K7T266 PRO2-RU stability problems

In the last few months I've been experiencing general stability issues with my K7T266 PRO2-RU. In attempts to try and resolve these issues I've flashed the BIOS, updated drivers, reinstalled Windows numerous times, checked for leaking capacitors and reduced the machine to nothing more than the essential hardware (video card, memory, processor).
In troubleshooting I've discovered very little, except that none of these things have been very successful and some odd things that are outlined below.
1. The machine still randomly reboots, and programs crash inexplicably without error.
2. WindowsXP invariably hangs during installation to the RAID controller (RAID 0). I've tried various driver versions but all reproduce a similar result. I suspected there may be a problem with the drives, but that doesn't appear to be the case as it does this regardless of the drives used - 2 Maxtor DiamondMax Plus D740X'(s). It also does this when using 2 Western Digital WD300BB'(s) and new cables, so I know it is NOT my drives. Windows will install to one drive but is as previously stated - unstable.
3. I've tested the machine using another video card, in addition to running the video card and the memory in my other box, of which both cards are good and run rock solid under stress testing.
Any ideas or suggestions are welcome.
Here's the config:
MSI K7T266 PRO2-RU (Bios Rev. 3.7)
Athlon 1800+ (Not OC'd)
256MB Corsair XMS PC2400 (x2)
Asus GeForce 6800
Maxtor DiamondMax Plus D740X (x2)
Creative SB Audigy Platinum
3Com 3C905B NIC
Enermax EG-465P VE
Thanks...

Thanks for the suggestion,
While I was waiting to see if anyone would quickly reply I read through previous posts to the forum and found a link to memtest86. I've already tested one module to isolate bank 0 as known good and it passed. 2nd attempt I put both modules in, 1 in bank 0 and the other in bank 2. I began receiving errors only after 5 min. I never suspected this would be the problem as I tested the memory in another machine and previously with an obviously inferior memory test app and it passed. No big deal though, at least now I've discovered the problem.
I'm now doing additional testing to the suspect module.
(Errors in Bank 2 - Next trying it in Bank 0 which I know worked, just to rule out a possibly defective bank)
Update:
Errors all over the place in Bank 0,1, and 2 - Looks like the module took the dirt nap. Time to use that lifetime warranty.
Thanks again.

K7T266 Pro2 RU: Boot problem, wrong CMOS setting

Hi All,
I have had the Pro2 RU MB for a year now with very few problems. Over Christmas I was cleaning up my computer and was going to do a format :C and reload windows. When I went to start the computer after cleaning it up (remove all cards, clean up dust) I got 4 red leds on d-led. Tried everything (different memory, reset bios, unplug everything except video, ect) always 4 reds. Bought a duron 1.3 GHz put it in started the computer it start to post, went through fastrack raid screen and then I got "CMOS settings wrong" "press F1 to setup", "F2 load defaults" ...... screen I go F1 into setup make ajustments and everytime I save and I get 4 red leds on reboot. If I go F2 load defaults and continue it will try and boot, my hard drives are in a raid 0 array and it will check floppy, ide 0, cdrom by default so it can't boot. If I reboot at this point it will go 4 red leds. I can't flash the bios which is ver 3.2 because the bios protection is enabled and I can't change any settings. I could use some help this one has my stumped.
I have tried 3 different power supplies, and that is not the problem.

I have reset the cmos with pc unplugged...yes.
I have read the FAQ at this site, I have used the search feature at this forum I have googled my problem searched a few other sites and I am stuck. I have been building computers and troubleshooting problems for 3 years now. If it was a new board I would RMA it at my wholesaler.
It seems like there is a problem with the cmos chip because it will not accept any changes to the settings. As soon as you save the changes in the cmos the computer reboots and I get 4 red leds in d-led.

K7T266 PRO2-RU and Problem with a FEW DISPLAY ADAPTERS ...

