KT4A-V boot-up hangup
Hi,
I have been running an Athlon XP-M Barton Core at 2133mhz successfully for about 6+months and tonight it refuses to get past the screen that reads: Press Shift-Tab to try network boot, Try other boot devices......
After i clear the CMOS settings it will run but when i attempt a restart, it hangs up. Short of throwing out the board and using a Mercury KT600 as a replacement, this is my last hope.
MSI KT4A-V
FSB 133mhz
AMD Athlon XP-M 2800 2133mhz stable
1024 PC2700 DDR Ram
XFX 6800GT
Maxtor 200 DiamondMax 8Meg buffer
Cooler Master Aero CPU fan
Atrix 550 watt PSU
Any help please would be appreciated
In very late reply to your help, it turned out to be a mainboard failure. Now I have the question of how to overclock the processor to 166 FSB. Here is my current config via Everest:

I try knocking down the multiplier to 12 and setting the FSB to 166 but the computer will not start and i have to clear CMOS to start over again. Any help at all would greatly be appreciated.

I just finished putting together a KT4a-V motherboard with a sempron 2800+ cpu.
THe board turns on fine and has power but does not even boot into the bios or even display anything on the monitor.
I think I pretty much checked everything and looks like I have everything connected ok.
Is it possible that my cpu is damaged? Also do you have to connect the atx 12 volt (jpw1) connector to the motherboard? When I do connect it and start it up the mother board powers up but then it just cuts power off after a second.
Thanks in advanced.Hej!
Yes you do need the 4pin 12volt connection, but even so your power supply might not be up to the job. Would you please describe it's power in terms of amperes.
Another common thing is CPU seating not perfect, or CPU fan being a modern, slow turning kind, not acknowledged by BIOS. -
I have recently built a custom machine. It work fine except on boot-up it hangs at the primary hard drive auto-detect. I then hard set my harddrive parameter and it still hang for 30 seconds.
Any help would be appreciated.

(MBP 13in Retina Late 2013 2.6 i5 16gb ram)
I installed Yosemite last night and all went well. I was able to restart/shutdown/sleep with no problems. I was listening to music via home sharing on my iPad and fell asleep. When I woke up, and went to wake the computer up, nothing happened (the computer was not out of battery power). I forced a shutdown and when I booted back up, it would not move past about 1/3 of the way through the apple logo boot progress bar, but I was able to move the cursor. After booting to the recovery drive and running disk utility operations, I still had the same issue. I did a safe boot and it worked, but I'd rather not have to do that every time I boot. Anybody else have this issue? If so, is there a fix? Thank you in advance. (Also, I had no time to check if this was posted before on the forums, so if it was, I apologize and a redirect would be great.)What solved my case was removing this from:
/Library/Extensions:
LogiMgrDriver.kext (fromLogitech!)

Very Odd Kernel Panic On Boot Up
I just today had a one-of-a-kind kernel panic on bootup from a completely shutdown machine. The box is a PowerMac G4, Mirrored Drive Door, dual-core 1.25 GHz, OS X 10.4.9, 512 MB factory installed RAM and 512 User-installed Ram for a total of 1GB. Have
Energized computer. Diverted attention. When I turned around to sit down and get to work, I was confronted with the following screen: There was the multi-lingual Kernel panic box on the gray screen, the "throbber" that usually rotates beneath the dark-gray Apple logo rotating away, and "overprinted" on all this was the "international no" symbol centered is a round-cornered translucent box (similar to what you see when you use the keyboard to alter the volume backing up the speaker icon), in the absolute center of the screen.
I powered down the computer and powered it up. Boot without a problem.
I then restarted the computer. Restarted flawlessly.
After using it for a little while, I did a full shut down and restart, used it for a little while, and shut down and restarted again. All these evolutions completed without failure or problems of any kind.
I've verified the startup disk successfully, SMART status is "Verified" for this hard disk, and have performed permissions repair successfully–with no indications of any permissions having to be repaired. All seems to be working normally and well.
Has anyone ever seen anything like this? I've Googled for this problem, and searched these forums, and have found nothing to compare to this.
For general edification, I've included the output of system.log for what looks like the time of the first failed boot and the boot immediately after. For the record, my two peripherals in constant use are a LaCie 60GB FW HD and a Wacom Intuos tablet, which is my primary somatic pointing device at this time–this log excerpt follows.
I cannot locate any report on this event in any kernel log. I also put the machine to sleep to check for kernel panic on wakeup from sleep (no problems there either). And the 512MB user-installed RAM is a Crucial memory module that has been in use for at least a year with no problems.
Thanks in advance for any insights.
Sam Klein.

