I have update the BIOS v1.3 as well..but didn't do any changes.. My DVD-RW connected to IDE controller.. that's only thing controlled by IDE.. don know how to fix this... I'm sure it can't be the PSU.. I changed my PSU 500W to 750W because of this matter.. I guess something wrong with the IDE controller.. only MSI can fix this... I'm waiting for a reply from them ... Please post if you having the same problem..thx

HEY GUYS FINALLY GOT A ANSWER FROM MSI Co.
According to this best thing is RMA..
Dear Kamal,
We have fixed this issue by changing C565 from 100pF to 220pF. All the stock had been reworked, and we have informed all the MSI™ Distributor locators.
So please get your MB for RMA.
As to the RMA, The normal procedure is to contact your reseller (the place you bought the board from) for repair/exchange , If the reseller for some reason like bankrupt cannot be contacted, then contact MSI distributor http://www.msi.com.tw/program/contact/where2buy/ or MSI office near your place http://www.msi.com.tw/program/about/w2b/index.php
Sorry for any inconveniency.
Best wishes,

K8N NEO2 Platinum Power off issue

More often than not lately, when I shut windows down, it just hangs at the powering off screen and does not actually power off. I have push the power button to complete shut down. Using Syar's easy Bios 1.C. Anyone with a fix? Thanks

Hello !!
I know it sounds a bit crazy but please try to set your windows swap file on the same partition ( C:\ ) like windows is.
I have heard people fixed their shutdown problem with it.....
Good luck
Greetz MurdoK
Yes, that is correct, I have had this problem before on another system where the swap file was on another partition, but not the case here. Swap file is on C:\
Thanks to all for the info, I really appreciate it and please keep it coming.

Issues when burning a DVD

I am unable to access my Computer info, and Software Versions right now, So I am just looking for a little Direction.
I exported a .mov from FCPX with Chapter info and used iDVD to make a DVD. The DVD was ejected, the iDVD window said it was done, but that I also had 1 minute left or something... Instead of the "Burn another" or "Done" options I Just had "Cancel". When I hit this it asked if I was sure I wanted to cancel, but I had no other option. It loaded up in the DVD Player but when I selected a chapter or hit skip the DVD player went crazy and the DVD Froze. I then lowered the write speed and tried it again. Everything went the same.
My last attempt was creating a disk image, then used Disk Utility to burn it to DVD. When I did this I got an error: "The burn failed because of a medium write error."
Would love to be pointed in the right direction. Could the .mov file cause this or does it sound like a Drive issue?
Any help would be appreciated. Sorry again about the lack of info.

Maybe Bengt Wärleby's post in this topic will help: Re: mes chapitrages bug
Don't worry. The OP posted in French but there's translations included.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

K9N SLI Platinum reboots while playing games

Hello,
System config
Athlon 64 3800+ x2
K9N SLI Platinum (Bios version 1.1)
2 * 1024 ocz 6400 gold memory
80 gig sata 1 drive
nec dual layer burner
Xfx 7600 gt xxx
floppy
PSU Coolmax AP-450 (CX-400)
The system is stable when I browse email and such, but as soon as I play games I'm getting reboots. Blue screen of death a couple times. I bought a couple more fans for my case (waiting to see if it makes a difference when it arrives). It may be getting to hot. I have been reading and perhaps the PSU is not good enough or compatible. I haven't checked the memory yet, But i would think that it would reboot consistantly not just in games if that were a problem. Does anyone have a solution for me?
Thanks,
LTBob

I had the same problems as you have.
The fix I did was, downloaded the drivers for AMD dual core processors from the AMD website.
Make sure you have your RAM set to 2.1V.
It's nothing to do with the PSU.
"It's nothing to do with the PSU."
cant agree, there is alot of issues with the same symptoms. it may crap or overload PSU also.

I have a MSI K9N SLI plat MB, an AMD 64 x2 4200 cpu, a EVGA nvidia 7600GS video card and 2gb mem.
My problem is that I am unable to get windows XP, XP64, or Vista to run on my IDE hard drive.
I am running XP from an SATA HD and it works OK. I have a CD/DVD and IDE HD on the IDE controller.
Updated BIOS to 1.3, no help.

