MB MSI KT6V-LSR & VGA ASUS V7100pro compatibility

Hi all,
I'm about to buy myself the MSI KT6V-LSR motherboard. In the specs it is written that the AGP slot supports 1.5 volt video cards. The problem is that my VGA card is an old one - Asus V7100 pro (geforce2 mx400, 64MB) which is a 3.3 volt card. I can't afford to get a new video card right now
Could you tell me if this combination is going to work at all?
Thanks in advance

Well, I've bought the mb and now the pc runs with no problems at all, no compatibility issues. The VGA driver is the standard Forceware 61.67 (not very sure about the version).
Great mobo btw - easy to install, well designed, lots of features
I didn't like the Core Cell software, in the left it displays only the FSB, for the others N/A is shown. When I increase the FSB in this program the system hangs (winXP). If I do the same in BIOS, it works ok... I think I'll uninstall the program.
The CPU in an old Duron Spitfire 600 MHz (6*100FSB), which used to go upto 850MHz by changing the multiplier (changing the FSB did't work) on the old motherboard. With this mobo it does 133MHz FSB with no problems - now running at 6*133.

HD Samsung SP2504C SATA II vs MSI KT6V-LSR: How to install?

Hi everybody,
Ok, i will try to explain the problem with my bad english, so please dont laugh!
I have two modeboards, the MSI KT6V-LSR and ASUS A8N-SLI SE, recently i acquired the HD Samsung SP2504C SATA II for the ASUS, and it works perfectly. So i needed to install this HD SATA II in the KT6V-LSR and i followed some proceedings first:
*The HD already had the XP SP2 installed using the ASUS one
1_i placed the jumper and the HD changed to 150
2_i pluged the data cable in the right conector and the power cable (i tryed in both channels, but only in one the hd is reconized)
3_removed the ide pata 40gb (samsung too)
4_Enabled ide sata in bios
5_configured to boot using hd sata
The system rebooted always just after the bios scrreenies. Strange, the HD PATA worked, came from the asus too! So i decided to format this HD sata. Like always i followed this steps:
* My XP cd dont have service packs and boot system
1_i used a floppy with WINME boot + smartdrive
2_delete partition, create and set active
*3_format c:
4_f:cd i386
5_f:i386\winnt
*Other strange thing, the formatting time just take a few seconds unlike the several minutes that normaly takes.
I started to install the XP anyway, and after the copy of files from cd to hd, during the first boot appears a blue screen, and the messages are relationed to the new HD, so the installation stop. I tryed several times but the same thing happened.
The HD sata is reconized in the windows, shows patitions, i transfered 13gb from it to the hd PATA, but i had to boot using the PATA one. I want to use this HD SATA like master, bootable, not like slave.
How to install it, how to format it properly?
I hope that my confusing explainations are sufficient to you understand the problem.
Some help please!
And thank you very much

HD 250GB SATA II (that dont works in this motherboard!)

This being really difficult to explain the problem with my so bad English. I go to try to use a translator online, ok?
I use the floppy of boot of the WIN ME, is through it that I obtain to define the partitions, to format hd, and to install the XP. I always made this and always it functioned, also with this HD SATA II samsung 250GB, but only using motherboard ASUS A8N-SLI IF. But when I go to make these procedures using the KT6V-LSR, I do not obtain to format hd right and I do not obtain to install the XP. Then the problem happens before installing the XP, during the formatting. So i want to use only de hd sata, not the HD PATA.
Another thing, I read in one fórum of my country that the KTV6-LSR can damage and even though to “kill” the hd sata. This is really?

Radeon 9200 graphic card on MSI KT6V-LSR mainboard crashing

My problem is as follows: I'm running my KT600 mainboard (MSI KT6V-LSR) with a Radeon 7000 graphic card without any problems at all. However, when trying to upgrade to Radeon 9200, the machine crashes right after login in Windows XP and I actually have to remove the mainboard battery to be able to start it again. I'm using the latest Catalyst drivers (5.11). It works fine in safe mode and in vga mode. Any obvious solution on this anyone?

