KT4V (MS6712) questions.

Hi, A few months ago I picked up this mobo cheap and have been happily running an XP2400 cpu along with a 9800pro and 512mb PC2100 RAM but am now thinking of upgrading.
Would I be right in saying that a 3000XP cpu is the fastest this board supports with the latest Bios ? Also what is the fastest DDR Ram I can use with this board ?
I have downloaded the newest bios (1.9 ?) but have yet to flash it, is it easy ? Do you have to do it from the floppy drive as I haven't got one ?
Thanks.

It is possible that running the RAM and CPU at different speeds could be the cause of the errors. It is always best to run CPU & RAM at 1:1 ratio for best stability.
But, with the RAM causing errors at it's rated speed, it generally means the RAM is bad. As you bought it thru Ebay, I would guess someone has overclocked it in the past, thereby damaging it. As long as it runs great at 266, and causes no errors, you could just run it at that speed. However, if you decide to upgrade the CPU to a 333FSB, you could run into the same problem again.
Another option to try, is raising the RAM voltage to 2.6V or 2.7V and try the memtest again. Sometimes increasing the voltage will allow RAM to work better, more so for large sticks of RAM.

KT4V (ms6712) and XP 2600+ not compat?!

I used to have an XP 2000+ and it worked w/ the 1.9 bios, but now I just got a 2600 for free, and it won't POST or anything.
Could this be b/c of bios upgrade needed? I looked in the other upgraded version and it mentions 2400, etc but no 2600.....
Should I update bios? I ask b/c I don't have a floppy installed and I can get one (borrow) but I wanted to know if it was worth it.
The processor works too, it came from friend. And mobo is fine for I put back in the 2000+ to see if it'd work and it did.

"...I'll do it, but honestly would that really be the reason for the no POST?..." Nobody can assure it's THE reason, but could be one. Also, could be the P.Su. and it's lack of juice in 3,3v. rail, or perhaps any other "solution" invented by you to appear doing what you should do to prepare your PC to work. Thinking all advises are for silly people, because you can avoid them by other means, show your creativity but seems they (or one of them) doesn't work, and your'e taking unnecesary risks. So you should redo one by one all your "personal solutions" to see if you find the one that keeps your PC from turning on. You see, thermal grease is used only to keep air out in the part where CPU die meets HSF base. Used thermal grease is not as liquid as new one, so it could let some air in. Air isolates that point and temp. would rise too much and could burn CPU. System can detect it and make CPU stop working. Is it happening now ? Who knows ? But your "solution" doesn't help by any means to assure there isn't a problem there. If HSF was good for 2000+, it doesn't mean it can do it's job with the 2600+. If P.Su. worked in other system that uses lower power and doesn't depend so much on 3.3v. rail, it could work OK with it, but that doesn't mean it will not work OK in this rig. So, as you see, there are limits on what you can do or not.

I have a KT4V and would like to install ati 9600XT. Do I need to upgrade BIOS?

I have a KT4V (MS6712) running version 1.0 BIOS (never updated). I tried an ATI Radeon 9600XT a couple of days ago. The system and display went nuts. I figured the card was DOA, but I have since reaad on this board that a newer version of the BIOS was to fix the ATI 9600 problem. Should I try to update my BIOS to run this card since I need to update my system.

Mod please deletee or lock this thread. It is a dup.

KT4V BIOS update needed for 9600XT

Friend, does it means that Mod must have each and every mobo???
I also just an end user of MSI products, just that I've more rights to this manage this forum and trying the best to help up to my knowledge so don't be unreasonable and I've already told you that 8x AGP cards are backward compatible to 4x AGP port.
Btw, I'm glad that you are able to find a way out on your own.

ATAPI Incompatible message when booting

Hi Have just purchased a KTV4 MS6712 board and cannot get the board to recoginise my CD-RW (Sony) and my CD/DVD drives during boot up. I have attached the drives to IDE2 and set the jumpers to Master (CD-RW) and Slave (CD/DVD). When Secondary IDE master and slave is set to Auto in the BIOS the drives are not detected. When I set the BIOS to CD/DVD I get error message 'ATAPI Incompatible' . I have tried all combinations of jumpers with both drives attached and only one attached..nothing works. These drives worked perfectly on my previous MSI motherboard.
I attached CD-RW drive to IDE1 (with the HDD) and set the jumper to Slave and this works fine. But nothing works on IDE 2.
I'm using
KT4V (MS6712)
Athlon XP 2200+ (1.8ghz)
Sapphire ATI 9000 Graphics card.
256MB of DDR 333
WIN 98SE
Can anyone help??

