K9AG Neo2-Digital Dead? Not Posting but all powered up

Hmm.
have just plugged back in my machine after decorating my flat, Vista fired up and went to desktop, I went in the kitchen to grab a drink, came back, and the monitor is on powersaving mode as if it blanked out for the screensaver. Wiggled the mouse, nothing. Hit some keys, nothing. Pressed the power button, nothing. Held the power button down for an eternity - didnt even shut down. No HDD activity, but all fans whirring away and seemingly 'on'.
Spec:
600W OCZ PSU
XFX 260GTX GFX
4x 1GB 633mhz DDR2
Phenom II 945 x 4 CPU
Vista 32 Bit
Now, the only way to shut down my pc was to turn the power off from the PSU. I switched back on. No post screen, nothing on the display. Sat in sleep mode. However, all fans on, DVD-R light gives a flash, HDD spins up, but no HDD light, nothing. Again, only way to turn off was to turn the PSU off.
So I go about taking the components out, cleaning, reseating, even took the CPU out and replaced with my original Athlon x 2. Still nothing.
Anyway, I'm at a loss. Im guessing the motherboard must be fried? Is there anything I can do without having to take it to a specialist to charge me the same money as a new mobo will cost me?

 Is your CPU the 95W or 125W version?
 I suspect that CPU VRM MOSFET(s) may be fried. None of the 125W AM2/AM2+ were supported and then along comes AM3 and they show support for those 125W CPU's. Doesn't make a bit of sense to me, I've seen it on other similar MB's also. Look at the MOSFET's to the left of the CPU and see if any look overheated or burned.
 This is a different MB but is an example of what to look for:

  • MSI Neo2 Platinum will not POST, but fans spin.

    I bought this board about 2 months ago.
    I install the board and it works fine, until a few weeks ago. Im playing fear and it crashes into BSOD...then every time i try to load a game BSOD. This points to the memory- so i look at my DDR booster, and teh memory is a little off...i correct it and the game loads fine. I play for a little longer, then exit to windows and then the computer just starts BSODing like every 5 minutes. So i was like " it" im going to cut the memory back...strangly, the only dividers that work were 133 and 183...the rest just did not work.
    Then finally, i restart the computer, and no POST screen. I clear CMOS, nothing. Take the battery out for an hour, nothing. Take the memory out, no POST...I dont get it...the fans spin and everything powers on, but no signal is sent to the monitor.
    Then today, a few weeks later, I plug in just a PSU and a video card.  Same thing happens:  Fans spin, no POST.  oddly enough, whenever power is supplied to teh mobo it turns on, it doesnt wait for a power button to be pushed.
    2 things that might help diagnose the problem:
    Almost every BSOD pointed to ntfs.sys
    The PSU makes that clicking sound like its restarting about every 10 seconds when i boot up and there is no POST.
    Anyone know what i need to do? All other componants work fine in a AV8 3rd Eye, so it is the mobo.
    Thank you.

    Welcome to the Forum.  Please post complete system specs by creating a "sig" as described in the forum rules. Be sure to include complete power supply specs (brand, model and amps on 3.3, 5 and 12 volts) as shown on the label on the side of the power supply itself.  The fact that a component works in the ABIT board does not mean that it is not the problem in your board, so don't forget to list all components in reasonable detail (e.g., memory size brand specs, hd, cards).  Please confirm that you board is MSI #7025 too.  Good luck. 
    EDIT - We need to know your Bios version and whether you flashed, and if so, how and from and to what versions.
    fixed.  All info should be in sig.  I have tried 2 different PSUs, my Powersream 520 and my Antec SL400 all to no avail.
    I did flash my bios via booting off a floppy to the most recent beta bios, but it worked fine for a good while before eventually failing.
    All the componants in the sig were working fine in the mobo, and my HTT was 305x9 Stable.  I was using a DDR Booster.
    And im sorry, what do you mean by MSI #7025?

  • K9AG Neo2 Digital - power but no post 7750+(BE)

    Having a problem with my K9AG Neo2 Digital, Tried booting up after my system build and nothing happens. Power comes on but there is no one home, fans spin but screen does not turn on and no beeps of any kind.
    I have tried booting the system with diferent PSU, Ram, and after clearing the Cmos and with a diferent battery also.
    Board is a K9AG Neo2 Digital
    AMD 7750+ (Black edition)
    PNY 2X2 gigs of ram installed in slots 1 and 2 (have tryed ram in all combonations of all slots)
    650W PSU used
    onboard vid used with everything but the PC speaker and power button disconnected to rule that stuff out
    Jbat 1 is also on the correct pins 1&2
    Have tried different components for everything but the CPU
    Any insight as to what I need to do to get this thing running would be very helpfull.

