K9N2 Diamond shuts down upon install of Windows

I am new to MSI and have started w/ an K9N2 Diamond. I have fully assembled the system and have run into a problem when starting a installation of Windows. I have no troubles entering BIOS and can stay there for any length of time. My problems start as soon as Windows tries to install (Windows 7). The white bar that goes from left to right gets about 90% across and then shuts the system down. I have tried this repeatedly w/ the same result. During the 5 - 6 attempts I was still able to try and boot from BIOS, still no problem with BIOS starts.
My system is comprised of the following:
1 MSI K9N2 Diamond Mobo
2 AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black
3 8gb Kingston HyperX 800mhz
4 Antec Truepower 750w
5 XFX 9800 GXT+
6 WD 750gb HDD & WD 300gb HDD (only 750 connected for initial install)
7 DVD/CD RW drive (SATA)
I have tried moving the SATA cables to different locations and switched HDDs, each w/ the same outcome. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

It's not a restart. All but the processor and memory are equal to the system the PSU was pulled from! The PSU is only 6 months old. I took apart this build, which it was running fine.
ASUS A*N32 SLI Deluxe, 4gb 800mhz Kingston HyperX, 2 XFX 9800GTX+ in SLI, 2 HDD (same one in this build, again only using one), 2 dvd-rw/ cdrw drives, a zelman 939 series cpu cooler.
So in either case (ASUS or MSI build) I'm not over powering the PSU.
If I pull a couple sticks of ram could this make a difference?
Thoughts?

I have a 27" iMac mid 2011 2.7 GHz intel core i5 with OS 10.10.1. For about the last month when I shut down I get a window that says "Continue the installation Choose abort if you wish to cancel the installation ABORT   YES".   If I don't press anything or if I choose ABORT or Yes the message goes away and the computer shuts down. But the next time I use the computer and then shut down the message is back. I have looked to see if there are any downloads pending or if there are any updates trying to download. I am very puzzled.

If you normally open with Organizer perhaps it is encountering a corrupt image in its cached folder on opening.
I just installed PSE 10 and set up a shortcut to go right to the full editor. See if that works for you.
If you have a lot of disk activity on starting, more than usual, previously installing certain plug-ins requires PSW to rebuild its cache system where these are stored.
In Organizer if you can set a preference to not open up the last folder used automagically, you might get it to start. Then when selecting folders to browse you can note which folder causes a crash. If you start the editor directly perhaps in preferences you'll find an Organizer setting to try this out.

I lost the session cookie in IE 6.0 when I shut down a pop-up window.

We have a problem with the session cookies.
We are using IAS 6.0. We now have a problem that only occurs when we use Internet Explorer 6.0. It works in IE 5.5.
If we log on to the site, opens a pop-up window and shut down the pop-up window again.
We loses the session and we have to log on again.
Any ideas?
Thanks Anders

Hi Anders
What are the contents of the Pop windows and is it an error pop up window. Which service pack are you using with iAS. Maybe thereis some dependencies with the Browser because of usage of some mime types supported by the Browser. Is this behaviour occuring when you invoke your application on other machine with IE6.0 Browser or is this only with one of the machine. Do you see any kind of error messages in the log files. Is this behaviour only with your application or is it with other sample applications too.
Please Let me know...
Cheers

Pavilion g6 Notebook Restarts upon Shut Down/Hibernate/Sleep after Windows 8 Upgrade

Hello,
I've been dealing with this issue for several months now, since I upgraded from windows 7 to windows 8. My computer will no longer correctly shut down, hibernate or sleep- everytime I do one of those things it restarts. To be more specific, it will shut down when I ask it to, but upon turning it on again, no matter what amount of time passes it will restart rather than start up and once the operating system is up it gives a hopelessly vague 'your PC encountered a problem' message. It has NOT shown me the blue screen. The error message is a banner across the screen asking if I would like to submit details. When I close the machine, my settings tell it to hibernate, and upon opening it, it restarts.
Initially, I had another huge problem with windows 8 refusing to update anything- itself, or any of my programs, it would go all the way through the process only to fail at the very end. Everytime it restarted inappropriately it would attept to update, fail, then 'revert changes'. So I did a Windows 8 'refresh' which solved the updating errors and everything should be currently up to date.
HP Pavilion g6-1c40ca Notebook PC
Product Number: A1V30UA
I have a pretty miniscule understanding of computers, but I had a friend do some research for me and he said he couldn't find any other people experiencing this problem. We tried updating all my drivers. The best we could come up with is that Windows 8 isn't completely compatible with my machine.
I would really appreciate some help on this subject and I am a student and I drag my laptop around with me all day and it gets pretty time consuming to wait for it to restart when I need it between classes.
Thanks!
Ella

Hello Ellabelle,
Your computer will not wake up correctly.
It sounds like you may need to completely reinstall windows 8.
Here is a link to all the driver updates for your system.
At the top of the page there is an option to scan now and let HP scan your system for missing and out of date drivers.
Use this option.
Let me know how everything goes.

