Mainboard issue. (K9N Neo)
Hi everyone.
Problem is that my PC completely freeze (After 1 sec in Bootscreen or even BIOS) or after 1 hour. I then have to press on\off button. Sometimes I have to do it many times to even boot. In log it says:
IRQARB: ACPI BIOS does not contain an IRQ for the device in PCI slot 11, function 0.
IRQARB: ACPI BIOS does not contain an IRQ for the device in PCI slot 12, function 0.
IRQARB: ACPI BIOS does not contain an IRQ for the device in PCI slot 13, function 0.
IRQARB: ACPI BIOS does not contain an IRQ for the device in PCI slot 14, function 0.
IRQARB: ACPI BIOS does not contain an IRQ for the device in PCI slot 15, function 0.
I have a MSI K9N Neo Mainboard. PS: Where is the BIOS update for my K9N? In the MB page I only see the LiveUpdate thing, and my Windows is not stable so I wont update from there.... The direct file anyone?
I've tried to reformate and reinstall, but no help. It's HW related. Any ideas?

PSU:
NorthQ 4775-400BULK, ATX 400W, 120mm
, 12-17dBA, 2xSATA, PCI-E, 20/24pin
All temps are good. Nothing is overheating. (As far as I can see)
The Windows MemTest did not find any errors. I've also tried to change brand\sticks\slots. Nothing helps. I've also tried to UN-plug the CD-ROM and tried to change Harddrive. Also the graphic-card. Must be my MSI card... Any other ideas? What does the error message say to you? It's crappy... In the end I will give two choices:
- Dump the MSI card in the trash
- Try to update the BIOS
Even if I fail I don't care, because it's (For me) already broken. I can't use my PC anyway.

