K8N Neo Platinum 754 1t/2t
Hey guys,
This may have been answered, but on a K8N Neo Platinum 754 with 3200+ Athlon, how do I access my 1T/2T Ram timings? Also, is the BIOS fixed yet (1.5) for this motherboard, or do you know where a beta can be found without the bugs, suchs as non adjustable HyperTrans speeds and unstable system performace. Thanks all!!!

Does K8N Neo Platinum(ms-7030) have Dual Channel Support?
Hey i have 2x1gb sticks of corsair xms DDR-400 PC 3200 ram and i can't get it to run in dual channel mode, does this motherboard even suport dual channel mode, because according to this http://www.memory-up.com/Memory_Finders/MSI-Memory-MSI-MS-7030-K8NNEOPLAT-Memory.html it doesn't.
btw both cpu-z and memtest86 tell me im running in single channel mode, and i've tried all combinations of DIMM Slots
Any help would be appreciated

Thanks for the quick reply, looks like im out of luck on that
I wouldn't worry about that too much... As far as everyday use goes, a 754 board is almost as fast as a 939 setup at similiar CPU speeds.
The only way to see the difference is by running a bunch of different benchmark progs, which have little to do with the "real world" anyway. -
Guys I need your help.... dudes it's been a rough night. Last night I ran the MSI Update program and it found a new BIOS for my Socket 754 MSI-7030 MSI K8N Neo Platinum. So I installed 1.90 and rebooted, well tried to. The shutdown was ok and the reboot consisted of the drive lights going on, drives whirring, and then going off. That was it.
I reset, the same thing happened; I cycled the power the same thing happened. I went to bed deciding I would crawl around looking for the CMOS reset jumpers in the morning. I couldn't sleep so I got my pocket PC and did some searching and found some similar problems on the web.
I got up and hard reset the BIOS. It started and I could get as far as the BIOS but not boot Windoze. I reset BIOS to defaults, no joy. I turned some extras off like USB storage support, no joy. Eventually I remembered someone on the forums saying that he changed his memory to 333 bus speed from 400 and it boots for him (he also has Corsair memory). So I did this and now I am booted into WINDOWS!
I tried to flash the BIOS to the 1.50 version (I have no floppy drive so I use the MSI version of Winflash) it errored half way through :-( So I tried to run the updater and try to install 1.90 again so that the reboot wont bork my PC with half a BIOS. The flash is very slow then I get a verify error at 2%.
I am now worried, very worried. I don't want to shutdown the PC
Heeeellllppp!!!!

Sorry to hear that you rebooted, but this can hopefully be a good thing for us two guys stuck with our systems on...
Can you please try a bios rescue floppy disc? As far as I have read, this is simply just a bootable DOS disk with the award
flash utility and the MSI bios added to the autoexec.bat file. Apparently the bootblock in your bios will try to boot your
floppy disk, and will run the flash command in the autoexec.bat file and will flash the bios. You wont be able to see anything
on screen, but you should see the floppy disk reading.
Official details of how to do this are in this forum sticky:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=81017.0
It has links to bootable floppy images, and links to procedures.
Please let us know if this worked, and the exact procedure you used, we would be very grateful

