  • K7N2G-ILSR Wont boot

    Got a big problem guys build my comp today and when I turn on power the fans spin but my monitor shows nothing  Just check your signal.  I think everything is in where it should be. The lights on the back show two red on top and two green on bottom, not sure if that helps any.  Please help!

      I had a boot problem too using WD600 , cut the first and second pin, works great 8o . Thanx - It was driving me crazy!  :D

    The 'solution' that I found on the Western Digital Forums was modify the IDE cable by cutting PIN 1 (on a 40-Pin Ribbon Cable) or PINS 1 & 2 (on an 80-Pin Ribbon Cable).  PIN 1 is normally the wire with the red stripe.  If your WD is on the end plug, make the cut between the two IDE device plugs so that it doesn't affect the second device.  Also, to make sure the cut is complete, cut it twice and remove the gap.
    From what I understand, this doesn't affect the integrity of the data nor does it have any performance penalties.  If you'd rather not cut the cable yourself, WD may ship you a modified cable free of charge.  You'd need to visit their forums/website for more information.
    If you've got a spare cable to test with, give it a shot.  Once I snipped pins 1&2, my K7N2G-ILSR has been running beautifully!  

  • K7N2G-ILSR MS-6570 Restart Problems!

    K7N2G-ILSR MS-6570 Restart Problems!
    Has anybody else had a problem like this . . .
    Ive got this problem with two machines now!!!!
    Say for example you boot your machine and go into the bios to change whatever. Then save and exit. It should reboot and carry on to go into windows (or whatever). BUT . . . both of my machines restart and then just sit there and give a long beep which then repeats.
    If I turn the machine off completely then back on it starts up ok with any changes to the bios kept from last time.
    Can anybody help?!?!??!  ;(
    I have updated to the latest bios (which is 7.2)

    I now have the MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR (601-6570-030).;
    On the box:- NVIDIA nForce 2 Ultra 400 Chipset Based.
    K7,nFORCE2 Ultra400/SPP,MCP2-T,FSB400,D-Bracket2,Round cable,2*SATA&power cables,1394 cable,S-Bracket,WinDVD4.
    I have 2x256 PC3200 Corsair DDR and a XP2800 Barton, tried and tested at 240fsb(237fsb Totally stable), And I get the same thing happening to me..Also this board and the last one will NOT do the claimed 400fsb..
    And dont say it's the ram because it's not, the ram and CPU are fine.... It's the Motherboard that is incompatable with the Ram & CPU
    why because my Ram is Corsair(the name speaks for itself) and works in every system to date!.. The CPU is AMD also works in every system to date!
    Soon as i get around 193+(fsb) it starts to do the same thing wont reboot, and does the beep thing! at 200x7 200x7.5 200x8 200x8.5 200x9 200x9.5 200x10 200x10.5 200x11 200x11.5= NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING but BEEP ......BEEP.......BEEP.
    I also bought a brand new Antec TRUEPower550Watt with front voltage control (£100+) and that still does,nt do it
    this is my second board, and im totaly fed up with there crap board. I spent good money for this TOP Class Ram and dont expect to be told the Rams wrong when it works in every other system i have had my hands on!!!!!!!
    MY advice is send it back and get an other and if thats no use send it back again and get a refund and buy an ABIT NF7-S.. with exactly the same components i get a fsb of anything(100) upto 240fsb abit..
    SIG is old board

  • K7N2G-ILSR is DEAD after OC!!??!! PLEASE HELP!!

