KT6 LSR Boot Problems

Hi,
I just built this system and when I push the start button on the front of the case (Cold Boot) the fans all come on but that is all. Then I have to push the reset then it will post and go to the raid looking for devices screen and eventually will boot. I tried I tried a new PSU and it does the same thing. Any idea why it is not starting properly and any way to get it to stop looking for Raid devices?
How dop I determine my Bois on this board?
Thanks,
Tj
All parts came from a kt3 and worked fine.
My system is
Lead Power 550w 24a PSU
XP 2200
Coolermaster Aero 7+ coller
Kt 600 LSR main board
512 mb pc 2100
wd 100 gb (boot drive)
maxtor 120 gb

Hi,
I made the change in the bios and it no longer wants to find the raid devices (THANKS) for that one.
It still on a cold boot, like it has been off over night will power up, fans will come on then the monitor go's off and nothing else happens. I then have to press the reset to get it to boot. Seems like the board is defective or something. I put in a new cooler since this all started and a new PSU and it is the same.
The cooler is the 3rd one that I have tried and it does the same thing. The Aero 7+ does plug into the board but in order to see the fan speed I would need to cut the sensor wire and hook the power to the PSU and the sensor to the connector on the board, Kind of a pain. Maybe BAS will get lucky and get a response from MSI on the problem.
Thanks All,
Tj

KT6-Ultra Boot problems

I recently replaced my mobo with a new KT6-Ultra when my old KT3ultra died.
It works fine when running but everytime I boot the machine from cold in the morning it has trouble. It comes up with the MSI loader screen, then the raid check and then it goes off. The 4 LED's on the back come on indicating aCPU failure. If I power the machine of and then back on again it works fine!!
I have reseated the CPU, replaced the fan, put new heatsink paste and it still happens each and every cold boot. Works fine on warm boot though?
Any ideas?

Guy ! this is one of the most posted problems in this forum. They call it the " Cold Boot Group ". The thread is KT6lsr Reboots and you can find it on page 3 or 4. Now is on page 3 down. Don't waste your time in hardware changes as it will take you nowhere. Seems to be a Mobo bug ( some of them ) Only can get right cold boot when system is over 20 C degrees. Other than this, all are saying is a great Mobo.

875 P neo-lsr boot problem

Hello all, I've got the following problem with my 875 P neo board:
The system fails to power on properly 95% of the time.
Sometimes the hdd inits and the nb fan goes on, sometimes it doesn't. The LED's gives either an keyboard controller or AGP initing display diagnostics message. The system never comes as far as lighting the display in the cases when it doesn't work. The system boots in 1 out of 10 cases so switching it on and off until it works is the only way to boot it.
When fully booted it works perfect though.
I've tried changing graphics card and keyboard but with no sucess, also tried setting the memory voltage to 2.70 with no real increase in sucessful boots.
Sometimes when the system actually boots it reports that the 'memory timings are set too tight, resetting' even thoyugh I've set the settings in the bios to 'slow', although it does not report this on all sucessfull boots.
I've got the following specs:
Pentium 4, 3000 Mhz, 800 FSB
TwinMOS 512 MB, PC3200, CL 2.5 RAM (Approved by MSI)
Super Flower / Le pont 420 W PSU (P4 approved)
MSI 875P NEO-LSR
IBM 75GXP hdd (master on chain 1)
Asus CD-R (master on chain 2)
Asus GeForce 4 Ti4800SE 128 MB DDR 8x AGP graphics card (brand new)
Keytronics brand new 'standard' keyboard
MS explorer optical 3.0 USB mouse
BIOS rev 1.6
I've tried changing the graphics card and keyboard for other products from microsoft and gainward.
Anyone got any idea what could help me?
Best regards =).

