K8N Neo4 Platinum with Athlon 3200+ wrong multiplier?

I've got a K8N Neo4 Platinum with an Athlon 3200+ processor that's supposed to run at 2.2GHz
With the memory running at 200MHz the maximum multiplier I can select is x10 which only gives me a CPU speed of 2GHz
Shouldn't there be a x11 multiplier available for this CPU or have I missed something obvious?
BIOS is 7125v12

Hi there. A 3200+ S939 is supposed to run at 2000MHz. The S745 runs on 2,2GHz, due to single channel memory.
Cheers!!
3000+ = 1,8 GHz
3200+ = 2,0 GHz
3500+ = 2,2 Ghz

K8n neo4 platinum with tagan 480 PSU NO SOUND from onboard realtek 850 :-( Help

I've hit a brick wall.
my sound card does not work and i have the amd 64bit 3500+ with msi-7125 version X.1.
Can anyone help as my next option is to go back to crapy yoyo tech who recommended and speced the solution knowing that there is an issue with the diamond model of the motherboard as you need -5 v for sound to work :-( nice!
I've tried triders from nvidia (forceware stuff) and got latest amd driver + msi live update.
Have not connected the front panel speaker connections either.
Thanks in advance peeps.

K8N Neo4 Platinum with 90nm San Diego 4000+

Hello everyone,
My first post here. Tomorrow I'm purchasing a K8N Neo4 Platinum MB (non SLI) and have requested the retail seller to get me a 90nm San Diego 4000+ instead of the older 130nm Clawhammer 4000+. Now, after reading through this forum it appears there may be a compatibility issue with the San Diego chip. Should I change to the Clawhammer or go ahead with the San Diego. I don't plan on OCing for a couple of months. What should I do?
Thanks!

I just fired up my K8n Neo4/sli with a 4000 rev.e chip last night, Bios is showing 3.0 and working like it should. Have it hooked to a Enermax 535 watt and One Evga 6800gt pci-e with the second card still in the box, I want to give it a good update and test before I bring the second card online, Cpu running at 35c with the side of under a Thermalright xp 90C Heatsink fan blowing down, want to test it fan blowing up next. Good luck it's a nice chip.
JJWOLD, thanks for the update, good news for me. I picked up the board last night, the rest of the stuff should be here next week. I'm going to load it with WinXP 64, which I know has limited driver support but I have three other computers so I'll just take it very slow on additional hardware and software installations. I may even use the integrated sound for now. By the way, did your board come with the 1394 cable and bracket?
Thanks!

K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI + athlon 64 3400+ ????

I want to know if someone has try to put a A64 3400+ on this board, does this CPU works on this board please ?

The Athlon 64 3400+ 939-pin processors are available in OEM versions only. So warranty coverage for the Athlon 64 3400+ 939-pin processors must be directed to the vendor and not to AMD... in addition the HyperTransport Link speed for the 3400+ is limited to 800MHz as opposed to the 3500+ speed of 1GHz.
The Athlon 64 3400+ 939-pin processor has technical specifications very similar to that of the Athlon 64 3500+ ... for this reason this processor on socket 939 its really hard to find...
better go for the athlon 3500!

You can use CD drivers (if needed to get connected to net) and update. because of the item on CD will be out dated

XP64bit installation halts, K8N Neo4 Platinum - No SATA drives found?

My setup:
Athlon 64 3500+
K8N Neo4 Platinum
2GB OCZ 3200 Premier
2) WD Sata 80GB HD's (for RAID 0)
Nvidia 6800GT Extreme VGA
I was recently lucky enough to get my hands on a real Windows XP Pro64bit Extended Edition. I gathered quite a few 64bit drivers which claim to do the job (so they say.)
However I ran into a very strange issue during installation.
My main concern was getting RAID drivers to utilize after pressing F6 during the Windows install. Unfortunately I could not find Nvidia drivers so I went with the Silicon Image Sil3114 64bit drivers I got from their website. Copied them to a disk and thought I was ready to rock N roll. I have updated all BIOS to latest versions as of the date of this post.
Now I went into the RAID BIOS and setup my RAID 0 Array and both SATA drives are shown. All went well in this dept.
I began my installtion of XP64 and pressed F6 to install the RAID drivers. Popped the floppy in and the driver files were copied successfully.
I continued on to the point where you are prompted to setup Windows XP and it searches for any previous installs.
I continue to where I should get the dislmaimer and to press F8, however the install halts and say no hard drives were found. Setup cannot continue.
Any ideas as to why my drives are not being detected during installation? They show up fine under the RAID setup BIOS.
Any info or thoughts is truly appreciated.

