K9N Neo-F and AMD Athlon X2 AM2 6000+ (125W)

Hi Everyone!
I want to upgrade my PC, now I have:
MSI K9N Neo-F motherboard
S/N: 601-7260-010K0609058577
MS-7260 ver. 1.0 K9N Neo nForce 550, AMD AM2
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 AM2 3800+
RAM: GoodRam 2x512MB (667) and 2x1GB (667)
GPU: Zotac GF 8800GT
Now I want to buy:
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 AM2 6000+ (125W)
RAM: GeIL 2x2GB (800) Black Dragon II
My question is: can I use this new CPU on old motherboard?
Have anyone similiar configuration?
In this topic: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=108896.0 someone has the same motherboard and CPU, but talking abolut PSU...
Waiting for help :-)

I was looking for a 125watt board too and its really hard to find one from MSI that have the things I want, I cant even find a board with Nvidia chipset, amd2+ and support a 125 watt processor (or not tested OK yet) or some boards without a cpu support list yet. So no AM2+ for you if you want a 125watt processor on it and a nvidia chipset. is there any reason why MSI cant fix 125watt support?
If you dont care about a future quadcores upgrade you can buy a old AM2 board, but dont forgot to look at the cpu support list, because the most AM2 boards doesnt support 125watt either. ???

That is not true, 125W support usually have high end mainboards.
"I cant even find a board with Nvidia chipset, amd2+ and support a 125 watt processor (or not tested OK yet) or some boards without a cpu support list yet. "
Here are they:
K9N2 SLI Platinum/K9N2 Zilent ==> http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1443&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=171
K9N2 Diamond ==> http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1438&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=171
AM2+ Nvidia chipset boards, not only support 125W, but support 140W CPU too.

MSI K9N Neo board- and Windows 2003 R2

Hello,
I am having some compatibility issues with running a K9N Neo board and Windows 2003 r2
--I cant get core center to run
--I cant get audio/sound to work, it is all installed except for one thing.
so then i killed by loading XP drivers that it did not like.
Does anyone have a list of the minmum drivers off my CD that i should install to get it going, or are they on the MSI site for W2k3? I could not find them.
This machine works totally fine with XP and Vista.
thanks

That is mostly correct, absolutely. But it happens that Microsoft thought-up some security measure or two that prohibits some - for example - updating procedures. Here is an example, but I doubt that is your problem. Please note the kb number, you don't have to learn Swedish.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922582/sv
Modificacion: Very few companies do I believe produce special 2003 drivers. Don't think I ever saw any MSI ones, anyway. Isn't it enough that XP and Vista works? Those are better for gaming, entertainment, VOIP and such.

Help with K8N NEO 4 and AMD X2 3800+!!!

For christmas i got a new AMD Athlon X2 3800+ CPU. System Specs Below.
AMD Athlon 3800+ Dual Core CPU
MSI K8N Neo4 Sli motherboard, nforce 4 chipset
XFX Geforce 7800GT 256 MB PCI-E GFX Card
2X512 MB Corsair XMS 3200 Xtra low latency memory
Antec TruePower 2 550Watt PSU
Now, when ever i'm playing a game, at random time periods, the system will start looping the sound, and after a few seconds it will reboot. When it does this, the monitor will go into standby until it restarts,with the little amber light and everything. It does it more often on some games than others. The memory has passed a 24 hr memtest 86 with no errors, and this is the second psu i've tired and still get the same result. The psu in it right now is brand new. I dunno what to do. I'm tired of not being able to play my games b/c of this. The heatsink on the CPU is stock. Also on the graphics card. Temps never reach above 47C on the processor and 65C on the GFX card. Please help me.

