K9N series support Phenom 9500/9600/9700 ?

Hi i've read under Cpu support tab of K9N SLI platinum description web page that  Phenom 9500 / 9600 / 9700  are under testing ... any news if this processor can works with MSI K9N series mainboard?

***Urgent***
I've already had MSI motherboards working with CPUs that were being tested at the moment, all went fine.
However my K9N Platinum (with latest BIOS (1A)) doesn't even boot with my new Phenom, the monitor stays black!
I put the "old" X2 5000+ back in and everything worked fine.
Is there any way to fix it? Beta BIOS? Or do I have to buy a new motherboard? (I need this info as soon as possible, sorry)
Thanks in advance!!

Hmm... I didn't try to hijack this thread in any way!
I thought it was good for people to know that they have to pay attention! I don't want others to be disappointed after having spend a lot of money on a Phenom!
Thereby a workaround (which is in no way phenom specific, but general) would provide both a warning and solution for potential users of this combination.
Thanks for your help 
Take a look at the German Msi Forum   http://www.msi-forum.de/board.php?boardid=52
You have to click here:
Ich habe den Haftungsausschluß gelesen und bin damit einverstanden.
Have in mind the following:
I do not have the board so i do not know if a bios is working.
Modded or beta bios is not the best one.
Finaly i am sure that MSI will release a proper Bios.
Good luck

  • K9a platinum cpu support phenom 9500??

    does any one know yet if the msi k9a platinum will be able to support the phenom 95000?? msi say its still undergoing testing.     i need to know asap cause ill be buying one in this month , if any one can assist pl do
    thanks 

    yes and i dont have that amount of cash to pay for th k9a2 platinum R1500 wxcl vat if im lukky not a chance.
    on the gigabyte website it states clearly that all there 690v nd 690g mb support the phenom , i wud have bout a msi K9AG Neo2-Digital wich supports the phenom fine but does not support my current cpu wich is the 6000+ 125w version, so msi cant make 1 simple am2 mb that supports the 6000+ and phenom that is a decent mid to high end board that is my other complaint . i couldnt buy the K9AG Neo2-Digital cause of the cpu support problem and im sitting with the same issue with the k9a platinum i mean this is absolute .......

  • MSI K9A2 with Phenom 9500 problems

    I've been asking MSI technical support some questions and after a day or two they just delete the post without giving a reason, so this is nagging me now.
    Firstly, I've tried BIOS 1.0, 1.1, P0C, P0D and 113 BETA. The latter is the best one and I'm using it right now.
    Problems are many:
    1) Before I have booted up at NB frequency 3.1GHz and P95 4-cores over 1hr20mins no problems and ran over 30 benchmarks. Now suddenly I cannot bootup at even NB frequency above 2GHz. 
    I've booted over 2GHz NB frequency over 60 times neched/tortured stable on stock volts so that can't be the problem. This messes up overclocking completely.
    2) I have booted up HT reference clocks of 266MHz maximum. No crash. Now I can't even boot up 241MHz 
    What is happening, is the source code having problems?
    3) Why does AMD OverDrive 2.10 freeze my system if I start it? Why does it suddenly crash my system at stock? Enthusiasts have said its MSI BIOS issue. Whenever I change a single value in there or press "Apply" it will freeze my system. Any fix?
    4) Do you have any BETA BIOSes that I can test or modded BIOS yet? I will test them for you if you want because I'm testing this system now and need them. Yes I know the issues with BETA etc, I'm an ex-programmer.
    5) Why can I not run DDR2-1066 or higher than ratio 1:2? This is so limiting. Why is there no option for tRC higher than 26?
    6) Why can I not run HT from 2GHz-2.6GHz?
    7) Why can I not change CPU VID and if so, why does the system not POST?
    8) Why can I at times bootup 265MHz HT ref., bench it perfect, pass stability testing and at other time randomly the system will not boot up even if 1MHz above 200MHz?  >:(
    8) Why does CPU/HT speed downclock if I set NB speed higher than 2GHz or NB multi higher than 9x?
    *** Is there any fix to any of the above? I would like some information as soon as you can please, to know what Phenom performs like to sell it or keep it before Xmas.
    Thank you in advance. And FYI yes I know how to overclock using MSR Editor/Memset/AOD/AM2+ P-State Values/WPCREDIT, its dangers, how teh NB/HT/CPU speed and voltages are worked out etc. Mmy system is very well cooled in ambient 2-4C and I've only needed stock volts on everything to get 2904MHz screenable, 2860MHz benchable yet. But suddenly, after flashing this BIOS, things have gotten bad. 