K9N SLI Platinum MS7250 ver1.1 ... need help with Windows 7 install

Hello,
Having an intermittant issue with Windows 7 32bit. During startup Windows 7 gets stuck at the logo screen. Not always though. Every 7-8th reboot it will make it past and go all the way into Windows 7. I've tried all sorts of combinations of "ebabling/disabling". This system ran XP professional for 3 years without any issues. Currently, I have the most luck by connecting the keyboard and mouse to PS2 and leaving USB disabled. This may not be the issue though. Once I got Win7 to boot I performed driver updates etc.
If someone has suggestions please let me know. I'm about to try the USB bios flash but have never done it before.
Thank you,
BK
CPU: AMD 64 x2 5000+
RAM: 4GB Patriot Viper Series -- set to 2.1V per specs, 800MHz, setup in Dual Channel mode
Video: NVidia GeForce 7900GS
PSU: 600Watt CoolerMaster ATX12V 12volt rails push around 18amps and I'm using the additional power port for power to the video card
Bios ver: 1.3 (this is what shows on the splash screen at startup however CPUID shows 080014 - not sure what that means)
Motherboard: K9N SLI Platinum MS7250 ver1.1

Hi Guys,
Thank you for the replies.
- Yes it is a fresh install of Windows7 on a drive that originally had XP Pro
- If I boot into safe mode it does go into Win7 most of the time.
- I posted on the MSI tech support page (http://support.msi.com/index.php) and the response was to upgrade the BIOS. What do you think?
- I've been using this graphics card for three years and is nowhere near as powerful as what's out there now. In fact all of the components are three years old except the RAM
- I tried the old RAM (2GB Corsair) and it also had the same issue. Even at default RAM settings or otherwise. Now I'm back to the 4GB Patriot Vipers.
- What is this capacitor problem people are referring to? Is it a problem specifically on this model board?
Thank you..
BK

K9N SLI Platinum & 5600+ W/Bios 1.2 Question?

Hello all,
I recently purchased an X2 5600+ and will be installing it on my board in a couple of days when I receive the CPU. I currently have BIOS 1.2 on my K9N SLI Platinum board and was wondering if any of you know if that particular BIOS will recognize the new CPU? (5600+)
Several new BIOS versions have been released and the latest is 1.6 but I am a person who goes by... "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
Thanks in advance, and I look forward to hearing from you with insight.
The Ice!

Quote from: Piiooo on 26-April-07, 10:40:53
Just wanted to add my two cents.
BIOS 1.6 recognizes 6000+ as well, but it is a pain to update to 1.6 because a mobo with oroginal BIOS will not post
I did not have another CPU to flash BIOS, so what I did was just changing the multiplier in BIOS to 7 or 8, flashing the BIOS off a floppy drive and then changing multiplier back to 15.
Nice!
Thanks for providing a solution. I'm sure your discovery will help out a lot of people.
Cheers, the Ice!

Vista Beta 2 (v5472) + K9N SLI Platinum

Has anyone managed to get Vista installed from scratch with the "K9N SLI Platinum"?
I tried, 32bit and 64bit. both failed.

I got Vista Beta 2 32-bit installed on K9N Ultra + 4200+ X2, but because of the poweroff-issues of K9N-series, Vista was really unstable. Well, my mobo is RMA'd now, so let's see how's gonna work with the new revision.

Power calibration error when burning?

I get a power calibration error when burning from IDVD.
Any suggestions as to how to fix it?

Basically a power calibration is the drive writes to the blank and then tries to read it back and adjusts the laser power accordingly to get a proper burn. So there are a number of reasons you might get this problem.
One is the media itself. A bad disc or poor quality media might give you this error.
Next, you may have a dirty laser and running on of those cleaning CDs (they have little brushes on them to dust off the laser) might do the trick.
Third, could be a laser on the drive is giving up the ghost. Hopefully it is not the last one.

K9N SLI PLATINUM low data transfer rate

Hi, (sorry for my pour english) I had to go back to Winxp native SATA/IDE drivers and my pc crash & BSOD problem it's gone! :D (BSOD when i install some programs or some games, listening music and moving data at the same time, etc.) now i'm available to execute multitasks without any troubles. But now the transference it's quite poor , I think this is an easy and temporary solution for this big problem.
I bought my PC on 2006 and the Windows XP drivers are from 2001, aren't new Nvidia/MSI drivers to fix this annoying problem?
Thanks.

I've got nearly the same problem, but a little worse. My data transfer rate seems very slow for a 100mb network and if I start copying files over the network, after only a couple of megs I lose connectivity to the network completely! I've removed the network cable and windows notices this, and when I put it back in windows also notices the change, but the green and orange lights on the port itself stay on solid. If I reboot windows everything comes back. I don't have problems browsing the web, seems to only happen when the ethernat port is running close to full load (for the connection speed of 100mb as apposed to 1gb).
Anyone else seen this? I'm on the latest drivers, the latest bios and I've tried disabling on of the network ports in the bios but his didn't work.

MSI K9N SLI Platinum - SATA not hot-swappable?

can i get a confirmation that K9N SLI Platinum motherboard does NOT support hot-swapping the SATA drives. I switched to this board for the AM2 socket and now i am not seeing the removable drive bays as hot-swappable (ie. no green arrow down by the clock). maybe i am missing a bios setting?