The last one before that was 17 Oct, 07; the last one before that was 26 Jan, 07.
I just don't seem to have a panic log for this event. The system log is the best I could come up with. -
Boot Problems- Hard Drive Damaged? Something Else?
Yesterday my MacBook Pro went to the blue screen of death after freezing for a few minutes. When I restarted it, I couldn't get beyond the apple with the spinning graphic below it. I tried resetting the SMC and PRAM, archiving and reinstalling (which hung up every time), and ultimately backed up the files I could (many generated errors and could not be copied) using Target Disk. After backing up, I did an erase and reinstall, which was successful (mostly). After getting the system running again, I attempted to update from what I think is 10.4.5 to 10.4.11. At the end of the download, it crashed, and on restart would not boot again (apple logo with random flickerings of the "no" sign).
At first, I assumed hard drive damage for the following reasons:
-Something fell and landed right over the hard drive, putting a small dent in the open case
-The files that would not copy seemed like they could have been corrupted by physical disk damage
-The hangups seem like they could be caused by the same issue
The things that worry me about this diagnosis are the fact that the erase and reinstall worked, and that the problem seems confined to boot errors (it has only successfully booted once since the first crash).
1. Can I confidently call this a hard drive failure, order one from OWC tomorrow morning overnight, and consider it solved?
2. If not, are there any diagnostic tools I can use to help zero in on my problem?
3. What, if any additional information would he helpful?
Before today's successes/failures, I was all ready to pull the trigger on a new drive (Hitachi 7200RPM 200GB). However, now I'm not so sure. Any advice is greatly appreciated.Thank you again for your advice.
At this point, I am amazed to say I have it up and running and was even able to upgrade to 10.4.11, which caused one of the recent crashes. I have in fact prepared my data for "the unthinkable" (which has now happened four times in the last forty-eight hours), but this whole "working" thing is pretty creepy. (I tried to pop the top to see if the hard drive has any physical damage from the dent, but apparently the only thing harder to find in this town than a FireWire cable is a Torx T-6. I guess I'll be ordering OWC's lame eleven-piece $17 tool kit. Oh well.).
Is this normal? Can I expect another crash soon?
I think I'm going to try copying some large files to see if I can't repeat my failure. Maybe I've just been really lucky this particular time. -
Slow Boot after 10.4.3 Update
Hi,
I'm experiencing a really slow boot time after updating to 10.4.3.
This only effects my Dual 2.3 G5, the iMac G5 boots as normal.
It seems to hang for at least 2 minutes on the grey screen before completing the boot and launching the login window.
I booted in verbose mode <apple> V , to see where it seems to be hanging and this is what is on screen at the time:
Nov 23 16:07:04 localhost kernel[0]: IPv6 packet filtering initialized, default to accept, logging disabled
Nov 23 16:07:04 localhost kernel[0]: UniNEnet: Ethernet address 00:11:24:86:33:46
Then after almost 2 minutes it moves on with the rest:

I have no idea what any of this means or what is causing the delay in booting.
Any clues?
G5 Dual 2.3 /G5 iMac 20 Mac OS X (10.4.3)Hi,
I have the same problem. My iMac also hangs for about one minute at the same place;
"Nov 23 16:07:04 localhost kernel[0]: IPv6 packet filtering initialized, default to accept, logging disabled
Nov 23 16:07:04 localhost kernel[0]: UniNEnet: Ethernet address 00:11:24:86:33:46"
but with a different MAC address ofcourse.
I 've run the maintenance scripts and repaired permissions using Onyx but it did no difference.
Any other ideas?