    Thanks for the replies.

    Increasing the memory controller's operating frequency will increase performance for sure, but having the HyperTransport speed higher than 1GHz is pointless.
    Firstly, the HT frequency can never run above the NB frequency on Phenoms. The system will always make sure the NB frequency is higher than the HT frequency. So to get 2GHz-2.6GHz HT, we have to have high NB speed at 2-2.6GHz or above. But I can't increase NB frequency past 2GHz at all. I can't change NB and CPU VID which AMD said should be changeable and allows overclocking properly. They said its a BIOS problem. And having high HT is supported by Phenoms and should be easy. Which means either the BIOS/board is buggy or the CPU is buggy.
    Quote
    What other people get doesn't mean you will get the same results; overclocking is a gamble. Give the system some time to breath, run it at stock for a few days, then try overclocking again.
    I've had it for 3rd week now and gave it time, first two weeks stock. I think that's long enough. I know it's a gamble, but HT 2.6GHz is not a gamble, it's basic specs it should do with ease. Same with DDR2-1066. The board cannot run anything above  divider 1:2 and HT ref. is stuck at 260MHz for the CPU. Which means I cannot run above DDR2-1040 which is still less than my RAM rated speed. I also cannot run the tRC needed for those speeds. BIOS gives no options for it above 24. AMD said it's the BIOS bug.
    Quote
    The default HT 3.0 speed is 3600MT/s which I believe converts to 2600MHz. Try running the HyperTransport @ 2.6GHz so a x13 multi, then run everything else at stock. Try to see if everything clocks correctly and that the system is stable at stock.
    At stock the system runs:
    2200MHz CPU speed
    200MHz HT ref.
    5x 1000MHz HT link
    1800MHz NB speed
    I can't do above ~1980 on HT and NB no matter what BIOS/OD setting I choose. Absolutely no way, the system will either not POST or downclock automatically. :(

    Have you read about the Phenom's L3 cache bug? Could be a cause of crashes and what not...
    Yes. I've been thinking the same thing but how can I be sure if it's the CPU that's buggy?

    2) Reference clock of 300 here with considerable ease, BIOS 1.0. Might be the cpu that's holding you back...
    Yep, it's CPU. My X2 5000 BE can do 400 on the board easy. Maybe more, I've only booted with it 3 times just to check.
    Quote
    7) By CPU VID you mean Vcore? Only CPU voltage setting available in BIOS, works fine here.
    CPU VID is the Voltage ID to each individual core. It decides the Amps fed to each core and is locked on some systems and unlcoked on others AFAIK. It's different to VCore.

    *edit*
    Seems like this L3 cache bug might cause your Hyper Transport querks:
    Quote
    ...We tested at a 2.3GHz core clock with a 2.0GHz north bridge clock, because AMD told us those speeds were representative of the Phenom 9600. Our production samples of the Phenom 9500 and 9600, however, have north bridge clocks of 1.8GHz. Because the L3 cache runs at the speed of the north bridge, this clock plays a noteworthy role in overall Phenom performance. We've already confirmed lower scores in some benchmarks...
    Source
    Does AMD Overdrive provide you with the option to toggle the bug fix on/off?
    Hmm.. it looks like I cannot run anything above 1980 on NB or HT anymore.  NB frequency really does increase perf. I've tested 2GHz-3.1GHz before last week.

    Hi,
    its your lucky day my friend.
    Check this sites and download the drivers you need:
    http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
    http://www.omegadrivers.net/
    The drivers are native Nvidia/ATI drivers but the *.inf files (the files where the hardware information and the settings for the cards are listed) were fitted for mobile systems. That means you can install them on your machine and by the way you will get the most actual drivers.

    Does this driver improve sound quality or performance? Are there any tweaks?
    No, this driver does not improve sound quality nor increase performance.
    No, there are no tweaks.
    If someone states that its driver improves sound quality and performance, you are being fooled, cheated.
    It is even worse that the so called tweaks come from a person who is not EVEN technically acknowledged, does NOT know anything about Windows internals, software engineering and?sound?fidelity that all audiophiles always look for.
    If you "feel" the sound better, that is the infamous placebo effect and there is no real proof that any tweaks work.
    In fact, I have yet to see a driver that states in its release notes that it improves sound quality.
    I've disassembled about every single .SYS driver, .DLL libraries and .EXE executables and found nothing.
    There are some undocumented registry values, but nothing related to sound quality or performance.
    Would the so called tweaks even exist, they would be in my Support Packs, you can bet that.

