KT6-Delta bios 5.7 problem

hi I've recently installed an update on the bios on my motherboard (update 5.7 for kt6-delta)
and ever since i installed it my internet won't connect, it detects the drivers but the internet can't send the pass username to mts.
is this a known bug? or was there just an error installing the update and should rewrite the bios possibly with an earlier update or is there some other problem i might not have considered because every time i install bios updates it resets my preferences in the bios

Hello,
Are you saying that the LAN appears to be working but no Data flows in or out?
All network activity is dead?
I have had this problem too on my KT6 delta.
When you flash the BIOS it changes the memory and CPU settings.
Also after a BIOS flash you should clear the CMOS using the Jbat jumper.
(turn PC off to do this)
If you enter the BIOS and disable the LAN,
DO your CPU and memory settings,
save and exit.
Go into windows, delete the lan from device manager
restart PC, it should be gone.
Then restart again, enter the BIOS enable the LAN, save and exit.
windows so detect it again, does it now work?

KT6 Delta stability and performance problems

Hi all!
My brother and I recently assembled my new computer. Since then I’ve been experiencing two problems that really bug me. I’m no expert at this stuff so if you guys need more info from me to try to help, just say so!
Problem 1:
The optimum setting for my processor is a CPU FSB Clock of 166 Mhz, but I’m only able to reach 160 Mhz. 161-163 will work but is extremely unstable. 164-166 will cause Windows to dump to a blue screen and reboot.
I’ve seen that other people on this board have had similar problems. Note that I’ve set CPU Ratio to Auto and SDRAM Timing to SPD. What could be causing the problem? Could a simple BIOS update help (I’m running the one that was delivered with the motherboard)? How about clearing CMOS?
Problem 2:
Maybe due to the above problem, I’m also having stability problems when I do get into Windows. On some days it’s fine, other days it’s a mess.
All of a sudden, while surfing the net or gaming, the computer will dump to a blue screen with the info that Windows has been shut down to prevent further damage to the system. One of two error messages will be displayed:
“A thread tried to release a resource it did not own” (more common message) or “IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL” (less common).
The computer will then reboot automatically. It’s really hard to specify when this happens: it could come at any time.
The system I have is the following:
KT6 Delta (MS-6590) motherboard
AMD Athlon XP2500+ (1.833 Ghz)
TwinMOS PC3200 DDR-DIMM (2x256Mb)
Seagate Barracuda 80Gb S-ATA
My old IDE 12 Gb harddrive
PowerColor Radeon 9800 Pro 128Mb
TDK CD-RW (40x/10x/40x)
Windows XP Professional with Sp1
Have any of you had similar problems? I appreciate any help I can get!!!
Regards,
Stefan

judd321: couldn't agree more! Thanx to all the people who post here and try to help out computer illiterate people like myself. Interesting to see that you've had the same problem.
Thought I'd give you an update on my situation. I've done some surfing and gotten some mixed messages. Some say that the included PSU that came with my Chenbro Gaming Bomb (FSP Group 350W, delivers 28A at +3,3V, 30A at +5v and 16A at 12V) is plenty to power a system with my specs. Others, like the good people on this board, claim that 350W just won't cut it.
I've just invested in an Aspire 520W (looks creepy and mod-ish). The dealer claimed that it really does deliver 520W at maximum performance and not just at peak. Before I install it I will try the following just to make sure it's the PSU that's causing me problems:
1) Confirm that I still cannot boot up with CPU Clock at 166Mhz. If all is still the same, Windows won't even start. If I, by the grace of the good Lord, do get my system running at 166, I'll monitor unwanted reboots. If system is stable, fine. If no:
2) I'll start by clearing CMOS, with battery and power cord out for at least 10 minutes. Then enter BIOS and run default settings EXCEPT CPU Clock which I'll set to 166Mhz. I'll try to reboot computer to see if this has done the trick. If yes, great. If no, I'll try the same thing but also set memory speed to 333. If that still doesn't work:
3) Clear CMOS with power cord disconnected. Unplug unneccesary components like CD-ROM, fan (not heatsink , floppy drive, any USB devices and my old IDE hard drive. Reboot the computer and set CPU Clock at 166. If the system works, it was definitely the PSU since the absence of the disconnected components will have allocated more power to the connected components. If it doesn't work...does anybody want to buy a pretty decent system that doesn't allow for full processor power and experiences frequent, unwanted reboots?
I'll let you know how things work out!

