Best BIOS setting for MSI K8N Plat + AMD 3000+ Venice + Geil Value RAM

If you want SSE3 support and you do not overclock, Bios 1.4 is the only one officially available (1.41beta is not official).
Try to upgrade to 1.4 and see it for yourself, do the upgrade with floppy in DOS so that you can save your old Bios.
I would rather wait till mid June when a less troublesome new bios is suppose to be availabe for NEO4 MBs.

Best BIOS setting for MSI K8N Plat + AMD 3000+ Venice + Geil Value RAM

Hi all,
Which BIOS settings would you recommend for this combination:
MSI K8N Plat
3000+ Venice core
2 x 512 MB GEIL value RAM
I have NorthQ Giant UFO cooler attached to CPU. I would like to have as fast system as possible but remain on the safe side - a 100% stable system.... I know default would be safe enough but wouldn't use the potential of the CPU, I gues....

Well that depends on the installed CPU and memory, doesnt it? So I find that question kinda odd.

OMG !!!!
Something is really weird about this bios !!!!
I can't boot overclocked from bios even at 220 HT, and at the beginning i was REALY disapointed.
Then i set it to optimize defaults ( and yes i did the whole flashing thing ) and i am now IN WINDOWS with my cheapo Kingston Value that did MAX 230 with problems NOW AT A WOOPING 237 Mhz and still going UP !!!!
OMG OMG....
If only i can get it to boot from bios.Seems pretty stable in windows even at 237.
Really strange guys.I thought 230 was my memory limit....
Gonna try higher and let you know.
P.S. this bios seems to like Kinston Ram....Value at least

System setup advice for MSI K8N Neo 2 Platinum.

Here is the PC I'm putting together:
Enermax EG465P-VE Noisetaker PSU with 29A on combined 12v rail
5v=30A 3.3v=30A 12V1=18A and 12V2=18A (comb 12v=29A)
MSI K8N Neo 2 Plat
AMD 3000+ winchester Retail box (carefully replacing AMD shin etsu with Artic Silver 5)
WD 80GB 800JB 7200 rpm EIDE HD
OCZ 2 x 256 PC3200 Premier Dual Chan Memory (2.5-3-3-7) (List on MSI website as ok)
Matrox G400 max
adaptec 2930u scsi adapter
Pioneer 303S 6x scsi DVD rom
Umax 1200S scsi scanner
Plextor 24/10/40 EIDE CDRW
External USR robotics serial modem
Microsoft regular keyboard PS2
Logitech regular wheel mouse PS2
regular old 1.44 MB floppy drive
Installing Win XP Pro upgrade (have my 98SE CD)
In the future I will possibly ditch my scsi DVD rom and replace with NEC dual layer burner and replace Plextor CDRW with 52/32/52 CDRW/DVD ROM. For now I'm going with what I have.
No plans to overclock now if ever. Perhaps a small amount later. Maybe 2.0 ghz? Maybe no overclocking at all.
Not a gaming rig really, although I'll try the odd game at low resolution.
So is there anything I should do ahead of time? I am carefully installing the board in the case and everything that goes with it. What sort of configuration setups should I do? Do I flash to a more updated BIOS first? Do I leave onboard things un-activated first? How do I setup my memory? For instance, I may look for the best BIOS to start with and have it ready to use if I have problems. I may also use the nVidia drivers for onboard audio instead of the realtek drivers.
Not looking for all the answers, just feel free to point out any of the obvious which may save me time
thanx in advance for any help

There is a compatibility issue betwen the Matrox G series cards and the MSI Neo Platinum motherboards, which AFAIK, hasn't been solved yet. The problem seems to be a result of changes made in the newer versions of the MSI bios, however you may be stuck if you need a newer bios for the Winchester cpu. You can find out more if you do a search on Matrox in this forum.