  • Asha series support view asian language characters...

    i didn't own a asha phone. i am from malaysia.
    can asha series support view those asian language like chinese, japanese, korean characters in web browser, music player?
    can i switch different language interface? example chinese or japanese interface?
    is that also include those asian input method in the asha os? i can switch to chinese input method and type chinese characters? or switch to japanese input method type?

    Not aware of any Nokia Feature Phone still supporting Japanese. Furthermore, Nokia Belle (Nokia 700), Series 40 (Nokia 310) and Asha Software Platform (Nokia 502) come with a set limited to very few languages around Malaysia, that depends on the firmware variant (product code) of the bought phone. Nokia Care is able to flash to another product code, but cannot create any combination of language packs. They have to find a product code which contains your desired language packs.
    Therefore, I recommend to go for a Nokia Lumia phone. These use Windows Phone as operating system and within that, you are able to add Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Malay by yourself. And switching between them, is done with on tap on the keyboard.

  • K9N Platinum Supported CPU's

    Hi everyone,
    My question is fairly straightforward.  I currently have a MSI K9N Platinum AM2 NVIDIA nForce 570 Ultra MCP in my HTPC.  Long story short I found out that my CPU was not powerful enough to decode 1080p content so I have purchased a new CPU, a  AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+ Windsor 3.2GHz 2 x 1MB L2 Cache Socket AM2 125W Dual-Core Processor: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103228
    According to the CPU support list here:
    http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=prodcpusupport&prod_no=252&maincat_no=1
    I should be able to use this processor with my motherboard with BIOS 1.A, so I downloaded Live Update and flashed the BIOS to 1.A (I believe it now shows it as 1.10, though I am not sure where that is noted in POST) in preparation for the new CPU (the flash went fine).
    I am wondering if anyone has any experience using this motherboard with this CPU?  Is it truly compatible or the CPU simply too new an edition for my motherboard?  I can probably still cancel my order and get a 5600+ or equivalent if necessary.
    I appreciate any feedback/responses.

    Quote from: Bas on 11-March-08, 00:59:10
    I bet it's your videocard not handling it very well.
    Somewhere rings a bell that nVidia is lacking hardware decoding with videocards, but can't remember exactly what it was.
    Well that is the long story short part  :D.  In a nutshell yes it is my video card, I have a 7900GT and essentially nvidia's purevideo decoder for HD content has NEVER worked properly.  This basically means that the CPU has to handle the entire decoding load, which my old CPU is incapable of doing (hence all the stuttering, audio/video out of sync issues I get).  Basically I had two options:
    A) Buy an ATI, one of the 3xxx series that actually does x264 decoding
    B) Replace the CPU with a faster/better/dual core one (many codecs can now use dual-core CPU's for decoding HD content)
    In the end I made the decision to replace the CPU to resolve the problem because while buying a 3xxx series card does appear to work WONDERS for HD content decodes (it reduces the CPU load to 5-10% in some cases) if the file is encoded in some non-standard way that the GPU decoder doesn't recognize the load is going straight back to the CPU (like my Nvidia 7900GT is doing).  This way I figure I get a better CPU and it should be able to muscle it's way through decoding anything I throw at it.  If I need to replace the GPU someday or want to do it in order to reduce the load on the CPU I can always look into one of the 3xxx series (I hear that the nvidia 8600's might actually do some HD decoding as well) though I have really become skeptical of ATI cards lately.

