and goes through prime95 with no errors.
         I can put my proc and ram in my neighbors computer and get no rebooting, whereas in mine it wont stop rebooting when I have it set to spec. It looks like I have to change my mobo and/or my PSU. My PSU is an Enermax 431 watt and I have never heard of an Enermax going bad. That makes me suspect the mobo a little more, but I dont really know.
         I will continue to experiment with bus speeds, ratios, and timings to see if I can get any more out of this system. But at least it is running OK now.