    Ok,
      I got my new K7N2G-ILSR on Tuesday and swapped it in my setup, replacing my beloved K7T266 Pro2 RU. Ive got an XP2100+ and 2X Corsair XMS2400 sticks in cual channel and a 550watt Antec PS. Install of WinXP and all software went smooth and ultra fast. Next I put in all my cards and dealt with IRQ and resource conflicts for a day before going with onboard LAN which is much more responsive than the 3COM card that I took out. I had my system running perfectly and decided Thursday morning to try a little overclocking.
     Since the corsair XMS 2400 is guaranteed to run @ 300Mhz, i set the FSB to 150 and the multiplyer to 11.5, which would give me a 1725, and since the 2100+ is a 1733Mhz chip so its not a steep overclock, just some FSB tweaking. I then set the CPU Vcore to 1.75 and the VDDR to 1.7 and rebooted. Since then I have not been able to get the board to post. The DLED bracket shows the error as being damaged or improperly installed CPU. I tried resetting the BIOS jumper, the fail safe 100Mhz jumper and even took out the battery for an hour, with the PS connector off of the MB and it STILL wont POST. Thinking I may have fried the CPU (which I ran at these same settings on my K7T266 Pro2 RU) I swapped in my 1600+ and got the same results. Ive retested both processors on my K7T266 Pro2 RU machine and they run perfect.
     Is there something im missing??? Ive got 3 MSI motherboards in my systems and this is the first time ive had any problem with them (except the dropping USB with the K7t266 ProR on an OC) Ive followed the directions on resetting the J10 jumper to safe mode and even taken off the J11 100Mhz CPU jumper but nothing will get this board to post. Could it actually be dead?? Please help!! Im hosting a small LAN party at my place saturday night and would hate to have to game all night without my main system.  ;(  I AM DESPARATE!!!!!

    backwoodz,
    No problem, sorry if i sounded a bit snippy, thats what 4 hours of sleep does when your troubleshooting your fancy new Mobo all night. Not to mention getting ribbed by a friend who continually spouts out "should have bought an ASUS, and get a Pentium". I cant hammer it into that putz's head that his mighty P4 gets smoked by my 2 year old K7T266 ProR and 1600+ with corsair valueram. 8o
    My system will completley power on, all fans spin up, along with hard drives and CDROMS and the DLED just gives me the processor initialization error, but it wont seek the floppy. ;(
    Anyways, I never used to do the online purchasing either, theres several good walk in vendors in my area, but all have some special charge for walk in or using a creditcard etc etc.  X(
    I cant feel to bad though, even though 4 of my friends are playing UT2K3 on my personal server right now while im trying to free space on a packed 20GB hard drive to install UT2003 on my backup system. This is only the second part that ive fragged, and ive done some boneheaded things in the past (sleep deprivation!).
    Thanks for the help everyone! Im on my way to RMA land!!

  • K7n2g-ilsr IGP graphics interference

    When using the IGP, I see moving diagonal lines on my desktop.
    I don't think it's a memory compatibility issue since I don't experience any reboots, lock-ups, crashes, etc. I suspect it's the PSU but I need a second opinion on this.
    I already experimented with the bios settings with no luck, even on default.
    Here's my specs:
    XP 1,700+
    MSI K7n2g-ilsr
    2 pcs. twinmos 512 ddr400 (twinmos chips)
    Enermax 330 watts (+3.3v=30A, +5v=32A, +12v=12A, combined +3.3v and +5v= 160W)
    I know that the 12v rail is too low, but like I said, I don't experience reboots and everything, just the annoying interference.
    I haven't got this problem whenever I use a separate agp card (geforce2mx)

    Your combined is low as well...should be more like 200W to get enuff power to this setup...
    Cheers!! 8)

  • K7N2G-ILSR (MS6570G) Promise RAID Driver trouble with 1TB SATA-II HDD XP SP2

    Hi, I'm having trouble getting XP to recognise my new HDD.
    I am using a MSI K7N2G-ILSR. I already have a 40GB IDE drive I use for the OS and apps, and an 80GB drive I use for storage. I recently bought a new 1TB Samsung SATA-II drive to increase the storage.
    To begin with I simply plugged it in (port on the mobo marked SER1) and hoped XP would auto detect it. No such luck, so I used a USB to SATA convertor to connect the drive, format it, and check it worked properly. All OK, but still no result from windows when I go to the disk management settings.
    So I got out the mobo manual and followed the instructions for installing the Promise 376 SATA RAID drivers. I setup the array in fastbuild (auto setup to a single stripe 1+0 array) and it shows the drive as present and functioning. I put in the XP CD and F6'd the SCSI drivers on as directed by various google searches. That went fine but there is still no detection in XP.
    The drive came with jumper pins but no jumpers. I am slightly confused as I have read the jumpers can be used to force 150 speed from the drive, but also that SATA-II is 100% backwards compatible and doesn't need jumpers whether it's host is SATA or SATA-II.
    I have read through various threads in this forum and have not been able to find a solution. The drive works fine, the RAID bios seems to work fine, but I can't achieve a detection by XP (with SP2).
    Hope somebody can help me master this! If I've forgotten any details just ask.

