K8n neo4 platinium, any hope for a software controll of SB fan ?

Hello there
Like some other peoples here i have a k8n neo4  platinium and think than its northbridge fan is REALLY noisy.
What is the trick with this Northbridge fan ? I have to buy a normal one that doesn't  rotate at 23235564rpm, when i already payed extra for "platinium mobo" ?   Olders mobo of that line HAD the option to change nortbridge fan rotation, newer don't, is that product improvement?
Do we even have an hope of MSI realeasing some magic bios with the an unlocked option or did their "engineers" decided than it was better to have max speed hardwired ?
Also just because i had to say it:
-Some time ago i already didnt liked when they wanted us to get new power supply (because of additional connectors) to be able to run the new proc.
-There is also this trick with CPU fan, what is the story there? they make up crappy fans , then we have to void the guarranty to put normal ones instead, and no contructor decided to sell "something" that could go in place of amd ones without getting us to void the guarranty? (am i paranoid or they WANT us to void their guarranty)
-MSI itself as well as some other vendors start to sell mobo with proprietary expension slots , with no other reason of being there than to be able to sell their third party product (it s not faster, nor easier to get working not, nor a chipset or the HW constraint of only having 3 pci slots), i mean i really don't like this kind of "marketting techniques".

MSI should offer a tradein program where you could mail in the old NB HSF, and theyd send you a better one. That would be service. 
they do. just search the forums please. there are many people who sent back their fans for a less noisier replacement. however, most go with aftermarket ones.

I Agree, and find it sad that no one at MSIs own support forum hasnt answered this thread for +120 days :(
read the forum rules. there are no MSI employees on this forum. this is a user to user forum.

  • PROBLEM : BUILDING DMI POOL -WITH- K8N NEO4 PLATINIUM, Ultra nForce 7125

    Hello   
    Problem with motherboard K8N NEO4 Platinum!!!   
    Description - BUILDING DMI POOL 
    Configuration: 
    MOTHERBOARD K8N NEO4 PLATINIUM, Ultra nForce 7125 
    AMD Athlon 64, 3700, Socket 939 
    Video: ASUS Carries to an extreme N6200TC, 256 RAM 
    2 JIG RAM Kingston PC3200 CL3 184-PIN DIMM KIT(2 PSC) model: KVR400X64C3AK2/2G 
    Power Supply RAIDMAX +24 PIN +4 PIN CPU+SATA 450W 
    I want to initialize the PC from the CD to install WIN XP, I can change the beginning sequence FROM the BIOS configuring the CD like first device, but from the menu boot with F11 I cannot change the boot order, this fixed one in the +HHD 
    Already change for several HHD, CD and Power Supply but the continuous problem!!!!!!!!!! 
    I believe that it is a problem with the CMOS it already cleans it from the reset button and it doesn't pass anything!!!!!!! 
    Thank You, for your help…

    Borger_Montr,
    The think you problem maybe the +12V@22A on your Power Supply, I highly recommend a Minimum of 28-30A and I repeat minimum.
    If I am right you can prove it this way, you say you cannot even boot from Floppy drive or CD.
    Leaving you case sides off unplug all of your case fans, power supply, CPU and motherboard Chipset fans are all you need if your turning it on for a short test.
    In addition, Unplug all drives except for the floppy drive.
    Then, insert a bootable disk into the floppy drive.
    Boot the system, it should boot from the floppy with no problems.
    If it boots from the floppy, you need a new power supply and when buy your new PS total power is a useless number.  The +12V output current rating the one to look for on a single rail supply like you have now again 30A Minimum 35-40A would be better, on multiple +12V power supply each rail should be rated at 20A Minimum.  I do not care how many rails you has each must have 20A or more.  Another thing to make sure of make sure the power supply has all the correct cables and connect you motherboard and Graphics cards.  Each graphics card and all of the power connectors on the motherboard should have there own cable with correct plugs that connect directly to the Power Supply.  For no reason should you need any power cable adapters, all that means is that power supply was not meant for your system.
    If you need any more details of instruction or I did not explain something well enough that you understood completely, please reply and ask pacific questions.   
    Roger
    When submitting a problem, include a complete list of your system components; include part numbers, all Power Supply Voltages, and their output ratings.  It is almost impossible to estimate what your problem is without knowing something about it. 

  • Any hope for music folders on the ipod Touch?