One thing that makes me wounder:
For some reason the multiplier is set to 203 x 15.0 when booted (according to corecenter), but in the bios it says 200 x 15.0 (with my 800 FSB 3 Ghz p4).
Now the thing that makes me wounder is why is it doing this as it results in a speed increase to 3043 mhz?
I should note that my P4's multiplier is locked and cannot be changed in the bios...
I'm having the same ''problem''.
Are you currently using BIOS version 1.6?
Because with my BIOS version 1.2 nothing appeared to be wrong with the FSB and CPU/ memory clock.
Then I Flashed to v1.6 and it overclocked my system.
My CPU is now running at 3043MHz with a 811MHz FSB ( Core Center says 203*15) and my memory is also running at 811MHz.
Can you check the clocks of your graphics card? Because my Radeon 9800 Pro was running in v1.2 at stock speed (340MHz/380MHZ) and now with v1.6 at 351MHz/391MHz.
I don't mind about this ''overclocking'', but when it fu**s up my hardware I can't blame MSI because they are not responsible for overclocking X(

KT6v-LSR Boot Problems

I'm only giving the specs for certain items because I'm only trying to boot it with these installed.
KT6v-Lsr
AMD XP 2400+ T-bred
Thermaltake Volcano 6 cu+
Antec 430 Watt PSU (+5v=36a, +12v=20a, +3.3v=28a, -5v=.5a, -12v=1.0a,+5vsb=2a)
I've been having this problem since I bought this board and put it together earlier this week. I first tried to power the system with my old Antec 300 Watt psu. When I read the other posts on this board I went out and bought a 400 watt psu, same problem. I finally went out and bought a better Antec 430 watt psu, still same problem. Please help. This is what happens when I try to boot up (same problem, all psu's) the D-Bracket leds show Sys Power ON, then Early Chipset Initialization, then Memory Detection Test... and then the system powers down. I would think that with 20a on the 12v I would be set, so I'm starting to think the mobo is just bad, and might just return it. Would appreciate any help though.

In fact, feel grateful that the newer boards have the ability to detect the CPU temp rising too fast, and shut the system down to save that costly CPU's life
Without that little feature, you could fry a CPU in just a couple minutes

KT6V-LSR boot problem

I encounter a strange problem(which I think is because of main board):
- Sometimes when I press the power on button(to power on the system),then the system don't really starts, only the HardDisk(red) LED is ON, the PowerOn(green) LED is OFF. The monitor remains black, with a LED blinking.
- While the system is in state described before, if i press the Reset Button, then: the PowerOn(green) LED turns ON too,the monitor receives signal(it's LED stops blinking, by remanining ON), and the system starts OK(everything is ok).
What can be the problem?
the system configuration is:
- MSI KT6V-LSR, SocketA, AMD Athlon & Athlon XP & Duron 550MHz- 2+GHz, VIA KT-600 chipset, 266/333/400 MHz FSB, 3 DDR DIMM max. 3 GB, PC3200/2700/PC2100, PC1600 DDR SDRAM, 5PCI, 1AGP 8x, 2 UDMA66/100/133 Bus Master IDE, 6USB 2.0, 1P/2S, PS/2 bill/egér, ATX, AC 97 6 ch. Audio

Hello,
Did you build this PC or did someone else build it?
Open the PC, remove the case side panel and check the JP1/case connectors.
Check if the power switch, reset switch, hdd LED are Power LED are plugged in the right place.
The best way to do this is to remove all the case connectors and start again, plug 1 at a time and see if it works better.
Start with the front case power switch first, plug it in and see if the PC starts when you press it.
Make sure the PC is off when you do this, (turn on when you are ready to test).

KT6 lsr high fsb boot up problem fixed

Luckily I don't have the "20°C" reboot problem, but I did have a problem booting up at high fsb speeds. It seems that the motherboard must remain energized while not in use in order to boot up at 200+ fsb speeds for me. If I switch off the main power to my surge protector I can't boot up, and I have to clear the cmos and boot at 166 fsb. Then I can move up to 200 mhz from there. I was really getting annoyed because I like all the features of the kt6 lsr, but a MB that can't boot is useless. I forget who mentioned this in the "kt6 lsr reboot" thread but thanks

Bas mentioned bootup problems after long power downs (i.e. unplugging power supply). Thanks for the idea

Boot problems KT6Delta lsr

Hi there.
I have a boot problem with my kt6 delta lsr.
I have just installed it, the former MB was a biostar with a via chipset kt133/686a
at first It couldn´t start up, but it helped when I flashed the BIOS. (the MB has been used by another person for some months) then it want me to choose F1 to acces the setup or F2 to load default settings. If i choose F2 the MB beeps once at stops. If in setup everything is fine, it have deteced all my devices. Then I use save and exit but it does the same. If I boot from CD rom with my XP CD it boots fine. I tried to "repair" my installation, it works fine until the it reboots and want to start the HD for finishing the repairing it just stops.
would it help if I erase and format the HD and install windows again?

