  • MSI KT3 Ultra ARU BIOS FLASH

    currently trying to flash my bios upto the current release to attempt to fix a problem that seems i am not the only one to have and have tried every other solution provided.
    Now i have flashed many a bios before but never this one....my current version is 5.1 and i am trying to install 5.7.  Here's the problem.....when i load dos from a win98se startup disk i goto the c: drive and then run a "dir" to get the list......however instead i get a "file not found" for the whole drive (i am guessing do to it not being able to read a FAT32 partition/drive).   so i am able to copy the bios flash files to a ramdrive that the startup disk creates on boot but i am reluctant to install from there as i don't want to fuxor something up by doing so.   i would just install them from a floppy but the instructions that come with the flash file say specifically not to install from a floppy (though no reason for this is given).  
    My questions are these:
    1.  can i copy the files to the ramdrive and install the bios flash from there without having any problems that anybody knows of?
    2.  why can't i just install the flash from floppy?   i've never run into this on any other boards is this an MSI thing
    3.  is there a place that i can get a bootdisk online that will allow me to read the fat32 disk so that i don't have to worry about any of the above solutions that i have come up with?
    any help with this stuff will be greatly appreciated
    tia

    nevermind i figured it out   thanks anyway

  • KT3 ULTRA-2 BIOS 5.5 OR 5.6 ?HI

    Hi. I have a kt3 ultra-2 that had a 2000+ cpu.
    I upgraded the cpu to a 2600+ that runs at 333. So i set the fsb to 166. It works just fine. my question is.
    My bios is 5.5 and 5.6 says it supports the 2600+.
    Do i need the 5.6 bios? Is ther new settings in it for a 2600+. And does live update 2 really work right with ntfs and xp. thank you for the help )

    Hi,
    No, you can stay with 5.5 if you like....
    5.6 won't add settings, if 5.5 is running fine, leave it alone..
    Yes, LiveUpdate works with XP and NTFS.

  • KT3 Ultra 2 - Bios V5.7 - Problem

    Hello,
    I don't know if anyone else has tried updating the KT3 Ultra 2 to the new V5.7 BIOS ?  
    I tried and got load of error messages on the screen, Chipset isn't support etc ROM Size Unknown ....
    I have V5.6 on right now.
    I have tried Live Update, it doesn't show new bios and also tried another floppy with files on and also downloaded the file again.
    No win !

    I did not have that particular problem but I found others
    I was able to load new 5.7 bios but after I did it took board about 2 minutes to boot.  
    The part where the XP logo screen is supposed to come up took about 2 minutes.  There is no HD (light) activity and then all of a sudden you hear harddrive and XP logo screen comes up and it boots fine.
    The same situation arose with Bios 5.6 but I was able to fix that by changing MPS table from Default 1.4 to 1.1.  The XP screen would take about 2 minutes to boot so I tried changing settings in bios and finally came to the MPS entry and changed it to 1.1 and the board booted fine.  It took about 3-5 sec for the XP logo scrreen to pop up after the last bios screen that would show all the Devices, IRQ's ect...
    Changing the MPS to 1.1 in the 5.7 bios did not fix the long boot problem like it did in 5.6.
    I can live with the 5.6 bios but the CPU halt command in the 5.7 bios drops temps about 20 degrees F and that is great.  I hope this problem can be fixed in 5.7 so I can utilize the CPU Halt command.

  • KT3 Ultra + v5.7 BIOS -- weird behaviour

    I have KT3 Ultra with newly flashed 5.7 BIOS + XP2100, 512 333DDR, Club3D 9700np, WindowsXP.
    I had some start-up troubles after installing 9700np (8 beeps and no signal), which forced me to reset the system every time after power up to load windowsXP. So, I decided to flash the BIOS. Now, system boots up with no problems, but I've encountered a new problem.
    Pressing ctrl+alt+del doesn't bring up the TASK MANAGER. All I get is the CPU USAGE window. Thus, processes, applications etc., those are gone. This means, basically, that I can't shut down programs that are not responding (not that I need to do that very often, but still...). Right clicking on the task bar and selecting TM shows me the same CPU USAGE window.
    In addition, IE's pop-up windows that launch external programs (like some sites offering mp3 ring tones that I play with Winamp) cause IE to crash. Never happened before.
    All this happened right after I flashed the BIOS. Any ideas?!?! Should I go back to 5.5 that I had before?
    Thanks,
    Thomas

    This is pobubly off topic, but since the title is KT3 Ultra and Bios 5.7 I decided to ask here so as not to create a duplicate thread.
    I to flashed my Bios to 5.7, but my problem is as follows.
    After flash rebooted my computer as instructed, entered bios and verified all my configurations.  Rebooted again.  Windows came up fine but all text was garbled and unreadable.  Reflashed 5.7 (thinking it didn't take).  Again same problems.  Had to flash back to 5.6 inorder to straighten out.  
    Bas any ideas?
    Thomstucks:: Sorry to hear about your problem, and for jumping in on your thread.  Have you tried 5.6?

  • MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU

    Can anyway say to me the PCI/AGP dividers of MSI Kt3 ULTRA -ARU?
    Thanx in advance

    The agp 1x, 2x, 4x, and on other new mobos 8x, have nothing to do with the speed at which it operates. It has something to do with the transfer and how much more bandwidth there is between the agp card and the system bus.
    The 1/4 dividers has:
    PCI = 1/4*133 = 33mhz
    AGP = 2/4*133 = 66mhz
    The 1/5 dividers has:
    PCI = 1/5*166 = 33mhz
    AGP = 2/5*166 = 66mhz
    The futuristic 1/6 dividers will have:
    PCI = 1/6*200 = 33mhz
    AGP = 2/6*200 = 66mhz
    Your equation "...and the AGP card of 4X = 4(FSB/5)" would yield a result of 4(133/5) =  106mhz for the agp so it is way out of spec.
    Hey man, I've unlockes my athlon xp 1900+, changed multiplier to 10x, fsb to 166 and sisoft sandra 2002 sp1 said that the pci was running at 42 mhz and the agp at 84. MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU, bios 5.5
    Also, I can't run with 12.5/13x, it uses 12 instead.
    Can you help me?