How do I mount an external Firewire HD when booting into single user mode?
Hi,
How can I mount an external Firewire Harddisk from the Darwin Console, once I have booted into single user mode?
I'm trying to make a backup of all my files and then re-install my iMac G5 since it doesn't start the GUI anymore and I haven't gotten any responses to my question here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1104762&tstart=0
Thanks,
Torstenok, I executed the following commands:
/sbin/fsck -fy
/usr/libexec/registermach_bootstrapservers /etc/mach_init.d
autodiskmount
There were two messages:
UniNEnet: Ethernet address 00:14:51:32:19:b8
and
Aug 29 20:55:29 launchd: server 2e3b in bootstrap 1103 uid 0: "/usr/sbin/lookupd"[16]: exited abnormally: Hangup
I don't know whether this has anything to do with the commands I entered.
And since I don't know what the volume name for the external Firewire HD is, I typed
ls -l /Volumes
but the only volume that is being listed there is my iMac's internal HD.
What should I do next?
Thx! -
Intermittent boot up problemsI have a G5 Dual 2GHz machine
I have a G5 Dual 2GHz machine with 2Gb RAM. I have had an intermittent bootup problem every since installing Tiger.
The machine appears to start as normal, gets as far as the spinning cog wheel then just shuts itself down as if there was a power cut.
This happens every time I install an update and when I tryed to start up in verbose mode to try and work out why I can't see the message quick enough before it shuts down.
It will however boot up in safe mode and sometimes this fixes it if I then start up normally.
Other times I have to just leave it for about a half to one hour and it eventually boots up.
This problem is now happening more frequently not just after updates and can take several attempts to get it to boot properly.
If I run fsck in single user mode it reports that the file system is ok. If I run hard disk checks this also says everything is ok. I haven't as yet reinstalled a clean system.
Does anybody have any ideas? Is this hardware or software? Any suggestions appreciated.Hi there,
Thanks for all your tips which I have tryed but it doesn't seem to make much difference. In fact the machine wil l now on ly boot in safeboot mode.
The Apple hardware test reported no faults. Disk utility verified that the hard disk was ok and I repaired permissions. I ran Tiger cacche leaner and said yes to all options. I also followed Al's suggestions and used font doctor to check out the fonts. It found three corrupted which I removed but this also did not make any difference.
I looked in the system log and found the following :
I don't know if they means anything to anybody:

Problem booting up on macbook pro
Hey everyone,
Long story short I bought my macbook pro in August of 2011. Its the 15" with the Core i7 2.2ghz 4GB ram 750gb HD yada yada
Anyways I started having problems and I started noticing it this week.
about a day ago I went to turn it on after turning it off for the night. I noticed that it took forever to get past the Apple loading screen.
I googled and searched and tried everything people were recommending.
1. made sure nothing was plugged in to mac
2. booted into recovery HD and did a DU verified, and repaired everything and its permissions.
3. cleared the PRAM or whatever it is.
4. reinstalled the latest Lion clinet combo update
still nothing has fixed it.
I finally got past the stuck at apple loading screen, but now when I try to log in I enter my password and I get the pinwheel and it just freezes.
I finally after about the 20th force restart booted in safe mode and it logged on.
I uninstalled Avast restarted the computer and was able to log in.
what gives? I spent all this money on this toy and its less than a year old already having problems.
I'm about to do a reinstall of Lion and see if that helps. I just need to make a time machine back up.Do you have your Macintosh HD selected in System Preferences/Startup Disk?
Also, since you're still the warranty period, it might be a good idea to setup an Genius Bar appointment at an Apple Store. I had system hangups, spinning wheel at login and other issues that I felt were graphics related. When I took my Macbook Pro in to have diagnostics run, the graphics and mainboard were fine. However, there were some errors noticed during the hard drive check. It was recommended to replace the hard drive (no charge since I was under Apple Care). Since the hard drive was replaced, I have not had any issues and all the previous issues were resolved. -
Rp-pppoe won't connect at boot; LCP timeout
At my college, we all have our own PPP connection to the main server. To start it at boot, I've put the 'adsl' in the daemons array in rc.conf, and this worked for a long time. Then, some time ago, the service failed to start at boot. However, once I've gotten into X, open xterm and type 'pppoe-connect' or '/etc/rc.d/adsl start', it works fine.
Here's the log of when it fails to start up at boot time:
Oct 18 10:22:44 archie PPP generic driver version 2.4.2

However, you *will* need wpa_actiond installed for net-auto-wireless, if you haven't.
The other thing is, as the wiki says:
Note that wpa-config profiles does not work with net-auto-wireless. Convert them to wpa-configsection instead.
So you will probably need to switch your config profile to a configsection one (again, that's what I use and have no issue automatically connecting to any profile networks). -
What does this log mean? Fresh os install still can only safe boot
*My head is about to explode.*
*Last night, I pulled my old hard drive. put in new one and did fresh install.*
*Ever confident that this would magically fix my computer.*
*I can still only boot in safe mode.*
*I ran AHT. everything passed. I have reseted every thing and reset logic board. yes only one push of the magic button*
*below is a system log from before I put in new drive.*
*however, after new drive and fresh install and still can't boot I check sytem log and still get same message:*
*Cannot use ATS Persistent Store - switching to old FODB cache code*
*Is this my underlying problem?*
*What does it mean?*
*When I try to boot up normally, I get to grey screen , spinning wheel, then wheel turns pixelly and fuzzy with random colors juist where the wheel is and the grey screen with apple logo fuzzy then black.*
*Any words of wisdom will save my sanity.*

