KM2M Combo L MS-6738 Problem with Duron 850 Morgan

Hello!
I have just re-lived an old KM2M I Warp L (6738) with a processor Duron 850 Morgan.
However, when boot the system, the screen shows Mobile AMD Duron 500.
The motherboard has the last BIOS in the web site of MSI (W6738VMS.140) but I don't find an option to change the multiplier or to leave it in AUTO (the jumper of FSB is in 100Mhz).
I cannot believe that this motherboard doesn't recognize a Duron Morgan 850 correctly !
Does some solution exist? ...
Greetings and thank you ahead of time!

also from main page for KM2M:
Ok, thank you ... I have seen that information.
The strange thing is that there it figures that the motherboard supports Duron Morgan from 1.1 Ghz (anything says about the Duron Spitfire) and, however, today I have placed a Duron Spitfire 750 Mhz and this if it is recognized as such!
I believe that this reveals that a deficiency exists in the regressive compatibility of CPU's of this mobo!...
Greetings!

KM2M Combo -L MS 6738 MB with VIA NIC

When I try to install Norton Internet Security or any other Firewall the TCPIP install on my WIN 98 SE goes away. The NIC is not enabled after the install. I try to reinstall the NIC and it does not work (will not install.) Teh adapter is a VIA Rhine II Fast Ethernet Adapter and the live update says i have all of the correct drivers.
Has anybody else ran into this problem?
I with a shareware fire wall and had the same problem so I went with the Norton Personal FW and now I find I have the same problem so I thend to thisnk it is a problem with the board and the NIC.
The MB is a KM2M Combo-L http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=411

KM2M mobo problem with Duron 1.1

To all who have had problems with a KM2M motherboard. Factory setting for the mobo is with the jumper at 133 FSB. The mobo doesn't seem to have autodetection of FSB since when I installed the Duron 1.1 Ghz it booted up with the Duron at 1.5 Ghz. Needless to say the mobo did POST once and the second time crashed miserably.
If the CPU isn't burned up in the first instance and you're lucky just take out the jumper and switch it to the 100 FSB setting. The jumper is in between the AGP and first PCI slot. Once that's done the mobo should POST just nicely and the Duron will live happily ever after ;-).
Can't complain much, but MSI guys you should have put a note for complete newbies that you if have a Duron processor it might be good to switch the jumper to 100 FSB cause the board doesn't do it on its own. If there's a BIOS update later on that auto detects the FSB the better for us.
The KM2M is a very good mobo and I'm very excited that I've managed to build a PC under 200 pounds and a word of warning to potential buyers of this board. Make sure when you buy to check if the board has AGP or not! Ask the supplier which version it is! You don't want to miss out on having an AGP slot even if the price might be lower by 10%.

Wouldn't you agree though that the manual should mention this in BOLD letters that if you are installing a Duron you should always make sure that you have the proper FSB setting? I mean I'm a newbie at building systems but I always RTFM :D

Lower the RAM's Memory Timing to something Less Aggressive...? MSI KM2M Combo-L

(Not sure where would be the best place to post, so this question is posted here and in the BIOS Thread... If possible, could the Moderators please leave BOTH as to assure a response... I'd appreciate it... Thank You..!!!)
MSI KM2M Combo-L (601-6738-010)
I’m running into some application errors, and the main suggestion is to lower the RAM’s Memory Timing to something Less Aggressive...
The problem with that is I don’t see any option in the MSI KM2M Combo-L Phoenix 6g BIOS...
Basically, I’m trying to “Underclock”... NOT “Overclock”...
Any ideas...??
(I tried “searching” the forums, but I’m not finding anything, other than people asking “Why would you want to do that...??” Those types of responses aren’t very useful...)

Hi
The KM2M Combo L bios under Dram Clock/Drive Control allows some adjustment of the memory timings. I suggest that you run it with the Dram Clock set by Spd (default). If you still have errors, run memtest for a couple of hours to check your memory.

KM2M Combo-L - Hardware Fault DDR Upgrade

Am having problems upgrading RAM on the KM2m Combo-L (MS-6738)
All working perfectly with 1 x 512Mb DDR RAM in DDR Slot 1 (Bank 0 & 1) - soon as I upgrade with second 512Mb/256Mb stick in Slot 2 (Bank 2 & 3), system becomes unstable and crashes unexpectedly in WinXP. All RAM checked in other machines/Slot 1 - OK - Memtest reports no probs. All BIOS Settings normal - all 4 DDR banks are seen OK. Have 3 of these boards - all the same problem. Is this a known hardware fault on second DDR slot?
Specs:
KM2m Combo-L - latest BIOS v1.4
Athlon XP2000+
2 x 512Mb Kingston DDR RAM
1 x Pioneer DVR-R A03 DVD Recorder
1 x Pioneer DVD x16 DVD-ROM
2 x Seagate 120Gb ATA-133 7,200RPM 8MB IDE Drives
Premier PSU 350W MAX:
3.3V 24A
5V 30A
12V 16A
3.3V + 5V = 200W MAX
WinXP SP1 + Updates
Thanks in advance for any help!

