Reads from internal diode sensor on those AMD chips that have one. Otherwise it comes from a sensor on the circuit board under the socket-a.

The system temp sensor may be between the first PCI slot and AGP slot, or somewhere near there if not mistaken. If you use a hot graphics card, that part will get hot too. Even it it's not, bad air flow around that area will accumulate heat too. Try with your casing fully opened and compare. If the temp dropped, then it's OK. If not, then you might have an issue.
Again, as long as it's stable, any temperature is OK.

Excuse me , info about KT4 Ultra temp issue BIOS 1.4

Hi, all, excuse me if I disturb u, but I've not understood compleltely if the low temps recorded by MSI KT4 ULtra sensors with BIOS 1.4 is a problem or is a real reduction of the temperatures offered by the new BIOS.
Thank you very much for your time
Bye

No, its not enabled by default - and the temp issue is for real - not only reporting with less than 5-8*C, but also reversing the winbond sensors(CPU-SYS). I must tell you that the Cooler XP utility still works no mather if CPU HALT is enabled or not, taking another 5-8*C from your temperatures. Running an AMD Athlon XP Palomino 2100+ almost at 20*C with regular air cooling seems damn' science-fiction and the system with 5 degrees or more than the CPU.
So stick with what u've got, if it's ok and stable. And trust us, we've checked the BIOS, we've checked the temperatures with alternative measurments. We are not that ******

KT4 Ultra and XP 2400 Temp

Hi,
when I first installed my xp 2400 on my KT4 ultra mobo my temps were between 32c and max of 38c. Now that it's been working for a while my temp stays between 47c and 51c. Is that too hot? What is too hot? What else can I do to lower my temps?
I have the AMD approved heatsink listed in my specs below. I am using Artic Silver II. Am I going to have to reapply this every month or so?
Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks in advance

I don't believe those temps are too high but it is curious that they are higher than before.
Did you follow all the instructions when you applied the Arctic Silver?
Also, I would definitely open up the case and give it a very thorough cleaning. Especially between the fins of the HSF.
I do know with mine, two front and one rear case fan, that it gets dusty as heck in about 4 weeks!! And we use an electronic air cleaner on the furnace. After about a month, I pick up two cans of air and clean it out very well (with some left over).
Do you have any case fans? If you do, clean them as well. If you don't, it may be a good idea to add them front (air in) and rear (air out).

KT4 Ultra Rocks!!

Well,,..With a new board and a few weeks of waiting my problems with my KT3 Ultra have been solved and i got a KT4 Ultra for 80$...It pays to take something back if it doesnt work...well heres the specs...:
KT4 Ultra BIOS V1.3
Athlon Xp 1700+ Thoroughbred @1.98Ghz..155FSB X 12.5/13.0. Set in bios. Vcore for cpu is at 1.675
GForce 4Ti 4600
20 Gig Maxtor HD
Antech SL400 Power Supply
Soundblaster Live 5.1
512 MB DDR PC2700 (as far as i know)
In the post it says memory is running at 333FSB but i dont think that is correct...but everything else runs good.
i didnt think i could get this 1700+ to run this high but it seems ok..stable no problems....Im still only getting high 11000 on 3dmark 2001 se but its because im using windows 98se...until i upgrade to Windows Xp ...and also buy either a new nvidia card or go Ati im probabley maxed out.the CPU also runs at around a nice low 40c in temp..under load..so it is running cool....i am really suprised....Thx agoian for all your help......MSI Rocks!!!!...
Also the 400watt power supply was the key to solveing alot of my problems...power is the key to haveing a good stable running system......300watts just wouldnt do it....atleast not for me...

its like i said i have had MSI for over 4 years and i know the boards well...this is by far the easyies board to tweak..and perfect.....do you really think windows xp will help my video performance.....i really only use this pc for video games ....thats what im working towards...a perfect game machine....its only 94$....is it worth it or should i just be happy?

