MOVED: K8N Neo4-F HTT Problems

This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=103586.0

I think this is related to the 219mhz HTT boot issue (as I was looking around the overclocking forums). I'm actually going to try using clockgen to see if if works. It was said in the topic that this is only on Winchesters.. But I have a San Diego.
By the way...

Are you setting the 2.5-3-3-7 manually or allowing the BIOS to auto set them? If auto that may be a problem and if manual are you putting the 2.5, 3's and 7 in the right place?
I manually set the timings to the timings of the RAM.
Quote
Any performance option enabled?
Other then 1T command rate, nope. Aggressive Timings is disabled in the Cell Menu. I have tried disabling 2T command rate, doesn't help. I wouldn't run the system with 2T anyway. This RAM is rated at 1T at 250mhz (which I have memtested it at).
Quote
Have you tried 4x or 2.5x HT link speed?
Yes, no change.
Quote
How the hardware monitor screen look? Good voltages, good CPU temp?
Voltages are constant. Both System and CPU temp at around 28c.
Quote
What BIOS rev did the board come with?
I'm not sure.. I have updated the bios though (now at 5.30).

his may get moved by a mod to the overclocking section of the forum. Just FYI.
I realize that now :P

K8N Neo4-F - i think i have a problem

Quote from: lparker on 03-December-05, 10:40:24
The fan will spin at a certian speed depending on the temperature of the chip. Example: at 20degrees the fan spins at 2000rpm and at 30 degrees the fan will spin at 4000rpm. This is normal.
k thx i appreicate the help that took a load off my back. at first i thought id have to go get another MOBO.

MOVED: K8N Neo4 Platinum - Overclocking Troubles - Memory Timings (2T)

K8N Neo4 Platinum - Overclocking Troubles - Memory Timings (2T)

i had a similar problem at first, my system wouldnt post even at shockingly low overclocks, like 225 fsb, anyway i noticed that the 1,5 bios automatically set some strange timings for my ram, cant remember exactly what but when i went through the timings manually then i could clock up to 280 or so. This is on 166mhz memlock, i still cant get a decent overclock using the 150 memclock or anything lower.
Contacted MSI but the 'technical support' department, although quick to respond, seemed absolutely clueless when it comes to overclocking.

Another K8N Neo4, 3800 x2 Problem

Before I start here are the specs
Amd x2 3800 with stock cooling
Msi K8n Neo4 Platinum
2 gb OCZ Dual Channel Platinum Link
eVGA 7800gt
Ultra Xconnect 500watt psu
2 160 gb Hitachi Deskstars in Raid 0 on nvidia raid controller
2 Ide Hard drives
Problem: Complete lockups in games.(no sound, no mouse, no keyboard, no screen activity) Mainly Counter-strike Source. Battlefield 2 sometimes freezes but it always happens with CS:S. I have tried installing the AMD x2 driver, Microsoft hotfix, the registry tweak to activate the MS hotfix, reverting to the 7x.xx forceware, trying multiple forceware beta drivers, setting affinity to 1 cpu, updated bios to 1.b, formating multiple times trying different forceware drivers etc. When I install Windows before I do anything I am doing a full windows update installing everything until there are no critical updates left and also installing the latest directX.
I ran prime95 on both cores for 7 hours and nothing was found. I ran memtest for 4 hours 30 minutes and nothing was found.
As of right now I should be recieving a Amd 64 3800+ (non x2) tomorrow from newegg and seeing if that works. Here are pictures of my bios settings.
Couldn't get the very last line so heres another pic that includes the Nf4 voltage.
edit: Forgot to add this
Memory Timings
Incase imageshack links die/slow heres an alternative http://urlx.org/dmservers.com/064b

I switched the ram to the 2 slots closest to the cpu and it then allowed me to change it to 1T. The ocz guy sent me a whole list of settings which I did but then when I saved and restarted it didn't post. So I tweaked them a bit and now it works fine. According to Everest I am now above the benchmarks compared to the other x2 3800+ on the nforce4 ultra.
1 thing I did notice was that every now and then I would lock up in the bios for some reason. As in I would be changing some settings and then I couldn't use the arrow keys to move at all. I wonder if its because I am using a wireless keyboard or maybe the usb to ps2 adapter is messing it up?
edit: heres screenshots. I know I am big on screenshots.