I have checked all the jumpers and each is set correctly.
I tried the following and got the results stated.
Connected brand new CR-RW only to IDE2. Jumper as master. Set Bios as Auto. Result : Not detected.
Then set BIOS to CD/DVD. Result : ATAPI Incompatible message.
Tried Same drive in IDE1 as Slave with HDD as Master. Result : Both drives detected and available.
Tried Same drive on its own in IDE1 as Master. Result : Drive detected and available.
Tried HDD in IDE2 on it's own. Result : Not detected.
Nothing seems to work in IDE2.
Only thing I haven't tried is 80pin cable..But why would everything work in IDE1 with the 40pin cable and not in IDE2.
Could the Board be faulty??

System crash (blue screen) during CD burn

Hello All,
I need your advise due to serious problem with my PC. Per technical specification located in the following site CPU support: the motherboard supports 133/266 MHz FSB and Ratio 12.5.
Unfortunately, I found out that my recently purchased computer doesn’t work at such frequency(FSB=133, Ratio = 12.5), namely, all operation related to the DVD-ROM (Pioneer DVD-120) or Samsung CD-R/RW eventually caused system crash. I tryed to reinstall the OS, however it has not solved the problem. Only frequency decreasing allows to avoid the crash(blue screen of death). The proper volatages and temperature value are as follows: Vcore = 1.74V. PS_3v = 3.25V, PS_5v = 4.95V, PS_12v = 12.24V, Tcpu = 48C, Tsys = 33C.
Please advise,
Thanks, Raz Noam
Here is my configuration:
Athlon XP 2000+
KT4V MS6712 motherboard
256 Mb DDR 333 Smasung
40 Gb IDE master on IDE1
60 Gb IDE slave on IDE1
Samsung SW 248F master
Pioneer DVD-120 slave
Windows XP Home Edition

System crash that I have experienced occurs only during CD Burner or DVD activities. It is very random, however I have notice that when I am burning CD (test mode only) the system crash occurs quite often. I attribute it to the fact that this mode is perhaps harder than only play. However, system crash occurs also during play mode. The crash is actualy stop mode with different error core, I mean, stop 0xd1, 0x0A, 24, 77. BTW, I dissabled autoreboot option. So far it was no problem with reboot after crash. So, I suspected some problem with mainboard, however, perhaps, that PSU can impcat as well. Unfortunately, I have no experience with PC hardware, therefore I need your advice based on rich experience. What I dare to assume that the problem rather in hardware than in SW.

KT4V Socket A MS6712 ver 1.0

I recently installed this mother board.. With it came several cpu enhancers like fuzzy logic.... I have searched and cannot find any information on how this program works... Like the cpu multiplier.... How does it work and what does it do?? For instance mine says 15* 133.4 shows my cpu speed at 2000 mhz and another # that says cpu 1.65v... Is there some place one can go and get educated on how to operate this program and what each of these mean... The instruction book barley gives any detail... I'm trying to make my cpu run at the fastest, safest speed.... I do a lot of on line gaming..... The current game i play is Delta Force Black Hawk Down.... My download is 1532 and my upload is 256..
Thks

Peace Out

CPU Speed won't make a difference to your bandwidth.
Wut CPU do you have?
As well what kind of cooling are you using?
If you wanna overclock ur CPU, the easiest thing to do it just raise the FSB a little.
Also fuzzy logic comes with an auto button. Try it out if you want. It tests the maximum speed that your system can be stable at. Basically it keeps increasing the FSB until your comp crashes. If you do use auto, you prolly should decrease the FSB a bit after its done testing it.
As well get a good fan.

