K8T Neo2 onboard via sata not working

I recently installed this board (bought it used a while back) and I can't get the onboard Via sata ports to recognize my drive. My Cpu is a 3200 Venice, I'm using 1gb of ram (512mbx2) and my sata drive is a WD WD5000AAKS. I did get it to show up once but I have no idea how and I haven't been able to do it again. The Promise ports work fine. I've tried every combination of options I can think of. I've tried it with the ports set to both RAID and Sata, I've tried it with the Promise controller both enabled and disabled, I've tried it with every card except the video card removed, and with all the IDE drives unplugged and nothing seems to work. It did show up under bios 3.3 but that bios isn't compatible with my cpu so that's not a real solution. I've tried bios 9.3 and 9.4 and neither work. I've also tried both ports. I have a Via VT6421 card that does work so it's not a Via thing but more likely either a bios thing or the ports on the board have died but since the older bios picked up the drive I doubt that. Anyone have any ideas?

I know WD's site says it's sata2 but I think mine's an older version that's sata1. Companies are always changing products and keeping the same model number. It doesn't matter since I did try the jumper and it made no difference.
Do you know what firmware the Via controller uses in the 9.x series of bioses? I think the 3.3 version used 4.5 (the same as my controller card) but with the 9.x series it flashes by so fast I can't see it. Maybe that's the problem, the controller isn't waiting long enough on the drive.

MSI K8T Neo2 issue with SATA drives....

I have a K8T Neo2 motherboard, with a 3700+ San Diego core, running Windows XP Service Pack 2. I don't have the version with the Promise SATA Raid - using the VIA SATA RAID. I am using the latest BIOS (according to the Live Monitor).
The machine was set up (the OS installed) on an IDE 40 gig drive. All was fine, but I noticed that my machine lagged at times (mostly games, under heavy disk load) so I decided to get a couple of Seagate 250 gig drives (they have NCQ, which I know is not supported by this MB, but they were on sale, and I'd read that the drive should still work ok).
I attached the drives, and enabled SATA in the bios. The machine boots fine. I created a single 500 gig striped array using the two new drives. Windows XP sees the array fine, but that I have to initialize it.
Every time I initialize it I get an error that says, "An error has occured" and tells me to check the event log (nothing there), and to either restart the Disk Manager or reboot my computer. The OS actually locks up a few times when I'm doing this (the mouse-cursor freezes).
I've tried using the disks as two single disks, same error (and it reported that they were only 137 gig each, though apparently it's a registry issue, and I used a util to change that setting, but I haven't tested to see if it changed anything.).
I got the latest VIA SATA drives from the MSI site, and installed them (though honestly, WindowsXP saw the card and the drives just fine). One weird thing is that the VIA SATA RAID is listed under SCSI devices in the Device Manager - there is no SATA category in there.
I'm at a loss here. I've searched the web, and this forum, without luck.
Any advice would be appreciated.
*Edit* I just unplugged two IDE disk drives from the computer, and when I started it up again, it found a Promise SATA Raid controller. I thought that wasn't included with the basic version of the board?
David.

Ok - thanks - I read through the stickies and updated my bios tonight to 9.20 (the latest).
Had some dry-mouth moments when WindowsXP decided to "discover" every piece of hardware I had, right down to the mouse, and again when core-center rebooted my computer.
Also, there was some time where my memory (OCZ 2-3-3-6 DDR3200) was being set to CAS2.5, which was kind of weird, but it fixed itself.
Unfort, I am unable to increase my FSB/HTT speed past about 205 before my computer does a reboot.
I have an ATI video card (X800 Plat Ed), and I'd read that some other people had issues with ATI card and the AGP-lock, so I got the CG-ICS950405 clock-gen, and it does state that my AGP is running at 66 (and PCI 33).
Going to bump up my settings via clockgen as soon as I post this (want to post before it potentially crashes).
Should I roll back to the 9.10 bios? Not a lot of discussion on the 9.2, and I'm wondering if it causes some issues.
Thanks again for all the help and info. I used to have a firm grasp on all the components of a system, way back in the P3 days, but things have changed quite a bit...
**EDIT**
Seems to be a Core-Center issue. Used ClockGen to o/c to 2600, with temp nice and low. Will run like this for a bit. Does Core-Center work with a 9.X bios?
I think all my problems are solved - copied a wack of files to my SATA drives, and there were no issues. I won't trust Live Monitor again for drivers or bios - it's still stuck way back at 3.30.
I'll pass the info I've learned off whenever I can.
Comments and criticisms welcome.
David.

