K8T Neo FIS2R AMIBOOT.ROM not working

Hi
Had a game crash on my system, and froze everything, so had to restart manualy - now I get the error BIOS is not installed..
I have downloaded a copy of the bios (not latest) and changed the relevant ROM file to AMIBOOT.ROM and copied to a freshly formated floppy.
I inserted the disk, held down CTRL and HOME and started the computer...
After a while of running through the messages of BIOS not installed and no SATA installed (which is correct), the floppy drive light comes on, and then after a while (afet I have released the CTRL and HOME keys) I get a message saying "Remove disks or other media, Press any key to restart" then nothing, if I press any key - it says the same thing untill I remove the floppy... and then it restarts again.
I have tried to restart using the floppy and the CTRL and HOME keys about 20 times so far - always the same result - I have even tried diferent versions of the BIOS.
Any ideas?
I only have one stick of RAM (256Kb - 333) and two IDE HD's
Many thanks in advance

Hans
My Set up is as follows (from the top of my head as I am doing this form work)
K8T Neo FIS2R.
AMD 3300 745pin chip set.
1 stick of 512Mb ram (non branded - baught from Watford Electronics)
2 x 200Gb Maxtor HD's
1 40GB Seagate HD
1 DVD RW
Power 500W
Dont know what else you need...
Anyway - last night I reset the CMOS in the way you described.
Still cant find the VIA settings in the Advanced Chipset or elsewhare - but I will. urned of SATA in Intergrated Peripherals...
Anyway - what then happens, is it says it cannot boot.
I tried using a Win98 SE boot disk - and all the drivers were listed as not possible to load or something...
Any way - deciding I did not have anotehr boot disk to hand - tried Symantec Ghost - still same result.
Finaly I tried WinXP Pro, and found that this installed all the bootup files no problem at all - what was then found was that my C: partition was missing - yup boot sector had completely disapeared.
Anyway knowing that I have recent full backups og my primary drives using Ghost, I took the plunge, created a partition in the unalocated space, reformated the drive, and reinstalled WinXP... all seems ok for now... except the message regarding no BIOS - but from what you say as soon as I fing the switch I will loose that again.
The strange thing is I never used to get this message before, and do not remember setting anything up for SATA - couldnt afford the disks at the time....
Thanks for the help Hans, you have been more than gwenerouse with your time , but can you please give me some more information? (Im a bit of a Nooby at playing with BIOS etc as they scare the crap out of me! )
1) Why is the detail of my system so important? I have made no Hardware changes for approx 6 months and everything was fine untill the game crashed, so therefore, dont see why this should affect things.
2) Why did the flashing of the BIOS not work? I was following the instructions carefully - but nothing.. therefore in my Nooby mind this means there is something else wrong, stopping the flashing from working.
Again - many thanks

K8T NEO-FIS2R RTL will not work Corsair 3700 2x512 or Geil pc4000 2x256

my corsair 2x512 pc3700 twinx will not work even with setting timings manually nor with the New Geil pc4000 (2.5,7,4,4) 4x256 all 6 modules are known good and tested on NF2 and Canterwood rigs.
ANy ideas on when a bios update to fix this might occur?
im stuck using 2x256 Hyperx pc4000
or even worse some old Hynix ram

K8T Neo2 onboard via sata not working

I recently installed this board (bought it used a while back) and I can't get the onboard Via sata ports to recognize my drive. My Cpu is a 3200 Venice, I'm using 1gb of ram (512mbx2) and my sata drive is a WD WD5000AAKS. I did get it to show up once but I have no idea how and I haven't been able to do it again. The Promise ports work fine. I've tried every combination of options I can think of. I've tried it with the ports set to both RAID and Sata, I've tried it with the Promise controller both enabled and disabled, I've tried it with every card except the video card removed, and with all the IDE drives unplugged and nothing seems to work. It did show up under bios 3.3 but that bios isn't compatible with my cpu so that's not a real solution. I've tried bios 9.3 and 9.4 and neither work. I've also tried both ports. I have a Via VT6421 card that does work so it's not a Via thing but more likely either a bios thing or the ports on the board have died but since the older bios picked up the drive I doubt that. Anyone have any ideas?

