K7N2 Delta-L : the right temperature ?

Hi,
When I launch MSI utility PC Alert 4 (latest version), and when I compare the temperatures indicated by Harware Sensor Monitor or others monitoring programs, PC Alert always give a temperature higher of 5-6° C.
Which monitoring tool I can trust ?
Thank you.

About Nvidia system utiliy, I have another question: it shows that AUX tension (voltage) is about 3,5 volts, and on the graph it is very high (marked in red !). What that means ? is it a fake info or there is a problem with my system ?
DONT look at it.
the more you ignore it the better.
its like that for everyone as far as i know.
this question has been up before.

  • Which is the right temperature for an iMac

    Hello; My iMac is usually running about 50/55º (centigrades) and sometimes, using Aperture it can rise at 78º. Is this normal for an iMac?. I ask this because I remember not long ago, the temperature was about 45º

    First before you go installing the SMCFanController if one of your fans is reporting 0 then the first thing you need to do is reset the SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1543?viewlocale=en_US and see if that fixes it. Otherwise you have an immediate problem.
    In response to your original question about temperature, we need to know which sensor you are talking about because there are 11 temperature sensors in your iMac. The CPU temp itself will fluctuate quite a bit depending on load. It can very easily get up to 78C but usually will only stay at that temp briefly. Can you post up all of your temperatures?

  • K7N2 Delta-L board operating temperature

      Hello,
      I'm just curious what would be concidered a "normal" operating temperature for this board?  
      I've had my set-up running for about 10 days now with no problems (XP3000+ processor),but last night my computer reset itself.
      When I took a look at my equipment stats I noticed my mainboard temperature was 35C, while processor temp was listed at 31C...would this be normal?
      I have good fans and air-flow, and even removed the side panel to see if that made a difference, but the temp only came down 1C.
      Perhaps the temp readings are inaccurate...just looking for some ideas on what could be wrong (other than bad memory, bad PSU, etc etc  :P)
    Cheers,
    Hautz

    What BIOS version are you running, current BIOS is reading temp about -10deg from true.  Do you have the thermal protection enabled in BIOS?  The temps are well within normal operating range.  Any windows messages when the system is restarted?

  • 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.

  • K7N2 DELTA-ILSR AND DDR-RAM

    I got K7N2 Delta-ILSR, the last bios version, and
    2x256 twinmos pc3200 ram. The 50% of the times the computer startes without problems, but the other 50% it gets hang up when I start the computer and the "d-Leds" indicate:" the memory module is damaged or not installed properly".
    I know that the ram-modules works, but not with this Motherboard.
    I need to get new ram-modules.
    Somebody have the K7N2 DELTA-ILSR, with ddr-ram that works ??? (not K7N2G- IL and ILSR)

  • Can't install OEM version of WinXP on the K7N2 Delta!??!?

    I posted on amdmb.com's forums about how I cannot get WinXP to install on my hard drive connected to the k7n2 delta. Wonkanoby, a senior moderator on one of the boards here, and a visiotor on those boards at amdmb.com, stated that OEM versions won't work on this mainboard and you have to have a retail box windows version. Is this true? if so, this is complete crap! If MSI thinks I'm going to spend $150 bucks on a retail boxed version of Xp when I have a perfectly fine working copy right here, they are N U T S!!! This has got to be the most outrageous thing I've ever heard concerning mainboard issues. I hope MSI realizes they will either be working on a bios fix or they're paying me the restocking fee to send this board back to Newegg.

