KT4-Ultra FSIR Gigabit ethernet problem

Hello,
just wondering if anyone has had a problem with getting the onboard gigabit ethernet to work? I've had some problems, but I connect to a functioning 10/100 network, so that may be the problem.
thanks,
bill

Hi Gert.
Thanks for the reply. No I don't know what GIGABIT is!?
I thouth 'Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5702 Gigabit Ethernet' was the name of the network card sitting on the motherboard!?
It looks like I'm accessing internet via that network card from Linux (which I am using right now)...
So do you know what I need to do to get the integrated network card work in windows 98. It should've been 'plug n play' but it don't seems to work. This is what I've tried so far (well, at least something like this): 'Control Panel -> Network -> Adapters -> Add -> Broadcom -> Broadcom Gigabit Network... something...'.
Is this aproach totaly wrong...

KT4 Ultra FISR AGP Speed Problem

Hi all,
I've got a bit of a problem and was wondering if someone can help?
I have bought the KT4 Ultra FISR and am having a problem when trying to use it with my 8x AGP Nvidia ge Force 4 ti 4200 but the bois wont let me change the AGP speed to 8x, it insists that the highest it can go is 4x. ;(
I have run the newest 3DMark03 and it's showing that my AGP is only 2.0 and not the 3.0 that is meant to be with the board?
I was wondering if this is the problem?
I have double checked with the Graphics Card Manufacturer and they have confirmed that my card is an 8x card and I know that it was running at 8x on my last board.
I have done all of the Auto updates on the MSI motherbaord update utility but there's still no joy.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi there
Well I have the Inno36 Ti 4200 8x AGP card:
http://www.ivmm.com/inno3d/geforce4/products_gf4_ti_agp8x_reviews.html
I know it's not the best card on the market but it should still be able to operate at it's advertised speed :P
A couple of the guys here at EA bought the card and theres are working fine on thier boards :(
I am not totally sure of the version number of my bios but does 1.3 ring a bell?
I wont be able to check the version till monday...
Like I said before.. I did notice that 3dmark03 noted that I was using agp 2.0, is that right?
- Ricky
P.s. Thankyou for taking the time to help me out Its much appreciated.

KT4 Ultra APCI power management problems

After I boot I must go into Win98 power management propertys and apply to get any power management functions to work. And then all I can get is monitor blank and hardrive power down. Unit will not go into suspend.
If I use the suspend feature in power down the unit will go into suspend (Susp to ram) but all the fans keep running. When I come out of suspend, the system becomes unstable and quirky.
Can anyone help me get this running the way it should.

Hi,
Check whether all the supported patches are installed.

A couple of weeks ago I installed quite a few of the
patches in the recommended list.
Since then, I get the following message repeated
continually in the console window:
DPMSSet: Invalid argument
Power management problems
I'm runnig solaris 8 on a ultra 5. I looked in the
power.config file and in the startup scripts, but
couldn't find any reference to "DPMSSet." Any ideas on
the cause and solution of the message?
I never use the powerd daemon, so killing the process
seems to eliminate the messages.

Thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet problem

On my new Macbook Air (Intel Core i7) I'm trying to connect to my office network using a Thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet adapter, but the network system preferences say that the cable is unplugged. Any suggestions for how I can go about checking what's up?
Many thanks,
Adriaanh

I had this probem also in 10.9.
I was selecting Thunderbolt 1 from the dropdown list of interfaces.
It took a while to realize that Thunderbolt Ethernet is actually the correct option, lower down in the list.

Mac Mini and Gigabit Ethernet problems

My iMac will start to run on the gig network talking fine to my new Intel SS4000-E NAS, then after about an hour of inactivity the ethernet port will lose its DHCP address and drop to a 169 number.
If you open the network tool, you can not get a renewed address. The only way to get the interface back and running is to reboot.
I was working tuning Jumbo Frames to get the most out of the network, and I thought maybe it was the jumbo frames, so I moved it back to the default, but found that not to matter.
it seems to be the GIG port speeds that do this, if I run at 100Mb the port does not show this to happen.
Any comments Apple?
I have a Netgear GS116 switch, Intel NAS and several PC's, all with Gig cards, non of the PC's exibit this issue.
Anyone see this show up in their units?

We are not Apple, so we can't help you with that.
The machine isn't going to sleep is it?
Did you try a different port on the switch? Checking the cabling is an excellent idea. Sometimes they cheat and do not wire things to true Cat5 or 6 specs.

