K8T Neo-V 2.0 (MS-7144) won't boot - help diagnosing plz

Well, here is the case. I just bought a K8T Neo-V 2.0 (MS-7144) with a Sempron 2800+ Palermo. When I power on I it just starts beeping long beeps endlessly. Fans are all working, but no signal on the monitor. Tried with 2 different agp cards and 1 pci card, and 2 different blocks of PC3200 memory. Whatever the combination same result. The PSU is a 350W with 13A on the 12V. The manual says that only Sempron 3100+ is supported but MSIs website states that all Sempron should be able to run. In fact I have seen bundles being sold with this exact combination. Anybody knows anything about what could be the problem?

I guess I will try the setup with another PSU then, to see if that solves the problem. What amperage am I looking for? A minimum of 20A on the 12V rail?
depend of your hardware configuration. look to be a single rail with high amperes on +12V.

  • K8T Neo F1S2R No Longer Boots - Help Diagnosing

    Hello,
    I've had good service from my K8T Neo Athlon 64 mobo for 2 years. Today when I turned on the PC, all the fans cranked up and nothing more. The four test LEDs stayed red. No beeps, no display to the monitor. The light on one CD drive (I have 2) and the HD light come on solid at power up. According to the manual, four red LEDs at power up indicates a bad processor or processor connection and nothing more.
    I removed my Audigy sound card since I know it has been known to cause boot-up problems on these boards. Still no boot.
    What I need to know is if this is most likely a bad processor as stated in the manual, or something else like a bad mobo or power supply (Enermax). I don't have a spare processor, 64 bit PC, nor power supply to swap and check, so I need to know what is the best step process to resolving the problem. I'd just hate to go out and buy a new processor to find out the problem isn't the processor.
    Thanks!

    UPDATE: Kudos to MSI support! I RMAed my original failed, over 2 year old K8T NEO via the MSI online support system. Shipped the K8T back to MSI on 4/11 and received a replacement on 4/26. It took only 11 business days, east coast to west coast and back.
    I was having stability issues with the new K8MM-V motherboard described here https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=95656.0
    in that I was unable to run my Radeon 9800 Pro at "full" hardware acceleration without crashes. I could only get stability using the onboard graphics or setting the Radeon 9800 to "low" hardware acceleration (the setting next to "none").
    Pulled out the K8MM-V and installed the warranty replacement K8T NEO. The replacement K8T booted flawless, only requiring reinstallation of the Radeon 9800 Pro's Omega drivers on the first boot. I've had flawless performance with hardware graphics acceleration set at "full" with no reboots or blackouts since.
    It was easy as pie to execute warranty service with MSI.
    A big thank you to MSI for their fine support and for providing this forum....and a just as big thank you to all the fine folks here for offerering their expertise and help to us novices.

  • K8N Neo Platinum failed 2.1 flash won't boot

    Hello, I was using livesupport and it said there was a bios update for my mainboard(MSI K8N Neo PLatinum) I went through the process like I have before and it said it had an error flashing. When I restarted my computer it would be on for about 10 seconds and shut off. It says for those 5-10 seconds
    Award Bios v 1.0
    Bios Checksum Error
    No Keyboard Present
    Insert Disk Press Enter
    I have put disks in but nothing happens, I have tried clearing the CMOS(with jumper) but I see no change. If I put in a disk it seems to read it but shuts off after 10 seconds none the less.  The LED diagnostic show two red on top folled by two green beneath.  I know I should never have used the windows flash tool, but I've never had a problem with it before.....  Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hello !
    Quote
    i think that should work. it looks like the bios can still read disks, so its worth a try.
    ....but the flashing procedure will take longer than 10sec.....so there is no big chance to get this done.
    But you can try it. Just download the File attached, it will create a Boot Disc. Then copy your Bios Bin-file (w7030nms.150) to the floppy disc and rename it to "Bios.bin".
    Good Luck

  • My PowerBook Won't Boot---Help

    hey
    I had this problem for more then a year then 2 days ago I was able to start it in safe mood witch I never tried before. I was planning on not turning it off but it got stuck. Now it sometimes dose not even show the small loading fan under the apple or takes a long time to show or does not show the apple at all and only a while screen or it turns white after the apple sits there for a while. I rested the PRAM(my sound was not working), But nothing. I don’t have the CD that erase or restores the computer they both broke a while ago. Any info or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    please reply thanks you

    If you contact Apple support, they will sell you a new set of CDs for your system, for maybe $50?. They would be handy, for example, to run the Apple hardware test, which might provide some indication of what's causing your problem, if it's hardware-related.
    If you haven't already, you might read this Apple article on steps to take for a system that won't start up: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=50959

  • My iMac won't boot - help!

