K8T Neo FIS2R wont detect gfx card

Hi, im back again with a brand spankin new mobo (old one was faulty).
The problem this time is that it wont detect the gfx card. I've tried the Radeon 9800 and my GF4800Ti. Both work in my old reliable PC, but not in the one I'm building.
This means that when i turn on the comp, my screen wont acknowledge theres a signal coming to it.
Also a problem wih the power switch. The power switch turns it on, but wont turn it off :/.
Any troubleshooting tips anyone can give me? :(

Ok, take the RAM out and try to boot with the just the MB and CPU right after you have reset the CMOS. See if you get beeps. Also a couple of other things to suggest.
Have you checked the connections from the speaker inside the box to the front panel and then on to the MB? Also the connections from the power switch on the front panel likewise on to the MB?
Is posbible that its posting correctly, espceially without the video card, but you jst can't hear it.
Also I don't see that you ever tried to start up with a graphics card that you know works in another machine. Can you try that too?

MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R - Which slot sound card?.

Hi all,
I have a MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R and was wondering which slot to put my sound card in?.
At the mo it's in pci slot 4 i only have 3/4and 5 availible becuase of my arctic cooler on my rad 9800 pro.
The sound card is on IRQ 19 sharing with the IEE1394 host controller, i dont use firewire so could i disable it in the bios?.
Cheers all.

Hi
Should not make any differance, don't worry about the IRQ, let the comp sort it out, it knows whats where, better than humans do.
Any probs, disable the onboard sound. maybe change PCI slot, but there should not be.
cheers

K8T Neo-FIS2R wont copy drivers...

Hi all i ahve been looking through the forums for a long time now. I can find anyone with the exact problem as me. I will list my specs first.

ATI RADEON 9800PRO Video Card, 128MB DDR, 256-bit, DVI/TV-Out, 8X AGP
Aspire 520W 12V Black Triple Fan Aluminum Power Supply
Okay heres the problem. I run the windows XP pro sp2 install cd and then i get to the screen were you press S. That works and it gives me a list and i pick the first XP one on the list. Then i press enter and it starts loading the files. At a certain point when it starts the windows setup it says that it cannot copy the following files; VIAMRAID.SYS, VIAMRAID.cat, and VIAMRAID.inf so i use the skip option. The computer runs through the copys the rest of the stuff fine then restarts like it should. When it gets to the windows loading screen it gives me a blue screen error about the HDD or something. Now i have no clue whats wrong with it there is no reason that it should not work.

Does your cable have the crossover wires to end connector, use the end of cable connector, maybe try another floppy cable, if it does use read or boot from a win98 startup disk, then it is the floppy drive or cable. Could of course be bad floppies, but not usual if you are trying several differant ones ( unless they have been beside a magnetic sourde, like telephone). I would try another cable, then another floppy drive. One or other should fix it, as your bios settings appear good.
Is the floppy shown on first page in bios setup - Standard Cmos Features.

MSI sent me the v1.93 bios. I updated my MOBO. Now heres one question since this seagate is new and everything else is. Should i have done a full format on the HDD instead of a quick before i tried installing it. My friend is saying thats what i should have been doing instead of the quick format for partitioning.
I update ya on whats going on. Well the new bios didnt change anything. I also did full format on the HDD dudring the windows setup. It took forever to finish the format. Even after the full format it still didnt work.. I tested jockos cable theory and it did not work. And my floppy drive is show as floppy A

Msi k8t neo fis2r wont post plz help

I recently updated my bios for the motherboard, and now I can't get the pc to post. Before I had the pc going but it kept getting gpfs and crashing to the desktop from games..
I was having problems with it not wanting to post before but I raised the voltage to my ram and fixed that, the problem is that when the bios got wiped from the upgrade it lowered the voltage on the ram..now i just cant get it to post at all..if anyone has any suggestions on how to get this powered up so i can change the voltage again please let me know
I am only using one ram chip...
my specs are
athlon 64 3000+
512mb mushkin special
sapphire radeon 9800 pro
msi k8t neo fis2r mboard
antec 430 watt 12v - 20a
i cant afford a new psu and i know this one is ok as my friend tested it in his identical system for 24 hours ..
my mboard just seems to refuse to post ..i upgraded my bios and the voltage dropped because the update sets the defaults back to default..
after i upgraded the bios, it posted once, i was in the bios and i saved some settings and restarted..i was going to go back and up the voltage on the ram again so that it would post (i had solved my problem similar to this earlier by upping the ram voltage to 2.75) but it was too late and after it shutdown it wouldnt turn back on
also, ive tried all 3 ram slots with the chip, and ive cleared the cmos with the jumper 3 times..