Hello, and thanks in advance for taking the time to give this a look. (TL;DR below)
As stated in the topic title, I’ve been having issues with my PC involving POST beep codes.
Couple days ago, PC stopped displaying on monitor. A few on/off’s later, I realized the PC was beeping oddly. I looked up POST codes online, but I’m not entirely sure which set to use. I have no display to check for my motherboard BIOS and version, so I am at the moment using what is written on the actual mobo; AMI BIOS. I can hear a single beep, followed by about 8 shorter beeps. There is a noticeable difference between the first and the rest. I have already run the computer without the optical drive, harddrive, and graphics card and still found the same problem. With just the mobo and CPU, I hear nothing, but that’s because I assume my mobo will not POST without RAM, so I tried a single stick new replacement to test with and I am still getting the same POST beeps as before. I have also tried reseating my graphics card and the small round cell found on my mobo. Is there anything that I’ve missed? Or is there something else at the root of the problem.
TL;DR: My computer will not display on a monitor, and I am getting the beeps associated with POST problems. Have tried running without essential hardware and separate memory stick to no success. Unsure of how to proceed.
Here are my current specs:
MSI K9N NEO V3 / MS-7369
AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+ Windsor @ 2.6 GHz
OCZ Gold XTC Dual Channel PC26400 DDR2 800MHz 1GB x2 (5-5-5-12)
XFX 8600 GT XXX Edition 256 MB DDR3 PCI-E
WD Caviar Blue 160GB 7200RPM 8MB SATA (WD1600AAJS)
Apevia X-Infinity Case with Turbolink PSU (420W)
Windows XP (32bit) SP3
I’ve narrowed down my problem to either the mobo or the cpu, but that’s about it.
I appreciate your help, and if there’s something that needs to be clarified, just let me know.
I apologize if this is in the wrong section or if there’s a format problem with my post.I figure this is the best place to ask, since its related to my issues and doesn't need another topic.
I'm looking at this Corsair 750W PSU, but the only thing I'm wondering about is lack of a P4 MB connector. I'm not entirely sure what it's used for? I'm pretty green when it comes to installing and hooking up PSUs, so I've been comparing the connectors just to make sure I don't buy a product that won't hook up to my system. Also, is there a default size? Like motherboards come with the ATX or micro-ATX form. I'd hate to buy it and find out that it won't fit in my case
First choice
Second choice
Third choice
I noticed a lot of the PSU have multiple 18A / 12 V rails as opposed to a single 12V rail with higher amps. Are those maximum values? Or will it increase as you decrease the number of 12V rails being used. Sorry for the questions, but I figure I might as well ask now while I can -
K9N Neo V3 and SATA DVD-RW, need help
Hi all!
I've got a K9N Neo V3 mainboard and a Pioneer DVR-215BK DVD-RW (which is a Serial ATA drive). The problem is, when attempting to read any disc (CD or DVD), the drive recognizes it OK - but then hangs the very moment data transfer begins, then after 3-4 attempts (i.e. read-hang-read-hang etc) starts reading, but transfer mode is set to PIO by the OS (I have Windows XP SP2 installed). I can change it back to UDMA 4, but when I load a disc the whole story repeats :( . Reading speed in this mode is not too impressive, of course.
I have upgraded mainboard's BIOS and the writer's firmware to the latest versions; tried NVidia IDE SW drivers; checked the RAM for errors; connected the writer to different SATA ports with different cables; changed RAID mode in BIOS setup - and, of course, surfed the web searching for the solution - and now I'm here... Seems like few people had quite the same problem, but I've tried what they were proposing (even disabling error control for the corresponding IDE channel in Windows registry) - with no result at all.
Here's what I have inside my PC case:
MB and DVD-RW - you already know; RAM: KingMax 2*1024 Mb 800 MHz; HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 (SATA); Graphics: NVidia 8800 GS; Sound: Creative X-Fi Xtreme Audio; PSU: Delta 500W.
Note: SATA HDD works fine in UDMA 6 mode, without any errors. Any other piece of hardware I have also operates fine...
Hope anyone can tell me what causes this issue and what I can do about it. Is it my DVD-RW or motherboard that's faulty, or some compatibility issue, or I'm just stupid ? Thanks in advance.Quote from: Nestemat on 28-March-08, 05:11:31
The burner is not the issue , the issue is the motherboard or some simple bios settings or the bios itself .I have a K9n Neo v2 mcp 520 and it has the same problem dvd-rw under pio , i think the problem is caused by the drivers , because they just won't install
Well, that's at least something! Means I'm not alone.
Yesterday I cleaned up whatever was remaining that could have caused the issue: removed everything but vital components; uninstalled all programs that might use additional drivers (like Nero, WinCinema and such); had the RAM checked again by MemTest86+ 2.01. Well, nothing changed, of course.
Tomorrow I'm taking the system to the dealer I've bought it from (that's gonna be a challenge, we got a lot of snow here ) - we'll see what the service personnel has to tell me.
I will let you know as soon as the problem is solved.
Nestemat
In your case - what's the brand and model of your DVD-RW? Have you tried downloading the latest drivers - or maybe your installation CD is bad or a buggy installer? Try installing the drivers manually. -
Sorry but i must ask abaut K9N Neo, MS-7260 VER:2.0
I have find on this link: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=manual&maincat_no=1&prod_no=255 some info but still i can't finde
just for VER:2.0 some MANUAL * BIOS * Driver * Utility * Manual * Overview. Can anybody PLS help me with finding the adequate link for my VERsion of mainboard...

It's kind of hard for us to understand you, sorry. I think you want to know if there is a known overheating issue with K9N Neo, MS-7260. Your neighbour told you so as his died because of overheating. Now you want to know whether this could be true or not.
Well there is no real issue. The passive heatsink is not very good and the northbridge gets pretty warm. That would cause trouble if there is not a good airflow inside of your case. But getting to critical temp should only happen in cases with very bad or no ventilation at all. So the K9N very unlikely dies because of overheating. Of course it could when the inside temp gets far too hot what shouldn't happen. Besides you would get instabilities long before it would die. You don't need to worry the dead of the other guy's K9N has nothing to do with a general K9N issue.
Thanx for answer.... -
K9N Neo-F and AMD Athlon X2 AM2 6000+ (125W)

I was looking for a 125watt board too and its really hard to find one from MSI that have the things I want, I cant even find a board with Nvidia chipset, amd2+ and support a 125 watt processor (or not tested OK yet) or some boards without a cpu support list yet. So no AM2+ for you if you want a 125watt processor on it and a nvidia chipset. is there any reason why MSI cant fix 125watt support?
If you dont care about a future quadcores upgrade you can buy a old AM2 board, but dont forgot to look at the cpu support list, because the most AM2 boards doesnt support 125watt either. ???