Adobe CS6 Apps Shuts Down After Installing Creative Cloud.

I can't start my Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign CS6 anymore, it just shuts down as soon as it's done loading, without any errors. Only Bridge CS6 will start.
I tried launching with Ctrl+Alt and Ctrl+Alt+Shift but it did not work.
Then I tried uninstalling it (With all the preferences as well), and install it again, that did nothing - still the same issue.
I updated windows and my gfx drivers (GeForece 332.21 - NVS4200M) after the issue started.
I tried both the 32bit and the 64bit version.
I have manually removed the preferences file.
I have disabled the firewall and my AV.
I have logged out and back in of the Creative Suite Utility.
My hosts file is not blocking any sites.
I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.
I tried to open a issue on superuser but that did not help, nobody has awnsered it yet.

Nicoar do you receive any specific error messages? I would recommend starting with the steps listed in Error "Failed to Install" Creative Cloud Desktop application - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/failed-install-creative-cloud-desktop.html.

8.1 can't shut down after installing itunes

I recently reformatted and did a clean install of window's 8.1
I have done all updates, both windows and drivers and the machine is very smooth and stable.
After installing iTunes the computer will no longer shut down, it displays the logging off / shutting down screen but then just reboots.
I have attempted numerous resolutions to no avail, i.e. disabled NIC as bootable device, disabled the hybrid boot feature & flashed and tweaked some BIOS settings.
The computer will not even shut down when I give the command "shutdown /s /t 0"
I only had Windows Office and iTunes installed on the computer and suspecting that iTunes may be the culprit, I uninstalled it and now the computer shuts down without any issue.
I have since read several threads about iTunes and shutdown/restart issues with 64 bit versions of Windows although I have not found anyone else with my exact issue.
Is anyone aware of a resolution for this?
For now I will need to install iTunes so I can sync my phone and then uninstall so I can shut down!

Fingers crossed there will be an update for this, I was lucky that my install so was new that there weren't very many things that could have caused it because I don't think it would have ever occurred to me that iTunes was the issue.
I literally tried every other possibility before waking up in the middle of the night and realizing that the problem started right after I installed iTunes.
I have had issues with Apple software in the past where I attempt to disable it from launching automatically when I boot the computer and it will simply create another entry for itself in the startup list.
If I disable that one it makes another, and another and another.... It's like the freaking Apple hydra.
The want me to know how much I need them! lol

Hi Ted,
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
Ignore the MacKeeper ad no matter what else you decide.
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.
Just sits there occupying very little space & never interfering, unless you need to invoke it in Single User Mode.

Problems shutting down after installing 10.5.3 update?

Has anyone had any problems shutting down there IMac's after installing 10.5.3 update? I've tried shutting down twice and the image that appears when shutting down seems to go in an endless loop an doesn't shut down.

Can you restart from the menu and hold the shift key down, until the Mac
boots in a SafeBoot login screen; then choose Disk Utility (shortcut under
GO in Finder window, to Utilities folder) and run 'repair disk permissions'
then restart the computer normally...(?)
You may also have to consider starting the computer from the OS X
installer disc and choose from an option menu there (not to install)
and choose to use Disk Utility from the booted installer disc, to run
'repair disk' from there? You could also run 'repair disk permissions'
while booted from that installer disc, but maybe you'd still have to
repair those from the running system for best effect once it is back
running from the hard drive's system.
Some minor issues can happen after an update, usually just repairing
disk permissions before installing the update, and/or running up in
SafeBoot, can help. There are other things to try and do, if these don't
help that much. The state of the system prior to an update is important;
since an update can't fix anything otherwise non-related to an update.
Maintenance issues aside, after you repair disk permissions, safeboot,
and restart, if there still is an issue, you could try to download the Combo
OSX 10.5.3 update file and install it over your system; and then repair
disk permissions again after it finally restarts normally.
Was the 10.5.3 update a smaller (delta) file or was it the Combo (large) file?
Good luck & happy computing!

USB Headphone Mic shutting down upon opening Ventrilo

I've had my Fatality headset for a solid 6 months now. A couple of nights ago, after logging off of my vent serverto go onto another server, I lost the "ability" to speak. I can hear everything fine (vent, TS, "in game", music, movies).
My push to talk, and setting in Vent Setup, are all set (L-Alt and USB Headset). My outbound/inbound settings are where I've always had them. The mute buttons are set to off also. What I've noticed is that on the Volume Control of the headset the "on air" light turns off as soon as I log onto a vent server or try to use the Windows media recorder. When I turn those things off, the light comes back on. When I run the setup of Ventrilo, the light comes back on, but when I try to engage the Test Mode (in the Setup menu) the light shuts down (and thus the mic does also).
I've tried testing the hardware (via Control Panel>Sounds), but when I get to the stage where I'm asked to speak and the mic is engaged, the light turns off (and I assum I'm muted).
I've updated to the new drivers about 10 minutes ago, with no fix. I reapplied the latest (October) firmware as well.

