Mega 865 Lcd Died

Hi I understand that there are some other threads with the same issue, but I would like to post this thread with a clear subject title.
Here is the problem...
The LCD died after a day of usage. It turns out that the display was frozen, so I turn off the pc and turned off the mains. I then turn on the mains to expect a flashing clock on the front LCD. but nothing. It is black.
The Hi-fi seems to work but using it without the panel is pointless.
So now the system still works, but no front LCD.
There was a firmware patch for the 180 LCD panel that apparently fixes the problem. Is there one for the 865?

Ok it has been several days, there are other users with the same problem. I have contacted MSIs customer support, however it seems they have a long turn around time on their replies.
If the units are defective MSI should say something about it, so far from what I have read, there are no official announcements for the MEGA 865 LCD problems.

  • Mega 865 LCD used to work

    The LCD used to work then it just stopped.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled PCAlert 4.0.  Isn't that what controls it?  What else can I try?

    the only thing that works is to swith off the pc for say 1-2 minutes (unplug power) and switch it on.
    I have also experimented with this and found that if you unplug power and plug it in straight away, sometimes it rectifies itself also. Try several times and if no go let it have a rest (nap) aned try again later.
    good luck

  • MEGA 865 - no LCD display

    My LCD display has suddenly stopoped working after a few days. It worked when I first plugged it in fine. Have tried the unplugging for 2 minutes trick, but it did not solve it. What do I try next? Can someone please help?
    Pete

    I've had this problem many times and I want to share the tip on how to make your LCD work again. Pull it out and plug it back in but slowly. What I mean is when you plug the power cord in, the connector on the cord just barely touch the connector on your Mega 865 and you will  see the Hifi LED lights up. If it doesn't work, do it again by moving it around. Suddenly you will see your LCD back on again