    I have a PowerPC iMac G5.
    It froze up with the fan running high and I did a hard restart.
    After that it would stop booting on the blue screen following the grey apple.
    I followed the many suggestions on these boards and in knowledge base including:
    -reset PRAM
    -reset login and windowserver after command +s startup
    -tried safe mode - it won't start in it
    -ran fsck after command +s startup (says it can't fix after 3 attempts)
    -tried to reinstall with original disk, but it freezes when it gets to "preparing the disk"
    -ran disk utility off the menu in installation CD boot, repair permissions worked, repair disk returned an error that it could not repair because "underlying task report, failure on exit"
    -I can start up as a target drive and gain firewire access from by MacBook, all hard drive files appear to be fine
    -tried safe mode again, again it gets to "starting Mac OS X. . ." and just sits there
    What is the "underlying task report"? What can I do to fix it?
    Is saving my essential files to my MacBook via firewire and then completely erasing the hard drive and performing a re-install of Tiger do me any good?

    Is saving my essential files to my MacBook via firewire and then completely erasing the hard drive and performing a re-install of Tiger do me any good?
    Welcome to Discussions SNW - it's a good idea to do just that, if the reinstall goes well, then you know it was not a failed HD, but probably a couple of bad sectors which the reinstall will take care of. If it doesn't work, then you probably need a new HD, they are relatively inexpensive and easy to install (as long as you don't have an iMac).

  • Macbook Pro on 10.6.8 won't boot, Help!

    I have a 2007 Macbook Pro 2.4ghz Core 2 Duo with 4 gigs of Ram that was running just fine until I left for a weekend away.  When I got home and tried to boot it up it gave me the "universal stop sign" circle with line thru it and wouldn't boot past that screen.  I had problems with the Ram going bad before so I tried putting the stock Ram in it but nothing different happened.  I tried rebooting my pram and also booting in safe mode, none of which worked.  I had a disk of 10.6.3 and am able to boot from that.  I went to disk utility from the DVD which when I tried to verify it it said that I had an issue that needed to be repaired.  I ran the repairs and while it said it fixed them when I verify it again it still says that It needs to be repaired.  So basically i've come to the conclusion that I either need to erase my harddrive and reinstall or maybe someone from this forum can help. 
    If I need to reinstall I guess thats what i'll have to do but my questions are as follows:
    1.  Since I have the DVD of  10.6.3 do I need to do a fresh reinstall of that and then do all the system updates to get me back to 10.6.8 BEFORE I do my Time Machine restore?  Or can I restore from Time Machine when its still at 10.6.3?
    2.  If I restore from Timemachine will it also restore all my Apps?  Or do I need to reinstall them from my disks and the things I purchased from the internet? (I hope not!!)
    3.  I noticed an option when I booted from 10.6.3 DVD that you can restore from a Time machine backup... will that fix the issues that my computer is having with trying to boot up or not?  If I try this option and it doesn't work is that going to mess up my Time Machine backup or will it not effect that? 
    Sorry for all the questions but I hope someone can enlighten me on these issues.  Thanks

    Just to add a little more info to the story I had upgraded my Hard drive from a 5400 RPM 250gig model that came with the computer to one that was made by Seagate and installed in 2011, 7200 RPM 750 gigs.  Is it normal to fail after not even 2 years?
    When I try to repair the Disk using Disk Repair I get the Error Message "Invalid content in Journal."  Can anyone enlighten me to what this means?  Trying to repair the disk does not resolve this issue.
    Also trying to start in single user mode and run fsck failed and I got a bunch of error messages that ran on a continuous loop. 

  • MBP crash during 10.4.11 update, KERNEL PANIC, WON'T BOOT, HELP.

    Attempted update to 10.4.11 via Software Update. Machine crashed (screen went black, nothing made the machine responsive). Forced power down, powered back up, "need to restart computer". Great.
    Disk Warrior rebuild, permissions repair, restart, KERNEL PANIC. Boot from OSX install disc and am greeted with "unable to install software on this computer" giving two options to restart or select startup disk. No matter, ran disk utility, repaired disk, repaired permissions, restart via Macintosh HD, KERNEL PANIC!!!!!!!!!!! UGH.
    Now what?? I can use target disk mode to backup contents of computer to another but I really don't want to go to the extent of reinstalling OSX and reloading my data to the machine from the backup. Any ideas? Need to figure this out before tomorrow, any help is appreciated.

    Assuming this doesn't resolve the issue, what's the procedure for reinstalling OSX AND keeping my data intact? Can backup everything using target disk mode, just don't know how to re-load it once reinstalled.
    Or even if there's a way to reinstall OSX without having to backup the data and re-load it. Thanks

  • OSX 10.4 won't boot-HELP!