You need to make your own floppy for the nvidia 64 ide drivers.

K8N Neo4 Platinum Wont POST please help!!

ok, i built this pc about a month ago. everything has worked perfectly until yesterday. When i turn the power on, al i get is the Platinum Screen. I cant go into Bios, i cant Post.. The PC beeps once like normal, and the LED on the Motherboard and the videocard come on. Ive tried wiping the CMOS, Tried a different PSU, tried removing one of the memory sticks. I tried just connecting the Mobo, video card and harddrive, to see if it want getting enough power. Heres what ive got:
K8N Neo4 Platinum/SLI
Athlon 64 3500+
Geforce 6800 Gt
1 Gig corsair 3200 ram (2x512mb)
550 watt PSU

reset the bios, make sure its RESET.
then, try with just 1 stick ram first.
remember, to run dual for this board, it has to be Slot 1 & Slot 2.
If u follow the color, it'll be single channel instead.
Read also the instruction, it says never plug into 2nd or 4th slot with 1 stick ram.
Try with 1 stick ram. if it boots, then insert the 2nd into Slot 2. for dual channel.
i had similar prob few days back when newly purchased.
good luck !

No Post - K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI - any help would be awesome

Ok here it goes. I recently bought a K8N neo4 SLI and set everything up, hit the power button, and nothing happened. So i figured it was DOA and i sent it back. got another one, hooked it up and nothing happened. Tested the PSU and power switch on a different machine and they work fine. But with the K8N i have nothing, no fans, no lights, nada. I am a relatively experienced computer builder and haven't had this one happen to me yet. I've read every troubleshooting guide on the MSI site and i think everyone in the forums but the dang thing still won't turn on. Here the specs:
K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI
Athlon 64 3200+ 90nm
512 x 2 Geil Ultra Platinum DDR 533
Seagate SATA HD 7200 RPM 160 GB
Chaintech 6600GT
Ultra X-connect 500W with the 24-pin adapter
Got a bunch of other junk too but thats all thats hooked up now. just going for the bare minumums so i could at least get some response. Please give me some ideas of what could be causing this are maybe something dumb i forgot. I know my power suppply blows but i've seen others get it going with that and since i only have barebones hooked to it, i'd think it would go. Thanks in advance.

I had an interesting thing happen to me yesterday, that sounds exactly like your problem.
I'm looking for ways to reduce my gpu temps, so I'm playing around with case fans, round wiring, etc... One of the cables I replaced ran to one of my PCI-E cards. aparently it had a short or something in it. I spent hours trying to get my computer to start up again, I was afraid I had fryed the board....no power, no fans, tried a different power supply, etc..... One wire, well two, because it's one of those that takes two molex plugs and turns them into a Pci-e plug.
What a pain....
Chack your wires, check for a short. If you're having the same issue with a second mobo chances are it's not board related. Could be you have the srews attaching it to your case to tight and have shorted it out there.
Hope this helps.
Good luck!

K8N Neo4 Platinum, how to move MBR to sata (make it drive #1)?

I am not sure I am phrasing the question correctly, so bear with me. I have a K8N Neo4 platinum with the SiI3114 controller and sata ports 4-8 (I believe its what they are calling PCB 1.x) with bios v1.D. I moved the board to another box and installed winXP on it. I was running it with IDE hard drives. Everything was working great but the OS was running really slow so I bought a SATA 300 mb/s drive and pluged it into SATA1 (I read about using ports 3 and 4 for raid but I do not want to use the NVraid at all, it is disabled). Then I proceeded to reinstall win XP. In the setup, I deleted the original C partiton and created one on the sata drive and rebooted so that there would be no "C" drive confusion by the winxp setup (have had that problem before and this keeps it from happening). Went through the setup and the sata was correctly reported as "C". Told windows to install itself there but it told me that it needed to write to MBR on the old c drive but that, since I had deleted the partiton, it couldn't and had to format it. So I knew that something was wrong.
So I rebooted and disabled the ide bus that contained the old IDE drive and just left the CD ide bus enabled. WinXP installed fine with no complaints. Then it rebooted and I re-enabled the ide bus in the bios. It wouldn't boot into the partiton I just installed winxp on! To get it to boot, I had to use F11 (the bios boot menu) and select the sata drive. Went through the whole setup winXP thing and rebooted. Same problem, it wouldn't boot the sata drive. :(
As long as that ide bus with the old ide drive is enabled, it won't boot the sata drive! I have rearranged the boot order on the bios every way possible. I opened up the box and moved that ide chain with the old ide drive to the ide2 port and put the dvd drive on ide1. I made the old drive slave and the prior slave master. That didn't fix it either. How do I tell this motherboard that the 1st drive is the sata drive? How do I tell it the MBR should be there not on the old ide drive? How do I fix this? Thanks!