Hello ,
I was using my mainboard with 32 MB Creative Riva TNT2 Ultra until creative's fan was damaged . I tried 16 Creative TNT2 m64 display adapter of a friend of me , but it didn't work with K7T266 PRO2-RU. Many sounds are coming from mainboard while D-LED shows Testing RTC (or boot attemp, I'm not sure about that) (Same symptoms with "no graphic adapter" - I tried again after unplugged the display adapter - )
At the beginning I was thinking that the 16 MB creative graph adap. was broken . So , today I bought a new graphic adapter 128 MB of Creative 3d Blaster5 Radeon 9200SE . When I plugged it into mainboard , I saw the same problems with 16 MB Creative TNT2 m64 . After that , I found another 32 MB Creative TNT2 Ultra from my friend and it worked with my mainboard FINE .
- I tried all of the old bioses of MSI K7T266 PRO2-RU
- I tried to start the computer with no any other devices (such as HDD , sound card , tv card etc. ) . Only display adapter was plugged in the mainboard , but it didn't work . System hanged up everytime I tried .
- I made some bios adjustments which are suggested at this forum ....
But none of these worked .... ?(
What is the problem ? Why only 32 MB creative TNT2 Ultra is working with my mainboard , but 16 MB Creative TNT2 M64 and 128 MB Creative 3DBlaster5 Radeon 9200SE are not while all of them are working FINE with an old PII mainboard . (tvout+DVI) I'm looking forward to hear from you . , Help me please .
Ps : Can new beta bios solve that problem ?
XP pro
2100+ 0.18m XP CPU with coolermaster CP5
40 GB Seagate Barracuda IV
300 watt Codegen Power Supply
2*256 MB Kingston DDR 2100 Memory
( No floppy , no souncard , no tv card etc , no any other devices like cdrom , dvdrom , cdrw etc.)

That's it!
I provided a few PSU's from my friends and tried 420 watt thermaltake and 520 watt VANTEC Stealth 520A PSU ...
Same situation happened and 128 MB Creative ATI Radeon video card didn't work ...
The problem can not be about PSU ...
I tried two different brand of fx 5200 (128 MB ) video card on my system (with 300 watt codegen PSU) . Everything is ok .
And I also tried the RADEON card on my friend's computer which is running with 230 watt Elan Vital PSU . It worked perfectly ...
So what can I think about that situation?
The Answer is : There is something about MSI mainboard ... When I wanted to contact with support center via e-mail , I got an automated e-mail answer which is not completely able to solve any of my problems.
Besides , I saw the problems between brand new Nforce mainboard of MSI and ATI video cards ...
SO , if we get all of these informations together , we can say "THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT MSI" ...
The solution is not buying expensive PSUs...
That's really bullshit , I can buy a brand new mainboard instead of an expensive PSU.
Finally , I bought an Asus mainboard , everthing is going ok now!
I'll not buy products of MSI anymore because they didn't do anything to solve my problem . Goodbye MSIIIIII ....................................... ........

K7t266 Pro2a onboard sound problems

Hi,
Everything works really well on my PC except the sound. I cannot hear anything, there is simply no sound. My motherboard, the k7t266 Pro2a has an onboard soundcard and I can't seem to get it to work :(
I am running Windows XP, by the way.
I've installed the DirectSound AC'97 Audio drivers, checked the volume, checked to see if the speakers were plugged into the right hole, and I checked to see if the jumpers were correctly fastened. No luck :( Oh yea and I checked to see if it was enabled in the bios. Still doesn't work...
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated, thanks so much!

yea i have and they work just fine, apparently my computer detects that it's there, and i can run wimamp, and I can't hear the sounds.

K7T266 Pro2 lock up problems...frustrated...

I have an MSI K7T266 Pro2 with latest bios and 1 512mb PC2100 ram - everything has been running fine until I started messing with bios settings. A friend setup bios and I "thought" that the DDR was running at 133mhz, my FSB was at 133mhz (266mhz). Since then, I can get my CPU to run at it's default speed - 1.733ghz and 266 FSB, but I can only get my RAM to run at 200mhz or 266mhz. I'm having random freezes/lock ups in Windows XP Pro - only when I'm doing something. Left my puter on all night last night and when I woke up, the puter did not freeze. It doesn't make any difference if I play music in the background while messing around on the net, etc. Any thoughts? Is it possible to run my 2100+ (palomino) at default speed/266mhz FSB and my RAM at 133mhz? Any help is greating appreciated...I'm going crazy!