Did it ever boot normally?
Until today, it had never boot abnormally.
Did you install any new software or memory just
before this started happening?
I installed some fonts last night... no new software immediately preceding this, however. Norton anti-virus, Microsoft Office, and a nightly WebKit build last week, but I've used it without problems since then.
Have you launched Disk Utility from your install disk
(located in the file menu) and Repaired Disk and
Repaired Permissions?
Not yet -- I was still in the denial / hopefull thinking phase of repair. Will do that and post back here either way. Thanks.

KT6 Delta LSR FSB problem solved!

Here's some FYI for anybody with boot up troubles. A friend made a suggestion that got me thinking the dividers might not be set quite right on my mobo so I decided to raise the FSB to 210 and it solved my booting problem. I've tested this out several times and it definately works. Instead of trying to run 11 X 200, I'm at 10.5 X 210 and scoring great:
Anyone having troubles might want to try this out. Good luck.

Cpu halt doesn't function (kt6 lsr)

The cpu halt doesn't function after I've activated the option in the bios (sometimes work, see next-->).
The temperature for the cpu is the same (around 58 ?C) using the same programs and I'm not doing a lot. But later that I resume my computer from an s3 suspend it works, the temperature then stabilize around 47 ?C after a few minutes. I don't understand why. I think that a driver or another thing in the OS is interfering and the s3 kill that. I'm using win xp sp1 + kt6 lsr 5.1 + (2500+ @ 200 x 10.5) + msi fx5200.
(Excuse my english, my native language is spanish)
thanks

Bas, I can't get into this because I admit I'd be way out of my depth
So I can only humbly offer my layman's logic:
- MSI BIOS has bugs (e.g., non-functioning CPU Halt, cold-boot prob) so why should Corecenter be exempt from this potential?
- some forum contributors have posted problems with Corecenter
- KT6 temp sensors are the same Winbond sensor chip that's been around for some time on KT3, KT4 & of course other board manufacturers, so MBM have long got used to it (like saying only a Ford main dealer can understand Delphi automotive parts fitted in a Ford car?)
- KT6 temps for a particular CPU being generally reported so much higher than KT4 boards does seem a bit illogical
- I've read a lot of posts elsewhere from other MBM users who don't trust MSI temp readings and who are more knowlegable than I am on sensors
I do agree with you that MSI should be best placed to know the true temps and I do agree I'm in no position to know whether MBM is more accurate.
Oh, and I'm an MSI fan, not an MSI knocker. Still don't trust Corecenter temps, though.

Corecell not working on kt6 LSR

Hi thanks for coments
Hola, Refly no está en Temuco, ¿tu crees que sea un problema 100% de fuente de poder?en estos momentos mi pc esta inestable, cuando estoy en windows derepente se pega o a veces se reinicia de golpe, tengo recien instalado xp pro de cero sin nada de virus.Cuando instale el ventilador la primera vez me marcaba la temperatura 60 ºc y cuando se ponia trabajar subia y a los 63ºc se me pegaba en computador o se reiniciaba, luego cambie mi ventilador box del procesador xp2700+ por un evercool de 4400 rpm y la temperatura se bajo de 60 a 55 ºc.Es confiable actualizar la bios por una beta la 5.3 que anda circulando?¿tu crees que el comando cpu halt fuincione adecuadamente y no se ponga más inestable cuando lo saque la msi en su proxima version de la bios?
gracias

Kt6-lsr drivers

Hi,
I'm running WinXP + SP1 with latest via4in1 drivers (installed all LiveUpdate3 recommended drivers). My problem is that there is still "Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller" listed as Oher Devices (?) in Windows Device Manager. I don't have any additional cards (expect Radeon 9700 Pro) installed yet (clean XP install), so that has to be my motherboards controller.
Do I have to install the via usb2.0 patch? KT6-LSR is not listed in supported models, but according to MSI Drivers & Utilities cd VIA USB2.0 Patch is installed (highlited together with other installed drivers).
All help is appreciated!