I looked at the motherboard page - they recommend 3.30 unless you have having issues (which I kind of guess I am). Funny that Live Monitor won't pick up those BIOS changes - wonder what else I'm missing.
So 9.1 fixes the AGP/HTT overclocking issue?
The stickies are great - thanks.

K8T Neo2 V2.0 SATA-Problem

Hi Folks,
I got a "problem" with my K8T Neo2 V2.0. At first I had 3 IDE-drives, but I needed a new DVD-burner to read double-layer discs. So I bought a SATA-Drive, plugged it in and it worked good. (VIA 5.13A hyperions). After that I decided to go for a new, bigger, faster harddisk .. also SATA. I wanted to profit from the speed so I made a clean install of Windows XP on that new SATA-drive. BIOS was set to IDE and the Windows-setup recognized the drive correctly without an driver from floppy. Then I used the newly released 5.14A Hyperions and the strangeness began. Suddenly the safe-removal-icon for the SATA drives in the taskbar was gone, no more hot-plug capabillity I thout. I wanted to install a game from DVD and I realized darn slow read-speed from the new DVD-drive. I read only with 3x-speed and double-layer DVDs with 2x. I made a repair-install of Windows XP an rolled back to the 5.13A Hyperions and now my safe-removal-icon and the normal read-speed is back - but now sometimes I get an "program-lag". When I close a programm and want to open an other, or just a menu or something, sometimes the PC don't react for 1-2 seconds.
Any suggestions? Any knowledge about SATA-behavior on the K8T Neo2 V2.0? (or the VIA Hyperions?)

Well here are some specs:
Athlon 64 X2 4200+
2x 512 MB DDR400 RAM, Infineon
1x IDE HDD, Maxtor 6Y120P0
1x SATA HDD, Seagate ST3250410AS16
1x IDE DVD-Drive Pioneer A06S
1x SATA DVD-Recorder Plextor PX-810SA
Creatice SB Live! 5.1
PSU Enermax 350 Watt (EG365AX-VE / 3,3V=32A; 5V=32A, 12V=26A)
Windows XP Pro with SP2 installed on SATA-HDD
The Hyperions from the MSI-Driver CD also don't work (same no-hot-plug-problem).
In the BIOS the SATA-channels are configured as IDE, I never needed a driver floppy for XP-install.
The system event-log only shows one failure "loading of boot- or systemdriver viamraid failed". When I had my old XP install on the IDE drive (with installed 5.14A hyperions) the VIA V-Raid utility was installed and could be started, the hot-plug-ability was working as I plugged in the DVD-Recorder. Then I installed XP on the new SATA-HDD (with plugged in dvd-recorder) and the problems came up. Also now no via vraid-utility is installed.

K8T Neo FIS2R AMIBOOT.ROM not working

Hi
Had a game crash on my system, and froze everything, so had to restart manualy - now I get the error BIOS is not installed..
I have downloaded a copy of the bios (not latest) and changed the relevant ROM file to AMIBOOT.ROM and copied to a freshly formated floppy.
I inserted the disk, held down CTRL and HOME and started the computer...
After a while of running through the messages of BIOS not installed and no SATA installed (which is correct), the floppy drive light comes on, and then after a while (afet I have released the CTRL and HOME keys) I get a message saying "Remove disks or other media, Press any key to restart" then nothing, if I press any key - it says the same thing untill I remove the floppy... and then it restarts again.
I have tried to restart using the floppy and the CTRL and HOME keys about 20 times so far - always the same result - I have even tried diferent versions of the BIOS.
Any ideas?
I only have one stick of RAM (256Kb - 333) and two IDE HD's
Many thanks in advance
GreenBoy

