K8T Neo Windows 64 driver archive?

I am very happy with my new K8T Neo. I made my friend buy one of these motherboards and I will buy another one for myself next week.  
It would be really helpful if MSI could maintain a page of Windows 64 drivers for the K8T Neo. I understand that MSI does not write the drivers, but perhaps MSI can at least keep a list of drivers as MSI finds out that such drivers exist?
I did find the nVidia Win64 drivers for my video card, but I don't know if there are others. (Win64 does not seem to have drivers for the built-in NIC, for example).
Thanks in advance,

Creative Live! driver request:
Creative (Asia) gave an answer that tells little:
"Thank you for contacting technical support.
Regarding your enquiry, I'm sorry to inform you that at this current
moment, we do not have support driver for Windows XP 64-bit.
Hope that answer your query"
Creative America was bureacratic. Wanted to know the exact model and annoying about warning about OEM card. Which my card isn't. Bulk Yes. OEM NO.
So no answer at all from them really
Creative Europe: Still waiting.

Realtek onboard AC97 sounddriver request:
Realtek sounded more positive on the onboard soundchip(ALC655) driver. At least they're busy developing it.
And I got the beta AMD64 NIC driver from Realtek. Sso I have more hope in getting the Realtek onboard soundchip AMD64 driver soon, then a driver from Creative for my Live!

  • K8T Neo-FIS2R Hard drive configuration questions

    Im looking to buy this board in maybe a month or less (K8T Neo-FIS2R), and was wondering about configuring hard drives
    I will get the version which has the promise controller on board, fo SATA RAID
    The Plan is to get two Wetern Digital Raptor drives and put them in RAID 0 together.
    however i will still have my DVD Writer, removeable hard drive bay (takes one IDE) and  my current 80GB Seagate drive.
    if i use the SATA RAID, do i have to use IDE3 for all the other devices, or can i just plug them into the IDE1 and IDE2 slots?
    Also you are able to select SATA to boot from in bios correct? i have never done raid so have no idea how it works . and do you have to load RAID drivers or something before setting up windows?

    anyone?

  • K8T NEO Realtek AMD64 driver

    It's unofficial, but with a little bit of fiddling the driver works.
    I tried some and as far as I remember install "manually" by using the second inf file in the WinXP folder.
    Well I'm on a WinXP64 machine using these drivers to connect to this forum.
    Thx to lgoldson!

    Yeah.  I remember when I had that board.  I found the best SATA ports were the Promise ones, but...
    What do you think, Tiresmoke?  You had the same board too if I'm not mistaken.

  • [Athlon64] CAN'T SEE SINGLE SATA DRIVE / K8T NEO no Promise controller

    I have a K8t NEO -the cheapskate version with no PROMISE SATA controller or on-board Firewire
    I have been running on XP SP2 on 2 IDE drives, everything is ok.  I added a SINGLE SATA drive and turned the VIA SATA controller on in BIOS. I did the MSI Live Update and have the latest VIA SATA driver, latest chipset, latest BIOS, latest EVERYTHING. At boot, the VIA SATA controller reports my Hitachi SATA as Channel 0  Primary"  in the SATA devices table.  Going into the SATA RAID menu it tells me "You can't make RAID with just one drive"  which is true, of course.  But the point is the controller SEES the drive.
    I've run MSI Live Update and have the latest BIOS, latest SATA XP driver, latest EVERYTHING.
    Windows XP doesn't see the SATA drive.
    In XP  I see a VIA RAID CONTROLLER in Hardware / Device Manager  which is DISABLED.   When I right-click then click ENABLE on the VIA RAID CONTROLLER  the machine reboots immediately.  I tried safe mode, same thing.  I tried BIOS settings of "No PNP O/S Installed"  and "Yes PNP O/S Installed"  and reset the NVRAM.  No change.
    I think there must be an IRQ conflict....  I have a sound card (on-board sound is turned OFF in BIOS) and AGP video card, and that's it- no WiFi NIC or anything else to eat up IRQ resources. I use the Realtek on-board ethernet.
    I tried my Windows 98 partition and that booted, detected the new hardware (VIA SATA) and I installed the driver from the MSI CD  and Win 98 is happy with the SATA drive..... it sees the drive just fine.
    How do I make Windows XP see the SATA drive?