i only have apple keyboard, mighty mouse, and 20 inch cinema display connected. this morning took out memory and tried to boot up with individual pairs in the first bank. first the (2)256, the (2) 1g, and then the other (2) 1g modules. everytime I get the weird fuzzy wheel under the logo after a while, black screen flashes, then grey apple logo fuzzy screen then black forever.
I ran tiger updates this morn. still will only boot to safe mode. then tried to run leopard disk to install it
will not boot from leopard disk.
tried safe boot, then doulble click install leopard, restart, then the saga repeats with the pixely red square around the wheel.
these are fresh drives with only what came on instll disk loaded.
thanks again for taking an interest.
i love this system(well at least i did). I want to install leopard on my powerbook too but am terrified to do so right now since it is working and I have work to do. Can't afford to have no computer to do my work on...self employment is great?!
This is making me crazy. I anxiously await your words of wisdom. -
[VIA] Single SATA hdd support for KT4A-V
I have a KT4A-V board.
I just bought a SATA drive and connected it to SATA port 1.
The problem is that the array program (VIA RAID tool) recognizes it as a hdd and even knows how big it is, but I cannot see it in My Computer, nor can I do the suggestion that a lot of people have said to do on these boards which is to create a striped array with one disk. I tried to boot into the array program, which was fine, but I can't do anything when I'm there, it won't let me set up an array.
Anybody have any suggestions?is it an extra drive? if it is recognised by the BIOS, but doesn't show in My Computer, then you haven't partitioned or formatted it yet
right-click on My Computer, select Manage, then under Disk Management you should see the drive listed. create and format a new partition on the drive, then Windows can use it -
Purchased KT4A-V
Problem: I install network cards (NIC) and system wont boot. In fact, it won't even POWER ON.
I can't use onboard LAN chip - I have no driver for it, so I must use a card.
I have tried 3Com 3C905 and Intel Ethernet Pro card in several different PCI sockets.
I have tried enabling and disabling onboard LAN in BIOS.
I remove the card and it boots up fine. I put a card in a PCI slot and it won't
power up.
Is this a known problem with this board?
Thanks for any help.

This is all ordinary stuff, nothing exotic.
I have tried removing all components and inserting others - Hard Drives, RAM, CPU, CD, floppy. It does the same thing with all cmponents interchanged.
Remember, it boots up when I remove the network card and it fails to power on when I insert the card, either card in any PCI socket.
Thanks,

KT4A ULTRA 6590 DVD and Floppy issues
I'm stumped and frustrated...please be kind! I've upgraded my KT4A ULTRA 6590 Ver 1. with AMD Athon XP Barton 2500 for my kids computer. Everything works great except I cannot see files on either my DVD or 3.5" floppy...unless there is a disk in the drive when I boot. Oddly, I can burn CDs but cannot see the result until I load the CD on my other PC. Through several suggestions from reading the forum, I did go to Safe Mode and sure enough the floppy and DVD work fine. I also tried another known good CD RW and it also exhibited this same behavior.
The BIOS version when I start up is v3.0 (see below), but things appear to be pointing to drivers and/or BIOS. Did update/install the nVidia driver for the video card and also updated to VIA 4 in 1 ver 4.55. Have made several unsuccessful attempts to use the Live Update 3...it basically does not do anything, or it must be incredibly slow when it goes to the MSI website.
In various other attempts to find the correct BIOS for MSI KT4A ULTRA 6590 vER.1, I visited the MSI iste "BIOS Search" and discovered that it has a version 1.4 (4/29/2003) and v3.0 (5/29/2003)...this looks fishy to me. On yet another MSI Mainboard BIOS detail it says use Ver 3.0, but in the very next line says "This BIOS cannot be used on KT4 Ultra (MS-6590)".
I was further consfused when attempting to determine which BIOS was installed. "MSI Info View" program BIOS tab says that "AMI BIOS version is 07.00T", While the MSI Fuzzy Logic program on the MSI info page says the "Chipset : Via KT600". Neither of these appear to be correct.
At this point I ready to throw this thing away and buy another board.

-Windows XP Service Pack 2Cleared the CMOS and made the advanced chipset configuration changes...but no improvement. I did also confirm that during boot, the drives are recognized properly.
Not an expert, but since it operates normally in Safe Mode I'm still suspicious of the IDE, graphics drivers, and/or conflicts. When I look at the device manager in XP, the graphics drivers is new as expected, yet the IDE are standard XP. Since I updated to the 4-in-1 version 4.55, I would have expected some change to the IDE driver dates, but it appears is using the standard Windows drivers...but not sure.
