K8ngm2 no video after running fine - same problem twice already

I recently bought a new MSI K8NGM2 and an AMD 3200+ Athlon 64. I assembled the thing last week and it was up and running fine until about friday when there was a blackout. When I attempted to turn on the PC it had no video and the PC Speaker sounded like a lot of static. I quickly tried to "discharge" by unplugging the power cord and holding the power button. I also tried reseating everything. After all those attempts I removed the Motherboard and RMA'd it.
Fast forward today, I installed the new one and it was up and running for a few hours. I left it on while it was updating Windows. When i go to his room i find out that his pc is on the startup memory/cpu/hard disk detection screen and it has "jaggies" / weird discolored pixels all over or something similar to what happens when a vid card Fan stops working. I restart it and it has no video. I'm convinced that its the motherboard again (he uses the onboard Geforce 6100 as video). Like the previous time, there were no beeps or so at start up.
What could cause this though? It has happened in two different occasions with the same brand new board. Any ideas?

Oops sorry it was 25. BTW what do you mean my PSU blowing things up? I thought it was working fine.
i had a friend whose psu kept blowing mobo's up. we got one rma'd, put the new one in and it wouldnt work. thinking it was a bad rma we sent it back in.
the next time we got one we did the same thing and got nothing... back to rma. the next one we got we tried it in another machine and it worked.
We were about to put it back in his machine, when i thought of changing the psu, just in case, u know out of the blue thing! it worked okay.
How did we find out it was the psu? I tried the psu in another machine and it failed to work after that...

    after backup, TM cannot eject itself automatically, and then both my mac and TM get high temperature. why is that, I had the same problem twice. I re-start my mac, it doesn't work at tall, still the same problem.

    Are you saying, right now that the TM refuses to work even after a re-boot?

  • Adobe slowed down after running fine on a Mac Book Pro Photoshop settings have been reset

    adobe slowed down after running fine on a Mac Book Pro.   Adobe Settings have been Reset

    Hello Gener7,
         I did try everything on the FAQ page (all steps) I also did them a few more times with "Adobe help" walking me through 2 more times.  I just don't get it, I have been on with Adobe on some days up to 5 hours at a time for over a month now.  I think it must be something with the installation disc but they say no, no, switchboard is just not working on my OS X 10.9.4.  I even took the computer into the apple store here and had them look it over, reinstall everything and they say it's the Adobe software.
         Thank you very much for your help, it's nice to know someone is reading this :-)  I do work around this by saving the files and reopening them in the next program I need but everyone in class is always waiting on me, (it sucks) and I just think it should work.  Hope you have a good day and I will put an update on here if this is ever figured out.
    Thanks one more time :-)

  • GPIB not responding after running fine in vb6 app.

    Hello, I am writing a program using vb6 and gpib interfacing an hp4142 voltage source/monitor and a keithly 707 matrix. The Program runs fine for a while and then ibspy shows EDVR(0) on all the commands. It is almost like the board is timing out. I access the instruments using ibdev.

    Hi,
    EDRV refers to a low-level driver error. Usually the driver cannot get a hold of some system resource. A system call failed. The OS-specific error code is placed in ibcnt.

  • Running the same VI twice

    I am trying to run to same main VI twice simultaneously. I do not want the two main VIs to share information. They need to run totally independantly. I have copied the original VI and all SubVIs to a new directory, but when I load the second main VI it shares subVIs with the first main VI. How can I avoid this? I want them to run totally independantly.

    I think your problem is that you're trying to open VIs with the same name. LV can only hold one VI of a given name in memory at one time, so if you want the VIs to be completely different, you will need to rename all of them.
    Another option would be to make all of them reentrant. This will mean that each place you call the VI will hold a seperate copy of the VI. You should make sure this doesn't affect the way your code works (for example, if you have a functional global, it will be affected by this).
    I think the easiest way would be to make an EXE and then copy it and rename it. I believe that when running in the run time engine, you get seperate execution for each EXE, but I'm not at all sure of this, so you should check it.
    If this isn't so, you can try merging the first two options.