  • Things to know before (and after) building a Mega 865

    As I am seeing a lot of the same questions regarding the Mega 865 I created this document,
    29-Oct-2004 Added Northwood benefits
    29-Oct-2004 Emphasized NOT to use live update for bios update
    Processors in general
    Start with the processor, I would say get something around 3 gighz (give or take) which is quite affordeble. If you are going for a prescott, make sure you upgrade your bios to 1.3 (see below).It will run a bit hot (understatement) otherwise.
    If going for northwood any version is ok I believe. When I chose mine I let $$$ descide, and the prescott was on sale. (If I would buy a CPU for the Mega again, I would most likely go for a Northwood this time). Before buying your processor make sure your processor is supported, you can find the supported processors here;
    http://cweb.msi.com.tw/program/products/slim_pc/slm/pro_slm_cpu_support_detail.php?UID=547&kind=4
    Harddisk
    As for Harddisk, I would suggest anything goes but take a serial ata since that is becoming the new standard nowadays.
    When buying a HD larger than 130 Gig, make sure you install from a Windows XP SP1 CD (or higher) or divide your HD in smaller pieces. Otherwise you will not get a bigger partition than 130 Gigs.
    DVD/CDROM
    As for DVD/CD player, there is a special thread (see below) where everyone states if their DVD/CD player is working with the mega (there are some issues with some drives in HiFi mode, EVEN if they are MSI)
    Mega PC barebones optical drive compatibility list
    Memory
    As for memory, get at least 512 Mb or 1024 Mb if you want to sit cosy. two sticks of DDR400 (a.k.a 3200) will do. Get a a-brand like Kingston, Samsung or look around on the forums what will work.
    Installing Windows XP
    Before installing Windows disable your USB devices, if you fail to do this you run the chance of not installing Windows XP on your C: drive (harddisk) and this will cause you trouble later on. After installation is complete you may enable them again.
    Prescott processors & full size AGP cards
    As for the GPU (Graphics card), this depends on what you are going to do with it. If you wanna try out at showshifting, and viewing get one with integrated TV tuner. Or use the on-board (some people are quite happy with it) and add a separate PCI tv tuner. If you wanna do hefty gaming (Doom3, Far Cry ... etc) you may want to get an better one. I'm quite happy with my Radeon 9800.
    Please note; According to MSI, Prescott processors in combination with full-size AGP (add-in) cards are not supported. This is most likely a power issue since the full-size cards use a lot of power to run. Some forum members, stuborn as they are, are running with a full-size card.
    Also note that you are installing a full-size card on your own risk in combination with a Prescott processor.
    To calculate your estimated power supply take a look here;
    http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/
    The following graphics cards seem to be working (please add to this thread if you have tested a full-size card with a Prescott processor so I can add it to this document)
    Club3D Radeon AIW 9800 PRO
    ATI Radeon ALL-IN-WONDER 9600 XT
    ATI Radeon 9800 SE
    AOPEN Aeolus 5900XT 128 Mb
    Wise words from Stu:
    If you do not want to take chances, go with a Northwood processor. Apperantly there is little perfomance difference between a Northwood and a Prescott processor, and the Northwood runs slightly cooler too.
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 & Bios Update
    When installing Windows XP with SP2 make sure you have the latest Bios version loaded (1.3) or install a Microsoft work-around fix. SP2 will not install without it, and you will have a hard time getting your system to work.
    The Microsoft work-around fix can be found here;
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;885626
    The latest bios version can be downloaded here;
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=547&kind=4
    To install the latest bios, I would advise against using live-update. Use one of the following options instead;
    1) Burn a bootable CD-Rom also containing the bios and flash software, (note some of the original Win98 CD's are bootable to MS-DOS prompt)
    2) Create a bootable USB-memory key
    --- Download the HP util to create one
    --- http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/hpcpqdt/us/download/20306.html
    --- Then create a bootable floppy on an other system or download from
    --- http://www.allbootdisks.com/
    --- (I used the Win98SE No ramdrive )
    --- Then use the HP tool (on an system with an floppy drive) and enter a: as the source for booting,
    --- and use the above created floppy.
    --- Then copy the rest of the files from the a:\ drive (like autoexec.bat, config.sys etc) to the memory key.
    --- ... and ... voila one bootable USB
    --- make sure in the bios that the boot order of the USB key is before the Harddisk and your set to go.
    3) Attach a floppy drive to the Mega 865
    Bios update failure
    Some people still manage to goof-up their bios, by doing the bios update from windows (winflash, live-update). I think there is only one road to travel when this happens, you have to attach a floppy drive to your mega. Then follow the following instructions (Award bios)
    http://www.msi.com.tw/html/support/bios/note/boot.htm
    Good luck !
    PC-Alert
    Do not use the PC-Alert version from the MSI website as this does not work together with your Mega 865, instead only use the one on the CD-Rom that was supplied. In general even the supplied PC-Alert has caused a lot of grief (Taking up resources, reboot problems ... etc). If you choose to install PC-Alert, at least remove it from your start-up folder where it is installed. You can always start it manually from the MSI menu in your Start menu.
    A good alternative to Pc-Alert is Speedfan, this program should be able to spot your 2 temeperature sensored CPU fans. You can then connect these fans to the CPU temperature sensor and be able to tweak the RPM's according to your need. Speedfan 4.17 can be found here;
    http://www.almico.com/speedfan417.exe
    Temperatures
    As these tiny PC's have very little space, it is quite normal for them to run a bit hot. Do not be alarmed to see CPU temperatures around 60-65 degrees when running on load (depending on your processor of course).
    Wireless Network adapter
    As for wireless internet, the mega865 has a built-in mini-pci nic (network card). which supports only the 11 Mbps data rate. I think you have to try it out and see how it goes, you can always upgrade to 54 Mbps. I would suggest to get a 54Mbps access point, so you can always upgrade if needed (54Mbps will also work with 11 Mbps) Some forum members have succesfully replaced their Wireless Network adapters with a 54Mbps one. The following network adapters seem to be working;(please add to this thread if you have tested a wireless 54Mbps network adapter so I will add it to this document)
    Intel PRO/Wireless BG Network Adapter
    6 Channel sound
    I recently bought a 5.1 set from Soundblaster. You can connect the 3 connectors to the back of your Mega, then in the Sound util set it up for 5.1 surround sound and you are ready to go. Definately worth it !
    Reboot problems
    When you run into problems when the Mega reboots suddenly, watch out for a couple of things.
    Always check your event/log viewer. It is in your configuration management, but the easiest way to start it is to enter the following in your Run or Command line entry
    eventvwr /s
    Check if you see red-dots in your application section or system section. Google the problems before dropping them on the forum ! (As most problems are not Mega related IMHO)
    One problem I had was caused by BITS 1.5, I had to upgrade to BITS 2.0. (I think it was recently released by Microsoft-Update but I mention it anyway). Bits 1.5 caused my Mega to reboot.
    LCD Display / Sound problems
    If you have any problems where your front LCD display is not working or your on-board sound is 'missing' first try unplugging your mega from the power outlet (so completely powering down) for 2 minutes. If you still have problems, drop them on this forum.
    LCD API ?
    Alas, no external programs are available to 'drive' your LCD display. Nor will MSI release an API/Blue print on how to control it.
    If you find anything missing here or have additional tips, please add them to this thread and I will update this document.
    Good luck with your Mega !