your complete specs may help .. if running two sticks of ram you could remove one stick ... you could also reset the bios using the clear CMOS jumper .. but without more detailed specs ppl will struggle to help you

MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R Trying to add card for internal firewire header

Tiresmoke and anyone else who can help.
Maybe you remember me I have the above board and couldnt get it to recognize my Sata drive. Well I got an RMI and sent it in for repairs. Apparently there was something wrong with it because it works like a champ now.
Now I have a new problem with it.
My new case has a front firewire plug that is wired with an internal header type plug. This MB doesnt have a header for it. I also need any extra USB internal header for my floppy card reader, the 2 that are on the MB are being used by the "D" bracket and my front USB jacks, so I bought a card from New Egg that had both. The card is a "PCI Multimedia combo card" #15-107-112 from Link-Depot.com. I cant get this card installed. Instructions say it should find the drivers on my XP Pro disk with service pack 2. When I boot windows finds new hardware but cannot find the proper drivers. IVe tried leading it to the XP disk but know luck.
The manual says I need to install three types of drivers before the combo card will function properly.
1. 1394 Bus Controller driver
2. ALiPCI to USB Open Host Controller driver
3. ALiPCI to USB Enhanced Host Controller driver
It says the card is compliant to IEEE 1394 Open HCI specs.
Before the card was installed Device Mgr. said there was a VIA OHCI Compliant IEEE 11394 Host controller installed(There were no Yellow or red symbols on it)
Under Universal Serial Bus Controllers there are several lines:
Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller
6 USB Root Hubs
4 VIA revision 5 or later USB Universal Host Controllers
VIA USB Enhanced Controller
So now I wondering if somehow these devices from the Motherboard are causing confusion with installing the card.
Can anyone help me out here?
Thanks !!

Thanx for the reply. I figured I could drop the D bracket but that still doesnt get me the internal firewire header. This card has a std firewire jack like on the back ot the computer so I had to buy a converter cable to go from the header pin plug to the std firewire plug. Heres the link to the card I bought.

Why cant I get this card to install is still my problem.

K8t neo fis2r - core center not functional after installing sound card

Hi. I had been using Core Center with Dynamic Overclocking enabled and all was well. When idle, my amd64 3000+ (2.0ghz), was running at 800mhz. Under load it would go up to 2100mhz. But yesterday, I installed an Auzentech x-plosion sound card and after i installed the driver, the dynamic overclocking stopped working, my cpu is running at max all the time. (The variable fan speed function still works).
I checked the IRQ and there is no conflict, I uninstalled the amd64 driver and core center and reinstalled. Still does not work. I uninstalled the auzentech driver, rebooted, and cancelled new hardware wizard. Then the variable cpu frequency feature worked. Once I install the driver for the auzentech, dynamic oc stops working. I was thinking to try another pci slot but it appears to be a software issue rather than a hardware issue. The new version of Core Center does not work with my board even though msi says it's compatible so I'm still using the one that always worked. The amd driver is the latest and also always worked.
Has anyone else had a similar problem, perhaps using the auzentech sound card with this board and Core Center? Or does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hey guys, I just went to AMDs site to get the dashboard utility mentioned and in the readme, it stated that in XP, the power option needs to be set to portable/laptop. But in the past, I read that it needed to be set to "always on" and that it is, in fact, what I had it set to before when cool n quiet was working. Now I change it to "portable/laptop" and it works and set to "always on" doesn't work anymore. So now Core Center reports I'm at 33c @800mhz at no load. I don't get it??? I'll have to try an alternate utility just to verify that is indeed working.
btw, QV, I checked system properties, (right-click my computer > properties, or "system" in control panel) and on the "general" tab, it indicates an AMD64 3000+, 2.0GHz. But I'm pretty certain the clock frequency is dropping now as reported by core center because of the decrease in the cpu temp at idle. Am I looking in the right place in XP? I have XP pro, SP2
Again, thanks for the input and Happy New Year

Black screen when sound card is added...K8T Neo FIS2R

As the subject line says:
I am trying to install a sound card, a trusty Creative Labs Audigy and in ANY pci slot get a black screen upon boot up, no beep!
I deleted the onboard video drivers, went to Bios and disabled the realtek alc97...
In the farthest pci slot from the AGP slot I have a LAN card that works fine, but for some reason the sound card just doesn't want my PC to boot IN any slot...Any ideas? I did a search but found nothing that would help at this point.