Hello.
Your CPU is a 133MHZ (266DDR) FSB CPU and you ram is also 133MHZ(266DDR).
So all you need to do is set the FSB/MEMORY clock to 133MHZ.
Then change the CPU multiplier to AUTO.

I did try change settings like on raid make 1hdd master othr slave... but endup in same situation.
I noticed when my settings like this.
IDE3 or IDE4 (1 HDD Master other Slave) some times it's go through.
If I run just 1 HDD raid have no problem but as soon i try use 2nd 1 it's just start doing that freezing stuff.
I did test both hdd on regular IDE 1 and they work fine (atleast quick test ~5minute)
If any of you have and idea please let me know.
PS it's sux to be on 70mhz Computer (my backup pc )

I did try following settings.

Did work cuple times but usualy Freeze
Setting (Regular IDE 1) 8:
IDE 1 (HDD 1) Master
IDE 1 (HDD 2) Slave
Detect both HDD and works fine.
PS I used another hacked bios with (Raid Bios 1.31 (B22)) It some what detect HDDs but for some reason when I try Install Win XP (Trying to format 20GB) it basicly formating really slow (After 2-3 hours it was done on 50%)
IS there anyw ay to test RAID under dos some how?

K7T266 pro2 Ru v2.0 and XP 1800 problem.

Hi folks,
Please, I need your help !!!!
I have MSi K7T266 Pro2 Ru and Xp 1600 running ok.
I did buy a new processor AMD XP 1800 with following code :
AXDA 1800DLT3C 9505787270233
AIUGA 0247TPMW on black stamp
number 2791 (in gold) on corner and "B" in other side.
The motherboard does not boot up on first time....
thinking the problem to be the BIOS version....I did update to V 3.7.
Tryied agan , but the problem still appears....the motherboard do not boot up....all 4 led´s stay red on power on !
I did a test with 2 another motherboards : ECS K7S5A and ASUS A7V133 , these 2 run ok with processor.
Anyone know what is the problem ????
thanks for help

I have a K7T 266 Pro RU mainboard running the XP 2100 [and was running the XP1800]. Try reseating the CPU. Take the HSF off, take the CPU out and then reinstall it. I've had the problem once or twice on these boards and reseating the CPU seemed to solve it. As far as updating the BIOS, you don't have to add or remove anything on the board. Use the live BIOS and make sure the boot sector write protection in the BIOS is disabled.
Also note: The K7T266 Pro [any version] might have a stability problem with more that 512 MB of DDR memory. If you have more than 512MB [combinations of 1,2,3, 1GB or 3ea 256 MB or 3ea 512MB or 2 ea 512MB] your problem might be just the memory. There are many threads on K7T266 Pro stability problems with more than 512 MB or memory.

K7T266 PRO2 (MS6380 Ver 3.0) FDD Controler Problems

I just purchased a new boxed OEM MSI K7T266 PRO2 (MS6380 - Ver 3.0) motherboard from JUST DEALS on E-bay which seems to have very sparce (or none) documentation for download on this site. This is a non-raid board which has the AGP Pro video card socket (with the white lock and release lever at the end of the AGP female connector). The board can also be identified with the following rather unique component/connector layout at the bottom end of the board:
1. In place of where RAID connectors attach to most of these model boards, this board has three aux USB connectors above the connector where the case front panel connectors usually plug in.
2. There are 3 CDROM audio connectors at the lower left below the last PCI slot.
3. To the left of the case front panel connector, there are two rows of connectors and jumpers which appear to be for use with a case which has front panel audio connectors. I believe the jumpers are for the purpose of selecting which audio output to use (front or the standard rear sound output jacks.
4. The area between the last PCI slot and the USB and front panel audio connectors described above, the motherboard is rather blank with no components or even places where optional components have not been installed.
5. This motherboard has a Phoenix bios whereas most other K7T motherboards made by MSI seem to be AMI bios.
6. Finally, when doing a search for MS6380 Ver3.0 on Google, all the hits seem to be in Russian, German or French. I suspect that this MB may have been manufactured for the European market. BIOS display is in English, however.
PROBLEM
I have installed an AMD Athlon TBird 1.2 ghz cpu with 40mb WD hard drive which already had Windows Me and lots of other SW installed. The system boots just fine from the hard drive and all works well except for the Floppy drive. When I try to access the FDD with a know good disk installed with valid data, it comes on and spins up, the front light blinks and after about 30 seconds of continuous running, a message comes up "floppy disk not formated, format now: (Y/N)" If I try to format the disk, it will not format and the system will ask to check to see if a disk is installed. Changing floppy disks does not help, whether this is a disk which has verified data installed or just a formated blank disk. I have tried two different FDD cables and 3 different Floppy drives and always get the same result. I have checked for bent or broken pins in the connectors and found they are all good. The FDD is a 1.44 MB and is connected to the end of the two-drive cable. No other FDD is installed. When I go into the BIOS setup, I verify that Drive A is installed as a 1.44BM 3.5" Floppy and None is selected for Drive B.
I am currently at a loss to know how to proceed here. I am wondering if this could be a BIOS problem but I am not sure if I can find BIOS update on the MSI Web site when they do not even list a MS6380 Ver 3.0 motherboard at all.
I am considering installing a PCI FDD controller card but not sure that these are even manufactured.
Please help.