KT6 Delta and XFX 6600GT Problems

I have had this mobo for a while now and have not had any problems until today.
I recently got a XFX brand Geforce 6600GT AGP video card.
I uninstalled the drivers for the current 5900 card and installed the new card and here is my problem.
With the new card in, it will first see the bios of the video card then go to the boot screen where the system memory test is done. Once this test is done it hangs. Doesnt do anything. Cant even get back into bios. Crossed the jumper and get back into bios. reset all settings and reboot. Same thing.
I reinstalled the 5900 with no problems. have run msi autoupdate and updated the bios to the current version and the via chipset drivers still wont work.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to get this card to work with this system>?

Sorry,
Spec's are:
MSI Kt6 Delta-LSR
Barton XP2800
Windows XP-SP2
Thermaltake 480W
1G Corsair 3200C2
WD 80G
Maxtor 160G
Audigy Platinum
NEC 2500A
Samsund dvd-rom
(Nothing is overclocked)
Rails read (live)
3.3v = 3.38v
5 = 5.13
12 = 11.98
Just seems that its an issue with either the bios or the chipset?? Dont know.
The emachine has a P4 but it is an older emachine. When I hooked it up to
the P4 I didnt even have the molex plugged in and it worked!
I currently have the PNY 5900 and all is well. Posts and boots.
Im about to give up on the 6600 unless someone can rescue me!

Promise duplication process fails after upgrading BIOS (KT6 Delta bios 5.7)

After upgrading the bios for my KT6 Delta from 5.0 to 5.7 the controller fails to duplicate the discs in my mirror set.
After copying 1% if will fail and report that there is something wrong with the target disc. I have used the diagnostic tool provided by Maxtor, but there does not seem to be anything wrong.
Questions:
1) is the duplication process autonomous, i.e. wil incorrect bios settings affect the duplication process
2) Since BIOS 5.0 an update of the Promise BIOS is included. Because of CRC I can assume that any BIOS downloaded from MSI will be correctly flashed. Even after CMOS clear the problem still occurs. Does anyone experience the same problem?
3) How will I create a mirror set and duplicate a working disc to the other bypassing the mirror option in de Promise BIOS?
Thanks in advance for any help..

I have been using Promise RAID controllers since the FastTrak66. I used to select mainboards based on this controller because I am used to it.
So the solution to the problem will not be based on mistakes in using it ;-)
Either the drive is defective (which special software did not proofed to be), or the BIOS is somehow incorrect, or there might be some settings outside the controller affecting it.

Kt6 delta bios flash question... cant find answer in old posts!

my MB is hosed right now. bios update failed. tried force update and it reads from the floppy for a bit, then nothing. (no beeps)
-are the beeps suppose to be from the mb or the case speaker?
-how long after the update does it beep (i waited 60 sec. before just turning it off, still no good)
-is there anything else I can try? possibly force updating an older version?
-will msi fix this board? how much will it cost?

if your BIOS chip is not soldered directly to the mainboard, you can buy a replacement BIOS chip from www.badflash.com

Hello!
Pull out the main power cable
Clear CMOS by moving the JBAT jumper or removing the battery for a minute or two.
When booting again, enter BIOS by pressing Del button.
Set FSB to 166, and set the correct time. Don't do anything else. Save&Exit.
If the problem remains, you have to remove the HSF/cooler and the processor. Clean both with pure alcohol and nail polish remover (garnish?), so no old grease is still there. Add new thermal grease, by putting a small drop on the very chip, of the processor. Before putting them back, look carefully on the thing in which the processor is placed, so you don't put the HSF/cooler on back-wards.
Good luck! Please come back if you wonder about above, or if problem remains.

GF4 TI 4400 problem on KT6 Delta

I have a Gforse4 TI 4400 128mb on my KT6 Delta mobo.
The problem is that there is LOOOTS of coloured dots on the screen and the comp reboot offen for no reason.
I have the newest nvidia drives + VIA 4 in 1.
I read here earlier that i could be that the PSU is to weak. I have a enermax max 350w silent (http://www.ocaddiction.com/reviews/psu/enermax_3g365p/)
It says both 185 and 350w on it. I cant figure out if its a +3,3 +5 or +12w.
Can i sheck/configure this in BIOS??
The GF4 works fine on my other comp with a old asus mobo and a Chieftec ATX 360W PSU.
Is the enermax to weak??