6600GT not working with K8T neo-FIS2R

I recently returned a K8T NEO-FIS2R MB for repair. The problem was that the PS/2 and USB ports were broken. However the MB has been returned and the PS/2 and USB ports work fine. I posted about this several months ago.
Now the AGP port seems to be broken (not the actual slot). I have tried a 6800 Ultra and a 6600 GT (AGP version) GFX card in this slot. Both cards fail at the driver installation point. I have tried driver versions 66.93, 67.02 and 67.03. I also tried 3 versions of the via drivers 451, 453 and 455. Even tried XP with SP1 and SP2. The PC will sometimes BSOD, reset, won't boot into windows. The drivers sometimes install then other times they won't, etc. The problems only seem to be with the drivers for the GFX cards.
The 6600 GT works as I have tried it in another MB without any problems.
I know the memory works fine as I used memtest86+ for a couple of hours on the default settings without any errors and it works in another PC.
The spec of the PC is:
XP pro
K8T NEO-FIS2R MB
512MB corsair XMS at 2.5-3-7-3
XFX 6600GT
40gig HDD
FDD
Plextor CD writer
DVD Rom
PSU is a Q-tec 550W
I know Q-tec PSUs are not up to much from what I have read elsewhere in this forum, but I have had it running in a similar system with the 6800 Ultra installed without any trouble (even with the above MB before it went faulty). I have also tried a 400W PSU, that came with the case. The Voltages on the 12V line are between 12.00 and 12.03 when using the Q-tec PSU.
Has any body else had these problems with the 6600GT in the mentioned MB.
Also, how can I check the serial number on the MB with the label on the box, as this MB that was returned to me looks to “clean” to be the one I sent away for repair.
Thanks for any help

Hey, I'm glad to see a post on the new Gforce 6600GT AGP card. I just recently put together a brand new system (see my sig for specs). System runs great. The only thing I wanted to do was replace the video card, and after a great deal of anxiety I decided the Geforce 6600GT AGP was the best bang for the buck.
Well I got home, installed the card and never get passed the bios screen. (shows your processor, memory, memory siz), the screen u hit DEL to go into the bios.
The system doens't lock up, NUM LOCK can still be turned on and off, and CAPS can be turned of and on... but thats it. Just sits on that screen. I can't go into the bios either.
what settings do I need to do prior to isntalling this card to get it to work.
Let me know if you all need anymore details to help me out.
oh, I did reset my frequency to 10x200 (which is what I think the 3000+ is supposed to be at).

Basically the same as above i just changed the cou and mobo now when the graphics card is in that system it works fine no problems as soon as i try it in the new a64 system it doesnt work the fan doesnt spin and nothing comes on screen, ive tried everything i know ive double and trebble checked connections and ive tried removing components and then trying it, no matter what the graphics wont work.
I figured the motherbaord must be faulty and am going to contact the place i got it from but it would be good if anyone here knows how to solve it if it isnt the motherboards fault.
thanks very much.

8X capability of K8T Neo FIS2R

Hi Everyone,
This is probably an embarrasingly easy question for you guys to answer but my question is, now that I have my newly built machine up and running will the MoBo automatically detect the AGP 8X capability of my card or do I have to fiddle around in the Bios in some way
Card Radeon Sapphire X800 Pro
MoBO K8T Neo FIS2R
Thats it!
Cudham

Hi,
No sweat mate, it would be more imbarrasing if you would have gotten it wrong
It will detect it automaticly as 8x.
Merry christmas !!!

MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R - help please :(

When i first got this board + my Athlon 64bit 3200+ I just left everything in bios at default, and counter-strike bullet registration was amazing, the FSB clock said 133, (no i did not imagine this as ive had two of these boards and they both said 133fsb when i went to bios).... one day my p.c wouldnt boot up, i did a series of tests and couldnt find what was wrong, i eventaully reset cmos and still it would not boot up properly. So i got a new harddrive and that seemed to solve the problem, only this time when i went to bios instead of the FSB saying 100-280, it said 190-280, now counter-strike bullet reg has totally gone and plays like , oh sure good frames per second but it doesnt feel instant, i want 133fsb back quite desperately, i was hoping one of you kind people could tell me if theres fsb jumpers on my board or how i can get 133fsb back, wont let me below 190 at the moment :(
Thanks

below are my specs,similar to yours. the issue is in the audigy card .. remove it , try a different card ( live ) if some one can resolve this please let me know too..
I have a problem ,when ever I boot my system hangs ( at sound card) ,if I power down and reboot a few seconds later its fine.if I leave it running its fine,only on a cold start. if I remove my audigy card this problem goes away, I can use other cards ,but not the audigy, did you ever have this issue ,or know any one who has had an irq issue like this( I think its in the irq) ...............