I check two machines today and one is just fine using the removable trays and any drives we put in there show up in the 'safely remove hardware' tool. the other machines does NOT detect any drives inserted while the machine is powered on and something else - under the 'policies' tab the top two choices ('optimize for quick removal' instead of 'optimize for performance') are greyed out but there is an option below them that i can check and uncheck (i cannot remember the exact title of this option).
I assume you are trying the same drives when you swap the removable trays between the two machines. Some drives have a jumper that has to be removed to enable SATA II operation, so if they aren't the same physical drives you might want to check that.
I think the stuff below the greyed out area in your 'Policies' tab is a check box that enables/disables write caching. You might want to try checking/unchecking that.
Also, you should check out the IDE/ATA Controller selection in the Device Manager. Take a look at each instance of controller that shows up there. SATA controllers actually a primary and secondary channel and each channel has a master and a slave drive, just like old IDE controllers. Look at each tab on both machines and make sure all of the drive's features are set identically on these tabs. Sometimes Windows can try to outsmart you. For example, I have an SATA II Maxtor drive that has its transfer mode downgraded to SATA I by Windows (there is a little yellow triangle with a '!' in the middle of the lower part of the panel). The help balloon for this arrtibutes it to 'excessive transfer errors.' I haven't tried to chase that one down yet, however.
As far as setting the machines up the same way, sometimes the sequence of driver installations can have an effect. For example, a RAID driver installed during Windows setup using the 'F6 - install other driver' option can behave differently from one installed with the Device Manager 'Update Driver' function.
Sorry I can't be of more help here.
Maybe someone else in this forum is a bit more knowledgable on the subject.

K9n SLI Platinum + 4x1GB = Cold

Got som problems running my K9n SLI platinum with 2x VS2GBKIT667D2 (= 4x1GB dimms)
With 2x1GB DIMMs , it works fine, in any DIMM slots.
But when i put in all 4 of them I got Major Freezing problems.
Memtest86+ works fine.
But in XP it freezez, in Vista it freezes.
Trying to install Vista with 4GB it freezes before the installation program even starts..
Any helpfull thoughts?

V-ICE, there are at least 3 more people (myself included) who are having this "HT sync flood" error. All of us have K9N motherboards with V1.7 BIOS:
- K9N SLI Platinum + BIOS 7250v17 (V-ICE)
- K9N SLI Platinum + BIOS 7250v17 (TomMe)
- K9N4 Ultra-F + BIOS 7310v17 (zzkey)
- K9N Platinum + BIOS 7250v17 (Grawp)
I think there is a problem with those BIOS versions. I've had 3 K9N SLI Platinum boards, never had that error before. Only with my latest board + v1.7 BIOS.
Have you had any "overclock failed" messages so far?

Orange slot in MSI K9N SLI Platinum

Quick and Dirty:
What cards can I use in the Orange slot for in the K9N SLI Platinum?
Details:
I currently have the K8N Neo4 Platinum and am upgrading from 939 to socket AM2. I want the K9N SLI Platinum board but NEED 3 PCI slots. The three cards I need are Promise Ultra ATA/133 card, Soundblaster X-Fi sound card, Belkin wireless G LAN card. The K9N has three slots but that INCLUDES the orange slot but I don't know what its for.
I tried the wireless card in the orange slot but i can't get the drivers to install and "accept" the card. Works fine when I switch back to white slot. I'm afraid without 3 slots I cannot purchase the board. Any solutions?

Tried:
Raid card installed without a hitch, first time installing that in this system.
Also tried:
Moved X-Fi from two slots down into the orange slot, was working immediately after bootup. I'm psyched beyond belief.
Will be buying the K9N Platinum. Thanks for the info.

Sound Issue when burning an imovie HD projet with iDVD

I've just finished a 45 minutes movie with a rich sound track, using the video recorded sound, mixed with music & garage band loops and effects.
In Imovie, I've used a variable sound level adjustment to have a good sound mix. When playing with iMovie, everything is fine.
When burning my DVD, the volume levels in the soundtrack are incorrect with big sound variations each time i've used a mix of 2 sound effect, one with a decreasing volume, the other one with increasing sound volume at the same time for example.
Is there any known bug issue regarding this ?
Imac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)
Imac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Problem found !
Karls answer's helped me to findout the issue.
Nevertheless, this wasn't the bug.
When playing the movie in iMovie HD, sound rendering is not correct. When you burn your DVD, sound track is calculated to mix every sound tracks according to each sound volume curve defined in iMovie.
If you see a dot at the beginning of a sound track this mean that the DVD sound rendering will be incorrect.
Clean the and make sure that, when you select a sound object, you can change its volume by adjusting it, not manually, but using the general volume cursor. If not, you have a problem. Remake a perfect flat volume curve before adjusting it again.