    OK, i didnt realilize they had made bios chips that small now.... (First PC build in several years)
    numbers are A7368
    second line  AMS150
    and is there any way of flashing the updated bios without installing a CPU that this current bios supports?

    It means that has BIOS ver. 1.50, you need 1.70 or above with this CPU.

    Nop, install supported CPU[borrow from friends] by current BIOS version and update the BIOS.
    Or send mainboard back to reseller to update the BIOS for you

  • K9AG Neo2-DIgital: AMI BIOS v1.7 has no AHCI setting

    Hi folks,
    I recently upgraded my K9AG Neo2-Digital AMI BIOS from its original version (I don't remember what exactly) to v1.7 (the latest available on the MSI website).  Before the upgrade I had three choices for the SATA mode: IDE, ACHI, and RAID.  Now the setting is called "RAID Mode" and the only choices are: IDE, RAID.
    What happened to the AHCI setting?  I've been doing a lot of reading lately, and there doesn't seem to be a shortage of people having problems with AHCI and this board.  Perhaps the latest BIOS simply disables it because of issues?
    Anyway, it's a bit of a bummer because I finally got the latest Vista x64 AHCI drivers from both Microsoft (msahci.sys) and MSI (ahcix64s.sys) slipstreamed into my Vista setup DVD so I could try to do a repair install and get Vista to work in AHCI mode.  I had originally installed it in IDE mode, and thought, hey why not try AHCI (or RAID in the future).  Now I can't even choose AHCI mode in the BIOS.  The original Vista install DVD wouldn't even load if I enabled AHCI in the BIOS - presumably due to the older msahci.sys drivers not supporting the SB600 at all.
    I tried RAID mode, and the RAID BIOS detected my existing Vista drive as 1+0 JBOD, and the Vista install DVD detected the Vista installation on the drive (after loading the ahcix64s.sys driver), but I don't see any Vista repair installation option.  This is off topic, but is there even such a thing in Vista?  I know XP has a repair install that will fix the OS but leave all your apps and settings in tact.
    I get the feeling that Vista and AHCI/RAID were just never meant to work with the SB600 :(
    Any thoughts?

  • K9AG Neo2 Digital and USB

    System specs:
    AMD 64 X2 6000 (125w)
    K9AG Neo2 Digital (bios 1.5)
    2x Kingston 1G DDR2 667
    MSI Ge force 7800GT
    Western Digital 500GB IDE HD
    Windows XP Home SP2
    Thermaltake 700w PSU
    Please excuse any naivety on my part.  I recently purchased the CPU/mainboard mentioned above and am not able to install USB 2.0 from the included CD.  All other drivers (ATI installed first) installed with no problem.  This was a clean install of Windows XP SP1 with SP2 installed immediately after.  BIOS indicates that USB is enabled.  I've tried uninstalling the USB drivers with no change after reboot.  With that, I'm at the end of my comfort zone for any other proceedings and come to the forum for help.  In searching the forums, I found this post https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=112724.0 which I tried to emulate and failed.  I'd appreciate further insight and assistance.  I have another question as well.  The CPU/board was purchased locally at a point when I didn't have access to review or investigate the products on line.  I was told the 6000 125w would work with no problems with the K9AG Neo2 board.  Is this the case and am I risking damage to system?  Thanks for your time.

    The 125w version of AMD X2 cpus should not be used with your motherboard.  These cpus overload the power regulation circuit on the motherboard and can cause the motherboard's power regulation circuit to fail.  This may be the cause of the USB problem since the USB controller draws power from the motherboard to run any USB devices.
    Check this link for supported cpu.
    http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=prodcpusupport&prod_no=1241&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=171&cat3_no=#menu
    IMHO, exchange your cpu for the 89w version and see if that cures your problem.

  • Does the K9AG Neo2-Digital supports AMD's virtualization extensions ?