    How to Install the OEM Version Windows XP Professional
    Last updated: 6/18/02
    Q.  How Do You Install the Windows XP Pro OEM Version?
    A.  I install it on a new computer (or hard disk drive taken down to "bare metal") from the DOS prompt with a Windows 98 Startup floppy (http://duxcw.com/digest/Fromshop/software/windows/startup/startup.htm). Put a copy of smartdrv.exe on the Startup floppy. You should be able to find a copy on and existing Windows 9x/Me computer at C:windows. It is on the CD’s in D:win98.  Boot to the floppy and use fdisk to partition the drive (the process the same as that at http://duxcw.com/digest/Howto/software/windows/upgrade/fdisk.htm. Format the C: drive. Do not install the system files. If you have more than one partition, they can be formatted during the Windows XP installation or with Windows XP after it is installed. Also, use fdisk to manually make C: active if there is more one partition. Load smartdrv.exe…
    A:>smartdrv.exe
    …and run D:i386winnt.exe, where D: is your CD-ROKM drive.
    Do not delete or reformat C: with this method.  Winnt.exe copies the install files to that partition. You can convert it to NTFS and that process is fast.  It should also work if the i386 directory is copied to a scratch hard disk and the hard disk is connected to the secondary IDE interface.
    OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer = a company that makes/markets computers (and parts), etc. which include parts made by other companies, and not the “original” manufacturer as OEM implies, just masquerading as one.  Licenses of OEM versions of Windows, etc. software are sold to computer manufactures for installation on new computers.  They are full versions of Windows, not upgrades.  They are widely available on the "grey market" and Internet and cost considerably less than retail full versions.  Just be careful not to purchase a pirated copy.

  • Can I have an oppinion on the K7N2 Delta-ILSR

    I'm looking for my next board and after reading this article dated:August 2003,in Maximum PC mag, I wanted to know more. I have always been a Pentium guy so I don't know anyting about AMD and it's compatibilities...what is a fast processer for this board..?
    How would it compare to the Pentium in Gigahertz?
    Is this mother board even worth the trouble..?
    So many questions, so little time.  

    I have and love hate my MSI K7N2 Delta when its working its a great board but it can tax you at times.
    I've learned a lot in building this one.  I have been building computers for years started with the K6 III 450 and a FIC motherboard.
    I never had any problems with any of them just put togather load and use.
    The only other time I had any real problems with any of my computers was when ME came out I jumped right away what a mistake that was it was mouths before all the drivers where fixed and even than some never got fixed and had to quit using some of my hardware like a sound Card etc.
    The Nvidia chipset that is the heart of the K7N2 Delta is very picky about what ram you use even some that look like there working can give you headaces.
    Also they take very good power supplies the cheap 300 to 400 wat power supplies just won't hack it. Get a good one. Antec, Enermax etc.

  • Does the K7N2 Delta-L have LBA 48 addressing?

    I want to add a 250GB HD but the FAQ for the K7N2 Delta says that it can only support up to 160GB drives. It should be able to support drives higher than 160GB if it has LBA 48 addressing, right? I don't if it does. Or maybe the FAQ is just out of date as it could have been made before 200+ drives existed? All I'd like to know is if I install a 250GB drive on this mobo it will not be detected as a 160GB. And yes, I have XP SP2. Thanks.

    hello welcome to forum.
    yes your mobo support LBA with 48bit addressing.
    if you add 250GB HDD will detected correctly at his full capacity.

  • Temperature reading for K7N2 Delta ILSR

    I have a 2500+ Barton (333 FSB) to work with K7N2 Delta ILSR and 2x256 MB Samsung DDRAM(400 FSB).I use MBM to read my CPU temperatures.Usually 45-47 C idle and 54-58 C under full load.I overclock CPU to 400 FSB and I get LOWER TEMPERATURES!!!!!
     I use 1:1 bios setting for CPU and DRAM speeds either 333 or 400 FSB.
     How can this by possible?

    I use Speedfan which seems to follow the temp in the bios. I've heard that MBM is also accurate. As far as your temps going down on a OC that is very odd indeed.  