Quote from: Dr Stu on 14-November-05, 04:30:20
sounds a bit extreme. does your system have a reset button?
No, just a power button. However, no response on it after a crash like this.
Quote from: Dr Stu on 14-November-05, 04:30:20
have you tried uninstalling the Catalyst drivers in Safe Mode and then rebooting, then reinstall drivers once windows has loaded?
I have uninstalling/installing the drivers a couple of times yes.
Quote from: Dr Stu on 14-November-05, 04:30:20
lastly, Is your problem caused by your PSU? please provide your PSU specs in case that is the cause of your woes...
My PSU is a 350Watt powersupply. The case actually prevent me to see the brand of it, so this is all I know. BTW, the Radeon 9200 card is running perfectly fine on another mainboard I have (asus), so I guess the graphic card is fine.

MSI KT6V-LSR, (MS-7021) and WinXP after upgrade

I upgraded from K7T266 Pro 2 to MSI KT6V-LSR (VIA KT600) and Windows XP (Home edition) boot correctly, but after auto-loging they stop responding to me (I can move mouse+keyb), but the system is running (after 5 minutes screen saver starts). I see, that XP wants (P&P)to install new CPU (Athlon XP 2200+). Safe or debug mode does not help. Is it necessary to reinstal Windows ? Is there any chance to repair the system?
(When I gave there old CPU - Athlon 950, the system P&P halted on detecting CD-ROM).
Thanx for helping or giving me some link on the web.

So then this is not a fresh install of win xp on the KT6?

MSI KT6V-LSR (MS-7021) Can't Boot From CD/DVD

New to the forum and would like to say hello to everyone first.
Here's my problem i can't boot from my DVD drive, my 2 HDD's and 2 DVD drives are working fine inside windows.
Inside the bios screen they are detected in the right order, and are in the right boot order. I checked the jumpers on them and they seem fine and i haven't touch them since i changed my dvd rewriter 6 months ago and i have booted from a cd since then.
I just booted up the Windows Xp disc on a differnt pc and it worked fine, yet on mine it goes straight to my XP OS.
I was hoping someone could help me out, thanks.

Did you install Nero 9 by any chance?
Even if you didn't, and old version of InCD can cause this too.
The problem is upper/lower filters, they are screwed and thus your CD's are missing in action.
Run this tool inside windows: ftp://ftp6.nero.com/tools/General-CleanTool.zip
As for booting, change the boot order in the BIOS, probably set to harddisk first.
If that doesn't solve it, disconnect one of the CD's and test with a single one, maybe one is broken and hinders the other, but that is my last guess.

2 MSI KT6V-LSR mobo fried!!

Hello,
I've recently had to replace my mobo. So I bought a new one (KT6V-LSR). Unfortunately when it doesn't seem to like my graphics, the power bus to the agp slot on the mobo gets fried. Having replaced it with the same model, the same thing happened again.
My graphics is an a-tek ((ati RV-100) radeon ve 7000 64MB dual display) is still working fine on my old PII system and was working fine on my previous mobo (K7N2 Delta-ILSR).
One of my lecturer has suggested that there might be a communication problem between the bios and the graphics card. While the setting for the agp voltage was on auto, it might have set to a higher voltage.
With persistence i replaced again, but this time with K7N2 Delta2-LSR. Up to now I haven't tried yet my radeon yet in case this happens again. The reseller would definitely not believe me.
My question is whether anybody has had this problem before?
I'm just trying to understand exactly what went wrong. Replies so far from ATI & MSI have very disappointing, they don't seem to read the questions you ask them.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

What happened to the very first mobo, you had to replace?
It is unnecessary to say power must be turned off before insertion, so I wont say anything.
How did you discover it was the AGP bus that was gone?
Hi, my first mobo (K7N2 Delta-ILSR) i had to replace for a different reason, i was doing some cpu testing for a friend, and when i removed his cpu, i had put too much pressure on the mobo to remove the (cheap) fan clip. So that was actually my fault.
Yes, i had the power off before insertion (KT6V-LSR).
I discovered it almost instantly after power on. with a smell of burnt and obviously a blank screen!
After close inspection I could actually see that the power bus to the agp slot was burnt. (sorry I'm not sure whether burnt is the correct word, my lecturer used another term but i don't remember.
Did you have any suggestion as to what have happened?
Thanks

MSI KT6V-LSR USB problems

The on-board USB ports on my MOBO are doing nothing. I've tried multiple devices from mice to cameras to printers and I get nothing from them. All the drivers are installed and up-to-date. I've tried to get an RMA for this but so far I've had no luck. Any ideas?

