K9N6PGM2-V

Can anyone confirm me which cpu's this board takes? By what I read on MSI's website it looks like it can go all the way up to a Phenom II.
Thx

It has a list on their website that shows all the processors that are supported here: http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=prodcpu2&prod_no=1472&maincat_no=1
Ok, thanks. Thats the one I was looking at. I just wanted to be sure I was right because I didn't think the mobo supported some of those procs when I bought it. Cheers!

Athlon II 265 on K9N6PGM2-V

Hi, I'm using a MSI K9N6PGM2-V and I'm thinking about upgrading the processor pretty soon. At first I was thinking of a AM3 Athlon II 260, since it's pretty much the best of the ones on the list of supported processors for what I'll be using it for. However, the new Athlon II 265 has just been released, It's got the EXACT same specs on everything as the 260, only it's clocked 100MHz higher, and after reading about people using processors (not the 265, but other processors) that aren't on the supported list I was thinking a 265 shouldn't be a problem? Btw, I'm using the latest BIOS version, 7309v99

Well perfect time to post this,I've inherited from a buddy an Phenom II X4 945 (95watts),he went to intel.I'm using the same motherboard you are with bios ver 9.5.I just popped it in and it works fine.The extra two cores make an amazing difference( I had a Phenom II dual core 545 cpu before).I know it doesn't say it's supported in the list,but if it can support an older Phenom x4 (95w) and a newer Tri-core PhenomII (95w),I thought I'd take a chance and try it,glad I did!
Alright, great news! I'll be buying a 95W AM3 CPU too then. I just can't thank you enough!

K9N6PGM2 Higher Resolution Display Modes not Available

Hello,
I've updated a computer with a K9N6PGM2, NVIDIA GeFORCE MCP61P + Nforce 430 chipset, motherboard and am having problems with video modes.
Via the control panel window:
Dell 1701FP (analog) on nVidia GeForce 6150SE nForce430
BIOS 5.61.32.25.15
Modes supported 640 X 480, 16 COL Default refresh
Modes supported 800 X 699, 16 COL Default refresh
Driver 5.1.2001.0
The board is not overclocked.
First problem: On the display setting tab only 800 X 600 and 4 bit color are listed as options. This doesn't match the modes supported info.
Second problem: Where are the higher resolution and deeper color modes?
I've read articles about the chipset and they say "VGA" is supported. Does this mean only resolution above the old VGA specification, 640X480 and 800X600? I've used older MSI boards, nForce2 for example, and the higher modes are supported.
On a similar MSI nFORCE board where high resolution is supported the shared VGA memory value was 64k. As an experiment I increased the share on this new board first to 128 then 256k. While resolution and color depth settings are now available selecting them results in an error message indicating the mode selected is invalid.
I'd appreciate any suggestions of where to go from here.
Thanks
Ed

Thanks for the quick reply.
Updated drivers have been installed but no change is apparent. I can change the resolution and color depth settings under "settings" in the monitor tab of display. Same error message, invalid settings. Afterward the expanded rage of settings is replaced by 800X600 only with a color depth of 4 bits.
Additional suggestions appreciated.
Ed

Motherboard k9n6pgm2

Just bought this motherboard brand new ( whole PC is brand new materials) and for some reason I get no video on my screen.
Ive tried the following: Unplugging the Graphic card and booting again with on board didn't work.
A friend told me to hard reset the motherword with the 3 pins located above the sata pluggins. My question is on which 2 pins
should be connected to run the bios normally. This isn't anywhere in the manual :( And will a hard reset work?

