K8D Master-F not recognising 2nd processor

Hello, I have just built a system based on this motherboard and a pair of Opteron 242s. Running with one processor is fine - but if I add a second processor the system says that it still only has one. I know both processors work because I have tried each of them in the first socket and the system boots with either. The processors are also a matched pair apparently pulled from a working SMP machine.
I am very puzzled, are there jumpeers to disable the second socket which I am not aware of ? I am used to motherboards not working when a secoond CPU is added, but I've never seen one which just ignores it!
All suggestions gratefully received.

Yes, latest BIOS is in there - memory is in the correct slots for seeing the whole gig, and I also tried it in the other combinations too - i.e. attaching half to each processor. Result of that was that it only saw the half attached to CPU-0 and nothing attached to CPU-1.
Am thinking broken board myself actually :-( Or at least a broken socket...

  • Qosmio X500 - not recognising 2nd Hard Drive

    Hi there
    I had performed a clean installation of Window 7 Home Premium (64 bit) and accidentally formated both Hard Drive using Window Custom Installation.
    Windows installation went OK but the system is not reconising the 2nd Hard Drive.
    Can someone please help and advise what I should do to rectify this.
    Thanks a lot.

    Thanks for the response.
    I couldn't locate "Computer Manaement". I didnt't reload all Toshiba Ultility software and drivers.
    But I can see the 2nd HDD using "System Informaton" /"System Summary" / "Component".
    Drivers I'd loaded since clean installation are:
    - Intel Chipset SW Installation Utility 9.9.9.10.20
    - Intel Management Engine Interface 6.0.0.1184
    - NVidia Display Driver
    - Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver 1.0.2.1002

    - Toshiba Disc Creater
    - Toshiba DVD Player
    - Toshiba HW Setup Utility
    - Win DVD BD V8 fir Toshiba
    I didn't load all the utilities and drivers hoping the this will speed up the computer start up time. Am I missing something or doing something incorrect here?
    Thanks.

  • Referenced Master Drive is not recognised

    Most of my master images are stored as referenced files on an external hard drive. However , when I connect it to my laptop , Aperture does not recognise it as my referenced library. I use the "locate masters " pane and when I put matched images in the top and bottom of the panes the reconnect and the reconnect all buttons are greyed out. The drive also is showing as "offline " in the top pane.
    I am beginning to panic a little as I have 30000 referenced images...Please help.

    WHAT MAKE is the drive case?
    WD drives are fine, WD MyBook and Passport, not so much.
    Some WD cases are built around the drive, it can't be removed or upgraded.
    Otherwise it would work fine in OWC Mercury and all their drive cases are fine.

  • Ipod nano 1st & 2nd not recognised on PowerBook

    hello
    i'm sure something like this post is here somewhere. but there are just too many to read through.
    here is my dilemma.
    i have just bought an ipod nano 1st gen & a 2nd gen. both work fine on my work computer (brand new MacBook). but when i plug them into my personal PowerBook G4, they are not recognised. my PB is running osx 10.4 and my itunes is up-to-date (exactly the same version as my MB.
    i have tried both USB ports and nothing. it looks like its charging, but thats it. the screen with "do not disconnect" does not appear.
    any ideas anyone?
    i even tried them both on an old ibook - they work just fine.
    cheers

    hello
    i have tried restarting - no luck. i have tried different cable - no luck.
    i plugged in a high-speed thumb drive, this worked. i opened system profiler and my usb saw that it was a high speed device.
    my computer seems to be refusing to see ipods as an attached device, whilst other computers have no problems.
    why is it refusing too see ipods????? i'm at a loss.

  • Master Suite installation not recognising disc 2

    Title sums it up. When I put disc 2 in the installer does not recognise it and coninues to ask for disc 2. Disc is in almost perfect shape. Any help is much appreciated.

    Thank you for the help. In the future if you are helping someone in my position that has been stuck in somewhere in the actual installation process they may need to use this before installing the downloaded files as I did.