    rkoppen i salute you  
    a truly glorious summing up of the main points asked about the Mega 865 in particular, although many points will invariably refer also to the other Mega series
    if i can add my tuppence worth, anyone considering going for a powerful graphics card can always shy away from the prescott
    i was reading an article just when the prescott core cpus came out and the review basically said that there wasn't really much performance wise between the new prescott and the older Northwood cores.
    obviously newer prescotts have higher clock speeds now (3.2? 3.4??), but surely a 2.8ghz CPU is still going to be powerful enough to play the latest games!! (in conjunction with a top graphics card obviously)
    is the extra temp increase surely worth the extra couple of hundred mhz?

  • Anyone want a Mega 865?

    I've got a Mega 865 that has (again) died.  Can't remember the actual CPU in the machine and have been too fed up with it to remove it to see.  I know it's some sort of P4 - I think around 1.6ghz.  MSI has consistently failed to support this product in my case, and I've been unable to get support from MSI yet again.  The original unit was DOA 2 years ago.  This unit was somewhat flaky all this time (repeatedly had to unplug and replug unit for front panel to work.  It has 512mb Corsair DDR memory in it.
    Anyone interested in buying it for pennies on the dollar with or without CPU and RAM?  I'm not going to waste any more time on it.  I want to keep the drives.  The unit doesn't have a single, solitary scratch or blemish.  I do have the original remote (though I never used it).

  • Media Center DVD 'Stutters' on MEGA 865

    Hi
    I am an IT professional, but I am a newcomer to the MEGA series PCs.  I bought a MEGA 865 Delux for a 'computer newbie' friend as payment for a favour, and I am in the process of configuring it all now.  
    Spec is
    MEGA 865 flashed to bios 1.2
    MSI DVD Player DR8-A2 BIOS 1.6
    NO TV CARD (yet)
    Win XP PRO SP2
    512MB RAM
    Celeron 2.0GHz (yes I know, but I had a new one going spare, it'll do for now)
    I have applied ALL latest drivers
    I have applied ALL latest BIOS patches
    Windows XP is fully patched up to SP2
    I am currently running in 1024x764 Truecolour 70Hz mode.
    Everything works great, my friend should be really pleased with it  ... except  
    MEDIA CENTER III !!!  
    Now that was kind of the idea of buying the MEGA PC, my friend could use it with the remote control for DVD, Radio etc etc, but when I play a DVD using the media center it 'stutters', the video and sound are interrupted and it really is unwatchable.
    Looking at the CPU resource is see that it is strained to 100% utilisation.
    If I run the same DVD Movie with PowerDVD (came with the MSI DVD Drive), or even with Windows Media Player, it plays beautifully and the CPU is comfortably down at 40% utilisation.   Unfortunately the remote seems to do nothing for PowerDVD.
    Is anybody finding that the Media Center works great on their system? (if so, what's the secret?)
    Has anybody else encountered similar problems to mine?
    Does anybody know how I could fix the problem so that when I present this great new system to my friend as an expression of my gratitude, it is not 'flawed'?
    Please help if you can, I would like to deliver the system in the next couple of days.
    Thanks
    Steve

    Thanks for the advice everyone.
    After much searching I found the elusive registry changes and applied them to my system.  Unfortunately these changes made no discernable difference to the DVD playback.
    While I appreciate that there are a number of Open Source projects in development (dependant on 'Girder', pay software that still does not appear to FULLY replace the advertised functionality of the Remote/LCD/Radio etc), and also alternative products that I could purchase, I do not feel that I should have to buy these to make my MEGA media center PC play DVDs.  
    It's not as if the inability to play DVDs is a minor issue in a Media Center.  It's fundamental!!
    If it will not work as a media center PC 'as supplied' then it seems to me that I should return it to the retailer and buy a 'Shuttle PC' for much less money.  I could spend the savings (I reckon on about £70) on a better CPU or just pocket the difference.  Features and software that do not work are of little use to anybody.
    With all due respect to you all, if everybody who bought the system and had these problems returned it to the store as 'not fit for purpose' then I suspect MSI would have resolved the issue long ago.  It seems to me that end user tolerance has resulted in MSI's indifference.
    If I have no fix by Thursday then it's back to the store.
    I have mailed MSI Tech Support, hopefully they will come up with something as the system looks great otherwise.
    Still open to suggestions that do not include 'break up the CD' or 'buy this other software'.
    Thanks
    Steve