Voltage problem with MS6712 KT4V

hi...all
i have prob with a level of tension on the motherboard.In bios i cans see in PC HEALT that the +12V is approximative 13V-13,5 V(-12V is correclty at -12V)
I think that is a problem,
i'm not sure:when i have connected cable of reset switche,led,power switch i am not sure that is correctly maked.The del's work, switche work....but.....i'm not sure for pin's....
can give me a answer plz! ?(
thx

most psu work to plus or minus 10 percent on 12v rail
so it in theory should not go over 13.2v
as to them i can only suggest reading the manual
most cases the most common colour is the - line

MS6712 Video and LAN problems with Windows 98SE

Can anyone help please with a problem that’s been baffling me for weeks.I
The computer in question is a TIME Powerstation with AMD 2600+ processor with 1024MB RAM, Nvidia Geforce FX5200 and Windows XP Home.
Have set this computer to Dual Boot to Windows 98SE (Using Acronis OS Selector software).
My problem is that after many attempts, have so far been unable to successfully load drivers for the Nvidia GeForce FX5200 graphics card or to get the LAN function to work in Windows 98.
For the graphics card have tried a number of the more recent Nvidia Detonator Win98 drivers, all have either produced an error message (‘While initialising device IFSMGR: Windows Protection Error’) or a blank screen. Necessitating reverting back to the Standard VGA Driver with its maximum of 16 colours! The LAN function does not work at all in Windows 98SE, though it does in Windows XP – again suspect a driver problem.
The motherboard of this computer is a MSI Microstar MS6712. Have tried the ‘VIA Chipset 4 in 1 Driver’ to no avail. Are any more/different drivers required for Windows 98SE?
Would appreciate any advice in what originally was envisaged as a simple task: getting Nvidia Geforce FX 5200 graphics card and the motherboard’s built in LAN to run correctly on Windows 98.

I have your board.
1. Windows 98 won't recognize more then 512MB of RAM.
2. I had problems with the FX 5200 Ultra on this board. Occasionally when I booted the system, I would get a black screen right after the post when the OS was about to load. I've been hearing a few people lately stating problems with the KT4V-L mobo and the FX 5200 Ultra. I promptly returned the card and got a Radeon 9700 Pro instead. I have never been more happy since I made that decision. I will never put another Nvidia card in this mobo again. I also had issues with the Geforce4 MX card I had. I've come to the conclusion that Nvidia sucks.
3. Make sure your BIOS is updated to 1.9, and al lyour VIA drivers are updated. That may help you too.
That's all I can offer.

[GeForce 6] Odd issue with my 6600 VTD256

Sorry for hijacking your thread yesterday Twigg.
My system specs are:
MSI Neo 648F Mobo
1Gb (512 x 2) PC3200 Kingston RAM
MSI 6600 256MB VTD (AGP)
1 Seagate 80Gb HDD
SoundBlaster Live 128
3 Com 100Mbit NIC
OS: Win XP SP2
I used the MSI Live Update Utility. Mobo's BIOS was flashed, XP all updates installed. I downloaded MSI driver 77.6? for the 6600. Here is what happens.
With the original 6600 drivers(66.xx) on the CD, games work fine etc. If I install any other newer MSI driver, games work fine, BUT Real Player, DivX, Windows Media Player 10 use 99% of the CPU. I rolled back to the 6600 CD Driver and both games and videos now play. Has anyone found a work around for this? I would really like to be able to use the newest drivers. Any help will be most appriciated.

I Have same problem with NX6600 VTD256
My system:

MSI NX6600 VTD256 AGP
1x Samsung 120GB + 1x WD 40GB
SB Live! 5.1
OS Win XP Pro SP2 + all updates
All drivers are newest, exept VGA, of course.
Last working VGA driver was 71.25 on CD provided with VGA card. Any newer driver cause problem posted by mancuso. That problem is with ANY video ( AVI, MPG, RM, DWD..... ) in ANY player ( Mediaplayer, BSplayer, RealPlayer..... ) or "In-game players" ( for examle intro in "Silent Huner III" )

Can not use TOUCH function on Nokia 6600 slide

Can not use TOUCH function on Nokia 6600 slide-
turned on sensor in phone settings, but when i touch the PHONE it does not work.
Please, tell me how use this function or maybe my phone is out of order