Yeah, matching PC266 CL2.5 Kingston - all OK in Slot 1, only prob when I try to use Slot 2

Problem with opening doc. files in pages '09

Hello, can anybody help me, ever since i installed " snow leopard" v10.6.2, pages '09 doesn't open doc. files ( word ) anymore.
Even documents produced in pages en ""saved as" a word document can't be opened again.
Keep receiving pop up whit message " can not be opened"

You need to manually install the 10.6.2 "Combo" version, there were problems with just using the regular update.

Problems with 10.6.4 update

I was running 10.6.4 for a while but recently experienced numerous kernel panics and applications quitting unexpectedly. Then the computer failed to start up so I reinstalled 10.6 from my disk and then installed the 10.6.4 combo update. Same problems with applications quitting. I then reinstalled 10.6 from the disk but did not install the 10.6.4 update. I am now running 10.6 and Safari 4.0.3 with no problems so far. This tells me something is wrong with 10.6.4 so I am hesitant to upgrade. Interested in hearing if anyone has had similar experiences especially with Intel based Macs.

I notice that many users are reporting sudden shut down of their machines after installing 10.6.4, especially while using Apple applications such as iTunes.
I do not have that problem but I DO have repeated examples of a shut down command being interrupted by a window telling me that there has been a problem during shut down and that I should restart the computer (by pressing the on/off key) and shut down again. Usually the machine will shut down at the second attempt. This error does not occur if I choose an immediate shutdown rather than a timed shut down. On the last two occasions, I have used the automatic reporting system within my machine to send Apple the system code generated during the fault. I have had no previous problems with my machine, purchased in early 2008. It has run faultlessly and ran all previous issues of 10.6 without error. The shut down error window only began appearing after installation of 10.6.4 a couple of weeks ago. I have loaded no new software onto the machine in the last year except for upgrades to Apple software available from via Apple Software Update.

MS-6738 (KM2M Combo-L) RAM Upgrade Question

Hi
I have the MS-6738 (KM2M Combo-L) Motherboard. At the moment it is running 512mb of RAM and I would like to upgrade to 1gig.
I do not know the make of the RAM in place at the moment because it was there when I bought the PC, but Aida tells me this:
FSB - Real Clock 133mhz
- Effective Clock 267mhz
Same goes for the RAM, 133 and 267.
I have read into the gambles involved in mixing RAM makes, etc, but I am prepared to take this gamble (first and maybe only time!) but according to http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/listparts.asp?Mfr%2BProductline=MSI+%28Micro+Star%29%2B+Motherboards&mfr=MSI+%28Micro+Star%29&cat=&model=MS-6738+%28KM2M+Combo-L%29&submit=Go the board is compatible with DDR PC2100 and DDR PC2700, yet it reccomends (actually GUARANTEES) that the Ballistix DDR PC400 will work. Is this correct?
What do you consider the best option to be for an upgrade. I can either get another 512 of the same speed (DDR PC2100??), or if it will effectively run DDR PC3200/400 then I will go for 1gig of that instead (Athalon XP 2000+). Please let me know what you think.
Thanks in advance for any useful posts!

Thanks for your replies so far.
I have read that this board suffers from problems when running more than one stick of RAM, as such I am tempted to just take out the old 512 stick and replace it with a single 1gig stick.
The bigger question I have is whether going for a higher speed of RAM (like available and guaranteed to work on Crucial), say DDR PC3200 would have any significant effect on system performance (World of Warcraft is a major RAM hog).
The RAM prices are as follows:
1GB — CT12864Z335 DDR PC2700 CL=2.5 NON-ECC UNBUFFERED £117.99 ex. VAT (ea.) £138.64 inc. VAT* (ea.)
1GB — CT12864Z265 DDR PC2100 NON-ECC UNBUFFERED £125.99 ex. VAT (ea.) £148.04 inc. VAT* (ea.)
1GB — CT12864Z40B DDR PC3200 CL=3 NON-ECC UNBUFFERED £133.99 ex. VAT (ea.) £157.44 inc. VAT* (ea.)
As you can see the PC2700 is cheapest, but the original mobo spec states DDR PC2100 as the highest (although the official site just says 184 pin no max speed was quoted).
Therein lies my question, would there be any point in spending the extra £20 on PC3200 when the system FSB is only 133mhz?