    Cool, thanks. It wouldn't let me install the exe, was I supposed to change to extension to .inf? Anyway, it did let me install the Promise driver from the floppy, and that now shows properly in the device manager.
    I will reboot and report back.
    "Cool, thanks. It wouldn't let me install the exe, was I supposed to change to extension to .inf?"
    No, just run it 1st. Its self extract archive which will expand the drivers to desired location.
    "Anyway, it did let me install the Promise driver from the floppy, and that now shows properly in the device manager."
    Yes, that's the same drivers.

  • K7N2G-ILSR need serious help!!

    OK, Ive had my K7N2G-ILSR running perfect for nearly a year. It came out of my gaming rig to do duty in my server a few months ago and always ran perfect. 6 weeks ago, I started changing my configuration, I went from a Gainward FX5900 NU to a Radeon 9800 Pro to an MSI FX5900Ultra, and added a Winfast TV2000XP expert, and swapped in a 2800+. It seems as if after I swapped in the 2800+ the problems began. Constant BSOD under use and Memtest86 would lock, never give me errors, just locked. I RMAd the board and got my replacement this weekend. I installed it and almost the exact same problems. In the interim, while the K7N2G was away at RMA camp, I picked up a KT6 Delta LSR and used it in its stead. Same processor, PSU, DDR, HSF, Video card, Tunercard, case and cables. It ran absolutley flawless. I was watching TV on the tuner while browing the web and unRARing a 4.5GB movie file without the slightest hint of trouble.
    Now, With the replacment K7N2G in, some days I can Memtest86 for 2 hours without a problem, and sometimes it will not go past the "moving 64K block" section. There is no rhyme or reason as to when it will or wont lock. I got into my original windowsXP installation, and tried to run Prime95. Error, BSOD and another BSOD. Then one day, it ran for 1-1/2hours Prime95 perfect. ?!?!? I have tried the following, and have not found a stable setup yet. I dotn want to go back to the KT6 LSR, because I need my Soundstorm and I like dual channel Nforce. Heres everything I have tried.
    Downclocked to 133FSB - stable sometimes.
    Switched to Single Channel and relaxed timings - no difference.
    Removed video card and tuner card - no difference.
    Ran single stick of DDR - no difference.
    Tested HDD twice - no errors.
    Tested HDD on KT6 Delta LSR - ran PERFECT.
    Tested DDR on NF7-S and KT6 Delta LSR - ran PERFECT.
    Tested 2800+ on same 2 boards - ran PERFECT.
    Tested FX5900U on same 2 boards - ran PERFECT.
    Disabled FW and AGP8X- no difference.
    Tried Onboard Vid - no difference.
    Tried MSI FX5200 64MB - no difference.
    Upped core and DDR voltage - no difference.
    BIOS Safe defaults - no difference.
    Cleared CMOS and ran at defaults - no difference.
    Checked and rechecked mounting (though the first ran perfect in same case for 8 months)
    The only thing left would be the PSU, but it seems hightly unlikely that it would be the culprit, it is only 6 months old. it is a 430W Thermaltake Silent Purepower. I built a system for a friend, nearly identical except his has an 80GB HDD and 9600XT. I recently swapped a 3 year old PP303X Antec 300Watt PSU without P4 connector into his because his cheap Raidmax 400 blew out, and the Antec runs his system rock solid. The temps in my system are right on, 45C CPU Loaded, 32C Case loaded. CPU is cooled by a Vantec Aeroflow w TMD. What the hell is going on here? My level of expertise is high. this is the first system ihave not been able to troubleshoot. I dont want to get stuck with an Nforce2 board sitting on my shelf in its box, and I cant afford to replace it. HELP!!!!

    Basically yes, I took everything apart when i installed the KT6 Delta, and when I got my K7N2G back from RMA, I cemoved everything, cleaned the case and reinstalled it all.
    When the K7N2G was running rock solid, I was running a 2500+ barton. When I swapped my 2600+ in, after I had the instability with the 2800+, the system seemed more stable, but still had trouble. I wish I had my 2500+ back to test it out, but its long gone. I am using the latest BIOS, 1.8 or 1.9, I forget which, and the one I got back from RMA has the latest BIOS on it as well.
    I am really beginning to beleive that my PSU is flaky, and I'm waiting for a friend to borrow me his 350W Antec so I can test the PSU theory. Im still open to suggestions!!

