Kt3 ultra/ gf3 ti200 random reset with 3d games

Im having random resets with a kt3 ultra and a MSI GF3 ti200, with 3d games; namely Mafia and Bf1942. Ive tried new drivers for the video card, checked the cpu temp, and bios settings. Any ideas on how to fix it or is their a compatibility problem with the mobo and the video card?

I found my 6380 v2.0 mobo liked 1 brand of ram more than other.I only run crucial,kingston or muskin(micron chips)ram.Put all bios settings to defaults & try only 1 stick(1 brand) of ram at a time.I also found my gf3 ti 200 & 500 liked certain versions of drivers over others.It would crash on some.Try original cd install drivers that came w/  vid :D  card.Try running 3d mark 2k1 bencmarks to test all drivers & ram.

  • CMOS won't reset KT3 Ultra

    The CMOS on my KT3 Ultra board will not reset. I've tried taking the battery out for over 48 hours and setting the JBAT1 to the 2-3 position. My CMOS settings will not reset.
    I'm trying to reset them is because I can not get into the BIOS. When I hit delete, my screen says "Go->Setup" but it never goes into the BIOS. It continues to the MBFastTrak133 screen.
    Please help me. Thanks in advance.

    hi,
    What keyboard are you using? I assume you never go into the BIOS, use a PS/2 keyboard instead, not USB keyboard first. YOu can use USB keyboard later after you managed to enter BIOS and to enable USB.
    You can keep on hitting DEL key even at the MBFastTrak133 screen. It will still go into the BIOS after that RAID BIOS screen. Just wait for it to go off.

  • KT3 Ultra only boots after cmos reset

    I have a brand new (bought last week) KT3 Ultra v1.0 (MS-6380E) with no RAID and no BlueTooth.  I've updated the BIOS to v5.7.
    CPU: AMD XP 2200+ (clocked as same)
    RAM: Kingston 256MB PC2700 (one stick, tried all slots, tried different stick, also tried 2 sticks at once)
    PSU: ANTEC 350W +3.3=20A +5=33A (both = 180A) +12=15A -12=1A -5=1A +5SB=2A (also tried L&C 400W +3.3=28A +5=40A (both = 220W max, amps not labled) +12=17A -12=.8A -5=.3A +5SB=2A)
    Cooler: CoolerMaster CP5-6J31C-01 (rated to 3000+ or more)
    CPU temp: ATI mach64 PCI (also tried 2 other cards, both PCI and AGP)
    D-Link PCI NIC
    WD 6.4GB HDD (tried disconnecting)
    ancient 4x CDRom (as 2nd master) (also tried disconnecting)
    1.44 MB floppy (tried disconnecting)
    No hardware changes had any effect.
    Before updating bios, the system would boot only about 1/10th of the time.  When it didn't boot, usually the screen would stay blank and a beep code of "longer pause, long beep, longer pause, long beep, etc." would occur.  Cold booting seemed to increase likelihood of booting.  Removing and reseating ram may also have increased likelihood.  Putting ram in 2nd slot seemed to help.
    After updating bios to v5.7, the system would never boot at all except EVERY TIME after a cmos clear.  After the clear, the machine would boot and report "invalid CMOS settings" and if I pressed F2, it would accept defaults and boot OS.  If I opened setup and rebooted, it would again fail to boot until another cmos jumper clear.
    Lemme know what you guys think.  Thanks in advance.

    First, thanks for the input.
    Second, please note that the cpu cooler is rated for a much faster Athlon XP than I'm using.
    Third, do you recommend a specific brand of RAM for best chances of success?  
    Fourth, do you recommend a specific brand of PSU (if you think mine is underpowered).
    Thanks in advance.

  • Fan monitoring with KT3-Ultra 2 (ignore prev post)

    Ok ppl, here's the deal,
    just contacted MSI and apparently the KT3-Ultra and the K7T-266 Pro2A use the same PCB (different northbridge thoguh... not sure about soutbridge) and they do not support fan speed modification...
    i'm still waiting on an answer for the KT3-Ultra 2-R
    can anyone with this board verify if fan speed changin in windows works?

    No, my Ti4400 is not the Champ ed. The actual model number on it is 8871 ver-1.00. You can read about my problem's in the "Have you seen this?....." thread on this forum (page 7 now I think)
     I haven't had a problem in the last couple days though. I removed some Reg tweaks (this is a DAW box) and ....dont luagh, turned up the heat in my house. I'm not sure if it was the Reg edit or Temp, but things are working ATM.
    Nice to know I'm not alone though,

  • KT3 Ultra(MS-6380E) Windows XP Compatibility...?