    (**) - For Audigy 5/RX (SB1550) and Audigy 4 Series II (SB0612) this driver also supports Windows XP.
    (***) - Requires Audigy 2, Audigy 2 ZS ou Audigy 4
    Does this driver improve sound quality or performance Are there any tweaks ?
    No, this driver does not improve sound quality nor increase performance.
    No, there are no tweaks.
    If someone states that its driver improves sound quality and performance, you are being fooled, cheated.
    It is even worse that the so called tweaks come from a person who is not EVEN technically acknowledged, does NOT know anything about Windows internals, software engineering and sound fidelity that all audiophiles always look for.
    If you "feel" the sound better, that is the infamous placebo effect and there is no real proof that any tweaks work.
    In fact, I have yet to see a driver that states in its release notes that it improves sound quality.
    I've disassembled about every single .SYS driver, .DLL libraries and .EXE executables and found nothing.
    There are some undocumented registry values, but nothing related to sound quality or performance.
    Would the so called tweaks even exist, they would be in my Support Packs, you can bet that.
    Fixes and improvements:
    - Fixed Audigy 5/RX support.
    - Readded "EndPoint Utility" to enable the use of other digital devices to output Dolby Digital Live encoded audio.
    - Fixed driver installation issues on Windows 10.
    - Fixed Audigy "1" or Audigy 2 mute issue.
    - Audigy RX is now fully supported.
    - EAX Console now works on Windows Vista or later.
    - Karaoke effects now work properly on Windows Vista or later, just use EAX Console to enable them. Effects will only be applied to the Microphone input.
    - Sound Blaster Audigy Control Panel now available for all cards, but it lacks many settings available on Audio Console, so use the later.
    - Added instructions on how to install the Gameport.
    - Fixed missing speaker settings strings on Windows XP when DDL is enabled.
    - Improved driver installation, less confirmation prompts.
    - Improved setup procedure and scripts.
    - Removed Encode switcher for now, only DDL is available.
    - Installation now customizable, select what you want to install.
    - New integrated Post Driver Install Helper tweaks the driver without tampering certificate.
    - CMSS2 is now available.
    - OpenAL 64-bit support.
    - Dolby Digital Live now works on Windows 8.1 (update 1). Creative Audio Service was not being installed on that OS.
    - Special FX, Advanced EQ, Studio and Custom presets now available on Windows Vista or later.
    - Audio Console does not crash anymore on non-English localized installs. Localized resources for Online Karaoke tab were missing; added mostly localized Korean and Chinese (Traditional) resources.
    - Online Karaoke page is available for all Audigy cards on Windows Vista or later; this is NOT a new feature, but an easier way to configure the Microphone.
    - EAX Settings for Windows Vista or later includes EAX Studio, a fancy version of EAX Control Panel, no changes in functionality, except the Test button now works.
    - Added fully localized Korean and Chinese (Traditional) resources for EAX Studio, which were missing.
    Undocumented fixes by Creative (not listed in the release notes):
    - Headphone mode now sticks and does not revert automatically to Speakers mode on Windows Vista or later.
    - Special FX, Advanced EQ and Studio presets were not working on Windows Vista or later.
    Release Notes:
    IMPORTANT: Driver uninstall on Windows Vista or later
    The included driver for Windows Vista or later has a bug that causes a stop (blue screen) error when unloaded by disabling the Audigy or uninstalling the driver.
    To workaround this issue, run the KillDrv.exe utility included and restart when asked to do so. Proceed normally and uninstall all the software or only the driver.
    If you have previously installed the Audigy 5/RX driver, you MUST run this utility.
    As the KillDrv verify the driver version installed, running it won't do any harm, even if the driver version is not affected.
    HOW TO INSTALL THE GAMEPORT DRIVER
    You can find a Gameport\ReadMe.htm file in the folder where you unpacked the Support Pack.
    Just follow the steps shown in the screenshots.
    WINDOWS 8.1 OR LATER DOES NOT SAVE SETTINGS
    - Configure all settings and shutdown. Your settings will be saved.
    - This does not work if you disable Fast startup permanently or temporarily (by holding the Shift key while shutting down).
    - On Windows 10 you need to run the application with Administrator privileges (right-click and choose Run as Administrator). This is valid for all applications used to configure the card.
    OpenAL 2D benchmark in RightMark 3DSound crashes your system
    The included driver for Windows Vista or later has a bug that crashes your system if you run the OpenAL 2D benchmark using 63 buffers.
    No problem With 62 or fewer buffers.
    OpenAL 3D and OpenAL 3D + EAX benchmarks are not affected.
    Details: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (0x000000D1) - ctoss2k.sys
    There is no DirectSound hardware acceleration on Windows XP 64-bit (x64) with 4GB RAM or more
    The Audigy driver does not support 64-bit addressing, disabling the DirectSound hardware acceleration and causing multichannel sound to be played only in the stereo channels (front left/right).
    Workarounds:
    - install the 32-bit (x86) version of Windows XP.
    - limit to less than 4GB the amount of RAM available to Windows.
    - enable the "Memory Hole" setting in the BIOS Setup, if your motherboard supports it.
    - install and use Creative ALchemy to convert the DirectSound API calls into OpenAL, which is not affected by this issue.
    Karaoke effects make the audio play in mono
    You can avoid this issue by using EAX Console to enable Karaoke effects. Audio Console is affected by the issue.
    Optionally, follow the steps below.
    Open EAX Settings, select a Karaoke effect, then click the Edit button.
    Click on the Source (Wave) tab and change the Original sound to 100% and Pitch Shift to 0%. Click the Save environment button.
    Repeat the steps for all Karaoke effects.
    These changes will be valid only for the current speaker configuration. If desired, repeat the same process for each speaker configuration.
    MediaSource DVD-Audio Player system requirements
    - 32-bit edition of Windows XP or later
    - any Audigy 2, Audigy 2 ZS or Audigy 4 card
    Built-in Decoder on Windows Vista or later
    To use the built-in decoder, make sure it is enabled in Audio Console.
    Select "SPDIF Out (Creative SB Audigy (WDM))" as the output device of your player and then configure the AC3/DTS filter to send the stream through SPDIF.
    When you restart your computer, the Tone settings (Bass and Treble) are not applied.
    Just readjust one of the controls one time per boot.
    Equalizer and EAX effects are not available when using OpenAL or ALchemy
    Only Tone (Bass and Treble) and CMSS 3D (CMSS, CMSS2 and Stereo Surround) features are available.
    There is no sound in games with OpenAL support
    Disable Advanced EQ and Special FX by selecting "No effect" before running the game or program.
    Equalizer settings are not applied after using OpenAL or ALchemy
    After you run a game with OpenAL support or using Creative ALchemy, the Equalizer settings are applied.
    Just run Equalizer and the saved setting is loaded automatically.
    Tone settings are lost when speaker configuration is changed
    Bass and treble settings reset to their default values when speaker configuration is changed.