  • Help with MEGA 865 PC

    Hi, this is my problem:
    I have a Msi Mega 865 Deluxe barebone pc , i also have a Tv tuner card for mega pc ( TV @nyware ) . I have lost the cable that connects the front panel LCD remote control to the Tv tuner card remote input.  I need to build a new cable but i don't know the correct position of the pin. I see on the front panel LCD that the first o three pin is numebered PIN1 and the last PIN3 . Also, on the Tv tuner card the pin ( of the remote control input connector ) is numbered from PIN1 to PIN3. The Pin1 on the LCD correspond on the Pin1 on the TV card ? Pin2 -> Pin2 and Pin3 -> Pin3? or the configuration is different?
    Please help me!!!
    Thancks !!

    please help me, i have a mega pc 865 and i lost the cable from the front panel lcd to tv pci card , i also have lost the adapter of the tv tuner card. If you hava mega pc 865 with tv tuner card post the correct pin configuration , i don't know if the front  pin1 correspond to the tv tuner card pin 1 and so... . I post a jpg to explain my problem.

    Mega 865 - HiFi Button problems.
    Hi,

    the LCD display working again, but now my HiFi button doesn't work
    has anyone experienced this before ??
    The radio/lcd display works fine in media centre

  • MEGA 865 Deluxe with MSI DR8-A 8x8 DVD±R/±RW Writer

    Hi everyone,
    I am just about to put this box together, please advice..
    Heard any compatibility issue on this one? IE, ejecting problems or loosing functionality in PC or HIFI mode? or any issues at all....
    MEGA 865 Deluxe with MSI DR8-A 8x8 DVD±R/±RW Writer
    It will be a bummer if I go put this together and it doesnt work properly. That will be money down the tube.
    Thanx.

    I have the same box and optical device. I have yet to get an audio CD to play completely through in HiFi mode. It will play for 3 to five minutes and then quits, LCD reads No Disk. I can get it to start up again with no problems but it only plays a few minutes at a time.  It works fine in PC mode both in playing Audio CD's and DVDs so I am guessing that my problem lies in Hi Fi circuitry/or wires. I believe you should be able to use the 865 in Hi Fi mode without O/S, Memory, or even a CPU. Good luck.

  • Mega 865 Issues

    I'm having a couple of issues with the Mega 865-based PC that I just built and I'm hoping some people here can answer a couple of my questions. If interested, system specs are at the bottom.
    1. I can not get MSI's Media Center III to run in any stable form. Typically after I install it and reboot I will try to start the program and it will crash before anything is even displayed on the screen. Furthermore, this freezes the display on the front of the computer itself and the only way I've found to reset this is to shut the computer down and unplug it for a little while. This will happen regardless of how many times I re-install the program.
    2. When I start the computer after having not used it for a while it will make it as far as loading the user login screen in Windows XP and then restart. After trying to start it normally or in safe mode enough times it will finally load Windows propperly and continue to work well. I can even shut it off, unplug it, and turn it back on without any problems. This only happens if it's been sitting off for an extended period of time. (several hours)
    Other than these two issues the system has worked flawlessly for me. Hi-Fi mode works well and once it starts the system is stable under load dispite fairly hight CPU temperatures. If anyone has any ideas on how I might be able to get around these problems please let me know and thanks in advance.

    Had the same issue with mine when I started. The crash of the MMCIII is due to some writing issue of the program to the LCD screen and once the screen is upset then you need to unplug the PC to clear it. I started getting these issues after I used live update from the web, I think I downloaded a bad version of PCalert. Anyway in the long run I formated and only used the versions on the CD and it all worked fine. Oh and if your wondering about the performance of MMCIII, it doesn't get better.  