  • KT3 Ultra-2, Blank Screen then Freeze?!

    Ok, this happend to me last night, and am clueless
    I was playing CS for 1 hr, then suddenly screen went black, no sound, no response. To me my PC frooze, then i hit the reset button.  But then i got a CMOS Invalid Config Error, all the info was cleared?  
    So i re-entered the BIOS SEtup values again, then while checking some info on a webpage, BANG, it happened again, Blank screen, etc etc etc...What is wrong?
    I have DEER 350 Watts psu, 256 Kingston DDR266 CAS2 Module, XP1600+ (not oced) and normal BIOS Defaults (after what happened) and an ATI Radeon 8500LE, and KT3 Ultra-2 Bios v5.6, Windows XP SP1
    Thanks in advance  ;(

    Hi,
    First check your CPU-cooler, if it's mounted wrong the board will shutdown to prevent damage to the CPU....
    Check if the JBAT jumper is set to position 1-2 to safe the data....
    Please read the trouble shooting guide entirely....it might just solve your problem...

  • MSI KT3 Ultra ARU 5.7 BIOS and SoudBlaster Cards - Audigy

    I have flashed my BIOS to 5.7 Version and my sound card start to make a lot of noise (crackling) when play AC3 or DVD. If you dont want to use the new AMD CPU 333 FSB you dont need to flash the BIOS - I have Flashed to 5.6 again but, if you want to use a 333 FSB CPU you can flash the BIOS to version 5.7 and if have sound problems use the PCI latency patch for VIA chipsets.
    VIA chipset MotherBoard owners who have through all of the above and still have sound problems with their Soundblaster cards, might want to look into the PCI latency patch for VIA chipsets - get it here:

    (scroll down the page there just a little to get to it).
    There's also a similar page about resolving sound problems on Via chipset based computers here:

    My System:
    MSI KT3 Ultra ARU
    Athlon 2400+
    512 Kingston PC2700 DDR SDRAM
    MSI Geforce4 Ti 4200
    SoundBlaster Audigy
    Windows xp Pro SP1
    400W PSU
    Creative Drx3
    Pinnacle PCTV pro
    HDD Maxtor 80 GB UDMA 133
    DVD Pioneer slot in
    RW Samsung 48x16x48
    Creative WebCam Go
    UPS 500 VA
    Monitor Sony 19" E400E

    Since my chip is an unlocked, I cannot easily run it at the default, but I can underclock it. At 100x6.0=600mhz, USB does not work, as well as 100x12.5. Same with 133x6.0 and 133x12.5. It appears to make no difference underclocking or overclocking.
    I downloaded the right BIOS listed on MSI's KT3 Ultra-ARU page. I don't think the BIOSes are different anyway, since the same files, changelog, and etc are also listed for the Ultra-2 board.
    A thing to note, that this is the onboard VIA-controller USB ports doing this. My Ultra-ARU's NEC-controller USB 2.0 ports work fine in both Win2k and Linux if I hook my mouse and keyboard up in those. This is not an ideal solution for me though.

  • KT3-Ultra 5.7 BIOS.....

    Hi,
    The KT3-Ultra (-ARU) 5.7 BIOS will be released official this week...
    Don't expect much changes over the last BIOS as there are very little.
    As these are the only improvements:
    Fixed AMD 2600+(266MHz FSB) CPU shown incorrectly
    Fixed ATi8500 AGP card cannot be used

    As I heard from several people that the TBred-333 CPU's do work, even when they are not supported....
    We have to wait until somebody tries it :D
    Hi,
    I know, it's only a bios trouble, infact on the MoBo page (at CPU support section) are tested processors till +2800/333mhz without problems, and my T-Bred goes easy at 166mhz. Barton have only 256k plus L2 than T-Bred...but why MSI dosen't make a bios with the official support to 333mhz? The KT3Ultra2 was reported officially (in old news from MSI) with 333mhz support. I'm very disappointed about this...  :(

  • K7N2 Delta bios versions 5.4 & 7.4 released

    MSI has now released bios version 5.4 for the K7N2 Delta-L and 7.4 for the K7N2 Delta-ILSR and can be downloaded here:- Link
    This bios fixes the following problems of the previous version:-
    -Fixed Nvidia FX5900 Ultra compatability issue.

    I was using my K7N2 Delta nicely but after flashing the BIOS from 5.0 to 5.3 in LiveUpdate3 (all OK) and then when LiveUpdate ask to reboot... GOOD BYE!
    When bootin the D-lights show that I have a processor damaged or not intalled properly (two red light up, and two green down...).
    My processor is an Old Tbird 1.2 Ghz with 100FSB.
    The question is: Why the mother stops recognicing the processor if before flashing BIOS worked nicely?.
    J10 and J11 jumpers:
    When I opened case to check out, I had the green J10 and J11 jumpers closed in the mother. The J10 was in safe mode, and the J11 jumper was closed...(133FSB-166FSB??).
    I only have another athlon 1.1 ghz FSB100 processor to test the mobo, but I don´t want to take the risk of burn that one two (if is that the problem, of course).
    So... I want to know how can I reflash the bios back (I have the old BIOS in a backup floppy disk, of course)... or if anyone else have the same problem as me....
    Thanx a lot guys, and please help me... I´m very sad by now... because I don´t know how to get my computer to work.
    Jose.