KT4 Ultra - Monitor shuts off

Hey guys...i posted a while back with my problem regarding errors within windows, even after reformatting, and also it just randomly powering down..i solved those errors by replacing the memory chip and also replacing the HSF as the proc. was running rather hot...now, however, i'm faced with another problem...I'm using the PC and then all of a sudden the screen goes blank, says its not recieving a signal...so it seems the Vid.Card is just shutting down and not outputting anything..and it happens randomly, just during regular use, not gaming or anything, so i highly doubt the vid card is overheating...i then have to do a cold reboot and the screen works again for another 10 minutes or so and then just goes blank..its gotten to the point where the computer is barely usable with this screen problem so does anyone know what or have any ideas on what i could do to rectify this? Thanks!

Thanks!

yep, i surely tested the cpu temps and memory and it was working without a hitch, now this monitor issue came into play...the monitor is rather old, could it just be shot? the PSU AMPS to the rails are as follows "Output: +3.3V@28A;+5V@30A;[email protected];+12V@15A;[email protected];+5VSB@2A". Is that my weakness? or perhaps the vid card is just dying? What is most probable? Thanks for the help!

KT4 Ultra Need Help!!!

I have a KT4 Ultra Mobo. AMD 1800+. Thermal take PSU 420W. Coppershim. Thermal grease. I changed the FSB to 133 from 100. And everytime i do heavy load install, like updating winxp to sp1. it keeps rebooting. this thing is so unstable. Please help. I need some advice. I also have 3 case fans. and two fans on the PSU. idle temp is 45 degrees. some people here have lower temps than that. why is that?

i have an update... i used the cooler xp to cool the cpu down during installation. it worked, but as the installation goes, it had an extraction fail due to lack of memory or swap file or corrupt file. memory is fine. so i was thinking, maybe it's the cooler xp processor usage. any ideas?

Serious problems with KT4 Ultra

Hi,
I am having very serious issues with my KT4 Ultra board. Before I go any further here are the specs:
KT4 Ultra w/ AMD Athlon XP 2100+ (not overclocked)
512 MB PC3200 RAM
BIOS V. 1.4
40 Gig HDD ATA 100
ATi Radeon 64 DDR Vivo
PC Alert 4 Temps:
System: 38*C
CPU: 41*C
Apparently everything is within normal specs. However, when I go to play a game like Half-Life my computer often spontaneously reboots itself. I have tried changing/upgrading drivers for almost everything.
Another problem is my onboard sound. It as of late now plays everything in a distorted way. Drivers that I have tried to download for it come up with the message "VIA AC`97 NOT FOUND" Essentially the drivers from VIA dont even think my sound is there (oh but it is.) I had to settle with windows update for this as nothing I can find on this website works. Last but not least, sometimes when I am browsing the web or doing almost nothing, maybe chatting on IM or something, my comp freezes solid. Nothing will work except the reset button. These problems have just lately come about and they are very frustrating. Any reply would be greatly appreciated.

Read my page on lock-ups and reboots as this can be many things.

Kt4 ultra- beep in games

I have a Kt4 Ultra and when I'm gaming on line I get a beep ever once in awhile. I get out of the game to check if it's getting hot and the temp is around 46 - 47 deg. It doesn't cause a problem with the game( slow down or lock up) but I don't know the cause and I don't want it to get worse. Any ideas?

Onboard sound

Is that a system temperature or a CPU temperature? there shouldn't be any beeps if that is a system temp. You sound like you're running PC Alert4. Open the program, go down to the bottom left corner and click on "menu", then choose "settings". Disable "Sound Warning". That should take care of it.

I have Three Questions.
>My CPU has a FSB of 200, but the bios (version that came with board) shows it as 100 FSB. See here for athlon bus speeds
Is it ok to increase the bus speed without damaging the processor.
>The two brackets that i have fitted (s and d brackets) do not work. Why?
>What are the optimal and settings for my ram (PC2700 512MB DDR) and GFX Card (MSI GF4 TI4200).
>Oh yeah, my CPU is now operating at a higher temp than before (using old K7VZA ECS Mobo) @ 50-55. Is this normal??
Sorry for the n00b questions, it's just that this is the first time iv ever taken my PC to pieces and re-configured it myself :P
Thanks in advance. -RjA

I can help a little 1000MHZ AMD chip=200FSB XP CPUs=266FSB this is CPU speed . AMD 1000MHZ CPU needs to run @100FSB where a XP CPU can run @133FSB This is MEMORY speed . Trying to crank that poor old chip up to anything other than 100 will do you NO good. You need to buy a bigger cpu of the XP kind. A lot of the older XPs can be had for a low price. 50c isn't not super hot. My KT4 runs in the 40s. You might want to think about a bigger cpu cooler to bring the temps down a bit. Most of your settings should be left at system default, since you only have a 1000MHZ CPU. When you go up to an XP then you can make a few changes. Regards BIGDADDY51 :D :D