Yep..exact same thing happened to me. I plug in my older Logitech into onboard jacks..fine. Plug in the USB Fatality, vent stops working, have to restart. So, desperate gamer that I am, I shoot out the Microcenter and pick up a Fatality headset with 3.5mm jacks instead of USB (frankly..its been flaky since day 1). Started fine, but after a "mic check" I got complaints of robot and garbled voice..then nothing. 3 minutes..completely unusable. I tried changing the settings(in Vista) and the Sounds panel would crash when I tried to set the headset mic as default as opposed to "What you hear." general exception faults..uninstalled/reinstalled all software and drivers. I then install my Fatality X-Fi XtremeGamer card, still no dice..restart, and the old Logitech works. plug in the Fatality, dead. I sighed a few times, then I tried another card, X-Fi XtremeMusic. I wasn't expecting much and thats what I got, nothing. So I am back to the onboard sound and a 2 year old Logitech head set with no left ear action, but it works. It seems interesting I am only having problems with the Fatality stuff.

K8N Diamond shutting down with FX-57

Hi all,
My water cooling solution suffered a water pump failure which in turn led my comp to shut down after hitting the heat safety ceiling of 60deg. I replaced the water pump, turned back on only get CMOS checksum errors. I tried to enter BIOS setup but the system would not enter the setup, instead just displaying a flashing underscore immediately after the SilRAID startup screen. I reset the BIOS via the SW1 Clear CMOS button and also by disconnecting power and removing the battery. Neither did any good. I then reflashed the BIOS to v1.8. Flash was succesful but still could not enter BIOS setup. I need to get in there because I run a RAID0 array off the Nvidia RAID controller which needs to be configured within the BIOS.
I presumed the mobo was damaged during the cooling failure so tried using another K8N Diamond from another computer. After turning on the comp, it promptly shut down after around 15 seconds, never making to attempting a load of the OS. The more I tried to turn it on, the quicker it would shut down to the point where it would shut down after 2-3 seconds. I thought something was overheating so checked all fans, replaced the water cooling with the stock AMD cooler, left it to cool for hours - it still shut down within seconds.
I feared that perhaps the CPU was damaged when the cooler failed so I tried to swap the CPU's from the problem computer and another computer. Both the FX-57 from the problem comp and the FX-53 from my other comp ran fine on the other's mobo, managing to complete benchmarking / run games / stay on overnight. So the CPU was fine.
I thought it was simply that the second K8N Diamond just didn't get along with FX-57, for whatever reason, maybe just those two particular components were not working seeing as I had no problem with the original K8N Diamond staying powered. So I bought a brand new K8N Diamond, installed, powered on - same problem!!! Computer shuts off in less than 5 seconds again...
I tried alternative PSU's (Silverstone 600w and Thermaltake 680w), two vid cards (each of my 7800GTX 512's), diff memory (Corsair 2-2-2-5 and OCZ EL Dual Channel Platinum Elite), stock cooler / water cooler, with and without HD's connected / powered. Even tried booting with just the CPU, CPU cooler and graphics card plugged in and drawing power - still shuts down in 3 seconds.
I'm at a loss to explain this and not to mention extremely frustrated. The computer ran fine for 3 months, staying powered 24 / 7 but after the cooling failure, I can't even get it to boot on 3 different K8N Diamonds and all different components. Yet an FX-53 in any of them works fine, and the FX-57 on another motherboard is fine.
After all that, does anybody have any ideas / suggestions? Any help would really be appreciated. Otherwise I'm off to buy my 3rd! () motherboard for this comp, and after all this hassle, it won't be an MSI should it come to that. Sad because before this, I had a good experience with MSI.
Thanks in advance for any help...

OK you tried a different MB, CPU and RAM... What else did you have in the system when it failed that you haven't swapped out? The Vid card maybe.
If the board works with an FX 53 and not the FX 57 that would lead me to think right off that the chiop was cooked. Yet if it works in another rig then that scraps that idea. And it sounds like you chasing your tail in these other items as well. My first thought would also be a PSU and maybe the one you swapped in was not heavy enough to handle the load. You did not say so that is also suspect.
You may have to use that second rig as a temporary testbed to check each part out until you find what failed as well. You may have messed up more than one part and you could chase yourself forever trying stuff in the machine that dropped the pump.