  • K8D Master-F 9131 problem with BIOS 1.2 and Raidcore BC4852

    The board does not start the Raidcore BIOS with motherboard 9131 BIOS 1.2 installed. It works OK wih BIOS 1.1.
    Raidcore 4852 FW is V130. (tested V110 = same problem)
    Bios found here:
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/download/dld/spt_dld_detail.php?UID=441&kind=3
    Both 1.1 and 1.2 BIOS was unable to recognise my Opteron 242 CPU steppings which indicate they are both quite old. Maybe MSI could fix these problems and include the newer CPU steppings like the ones for 250 CPUs. Bios 1.2 is dated nov. 28th 03 which is a year old. BUHU.
    I am building a LARGE storage server based on this motherboard. Several others to come (planning on using the MSI K8D Master 3 -133 9161), but if MSI does not upgrade the BIOS for their high end boards I will start looking for another supplier real fast.
    Sincerely

    I'll stick with the V1.10, but I'd fell better if MSI showed me they actively update their systems by releasing updated BIOS files from time to time.
    I can't sell a 15000$ storage system that doesn't recognise the CPUs installed. The customer would laugh and tell me to come back with a supported system.
    Isn't this a VERY valid reason for wanting updates? Even if it only is an updated CPU list?
    The only reason I tried this MSI board is that it was the only one available with my retailer at the time I bought it with 3 PCI-X 100Mhz slots. Maybe I should go with a Tyan Thunder next time. Tyan at least show some activity.

  • K8D-Master and Highpoint SATA controllers

    Has anyone been able to get a K8D-Master to boot from a Highpoint SATA controller?
    I've tried 2 cards - the 1520 and the 1542 - both without much success.
    Both cards are recognised in OS setup, but when it comes to boot, I just get the BIOS message saying "Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key" (interesting use of capitals!).  This happens regardless of whether I've got the disks RAIDed or not.
    The 1520 is all fine in the K8D-Master's BIOS boot section, but when you try to enter setup with a 1542 plugged it, it puts "WAIT" in the middle of the screen and freezes.  Neither card it seems is capable of actually booting the machine - however both cards work perfectly in other boxes.
    A Silicon Image (sil3112) controller works fine, however there is no support for its RAID functionality in FreeBSD and I'd rather not send this box packing without mirrored disks.
    Any help in the matter would be greatly appreciated.

    ok never heard of it before
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/server/svr/pro_svr_detail.php?UID=441
    are you setting scsi second in boot order to cdrom
    have you defined the array in the raid cards bios
    have you hit f6 as xp install starts and feed in raid drivers
    other than that it sounds like a bios issue your best emailing msi about
    we dont get that many server board users in here

  • IPod Nano: Error Message "The USB device has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognise it"

    Hi everyone, I just received 2 brand new iPod Nanos for my kids for Christmas, thought I'd be smart and sync them both now before wrapping them so I don't have to be messing around with them on the day. One synced without a problem, then using the same cable, same computer, same USB port, the 2nd one came up with "The USB device has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognise it" I've tried restarting my computer, unplugging and reinserting the USB. Is there anthing else I can try before returning it? Thanking you for any help.

    I have solved my problem, I ended up ringing Apple and got an awesome lady who told me to reset it by pressing the sleep button and menu button together for about 10 seconds and once it actually turned on for the first time the computer then recognised it, so it's all good, :-) Thank you lovely lady!

  • 20" Apple Cinema Display not recognised after upgrading to OS 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion)

    20" Apple Cinema Display not recognised after upgrading to OS 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion).
    Hello Apple! Anybody there? How long does your community have to wait for a solution?
    The same problem has been unsolved for months now. No statements from Apple either.
    I was told today to wait for 10.8.3. This might solve the issue. I can not belive my ears.
    My MacBookPro 4,1, Intel Core 2 Duo with 2.5 GHz Processor and Graphics chip: NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT, will not talk to the exter. 20" Cinema Display ( Model Number A1081 ). The screen stays black. Resetting the PRAM did not help. I removed the 'com.apple.windowserver.plist' and the 'com.apple.windowserver.OE35739etc,etcxxxxxxxxxxx.plist', but that did not help either.
    Any other solutions, or do I have to downgrade or give up on Apple Computers alltogether after using them for over 25 years?

    I found out that I needed a $100 mini displayport to dual-link dvi adapter to make my $30" cinema display work with my macbook pro
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter?fnode=51
    When I found out that solved the problem, I took it back because that was too expensive for a stupid adapter, and it still didn't work perfectly.

  • My Apple TV does not recognise My iTunes password. It works on all other devices but not Apple TV? Any ideas why or how to fix?

    Any ideas why my Apple TV does not recognise my iTunes password, when all other devices, including these communities are good with it?