K9N Neo V3 and SATA DVD-RW, need help

Hi all!
I've got a K9N Neo V3 mainboard and a Pioneer DVR-215BK DVD-RW (which is a Serial ATA drive). The problem is, when attempting to read any disc (CD or DVD), the drive recognizes it OK - but then hangs the very moment data transfer begins, then after 3-4 attempts (i.e. read-hang-read-hang etc) starts reading, but transfer mode is set to PIO by the OS (I have Windows XP SP2 installed). I can change it back to UDMA 4, but when I load a disc the whole story repeats :( . Reading speed in this mode is not too impressive, of course.
I have upgraded mainboard's BIOS and the writer's firmware to the latest versions; tried NVidia IDE SW drivers; checked the RAM for errors; connected the writer to different SATA ports with different cables; changed RAID mode in BIOS setup - and, of course, surfed the web searching for the solution - and now I'm here... Seems like few people had quite the same problem, but I've tried what they were proposing (even disabling error control for the corresponding IDE channel in Windows registry) - with no result at all.
Here's what I have inside my PC case:
MB and DVD-RW - you already know; RAM: KingMax 2*1024 Mb 800 MHz; HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 (SATA); Graphics: NVidia 8800 GS; Sound: Creative X-Fi Xtreme Audio; PSU: Delta 500W.
Note: SATA HDD works fine in UDMA 6 mode, without any errors. Any other piece of hardware I have also operates fine...
Hope anyone can tell me what causes this issue and what I can do about it. Is it my DVD-RW or motherboard that's faulty, or some compatibility issue, or I'm just stupid ? Thanks in advance.

The burner is not the issue , the issue is the motherboard or some simple bios settings or the bios itself .I have a K9n Neo v2 mcp 520 and it has the same problem dvd-rw under pio , i think the problem is caused by the drivers , because they just won't install
Well, that's at least something! Means I'm not alone.
Yesterday I cleaned up whatever was remaining that could have caused the issue: removed everything but vital components; uninstalled all programs that might use additional drivers (like Nero, WinCinema and such); had the RAM checked again by MemTest86+ 2.01. Well, nothing changed, of course.
Tomorrow I'm taking the system to the dealer I've bought it from (that's gonna be a challenge, we got a lot of snow here ) - we'll see what the service personnel has to tell me.
I will let you know as soon as the problem is solved.
Nestemat
In your case - what's the brand and model of your DVD-RW? Have you tried downloading the latest drivers - or maybe your installation CD is bad or a buggy installer? Try installing the drivers manually.

OCI 9.0.1 and AMD Athlon Processor

Hello,
I have a client who is using an Oracle 8.1.7 server and is connecting from workstations running OCI 9.0.1 (the 9i R1 client). This is working fine except for on one workstation. The only known difference with this machine is that it is using an AMD Athlon processor (all the others are Intel processors).
The behavior appears to be that for floating point numbers, Oracle/OCI is telling our product that the numbers are integer numbers (no decimals). Thus, my application is not displaying the decimal places (since it is being told there are none).
All other workstations work fine.
Any ideas? I am wondering if there is a known issue with the AMD Athlon processor and the oracle 9.0.1 client...? I am attempting to convince the user to try the 9.0.2 client, but I don't want to waste his time.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Rob

Thanks Adrian.
I'll try to get him to run a straight select, but I don't even know if they installed SQL-Plus on the machine. He hasn't exactly been cooperative (I've asked him to check other areas of my application and he doesn't) so I don't know what he will do.
As for the sqlnet.ora file, I am not sure what to look for in there...? or do you suggest blowing it away and starting over?
Thanks again,
Rob

MSI KT4 ultra and AMD ATHLON 2600+ and Corsair 512Mb 3200

Hello,
i've bought a: MSI KT4 ULTRA and a AMD ATHLON 2600+
Today, i've updated the bios to the version 1.3! So: no problem to reboot after the process complete.
BUT, now i can't set the CPU at 2.16Ghz (280Mhz clock) because if i set the clock up to 100Mhz it doesn't reboot anymore! the motherboard detect the frequency @ 1250 Mhz :(((
Please: HELP ME
(sorry for the grammar and / the english) but i'm a french guy.