I know WD's site says it's sata2 but I think mine's an older version that's sata1. Companies are always changing products and keeping the same model number. It doesn't matter since I did try the jumper and it made no difference.
Do you know what firmware the Via controller uses in the 9.x series of bioses? I think the 3.3 version used 4.5 (the same as my controller card) but with the 9.x series it flashes by so fast I can't see it. Maybe that's the problem, the controller isn't waiting long enough on the drive.

2. Jumpering the drive to 150mbps (SATA I) limit...
Sorry, I missed where you mentioned trying the SATA 1.5 jumper prior to my post. This is concerning, though...

3. Flashing the bios to an earlier version with SATA ROM updates...
Later BIOS releases carry-over all the changes of previous releases. You don't need to go backwards to get the earlier change.
Which BIOS version did you have before and are using now? I'm having trouble determining which board you have from "K8T Neo (MS-6702 v1.0)". Is this your motherboard?
K8T Neo-FSR / FIS2R
I might be able to update the VIA SATA ROM in your BIOS to the latest version (v4.97) but I need to know for certain which board and BIOS.

K8T Neo-FIS2R - P20378 Sata Controller option missing in BIOS. Cannot disable

A few hairs left....& those are disappearing quickly.......!!!!
I currently have Windows XP PRo running under a Promise SATA Drive. (NO RAID REQUIRED)
In order to allow for a fallback situation (which I am still using swapping between WIN XP & Vista), I found a 20GB IDE Disk attached it to the standard IDE controller & did a clean install of VISTA ULTIMATE on the 20GB Drive...So Far so good.
Next I booted up changed the boot sequence to pickup the 20GB IDE drive first ...Vista Came up....Still so far so good.
Then I found my mouse ...& both USB printers were not recognised.....2 days later I have them all going okay....one problem at a time....
The only issue left ... I cannot see the SATA Drive attached to the promise controller.....I have tried following a few of suggested methods to load the promise drivers that are around......still no luck. Most of the posts I see are around installing VISTA on a SATA drive...my case is just seeing a SATA drive this not the O/S disk.
Moving on ...no luck with the Promise Drives ...so I have tried changing to the VIA Controller by unplugging the SATA cord from the Promise controller & plugging into the VIA Controller ... I boot up & still no luck...The BIOS picks up the VIA change as I see a option to use <TAB> to setup RAID during bootup.. I do not want RAID only a single SATA Drive. One of the things I read was to turn off Promise via the BIOS settings . The manual indicates I need to access this by going to the "Onboard PCI Controller option", here I should be able to turn off the P20378 S.ata Controller...
my problem is ...I can see only the Lan Controller as a option to disable/ enable the other options including the P20378 S.ata Controller.. are not visible.. hence I am unable to disable the Promise SATA Controller within the BIOS..... HELP pretty please..... I can happily run VISTA but I do not have 150GB visible to me & my current disk space is tight.....I need that 150GB ...........
signed...frustated NOOB
PS I have the most recent drivers/ bios etc according the MSI's Online S/W synch tool (which I run in XP Pro as the vista version fails.... DOH)
MB --> K8T NEO FISR2
Memory 1GB
Appreciate your help ..... TA

I agree with Hans, as far as we know there are no drivers for Vista to use the Promise controller, yet.
Same old, same old, Vista and no drivers.
You just have to wait and hope there wil be Vista drivers for the Promise controller.