  • Confused with K7N2G-ILSR DLED reading

    I just put together a new system using the K7N2G-ILSR and t isnt booting. I am using the baord with an Antec 300W power supply, AthlonXP 2700+ and 512 MB of crucial DDR PC2100. witht he processor in it goes through the first DLED which is the top two LEDs red and the bottom two green and then changes to the top left LED green and the other three LEDs not lighting up at all. After taking the processor out it would hang at the first LED cycle which is top two red and bottom two green and in the bok it means that the processor is not installed proerly or damaged. The next pattern it would cycle to is top left green and the rest red which is early chipset initialization. Since it is hanging with just the top left light green and the others not lighting at all does that mean there is a problem with the chipset or a problem with the processor?
     

    I like to contribute a little. I bought a mother board K7N2G-ILSR upgraded my PC. First, I booted up with Windows 98SE most of hardware is working include on-board network port which connected with RoadRunner cable modem except not USB 2.0. I have decided to upgrade to Windows XP SP1. My first try of upgrading to  Windows XP looks okay for most hardware, then I found out that network is not working. After several investigation, I see no MAC address show on network driver property. I reinstall (restore from backup) Windows 98SE then network is worked fine. I memo the MAC address. Again, upgraded to Windows XP SP1, enter the MAC address into NVIDIA nForce MCP Networking Controler's property "NetWork Address". After rebooted the Windows XP the on-board network port is working perfect. This must be glich in nForce2 driver.

  • [nForce] K7N2G-ILSR network connection problems

    My brother's system is as follows:
    AthlonXP 2000+
    MSI K7N2G-ILSR
    2x256 MB Crucial PC2100
    Emermax Powersupply
    Generic DVD ROM
    LG DVD burner
    MSI TV @nywhere
    WinXP Home SP2
    His computer has been working more or less perfectly, although the TV card occasionally causes some trouble.  Today, he was no longer able to get on the internet.  From both the Network connections and Device Manager screens, his LAN interface is gone.  Only the 1394 interface shows up. 
    So far, I did a system restore to last week, which had no effect.  I made sure the BIOS hadn't disabled it for some reason, too, but that isn't the problem.  I manually installed the network adapter, and it said that the device could not start, error code 10.  The network adapter will not work in Safe Mode with Networking, either.  I tried the MS Knowledge base article regarding missing LAN icons, but that article was for situations in which the icons were gone yet everything still functioned, so it didn't really apply.  Reinstalling drivers had no effect.  I can ping localhost, but that could just be because the 1394 connection can act as an internet connection.
    Any ideas?  I've not done a repair of Windows on the machine, but I'm not sure that would help.  I do have an extra network interface pci card I could put in if it is simply a problem of his onboard connection having died.  If I do this, is there a particular PCI slot that I should preferably use to avoid IRQ conflicts?

    As far as I know drivers can be installed in SafeMode, but your LAN wont work till in normal.
    A repair install is not a bad idea, as Windows is very fond of its own drivers.
    LAN and sound problems are often early signs of a PSU near the end. You wouldn't know the specs of the Enermax? I guess it is alright, but you never know.
    As the TV-card is problematic, try that one in another slot. Nowadays devices happily share IRQs without problems, but some older devices including older mobos (which is not the case here) were very conservative. ...I'll have to look in my drawer, wait a sec, please. - -  --
    "The use and sharing of IRQs aren't mentioned in my MSI manual, (due to the APIC function I think), so I had to go to some ASUS manuals. As standards are standards, I believe things can't be to different. If someone has any addings or suggestions please come forward, so I can adjust the table.
    *Please note that this is generally speaking and mainly for ASUS boards a few years old!
    **Please note that you should not have any sharing with the IDE controller or similar!
    ***Please note that it is a good thing to have expansion PCI sound cards in slot 3!
    ****Please note that surprisingly enough it looks like PCI slot 2 would be free for any device, but AGP cards get hot and bigger so it is not a great idea.
    IRQ sharing table
    PCI 1 shares with PCI slot 5
    2 shares with AGP and PCI slot 6, or sometimes with onboard IDE
    3 shares not, or sometimes with onboard audio/modem

    5 shares PCI slot 1

  • K7N2G-ILSR - Undocumented Jumper - What the heck is this?