Overclocking with MSI KT4 ULTRA

Hi,
I'm currently overclocking my XP 1600+ Palomino to just under an XP 2200+. My Idle temp is 39C and 47C at Load. My CPU is still locked and I'm running at 167FSB x 10.5 = 1758Mhz / 334 Mhz DDR. So far this is the highest stable overclock I am able to get with my current config. I want to get up to atleast a FSB of 180 - 185 to give my GeIL 512MB DDR433 PLATINIUM some sort of challenge, but I can't get the board to post at anything higher than 168FSB. Is it my board topping out or my CPU? What kind of overclocks is everyone else getting with their KT4 ULTRAs? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks )

Hehe so u think all is about MHz!!!????
If u think so go and get some education about overklocking!
I have reached 209FSB!!! Thats overkill!
And im running my system now on the min level x9 Multippel.
And that wil give me a damn strong and powerfull system, I can overklock it to reach the MHz frequence to but i dont right now, i must get a new mobo first, MSI is only !!!
Its up, i wil get a ABIT, or EpOX mobo. then i+ll show u :D
Hmm i have a picture if u want.
But i dont know how to make a link to it, becouse i dont have a webpage now.

Kt4 ultra/xp2800+ can't quite fsb166

First post here from a technodummy.
I've read other posts with similar probls, but not exactly the same. Just popped the XP2800 in today, installed the latest 4-in-1s and v. 1.4 bios, then cleared cmos.
Only difficulty was tuning up the fsb to 166. XP opened just for a few seconds, then crashed and restarted. I dropped it down a step to 165 and ran for 10-15 minutes before it crashed and restarted.
Now I'm down around 160 and it seems okay.
It's been up and running for 40 minutes without a hitch. *Very* fast, and recognized as a 2800 by the system (which wasn't the case running at 100 or 133, obviously).
SO my question is, should I be satisfied with what I've got, or is there any other tweak to push it to 166 without crashing?
(Incidentally, checked the PC Health section in bios setup and the temps seem reasonable - 39-40c.)

512 DDRam
XP2800+

Sine the temps are reasonable, there might be two other issues going on:
1) Your BIOS is not up to date. The BIOS that your mobo came with might not support 2800+
2) Your power supply is not strong enough to do 166 MHz on FSB.

ok went to a computer fair to look at the cases and psu
i explained to one of the sellers there what problems i had and he said he had a similiar problem before and suggested that i put some branded samsung ram in this i did and it booted up first time at 133fsb
so i decided to put the old ram in as well and low and behold they both work ok
quake 3 working as well
the only question i have one is pc2100 the samsung one
and the old one was team 2700 i pushed the speed of the ram upto 333 and it works fine

KT 4 ULTRA TEMPS

I just updated my bios to 1.4,and up dated pc alert 4.0.5.0..my temps got to be wrong!! 29c on the proc,30c on the case temp whats up,with the barton, it was, 42c and 36c.why the big change???? 8o
motherboard kt4 ultra ms-6590

Temp issues unfortunately comes with BIOS v1.4. Cpu Halt Command Detect option causes temp reading problems but you cant solve it by disabling it. Anyway bad temp reading is no problem unless your system is stable.

KT4 ULTRA CRITICAL TEMPERATURE

What is critical temperature in the BIOS? Temperature for Shutdown...i am asking because a my fanless XP Athlon 1700+ when temperatures reach 72-73C tha systems does not shutdown HELP!

My Dear all you dont understand me...
I have a XP 1700+, a KT4 Ultra BSR and a GlobalWIN CAK II cooler...I remove the fan of the GlobalWIN cooler in order to check what is going to happen if fan fails...i set the critical temperature to 70C but when according to BIOS the temp was 71 72 my PC did not shutdown...This is what I am asking..Why the PC did not shutdown? Is BIOS premature? Critical Temp is the ShutDown Temp? There should be a thermal protection circuit....any thoughts will be helpfull