Yeah, i am haveing the same problem wif my brand spanking new MSI TI4200 8xagp.... i got it 2 days ago, the card worked fine for the first day, then when i was playing Neverwinter Nights, it looked like some of the pixels in the screen had been lost, i changed the res, and still had the same problem. i rebooted the pc and still had the same problem.... its strange though, i uninstalled the drivers, and the problem was gone, then i installed the lates nvidia drivers and had it again... its strange, i will now go and remove some of the fans and my cold cath, they might be draining too much power for the card to use properly... but i am using it now. its strange this problem is. i got a 400watt psu, but i dont really know if thats the problem... im off to remove some fans.

MSI KT6 Delta PROBLEM

First, my hardware :
Everything running @ default speed & settings.
AMD XP 2700+ (running @ about 47C idle and about 55C in work)
MSI KT6 Delta (v2) with latest bios
512mb DDR (333) CL2.5 Elixir
Seagate S-ATA ST380013 (80gb), with WinXP Pro (SP1) installed
Samsung SP1203N (120gb), as primary master on IDE1
Samsung 52/32/52x CD-RW, as secondary master on IDE2
Connect3D Radeon 9600 128mb
PSU Antec TruePower 380w:
+5V 35A
-5V 0.5A
+12V 18A
-12V 1.0A
+3.3V 28.0A
+5VSB 2.0A
I keep getting some strange BSOD. No matter what I do with the machine. Windows locks up completely and after about 1min, that BSOD comes and machine boots.
( http://www.saniainen.com/bs.jpg )
In normal usage, it comes about 1-3 times/day.
Mostly it comes when I copy some files from disk to other.
But it comes everytime when I try to decompress big (over 400mb) ZIP-files.
Everything did work with my old board, MSI KT4A. The problems begun when i changed the motherboard and added the Seagate S-ATA hdd.
I have ordered new memory, Kingston HyperX 512mb (333). Could it be memory-related or something with S-ATA ????
I have tried everything, latest BIOS, latest VIA4in1, memchecks etc...

I had the same problem on a differnt mobo and all I did to fix it was switch the IDE cables around on the devices.
?Give it a try?
It may be a jumper you forgot to change on the IDE devices.

Problem with KT6 Delta-LSR

Hello
I bought MSI KT6 Delta-lsr today and haven't had it work yet.
Usually when I turn on the power only fans start to run and i get memory or processor error from d-bracket leds. Memory chips and processor should be ok since sometimes If I clear cmos and start pc, it seems to start fine and all leds are green but system will hang in winxp loading screen. Changing options in bios doesn't seem to do any good, usually boot after editing bios will cause again memory or processor error.
Any idea what is causing this problem?
Specs.
Amd TB 1ghz -> too old for this mobo?
256mb seitec ddr 333 (also tested Twinmos memory chips)
Msi kt6 delta-lsr
Msi gf4 ti 4200
harddrives, cd, cd-rw, the usual stuff...

Thank you for moving this topic to right forum.
I was wondering if those memory chips just doesn't work with my processor.
Could someone explain me this fsb and ddr speed stuff? Not sure if my tb runs
with fsb 100 or fsb 133. Or does those setting even matter for ddr rams?
Manual says that if I have cpu speed 100 and 333 ddr it's not supported but 133 and 333 should work. Still pc sometimes seem to start up but freezes soon. So to me it seems memory and proccessor works.

PLEASE help me fix KT6 Delta video problem!!!!!

So I did a build for a family member utilizing the KT6 Delta. The video card is an Nvidia GeforceFX 5700LE. The problem is that periodically the monitor will just go black for like a second or two, then come back on. This is really making the person mad and I don't want to take the flack.
Today I am going to do a full reformat and give him the latest bios in hopes or correcting this issue. Does anybody know how to fix it for sure??
I figure it relates to the video somehow and maybe AGP voltages, Master R/W states, and things like that may fix it.
Can anybody help me PLEASE?????

Well the same occurence happened with a Nvidia TNT2 video card as well. This monitor and that card worked fine in their old system. Actually everything was the same from the old system except for the motherboard and memory which is new for the system that I just built them.
So I guess that brings it down to the motherboard and RAM. The memory is running at SPD timings and acts fine. As for bios changes I just did the normal. Nothing is too agrresive and I just disabled ports and devices that aren't in use. Any ideas?