    Hi all;
    First time post here and, naturally, I have a problem.  But then, everybody here seems to have some sort of problem or they wouldn't be here to begin with . . . RIGHT?
    Anyway, I picked up this nice looking K7N2G-ILSR board over on sleazeBay a few months back and am just now getting around to trying to get it to run.
    The board makes it through POST just fine and actually gets all the way through the BIOS setup (quite unlike a few other MSI boards that I've seen before) with the only hang-up being the typical initial "No FastTrak controller installed" message.
    With a clean (NTFS formatted and known "good") Western Digital 160GB HDD as the master (and only) drive on IDE1 and a (known "good") Pioneer DVD drive as the master (and only) drive, on IDE2, the board then comes back with the "No OS Found" message (. . . . duuuhhhhh . . . . ) and requests an OS Set-Up disk to be inserted.
    Being an agreeable sort of guy, I immediately plop in my "genuine" WIN_XP_Pro_SP2 CD and the board starts to load Windows. Windows makes it all the way through the "Checking Computer Configuration" phase and "almost" makes it through the "Loading Temporary Files" phase of the initial set-up process. BUT . . . at some point during the "Loading Temporary Files" phase, it fails. I've gone through this eight dozen times over the past week and the 'puter has never made it past this point.
    Sometimes the board will just spontaneously reboot, either just shutting down or taking me back to the original BIOS screen, and sometimes it comes up with a BSOD and a stop error, which is different everytime. I've seen 0x08, 0x0A, 0x08e, "IRQL1_not_less_than_or_equal_to", and probably a few more that I didn't even bother to write down. Most times, it's just a BSOD with no "message" at all.
    I've been through this entire process with four different AMD Athlon XP CPU's (two 2,500+ Bartons, a 2,600+ Tbred, and a 2,800+ Barton), with five different sticks of 512MB ram (both PC2700 and PC3200 and all from different manufacturers) installed in each of the three DIMM slots on the board. 
    Never having taken a "Statistics and Probabilities" course, I can't even begin to tell you how many possible combinations of these elements that I've tried, but I do know, it's been a bunch. All to no avail.
    Anyway, I was about ready to throw the whole thing in the dumpster (or at least put it back up for sale on sleazeBay) when it occurred to me that "maybe you should read the manual".
    I had already downloaded the manual from MSI's site, but had never actually taken the time to study it. Who needs a durned manual anyway . . . RIGHT . . . ?
    So . . . long story short . . . I actually studied the darn thing. I not only studied the manual, I also studied "the board" at the same time and found what appears to be an undocumented jumper which is the sole reason for this entire post.
    On this particular board, right behind the "JFP2" header and directly underneath the "JDLED" header is a two-pin jumper labeled "JGS1" (yellow arrow in the pic below) that I can find no documentation on nor even any reference to.
    Anybody have a clue as to what this jumper does or why I can't get this board to make it beyond the "Loading Temporary Files" phase of the Windows installation?
    Just curious . . . Doug

    Okay . . . My System Specs (currently):
    The items sub-listed, as numbers 1), 2), 3) etc., are all different pieces of hardware that have been tried one-at-a-time in various combinations. Each of the RAM sticks was tried, one-at-a-time, in each of the three available DIMM slots.