    I want to build a home server based on the K9AG Neo2-Digital.
    This machine should run several XEN Vitual Hardware Machines.
    For this I need a BIOS that supports the AMD's virtualization extensions AMD-V (a.k.a.  Pacifica, SVM).
    Thanks
    Martin

    CPU hardware virtualization only got really worthwhile with Nested Pages in Barcelona (and with ESX 3.5)
    If not Barcelona then I would not depend the choice of a motherboard based on CPU hardware virtualization support.
    Up till Barcelona CPU hardware virtualization is actually slower. It's not. ESX in Workstation shows great impovement WITH AMD-V.
    When more budget is available see if there's a Xen compatiblity list like with ESX. And base your choices around that.
    BTW Running ESX 3.0.2 on "cheap" HP ML115 (DC Opteron) bought @ebay for about 250Euro.
    With 200Euro upgrade to 6GB Kingoston DDR2-800 non-ECC it's running 6VM's including Exchange2007
    I ran XenServer yesterday on the ML115 and runs great out of the box
    Edit: 2 mofifications

    The settings in Customizing which define that no negative stocks are allowed for the storage type, have only an effect on the transfer orders. In addition, you must also set message L9040 as an error message. For this, call up the Customizing and branch to: 'Logistics Execution -> Warehouse Management -> Interfaces -> Inventory Management -> Allow negative Stocks in Interim Storage Types'. There, execute point 'Control of System Messages in Warehouse Management' and enter message type 'E' for message number L9040

  • Image not showing but all metadata and files are in place

    Using Aperture 2.1.4 and getting ready to upgrade to 3.1. I am finding that in several of my projects Aperture is not displaying some images. I get the famous dotted line and grayed out image. The metadata is in place and when I check the contents of the AP library everything seems to be in place.
    Now this is happening to images that have received editing but nothing outside of AP only local adjustments. I tried re-building the library but nothing changed. I've considered re-importing the images and deleting the grayed out versions only this can be really time consuming as there are 13,000 files in my library. Not to mention all the work I have into the adjustments would be lost.
    Has anyone else come across something like this? I tried searching the topic to no avail.
    Thanks!

    Hello Christopher.
    As you have discovered, the short user name for a user cannot be changed.
    If you want to use a different short user name, you must create a new user (this requires administrator privileges). You can then move items from your previous home folder to your new home folder if you wish.
    Check About the home folder's name and My home folder and desktop are different than before to correct it.

  • I apologize if this is a repeat -- I can't find if my question has been posted, but all traffic received through SAFARI (but not FIREFOX) quoting prices has the latter in EUROS, not US Dollars. Figures in my outgoing Email appear to the recepient in Dolla

    I apologize if this is a repeat, but I can't tell if my question has been posted.
    For the past several weeks, all incoming traffic via Safari 5.0.5, but not Firefox,containing cost/price figures appear in Euros, not US Dollars. My responses, however, are received correctly in US Dollars. Wierd, and irritating.  Any ideas?

    To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
    Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

  • Bt sport not working but all Internet channels ok

    For over about 2 months we have got the error message up ipc6011 whenever we try to watch bt sport. All other Internet channel work fine including catch up and you view. This is beginning to get frustrating as it is getting upto the end of the free months and we have barely watched any games. I have gone through the suggestions for the error online and it still doesn't work. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi 123sim189,
    Welcome to the forum and thanks for posting. Sorry you're having problems with the BT Sports service. You've mentioned going through the online help but can you double chack 'IPC' error codes on YouView and let me know if it helps. If you're still having problems after that drop me an email with your details and I'll take a look for you.

  • PM8M3-V Not posting but did post once

    Hi everyone, First off I should warn you I'm really new at this.
    I built a computer with the components below and turned it on. Everything powered up fine, onscreen information did not show the sata hard drive and also said the floppy drive was missing (I didn't install one). I went into bios and disabled the floppy and changed nothing else. My husband was helping me at this point and Windows tried to load but was unable to. I don't know if he tried loading it or it did it on it's own after exiting bios (Windows xp home was installed about 1 week ago on this hard drive on another machine, long story but that computer's what got me into building a new one)
    Shut down the system to check the SATA connections. Unplugged and replugged them. They were ok. Went to turn back on the computer and everything sounded and lit up just like before but no display on the monitor. (I figure I need to address this problem 1st, then I'll see why the hard drive is not being seen. There were discussions already that will help me on that.)
    I have gone through the basic troubleshooting guide, I did everything in there to resolve the problem. Removed the motherboard to see if it's shorting on the case, cleared the bios with the jumper JBAT1 and by removing the battery, verified the components are compatible, there are no beeps to determine any codes. Tried restarting after removing the cdr and hard drive. no change. I cannot find any more suggestions to try in the forum.
    What could this be? What else can I try to resolve it? Tested the monitor on another computer and it works fine. Checked all the cables on it too. Could this be something with the on board video card? I do not have another video card to test with though. I don't think so because I had video the 1st time. Help, what do I do next?
    Thanks for your help

    No, I have not. Unfortunately I lost video before I could do anything. Thanks for your input. I hope you know of a solution.
    I also realize this is very similar to the post a few before this, I did think it was different enough for a new post because I had video once. I had tried all that was suggested to that inquiry also.