KT4 Ultra-B BIOS Update problem

Well, I runned Live Update BIOS and found out that I didn't have the newest version. So i downloaded the newest (1.4), and followed the instruction for the installation. After it was installed, every thing seemed okay. Untill I started the PC, then I got an 'error' message:
CMOS Settings Wrong
Press F1 to Run SETUP
Press F2 to load default values and continue
I checked the CMOS Settings, nothing I could find was wrong. So everytime I start the PC I have to press F2, or else it won't start, it will just jump back to that message. This is not so much of a problem, but when I have to use the default values from now on it _IS_ a problem, because default FSB is 100MHz, and I loose alot of CPU. I now have AMD Athlon 1500+ 1,35GHz because of that BIOS update. What I really should have is AMD Athlon 2200+ 1,8GHz.
So anyone that could help me with this problem ??

There is a reason why it did not work.
When you buy a board and put a CPU in it, the board may not detect the CPU correctly,
So if your cpu was a 1470Mhz Athlon and the board detected it as 2.2Ghz what would happen?
The CPU would try to run at 2200Mhz and blow up
So manufacturers such as MSI set the CPU FSB to 100Mhz, must modern CPUs run at 166Mhz so by having it at 100Mhz you prevent the board from overclocking the CPU.
Do you see how that is a safety feature?
Now when you flash a BIOS you clear all your settings and the board gets reset to the safety defaults (100Mhz). This also happens when you clear the CMOS using the jumper, thats why it did not work
I assume someone else originally setup the motherboard and CPU settings for you?

KT4 Ultra FISR C-Media line-in problem

Hi all.
Recently installed the KT4 Ultra - replaced ecs k7s5a
Very happy with the board so far.
However I cannot hear any sound from the line-in for this sound card. I'm using digital spidif output - from bracket. tv card audio out to sound line-in.
cannot hear the audio even if the mixer line-in is enabled.
The tricky bit is if i record video or use sound recorder it records the line-in audio!
I've never come across this before!
To make sure it wasnt the tv card I plugged in a radio - no line-in sound but if sound record - get sound from the play back of the created file!!!
Anyone know of a fix for this? Is it a dud m/b or component?
Apart from this issue i've been really impressed with the sound output from this M/B.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kt4 ultra problem

hello! i am having a problem with my kt4 ultra.
it originally booted, but once i hit delete to go into setup everything crashed. now when i boot, i get 2 beeps followed by another 8 beeps.
i've done alot of browsing through these forums and other sites, and heres what i find over and over:
10 Short
CMOS register
Check the motherboard and remove all expansion cards and replace one at a time.
i've done this and there is still a problem. am i doing the wrong diagnostics for the 2-8 beep combo?

i cleared cmos by removing battery and via the jumper method. no go.
the cpu/mobo/ram/video/ethernet were in another computer and worked previously. i sold them to my friend and had him buy a new case - i got everything setup the first time, booted, hit del to go into bios to make sure all settings were correct. it crashed and now does the 2-8 combo beep.
previously the mobo was in another case and we used different ram, but i still get the 2-8 beep combo using that same ram.
spec are:
350w ps

Problem with my MSI KT4 Ultra

Hi all!
I have a BIG problem, I have tried to look at this board, but there is many different answers out there ;(
I have KT4 Ultra with Athlon XP 2600+
I have set FSB to 166, and when I startup BIOS says Athlon XP 2600+.
But in windows system, it only says:
AMD Athlon XP2600+
2.09Ghz !!!!
768Mb RAM
Why is windows only says 2.09Ghz??
AND, I think my system is very slow. I used to have AMD 1200Mhz. And this sytem is almost like my last computer.
My System:
MSI KT4 Ultra ( MS-6590 ) with BIOS
CPU AMD Athlon XP 2600+
768MB DDR 400 RAM
GeForce 4 TI4200AGP 8x