Have you insured they are enabled in BIOS?
Just the ports made on the board, or have you hooked up to the USB headers as well? If you have hooked up to the USB headers on the board, for front USB ports, make sure the connections are all correct, and only use 8 wires per header. If the front USB cables have 9 wires, it can cause this type of error.

What 7600 GS work stable with KT6V-LSR ?

Hello,
I want to know if 7600GS AGP videocard works fine with MSI KT6V-LSR mobo ?
Thanks ...
It's for an upgrade and to replace my : Leadtek WinFast A250 ULTRA TD (GeForce4 Ti 4600) - MyVivo
I think 7600GS nvidia series is better than my actual leadtek videocard and better than x1650 ati series ...
Am i wrong with that ?

...
Finally I have order a MSI NX7600GS-TD256 AGP, MSI product link :
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/vga/vga/pro_vga_detail.php?UID=754
I hope my pc config is going to work stable with ...
But why MSI says that system requirements need "AMD K8 (and above)..." whereas all
other 7600GS AGP builder work with min AMD K7 ! "... or compatible with AGP slot"
... i have AGP 8x with my KT6V-LSR ... so I don't understand why MSI mix CPU min
requirement info with "or" AGP slot requirement info in the same sentence ?
HOWEVER I found in MSI Global website (http://www.msi.com.tw/) this documentation
for NX7600GS TD series :
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/manual/mnu/spt_mnu_detail.php?UID=754&kind=2
... In this documentation we can read this system requirements :
To install the VGA card, your computer system needs to meet the following requirements:
Intel Pentium III (and above), AMD K7 (and above), or compatible with expansion slot
Minimum 128MB of system memory
Installation software requires CD-ROM drive
Interactive Program guide requires Internet connection for listing updates
Power supply of 400 (and up) watt is highly recommended for system stability.
My actual config :
Mobo KT6V-LSR (AGP 8X slot)
420W THERMALTAKE power supply
and ATHLON AMD K7 XP 2200+
... should work with NX7600GS ...

KT6V LSR (MS 7021) SATA controller card second opinion, please

I want to thank Fredrik Asenius for his reply to my previous post.
However, due to the fact that the purchase of a SATA controller card and two SATA2 hard disks will be handled, of necessity, at a distance of 800 kilometers (involving courier expenses), the technician of the store has requested that I ask for a second opinion from another expert in the forum. An error, therefore, could be very costly. (No offense of any kind intended to Fredrik Asenius)
My motherboard is the MSI KT6V LSR (MS 7021) Via KT600 Northbridge and Via 8237 Southbridge chipsets.
Both SATA connections are currently taken up by two SATA hard drives (no striping, nor mirroring in use). The rest of the installation consists of IDE CDRW and DVDRW drives, as well as an MSI Nvidia NX6200AX (256 RAM) AGP video card and a Soundblaster Live Value PCI audio card. The other four PCI slots are not occupied. The system also has 1.5 gigabytes of RAM and a 520-watt PSU. I am running Windows XP SP2 Professional.
My questions are the following:
(1) Since the two SATA connectors on my motherboard are occupied, if I wish to add another SATA device I will have to install a SATA controller card. Does the SATA controller card have to be SATA 1 or can I also use a SATA 2 controller card?
IMPORTANTLY, the technician questions whether the motherboard will accept a controller card adding more SATA devices. He says that you cannot add any more SATA devices to this motherboard. Is he correct?
(2) If it is possible to add more SATA devices using a controller card, since the chipset on the motherboard is Via the SATA controller software is also from Via. Does the SATA controller card also have to be one that uses the Via SATA RAID software? (In other words, are there compatibility issues? Can all this all work together?)
Once again, thanks for the help.