And when I try to test the signal through the audio settigs it says "The device is being used by another application. Please close any devices that are playing audio to this device". I cant think of any other device running. When I untick the Enable Dolby Digital Live I can get stereo sound again. The DDL is authenticated. The cable is working. The amp is fine. I neeeeed help....
    Unfortunately I don't have a sample card to test personally and don't know anyone with an Audigy 5/RX.
    Anyway, I have a suggestion.
    Run EndPtUtl.exe found in the Audio Console installation folder.
    If the issue still persists, try to use the Digital Output (Coaxial/Optical) of another device, provided that you have any on your computer.
    EndPtUtl.exe enables the use of any device for outputting encoded audio.

  • Does Tx2z series support SDHC??

  • 2500 series support mobility groups?

    Do you know if the new 2500 series controller supports things like mobility groups?  Could I use 2 of these and do inter-controller roaming.
    Also do you know if this would work with a 2106 controller and a 2505 controller or are they 2 completely independent controllers only knowing about their own APs??

    Hi smailmilak,
    no mobility and roaming is not the same. You need for roaming between controllers a mobility configuration.
    If you have only one 2500 WLC and 25 or more or less AP roaming between the AP on the one WLC will work well.
    This calls Intra-Controller roaming
    If you have 2 or more WLCs you need a proper mobility config for roaming between APs located on differen WLC.
    This Calls Inter-Controller roaming.

  • Does the WLC 5500 Series support LLDP?

    We have 2 WLC 5508s running v7.0.98.0 and 70+ 1230, 1240, & 1250 series LWAPs.  We are currently enabling LLDP because we will be installing some non-Cisco switches in the near future.  Does the WLC5508 and the access points it controlls support LLDP?

    Hi David:
    The Data Sheet for the 5500 series wireless LAN controllers is at
    http://tools.cisco.com/squish/b7D77
    That data sheet does not currently list LLDP (as LLDP) or IEEE 802.11AB as supported protocols in the product as it sits today.
    I would encourage you to contact your Cisco SE, Cisco account team or Cisco authorized wireless reseller, and let them know you think that this support would be valuable to the wireless LAN controllers.  The "sales side of the house" has procedures in place to gather and accumulate input from the customers they serve, and forward it to the respective business units within Cisco for possible inclusion in future releases of Cisco's products.
    Sincerely,
    Rollin Kibbe