MSI K8N Plat SLI Audio Problems

i just built my system and i am wondering what to do about the onboard audio. i have a old set of speakers from gateway that include a subwoofer and 2 front speakers that are digital i believe. i plug them into the yellow spdif out coaxial hole (speaker plug dosent go in all the way) and i would get a lot of crackling and distortion so i took it out, i tried all teh other onboard audio and nothing works. i checked the digital output only option and unchecked it and nothing changes. now when i plug teh speakers in nothing works no sounds nothing. anybody else have these issues? im thinking about buying a sound card what do you guys think? ithough the soundblaster was supposed to be something great whats up with this? ive read a lot of issues regarding the onboard sound but cant seem to find ananswer.

The "distortion" as you describe it is static interference that goes through to the amplifier, due to the fact that you do not have a correct connection. If the connector does not fit, do not try to force it.
I would leave the case connectors unconnected for the moment, until you get sound through the spdif out. What type of connector is it to your speakers?
you are correct sir! i did some more research with different keywords after i posted my last post and realized that i needed a 1/8" stereo to RCA converter, so i hopped over to radio shack and purchased the little connector for 4 bucks and plugeed it in and walla. Thanks for the help though.
also to the guy with the link to the front case connections, thanks for the suggestion, i had all of my audio ports connected so that wasnt an issue, but thanks for pointing that out.

Bios from my Msi k8n Neo Platinum (socket 754)

Wich is the last beta bios from my Msi k8n Neo Platinum (socket 754) ?
And where download?
Thanks

A thread here , from when 1.56 appeared:
MSI K8N Neo Plat Beta Bios 1.56
and when 1.55 appeared:
New Bios For MSI K8N Neo Platinum [ 1.55]
Seems to me that the 1.5x series were focused on chipset timings and ram .
Another thing is that i can boot from a usb pen with this one .(never got it to work with others) .
Beta bioses don't come with a changelog , they leak out . So any complete
list of changes is not possible to provide.

Help: FSB Setting for MSI 875P with Intel 3.06 533Mhz & Corsair 512 27

Help: FSB Setting for MSI 875P with Intel 3.06 533Mhz & Corsair 512 2799 333Mhz
Need a little help here, Intel's specs for the P4 3.06GHz 533 is a multiplier of 23 x 133Mhz.
However 133Mhz as a FSB seems very slow.
The 875P NEO has two BIOS settings: CPU Ratio and Adjust CPU Bus
What are your settings for these - I am quite confused?
Thanks!
G.

133 is the stock FSB setting. set your memory to DDR333.
Do you want to overclock? you might want to set your memory to DDR266 which is 1:1. so u can adjust a bit of FSB from 133 to maybe 150.
PS dont forget your memory timing. 2-6-3-3 would be oki i think. what bios version r u using?

LiveUpdate broke the bios on a MSI k8n neo v2.0, need bios and recovery files.

LiveUpdate broke the bios on a MSI k8n neo v2.0, it need bios and recovery files. I do not know the serial number. The ERP is 070. Its a "k8n neo v2.0" "ms - 7030 ver: 20c" mainboard. I don't know the previous bios version. The computer prompts for a recovery disk during an AWARD BootBlock BIOS v1.0 initialization.
Thank You.

What is the best Compressor setting for best quality video playback on an iBook g4?