    Hi All
    It is getting VERY difficult to manage my music on my 32 Gb iPod Touch. I have hundreds of playlists (for example one playlist for every version of a classical piece; on playlist for a pop album, etc. etc.)
    Is there any hope for music folders as in iTunes on the Touch?
    ed

    Why do you have a playlist for every album? If your tracks are tagged properly, you can just use the album menu on the Touch.
    As for when/if there will be folders on the Touch, the only people who know are probably working under non-disclosure agreements. Who knows what will change when version 2.0 of the software comes out next month.
    Best of luck.

  • Any hope for Powermac G4 400 mhz?

    I have GB running on a Powermac G4 400 mhz and, not surprisingly, it gives me the "disk too slow" message after more than 3 or 4 tracks. Without investing too much $, is there any hope for upgrading this to a more workable solution for GB, or would I be better off going to a mini w/1.42 Ghz? I'm concerned that the mini might not work that much better.

    I'll offer an opinion...
    If you can slip a Mini and an external FireWire drive into your budget, that's the way I would go (If you're willing to turn a screwdriver and shop around online for a few weeks, a nice sized FW drive and enclosure can be purchased separately for a total under $100. For some more money a very nice sized drive can be had)
    The weakest link in the Mini is the very slow HD it has. Add the FW drive and you'll have a lot more machine than I use as my recording machine in the studio (800Mc iBook)
    Naturally it depends how far/hard you plan to go/push.
    Effects and software instruments are very processor intensive. Audio is mostly HD intensive.

  • Any hope for syncing a "LG Dare" (Verizon)

    Well as i'm sure many of you have seen the new "3G iPhone Competitor" will be released on verizon this week. any hope for syncing with iCal and or Contacts?
    Please don't rip on me for this I just cannot afford a plan on ATT.

    This is great... I got my music on my dare even under the "My Music" Folder on the phone using the method above (Bluetooth Exchange)....
    one problem...
    theres no way to get it off after you do that.... if you try to delete songs off your phone via Bluetooth Exchange it says "Last Operation Failed Bad Request..."
    and of course theres no way to delete them from the phone... that would be too simple (thanks LG)
    and since I have a mac....
    i cant use the verizon sync program to get them off...
    so for now i only have 4 songs on my Dare... but they are on my internal memory... perhaps... eternally.
    Please reply if you have any advice...
    maybe i missed something ...

  • Is there any hope for a Nano 6th gen that went through the washing machine?

    Is there any hope for a Nano 6th Gen that went through the washing machine?  All of the devices contents are showing up in iTunes when connected but the device itself is not working.

    Hello kpratta,
    There is some hope. I have heard of someone putting the ipod in a bag of dry rice and putting the bag in a dark place for a 4-5 days. After that they used this:
    www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    This has the best chance. The rice absorbs any liquid in the ipod.
    Hope this helps.

  • Any hope for a liquified macbook?

    Water was spilled on my Macbook last night. Once it had a few hours to dry, I powered it on. Sadly, when I got to the main log-in screen, everything was frozen... from the mouse to the keyboard. Any hope for this Macbook?

    Hi
    With any liquid damage you run the risk of corroding internal components. Depending on where the spillage was and which direction the liquid 'ran' there's the potential of 'shorting' the smaller yet crucial components. Your next problem is the cost or repair. If the the MacBook is still under warranty it won't be covered for accidental or willful damage. Additionally the price of the replacement part is at least one/third more expensive than the cost of an exchange part. Apple keep the prices down on components that fail using an exchange system. If there's damage to the component for whatever reason the part would be replaced with a completely new part.
    I would pursue an insurance claim if I was you. Most standard house insurance policies will cover individual items up to a certain price.
    HTH?

  • Any hope for a 5c retrieved from water immediately?

    Is there any hope for a iPhone 5c that was dropped in the water?  Put it in rice for 18 hours and it started up.  Shut it down and tried a little later and NOTHING.

    Overnight may be enough if it was a splash of water (ie: you left the phone near a sink while washing dishes, forgot to dry your hands before touching it, and some water got in the dock connector/headphone jack), but if it was fully submerged and was powered on at the time, odds are it's been damaged already. It may power on and seem fine after a week, but it's very likely you will need to replace it much sooner than you'd expected.
    Apple will replace it for a fee ($269 is the cost listed here for Out-of-Warranty service).