Problems installing windows on 36.7GB raptor on KT6 Delta-LSR

I've been trying to get this damn thing to work for a few days and then someone told me about the forum here at MSI. So far I've been reading different threads now for a total of approx. 3-4 hours and I don't think I've come across someone with my exact problem unless I've overlooked it. I've had two 40GB drives for a couple of years now and I decided that I'll upgrade to a WD 36.7 GB raptor. I thought all would be good until I popped it in and tried to install windows on it. I boot off the Win XP CD and press F6 to instal the SATA drivers. It accepts the drivers on the floppy, recognizes the drive and reformats and continues until, right after the format it says, "The disk or CD may be damaged......blah blah blah." I don't know if this is referring to my HDD, but it seemed like it was referring to my floppy b/c when I press enter to continue, it asks me to insert the floppy again, and then it reads the floppy and gives the same error. I've been trying to get this to work for the past few days now, and I think I tried almost everything. I disconnected all other optical drives and HDD's except for the Raptor and my dvd writer and still same prob. I tried d/l new sata drivers from MSI and still same problem. I changed where I plugged the sata into (since there were two ports) and still same thing. I wanted to update my bios (v5.5) but the readme file said not to flash from a floppy. I don't have another drive to flash from, so I don't know what to do about that. Please anybody help!!! My system spec are below...
MSI KT6 DELTA-LSR
AMD 3000
1.5 GB RAM
ATI Radeon 9200
WD 36.7 RAPTOR
Samsung 40GB 7200rpm
LG CD writer
LG DVD writer
Enermax 300W
SB Audigy
D-Link wireless network adapter
....I think that's about it.
When I tried installing last the CDRW and Samsung drive were disconnected....

Hello,
I would like to comment on the 1.5Gb of ram.
Please use 1 stick and try again.
Also I hope you are not mixing modules of different make/spec/size.
1GB + 512MB
512MB + 512MB + 512MB <this one is good if thry are all the same make/model/revision
256MB + 256MB + 1GB
You can test the memory with this program.
http://www.memtest.org/download/1.51/memtest86+-1.51.floppy.zip
- Extract all the files to a folder, then run the install.bat.
- It will make a memtest bootdisk.
- Then you must boot from this disk, please test each module individually.
- If they are all fine then try your combo and see what happens.
- Test each module for 1hour, if you get any errors instantly then you can stop and change module.
Do not flash until you are sure that the memory is ok.
HOW TO FLASH BIOS
==============
Download this run it to make a boot disk.
http://www.nerdlabs.org/bootdisks/diskimages/wboot98se.exe
Then get a 2nd disk, copy everything in the BIOS zip to it.
Boot from the RAMDRIVE DISK, start computer without cdrom support.
once its all loaded, put in the 2nd disk.
type
copy a:\*.* c:
press enter
type
c:
press enter
type
adsfi709 a6590vms.570
press enter
it should flash the BIOS.
Then you must turn the PC off and clear the CMOS, (JBAT jumper).
Reconfigure all of your settings.

MSI KT6 DELTA FIS2R problems

Well, I finally received my new KT6 DELTA FIS2R motherboard (I replaced my K7N2 Delta ILSR). After getting the wrong model and one with missing parts... I think I received a defective one! I tried to format and make a new installation of Win Xp. While it tried to make its first boot, the thing crashed and it would not reboot. I tried resetting the BIOS and then i got the message: CMOS corrupted or damaged. (The diagnostic led indicated the same thing). I experienced another problem, while I was using my computer, the CPU was running at 60C, in windows! (before reinstalling). Does anybody has the same problems with their KT6 boards... Does it need to be returned?
Thanks for the help,
Valkyr

From your post its not totally clear where you are at. Does the system still POST?
First of all, it is normal to get some kind of error message the first time after clearing cmos. Entering bios or hitting the key for "load defaults" will make that go away. If you do that and errors still happen in bios then you have more serious problems.
As far as the temp goes, redo the cpu installation making sure you totally remove all the old thermal pad/compound and use proper amount of new stuff.