  • MEGA 865 Big Display problem

    Hi,
    i get my new MEGA 865 last Week, but i have a big Problem with it, every time i unplug and plug the Power Cable, the Display on the front is off.
    The only way to bring the Display back to live is to unplug and plug the Display Cable inside the Barebone from the mainboard. This cant be right, does everyone have the same Problem ??????
    Please write, if you have the same problem or not.
    Thanks
    Cooler  

    The information came from MSI Tech support.
    I also cannot believe that they sell a Multimedia PC with the MSI Media Suite package that just doesn't work. Any updates? No. Nothing. The MSI Media Suite is meant to be one of the reasons for it costing more than the other MEGA's.
    Generally as a rule, I hardly ever install anything from the manufacturers CD supplied with a system. Half the time they are just rubbish apps/utils that I hardly use. I don't really care what speed my Processor/FSB is running at - it's running and it is not below its spec, that's fine by me. My first stop is always the web site for the most current drivers and utils that are necessary.
    Obviously PC Alert4 is proving the exception here. It seems to me (I have no confirmation) that PC Alert as supplied on the CD, has API's / DLL's added to take care of the LCD display, and these have not been checked/thought of in a subsequent "standard" version.
    I am also interested in seeing how I could control / program the LCD display. I seem to remember someone saying that WinXP Media Center can also change the LCD Display, this hints at either a special driver or an API in XP to get to its settings. I'll try dig a little deeper when I have a spare moment unless anyone already knows the answer.

    seems that the card reader wouldn't read SD cards, but was ok with MMC. i have replaced her combo drive with another Mitsumi one, and now both SD and MMC cards work fine. gonna try the faulty combo drive in my computer later, but i suspect it is a faulty card reader
    EDIT: looks like i jumped the gun a bit - mum says the new drive is now doing the same thing  trying her old one in this computer and so far all looks ok.
    BTW her XC Cube is the EY65, which - like the Mega 865 - uses the Intel 865g chipset
    does anyone have any suggestions for us? it cannot be a conflict between the OEI-USB card reader devices and the intel 865g chipset, otherwise every mega user would have seen this....

  • SATA Hard Drive no longer recognized by Mega 865

    I recently put together an MSI Mega 865 barebone system with the following specifications:  
    Processor: Intel 3.2c Ghz (Northwood core)
    Hard Drive:  Western Digital SATA 10kRPM Raptor
    Memory: 1 GB (2 x 512MB) Kingston 3200 (400Mhz)
    DVD Player: Plextor 8X DVD RW
    Video Card:  HIS Excalibure 9800Pro 128 MB
    OS:  WinXP
    Finally got everything up and running, and then I went to boot up, and the system can no longer find the SATA harddrive.  In fact, it's not even an option in the BIOS now.  
    My question is the following:  
    Would the SATA be available all of the time, or only if a SATA enabled harddrive was recognized?
    When the system is first powered on by plugging the power cord into the wall, the hard drive makes a small amount of noise, as if it's spinning a bit.  When the computer starts up, there is no noise at all, although the hard drive does get warm (which makes me think there is power to the unit).  
    I tried the 2nd power supply (old IDE) for the hard drive, but that provided that same results as the SATA power supply.
    There were some inconsistencies with my mega 865 prior to this.  First, the HIFI would randomly lock up, and the only way to get it back was to unplug the computer from the wall.  2nd, it had lost communication on the serial port (why, I don't know).  3rd, and final, it doesn't seem to recognize my hard drive (or my hard drive is ruined).
    Can someone help me out here, I'm not sure whether to return my HardDrive, my MSI Mega 865, or both.

    The system worked for 4 days or so.  One day, I started it up, and it couldn't boot because it couldn't detect the SATA drive.  When this happened I decided to flash it to the the latest BIOS, but even this did not help.
    The unit had problems before, it would lock up on initial power up, the HIFI/CD/DVD would not respond (when the computer was not on of course).  I would have to plug and unplug the unit 3 or 4 times before it would power on and not lock up.
    I contacted MSI support, and explained my problems.  They told me to return the unit to the reseller.  I'm not sure if the problem was the unit, the hard drive, or both, so I went ahead and returned the HD and the MSI unit.  It'll be another 2 weeks or so now before I get my computer up and running.  :(

  • MSI Mega 865 DVDRW Drive

    Hello. Can you please tell me which DVD writer I need to buy for my MSI Mega 865. I want to add a DVD writer behind the panel and my third party Sony doesnt open the front panel. Do the MSI drives work OK. Thanks.

    Hi williac10,
    Though you are right in asking for a better alternate optical drive here but I think it'll be better if you ask the Mega PCs users in our Mega PCs, SFF PCs Forum .