K9N6PGM2-V No Audio

Hello,
Can someone please help, I have 3 MSI K9N6PGM2-V Boards and the onboard audio doesnt seem to work on any of them... I have struggled for hours with these, the drivers have been installed from the CD, then I have also tried the drivers from the MSI drivers page and its still the same thing.
The systems are running Windows XP Pro, device manager shows an Unknown PCI Device on each of the systems when the HD Audio is activated in Bios, I have tried all the drivers I can find, however nothing is picked up for the sound... I have even tried Realtek HD Audio drivers from their site with no success...
Can someone tell me if there are any other drivers or are all 3 of these boards faulty
Live Update crashes when searching for updates each time... I dont know how to update the BIOS on these...
Thank You

MSI AMD Boards/K9N6PGM2-V AMD co-processor driver

Acknowledging that this is an older board, K9N6PGM2-V (MS-7309-090), I hope there is some hope of help available.
I built this PC a number of years ago with an AMD Athlon II X2 240 CPU (2.8) and it has been as solid as a rock, running Win XP-Pro, since I first hit the switch. I was so impressed with how stable the M.S.I. A.M.D. system was, I built another, more powerful, system based on the same platform. The machine also has an MSI N430GT MD2GD3 video card. I recently upgraded the OS to Win 7 32 bit HP. I have downloaded and run the following files from the MSI site:
M7309 v1.2.zip
mcp_732_mb.zip
nvidia_30697_8732_vga.zip
The B.I.O.S. are the original, as shipped. I would, if necessary, flash the B.I.O.S. with the latest version.
There are 2 issues:
1. Device Manager shows an alert with the co-processor (no driver installed). An alert I have never seen before. I assume that all I need is the correct .inf file, but I can't seem to find it.
2. There are 4 Gb of R.A.M. installed (2x2 Gb D.D.R.2 PC2-6400 Un-Buffered NON-E.C.C. Crucial), which Win 7 recognizes, but the system only shows 3.25 Gb usable. It was my intention to use 8 Gb. of R.A.M. (4 Gbx2), since the both the Mainboard and the OS will support it. I'm just not sure about the memory controller. I checked the A.M.D site, but couldn't find the specifications on this older C.P.U. There would be no point to installing 8 Gb if I can't use more than 3.25 Gb. I don't know if this is a problem with the co-processor not having a driver, or if some, but not all of the chip-set drivers installed properly.
I hope I have provided enough information, but, if not, please advise.
Any help anyone out there can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
T.

Thank you for your reply. It's encouraging to know that there are people here who care about others who are having problems.
The MB was purchased new, not 'refurbished' or used.
I checked the MB, as per the photo shown. It is without question K9N6PGM2-V. The label on the B.I.O.S. chip is pale green, as in the photo. With a magnifying glass, I can clearly see 'A7309' on the top row and either 'NMS940' or 'NMS94()' (can't be sure which, it's really small).
The file 'M7309v1.2.zip' is the MB manual.
As I suggested to 'badboy2k' in a previous post, I decided to re-run the 'mcp_732_mb.zip' file (System & Chipset Drivers). This time I saw dialog boxes I didn't see the first time. Surprise, surprise, there is no longer a 'co-processor' error in Device Manager. I guess something didn't run the first time. It also offered to install the nvidia ForceWare Ethernet configurator, which I didn't get the first time. So it looks like my lesson is, if it doesn't do it right the first time, run the setup again.
The PC is now running fine, with no warnings in Device Manager.
Thanks again to all who helped.

Is my K9N6PGM2-V mobo defective?