Onboard 5.1 sound noisy - K8T Neo FIS2R

Hi guys, i'm new here.
Well, i got a K8T Neo FIS2R and the 5.1 sound is noisy. I've tried many different drivers, replaced my 5.1 speakers for new ones and it doesn't work properly at all. I've been using a 2.1 system and it works just fine. Has anyone seen this problem? any advice?
Thanks in advance
Kein

LOL OK you can save us time by replying to that end the next time. Thanks.
I know it may seem trivial but I can't count how many times a suggestion was assumed to have been tried and it turned out to be the fix in the end. So if we seem grouchy about getting a reply remember that we aren't the only one's that waste time chasing stuff when no one let's us know what they have tested.
OK back to your problem. There are no magic buttons to push. If you have tried other speakers and drivers then it is likely something on the MB that is causing the problem. It could be a power line somewhere close to a chip or connection, it could be a bad ground. If you have a Sound card handy you could also check it to see if the problem goes away. Otherwise you may have to RMA it.

Msi k8t neo fis2r problems part 3

sometimes when the computer is turned on it just turns the fans and leds on but doesnt boot up...
most of the time it loads up and i boot to the windows xp cd and i install the drivers for sata and then when it reaches the point of copying the files it will give me a bsod and say that there is a problem with the irql driver and then force me to shut the pc down..
sometimes it makes it past that and will begin to copy files onto the hard drive, like somehow the data is becoming corrupted..however it will start to say that the files cant copy randomly and it will allow me to retry..they will copy the 2nd time usually..i can keep hitting retry and it will usually go by..it gets to 30 something % and then crashes to bsod just giving me some random error..for some reason the files keep screwing up that go on the sata drive....I just replaced the old power supply that wasnt working with an antec true watt 430 watt power supply, so i know it isnt that..
i just cant figure out what the heck is going on..any help would be appreciated.my specs are

fyi look an your cd sticker ity will show power, consumption, but they are way lower than you would think, hard drives,can be only 10 watts, less then some case lights , and fans, cd are similar.. your video, is the biggy somewhere between 90~150 watts..yikes .next to the cpu..and the mobo can use 50 or so (not sure about new mobos) not to mention the ram 1024 is @40 watts or so., dont forget about 25watts per pci card, not counting the sound card which can be double....
ergo the need for a big psu..
the combined total ratting on a psu is not the max number that the psu is rated, that is surge value.. so a 500 may only hold 400 sustained , and that will drop as the machine heats up, so in the end your 500 may onlyy pull 366 @50'c...

Fastest CPU K8T Neo-FIS2R?

Until I build my next box, I was going to try and pry a little more life out of the old one! Just bought a new vid card (thanks to suggestions from you guys!), and I was thinking of getting more RAM, and possibly a faster CPU as well.
I already have some good ideas on the RAM front, but what's the fastest CPU that'll work with the K8T Neo-FIS2R?

Here is the link to the cpu support page.

Will Gainward 6800GT fit my MSI K8T NEO FIS2R?

Horror picture on a ABIT NF7-S
I saw this picture and saw that the card i extremely long!
Anyone here on the forum that can guarantee that my Gainward 6800GT card (with a red gainward cooler) will fit on my MSI K8T NEO FIS2R?
MSI K8T NEO FIS2R
Please?

I think I have found out the problem
Using my old Enermax (350) I was able to boot up the AMD 64 2800 every time but the PSU made this weird electrical sound - I think because it was being overloaded (I think as it doesn't make this sound when used with my XP 1800). I then reverted back to my new X-Pro (460w) and after a few attempts I managed to get the ram module and CPU powered... slowly adding more fans it became harder to boot and eventually the GPU fan wouldn't run once I plugged another fan in... I'm guessing this is because my PSU is too weak to power the juice guzzling AMD
I'll need to break the bank once again I suppose