    OS:    Windows XPPro/SP2
    With the clean/formatted WD1600 drive the XPPro/SP2 install CD starts to load Windows, makes it through the "Checking Computer Configuration" phase and starts the "Loading Temporary Files" phase. It always fails, at some "varying" point during the "Loading Temporary Files" phase, either with a spontaneous reboot or with a BSOD. The BSOD message is usually 0x07 or 0x08, but I've also seen 0x0A, 0x07e, 0x08e, "pci_sys", and "IRQL1_not_less_than_or_equal".
    I don't know anything about Linux or the Linux Live CD, but I do have a recent copy of the UBCD4Win (Ultimate Boot CD for Windows) and with the clean WD1600 HDD in place, the UBCD disk will boot (very slowly) and run. But when I attempt to install the OS from it, it fails in the same manner as the original XPPro/SP2 install CD.
    With the 80GB WD800 drive (pre-loaded w/ a cloned good copy of XPPro/SP2), the initial WindowsXP splash screen comes up but then fails to load with one of the same BSOD messages as the clean/formatted drive. The UBCD4Win disk fails to even load on this drive ending with the same BSOD screens.
    I've tried the "fail-safe" 100MHz FSB setting, disabled all cacheing and shadowing in the BIOS, cleared the CMOS dozens of times, changed the battery, re-flashed the BIOS with the latest BIOS download from the MSI site (even though it was the same BIOS version that was already installed), and tried just about everything else that I can think of.
    Even though I have no SATA/RAID drives installed, I did try the "Hit F6 key" option to install the SATA/RAID drivers and they seemed to install fine, but, of course, it made no difference.
    I do have the JDLED1 "D-Bracket" and it ends up with all four green LED's lit indicating that the OS should be booting and I do get a single short "beep" as the BIOS kicks-in.
    But . . . still nothing.   
    I really appreciate all of you guys here trying to help out. I've been putting systems together for twenty years and have never had one give me this much grief. I'm about at my wits-end with it.   
    All good . . . Doug

  • K7n2G-ILSR, Mouse problems

      I have been having a lot of issues with my mouse since I got my K7N2G-ILSR MOBO. If I use the PS/2 connection; if I have to reboot after installing a program or something the mouse no longer works and I have to reboot again and it works fine. That is the task everytime I have to reboot.
      I thought maybe there was a grounding problem with my mose connector or my PS/2 connection on my MOBO, so I went out and purchased a IBM optical mouse. Problems still persist although they are different ones now. The IBM mouse is USB, if I connect it to any of the USB connections its almost like it doesn't have enough power to run my mouse. The mouse's scroll button lights up blue and when I plug it into any of the USB ports I can see it flash a couple of times, but the light is very dim and then it just goes out and my mouse doesn't work at all. Tried doing the restart process and nothing happens at all. I tried all 4 USB inputs on the MOBO itself and even installed the USB 2 S-Bracket that came with it and the same problem happens in each one.
      I just wonder if I should try another mouse like an intellimouse or are my connections on my MOBO just bad or something.
      Any help would be very appreciated.
         Thank you all,

      The only problem with this theory is that it did the same thing in my friends case that has an Antec True Power 550 Watt Psu.
      Any more help would be appreciated, Thank you.

    The problem is with the board, I've had 2 of these boards, and both of them had a problem with the mouse.
    If you get a keyboard and mouse make sure they are both USB, or BOTH PS/2. If you choose the PS/2 option then make sure the keyboard, and mouse don't have any extra features.
    It's odd, some keyboards and mice work fine, while others mess the whole computer up.
    MSI NEEDS TO FIX THIS!!!

  • ...on-board NIC issues with K7N2G-ILSR

    After reading several posts on this issue, it sounds as if a ton of people are having problems with their K7N2G-ILSR on-board NIC.  My problem is pretty strange...  When i'm on the internet (WinXP Pro, cable modem/Linksys BEFSX41 firewall router), my NIC works fairly well.. maybe 90% of time.  I can also 'connect' to other machines on my LAN just fine.  However, if i attempt to transfer data between my K7N2G-ILSR and another PC, the LAN conenction icon flashes back and forth between 'connected' and 'disconnected.'  I also have this problem when i try to download anything...  It's driving me friggin crazy!!
    I haven't tried the MAC address solution (copying the NIC MAC address into the BIOS).  Before i give that a shot, does anyone have any updated news regarding this issue?
    Thanks for the help...  Mike

    I like to contribute a little. I bought a mother board K7N2G-ILSR upgraded my PC. First, I booted up with Windows 98SE most of hardware is working include on-board network port which connected with RoadRunner cable modem except not USB 2.0. I have decided to upgrade to Windows XP SP1. My first try of upgrading to  Windows XP looks okay for most hardware, then I found out that network is not working. After several investigation, I see no MAC address show on network driver property. I reinstall (restore from backup) Windows 98SE then network is worked fine. I memo the MAC address. Again, upgraded to Windows XP SP1, enter the MAC address into NVIDIA nForce MCP Networking Controler's property "NetWork Address". After rebooted the Windows XP the on-board network port is working perfect. This must be glich in nForce2 driver.