  • Problems with upgrading to imovie4 after running fine with imovie3

    I have a friend who works with imovie 3. She has a iMac flat screen 800mhz with 512mb ram. She has made about nine movies using imovie3 and everything was working fine. She then tried to upgrade to iMovie4 (I know dont fix it if aint broke) and now her movies are all choppy, if you try to run the whole movie. It is fine however if you run a couple three frames at a time. It is almost like it gets overwelmed and starts and stops. We tried going back to imovie3 with no success (this was after a format/ reinstall of her osx 10.3).
    I tried these movies on my machine (mac mini 1.5ghz with 512mb ram) using imovie 4 and they seem to run almost flawlessly). Can someone please shed some light on this as I am clueless on how to move forward.
    Thanks ahead for your much needed help.

  • Weird movement after keyframing the same thing twice

    If I make a keyframe for an object to enter the frame from the left, then want to have the same object leave the frame, FCP X creates extra movement on the image in between keyframes. Is there some way I can turn this correction off, or is there something I can do to avoid this?

    Go to that keyframe, right-click it in the Canvas, change it to Linear.

  • K8N Neo 2 - Same problems after 3 motherboards!

    I'm having serious problems here...please help 
    I bought the K8N Neo 2 and keep having the same problems over and over.  I'll build the computer and everything will be running fine, no problems with POST or anything.  It'll run great for a day or two then....I'll go to power it on the next day and it'll start up, then suddently turn off and won't boot up ever again.  This has happend 3 times with this board after I've returned and RMA'd the previous 2.
    But, today I found a work around.  What I did since it wasn't booting up was remove the power connector from the board, then hold the power button down and replug the power connector back in.  It then powers up fine, but I have to hit the power button again in order for it to boot.  If I turn the computer off it won't boot up normally again.  I can't imagine having to do this everytime to turn the damn thing on.
    Here are my specs:
    MSI K8N Neo 2 Platinum
    Athlon 64 3000
    2 x 512 Corsair Value Select
    Antec True 380w  +5V 35a +12V 24a +3.3 28a
    XFX 6600GT
    NEC DVDR 2500A
    WD Raptor 74gig
    WD 80gig SE
    I can't think of what's causing the same problem over and over again.  This is by far the most frustrating motherboard I've ever worked with.  Am I screwed with the board that I have now, or should I return it again...
    Please help!

    Checking your P/S is always a good idea.  But I can tell you that the power on/off functions of the K8N Neo2 Platinum are whacked.  I just installed my new K8N Neo2 and the motherboard refuses to power down from either windows or the front power switch after it is turned on.  This is the first MSI m/b I've owned that exihibits this behavior.  Have done many custom builds for customers using MSI boards - clear back to the K7 series.  My normal install procedure is to install m/b, all drives, memory, video card and connect power.  Immediately after I power the system "on" and check for fan operation and d-bracket error codes.  If all comes out ok, I power the board down (via the front panel switch).  OOPs, guess what, couldn't do that on this new m/b.  I should have known it was a problem right then.  Instead, went ahead and installed XP Pro, problem persist even yet.  Press the front power switch or soft exit from Windows, Windows shuts down, but motherboard doesn't.  Fans, video card, even hard drives keep powered up

  • My 2011 MacBook Pro does not start and stop after the apple appear, they said that the problem is a video problem and need to change the logic board. Cost almost same to buy a new one. Somebody have the same problem?

    I have a MacBook Pro early 2011. Does not start. After the apple show, a blank screen appear. The service said that the problem is with the video plaquue in the logic board. Need to change. Cost lmmost the same than a new MacBook Pro. Somebody has the same problem? What we can do?

    I hate to break this to you, but life isn't fair. If your job is that critically in need of a computer, then you should have a spare to use for just this kind of situation or have your employer provide you with a computer to use.
    Computers break down, just like cars. If your car breaks down do you curse the car maker or get it fixed? Surely, you paid more for your car than the computer.
    This is reality. Best get used to it because it won't get any better.