Thank you for your replies! Hans, thank you I will give it a go again doing full formats all the way. I usually use the full format when installing winXP but I did things in a different order than you instructed so I will definately try it.
Aicjofs, thank you, There are 3 hard drives in this system currently. There is the ide hard drive that used to be the "c" drive (a western digital 160gb ata133 7200rpm 8mb cache) and a second ide hard drive that is an extended partition with 1 logical drive with data on it (western digital 300gb ata133 7200rpm 8mb cache). Then there is a sata hard drive in sata1 port with 2 partitions one primary and one extended. The extended partion does have data on it as I moved stuff there after I got winXP up the 2nd time (western digital 250gb sata II 7200rpm 16mg cache). Right now, I have the ide drive with data on it as ide2 master and the old "c" drive as ide2 slave and it is unformatted and contains no partion information (I deleted the partition after I installed the SATA drive and installed winXP). XP won't boot. What happens is that, if I take the winxp cd out, it gives me a "no system" error. If I leave the WinXP cd in it boots that disk. However, if I use "f11" and choose to boot the sata drive, winxp comes up just fine. If I disable the ide bus with the two ide hard drives, it boots winxp just fine.
Edit: bios is v1.D. It feels like this mobo is telling windows setup that the master ide drive is the first disk and to ignore everything else. It feels like if I can just tell the mobo that the sata drive is the first disk then everything will work . It is late night where I am now, and I've been fighting with this since the afternoon so I might have to goto sleep but I will be back at it tomorrow and will go though what Hans instructed. If anyone has any otehr ideas, I'd really appreciate that as well.

K8N Neo4 Platinum Non-SLI

System Specs:
K8N Neo4 Platinum
AMD A64 3200+
1 Gig Kingston 333 Ram(2x512)
MSI Theater 550 Tuner
Hauppauge WinTV-500MCE
80 GB System Drive
200 GB Media Drive
MSI 6600GT PCIe
Windows MCE 2005, rollup 2
For some reason I can't get 5.1 out via either SPID/F interface(optical or coaxial). It was working before, so I don't know what I messed up, but here's the setup. This is set in my living room, with the SPID/F out going to a Sony Reciever for 5.1 decoding. Like I said, it used to work, I don't know what the issue is now.
Windows speaker configuration is set to 5.1 speakers, as is the MCE app. I also have the RealTek Manager app set with with the correct speaker layout, but I'm only getting stereo out now. The reciever I've isolated, and it isn't the problem. But like I said, it was working before, but now I'm at a loss. Any help will be appreciated.

Hello !!
First try to deinstall all sound drivers completly, then reinstall them. Make sure your 5.1 system works properly.
Make sure you have the right output mode selected. (analog / digital )

All that has been done and tried, and and done and tried againn, and then I broke a plate, and then done and tried again.

HELP ! CPU question on MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum/SLI Motherboard

Hello i've a simple Question : Does A64 3400+ S939 works on this board ?

Hi douglasp,
Things haven't changed since K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI + athlon 64 3400+ ????
There is no AMD64 3400 939 CPU - see AMD Athlon™ 64 Processor Model Numbers and Feature Comparison
754 CPu are single channel compatable withK8N Neo Platinum
939 CPu are Dual channel. compatable with K8N Neo4 Platinum
as someone said in previous thread it's probably a misprint.

SLI compatible NVidia cards on a K8N Neo4 Platinum

I have a K8N Neo4 Platinum with a 3500+ AMD64, is there any known problems with running the GeForce 7800GTX duel chip with 512Mb DDR3. I just wondered because it will be the first SLI complient graphics card I have purchased. Do you have to have a SLI chip setted NF4 board to run it?
Marc

first of all, i don't think there's a dual chip 7800 GTX 512 card out there. if you are talking about two single chip 7800 GTX 512, that is a different story. in that case yes, you need a SLI mobo, but that is not all. you need to have nforce4 sli chipset on it, because the sli mobos based on the nforce4 ultra are not enough you need a monster power supply cause those cards suck all the power from your average 450-500W PSU. i don't think that should be a problem for you, since you seem to be loaded with cash and can afford buying a new k8n diamond plus 2x16 sli mobo (2 x 7800GTX 512 = 1500 USD easy, if you can find them - alienware and monarch charge you in excess of 900 USD for each)
