K7n2 delti Ilsr Bios update question

Well bios updates fix these ram issues? I have Kingston hyperx 3500, was on the ok list for ram, dont thank it is now.  ;(
MICRO-STAR k7n2Delti ILSR latest bios and drivers
AMD 2800+barton
Fx5900 Gainward videocard
2 512 sticks of Kingston hyperX 3500 Inslot 2&3 at 2222
antec pp400watt Ps

Yes, I did mean the CPU.  Corrected it now .......
Thanks, I've done that and it's now showing 1800.  Much easier than updating the BIOS.
My temperatures have gone up a bit, though.  CPU is now 47C (was 44C) and system is 37C (was 35C) in PCAlert4, and I'm only on the net and playing mp3s, so it's not exactly hard load!!.  Is this OK?  I really worry about overheating since my old mobo was unstable at lower system temps than this.

  • MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR Bios v.7.6 ??When??

    Hello,
    I just asked myself when MSI is going to publish a new Bios Update above the 7.6 for the K7N2 Delta ILSR mainboard !!! I think it's time for a new Bios update, because of the few problems with this mainboard !!!!

    He has confirmed the ports are present on the board....
    I have seen this in earlier Nf2 Pre Delta boards where it was there but if you had disabled it, and then flashed the BIOS, it would dissapear. The only way to get it back was to flash to an earlier version, make sure it is enabled, then you can flash to the latest.
    That is why I always clear the CMOS when starting a new build. You may have a board that may have been fiddled with, believe it or not, it does happen from time to time.
    Have you tried the Default BIOS Settings Option in the BIOS? Perhaps you loaded the Performance option and that is why it is hiding?
    this worked, thx a lot

  • [nForce] MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR; bios, neither windows recognize IEEE1394

    Hello,
    Since 2 years I have used a msi motherboard. Now since I dont have IEEE1394 of an external card anymore (Audigiy), i tried to connect my digital camera with the IEEE1394 to the motherboard. Rebooted my pc, windows doesnt recognize new hardware. i'm going to look in the bios, and see that my bios (bios 7.8) is different from the one explained in the manual (see pic). I tried to downgrade my bios to 7.2, to know if it is the 7.8 version that has the problem. but it was the same, no option for IEEE1394.
    Normally have you this:
    But I dont see this option for the IEEE1394 in my bios....
    Thx in advance for helping me

  • K7N2 Delta ILSR SATA Performance Questions

    hello
    does anyone know if there are drivers that will increase performance?  i just got a WD Raptor and ran a benchmark and it runs at 47 MB/s.  shouldnt i be able to get almost 150 MB/s ?
    any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    as i said no drive exists that moves data that fast
    they will all shift the 2 or 8 mb they have cached at the full bus speed
    after that they get no were near it
    there is nothing wrong with that result
    but sandras not a good benchmark for drives

  • MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR - RAID BIOS Option ???

    hi ho,
    i have my 2 storage devices pluged into the promise 376 onboard controller. they are not connected as a real raid (not mirror nor real stripe). my OS is win2k on the first sata device and everything was fine for a long time.
    but now when my system boots, it detects the ide drives and then i see the irq board.
    right after that the system stops and tells me 'disk boot failure'. so i don`t get the chance to configure my raidcontroller or my sata devices.
    it is as the controller is deactivated. i remember a bios version where you could activate and deactivate the sata controller. but in my bios (right now it is v7.8) there is no such option.
    i have tested so far:
    - reset cmos
    - flash bios v7.5 to 7.8
    - disconnected sata drives
    anyone with similar problems or any suggestion?

    watch the bottom of the screen after pressing Enter on the "Welcome to Setup" screen. There will be some moments of files being loaded, and then you should see a message appear which says "Press F6 if you need to install a 3rd party SCSI or RAID driver". This message will only stay on the screen for a couple of seconds, so press F6 as soon as you see it appear. After this is done, you will see other messages appear, and it will act as though nothing is happening, but eventually a screen will appear which will allow you to install the drivers for the sata controller.
    specify a device press S, select "win 2000 promise fasttrak 376 controller" it will read floppy and load, dot not remove floppy yet, continue win2000 install it may nead to access floppy to finish installing raid driver, did you do it like this.
    try making some floppy boot disks and boot to floppy instead of cd.
    http://freepctech.com/pc/002/files010.shtml
    when you say there not listed, where did you see this? they wont be listed, windows will search for fasttrak controller so it will see sata's conected to it with out you knowing, so long as you load the controller from floppy that came with mobo as above.

  • K7N2 Delta-ILSR BSOD

    Hi
    MSI Nforce K7N2 Delta-ILSR
    Bios V1016
    Antec True380SPGB True Power 380w
    AMD Athlon XP2800+
    2x512mb Crucial DDR
    1xSATA HDD
    Abit Siluro GF4 Ti4200
    I've installed 1 SATA onto the onboard Raid controller, but I keep getting BSOD when either playing a game or watching avi's.  The 0x00000000 message is disappearing too quickly to right down but is saying windows was shut down to prevent damage to the hardware.
    Will the K7N2 Delta-ILSR Promise controller work with just one SATA hdd connected, I know that the silicon image controller on my Asus A7N8X-E will support just one SATA connected but will the promise chipset.
    I've updated all the drivers but the dreaded BSOD keeps happening.
    If it won't it not's a major problem as I do have a PCI sata controller card I can install.
    Or are there any issues with the above graphics card and the MSI mobo?
    Thanks for any help.

    Yep I've created a array with the single SATA and got Windows installed.
    I've also changed the memory settings so they are now 1:1 with the FSB.
    I've also altered the advance settings so I'll be able to write down the full 0X00000000 string.
    Just set net access up via my PC and got this error report from M$

    i have tried anything i red in this forum (clear cmos... safe mode jumper...strip all parts...)
    all i get is : 
    blank black display, no beeps and keyboard lights flashes over and over (when connected to a KVM hub), when conected directly to keboard the lights flashes only once but stil black display and no beeps (i hear on speake,when powering up PSU, a silent short noise, no beep).

    cpu: AMD xp 3200+ 400fsb.
    i did succed to go into bios only once, after lots of resets and shutdowns and bios clear (after ouers)
    i choosed in the bios: load bios defaults, and thats it. i hoped it starts up but nothing.
    i did all testing i know (checked all pins, cables, clear cmos...all, you name it)
    all parts are brand new (except motherbord. it's seconds hand from eBay. i've bean talled that it works fine)
    i also e-mailed MSI support that question. (2 days ago. no answer yet)
    oh...and i have a pci POST diagnostic card and its 7seg display don't shows any numbers, only when once i succed to get into bios. i don't have the msi original D-Breket addon diag.

  • Questions about K7N2 Delta-ILSR

     I am planning to buy a K7N2 Delta-ILSR  motherboard, so I have a few questions  about it.
     Firstly, I would like to know which the max FSB the motherboard can handle is. )
     Secondly, which are the available multiplier numbers?
     Furthermore, i would like to know if the K7N2 Delta-ILSR version has standard the MCP2-T chip. In advance I would like to know, if it supports the SoundstormTM technology
     Thanks

    madsteeve1,
    1) I have seen people running over 425Mhz.
    2) Download the manual and check the BIOS Revisions for that answer
    3) The -ILSR Boards have Soundstorm.
    Take Care,
    Richard

    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,

You know... everything seems ok and then, suddenly, a nasty surprise. Which is the problem with kingston and k7n2 series? 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.

  • 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...