    Installed 10.4 family pack on G4/400 Sawtooth running 10.3.9 perfectly. Would not boot after install restarted. Gray screen, spinner, and "Ban The..." symbol (Circle and bar} replace Apple logo. Was able to restart via button. Upgraded to 10.4.5 etc. and operated normally last night.
    This morning, again will not boot, cannot restart, gray screen, spinner, and circle/bar.
    Any ideas? Second drive does have OS 9.2 for running Clssic apps.
    G$ Mac OS X (10.4.5)

    The first thing you should do is get an external firewire hard drive that is empty and run Prosoft Data Rescue on the internal drive to recover as much information as possible. Next after that you could try an Archive and Install, or get Alsoft Disk Warrior 3.0.3 to see if it can fix your problem. Note when Archive and Installing an older operating system over a newer one, do not open any applications until you have brought the operating system back to the version it was at with the combo updaters. I've made a link to all the combo updaters here:

  • Dual 2.0GHZ won't boot, help?

    I have a Power Mac G5 Dual 2GHZ, I believe the first late 2004 model. It had 3.5GB's of RAM and an older model Apple Cinema display.
    The problem is, is it just wont boot up. I turn the power on, the screen remains blank and the light flashes on the computer 3 times. I consulted the manual and it says that if the light flashes 3 times, the RAM is incompatible. However I took out all 8 sticks of RAM and tried each pair for a boot, but none of the pairs would but and I received the same 3 flashes. I should also add I tried resetting the PMU and it didn't solve the issue. It doesn't boot so resetting the PRAM also is a no go.
    Everything powers on properly, so I'm don't think its the PSU, unless you know different. I'm not sure if all my RAM has died, if its the Power Supply or Perhaps the logical board has failed? Or maybe something else?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

    Any idea what might be charged to have someone to replace motherboard?
    I'm having the above problems starting shortly after I installed Leopard. The Mac is unusable now and in the shop. I became concerned though after the Apple authorized Tech guy gave my machine a 20 minute lookover and didn't have a clue. Talk of motherboards and power supplies came up. I know both are expensive not counting labor.
    I bought a used 2.7 ghz. G5 this morning. Maybe it's premature but at least I get a better machine that will be working, here in a few days.
    I'm out cash but I struggled for days trying to figure my Macs problems out. The nightmare is over. For now...

  • Cannot re-boot after enabling K8T Neo LAN Connection

    I've tried to enable the K8T Neo LAN controller in BIOS so that I can connect a Wireless Router to my PC. However, when I do this, the PC will not boot and I have to disable the LAN controller.
    On booting-up the BIOS seems to be looking for an ethernet controller and a message states that either the device is not plugged in or the cable is faulty ! Why should enabling the onboard LAN controller affect the device the BIOS boots from ?
    Can I plug a Wireless Router directly into the RJ45 LAN connection on the K8T Neo and if so, how ?
    Thankyou for any helpful advice   

    Check to make sure you are not set to boot from network. Unfortunately I can't remember the exact name or where it is located, but it may help.
    Quote from: Geps on 07-July-05, 22:52:17
    as you say: a WIRELESS router is WIRELESS, how could you plugin a cable from a wireles router. or does it also have rj45 conectors?
    if you want to use the wirreles function, you will need to buy a wirrles lan adapter (usb) for your pc
    I have never seen a wireless router without rj45 connectors. (WAP yes, router no).
    Good Luck

  • K8T Neo 2 (MS 6702E) won't post!

    Using a K8T Neo 2 (MS 6702E) and a 3200+ athlon AMD 64 the machine won't boot.  The fans will not even respond when the power switch is pressed, only a blue LED on the case flashes slowly. 
    History:
     this combo was functioning fine initally when i set it up, with XP running with no problems whatsoever, however, when i opened it up to install a second HD I stopped getting a response from the machine, only the blue LED flashing.
    I 'solved' this problem by switching out the PSU with a 2nd PSU and the machine started up SEEMINGLY with no problems.  This led me to believe i had a bad PSU
    I tested the original PSU in another PC and it had no problems starting up into windows, so i put it back into the MSI machine and it worked. 
      I had to open the unit up AGAIN to swap some parts out, and when i did, the same problem occurred.  I tried to swap PSU again, but this time to no avail........I just keep getting that blue LED flashing when the PSU is plugged in. 
    I've tested the unit with just a single stick of RAM, the CPU and fan
    I've cleared the CMOS using the jumper
    I've pulled out the battery and allowed the motherboard to drain for 15 minutes
    all have resulted in no response from the unit, just a blue light on the case when i plug in the PSU.
    Do i have a short?  Any one have any suggestions on how to proceed??

    PSU details:
    Powerman PSU (came with Inwin case)
    350W
    12V 18A
    5V   30A
    3.3V 28A
    anymore details required?
    I've tried taking the board out of the case with a barebones set up several times...no luck. 
    the d-bracket doesn't provide any info as it doesn't power up during tests....
    "The fans will not even respond when the power switch is pressed, only a blue LED on the case flashes slowly."
    try with new and decent PSU(with high amperes & quality brand)

  • MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R won't power-up

    My MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R won't power up when I switch it on. All that happens is the fans "jolt" a few millimeters and that's it  
    Using an X-Pro 460w which does work as I have tested it on this PC  
    Any help would be greatly appreciated  

    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