K8N Neo4 - F: HDD problems

Hi, I have a little big problem with my K8N Neo4 - F. I bought a 750GB hard drive with 16MB cache but the motherboard cannot detect the full capacity of the HDD, it detects only 128GB of it. I read that I have to update the bios version of the motherboard and then I wouldn't have problems, and I did so, but nothing happened, it still detects 128GB. Please, tell me what to do or does the motherboard support this type of HDD at all. Thank you and sorry for my bad english

Which revision of the Mobo do you have 1.0 or 3.0?
Also after flashing the BIOS did you reset the CMOS?
Which version of the BIOS did you flash?
Please list your system specs please (like what I have in my sig at the bottom of my post).
Would you mind if I send you print screens of the program I use to see my specifications, because I'm not sure about everything. I'm from the lamers you know

HELP! K8N NEO4 SLI - SOUND PROBLEMS WITH INSPIRE 7.1

People, i bought K8N NEO4 SLI, and i'm having problems with my Creative Inspire 7.1. I have certain that everything is connected in a correct way, drivers ok, but the side surround speakers doen't make no noise. Creative media is set to 7.1 channels and the speakers too...
I'm thinking that the onboard audio is a bul....
Can someone help me with this? Who here has the same kit as me?
Thanks a lot
Edinho
(brazilian guy)

Man, i'm using those standart cables offered with the product....i thing its analog, i don't know certain...
i'm very about this onboard sound...
and the worst thing, i'vc contacted creative for explanation about it and they answer me that they could'nt help, cause it's a OEM product...no response about it, have to contact MSI..
here in brazil, it's real difficult, cause anoyone cares about it...
i have absolut certain that software and hardware configuration/instalation is ok...cause i had those speakers in other PC...
i've already head tons of audio-problem topics here, and i say: K8N N4 SLI Integrated Sound is a bul...

Answer what ... there's not really a question, is there?
Anyway, when you're not content with the bios you flashed, use the old one.
Don't flash unless it's absolutely necessary.

MOVED: k8n Neo4 Plat problem

This topic has been moved to Linux/Unix.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=135116.0

got 3.8 flashed up, my system still reboots if i hit tab while it is doing a full memory check on a cold boot (notice last night it dosen't do a memory check on a warm reboot).
I was at least able to load into windows 2k with this bios though (unlike 3.7 that froze on the windows splash/boot screen).
I am going to try my friends memory and video card (which are duplicate to mine) and if it still reboots every time i hit Tab while it is doing a memory check i am going to RMA the board monday.
I tried for several hours to get the system to "fail again" in windows and i have had no luck at getting a second lockup/failure.
also the main C: (the raptor 74gig) said the SMART information was all in spec (also ran the WD diagnostic tools on it and everything passed).
I figure all i can do is RMA the MB which i am 99% sure will fix the weird boots (slow to come on if it has had 100% power loss/cut), and thenwhen it is doing the POST memory check and i hit Tab (from a cold boot) it reboots again, also the few lockup's i had at the POST splash screen (which i haven'g gotten to repeat either but i didn't try too hard only about 5-8 reboots)
I really feel these issues are motherboard issues. As for what happened in windows (with it freezeing and document and settings getting corrupted/renamed) i just do NOt know if that is associated with the other ones, or if it was a completely seperate fluke and i am just not gettong concerened about these other issues (that i have had from day 1)
Thanks for the assist all, Hopefully RMA and getting a repaired/refurbed MB will fix all my issues. I hate having an unstable system, but when it is a unrepeatble crash/freeze it makes it SOOOO difficult to diagnose if you don't have weeks to work on it.

K8N Neo2 Platinum overclocking problem

Quote from: Sharp on 24-April-05, 06:04:48
Hello,
In the BIOS you must set the FSB:DRAM ratio to 1:1.
Set the HTT (hypertransport Ratio to x4)
Set the CPU ratio to x4 (just too see if it will work.)
Set the FSB to 250Mhz
Set the Vcore to 1.45v.
Set the memory timings to SPD (or default values for DDR500)
Set the memory voltage to 2.7v, 2.75v or 2.8v.
Save and exit
Then let it boot from the memtest bootdisk.
Use memtest to see if it is ok, test for a long time, over 1 hour.
http://www.memtest.org/download/1.55.1/memtest86+-1.55.1.floppy.zip
Tight timings and high FSB is even better
I have the same problem I can go as high as fsb 219 without tweaking anything but the FSB. My system is about the same only my ram is ddr 400 so what should my mem volt and timg should be set to?

Thanks
You've sussed I've got problems as a beginner even on using this forum. EG I've tried to put in my computer stats but not sure they are in.
I've read that my mainboard can as a socket 939 use the dual- Core processor X2 and up to FX 60. However according to sisandra my board is not supporting dual core. Which is right?
Thanks
Nope, that's false info.
Look here for supported CPU for your mainboard:

MOVED: K8N Master2-FAR USB problem in Linux

This topic has been moved to Server/workstation.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=96587.0

Got it to work.
In order for the keyboard and mouse to work, I had to set the BIOS to USB 1.1 support.
By default, it was set to USB 1.1/2.0.
After I changed the BIOS, I was able to run and configure Linux Fedora Core 5.
Also, Windows Vista Beta 1 worked. Before, not only the keyboard and mouse wouldn't work but also the installation would crash.
NVIDIA says that the NFORCE USB is natively compatible with default Linux USB drivers.
Apparently, that is not the case.
