K7N2 Delta NIC problem

I have noticed a problem on my machine lately, when i use the onboard NIC the cpu usage jumps from 0 to 60 back and forth and the system is unusable, when I use a 3com PCI NIC instead it works fine, anyone have any idea what the problem can be, I think I have the newest drivers and bios, but that shouldn't matter because it worked fine with the versions that I have earlier. Any help is appreciated.
System Specs:
MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR Mobo
AMD Athlon XP 1900+ CPU
1 Gig Crucial PC 2100 Ram
Liteon DVDRW 411S
ZIP 100 Inernal
WD 100 and 75 Gig HD's
Floppy
ATI 9600 PRO AGP Video Card

i have the k7n2 delta mobo and i use the onboard nic for over an year a half and here are the setting i made:
first of all, install the nforce 5.10 drivers which contains the new drivers for the onboard nic. later, u go to setting and make it work for 10mbps full duplex , optimize it for cpu and disable wake on lan.
i hope it can help you man.

Msi k7n2 delta ilsr problem

hi i have this configuration on my pc:
antec true control 550 watts
msi k7n2 delta ilsr
kingston hyper x pc3700 2x512 mb
athlon xp 3200+
seagate 120 gb sata 7200.7 hd
ati radeon 9800 pro excalibur ice q
i have 2 problems : the first one is that sometimes windows display me a blue screen with certain problem related to ati2dg.dll i think that problem is beacause the video card so i decided to update the bios , in the live update page from msi says that the bios 7.6 fix a bug with ati vga cards but after flashing and updating to bios v7.6 that blue screen with the same error still appearing so i dont know what else to do to solve the problem and the second one is that when i start any game or make the processor to work a little mostly related with video stuff the case speaker start to beep and the pc lags until he restarts with no reason i really dont know why if u can help me thank you

Foxtrotccs,
In the BIOS try setting the AGP to 4X and disable Sidebanding. Then set the AGP Apeture to 256. See if that helps.
Make sure you are running the lastest nVidia nForce Drivers and the latest ATI Catalyst Drivers
Take Care,
Richard
P.S. There is still a possibility that the Kingston RAM is the problem.

Possible K7N2 Delta-ILSR Problem?

Hi all.
I'm after some advice, if I may be so bold.
As you can see from my sig, i'm running a k7n2 Delta ilsr mobo with a 333MHZ Athlon XP3000+, which is being correctly reported.
I've got 2x 512Mb DDR400 modules in slots 1 & 2.
A powercolor Radeon 9600 Pro 256Mb in the AGP slot.
My problem is this :
When playing a game (IE BF1942, Tiger Woods 2004, NFS Underground), the game will play fine for the first few minutes, then will either exit to the desktop or reboot the machine.
I've updated all the drivers I can think of (Latest NVidia nforce drivers, latest ATI catalyst, latest mobo bios)
I've done a burn in test in SiSoft Sandra, which doesnt reveal anything out of the ordinary.
Now i'm stumped.
Any1 got any ideas where I can go from here?
Thanks in advance for any help.

List Power supply amp ratings from sticker on its side for 3.3 volt, 5 volt and 12 volt. mim is 3.3 24 amps, 5 30 amps and 12 16 amps these or mim more is better.
Download and run memtest86 http://www.memtest86.com/
Lower memory timings, if Traz 6 3 3 2.5 try 7 3 3 2.5 or 8 4 4 2.5 or lower cas to 3 if 2.5.
Check IRQ should have 22 if not reload XP with APIC enabled in bios and PNP disabled. PNP is a hold over from 95, PC2001 APIC Standard works much better with XP/2000.
Even if ram shows errors it may not be bad may just not support the Nvidia chip controlers.
Up grade Nvidia unified drivers from Nvidia web sit not the one on MSI Nvidia one newer.
http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
Do you have the lattest drivers for sound card I've had them cause lots of problems if driver not compatiable.
Flash bios to 7.6 if haven't done so yet.

K7N2 Delta Sata problem

I know this has been posted plenty of times before but the fixes for those do not seem to be working.
Im running a K7N2 Delta ILSR and have bought myself a Hitachi T7K250 250GB sata2 drive but am having real problems installing it.
I want to run my trusty Win2K
I have done the CTRL - F in bios thing and set my drive as a striped raid, after which i reset and the post states i have a functional drive.
So i boot from my Win2K CD and hit F6 when prompted to do so and insert my driver floppy, i install both the Raid and Storage drivers but when i get to the actual Windows set up it states it cant find a hard disk.
I have tried the SATA drivers from the MSI website, and NVIDIA and am wondering if the promise drivers would be more sucessful.
Does anyone else have any suggestion of what to do next?

I have created and also replied to several posts on a very similar issue. The Delta2 version will NOT work with some SATA II drives. I have found NO fix for this and I have spent a lot of hours on it.
As Stu points out, the two boards have different controller chipsets, but I would guess them to have the same problem. Also, my experience is with Maxtor brand drives. Different products, but likely the same issue.
Try a SATA I drive to test. My experience with jumpering a SATAII drive into SATAI mode resulted in total failure.