  • Any hope for Spaces working in PSE 8.0?

    I just discovered the power of using Spaces in OS X 10.6.2, and was disappointed to find that PSE 8 is the only program I regularly use that doesn't support this feature. Any hope for this bug being fixed in future updates?

    Hi,
    I just checked on OS X 10.6.2 that PSE 8 is functional and support the Spaces feature. It is working for me.
    Are you observing any specific problem?
    Thanks,

  • I accidentally washed my iPod nano. Is there any hope for it?

    I stuck my iPod nano in my pocket, and yes, forgot to take it out before my sister washed our clothes. Right after it got washed, I plugged it in to my computer, and it did turn on, just with a little distortion on the screen. It has been about a month now though, and the iPod won't turn on at all, even when it is plugged in. But iTunes recongizes that the iPod is plugged in.
    Is there any hope for my iPod, or would it be better just to save for a new one?

    I think that when you turned it on after it was washed, that was the end. If it's been a month and won't turn on, I would assume it probably won't ever. Start saving your money. Apple has refurbished models that carry the same warranty as new units and they are $50 less. Check these out:

    What a colossally bad idea!  To anyone reading this thread DO NOT DO THIS!!!  Once anyone other than an Apple Authorized Service Provider (and that doesn't automatically mean your carrier, just FYI) opens up the device, then ALL options from Apple are gone, permanently.

  • Hello, I am running a Mac book pro soft. 10.5.8 version. Since june the current year I did not get any updates for the software or any kinds of other application, in my opinion that's weird for such a company.

    Hello, I am running a Mac book pro soft. 10.5.8 version. Since June the current year I did not get any updates for the software or any kinds of the other application, in my opinion that's weird for such a company.
    The problem that I have now is with the Iphone 5 which is not supported for the current Itunes and I can not download the Itunes 10.7 version. What I supposed to do in this case because I can not syncronize at all.
    Please give me a hand as soon as possible.
    Many thanks

    Mac OS X 10.5.8 is years old, 3 major versions out-of-date and unsupported at this point. You will never get any further updates for 10.5.8, and more and more applications will stop supporting 10.5.8 as time goes on. As mende1 points out, you can buy Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6), which will let you use your new iPhone with your computer, but you need to make sure your computer's hardware is supported. See the system requirements for Snow Leopard:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    If your computer cannot run Snow Leopard, you will need to either buy a new computer or abandon any thoughts of syncing the iPhone with that computer.
    Also, note that you'll get far better integration of your iPhone and your Mac if you're using Lion (Mac OS X 10.7) or Mountain Lion (Mac OS X 10.8), which are required to use iCloud. Of course, the requirements of those systems are even steeper than those of Snow Leopard:

  • I dropped my phone down the toilet and before I switched it off I sent a text. I have left it to dry out for the last 48hiurs. Is there any hope for my iPhone 5c?

    I dropped my phone down the toilet and before I switched it off I sent a text. I have left it to dry out for the last 48hiurs. Is there any hope for my iPhone 5c?

    Probably not. First of all, 48 hours is not enough. 5-7 days is better. Secondly, if you did not turn it off the very instant you retrieved it, it probably did worse damage. Even if it powers on, it's very unlikely it will function 100%.

  • Is there any hope for us here?

    I live in the Caribbean (Dominican Republic). I see the iPhone getting released in a lot of big countries, but I don't see Apple releasing the iPhone in other countries like mine.
    I have seen iPhones activated here, but as you know they are being ilegaly activated with the hacking options available, and with every new update the hacks get frustrated.
    Is there any hope for the iPhone being released in countries like mine here in the caribbean? What chances do you see for us here? Are we destined to live without the iPhone or with an hacked-outdated iPhone?

    The best thing to do is keep watching for announcements from Apple on when the iPhone will be coming to the Dominican Republic, since this is a user to user forum no one would be able to give you an answer.

  • My iPod Touch 4G just shut off one day while i was using tap to post. tried everything and nothing is working not even iTunes! Is there any hope for me? my iPod is my LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh by the way none of this happened until i updated to iOS 6.

    I have not had any experience in getting any devices repaired so I'm not sure which store to resort to. An official Apple store should more than likely get you what you need, but I'm guessing it's probably more expensive. (if any cost for your situation)
    I hope you get your problem resolved.