As long as your Sensor Settings are On within Menu, Settings, Phone, Sensor Settings then you just need to do the following -
Tapping
The tap function allows you to quickly
mute and reject calls and alarm tones, and
to display a clock just by double-tapping
the back or front of the phone when the
slide is closed.
Select Menu > Settings > Phone >
Sensor settings to activate the tap
function and vibration feedback.
Mute calls or alarms
Double-tap the phone.
Reject a call or snooze an alarm after
muting it
Double-tap the phone again.
Display the clock
Double-tap the phone.
(If you have missed calls or received new
messages, you must view them before you
can see the clock.)
Simply, if you double tap the screen when the slide is closed and you can see the clock appear then it is working.
I hope this makes it clearer for you.

Unable to run Mega PC 865 Pro with 6600 GEFORCE?

Really hoping someone can help here.
I have a MEGA PC 865 PRO, and in it I have a Hauppauge 150 MCE Capture Card, a 160Gig HDD, DVD drive, 512MB RAM and a Pentium 4 2.6 Prescott.
This was running great, but action sports looked very blurry in the background. I decided that this was due to the on board graphics card not coping with the refresh rates required.
SO - I purchased the XFX GEFORCE 6600 DDR 128MB with Dual DVI Output.
After installing it initally worked fine (first 10 minutes) - and looked like I was home and hosed. BUT - It freezes radomly. Usually after 5 or so minutes of the PC being booted up. Someitmes quicker after the initial.
I am trying to find the cause.
I have removed the Hauppauge 150 MCE card to see if this helps both temperature (more space) and power usage (less devices). I have also disconnected the DVD drive to assist with the power.
BUT - It still freezes up. Locks up and the only way to fix is to reboot - but the problem happens again.
Anyone know what the issue is here?
The power supply is as follows:
MAX DC Output 250W
(+3.3V & +5V = 120W MAX)(+3.3V & +5V & +12V = 200W MAX)
It should be noted that other people have run the 6600 in their Mega PC without power issues.
If anyone can help decipher the problem please do let me know. My inkling is it is either power or temperature related - but hopefully there is another fix!
Thanks all!
JD34.

is it only one game in particular, or does it happen with any 3D application?
do you get problems when just using 2D graphics in Windows?
which Nvidia drivers are you using? you can get the latest from www.nvidia.com
also make sure you have the latest Intel chipset drivers from downloadfinder.intel.com

Kt4v w/geforce4 ti 4200

I have a kt4v via kt400 chipset based MSI board that I purchased 2 weeks ago online. I have had nothing but problems and I believe the problem is with the MB.
With the MB I purchased an AMD 2400+ CPU plus 333Mhz 2700 DDR Ram. I have a GeForce4 TI 4200 64mb AGP Video card installed.
I first tried installing windows 2000. During the install I get a Blue Screen stating that ACPI support is not available on this MB and I have to install without ACPI support to continue. In an attempt to fix it I updated the bios to 1.6. This caused MANY many lock-ups. When I backed-off to 1.5 things seemed to work better but what I did notice was that w2k sp 3 made things a whole lot worse (know that I formated my computer about 10 times and re-installed trying the many combinations)
Then I tried Windows XP Prof. It doesn't, error it just hangs during the text part of the install. If I disable ACPI support in the bios it installs, but I believe this is a feature that is requried and advertised. Now that I have XP installed (bios level is still at 1.5 plus ACPI is disabled) I still have problems. At what appears to be random intervals the screen will goto about 320x200 resolution and then thick white verticle lines within blocks appear all over the screen and eventually the computer is completely locked (sorry, this is hard to explain).
Initially, I would believe this to be a video card problem, BUT here are my reasons for thinking otherwise. 1. The ACPI problem that still exists makes me think this board is flawed ?? 2. I have owned this card for 6 months and used in my last computer without incident.
Sorry for the long question but I wanted to show that i've tried many different scenarios before resorting to this.

OK, I have run memtest on my computer with no errors.
I found on another thread that I may have a bad video card, but that doesn't explain why I can't install an OS with ACPI enabled.
Is there anyone out there who can help ?
THANKS SO MUCH IN ADVANCE.
Stosh