    Have you tried starting XP with CD and entering recovery, log on as admin and see if SATA drive is there? Remember to "F6" with a floppy drive of SATA drivers for
    -XP-... I'm assuming you already have as you said all is uptodate.  When the boot BIOS for the VIA SATA apprears and you press "TAB" I believe it is, you can mess with the SATA functions. Sorry if does not apply to your compy or you've already done all this.... BTW you CAN run a RAID array with one HDD, at least thats what I did on my Promise controller.
    In my Device Manager under Disk drives it looks like this (notes bracketed are noting position):
    Promise 1+0 Stripe/RAID0 SCSI Disk Device (Bus Number 0, Target ID 1, LUN 0 (G:\ 1-160GB IDE Seagate/notice ONE drive)
    Promise 2+0 Stripe/RAID0 SCSI Disk Device (Bus Number 0, Target ID 0, LUN 0) (F:\ 2x200 SATA)
    ST3160023A (Location 1 (1) VIA IDE D:\)
    VIA SATA RAID 0 SCSI Disk Device (Bus Number 0, Target ID 0, LUN 0) (E:\ 2x120 SATA)
    WDC WD800JB-00CRA1 (Location 0 (0) VIA IDE C:\)
    Under the boards BIOS, is the SATA drive listed under the BOOT table??? In my system it lists the above 5 partitions (7 HDD's total), floppy, 2 CD/DVD drives, etc...
    Oh also in Device Manager IS the VIA SATA controller appearing in the "SCSI and RAID controllers" tab??? I have set mine to just SATA before and of course now it says "VIA SATA RAID Controller"... for you it should read "VIA SATA Controller". Remember there are 2 different drivers for the SATA controller, one for SATA and one for SATA RAID. Look on your floppy disk or if you saved out the updated driver. I made a new floppy with the latest XP drivers. When booting from WINXP CD, and promted for "F6" and press it, later it will show you TWO different drivers after reading the floppy disk for XP. You obviously want the non RAID driver... hope that helps somewhat... g'luck

  • K8T NEO (MS-6702 VT8237) can't find SATA drive

    I just got a Seagate 160gb SATA drive (retail).  In the bios settings sata is enabled (default), Serial Port 1 is on Auto (default) but I don't know where to look in the BIOS to see that the drive is recognized.  I felt the drive and it's warm so I know it's getting power.  Brand new SATA cable from the Seagate box.  I'm using the drive as the primary drive to install OS.  I downloaded "VIA VT8237(R) SATA RAID Driver (For floppy driver)". Put on floppy, restarted with my bootable XP disc, hit F6 when XP was starting setup.  It recognized the driver install (gave me driver choice of XP, 2000 and NT).  Picked XP and then it continues loading.  Finally says "no hard drive found" (or something like that).  I even tried keeping my IDE as primary so I could add it as a secondary drive in windows. Installed all the latest 4 in1 drivers, raid setup and everything and won't recognize.  This is my first SATA install so I guess I'm missing something.  I guess I shoulda got the EIDE to make it ez :(  Please help!

    Hi!
    Have a look at the connector you used. If you have the full K8T Neo, you have two SATA controllers. One VIA and one Promise. You then have 4 SATA ports on the board. you need to use the ones closest to your RAM, so, the upper ones.
    Did you buy a SATA or SATA-II disk? In case it's SATA-II, check the SATA/SATA-II jumper on the drive and set it to SATA-I. Your board does NOT support SATA-II.
    when you checked this, please verify in BIOS that you actually did enable the VIA V8237 SATA controller. When you did, boot further untill the POST screen disappears. Now, you see a VIA SATA BIOS screen. It should list your Seagate now.

  • K8t neo 2 ver 2.0 and two sata drives acting up

    Hi all: I have had a single 1 terabyte sata drive on my k8t neo2 for a year now and no problems with it. I also have an IDE 200 gig boot drive that windows is on.
    Last week I installed a 2nd 1.5 terabyte drive as an archive storage drive and now am having wierd problems.
     I was copying files from the 1 terabyte drive(E drive) to the 1.5 tera drive(F drive) and noticed copying was really slow. I ran HD tach and it said both drives were reading around 3 meg/second.
    I then rebooted, went into Bios and it said the 2 SATA drives were set for RAID. I switched them to IDE, rebooted and now windows ran a disk check on the new F (1.5)drive. I did not notice if it had errors or not.
    I then tried hdtach again and am getting 80 mb/second on the old E drive and 78 on the new F drive. (I cant recall the exact numbers but they were really high)
    GREAT
     I copied about 200 gig of files and the copying went nicely, and seemed to me to copy fast as they should. Than I had a weird bug I have had for 3 years, and had to reboot (unrelated bug)
    Now when the system booted it did another disk check on the new F drive, found about 6 errors and when in Windows hd tach once again says both sata drives are running at around 3 mb/second. I manually tried copying files, and yes they were horribly slow.
    SO another reboot, switching back to RAID in Bios. System did not do a disk check this time, and now I am back to a fast 80 meg/second speeds on both SATA drives.
    The IDE drive stays around 50 meg/second and does not seem to be affected.
    Please note, these speeds I report are from HD tach, but I also manually copy files using file manager and time them with a stop watch and can tell they are horrible times. By a factor of 10 at least slower.
    I have a new sata cable installed on the new 1.5 drive. The k8t manual says I have  the 8237r plus chip set and I have read this supposedly can read 1.5 drives fine. It did as far as I know because the drive install went perfectly and worked the first try, it just was slow acting and I noticed these drive problems.
     my questions.
    1) I do not want any raid capability. Shouldn't I leave the SATA bios setting set to IDE mode?
    2) If I am supposed to set it for RAID then do I need to install windows RAID drivers? and if so, what mode RAID? I want no mirroring or anything like that. I just want a 2nd SATA drive to archive my movie database to.
    3) Is the new 1.5 drive bad?
    Any other ideas would be appreciated.