KT6 Delta FIS2R BIOS stopped detecting IDE1 & 2 optical drives

I am working on a new system that has developed an unusual (to me) problem. The system is partially built and consists to date of the following:
1. Chieftec MA-01BND case with Super-Flower TTGI TT-520SS (520 Watt) power supply.
2. MSI KT6 Delta FIS2R motherboard with an AMD XP2600 CPU and one stick of Corsair CMX512-2700C2 RAM.
3. Two Mitsumi MTM-1.44BL floppy drives.
4. Two Maxtor 6Y080MO HDD’s connected to SATA 1 and SATA 2, not in RAID.
5. Sony DDU1621BK DVD/CD ROM mastered on IDE1.
6. Sony DWU10A-B2 DVD/CD RW 1 mastered on IDE2.
7. Asus V9520 VS AGP video card.
8. Windows 98SE installed on HDD1.
Everything was operating properly, and I was installing software and drivers for peripherals, when the following problem appeared.
At boot-up, the MB logo pops right up; but then, it takes approximately 80 seconds for the BIOS to initiate. Boot-up then proceeds as normally, and Windows 98SE initiates normally. However, neither optical drive appears in Program Manager; and, pushing the “open” button on either drive fails to open the tray.
After the BIOS initiates, the usual message directing one to press the “DEL” key for access to BIOS Setup never appears. However, if the “DEL” key is held down anyway, the system will enter Setup. Note that there is also a delay of approximately 80 seconds for this to initiate.
Once into Setup, the “Standard CMOS Features” page indicates no IDE devices. Resetting the detections to “Auto” across the board makes no difference. Resetting the CMOS via the “Clear CMOS Jumper” and via removing the CMOS battery changes nothing except that the CMOS returns to the default settings, and the BIOS still fails to detect the optical drives.
Since SATA1 and SATA2 are detected and operating, I believe that the chipset is OK because they are served by the same Drive Station on the chipset as IDE1 and IDE2 which aren’t detected and operating. I also consider damage to the motherboard itself to be an unlikely cause because that can’t account for all of the systems, either. I suspect the BIOS because of the following:
1. The BIOS is so slow to initiate, as is the entrance into setup.
2. The direction to press the “DEL” key for access to BIOS Setup never appears.
3. The BIOS has stopped detecting the drives on IDE1 and IDE2.
4. All of these functions that take place prior to chipset initiation.
Does anyone know what happened and what needs to be done to return the BIOS to normal operation? Or, is this a board failure, after all?

Easy to do with all that info.

OK, what is BIOS eventually booting from? Is your SATA working?
What appears to be happenning is that the BIOS times out while trying to detect the IDE's (in this case, optical drives) and then just goes ahead and boots. The SATA's are working fine, as is Windows, once I wait out the time out for the BIOS. Except, of course, Windows also can't see and doesn't indicate in Program Manager the opticals that the BIOS couldn't find, which makes sense. The odd thing in this scenario is that, once the BIOS times out and goes on, it does not provide the customary message to hit "DEL" to enter Setup (but holding down "DEL" when the BIOS procedes will take me to Setup anyway!
I talked to eSupport today, and the techie says it's a BIOS problem that their update will resolve. Well, of course it WILL; they sell updates (duhhh). Being the trusting soul I am, I'd like some independent confirmation. I've posted this on 4 forums hoping to catch someone who has seen this happen before, in addition to contacting eSupport (Amibios's update shop) and MSI Support.
MSI's Support Department is, of course, silent, as usual.

MSI KT6 Delta-L sound problems

Hi, I have an annoying problem. My sound gets disorted and after one or two seconds I get a Blue Screen..
This only seems to happend with Operation Flashpoint Resistance and Lock On Air Combat (both uses a lot of memory). Computer is rock stabile unless this.
I have tried both Win2k/XP and flashing my BIOS to the most rescent one, as well as the drivers.. I have also tried without the PCI-cards, and disabled some features at the motherboard, but with no help.
But when I used Via AC97 drivers instead of C-Media, it crash no more (aswell as no sound drivers at all), but I have no surround sound (I suppose that driver don't support my sound chip fully)...

MSI KT6-Delta-SR + Athlon 2400+ (266) Problem

Hey Guys,
I have a problem with the MSI KT6-Delta-SR and Athlon 2400+ (266).
I've tried about 6 different boards and 6 different athlon 2400+ (266fsb) and what happens is randomly when you turn the computer on the processor is displayed as an athlon 2000+ or athlon 1700+ (using different ram and other components too).
I check in bios and the fsb is still set to 133 (which should be correct for a 266fsb athlonXP).
Running latest bios for the board (v. 5.5) and have tried previous bios revisions.
Anyone come across this? is this an incompatability with the KT6-Delta-SR and 266fsb athlons?
could it be a v.core issue? (what should the v.core b for athlon 2400+ (266)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Borjo jnc, aopen, gtr 350watt psu. it's not a psu problem.
yes 2 problems.
1. incorrect cpu recognition
and 2. random restart before xp loads.
after random restart cpu is recognised as either athlon 2000+ or athlon 1700+
this occurs sometimes before detecting hard drive, but mainly when second bar of windows xp pro loads (running xp pro +sp1 Plus latest updates and drivers. and regardless of what bios revision i'm using.
Tyco cpu id software says athlon2400+ and correct specs when booting properly. if i look at the top of the cpu is says athlon2400+