Bios from my Msi k8n Neo Platinum (socket 754)
Wich is the last beta bios from my Msi k8n Neo Platinum (socket 754) ?
And where download?
ThanksA thread here , from when 1.56 appeared:
MSI K8N Neo Plat Beta Bios 1.56
and when 1.55 appeared:
New Bios For MSI K8N Neo Platinum [ 1.55]
Seems to me that the 1.5x series were focused on chipset timings and ram .
Another thing is that i can boot from a usb pen with this one .(never got it to work with others) .
Beta bioses don't come with a changelog , they leak out . So any complete
list of changes is not possible to provide. -
300gb doesn't work on K8n neo platinum
Hi guys! This is my first post ever so please bear with me if it confuses the hell out of everybody
Here's my setup:
Antec 480w
3400+ amd64 1mb L2 cache 754 pin
MSI K8N Neo Platinum
1gb Crucial Ballistix pc3200
2 x 36gb WD raptors
1 200gb IDE seagate 7200rpm 8mb buffer
ATI 256mb 9800xt
pioneer dual layer dvd-108
lite-on CDR
Floppy drive
Ok here's the problem. Everything on the top works fine! My computer has been on for 2 months straight without nothing happening. Now when i finally turned it off, I decided to add the new 300gb maxtor SATA 16mb buffer drives. After I did that, and formated it, it worked for a time. Most of the time after i restart or turn off my computer, windows does not post; it locks up to that screen that says "Windows XP" with the bar scrolling on the bottom of it. Some times it just sticks forever at the beginning bios post with the drives being dectected.
My raptors are hooked up on raid 0 on SATA 3 and 4. My optical drives are on IDE-1. My seagate 200gb os on IDE-0. The moment i added the 300gb maxtor SATA to SATA port 1, that is when i started having the problems.
I checked to make sure everything is right:
1. Check boot prioritys.
2. Check jumpers.
3. Updated bios, even the beta-bios.
4. I made sure all the settings are correct. I even cleared CMOS to do it all over again just to make sure.
5. Installed latest drivers and SP 2 (oh i'm running windows XP sp2 by the way)
I was thinking that SATA 1-2 ports are shared with port IDE-0. If that is true, then that's probably why the computer is getting a confused. I don't know, i talked to my friends and they said they had all the SATA ports used up and also the IDE ports. I'm not sure, sometimes i can get windows to post but with a couple of restarts (54 restarts to be exact :P ) Also if it does post, windows freezes sometimes when i try to add new stuff to the 300gb.
I think that's everything. I hope somebody could help me because i'm about to throw this HD out the window, jump on it until i can't breath anymore, then light a cigarette with a happy smile on my face...Quote from: sauria on 14-March-05, 11:32:18
Yeah, just doesn't like the 16M cache drive
I'll receive a maxtor 200gb 16mb sata (6B200S0) by the beginning of the week so I'll probably be working on the problem too -
Turn on PC with keyboard [K8N Neo Platinum]
Is it possible to turn your pc on by pressing a button on your keyboard? I have a friend with an old pc (1,5 ghz P4), and he claims that he can turn his pc on that way.
So technically I'm asking you if you know how to do that. Is there a BIOS option in which you can configure the keyboard button on which your computer will respond and go on automatically? That would be very handy.
My motherboard is the K8N Neo Platinum with a 3000+ socket 754. He has an ASUS motherboard.
Thanks.Check the manual. It should be an option in the bios. I have it in my bios for my board, but when I helped someone put together their machine with a K8N Platinum 2, I didn't see this as an option in that bios. It may be that power on by keyboard and/or mouse is not an option for your board.

MSI K8N Neo Platinum and hyperttransport
Can someone please explain to me how MSI K8N Neo Platinum uses hypertransport? What is the option in the bios for hypertransport used for? What is it's advantages/disadvantages?

2 * 800MHz = 1600MHz or 1.6GHz
I'm sure you've seen AMD advertise a 1600MHz HyperTransport in response to Intel's 800MHz FSB.
To my knowledge, you can't use the 5x multiplier in Socket 754 (unless you underclock the Front Side Bus?)
The 5x will be available on Socket 939.
Ah. That's very enlightening. Thanks for the info. -
MSI K8N NEO Platinum Edition Low Benchmark scores
Hi, can someone please help?
I have these details of my friends new PC :
MSI K8N NEO Platinum Edition
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.2 GHz Socket 754, 512 KB cache
Corsair Value S. PC3200 DDR-DIMM 512MB
I have run a sandra memory bandwidth test on it and I think he gets really low scores for his spec.
int buff'd 2657
float buff'd 2656
This is the scores he gets un tweaked and not overclocked. Do these sound like reasonable out of the box scores??
Any information would be appreciatedQuote

not 100% true either beacuse if you then run encoding apps etc which are mem bandwidth dependant the 3C would own. it is not true to say they are not real world results, just games and most apps dont bottleneck on the mem bandwidth.....now that is will be different on 64-bit coding but of course the A64 would still own the 3C on them.
just for the record i would never buy an intel. -

Is your video card power plugged in?
I replaced my CPU about 6 weeks ago & I was getting beep & no post and I was tearing my hair out trying to figure out what was wrong... After much "weeping, wailing & gnashing of teeth" I came to find out that my power molex on my 6800 wasn't connected.