That is not true, 125W support usually have high end mainboards.

No video on new build K9N NEO V3
Hello all,
New build turns on, no beeps and of course no video. Stays running when is turned on just no video. All fans working (CPU, case, power, and video fans). Have tried detaching the mother board and tested with two video cards (one video card per test) and one stick of memory. Used a CRT monitor and a LCD monitor.
Here are the numbers:

Let me know if more info is needed. Thanks for any help.Quote from: Fredrik Åsenius on 21-March-08, 07:44:50
Don't know if it is that, but BIOS supports the 5000 BE from v. 2.3. Perhaps you can get help in making sure what BIOS version you got.
It does sound like Bas says processor related. Cause all required power cables are in place, right?
Why the rush in RMA-ing? You must be pretty good at computers to be able to say definitely when it is RMA time, and what to RMA... Or think you are pretty good.
I do computer support for a living but I will be the first to tell you that I don't know everything. I just don't know what else it could be and I guess I'm anxious to get my new rig up and running!! BF2 awaits me . . . It's comforting to hear someone with the same issue so that I don't feel like I'm going crazy here. -
K9N Neo V3 : PCI-E and PCI-E x1/PCI VGA cards at the same time ?
Hello,
I'm thinking about getting one more VGA card to resolve my dual screen issue :
Quote
I use two monitors. PC monitor as first screen, TV is extended for watching videos.
PC : Philips 220aw (22", 1680x1050 @ 60Hz) DVI-DVI
TV : LG 42lh3000 (42", 1920x1080 @ 24Hz) DVI-HDMI
I've been trying to get smooth playback on the TV for days, but random stutter happens.
When a video (mostly HD contents) is played on the TV while using the PC monitor, things like minimize/maximize windows, page scrolls stutter and so does the video. Idle while watching videos also stutters randomly.
I tried almost every combinations of renderers/codecs/players, tried by desactivating aero and all the fancy graphics, but it didn't solve the problem.
The only way i get smooth playback on the TV, is by desactivating the PC monitor. (Using nVidia panel or "Win" key+P), so only the TV is active.
I tried with a Blu-Ray using DXVA and it was smooth.
I haven't got a chance to test with a better graphic card yet. This issue doesnt happen on XP though.
Here are the specs :
K9N Neo V3
Athlon 64 x2 @ 3Ghz
4Go DDR2-800
8800 GT 512Mo (driver 197.45)
Win7 Ultimate 32 Bits.
Corsair 450W 80+
My question is : Can i add a PCI-E x1 or a PCI VGA card on this motherboard, so each screen will have its own VGA card ?
If so, both nVidia or ATI would work ?
Thank you.It would be one of these, if it is allowed by the K9N Neo V3.

I will try to test with an ATI card if i can find one. -
K9N Neo-F Freeze and restart problem. Help needed!
Hi there,
I recently bought a Mainboard (K9N Neo-F S/N: 601-7260-010K0605023133) that seems to shutdown every now and then. No blue screen... it just freezes for a while and then shuts down. My CPU temperature is very low, I've used a lot of coolingpaste and I have tried every possible way of mounting memorys... 1,2,4... and in different slots. I've run Memtest also. The BIOS-version is the newest according to the Liveupdate-function. The power supply should be enough but I have tested disconnecting everything else then one harddrive and the mobo... doesn't work.
Sometimes it happens with three hours between the occations and sometimes five minutes. Not related to anything special that is done on the computer.
Is this a problem that is common...? Related to hardware or bios...? I would be glad for any advice you could give.
Thanks in advance. Really need help... this drives me mad...
/ChristianI started Orthos and then left the computer alone. Went and watched a film, when I got back after 1 hour and 38 minutes or something like that the computer freezed. I will try leaving it on all night without touching a thing... kind of strange that it happens right when I sit down and move the mouse.
Thanks a lot for trying to help... it's appreciated.