..." Do I have to install the via usb2.0 patch? "
..." but according to MSI Drivers & Utilities cd VIA USB2.0 Patch is installed "
Yes, is a little confusing..
If your Mobo User's guide tells there are only USB2.0, then it is so.
If you have istalled all drivers (CD and SP1), try deletting all USB itmes in device
Manager (Includding the one with "?") and reboot and let Wind. install them again.
In my mobo I have USB 1.1 and 2.0 and had to do it 3 times before getting all installed.

KT6V Weird boot problems

Hi..
I'm having this weird boot problem (and no it doesn't seem to be the standard one)
OK..
I have the following :
AMD Athlon 2000+
KT6V LSR mainboard
2x 256 Crucial PC2700 memory
IDE Hard Disk (120gb segate)
Creative 5700ultra Graphics card (AGP)
Cd Rom
Chieftec 400w PSU
WinXP Pro
If I set my CPU FSB to 100mhz (everything else on auto).. win Xp pro boots fine and all is pretty good except that my chip is now seen as a lowly 1.25ghz..
If I then set my CPU FSB to 133 or 166 then the machine boots (ie it beeps etc..).. starts to load windows xp (I get the logo and that's when the problem happens) and either black screens (ie.. nothing and the monitor turns off) or blue screens with the windows message saying that windows has detected a hardware fault and has halted the system..
I know my memory, chip, heatsink etc all work because just over an hour ago they all worked fine in my KT3 ultra.
What is going on as I've tried almost everything to try and solve this, with the only option to set the FSb to 100mhz which is incorrect for my CPU.
How do I fix this.
I've looked through the forum but this is not the same problem as simple reboots.. this is weird.
If I can't fix this then I guess it'll be send it back.. which is a shame because I like MSi motherboards.
Thanks
Slippery

Hi..
I've checked the CPU heatsink.. and nothings wrong !
(Can't check the voltage but I know the PSU is Ok as I did run it in a custom case with 4 Cd writters, 4 HDs, loads of lights etc.. before I moved to this new plain case tonight)
What's weird is that set at 100FSb it's fine but at 133 or 166 it just crashes after the loading XP logo is displayed. Up until that point it's all fine.
But why does it run Ok at 100mhz and not 133mhz ?
Please help.. before I end up fixing this with a hammer !
Thanks

K7N2 Delta-L: Strange cold boot problem & solution

My K7N2 Delta-L has a problem cold booting when the vcore is set in the bios at 1.65v of higher. After a cold boot, you get a blank black screen. I noticed that even if you run at default speeds but set the vcore to 1.65v of higher the problem still occurs. There is no problem rebooting however.
I found the following solutions:
1. After you power up and get a blank, hit the reset button.
2. Don't unplug your PC. My PC is connected to a AVR and after I power down the PC I usually turn the AVR off. If i do this, than the computer will have a booting problem if I try to boot it up 30 minutes later or so. Now if I don't unplug it/power off the AVR than everything is fine.
I don't understand why it acts the way it does though.
Does anyone know of any other solutions?

Have you cleared the cmos. If you do be sure you have the power turned off don't move the cmos jumper with the power on.
I found that turning off power at power supply and unpluging, than turning on the computer the fans will spin just a little this drains all the power. Clear cmos 2-3 than return to
1-2 position.
Than plug the power back in and turn it back on, than try the computer again.

Mid 2006 iMac Boot Problem (Since latest firmware update)

I have a Mid 2006 17" iMac. Ever since the latest firmware update in early December, about every other startup I've been having boot problems. After the white screen with the Apple Logo and the spinning wheel it goes to a blue screen like normal, but instead of the 'Loading Mac OS X' white window popping up it stays blue and the spinning loading wheel starts. I've left it loading for quite a while before and nothing changes. I have to do a force shut off by holding the power button. and then I start it up and it will boot normally.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Actually, I think it'san early 2006.