Hi,
I had the same issues, see the thread:
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/e_service/forum/viewindex.php?threadid=11717&boardid=13&styleid=1
Essentially I had to set (in the BIOS) the FSB to 166 and left the Multiplier on auto. This ment the processor was reported properly as 2600+, but the memory will only run at 333 MHz... Yeah I think I wasted the money on getting the latest and greatest memory too....
Had me worried for a while, I though my supplier had palmed a bad chip off on me.... It just that the board can't do the highest speed chips and the highest speed memory at the same time (it states that that is unsupported in the manual...)
hope the helps...

FX5900XT-VTD128 Board hangs with Mother board ASUS A7NE8X-E de Luxe and AMD Athlon 3000+

Hello Folks,
Please, I need your Help !!!
I bought a new FX5900XT-VTD128 Board and I am trying to install it in my new PC and it hangs the PC. It has just frozen it and I can not access neither the Bios or anything else. If I use my old Nvidia 4, everything works fine. My Mother board is a ASUS A7NE8X-E de Luxe and Monitor is a LG Flatron 17" Model: T710SH. The Bios of my PC is the last version liberated by ASUS version 1012 E. My Processor is an AMD Athlon 3000+ DDR 400 - The PC has 1GBDRAM (DDR - 400).
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem ?
Thanks,
Mario

Hi Kingfisher,
Thanks for your help.
But the Video Cards hangs in the Boot moment, before MS Windows XP comes in and the driver begins to act. My concern is a hardware conflict or a incompatibility or even hardware defect.
What kind of troubleshooting is ideal ?
Regards,
Mario

Kt4v-L and amd athlon xp 2200+ issue.

Hey all,
I'm new to the boards here and am in complete desperation.
I just received my new AthlonXP 2200+ in the mail and went to put it in. I had some minor issues with CPU acknowledgement (reporting it as a 1500+) so I flashed to version 1.8 of the KT4V mainboard bios. After the flash was completed (done with livebios btw) My system will no longer boot into Windows. It WILL boot into safe mode, but as far as actual fully functional windows, it stalls just before the windows logo shows during the loading screen, kind of like a transparent image.
I'm not really all that proficient in all the computer lingo..so i may leave something out,if so please let me know and ill dig up the needed info. But this is my system setup:
Mainboard: MSI Kt4V-L Bios version 1.8
Cpu: AMD Athlon XP 2200+
Power: Alliance 450W
Video: Visiontek GeForce 3 TI500
Sound: Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy X-Gamer
Ram: Samsung 512 DDR400
Hard Drive: Western Digital 10 gigabyte
CD-RW: Sony
CD-ROM: Creative labs
Lan: Onboard
If anyone has any idea what my problem might be, and any possible way to remedy this situation, It would be greatly appreciated :D

Alright... I think your FSB is set wrong. MSI says that a 100mhz FSB is incompatible with DDR400 memory, so that probably explains your windows boot problem. To check that, enter the bios when you turn your computer on and go to "Frequency and Voltage" (press delete to enter the bios). Set the front side bus to 133mhz. That is most likely the problem since a 2200+ has a 13.5 multiplier, and 13.5 *100 = 1350mhz, which is about the same speed as a 1500+. Also, check to make sure your RAM speed is set to auto. I think that option is found under Advanced chipset options (it's the third one on the left). Post back if that works or not.