K8t neo fis2r - core center not functional after installing sound card

Hi. I had been using Core Center with Dynamic Overclocking enabled and all was well. When idle, my amd64 3000+ (2.0ghz), was running at 800mhz. Under load it would go up to 2100mhz. But yesterday, I installed an Auzentech x-plosion sound card and after i installed the driver, the dynamic overclocking stopped working, my cpu is running at max all the time. (The variable fan speed function still works).
I checked the IRQ and there is no conflict, I uninstalled the amd64 driver and core center and reinstalled. Still does not work. I uninstalled the auzentech driver, rebooted, and cancelled new hardware wizard. Then the variable cpu frequency feature worked. Once I install the driver for the auzentech, dynamic oc stops working. I was thinking to try another pci slot but it appears to be a software issue rather than a hardware issue. The new version of Core Center does not work with my board even though msi says it's compatible so I'm still using the one that always worked. The amd driver is the latest and also always worked.
Has anyone else had a similar problem, perhaps using the auzentech sound card with this board and Core Center? Or does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hey guys, I just went to AMDs site to get the dashboard utility mentioned and in the readme, it stated that in XP, the power option needs to be set to portable/laptop. But in the past, I read that it needed to be set to "always on" and that it is, in fact, what I had it set to before when cool n quiet was working. Now I change it to "portable/laptop" and it works and set to "always on" doesn't work anymore. So now Core Center reports I'm at 33c @800mhz at no load. I don't get it??? I'll have to try an alternate utility just to verify that is indeed working.
btw, QV, I checked system properties, (right-click my computer > properties, or "system" in control panel) and on the "general" tab, it indicates an AMD64 3000+, 2.0GHz. But I'm pretty certain the clock frequency is dropping now as reported by core center because of the decrease in the cpu temp at idle. Am I looking in the right place in XP? I have XP pro, SP2
Again, thanks for the input and Happy New Year

P965 Neo-F audio jacks not working.

I've been having serious issues with the audio jacks on the P965 Neo-F board. I have actually tried two boards, convinced the first board was defective since my speakers worked fine on other computers. On both the current board and the last board, I did a complete clean XP install, formatting my hard drives and installing the latest RealTek HD drivers (5.10.0.5404 dated 4/23/2007, from MSI). The first board never so much as peeped, while the board I have now has made some sounds, although I honestly don't know why. On this board, I had a set of Altic Lansing 2.1 speakers, but because the speakers would pop and make static noises every now and again, generally only if I bumped one of the small stereo speakers or wiggled the cords on the back of it, I thought perhaps the problem was the speakers being old.
On the current board, I tested a monitor that has speakers in it, and there was no sound. RealTek's sound manager, which I have installed, did not recognize that there was anything plugged into the jacks even though I had a line in, microphone, and line out plugged in. When it did recognize the lino out, it also recognized the microphone. However, it only recognized them for no more than a minute. The new speakers (also Altec Lansing 2.1) made one squeak for less than a second; other than that, there has been no sound at all.
I've tried several different RealTek HD drivers from MSI, Microsoft, and RealTek, but none have made any difference. I've enabled and disabled only to re-enable the audio device through BIOS with no success. I've checked the volume, DxDiag, and played music--Winamp and iTunes are both making sound, but no sound is coming out.
I'm pretty much out of ideas here. The only thing I can think to do is get a sound card, but I don't see why I should have to do that when I'm not an audiophile and the board jacks should suit me fine. I am quite at my wit's end with this, and would appreciate any help I can get.

Quote
It recognizes that I pluged something into the microphone jack but can't get the microne to work.
This problem usually has to do with the fact that the computer case used, or to be more precise: its front panel audio connectors are not fully Intel HD Audio compliant. Disable the Automatic Front Panel Jack Detection Function in the Realtek HD Audio Manager and retry.
If your mic still does not work as it should, browse through the Realtek Program Folder and look for an executeable file named "miccal.exe". Run it to calibrate your microphone. Also, enable "Microphone boost" in the Mixer-tab of the Realtek configuration program. The top half part of the mixer Tab ("Playback") can be scrolled to the left via <> buttons. Scroll left and localize the input jack your mic is plugged into (example: "Rear Pink In"). Click on the Options button and enable microphone boost.
Quote
When I go into the mixer settings I can't adjust adjust any of the inputs - cd, mic, line etc. Although it shows places for a sliding volume adjusters but doesn't show a slider to be able to adjust the volumes of the inputs.
That is totally normal and not a problem. It is basically a limitation of the Realtek HD Audio Driver in combination with Windows XP. It has nothing to do with the board. Here is an Asus-example:
There is nothing wrong here. If you scroll through that output devices/jacks in the Mixer tab of the Realtek HD Audio Manager, you will find that you can adjust the input/output volume for each audio jack individually. Doesn't make sense to adjust input volume in the output section? Well, ask Realtek which genius designed the interface and ask him personally.