I have had a fair amount of experience with this kind of issue.
1. No, the add in card does not need to be SATA I, it can be SATA II. I recommend a SATA II card and SATA II drives. Putting SATA II drives on a SATA I controller can fail to work.
2. Is he wrong? Essentially, yes he is wrong. It depends on how literally you take his words. You can NOT add more SATA drives to the motherboard. You CAN add an add-in SATA card and then put the additional SATA drives on that new add-in card. The difference in wording the answer is critical.
You ask about the Via chipset on the motherboard and also on the add-in card. Actually, it is probably LESS likely that the add-in card will work if the chipsets are the same. The issue is the computer being able to differentiate between the two controllers. I had this very problem with a machine.
That computer had two add-in cards. Each was the same brand. The computer could not differentiate between the two cards and gave a hardware error. I replaced one of the cards with another brand and it works fine. The manufacturer suggested trying the cards in different PCI slots. I did not try that, I just got a new card because it was easier for me.
The add-in card does NOT need to support RAID, that is optional. If you do not want to use RAID, the card does not have to support it. If you do want to use RAID, obviously the card does need to support it. RAID is part hardware and part software so if the card supports it and you do not to set it up as RAID, that is fine.
One caution...If the add-in card has an external port that you want to use, be aware that there is something called e-SATA that might use an incompatable type of port connecter. I had a card with that connecter and I found that the cables are extremely expensive and also hard to find. Most external SATA connectors are the SATA I style that you are used to though.

I can't install Windows 98 on a KT6V-LSR

I used to be able to dual boot Win98 and 2K from different partitions on a single 80Gb hard drive. Needed the Win98 only because my old Matrox capture card has no drivers for the newer OS’s. When I changed my mobo to an MSI KT6V-LSR (Via KT600) I couldn’t get the Win98 partition to work (I didn’t have to wipe it through 2 earlier mobo changes. I guess it couldn’t stand the 3rd)
The previous setup was like this, all on a 1-1/2 year old 80gb Maxtor:
Primary partition, 753 mb, FAT32, Windows 98
1st logical partition, 11gb, NTFS, Windows 2K Pro
2nd logical partition, 25gb, FAT32, for video files
3rd logical partition, 40gb, FAT32, for all my data, downloads, etc
I could get the standard Windows OS selection page upon boot. This time whenever I try to install Windows 98 I get the above “serious error” message right after the partition check by scandisk. It's not the installer's fault, it's been with me for a long time. Worked flawlessly before.
I am able to install Win2K on NTFS or FAT32. It is only when I try to install Win98 that I get slammed with this error. I can’t use my capture card and that’s where I earn a little.
The drive passes both the Maxtor diagnostic software (full system scan) and the Seatools generic test (full system scan).
There are no viruses detected (my software may be faulty, though).
PartitionMagic 7 fails to create the small partition I need for Win98, saying “cannot create partition, anti-virus software may be running” But I have disabled any virus settings in BIOS and I am using PartitionMagic from the boot diskettes.
Really stumped here. Can’t afford to buy a new drive right now just so to transfer my files and wipe the current drive.
In summary, the drive allows me to install Win2K on either NTFS or FAT32. But it will not allow me to install Win 98, whether on a Primary partition or the first logical partition (i.e. after Win2K has already been installed)
I have since been able to install Win98. But I had to connect the Drive to a Promise Ultra66 IDE controller.
Question is, is the new hardware really incompatible with the old OS?
THEN... On two consecutive nights, my registry in Windows 2000 got corrupted (hive corruption). And I have had to reformat and reinstall both times. I am worried now that the mobo I got may have serious faults.
Hope you can give me quick feedback on this.

Hello,
You should be able to use windows 98 with this motherboard.
Can you try this.
Format the drive with only 1 partition (80GB FAT32)
Use maxblast to do this.
Remove the Ultra ATA66 PCI controller.
Remove the sound card.
Plug the hard drive in IDE cable 1 (set it to master too)
Plug your CD drive to IDE cable 2, set it to master.
Reset your CMOS
Now when you power up, enter the BIOS
go to Frequency/voltage control
Set the CPU to 166Mhz FSB (it should be running at 1.667Ghz)
CPU Ratio = Auto
go to advanced chipset configuration >DRAM settings
Set the memory to 333Mhz(166Mhz)
Go to Standard CMOS setup.
Press on your Hard drive
Set the mode to LBA
Also change your boot order to
Floppy
CD ROM
Your hard drive
Go to integrated peripherals
Disable the onboard sound
Now save and exit.
Boot from the windows 98 CD
See what happens.

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).