I've been working at building my first computer with high hopes, but have had nothing but troubles with it thus far, I'm worried if my motherboard is the problem, otherwise Idk what all is wrong.
My hardware is as follows;
MSI K9N6PGM2-V GeForce 6100 Socket AM2+ MB with the most recent bios I could get from MSI Live Update
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ 3.0Ghz processor, with this fan/heatsink and Arctic Silver paste http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1683510302 4
2 sticks of Kingston DDR2 1Gb Pc2-5300 667Mhz ram
and a PNY Verto GeForce 8600GT 512mb card model VCG86512GXEB
In this pre-powered case http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?Sku=TC3J-4030%20P (I know the no name PSU sucks, but I;m using it until a new one arrives in the mail.)
The first problem I've encountered before in stalling the video card is a high CPU temp, when in bios, it sits at around 54-58C according to the bios. Ignoring the high temp, I installed Windows XP, and updated all the drives and motherboard, as well as downloaded all the windows updates. It still ran fine, aside from the higher heat. A utility from MSI claims it is running cooler than what the bios tells me, claiming that while Windows is at idle, it's only running at about 33C. When I boot the computer I keep getting a CMOS Checksum error, and have to keep telling the mobo to load optimal settings. I also have not been able to get my PNY graphics card to function when I hook it up. I get vga output from it when I first install it and power on, but then once going past the CMOS checksum error, and telling it to load optimal, the computer restarts with neither the onboard, or the graphis card giving off any vga output, so I'm left staring at a blank monitor, while the computer boots and loads windows... I've gone in and disabled onboard vga, as well as tried a few different settings on vga memory sharing, with no change in results. As you can probably tell I'm a complete noob at trying to build my own pc, but from what I gather the temps my cpu is reaching is at the max tolerances, and I haven't even put the case side walls back on yet... My only thought on the temp is that I need a better heatsink/fan combo, but at at a complete loss as to the rest. Any help anybody can offer would be great
sorry for such a long post...

I have no clue how to tell the max 12v amp, it's not written on the packaging for the cpu, as I bought it OEM from TigerDirect, and as for the fan, this is the second time I've redone the cooling grease. I had left the stock gunk on the fan the first time, with the same results, boy was that stuff a mess to get off. I'm worried about doing the thermal grease many more times, as I don't really know a good way to clean and apply the stuff without getting it all over. I cleaned off the original stuff with a Q tip and a small bit of rubbing alcohol, and used a credit card to apply the stuff. Like I said, I'm completely new to this...

MSI K9N6PGM2-V2 -WinXP Home- Eide HDD -

I purchased this MSI K9N6PGM2-V2 MB with a Bare Bones kit from Tiger. I assembled everything and put in an old Maxtor Eide 120 Gig HDD from
my wife's previous computer so I could clone it to a Seagate Barracuda 500 Gig that came with the kit.
It would come up to a green error screen with some instructions and hex info if I tried to boot normally.
So I went to Safe Mode and tried to load drivers from the CD and it came up with an error message ... DVD "Failed to Load Hardware Monitor Driver" . I went through various setups
in the Bios and took out the sata DVD drive and installed an Eide DVD at the end of the HD cable all with the same results.
I started thinking it was a video problem so I changed the Bios setup from the default PCI to the Internal setting and went to the display settings in Safe Mode.
There was no info or ID about a video chip set just "unrecognized". I disabled the driver and figured if I rebooted it might recognize the Nvidia chips.
No Dice. But... Now I cant get past the text loading screen for Safe Mode, it just hangs at Drivers\Mup.sys. if I try to load Windows normally I no longer get the green error screen
but do get a powder blue Windows Copyright screen that's all jumbled and then it hangs also. It sometimes has a splash of orange but mostly just blue.
So... I still think it's a video thing but where do I go from here without being able to get into Safe Mode?
Is there a jumper to disable the internal video on this board or just in the Bios setup.
I have UBCD4Win and that loads in fine off the CD with multiple VGA resolutions but how do I get my XP Home to correctly recognize this MB's video ?
How do I get Safe Mode to fully load again?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

CPU for K9N6PGM2-V

I am about to buy a K9N6PGM2-V and need to select a processor. The PC will only be used to control a machine tool so I was looking at the Atlhon 64 LE-1660. The version that appears on the MSI CPU compatability list says it has a 512K L2. My vendor says it has a 1024K L2. Are there two versions and will the 1024K work on this motherboard?
Many thanks.

Quote from: Bas on 29-June-09, 21:59:29
Why not order in Belgium? They speak french too, and we have plenty selection over here.
I will PM you a supplier that does mail-order.
Hi Bas,
Sorry for the delay in getting back, I was away on biz. I got the PM and sorted out the CPU. I went for the Athlon 64 5050+ in the end.
Thanks for all your help it is greatly appreciated
Cheers.