K8T Neo-FSR BIOS didn't know sampron64

Blue screens have nothing to do with the Bios update. Those are trypically symptopmatic of other issues like low amps on the 12v rail for the devices you use or memopry issues and that like. Start by testing memory with memtest86+ as it is one of the likelyest suspects. Also post how many amps are on the 12v rail base on the lable on the PSU.
As for contacting MSI directly about when a Bios update is coming won'y get an answer but you are welcomed to contact them at support.msi.com.tw if you like.

Links to discussion in a discussion board does not work from a Custom View

Hi,
I need to limit the number of Items shown in a discussion board the the 3 latest discussions.
The solution to do this is to created a new few where I set the item limit.
.. or so I thought.
The view shows only the 3 newest items however the link to the discussions are not working. If I change the view back to the normal "Subject/AllItems.aspx" view it works fine.
Anyone has a solution for this? hovering over the title link with the mouse I can verify that the links are different.
With the standard subject view where it works:
Home.aspx?RootFolder=%2Fsites%2Ftestsite%2FLists%2Ftest%20discussion%20board%2Ftest%203%202820&FolderCTID=0x012002000DF957D933C11F498845E0406B80727A&View=%7BF54786F4%2D10EB%2D4DB1%2DA686%2D7743DD17635A%7D
With my custom view where nothing happens when I click the link:
Home.aspx?RootFolder=&FolderCTID=&View=%7BF54786F4%2D10EB%2D4DB1%2DA686%2D7743DD17635A%7D

Moved iTunes Libary Now iPod does not work

I recently moved my iTunes library to an external hard disk.
Now my ipod does work. Do I need to restore it? Thanks.

Does not work at all or were the songs/files just deleted from the iPod?
Not sure what the problem was but you might want to sync again iTunes with the files at the new location.

K8T Neo-V V2.0 not supported by Core Center?!

Hey you Guys!
My System Config is:
K8T Neo-V V2.0 (newest Bios) Ms 7144 Ver: 1
Amd Athlon 3200+
I finally decided that my Amd Athlon 64 3200+ needs a bit more Power. I wanted to overclock my Cpu in the "traditional" way using the bios settings, but you can only adjust the Bus Speed.
Then i tried using Core Center just to find out, that the Ms 7144 is the only one not supported.
Can someone help me? Is there some Software other than Core Center that i could use? Or is there a way to add some additional settings to my bios like at least "Ht Frequency ratio".
Sorry for my bad english, it is a bit rusty...
thanx for help!

I'm afraid you can not do too much at all yourself.
Nvidia has a program called Ntune that optimises your system in many ways.

A few keys on the Integrated key board do not work help

After much trial and error I have found that there is no way for me to fix the fact that my qwertyuio keys on the integrated keyboard do not work....I have not taken my MBP to my local store yet because I have many projects and papers due this week and kinda need it. Luckily i have a bluetooth keyboard that works fine but i do not feel like bringing it everywhere with me in order to work on these papers and projects...where I live in not exactly the quietest place and I would like to go to the library on campus...does not work with those keys not working considering i can type four of the five vowels in the english language

Hello Hickster and welcome the Apple Support Forums,
It definitely sounds like a hardware problem so these things probably won't work but you can try:
Reset PRAM (hold the command-option-p-r during boot up after the chime)
open a new account and see if the problem persists.
go to keyboard preferences and make sure all the keyboard modifier keys are set to default
start the machine in Safe mode by holding the Shift key while it starts.
You could try to reset the SMC by turning off the machine and removing the battery and power cord, holding the power button for 5 secs then putting it all back together.
Like I said, these are unlikely to work but are pretty safe to do. That being said I highly recommend you make a complete cloned backup to another drive before you start messing around with key combinations etc. Be sure to make a back up before you take it in. Specifically back up all the papers you're working on to a thumb drive or some easily accessible media in case there is a problem.
You could then work on your papers with the Library machines (export your files to windows friendly on the thumb drive) while you wait for your MBP to get fixed.
If you still have applecare that is the way to go but if not then you could try to follow the iFixit guides for removing the keyboard and re-installing it to see if it just needed to be reseated. If you have applecare you will void it by doing that so make sure you don't void your warrantee.
Hope you get things figured out.
John