New K7N2 Delta board problems!!

I decided to upgrade my spare PC with a K7N2 Delta board since that is what I am running on my main PC.
I installed the board, installed windows XP, everythign was working great til I upgraded the Bios.
Now the system does this
Sometimes It will boot and say the HD is m issing files
Sometimes it will boot and I go to the Bios and it will hang when the main menu comes up.
Sometimes it will let me go into a sub menu int he bios and it will hang there.
Sometimes when I hit Delete to go to the bios the screen willl go all black.
Any Idea's?
I disconnected all the drives and started the computer and tried to go to bios but it did one of the above.
The bios says its the recent 8/02/04 bios.
I am guessing the bios is fubarred and I am SoL...

mglines,
Do you have the CPU to FSB Ratio set to 1:1?
Also what RAM Timings are you using?
What about the Heatsink, what thermal grease did you use when you put it on?
Take Care,
Richard

MSI K7N2 Delta heat problems?

Hi all,
The board is great, beats my old KT4 Ultra especially on the overclocking. I have had a few posts about overclocking and high temps, currently my AMD XP M 2500 is sittign on 60C idle.
I have a jet aero running at max rpm too but temp don't decrease that much. I have noticed where the chipset is (3 heatsinks) under the CPU are giving out a hell of alot of heat.
Is this normal?
How can I cool them down, There is a large square heatsink that gives out tons of heat that seems to rise onto my CPU. Is there a fan I can buy that will knock the heat down?
Regards

assuming you have the L then thats the northbridge
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threadid=31580&sid=
are you using speedfan not the msi thing as it over reads temps

I pretty much get the same error as SiliconMan (The computer that was tried to connect did not respond...)
I ended up giving up on it for the time being, just using my SMC NIC. Would be quite interested in finding out what the problem is though.
Anyone else in the same boat?
Hi,
Your problem is not the same, SiliconMan is trying to connect with a dial-up modem not LAN. Your problem sounds like it may be configuration, do a search on this post, I'm sure you will find people with onboard LAN troubles. It's hard to troubleshoot though since you didn't provide any info about your computer. Good Luck

MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR Memory problems

I'm trying to burn in a system in a 50 deg C (122 deg F) room for a minimum of 12 hours. The main system components are as follows:
Motherboard: MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR
CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2800+
Memory: 2x512 OCZ PC3200 EL
My problem is that the burn-in software continues to freeze up during the memory test. I've already contacted the software manufacturers and the software is stable. It's a problem with the way the motherboard handles the memory. I've tried putting the memory in dual channel configuration and changing the timing settings in the BIOS. The SPD settings are 2.5-3-3-7. Right now I have them at 3-4-3-8. It's a lot more stable than it was under the default settings but it still freezes up sometime after 7 hours. Unfortunately, I wasn't around when it froze so I don't know exactly how long it lasted. I can say that after 7 hours, it wasn't showing any slowdown in performance. If anyone could think of anything else I might be able to do to get the system stable, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks for the suggestions. The CPU FSB is 200, so it's already matched up there. And we have a ton of fans already. There are two in the front, 4 inside and 1 on the back. It's a custom case, 2u high. The power supply is oversized and more than adequate to provide the required power. I have four of these units running right now. Two with 2x512 sticks and two with 1x1024 sticks. For each combination, the memory clock speed for one is 166 and 200 for the other. I have been loosening up the memory timings trying to get the system stable, but it still isn't. If the power supply is good, and I'm unable to cool the system anymore due to limititions within the case, is there anything you can think of to stabilize the system. Maybe other settings in the BIOS or suggestions on how to go about getting good timings for the memory. Thanks.

MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR MB Problems, Need Help ASAP!! PLEASE

Ok I just got this motherboard (MSI K7N2 Delta) Yesterday and after getting it setup I began overclocking the Processor (an AMD Athlon XP Barton Mobile 2500+) I was at 11x 215 1.750V Perfectly. I moved to 216 it started to seem unstable so I pushed the VCORE up to 1.775 and tried 217. It couldn't boot so I dropped it back down and decided ok 208 and a 11.5 multi might get me past the 2.4 mark which I was looking for. Well when I changed the Multi. to 11.5 and said save the system just sate as the flashing y for save. I could not change it to n I had already pushed enter So i firgured great and left it alone for a few minutes, nothing so I reset it. Now it refuses to boot/post. It spinds the fans the HD's the Network port is going but I get no picture. I have cleared the CMOS using the jumper I have removed the battery and power for over an hour and I still get nothing. I am assuming this is a BIOS error but I am not sure what to do to fix it. Does anyone here kno maybe, something I have yet to try something I can do? I would hate to RMA it and have to wait on newegg. Hell the thing is a day old. So please any idea's are welcome I have this posted on the Hard Forums as well but I am hopinh this forum may be more popular with getting help as no one is helping over there. Thanks!