Problem with combo in js IE - new Option(t,v) not working

hello! Did somene had experience some problems with
adding new options in select object (combo box) in javascript? I can change text or value property, delete option by setting it to null, but when I want to add new, there is a problem!?
why this code doesn't work?
<script>
ref = window.document.frmExample["cbo1"];
alert(ref.length);
ref.options[ref.length] = new Option("text'","value1");
alert(ref.length);
</script>
interesting thing is that this works in Netscape (6), but it is not working in IE(5.5), and this is my first and last example where Netscape is 'better'...
Can someone help, please?
regards...
Vlada

you are right, it works in the 'mother' page, but if I want to add some options from popup window (window.open...), and when I accessing combo throught opener propery, than I have problem, because it is not working!?
code sample...
... 'mother' page function ...
function fAdd(){
var popupW;
popupW = window.open("page.html","name",attr);
if (!popupW.opener)
popupW.opener = window;
... popup window function...
function fClick(){
var opt;
var ref = window.opener.document.frmExample1["cbo1"];
alert(ref.length);
opt = "new";
ref.options[ref.length] = new Option(opt,opt);
window.close();
I get alert with the number ofoptions in combo, so ref is OK. I can delete some of them, change, but not to add new! Then I get Error message.
any sugestion!? Strange, but it works in Netscape ...

Problem with most recent apple combo software update

So about a month ago I posted here about a problem I'd been having for a while that others seemed to have as well, with safari crashing and for me dashboard as well. Looking at my crash report, I was advised that most likely this was a javascript error and I did an archive install of Leopard and this did fix the problem.
However, of course the Leopard from my install disk was a little old, so today when I did all the updates again, lo and behold, my problem is back. Looking at the date that the last combo update pack came out (mid June) I'm pretty sure this is when my problem started, and now its back again because I know that's one of the updates that I just did on my computer.
So my question is, has anyone else experienced problems with this recent update, and secondly, what can I do? Should I re- archive/install and not do the update, and then just wait until the next combo update? I did the updates in order to get my itunes back in order, but I don't know if it would be detrimental to my other programs to not do this last combo update... And is there anyway I can go into my system and fix this while keeping up the update? Its just strange to me that no one else I know is having this problem, even though they keep up-to-date on all the software updates.
Any help appreciated!

I get the error when I try…downloading it from the Support pages
That's very strange. Can you download anything from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/ ?
Launch Keychain Access, select Keychain First Aid from its left-hand menu, enter your password, select verify, and click on start. If that shows any problems, then select repair. If not, select X509Anchors, click on the top item, and then click the down arrow key until you find a bad/invalid certificate.

BIOS Problem with 915P Combo

Hi there...
I have one MB 915P Combo and i have problems in BIOS configuration.
I go to: Advanced BIOS Features / BOOT SEQUENCE
And have one option Boot from other Device, it have No.
I change to Yes, and reboot and now it is possible to use pen disks.
The problem:
If i install a program and at the end of installation (for example update IDE/Raid utility) it is necessary to reboot windows , i restart the windows and when go to windows, now is not possible to use pen disks...
To solve the problem temporaly:
It is necessary to go to the BIOS configuration and Change the Boot from other device to "No" and reboot... and Change again to "Yes" to work with Pen disk.
And sometimes appears a blue window in Windows with a Device Driver error.
How to solve the problem ?
I have the latest BIOS 1.6
Thanks.

What if you just normally reboot windows without any new installation? Does it happen the same way?

Problem with Pivot Table with Graph: Line Bar Combo

Hello people!
I have a problem with pivot table and line bar combo (all in the same view (pivot table))
I have some measures and one dimension in my report.
--------------measure1---measure2---measure3
Dim A.1
Dim A.2
Dim A.3
If I choose my graph line bar combo automatically choose "line" measure 3 (last measure in "Show Controls"). How can I do if I want my measure1 for line and I don't want modify my pivot table?
Thank you very much!

Ok, I'll explain my problem again. In my pivot table I add graph vision and I want in the same view (Pivot table). My graph is "Line Bar Combo" and I don't know how but the last of my measures belongs to right AXIS, if I change order of my measures I can see in my graph the measure that I want in my right axis BUT also it changes the order of my pivot table.
This is my problem. I think that I can do that with different views but I lose my selector view to view graphic and my pivot table at the same time.