Cpu cooler for K9N6PGM2-V

Hi!
Can someone please recommend me a decent CPU cooler that fits K9N6PGM2-V board, will be used for Phenom II x3 720 CPU.
both memory slots are used.450W power supplier.
i am intending to over clock it as well.
Regards.

Quote from: Stu on 30-October-11, 18:44:30
What are you planning to do with it?
If you're not overclocking, then the standard cooler that comes with retail boxed CPU will be just fine.
i bought this CPU without retail box, so without cooler ,and i do want to overclock it in the future.

MSI K9N6PGM2 help!

hello all! i just bought a MSI K9N6PGM2 motherboard. im trying to find out where the power button wires go?
theres 2 hole "ide led" 2 hole PWR ground, 2 hole reset ground, 4 hole speaker ground and a 3 hole pled.
i think they go into JFP2 but not sure. can someone tell em exacly where they go? and what pins i put each into.
Many thanks!

What case have you got? And what wires has it got? That might be a factor.
This is a Value board. Those normally have not so good a manual. I'll try to find a manual you can use a little easier. But please note, that another manual is for another motherboard, so not all works. Mod: No, it is in the manual, p 7 in English part. Where the JFP1 is you find on p 1, South East corner.
If there is some connector from your case that does not fit on JFP1 you can instead use pins on JFP2, just West of JFP1.

MSI K9N6PGM2-v,,,,,,having problems getting 3.5 floppy to run, appreciate help.

I purchased an AMD computer that had the MSI K9N6PGM2-v motherboard. It has a CD/DVD combo drive. My wife wants to use this for her bookkeeping on a Rural Water District she keeps books. Her old computer had a 3.5 floppy drive she did backups of her Rural Water District program. In order to use her backups with this new computer, I need to transfer her old 3.5 floppy drive to the new computer. My college aged son was home over the weekend, and installed the 3.5 drive. I watched him do it, and seen where he just plugged it into the motherboard, and I believe plugged a power wire into the drive also. Anyway, I didnt check it out when he was done, and he is now back at school. I tried to use the floppy drive tonight, but nothing happened. The power light comes on the front, but the drive is not recognized. When I go into device manager, I see it has no A: floppy drive, the only drive that is listed is the Cd/DVD combo drive. There is no manual with this computer, as we bought it from a friend, who built it. Is there something my son "missed" when hooking this up, or does something int he BIOS need to be changed in order for the drive to be recognized? I am not very computer literate, when it comes to changing BIOS and things, but with instructions, I will try anything. My wife is angry that I do not have her computer working, and she needs to do the bookkeeping this weekend. I would appreciate any help you could supply.
thanks,

Is your floppy 2.88? Not likely! I'd bet if you set it for 1.44 it would work as that's what most floppies are. Since 1987.
Edit: From something I just looked up:
2.88 MB 3.5" Floppy
"The highest-capacity format for floppy disks is the 2.88 MB 3.5" disk that was developed by Toshiba in the late 80s. The 2.88 MB offers double the capacity of the 1.44 MB disk by using special media and a special recording method.
If you've never used or even heard of this drive format before, then you are exactly right. It is basically a dead format; I very rarely if ever see it used. The exact reason why is anybody's guess, but these three factors weigh heavily in my mind when I consider why it might be that nobody uses 2.88 MB floppies despite the fact that everyone hates the small size of the 1.44 MB floppy:"