K8N Neo Platinum - Powers Up Powers Down.
Ok, this problem has been around for nearly 2 years, but havnt addressed it since the machine wasnt being used. Now, however I must resurrect it!
Running a K8N Neo Platinum (MS-730 v1), the only hardware I have in it a Sapphire Radeo 9700XT card which I have tested and is ok. No RAM in the box, no HD's, CD/DVD, completely barebones.
Power supply is Thermaltake PurePower 420W confirmed working.
When I power on the box with the CPU and heatsink installed, all fans spin up, for about 10 seconds then everything goes dead. No beeps, nothing.
With the CPU out of the box, powering up the box, everything stays powered on a'ok. Nothing dies. So, what do you think? CPU or Board?
Processor is AMD Athlon 64 3400+ ClawHammer 2.2GHz Socket 754. Yes, I have cleared the CMOS, and replaced the BIOS battery.The memory is golden, should still get to post screen even w/ no memory installed.

take CPU out and find a way to test it somewhere else. if CPU is fine, then must be failure mainboard if we dismiss PSU factor(you have already tested with 2 PSU's good ones) -
The same old problem with temperatures (K8N Neo Platinum)
I have problems since bios v1.0 on my K8N Neo Platinum with temeparutes.
I have installed a Prometeia Mach II St colling unit
I Tested the v1.0 official bios, the temperature was allways -65º full ou idle, what it is impossivel.
In the moment i flashed the bios to v1.2b5, temperature changed to 49º, and I did not move in nothing. The same temperature appears in all bios since v1.2b5. Now I have the v1.4b2 bios
Sorry the Bad EnglishHere are the instructions to reflash the BIOS for your K8 Neo. I am currently running ver.1.4 with little problems. My only snafu is the LED for my optical mouse stays lit even when system is off, however I have no RAID, Ethernet, onboard sound, or SATA drives. I have just a simple basic system, and I don't overclock. My board is the K8 Neo Platinum socket 754, with an AMD64 3000+. YOU MUST HAVE A FLOPPY DRIVE CONNECTED TO SYSTEM FOR THESE INSTRUCTIONS TO WORK!.
Flashing BIOS on K8 Neo per MSI. READ ALL instructions before starting.
1.Check your BIOS for flashing protection and disable it.
2. Know your board model#. a. Open case and find model# on the board between the PCI slots, or b., boot system and at first DOS screen you will see 'W7030ver1.4122101'. This means you have a MSI model 7030 motherboard with BIOS version 1.4 issued on 12/21/01.
3.Download the Bios that matches your motherboard model and version#.(I believe the Neo Plat had two versions, 1.0 and 1.1). I have 1.0. It will be found between the PCI slots. Create a folder on C: drive labeled 'C:\TEST'
4.EXtract the BIOS file to C:\TEST folder.
5.Create a boot floppy. For XP, at Desktop double click My Computer, right click floppy drive, click Format to format the disk, then click 'Create MS-DOS Boot Disk'.
6. Set boot order to floppy. Hit F11 to select boot device.
7. Insert boot floppy and restart system.
8. At A:\ prompt type in the following,
C:\ (enter)
cd\TEST(enter)
awdfl833c(space)w7030nms.130
The w7030nms.130 is the BIOS file name you downloaded to C:\TEST. Keep in mind you're dealing with DOS file names, so you may need to open a DOS window in Windows, and search C drive for the TEST folder and write down the DOS file name of the BIOS file BEFORE you start the BIOS update.
9. Reboot when prompted. It shouldn't take more than 10 seconds to update the BIOS. -
K8N Neo Platinum BIOS 1.4 temperatures
When I upgraded my K8N Neo Platinum from BIOS version 1.3 to 1.4 temperatures jumped up by 7 to 10 degrees and average vcore dropped by about .03 volts (both read from Core Center).
Both readings reverted back when I switched back to BIOS 1.3. I'm just concerned as to which is more accurate. I was planning on doing some mild overclocking on this system, but if the 1.4 readings are right (51C idle) then I don't have much room.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any idea on which temps are more accurate?
My system:
K8N Neo Platinum (socket 754)
A 64 3400 (Newcastle)
Enermax 550 watt power supply
Thermaltake Venus 12 CPU coolerIf you check around you will see, especially as applies to Neo2s the temp numbers are all screwed up. With all prior bioses my computer showed temps ranging from +175 to -128 irrespective of load.
This is especially irksome as I am vapor cooling and know from an external temp probe I installed right on top of the heat spreader on the CPU that I am running well below zero even under full load.
I cannot comment on the 1.41 bios yet because my board decided to blow up a capacitor last week and I haven't received my replacement yet. -