    Hi Mick2291,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I'd suggest restarting, and then restoring, your Apple TV if the issue persists:

  • Ipod touch not recognised in windows or itnes since updating to itunes9

    Hi all,
    I upgraded to itunes9 and now my ipod touch (2nd gen 16gb) is not recognised in either windows or itunes.
    The ipod still charges via the USB lead so presmably there is nothing wrong there
    So far I have tried the following
    Uninstalled all itunes, apple stuff, bonjour etc
    reinstalled
    still same issue.. stopped and restarted apple mobile.. repaired apple mobile.. etc etc
    rebooted a zillion times and spent the last 36 hours tearing my hair out all to no avail, its still not recognised.
    At one stage i had a "device found" message, swiftly followed by a "device has malfunctioned" error message and back to square one again.
    It's my understandin that I can't ring apple (unless I pay) as I have had the ipod since Jan 2009 so if anyone here could help or has any suggestions I wold really appreciate it.
    In the device manager there is nothing ipod related in the Universal Serial Bus section or anwhere else in there, have tried it in every USB port.. it charges from them all.. but nothing else. I'm so frustrated
    Sue.

    This is happening to me also. After installing Windows 7-64, the sync with my Ipod freezes after a couple of songs transfers. Tried everything imaginable: Itunes reinstall, execute with compability to VIsta, energy safe mode off to USB ports/hubs, cable change, restore Ipod. I have a Acer Aspire M3641, lastest ITunes version, latest software on Ipod. Please Microsoft, Apple, Intel, whoever, WAKE UP !!! Code 0xE8000065

  • All downloads failing to mount and iTunes not recognising iPod!

    My iBook G4 (Model No A 1055) needs alot of updates however i can't install anything. It downloads to the Desktop fine but when i go to open the attachment so i can actually install it a message comes up saing "The following disk images failed to mount" and the reason is a "corrupt image". I have tried to do this with Firefox, iTunes and Adobe and they all say the same!
    I also now have issues with iTunes (7.2) which is all of a sudden not recognising my iPod shuffle (2nd gen). It doesn't come up in devices or anything when plugged in my iPod shuffle will just flash orange a few times and then nothing. I have tried to connect it to another (and much newer) Mac computer however it doesn't recognise it on there either.
    Has technology just got so good my lappy is basically extinct and i need a new one or is there something i / Apple can do to help get me up to date with everything? Any help and feedback would be really appreciated.
    Thanks
    Louise

    if you are running OS 10.3, it's pretty much obsolete
    you can try getting OS 10.5 installed, but it can slow down the computer, 10.4 is not much use anymore either.

  • ITune not recognising iPod touch, on and off.

    Okay, this is not the usual iTunes not recognising the iPod.
    I had this problem when I first set up my iPod. After a full uninstall and reinstall of iTunes, as described in the support article, my iPod was recognised. Now I have added more music to my collection, and a couple of the apps need updating I wanted to update my iPod. I connected my iPod and nothing, it does not show in iTunes. It is showing in my computer as a camers which I really wish it would stop doing. Also when my iPod was connected the first time I set up to allow it to wirelessly update and it won't do that either.
    I am stuck on what else to do. I just hope I am not going to have to do a full uninstall and reinstall every time I want to update my iPod, because it rather defeats the purpose.
    I have read and followed the instructions here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/assistant/itunes/
    I have even de-authorised and re-authorised my account as suggested at the Apple store. It is the latest model of touch, not sure what gen that is but it is only two weeks old. What else can I do to try and get this sorted?

    Illass thank you for the reply, but as I said I have done everything on the support page. I even printed off the uninstall instructions as it gave you a rather precise order to do it in and I did check for the folders to see if they had been left, I learnt that when I updated my graphics drivers and still a game said my card wasn't up to scratch, even though my card supported shading 4.0 it only needed 2.0 for the game.
    I also printed off the software conflict information otherwise I would have gotten totally lost.
    However thank you for the disabling info, as it was getting a tad annoying when I was connecting it to charge up.
    I decided to uninstall and reinstall again and low and behold it is recognised again. That makes it the second time I have had to do this to get my touch recognised. However doing this everytime I want to update is going to be rather annoying.
    Ah the days of the Nano 2nd gen, and the innoence of those times. Shame some clumsy so-an-so knocked it out of my hand and stepped on it as it was just so simple to use.