KT4V and AMD Athlon Xp 2400+

Ive got a KT4V motherboard with a Geforce MX 440 Graphics card, 512DDR PC2100 Ram and an AMD Athlon Xp 2400+ Cpu. I was wondering wether anyone could tell me anything i could do to make my system run that bit faster without overclocking.
Im gonna get a new case soon with a better power supply and cooling so im glad to hear any suggestion for overclockin as well. Its not gonna be watercooled or anything like that so i cant go extreme with the fsb and stuff.

problem is your ram,your best o/c is lower multiplier,read the wire trick thread as you need that and then run it at 166 fsb or a bit more
but chances are at 166 your rams not going to boot being only pc 2100
so leave it be as far as multiplier and raise fsb a bit at a time
due to the multiplier bit your chipset uses at around mid 140 fsb it will not boot as agp and pci will be out of specs to much

K9N Neo-F and USB Mouse problem

Hello,
Some people including me have noticed problem with USB Mouse when using MSI K9N Neo-F BIOS above 1.3.
Results are simple - when loading Windows, the system initiates USB devices, but when it goes to Windows mouse doesn't work.
There is only one solution to fix the problem, reconnect USB cable from mouse.
It seems to be a BIOS problem, but there have been many BIOSes during 2-3 months and now currently the newest one is 1.63 Beta, which still didn't fix the problem at all.
I contacted MSI, but they can't do anything.
According to my tests, if I change in BIOS S1 to S3, it runs fine until I won't shutdown computer and turn it on again.
I wonder if there's any solution. I'm really mad about it and probably will RMA my mobo or change it to some else.

[K8N Neo-FSR/V2] Amd Athlon 64 Compatibility

Hi all,
I have bought a motherboard K8N Neo-FSR/V2 with a AMD64 compatibility. I can buy a Athlon 64 3700+ socket 754 but on msi site, compatibility is marked "under testing".
Someone can confirm me the real compatibility with this processor please?
Thanks.

It's an updated version of the old MS-7030 K8N NEO FSR which already supported all So754 Athlon64 'til 3700+, all Turion 'til MT40/ML44 and Sempron 3100+, so the newer one should too. It wasn't just verified, problem is an outdated CPU support chart.
Just found the old K8N Neo FSR on german MSI site: http://www.msi-computer.de/produkte/main_idx_view.php?Prod_id=450 (board)

KT880 Delta and Amd Athlon XP Mobile

Does KT880 Delta will work with Athlon XP Mobile? PowerNow! features will work?
(AMI bios)

ordinary desktop boards won't support changing multiplier on the fly. only laptop mobos do this. mobile athlons XPs are only popular with overclockers, because of the unlocked multiplier in BIOS. not all mobos support Mobile Athlons though, some modifications may need to be done
however, the Athlon64 cpu's and mobos have "Cool n Quiet" technology, which follows the laptop PowerNow! feature, so when cpu is not heavily worked, the clock speed drops to 800mhz, allowing the CPU to run cooler and allows thermal controlled fans to operate slower i think this would suit you better

K8T Neo FIS2R and AMD DTR 3400+ compatability - Bios Update ?

As title , trying to install AMD64 DTR 3400+ cpu on mobo with no luck.
Currently running AMD64 3200+ on board with no problems. Install this cpu and no boot up can get as far a Bios set-up where i choose default optimal bios but then the system just hangs.
Have never updated bios , so i assume i'm still using V.1 ( had this set-up for almost 2 years )
Tried CMOS clearing , no luck.
As last resort ( after reading tales of disaster ! ) I tried to flash Bios to V 1.9 ( as reccommended for old clawhammers ) but didn't work ;
Created dos start up disk
at a> prompt , followed instructions to the letter , but kept getting "invalid drive" error messages.
So still using bios v.1
Any Help ??
Thanks,
Mark

Do you still have the old CPU? If so pop it in and run Live update and do a Bios Update. Do not let it do more than create the Flash disk and instyall the files on the flash disk. Shut down Live update at that point and take the 1.9 imge that you have and rename it to AMIBOOT.ROM and copy it onto the new floppy you made.
Shut down and go into Bios. Turn off Boot Block Virus protection and set the 1st Boot device to Floppy. Pop in the new floppy you made and reboot. Follow the instruction that come up on the screen. turn off the machine after the flash is done.
Go back into Bios and reset Optimal Defaults. Save and exit and then shut back down.
You should be fine at this point to install that new CPU.