Hans
My Set up is as follows (from the top of my head as I am doing this form work)
K8T Neo FIS2R.
AMD 3300 745pin chip set.
1 stick of 512Mb ram (non branded - baught from Watford Electronics)
2 x 200Gb Maxtor HD's
1 40GB Seagate HD
1 DVD RW
Power 500W
Dont know what else you need...
Anyway - last night I reset the CMOS in the way you described.
Still cant find the VIA settings in the Advanced Chipset or elsewhare - but I will. urned of SATA in Intergrated Peripherals...
Anyway - what then happens, is it says it cannot boot.
I tried using a Win98 SE boot disk - and all the drivers were listed as not possible to load or something...
Any way - deciding I did not have anotehr boot disk to hand - tried Symantec Ghost - still same result.
Finaly I tried WinXP Pro, and found that this installed all the bootup files no problem at all - what was then found was that my C: partition was missing - yup boot sector had completely disapeared.
Anyway knowing that I have recent full backups og my primary drives using Ghost, I took the plunge, created a partition in the unalocated space, reformated the drive, and reinstalled WinXP... all seems ok for now... except the message regarding no BIOS - but from what you say as soon as I fing the switch I will loose that again.
The strange thing is I never used to get this message before, and do not remember setting anything up for SATA - couldnt afford the disks at the time....
Thanks for the help Hans, you have been more than gwenerouse with your time , but can you please give me some more information? (Im a bit of a Nooby at playing with BIOS etc as they scare the crap out of me! )
1) Why is the detail of my system so important? I have made no Hardware changes for approx 6 months and everything was fine untill the game crashed, so therefore, dont see why this should affect things.
2) Why did the flashing of the BIOS not work? I was following the instructions carefully - but nothing.. therefore in my Nooby mind this means there is something else wrong, stopping the flashing from working.
Again - many thanks

SATA not working after Windows rebuild

Apologies as some of these topics seem to have been covered elsewhere. My problem is as follows:
1) I bought an X2 4400+ to replace my AMD 3200+. I duly flashed Bios 9.3 (following the instructions and advice given here - thanks everyone) and guess what - everything worked, except the Promise controller would not detect the IDE drive properly (which it had under Bios 3.3). I 'fixed' this by putting it on IDE 1 as a slave. At thsi stage my SATA drive on the Via controller was fine.
2) I then discovered that I was still not getting any performance improvement. Afer much reading around I discovered that I needed to re-build windows to get multi processor support. I did this, and now have MPS processor (or similar I am not on the 'suspect' PC as I write), instead of ACPI Uniprocessor in Device manager.
3) Now the problems! My SATA drive is on the Via controller. After the Windows 2000 rebuild it showed up as Drive C. BUT I could not read any data on it and there were no divers shown in Device manager. But it was clearly visible in 'My computer'.
4) I have variously:
Physically disconnected the device and restarted. - no result.
Re-set the Bios (by using the) Jumper. After this I have re-set the BIOS to SATA (for the Via controller) - no joy
Set Bios optimised defaults and re-set the Via to SATA. Even with the latter, Windows does not auto detect the Via controller at all.
All my digital photos are on this drive. Most of the data is backed up, but it is a mamoth task to restore four years of data..
Any ideas??

Firstly, thanks to everyone for taking the time reply.
Some points for you, maybe you can come up with a good solution!
1) Both the Via Sata and Promise Sata show up in the sequence before boot up, if they are enabled.
2) I have selected the Via Sata driver in integrated peripherals. I have also reset the BIOS by using the jumper on the motherboard to clear the memory. I have also done the trick of setting optimised deafuts and the re-setting the settings in the Bios
3) I have tried to make my drive work with the promise controller - no joy.
4) I have done a repair install and hit F6, I inserted the Via controller floppy. Still no joy. SCSI not seen in Device manager.
5) The Operating sytem is on a separate IDE disk.
6) I have the feeling that Windows is not preoperly detecting the Via contraoller, because even when I see the disk (but cannot access it) in My Computer, the Via controller does not show in Device Manager, at all. This confuses me. How can Windows see the device in my computer but still not recognise it in Device Manager? Could I have some low level windows drivers present (I have installed sp4) that are confusing the situation?
Maybe when I get home (I am on a business trip for 10 days) I will try setting up a fresh system with another hard drive.
Thanks again,
George Adam

Share via Mail not working after Yosemite upgrade

Hi all,
I recently upgraded from Lion to Yosemite and now I cannot use the Send via Mail option in Pages (or Numbers for that matter).
I searched for this already in another tread but the answer (permission repair) did not work. The Exporting option still works, although it wants to save the file in a strange location, namely LIBRARY - CACHES - CLEANUP AT STARTUP - COM.APPLE.IWORK.PAGES.8572.TEMP.XXXXXXX instead in DOCUMENTS or DESKTOP.
Any and all advice on this small but annoying inconvenience is welcome :-)
Thanks
Ray

Pages '09 v4.3 has lost this capability on Yosemite. Export to desired document format, and then drag/drop into Mail body.