MSI K9N Neo (AM2) memory troubles
Hi guys, I just got a new system which is having some issues, and I'd appreciate any suggestions on what could be wrong.
At first, the system simply crashed during OS boot. A quick test with memtest86 showed 50-60 thousand errors on a single run, so I asked at Corsairs site, got the recommendation to up the voltage to 2.1V. The memory got a whole lot more stable, but still showed a few dozen errors per run.
So, I proceeded to test the modules one by one, and found them operating well as long as only a single module was inserted (no errors on a 12+ hours run). I moved them around, tried different dimm slots, but as soon as both modules were in, there were errors ranging from a few to several dozen per memtest pass.
The system specs are:
MSI K9N Neo (nforce 550 based)
AMD Athlon64 3500+
Corsair Value Select 2048MB PC5300 kit (2 1GB dimms, 667 MHz)
Geforce 6600 video card.
BIOS settings are defaults (memory timing set from SPD) with memory voltage increased to 2.1 volt as per Corsairs suggestion.
Any suggestions? Is the MB shot, should I get it exchanged, or could there be some other problem?Hi Raider,
I would not run in dual channel mode until you get at least one stick to run w/o errors in Memtest86. I had a similar problem with different memory but the same MSI K9N MoBo. Sometimes it passed and sometimes it did not. My two problems were (1) power supply, only 350W, so I jumped up to a 500W, and (2) memory timings. The MSI site said the MoBo has trouble with SPD timings. So try moving the mem speed down a whole bunch, like 166Mhz or 133Mhz clocking first. If it passes all mem tests, then move the clock back up and try to look up the memory timings for your memory and type them in manually in your BIOS. For me, I went from 2.5-3-3-8 2T to 3.0 5-5-8 2T and it ran forever. From Windows I used CPU-z to see the memory SPD and timings and set it to the lower settings from CPU-z to make it work the first time. This week I am taking back the memory to the store because it won't run at spec.
Good Luck

MSI K9N Neo board- and Windows 2003 R2
Hello,
I am having some compatibility issues with running a K9N Neo board and Windows 2003 r2
--I cant get core center to run
--I cant get audio/sound to work, it is all installed except for one thing.
so then i killed by loading XP drivers that it did not like.
Does anyone have a list of the minmum drivers off my CD that i should install to get it going, or are they on the MSI site for W2k3? I could not find them.
This machine works totally fine with XP and Vista.
thanksThat is mostly correct, absolutely. But it happens that Microsoft thought-up some security measure or two that prohibits some - for example - updating procedures. Here is an example, but I doubt that is your problem. Please note the kb number, you don't have to learn Swedish.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922582/sv
Modificacion: Very few companies do I believe produce special 2003 drivers. Don't think I ever saw any MSI ones, anyway. Isn't it enough that XP and Vista works? Those are better for gaming, entertainment, VOIP and such. -