Hi,
Cross: Just in case you are doing something wrong there's a clear CMOS guide here, follow it to the letter (and don't forget to put the FSB jumper to SAFE beforehand - there's a note about it in the guide).
How To Clear the CMOS
Your system board or CPU maybe not be dead yet - I had a similar problem with one of my boards and I tried everything - to cut a long story short I eventually got it working!!!
Btw, If you can't boot or get into the BIOS put your other CPU in (clear BIOS again after fitting!), so that you can prove whether your motherboard is working correctly!
Good luck! I'm off ta bed!

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.

K7N2 Delta problems

Hey all..having a huge problem with my computer and have no idea what's going on.....when i try to reformat, i am getting errors with blue screen. errors are as follows: Page_Fault_In_Non_Paged_Area followed by the stop error numbers
Driver_IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal
IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equa
as well as a wait or yield error in a DPC routine
Now, when i reset the bios, it will reformat and install windows, but I never had to do this before. Also, when i am up and running, i am getting both crash and reboots, as well as lock-ups. Again, never happened before a month or so ago. Does anyone have any ideas? I don't know if this is a PSU issue, a BIOS issue( I just updated to the latest BIOS version, but after all the problems), a heat issue or what. Here are my specs:
MSI K7N2 Delta

K7N2 Delta-L - RADEON 9800SE AiW Power Up Problem

SYSTEM:
K7N2 Delta-L ( BIOS updated to w6570nms.560 - v5.6 )
AMD 2600XP
512MB Crucial RAM
Adaptec SCSI 39160
Sapphire Radeon 9800SE AiW
Antec 480W True Power PSU
+5V ( 0A - 38A )
+12V ( 0.8A - 22A )
+3.3V 0A - 30A )
PROBLEM:
I've just got the Radeon card and installed it. Everything is connected fine inc. the extra power supply for the card. Now, when I switch on the PC, it only powers up for a split second and then everything shuts off. When I disconnect the extra power supply to the radeon card the PC boots up fine, except for a message from the card saying it needs power. Some other users on this forum had a similar problem.
So is this a problem with the K7N2 Delta-L board or with my Antec PSU ? Surely 480W and the above AMP output should be enough.
Anyone got a fix for this ?
THX for any help
P.S. I've also tried this card in an older PC ( ECS K7S6A - 1800XP - Qtec 550W ) and I didn't experience the problem above.

The Antec PSU is fine, I tried different plugs and it still didn't work.
The Qtec PSU is fine as well but not as quite as the Antec.
I think the Antec PSU doesn't work because of its overloading protection. The Radeon card probably sucks quite some power when the PC is switched on.
I've spend the last two days finding an answer to my problem, and other users experienced a similar thing.
Oh well, guess I have to live with the loud Qtec for a while and in the meantime try to get an answer from Antec.
Thx

K7N2 Delta-L: Strange cold boot problem & solution

My K7N2 Delta-L has a problem cold booting when the vcore is set in the bios at 1.65v of higher. After a cold boot, you get a blank black screen. I noticed that even if you run at default speeds but set the vcore to 1.65v of higher the problem still occurs. There is no problem rebooting however.
I found the following solutions:
1. After you power up and get a blank, hit the reset button.
2. Don't unplug your PC. My PC is connected to a AVR and after I power down the PC I usually turn the AVR off. If i do this, than the computer will have a booting problem if I try to boot it up 30 minutes later or so. Now if I don't unplug it/power off the AVR than everything is fine.
I don't understand why it acts the way it does though.
Does anyone know of any other solutions?

Have you cleared the cmos. If you do be sure you have the power turned off don't move the cmos jumper with the power on.
I found that turning off power at power supply and unpluging, than turning on the computer the fans will spin just a little this drains all the power. Clear cmos 2-3 than return to
1-2 position.
Than plug the power back in and turn it back on, than try the computer again.

K7N2 Delta ILSR Strange network problems

K7N2 Delta ILSR
2500+ AMD Barton
Radeon 9600 PRO
Windows XP
Hi there,
My network was working fine yesterday but now whenever I plug a cable into the onboard network card, my computer starts having these strange flucuations...Every few seconds the CPU usage jumps from 0% to about 50% which causes the system to freeze for a second, making it a real pain to do anything.
Does anyone have any idea whats causing this?
Thanks,
Shim

Further, I'd like to buy another 512 M stick and honestly it seems more sensible to me to mount two equal sticks. And I feel somewhat stuck...
a memory can be incompatible but still work.
alot of people buy any memory they can and throw in and it may work.
but it can start crashing after installing some program or updating bios or drivers.
thats the reason i posted the memtest program.
worry about a crash....no reason for that as you self said memtest reported no errors prime95 no errors and doom3 worked good.
kingston uses many different chips on their memory and its those chips that is the problem.
one guy found out that on the specific memory he bought kingston used 3 different chips on.
only 1 of them worked good on k7n2.
so a 33% chans of success in getting a good module is considered bad.
so write down the numbers on the chips and take it with you to the store and compare it to the memories they got.