Installing Flash Player 11.8.800.94 via GPO not working properly

Hello,
i've installed Flash Player 11.8.800.94 via GPO.
Installation works fine, but there is no flash player available in Firefox or Internet Explorer.
Deployed both Flash Players.
Tried to reinstall Flash Player 11.8.800.94 for Firefox, but it's still not active.
Windows 7, 64bit
Greetings,
Michael

Hello Comvel.
RE:
Hello,
i haven't fixed it yet.
I've deployed the last few version of flash player without any problems.
I haven't found any new things in the admin guide.
The plugins don't show up in both browsers. I can't enable them.
On the most importent clients, i've installed flash player manually.
I know it has been a few months since your post but, I was wonderingif you were able to find a solution for this that didn't involve manual installations. I've recently deployed 11.8.800.175 and am running into the same problems. Some work stations are just fine. But others, (both windows 7 and xp, all IE8) are not working. When navigating to a site like youtube, theres a banner that says update is needed. When you go to manage add-ons there is no shock object/add on.

Sync Google Contacts via iTunes not working

Hi
Just got a new Macbook with Yosemite and am syncing my Google Mail, Calendar, Contacts with the Macbook without difficulty, I have disabled iCloud syncing for Mail, Calendar, and Contacts.
Now, I want to get Google Contacts set up on my old iPhone 3G (iOS 4.2.1) as a stop gap before getting a new iPhone down the line. However, I can't find a reliable way of getting my Google Contacts on to the iPhone 3G.
Exchange Sync and CardDAV do not work. I don't mind syncing via iTunes but I can't set this up either. Despite telling iTunes to sync 'All Contacts' it won't sync those from my Google account. Only contacts in 'On My Mac' group sync across, but I don't want to manually keep track of and copy new Google contacts into this group just to sync.
Why won't iTunes sync the Google contacts group - currently it is the only group in my OS X Contacts.
I have reset sync and reinitialised the iPhone to factory image - neither works.
Any advice appreciated.

try rebooting the appletv.
also, you have a first generation appletv but have posted in the second generation appletv forum.

Javascript calls via getURL not working anymore

After upgrading to flash player 9,0,115,0 a simple call like
getURL("javascript(alert'message')); doesn't work anymore on
Internet Explorer (it fails without any error in policyfiles.txt,
but it still work on Firefox). My IE version is 7.
I can't use ExternalInterface 'cause i need to publish as
Flash Player 7 AS2.0.
Any comment or suggestion?

I have a similar problem. When running a local HTML file,
using IE7 and FP 9,0,115,0, all the getURL function calls cease to
work.
If I downgrade to FP8, still using IE7, everything works.
If I downgrade to IE6, still using FP9.0.115.0, everything
works.
If I load the HTML via HTTP (instead of local), using IE7 and
FP9.0.115.0, everything works.
If I use Firefox, with FP9.0.115.0, everything works.
So, the function calls fail only when the swf is contained on
a
local HTML file, using
IE7, and
FP9.0.115.0. The problem is, most of our customers have that
software profile, and all of them need to load the content locally
(its very heavy for network transmission).
All the getURLs are like this:
getURL("javascript:someFunction()");
We're setting the 'allowScriptAccess' to 'always'.
Also, if we put the OBJECT tag inside the HTML (instead on an
external JS file), the function calls still do not work.

Connection to server via smb not working

hi,
i have an old G4 iBook 10.3.9 that i'm using for school. to connect to our school server for course material, we were given smb log-in instructions from our it dept. when i put in the ip address, i get a prompt for the id and password, but i cannot get access. we tried logging on with my professor's macbook pro (10.5) and it worked flawlessly.
i've done all software updates and rechecked the procedure dozens of times, but i can't figure out why it's not working. if anyone has an idea, i'm all ears.

AC97 onboard sound DOES NOT WORK under Windows 2000

Just an FYI, the AC97 Audio on your MSI mainboard will not work under Windows 2000, for which the AC97 hardware is not certified. If you try to use it, your audio output will be intermittant at best and will crash your audio applications at worst. A maddening and disheartening problem for people like me who didn't realize the problem existed and spent many hours trying to getting it to go away.

hiya -
I am have this trouble as well!
Are you useing professional, or Advaced server?
I have done EVERY kind of update... so dice.