    I had recently bought some new parts for my computer and everything seems to be compatible with each other even the store i bought the parts from told me everything is compatible.  I checked the compatibility of the new parts ive bought and they are all "compatible" so i dont believe what i am about to say is a hardware/hardware related issue but something else.  Im currently running windows 98se and eveerything is running fine.  My mother board is KT3 Ultra(MS-6380E) and my CPU is an AMD Athlon XP 1800+.  When I installed windows XP everything would work well for a while but when I would go to start shuntdown in XP the computer would more often restart itself than shut itself down.  and sometimes when i booted it up again it would have some blue screen with a STOP error. I dont currently have what the stop ERRORS were butthey prevented me from getting back into windows XP at all.  and sometimes the computer would say my mouse or keyboard is unplugged or  not responding sod have to unplug them restart replug them in and hope for the best.  Im wondering now what the heck is goin on here everything is compatible in windows98se and all my older(not so old) parts work in windows XP.  Is there some special drivers I need to get to make the KT3 Ultra(MS-6380E) work properly with Windows XP I dont recall I installed any new drivers for it but should that really matter WinXP detects the latest drivers doesnt it?  So anyway what is going on here I just want my computer that technically should work with Win XP to work with Win XP like it should.  Please answer my loooooong  post it would mean alot to me if I could get this issue figured out. any mroe hardware questions etc.. I can answer just email me at [email protected] or post behind this message.  thank you for taking the time to read this.

    Heres all my hardware:

  • MSI KT3 Ultra ARU & GeForce 3 TI200

    A little prob:
    When I run my GF3 in AGP mode, all my games hang after playing 1 min. Then when I change the "Via Tech CPU to AGP-controller" to "PCI standard PCI to PCI brigde" thereby running my GF3 in PCI-mode everything runs fine. Then I went into "dxdiag" and saw that "Acceleration of AGP-struktur" was not availble. So I was thinking, am I looseing enything by running the GF3 in PCI-mode and is it the MSI or the GF3 that is causeing this problem.
    I have tried all the VIA 4in1 drivers and they did not help.
    My specs:
    MSI KT3 Ultra ARU
    Athlon XP 1900+
    Palite Daytona Geforce 3 TI200
    Windows XP pro

    i have the kt3 ultra with a geforce 3 ti200 and it runs flawless.. i use the det 30.30 drivers. one thing i noticed with geforce 3 cards is if i have my agp apperature set to anything but 128 games will freeze and get all kinds off lock ups. if i were you i would look around this forum for the bios setup guide for the kt3 ultra! and set your bios according to that guide
    if you cant find it here goto http://www.amdmb.com and go to the msi forum there and the set up guide is there
    hopefully that helps!!!!

  • Problems with VIA KX133 + GF3 Ti200

    My system crashes after installing via 4in1 drivers (i've tried 4.28, 4.35, 4.43) runing 2D or 3D applications.
    When starting any 3dmark2001 test it crashes. Without via 4in1 i can run 3dmark2001 without problems but the results are extremely low.
    OS Win98
    MB Biostar M7MKB (via KX133 chipset)
    CPU Athlon 650 MHz (slot A)
    MS-8851 GF3 Ti200 64Mb DDR
    RAM 2x128 Mb Kingston PC133
    ATX 300W
    I mention that i didn't encountered anyproblems before installing the videocard, on my older RivaTNT2.
    Any sugestions?
    ++++++(i've also posted this inother forums so...)
    No irq conflict before or after installing 4in1. And the same happens under windows XP. I also tried 4in1 4.20 wich came with my mainboard. I also tried detonator 21.83 , 23.11 and 29.42 under Windows 98. No iam really out of ideeas. In bios the only options regarding AGP card are AGP memory (set to 64) and video bios shadow, so there's nothingto do there either. What can i try next?
    +++++++
    I've installed clean win98, then detonator 29.42 then modem and directx 8.1 (also tried 81.b). Then i made a backup of this state on another disk, wich i am reverting to after each unsuccesful try. So there is no driver mix-up. And no, there is no conflict before or after 4in1 installation. Also the system hangs apparently randomly in 2d apps. (but everytime i start MSOutlook ??!) and always in 3Dmark2001 at the begining. So, it functions ok but slow without 4in1, and crashes afterwards with 5 different versions of it.... My guess is ther might be a problem with the mainboard AGP voltage in4x or something (the 3D card runs ok on kt133 chipset with via 4in1 4.43)

    Thanx,
    I'm trying that now but the only option in bios is AGP 4x Mode (on/off). Is there any program able to switch between modes while running ?