Problem with KT4 Ultra and XP 2700

First excuse my bad english (i'm from Germany)!!
I have a heavy problem with my KT4 Ultra.
First my system:
AMD Athlon XP 2700
Mainboard: MSI KT4 Ultra (MS-6590) Bios vers. 1.1
MSI Geforce 4 Ti 4200 64 Mb
512 Mb DDR Ram Apacer Technology 512 MB 16x(32mx8)DDR-SDRAM PC2700U-2533-700(CL2.5 upto 167MHz)(CL2 upto 133MHz
Sound : Onboard
GlobalWIN CAK38 II Kupfer
Powersupply: Levicom 420W
Win XP SP1
Now the problen:
When i turn the FSB in the Bios up to 166MHz
the system crashes on Windows startupscreen!!
I've turned the FSP clock down to 164 MHz and Windows starts.But when i runned 3DMark2001 it crashes back to desktop !!
Then i turned the FSB clock down to 159 MHz and the system runns stabile!!
Now what i've already tried:
Turned down Ram timings and frequency (same prob.)
No heatproblem (CPU at 118.f)
Had the same system exapt an XP1800 instead an XP2700 and no problems!!
Called the MSI hotline (Germany) and they told me to type the FSB manually in the Bios (insted of numblock +and -). ?(
Still the same problem !! ;(
Has anyone the same problem as i ???
THX !!

Hi,
I would try other ram....
Or start from BIOS default settings and only change CPU-FSB....
See what happens...

Kt4 ultra bios 1.3 ati problem

I updated my bios a while ago and when i did i noticed pixels in weird places. I updated from 1.2 i was having problems with crc errors, after that i couldnt run any driver verision on my ati 8500le above 2.5 so i couldnt run 3.0a 3.1. i was just checking if anyone else had these problems when updating to 1.3 on there kt4 ultra. and i flahed twice the first time i thought it was a bad flash or something. i was running 3.0 and downgraded. i am hoping msi will fix this issue but who knows. overclocked or under clocked i still have the problem.
i am running 2.13GHz overclocked from 1.73
kt4ultra
768 ddr400 running at 333MHz
ati 8500le

I've done that, but the problem still exist.
I think it's more like a BIOS problem since there's no problem when I'm runnign 1.1 instead of 1.3

Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter problem

Hi all
I have replaced my black 2008 mabcook with the new 13" retina MBP.
I bought the Thunderbolt Gigabit Ethernet Adapter to connect to my office network.
A access without any problem to Intranet content and file server, but when I use Internet, where I must connect via a proxy, I constantly get error messages like "the server unexpectably stopped the connection" or a Proxy error "The number of HTTP requests per minute exceeds the limit".
I got my black macbook back to my office to test and I have no problems with it.
At home, I also have no issue using the thunderbolt adapter.
Any suggestions?

It is always best to speak to the IT and see what they think.
I was just guessing in my post - they should give you the full answer even if they cannot alter the settings for you.
From your side you can try to work out what is generating big amount of http requests (applications you run on your MBPr while in the office?).
Also USB to Eth dongle may slow you down :-)

but I understand that buying something worse than you already have is not really an acceptable solution.

KT4 Ultra: problem config. raid array IDE3

I owe the MSI 6590 KT4 Ultra BSR mainboard and I have difficulties configurring the RAID array in striping mode, on the IDE3 controller.
The manual describes on page 2-18 it's possible to connect up to 2 hard drives, cdrom, 120mb fd and other devices to the IDE3 controller.
Unfortunately only one of my two MAXTOR D740X-6L (6L080J4) 80gig drives is recognized by the array.
One Maxtor hard drive is jumpered as MASTER and the other is set up as SLAVE.
When I hook up the cable to an ordinary IDE port (eg IDE1) the two drives are properly recognized.
Both drives can be formatted using the regular IDE ports, this means without any cluster errors or other errors so the drives are physically OK.
Before I wrote this post I checked the support section again to make sure I am using the latest BIOS which is 1.1. I also downgraded to 1.0, but that didn't solve my problem either.
Since I work in a computer shop now and then I had the opportunity to check two Maxtor Fireball3 30gig drives on a different MS-6590 RAID board (BIOS 1.1.) and exactly the same problem occurs: the 2nd drive won't be recognized in the ARRAY on IDE3.
Please tell me what to do to make the striping option fully work on my two IDENTICAL Maxtor hard drives since MSI support came up with a standard email, which didn't cheer me up at all. Hopefully this time they will investigate this matter since no doubt more people will experience this.

Thanks for the quick response, though it's not satisfactory for me (of course).
Actually before installing the new KT4 Ultra I owed the KT266 Pro RAID motherboard. It's true this board has two controllers for the RAID option. Nevertheless because after reading the manual of this new board I was convinced I could connect two hard drives on the IDE3-channel. This is the reason I decided to go ahead and to upgrade to this new mainboard.
I guess I have to go back to my employer and fall back again to my KT266 (MS6380).