Problems with MSI K9N6PGM2-V2 Motherboard in a barebone package

Hi:
I bought a MSI K9N6PGM2-V2 Motherboard and AMD Athlon X2 5200+ AD5200OCK22GM Processor with a DiabloTek CPA-0280 Elite ATX Mid Tower Case from TigerDirect. This is their so-called barebone package.
Unfortunately, I did not receive the CPU cooler so I bought a FAN from a computer store. Now, I cannot seem to make the system work.
I have several questions.
First, the JPWR2 power connector on the MSI is 4-pin. However, I cannot find a 4-pin power cable from the DiabloTek case. There is one cable that has 6-pin and it can fit into the JPWR2. Unfortunately, when I turn on the power, the Motherboard does not boot.
Second, I have an elder case, which does have a 4-pin power cable and the motherboard does boot. However, I do not see the BIOS in the screen.
I guess that I must have done many wrong things there.
Could someone who is familar with this motherboard pelase give me some suggestions?
Thank you very much,
Cheers,

Fan? You need a heatsink with a fan to cool the CPU down, just a fan won't do it.
As for the case + PSU: +12V: 30A that isn't a lot, but should show a BIOS if you didn't insert some fancy videocard.
And for the 6pin, that's a PCIe powerconnector!!!
According to TigerDirect: 1x 4+4 Pin Motherboard Connector +12V so you have the proper connector.
But you may have blown something to pieces by gambling on the connections.
Else? Nothing left to say but: >>Posting Guide<<

I'm pretty sure I have everything covered for at least minimum game requirements (not a techie by any stretch, just enough to be dangerous to myself) except for the ram, which I'll install depending on the answer I get from you good folks.
Is there a video card you would recommend to get me going? I'm not looking to break the bank, $150 is about my limit give or take. Or is my dream to play MWO just that, a dream with this mobo?
Thanks in advance.

>>Posting Guide<<
We need to know more about the equipment you already have in order to make any sort of recommendations.
You have a 16x pcie 1 sot and most of the cards out there are backwards compatible, but allot depends on your psu. (Some people have more trouble with ATI then Geforce for pcie1)

K9N6PGM2-V2 DISABLE ONBOARD VGA INSTALL 6600 PCI-e

Hi All
I have put together a basic multimedia computer for a friend using all new parts (listed below) All went well with the XP install and it seems to be running fine, Another pleasant build apart from the graphics>
I want to disable the onboard graphics and use a NEW MSI 6600 (non SLI) graphics card basically for the dual view and S-VIDEO output options, I have set the preference in the BIOS to PCI-E disabling the onboard VGA, I connected the monitor to the 6600 but no picture is displayed and found the onboard VGA is still working, Would I need to remove the onboard drivers to be able to use the 6600?
K9N6PGM2-V2 MOBO
SEMPRON 140 2.7GHz AM3 CPU
CORSAIR XMS2 512mb x2 RAM
A-POWER 680W PSU
Any help would be greatly appreciated

okay I hope this helps because i had a similar problem where my gtx 275 coop would not display unless the onboard vga was installed, but i have an msi nf980-g65 mobo, so i'm hoping this can help. so before doing anything switch your setting that should be called "Primary Graphics Adapter" to "Internal" if thats what it says in your bios, (you can have the graphics card in or out of the pc its fine) then go into windows if you have it installed, then go to device manager and delete the onboard vga from the display adapters. then download the latest drivers for your card (you don't need the card to be recognized or installed to download the drivers) but dont install the drivers yet, then download Driver Sweeper, reboot into safe mode then open driver sweeper, and check every box related to nvidia, then clean it. (also if windows reinstalled the drivers for the onboard vga, delete it again from the device manager and clean the drivers again with driver sweeper) then install the latest drivers for your graphics card, it should already be on your desktop or wherever you saved it to. then reboot and see if your graphics card picks up video, and then if it does go into windows and look in the device manager and if your onboard vga and your graphics card are shown in device manager, then don't do anything and reboot into the BIOS and set the primary graphics adapter back to PCI-E and i'm not sure where its located but look into the chipset feature option or wherever and it should show a setting called Onboard VGA or Integrated VGA and set it to disabled, then it should take off the onboard vga from the computer and your graphics card should still pick up a video signal. but the feature would only pop up for me if the graphic card was enabled so look hard for it. i hope this helps cause i had that same problem where it need the mGPU enabled for the 275 to be enabled