  • RAM problems with KT3 Ultra 2 causing STOP errors in XP

    I've run the NEC ncramtst program on my PC and its coming up with an error in the extended memory at adddress 1B8EE01C which probably explains the stop errors and problems I've been having in XP...
    I've tried reseating the RAM and tried a different slot but it still returns the same error.
    The PC is only 2 months old and I have only experienced stop errors in the last 2 weeks or so and usually are at random - and occur more often when copying files - or putting load on the PC.. any ideas why the RAM is only now causing errors and what the problem is?
    Are the problems definatly being caused by RAM or could it be the motherboard?
    Thanks in advance

  • Problem with Kt3 ultra

    Ok here is my problem.  I reformatted my computer and accidentally f-ed with my bios settings.  After clearing the cmos and flashing the bios, i reformatted again and reinstalled windows xp.  I was able to update everything (SP1, audio drivers) except the video driver.  I can install the video driver, but when i reset to finish the installation, the system goes to the windows load screen and then the monitor just goes blank.  When i go into safe mode, there is a message that my video card had problem drawing something.  I have tried every possible driver there is, and its is the same result. Anyone got suggestions?  I have AMD 1700, kt3 ultra, mx440 nvidia.  Thanks

    OK i tried it in safe mode, which didnt work. Maybe i'm doing this wrong. Here is my procedure. The last working config was right before the video card is detected.  I let windows detect the card and install the driver. Then i go into add remove programs and remove the nvidia drivers, which removes the video card from the device list. I then install the 4 in 1 drivers. Restart. Then install the video driver. The restart again, which always leads me to dark screen after windows load. By the way, tahnks for your help.

  • WIN2k, KT3 Ultra Deluxe Board, and Random Reboots

    OK.
    First off, let me say, the KT3 Ultra board (Deluxe) is a very, VERY nice board, and I love it with all my heart. I'm running Windows 2000 and I get great performance on games, and just all around everything.
    But, for some reason, I keep getting random reboots, and I have a hunch it has to do with the 'board.
    Here are my specs:
    AMD Athlon XP 1600+
    PNY GeForce 4 TI 4600
    MSI KT3 Ultra Board (Deluxe)
    512 megs of DDR RAM
    Windows 2000 Professional, Service Pack 2 (all updates)
    Maxtor 60 GB HD
    Western Digital 60 GB HD
    HP CD-ROM Drive
    Genuine DVD-ROM Drive
    NetGear FA310TX NIC card
    SoundBlaster Live!
    Any ideas, folks?

    There can be a lot of reasons why you get reboots, so difficult to point to one thing that will solve it.  Your PSU is big, so we can rule out lack of power.
    I presume you have fiddled with the BIOS settings?  What are your advanced chipset settings?  In my experience lockups and reboots are caused by memory problems, so set memory to "by user" and on the slowest setings at first.
    My GF4 gave reboots because the AGP slot shared IRQ11 with my networkcard.  Relocating the networkcard to another PCI slot solved it.  MY GF2 card didn't show this problem.  So check if you have shared resources.
    Take out all other cards and see if it improves the situation.
    Do you have one or two memory sticks.  In case of 2, try everything with one stick and also with the other to see if one of the sticks is the problem.

  • KT3 Ultra-ARU not work with ATI 9600pro?

    Hi,
    I have recently(yesterday) bought an ATI 9600pro, to upgrade my old GF2pro. As the title says, I have the KT3 Ultra-ARU(MS-6380E)
    There seems to be lockup problems that involve only certian games and the ATI DVD player. In all instances the lock ups happen when the mouse is moved. With respect to the ATI DVD player, it will lock if the mouse is moved over the video window.
    I have tried a few things but nothing works, so I am posting here to try and see if someone knows something and I will contact ATI in a few hours, or maybe tomorrow.

    For via chipset (kt333 based msi kt3 ultra-aru) i can now obtain full hardware acceleration and 100% stable for c&c generals game by:
    1) download and install latest catalyst 3.7 driver/control panel/samartgart from ati.
    2) disable fast-write in bios..
    3) go to c:programsati technologyati control panel and execute smartgart
    4) enable - pci read/write and agp read.
    5) disable - agp write (default in my case was on causing the problem).
    6) "apply", reboot, then "ok".

  • Anyone using BlueTooth with MSI KT3 Ultra-Aru?

    Has anyone setup BlueTooth PC to PC network with the MSI KT3 Ultra-Aru?
    Where can one get the transmitter?  (assuming it works)

    Hi,
    I have a KT3 Ultra ARU too, and I understand that if you use the onboard Bluetooth connection you must not use the USB connection under the blue sticker at the same time.
    I think it's because the onboard Bluetooth connection and the USB connection under the sticker use the same adress (IRQ). So as long as you have no Bluetooth, like me, you can use the 4 USB connections. If you use Bluetooth connection on board, do not use the USB connection under the sticker (the left one seen from backside of your PC).
    If you use an external Bluetooth it's not a problem with your 4 USB connections.

  • MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU with GeForce 4 Ti 4200

    Umm...
    My PC keep freezing when I play a 3D Game like Warcraft III, GTA 3 or Neverwinter Nigths.
    Sometimes it's freezing after 2 mins, sometimes I can play like a half hour.
    When it's freezed, Windows don't work either so the whole comp is messed up then .. and I have to reboot him.
    I post this here cuz I heard that those new GeForce Cards have some compatibilty probs with mainboards ...
    maybe ... someone asked this already ... or just knows a soulution ...