To Toenne:
Thanks for the reply. This has to be a BIOS problem since the FDD has to be accessed by the BIOS before any software or installed chipset drivers on the HD are ever used. With my problem, I cannot even boot the system from the FDD.
I tried resetting CMOS and that did not help. I wonder if there is some kind of multi-mode floppy disk drive which this BIOS expects to see other that you standard old fashion IBM 3.5" 1.44gb drive. The solution is likely to reflash the BIOS except with this odd MB serial number, I am not sure if I can find the latest BIOS software for this Phoenix chip.
Does anyone know if there are any PCI FDD controller cards on the market where I could disable the on-board controller and use a plug-in card?
Thanks

MSI K7T266 Pro2-RU - problem with the lite-raid - would like to use it as a normal ide

Hi!
I tried to install a single drive on the raid-controller and create a single array for it.
For some reason the disk management in Windows XP does not see it, even though
I have updated the related drivers. However, the Disk management showed it the first time after I had installed the HD onto the raid, but as I could not do anything intelligent with Disk management in regard of the HD, I removed the drive from Disk management with that effect that the disk management does not recognize the drive at all, even though I have now re-created the array on the risk, disabled and enabled raid on the Bios.
I read that there exists modified bios for MSI KT3 Ultra ARU BIOS, which will turn the Raid into regular IDE. That would be something that would most probably be the best way to proceed for me. However, do such bioses exist for MSI K7T266 Pro2-RU? Any other suggestions on how to get the disk management to succeed in recornizing the IDE on the raid-controller would be good to hear as well.
Yours sincerely,
Tero

Ok, I tried updating with the hacked 3.7 Full Raid Bios. Now I seem to have another problem: even though the hacked bios recognizes my HD, it thinks it's about 130 GB, when it in reality would be 250 GB. The hacked bios seems to work ok with Disk Management in Windows XP too, so it's a shame that the hacked bios doesn't seem to have a support for large disks. On the other hand the link at Lumberjacker was dead for the hacked bios v3.6, I would have tried it, if it would have provided me with a good solution to my problem.
I then went back and installed the official v3.7 bios and the lite raid does now recognize the HD being 250 GB, but the Disk Management just states "Missing" in regard of the HD and does not let me do anything fruitful with it. I looked the HD's properties and the Device Manager just states "Hardware device not connected code 45".
How in earth could I manage to make this work now (I do not want to move my other HD:s as they are full of stuff and don't want to risk losing any content)?
General specs of the computer: IDE 1: 60 GB and 120 GB Matrox, IDE 2: Nec2500 and Sony DVD-Rom, Athlon 1800+ XP, 512 MB memory, Ati 9700 np, Network adapter card. The new HD to be added is a 250 GB WD (have removed the jumper)
Thank you for any tips,
Tero

Problem between K7T266 Pro2-RU and ASUS GeForce 3 V8200

Hi, i've installed an ASUS GeForce 3 V8200 in my K7T266 Pro2-RU.
The system starts correctly, but when i force the AGP from BIOS at 4x all games doesn't run very well...
I usually play games like UT or RTCW and when i run they i see many problem with the 3D rendering and shadow build...
All drivers are up to date...
How can i resolve this problem ???
Thanx...