    Thank you both for answering. I have a new, less than month old Thermaltake butterfly 475 watt PSU. I have both sata drives on separate data cables, but they share the same Power supply cable. I made sure the sata data cables have nice big turns in them, no kinks or sharp edges.  The sata ports on this motherboard are not in an optimal location for drive bays thats for sure.
    I only had the one sata power cable out of the PSU. It has 2 sata power plugs on its end. My IDE drive has a seperate molex power line. My video card has a separate molex cable, and the DVD and floppy drive are sharing a molex power cable from the PSU. I can get you the bus amperages later if needs be.
    1) The bug I have had, is caused by my uninterrupted power supply. Sometimes when I do a cold boot, it installs 30-50 instances of its UPS program service. This has happened maybe 5 times in the past 3 years, so it does not really concern me. I just do another cold boot and it runs correctly and only has the 1 instance as it should.
    Of course it just HAD to happen when I was debugging these other hard drive woes.
    They both are sata II drives. I did not set their jumpers because I thought the motherboard was supposed to read sata II fine, just not run at those speeds.
    WL1000GSA1672   1 terabyte worked fine for 1.5 years now.
    WL1500GSA3272C  1.5 terabyte.  new a week ago.
     The IDE drive I did not record the brand, it is a generic 200 gig drive. I cant even recall who makes it. Probably 4 years old now. This IDE drive is my windows boot drive as well.
    Doing all this from memory since I have very limited Internet on this bad computer.
    winXP service pack 3
    dual core athalon 2800 I believe.
    Gskill 2 gig memory good quality, I cant recall its specs off hand.
    Nvidia 7600 GS 512 meg memory
    thermaltake PSU 475W
    Thermaltake CPU fan. copper core.
    I cold booted 3 times now and after boot I run HD tach and it shows 78-80 meg speeds. I saw no disk checks come up. I watched closely. I also ran a manual disk check and it found no errors.
    At this time I have around 250 gig on the new 1.5 terabyte drive.
    I hesitate to backup any more until I can trust things, or have some idea what caused this problem.
     In case you are wondering why I installed the new drive. I only had around 40 gig left on the single terabyte drive and maybe 20 gig left on the 200 gig IDE drive.
    So my thoughts were to transfer off alot of video and images from the other 2 drives to give them more free space and head room.
    It has been my long suffering experience in the past that when drives get close to their capacity limits they start suffering problems.
    Thank you awl once again.

    Singlemalt, I took it you were Scotch, at least by extraction. Now you comps talking Dutch.  What Distillery is it from, can I have some? :hypecrite:
    After you press F6, and it takes a couple of mins to get to the S screen, you put floppy marked Via in drive, and load both XP drivers, 1 then return to S screen, then the other. It needs both. Then it proceeds as normal.  If this does not happen, then are you using floppy for drivers, not a CD?  Or if the floppy drivers are corrupted, you can get a new copy from here.
    http://www.m-m.me.uk/Macs/index_files/Page561.htm
    One other option is to fit an IDE drive, it will make it the C: drive, but will install to SATA. At least then you will see if all is well with hardware, or if the software is flakey. After you have it sorted, you can remove the IDE and reinstall to SATA, which will then become the C:. disk.