I know the iBook and G4's in general are very outdated today, but I need to ask anyways. I have some video projects in 720p and 1080p in which I have down converted to 480p and also exported to MPEG-2 for DVD (personal wedding videos and videos made for my clients using Final Cut Studio). Anything encoded at most resolutions using h264 won't play on my iBook. Even 480p.
I have about 20 hours of mixed video content that I need it in a format that is suitable for an iPhone 4 and an iBook 12" with a 1.2GHz G4, 1.25GB RAM and I added a 250 WD 5400 IDE hard disk (running 10.5.8 and 10.4.11 for Classic Mode). I know the iBook doesn't seem like the best tool for modern video playback, but I need to figure out which setting will play best with iPhone 4 and iBook so I don't need to make 2 local copies of each video for each device.
The iBook plays best with the original DVD output MPEG-2 file and playing back in QT Pro or VLC... but I already have 180 GB's of MPEG-2 files now and my little HD is almost full. I don't have enough room to convert all the iPhone 4 counterparts. If I use Compressor 3.5.3, what is the optimal setting for iBook and iPhone .m4v or .mp4 files that can play on both devices? So far 720x400-480 widescreen videos @ 29fps works great on my iPhone, Apple TV 2, and other computers but seems to murder my poor iBook if encoded with high profile (and still choppy on simple profiles). 640x480 (adding black matte bars to my videos) plays fine in MPEG-2 but drops frames or goes to black screen if I convert it to mp4 (and looks bad on the iPhone 4 because of the matte). But if I convert on any of the simple profiles, it looks terrible on my iPhone 4 and a blocky on the iBook.
This is the problem leading me to having 2 copies of each video and eating my hard disk space. What is the best video setting for both playback on the iBook and iPhone 4? Can the iBook playback H264 at all in decent resolutionsat all? I don't really want to have a 480p .m4v collection for the iPhone 4 and a MPEG-2 RAW collection just to play the same videos on the iBook.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Update: The iBook can play any 480p video and higher if I encode them with DivX and in AVI format. But of course this is not compatible with my iPhone 4. At least I can shrink my library now and get away from the full MPEG-2s. I don't get why I can't use Apple's h264 though. There has to be a setting I am missing. The sample Apple h264 videos from the days of Tiger worked flawlessly on my iBook when it was new so the CPU must be capable of decoding it. I really can't understand this.
Also, since I made my videos in English for my family, I had to create soft subtitles for my wife's Chinese family, and I can't get players like QT with perian or MPlayerX to sync them properly to an AVI encoded with DivX, they only sync well with the iPhone 4 m4v/mp4 formatted files I made. This is a real pickle.
So now I may need three or four copies of each video, LOL. I need to hardcode the subtitles if I want to use AVI to playback on older machines, and keep the mp4 file for the iDevices too, while keeping higher quality h264 videos for my American relatives...
If h264 is compatible with my iBook, what is the proper encoding settings? Must I dramatically lower the settings or frame rate? I can settle on 2 copies of each video that way. One iBook/G4/eMac compatible video that syncs correctly with my srt soft subs, and another version that works well with my iPhone 4 and iPad.
All in all, I will end up with more than 3 or 4 version of each video. On my late G5 dual core I have the full 720-1080p uncompressed master files. On my i5 iMac I have the h264 compressed versions for distribution, and lower versions for my iDevices. Now I need to keep either full MPEG-2 files for the iBook to play, or convert to older formats like DivX AVI for our family's legacy machines. I am running out of hard disk space quick now, LOL.
Is there an easier way?

What is the best export setting for video on blogger

What is the best export setting for video from premeire to blogger.com or blogspot.com

I have not been able to find the technical limits/specs for the site Blogger or blogspot.com. That is why I made the post here thinking some Adobe users may have experimented already and come up with good export settings for AVI DV video to a format optimized for Blogger.

What is best network setting for jetpack mifi 5510l

I live in a rural area with poor signal. No 4G and limited 3G. We got an antenna that boosts phones from nothing or 1X one bar to 3G and 2-3 bars inside the house. What is the best network setting for jetpack? It doesn't seem to work as well.
Automatic and 4g don't work. I don't know what CDMA Auto or EDVO stand for.
Any suggestions for improving strength would be appreciated. I know I won't get a great connection but a steady connection sure would be great.

> What is the best network setting for jetpack?
Not sure what you mean. The jetpack will automatically configure itself to whatever signal it currently has access to. Shouldn't have to configure any network settings.
> I don't know what CDMA Auto or EDVO stand for.
Those are the old 3G networks.
> Any suggestions for improving strength would be appreciated.
Perform what is known as a Site Survey and evaluate your current environment:

After you generate some numbers then look up what they mean in the Interpret the Results tab. You mentioned that you already purchased an antenna so there may not be anything else you can do as the local towers in your area are not good enough to reach inside your home.