What are your system temperature, according to BIOS?
I think i'll follok the Toenne suggest. The difference between the AGP 2x and 4x is very small, anyway my drivers are (un)installed correctly and i don't have any PCI card near the AGP slot. Instead i think that in the future i'll pay more attention at the temperature problem: my Athlon XP 2000+ is hot also with a good copper cooler...
Another questios is, can anyone help me to find the best BIOS settings for my system?
In the next days i'll post my BIOS configuration so we can see where i've mistaken.
Thanx again...

K7T266 Pro2 RU problem and question

Hello
I recently upgraded my CPU from an Athlon Thunderbird 1.400 to a AthlonXP 1700+ on my MSI K7T266 Pro2 -RU (MSI 6380 v2.0). The problem is that when i have the option Fast Command enabled in the bios, windows (Windows XP Professional) will crash and reboot after a couple of minutes (this happens even while i am browsing the net). With my previous CPU the fast command option didn't cause any problems. I wanted to ask if there is a way to solve the problem as the Fast Command increases the performance of my PC by 6-7%.
Also while the mobo won't support the tb2200+ will it support a lower clocked tb cpu (like 2000+)? And will i have a problem if i take an AXP2000+ and o/c it to 2200+ or 2300+?
Sorry if the above questions are already answered but its 02:40 in the morning and i don't have the courage to search the forum
Thank you for your replies

I had the fast command problem with the 512 mb generic ram (2x256) which i replaced later with the corsair XMS 2400, so i don't think that the cause of the problem is the memory. The memory now runs at 145 at CAS2 stable.
I will try tomorrow flashing the mobo with the 3.3 bios and see if it solves it (i had the 3.6 before i installed the new cpu).
Also i read in another forum that a mobo supports up to a specific cpu because higher clocked cpus require higher current and might destroy the circuitry in the mobo. If this is not true and its just a bios support issue then i will buy a XP2000+ and will try to o/c it to FSB 145-150 (2200+ to 2300+).
Do you have the fast command enabled? I see we have the same mobo, memory and (almost) the same cpu.

K7T266 Pro2 incompatibilty problem with Nvidia GeForce4 Ti4200

I just bought the GeForce4 Ti 4200 from Siluro and installed it on my MSI K7T266 Pro2 MB and have since then experienced some problems when booting XP pro.
Everything seems to work fine untill the very last application loads in XP after boot. Then the screen turn white, the mouse cursor becomes a black and white stripped square and the system reboots automatically. Generally after second boot, evreything seems to work fine but I get an XP error message stating that "the Nvidia Geforce4 TI 4200 drivers may be the origin of the critical problem encountered".
I have all lastest drivers for both the MB (Bios 3.7 + lastest VIA drivers) and the Nvidia GeForce (Detonator 41.09) and yet experience the problem... Help!!

Problems with K7t266 Pro2 and Soundblaster live 5.1

Hi all,
having a bit of a problem here with the above combination K7T266 pro2 and SB live5.1.
When playing music, watching video etc. every now and then I get something that sounds like bus noise, just for a few seconds and then the music continues, sometimes it also happens that video stops during the few seconds.
I have latest bios on mainboard, latest drivers for SB live, Via chipset, latest GPU drivers.
I tried changing IRQ's, took all other cards out, etc.
Nothing seems to work and it is getting very annoying. :( :(
Anyone any tips or tricks??
Thanx
Greetz

K7T266 Pro2 USB problem

hello!
I Have a K7T266 Pro2 mainboard, but I can't get the USB to work. I have changed the settings in BIOS to
USB Controller :ALL USB Port
USB Legacy Support :ALL Device
The computer finds the ports but when I try to install the drivers it doesn't work, a message shows up were it says that the hardware couldn't be installed. It looks for a files called usbhub20.sys in C:\WINDOWS\System32, can it be somethng wrong with the drivers?
or what do you think it is?
I also checked out my mainboards homepage, and there they have drivers for NEC USB 2.0 Driver. But it also says that win xp users only need servicepack 1, but I allready have that

I would not select the USB Legacy support option. I have a K7t266 pro - RU and have all USB ports working including those on the Hercules Game theater with the drivers that come with the mobo.