I have a similar problem with my K9N Neo V3. I originally had WinXP installed and it would either crash right at startup, crash at the XP splash screen, crash at the XP welcome screen, or crash during a game. It literally has a mind of its own. Sometimes it would crash, sometimes not.
I tried updating the drivers for the mainboard, the display driver, and I reformatted everything and reinstalled WinXP. That didn't work. Now I've reformatted everything again and installed Vista instead. Now its even worse. It crashes more frequently and this time even crashes during simple tasks like opening folders.
So, should I change the motherboard?
cpu: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 6000+ Socket AM2
video: GeForce 9600 GT 512MB/256bit/DDR3/PCI-E
memory: 2GB Geil DDR2 PC 6400 800MHz, CAS 4
Sorry thats all the info I can get about my system.>> << "Cheap Sumvision PowerX 450W Power Supply 450 Watt Switching PSU (KY2500ATX)"
Minimum +12V~26A recommended for system with that video card, the 450 watts recommended only pertains to high quality PSU and not cheapos and one should rely on amp specs anyway.
As Wonkanobby said and I agree since I have one Corsair VX450 w/+12V~33A would be a good choice. Even though the price is 3-4 times more than what you have the PSU is not something to be cheap with. -
K9N Neo Platinum: Shutdown
Having the same problem as the K9N Neo Platiunum SLI
Whenever I try to burn a DVD/CD the system completely shuts down
Network connectivity is bizaar and sketchy at best and seems to possibly
cause shutdown too (randomly).
DVD/CD drive and PSU function normally in a different box
The sticky thread says this model is unaffected by the issue affecting the SLI models
but it sounds identical to me. Has this status changed? Seeing a number of posts independent
of this site stating the same issues as well.
(note: have already RMA'ed this awaiting replacement )
Glad and disappointed I have my old box
AM2 4200
4GB (4-2x1GB Dual channel)
BFG 7800GT 256MB
Antec TPII 550w
WD 80GB SATA II
MAXTOR 250GB SATA II
WinXP SP2 (up to date as of posting)

Does your pc stabile before you flashed your Bios? It's not safe to flashed the Bios using the liveupdate as it may cause the pc unstable. tried to revert it back. Used the manual way to flashed it. GD luck. -
K9N NEO-F V3 + Vista Ultimate setup with RAID1?
Hey,
I've now tried this few times without luck:
I have tried to set my computer (K9N NEO-F V3 with 2.6 bios, 2x Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 500 GB SATA drives + one IDE channel DVD-RW drive, 4 GB of DDR2-800 memory) to work from bios in mirrored mode. This works fine, I can set up the array at bios and the array shows up at Vista 32-bit setup after providing the driver downloaded from Nvidia site (15.23 driver set).
The partitioning of mirrored setup also goes OK, and the setup of the Windows until the last part, "Finalizing installation" comes in. It seems to recognise most of hardware but suddenly it just freezes and the whole computer is halted,
and it won't proceed. Also, if I hard-boot my computer at this point, the setup cannot continue the setup even the files are at hard drive.
Any advices how to go on from h ere? The installation works fine if I drop the RAID1 off and fall back to normal SATA hard disk mode.
I have tested my memory also, (The memory modules are 4x1GB Transcend memories, working well, according to MemTest86) so they should not affect to this issue.See here:

Hi all -
I have a K9N Neo (MS-7260 v2.0) that I am trying to wire in the front panel audio from my case. I'm having some major problems trying to figure out how to match up my case wires with those on the MSI board. I'm hoping that one of you experts will have the answer.
My case has the following signals for a microphone and headphone connection:
MIC GND
MIC PWR
MIC IN
HPOUT R
HPOUT -R
HPOUT L
HPOUT -L
HPOUT GND
In other words, the mic has power, ground, signal; and the headphone has two wires for each channel (+/-) and a common ground.
Now, here is the listed pinout from the manual for JAUD1. I could only find the manual for a PCB v1.0, so if that is the issue then please help me find the right manual:
PIN SIGNAL DESCRIPTION
1 PORT 1L : Analog Port 1 - Left channel
2 GND : Ground
3 PORT 1R : Analog Port 1 - Right channel
4 PRESENCE# : Active low signal - signals BIOS that a High Definition Audio dongle is connected to the analog header. PRESENCE# = 0 when a High Definition Audio dongle is connected.
5 PORT 2R : Analog Port 2 - Right channel
6 SENSE1_RETIRN : Jack detection return from front panel JACK1
7 SENSE_SEND : Jack detection sense line from the High Definition Audio CODEC jack detection resistor network
8 KEY : Connector Key
9 PORT 2L : Analog Port 2 - Left channel
10 SENSE2_RETIRN : Jack detection return from front panel JACK2
It doesn't seem like there are enough signals to hook up a +/- for both L/R on the headphones. And where do I put the mic??
Thanks in advance for ANY insights!
DaveHello!
I dare not answer your question yet, but I know that many with this kind of question have been helped by contacting the case manufacturer's support some way.
Sure it is not life or death for your problem, but Moderators here are under death penalty not to help people who don't describe their complete system. Motherboard we know. Processor, memory, hard disks, PSU and it's max. amperes and a few other things remain unknown. -
K9N Neo-F, just over a week old and now won't boot.
Having trouble with a new build using a MSI K9N Neo-F motherboard. I suspect my Motherboard is faulty :( and plan on sending it back to Newegg for replacement unless someone has something else for me to try. Here’s the original configuration:
MSI K9N Neo-F motherboard (MS-7260 Ver 1.0 w/ 1.3 BIOS)
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ (65W – 2.4 GHz Windsor ADO4600CUBOX)
Gskill F2-6400CL4D-2GBPK (DDR2-800 4-4-4-12 @ 1.9~2.0V)
Gigabyte GV-NX76T256D-RH (GeForce 7600 GT) video card
Rosewill AP-500X (3.3V 30A, 5V 45A, 12V 22A)
NEC ND-3520A CD/DVD Burner
Seagate ST3320620AS SATA2 hard drive
For the first few days, everything appeared to work ok (though I had to leave the SATA 150 compatibility jumper on the hard drive in order for the motherboard to recognize it ). After day 3, it started locking up randomly (no blue screen) and restarting automatically, both while under high load and virtually no load at all. Past day 5, it’s now to the point where it locks up even in the BIOS, and that’s only when I can get it to POST (otherwise, all I get is fan spinning and a blank screen, not even a beep).
The first thing I tried after day 5 was replacing the PSU with a Silverstone SST-ST56F 560 W PSU I have on hand for another build (this PSU is extremely well made and heavy by the way :smiley: ). I figured this 560W monster could easily power the setup above, however the setup remained as unstable as ever. I did notice in the BIOS while looking at the voltages before it locked up that the Vcore is jumping all over the place, from 1.240V to 1.372V! I’ve built a fair share of A64 setups and never seen anything like this before. It seems to point to a failure of a power regulator on the motherboard, just hope it didn’t damage my CPU as a result.
Next suspect was the memory, which I memtested overnight on another AM2 board and passed with no errors. However, I read on a few other forums that the nVidia 550MCP chipset on the board doesn’t like RAM with a Tras under 15, so I swapped the RAM for another set of Gskill I had on hand (F2-6400CL5D-1GBNQ, DDR2-800 5-5-5-15 @ 1.8~1.9V) and reset the CMOS. Unfortunately still no luck, it won’t POST half the time and when it does, it locks up less than a minute later while still in the BIOS.
My last shot was removing the 7600GT video card and replacing it with an old Matrox Milenium PCI one I had laying around. My theory was not only to eliminate the video card from the list of suspects, but also the high power draw on the board that PCIe video cards tend to have. However, it still fails to POST half the time. Does anyone have any suggestions of things for me to try before sending back? Thanks in advance.Thanks for quick replies guys!
Bosskiller - Yes, I tested both memory kits on another AM2 motherboard (Asus M2N) for ~24 hours each and both passed with no errors. I tried setting the Vdim to 2.1 volts in the BIOS (while I was still able to get it to POST fully), but no luck. However, since it's gotten very unstable and I reset the CMOS, the Vdim is probably back at the default 1.8 volts. If I could just get it stable enough to make changes in the BIOS without it locking up, at least that would be an improvement.
BAS - As mentioned, I tried using a Silverstone 560W PSU I had on hand with no luck either, that's when I noticed the big fluctuations in Vcore. Speaking of which, are such fluctuation in the Vcore normal? I've read several contradictor forum post on the topic and don't know if this is "normal" behavior for the k9n neo-f.
Thanks again in advance.