  • K8T Neo-FSR will not boot Windows XP

    Hello,
    I just finished swapping out my old Asus P4B266 motherboard for an MSI
    K8T Neo-FSR.  I plugged all my old components into the motherboard and
    started it up.  I can get into the BIOS and everything seems to be ok
    as it detects all my drives (Seagate 120 GB IDE, Zip-100, Floppy 1.44,
    Creative Labs DVD and Plextor DVD burner).  However, after exiting the
    BIOS, I get the screen that tells me to select how Windows XP should
    start (safe mode, safe mode with command prompt, safe mode with
    networking, or start normally).  This is where my problem is.  I
    cannot get Windows XP to boot regardless of which option I choose.  I
    really do not want to have to reformat my drive.  If anyone has a
    solution or suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in
    advance.
    Current hardware:
    K8T Neo-FSR
    Athlon 64 2800+
    512 MB Crucial PC3200 RAM (non-ECC, unbuffered) CAS=3
    120 GB Seagate IDE Hard Drive
    (trying to load) Windows XP with SP1

    Hi
    Not a lot without BIG risk of losing some data. If you have mega important files, you will of course have several backups, and backups of back ups.  
    So you could slip another HDD in a bay and plug the cable from your Sys HDD into it. Then install OS to it, and use it to check and repair your IMPORTANT HDD, after, of course, you have done ANOTHER BACKUP. you may be able to use disk management or device manager to fix MBR and boot files.  As your offending HDD and the old C: partition, will will have a new Partition letter now, you can use XP CD repair facility of repair your previous installation. You will of course lose IE and OE info and settings, but not a lot else. But there again havng back up to Express Assist all your emails,OE settings and accounts along with all yout IE settings and data, will be restored at the touch of a couple of keys.
    cheers

  • K8T Neo crashes pc with 3d card's driver

    I recently bought a pc containing a K8T Neo motherboard with an Athlon 64 3200+ cpu and 2x512mb 3200 DDR400 Ram.  It came with a standard VGA driver installed, so I went into safe mode (it has Win98 SE installed), removed the standard driver, restarted and installed the driver for my Geforce4 Ti4200.  But when I restarted my pc again, I got all sorts of problems : windows protection errors, blue screens, the pc just freezing (sometimes with all sorts of colours on the screen) or messages that there isn't enough memory available to run Windows .
    I tried using both the AOpen driver and the Nvidia Detonator one (45.23), but both had the same result.  I also tried this with a Geforce2 MX card, but with no change either.  I also removed my soundcard and am using the onboard sound and networking.  I installed the latest Via 4-in-1 drivers and all Win98 SE updates I could find.
    I already formatted my hard drive twice and everything installs perfectly until I try using the card's driver.
    It's possible to install a Super VGA card and Super VGA 1024x768 monitor driver, but whenever I try to switch to more than 16 colors and restart, I get a message that the adapter type is incorrect or the settings don't work with my hardware, and it gets set back to 16x640x480.
    Is there a BIOS setting I should change?  Or maybe there is a problem with a Via chipset combined with Nvidia cards?
    And why does the system find a "PCI VGA compatible adapter" when I have an AGP card installed?
    That's the third day now that I'm doing nothing but restarting and seeing error messages.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
    (sorry for the long post)

    I installed the 4-in-1 drivers, then my card's drivers, after which ... my whole C: drive became corrupt and I had to format and re-install Win98SE.
    During this install I got a BSOD but Windows seemed to install correctly anyway.
    I did the above step again (installing the Aopen Ti4200 drivers and software) and got a black screen after restarting and 2 cursors, blinking randomly.
    Do you want me to tell you voltage values from my BIOS?
    And if so, where can I find these?
    I got a 350W power supply which came with my Aopen A600A case btw.
    Are you suggesting my card/pc isn't receiving enough power to work at full blast?
    I indeed get most of the problems resulting from too little voltages as mentioned in the link you gave me.
    And if by a "sirene" they mean a constant beeping sound, then yeah it's most probably a voltage problem.
    [edit]
    Here are my 350W power supply voltage settings :
    +3.3v  28A
    +5V  30A
    +12V  16A
    +5Vsb  2A
    -5V  0.3A
    -12V  0.8A
    (+3.3V & +5V = 220W Max)
    And in my BIOS they fluctuate as follows :
    Vcore  1.552V
    +5V  5.168V
    +12V  11.923V
    -12V  -12.071V
    -5V  -5.077V
    Battery 3.520V
    +5V SB  4.993V

    Later BIOS releases carry-over all the changes of previous releases.  You don't need to go backwards to get the earlier change.
    Which BIOS version did you have before and are using now?  I'm having trouble determining which board you have from "K8T Neo (MS-6702 v1.0)".  Is this your motherboard?

    I might be able to update the VIA SATA ROM in your BIOS to the latest version (v4.97) but I need to know for certain which board and BIOS.