  • Operating temperatures of K7N2-Delta L and CPU

    I was wondering what the temperature at which the motherboard cut power to the CPU was for a K7N2-Delta L?
    Also, what are standard operating temperatures for an AMD Athalon XP 2200+?
    Thanks

  • TROUBLE with the K7N2-DELTA

    I just purchased and set up a K7N2-DELTA. I am having a problem. I cant get to the bios... all I see is the slpash screen with the 8x graphic.
    My D-Bracket shows three green and one red and unless the manual is wrong it means that the floppy is being initialized.
    I have tried switch the cable around ever which way, clearing the CMOS and restarting, tried three different floppy drives, two different cables but all I get is a fancy 8x graphic and a red light. I have tried to boot nothing but a video card (GeForce MX440 8x 128mb), one stick of ram (512 kingston pc266), HD (WD) and a CD drive (took off the floppy) and it still isn't working.
    I will try any suggestion besides throwing the MB out the window :o).
    HELP PLEASE!!!!!!
    I have also tried pushing DEL before the graphic appears and then the D-Bracket says initializing the memory. I even switch between 1 and 2 using 1&2, 1&3, 1&2, just 1 and just 2.
    I cant believe that I bought this new board and I cant even get to my BIOS... any and all help would be appreciated. X(

    Your right the D Bracket is not correct and has actually hurt instead of helped me troubleshoot.
    After more trouble shooting I think it is my HD that is at fault here. Maybe someone can relate to this and or has a solution.
     I have the following set up
    IDE 1
    Master- 40gb HD (which I will refer to as HD1) (which is the one I'm having problems with)
    Slave- 40gb HD (which I will refer to as HD2)
    IDE 2
    Master- CDRW
    Slave- DVD
    I'm having some real issues with this. Again my system wont go past the slash screen before bios. I can get past this problem by doing the following.
    On IDE1 put CD drive as master and set HD1 as Slave. It will boot to bios but the bios wont read the HD1 and it says the CD is IDE1 Slave. I dont understand this because the jumpers are set as master and it is the first on the IDE cable.
    I have hooked HD1 to another system and ran WD diag floppy and erased the entire thing and tested and it says no errors are found.
     Move the drive to the MSI board and I'm stuck at the splash.
     I have tried moving jumpers to CS and SLAVE and standalone but no changes.
    HD2 is my old C drive so I dont want to try this as MASTER and re-install XP or I will loose data.
    Hopefully this will find someone who has experiance the same or similar problems and have some advice for me.
    One more thing.. on a seperate comuter HD1 reads as a drive in XP and works fine... just cant get to to work on the new board.
    ANY SUGGESTIONS????

    If your not hearing dial tone you might have your phone plugged into the wrong port. Most modems have 2 outlets, one is labeled line ( that is the one you should have plugged into the jack (RJ11C). If that's correct, query the modem and see if it tests OK, you may have a defective modem.

  • K7N2 Delta: what are the fastest cpu available?

    I have a K7N2 Delta-ILSR with a AMD Athlon XP 2200+
    I am thinking about upgrading the CPU.
    On the product page: http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=K7N2_Delta-ILSR&class=mb
    it says that it "Supports 600MHz up to Athlon™ XP 3000+ processor or higher"
    What does that exactly mean?
    It supports Athlon XP 3000+ but what is the "higher" processors that it can support??
     ??? ??? ???

    CPU List HERE.
     You just have to make sure you have BIOS as shown near top of list to support any 200/400Mhz FSB CPU you might get (Barton 3000+/3200+ ~ 200/400Mhz FSB). The earliest BIOS's only supported up to 166/333Mhz FSB
     I'm also assuming you now have PC2100 RAM and you would also need to upgrade to either PC2700 or PC3200 depndinding on which CPU you get keeping in mind that PC3200 should also work with the 166/333Mhz CPU's
    Thanks for the link.
    I see that the AthlonXP 3000+ has a FSB of 166,
    Higher than that there is the 3000+ and 3200+ with FSB of 200.
    Now lets see if i understand correctly:
    My current processor 2200+ (1.8ghz) has 133MHZ = FSB 266
    The 3200+ (2.2ghz) has a 200 MHZ = FSB 400
    The specifications of the board say that it supports fsb of 400 so it should work with that processor.
    You say i have to upgrade the memory also?
    Im using DDR333 - PC 2700 that operate at 166mhz
    I need to switch to DDR400 - PC 3200 that operate at 200mhz for the 3200+ to work? Or can i still use my current memory?
