No, that is not what I said. VistaX64 supports a lot of memory. Remember you have also a lot of memory on the video card. Your configuration might not, if the combination of the four sticks - of two different models - makes the system freeze.
Mixing memory is never good because it makes things harder for the processor (and it's memory controller).
You could still try reducing the speed of the memory, and/or increase the memory voltage a little bit.
I have 4 same memory moduls. I didn't mix modules. I just say, that same happens with my OLD 4 memory moduls(worked fine in my old motherboard Asus m2n-e sli), and with my new 4(exact same) modules.
Memory is on default speed....btw. These memory modules are DDR2-1066, but running on 800. Where should I lower speed more?

Hi all,
Ok so I said I'd report back once all working and here i am (touches wood )
So my system is now Phenom less, I'm a bit gutted it's going back for RMA for refund. I have in the mean time replaced it with an x2 5000+ BE.
So just a recap on my spec
K9a2 Platinum
x2 5000+ BE Running stock 2.6Ghz
8GB OCZ DDR2 800 Platinum
2 x 3870x2 in crossfire X mode.
Windows Vista x64 OEM
This OS now installed no issues no BSOD for secondary clock interrupt. But i did have issues installing it on the Promise raid array. Though it was the old more than 2GB ram thing so did the install with one stick and then Patch vista install the other 6GB but no still got system rebooting after the progress bar 9 times out of 10.
So i have the HDDs on the standard SB600 sata ports as individual drives, installed x64 all 8GB still installed. Not knowing yet if it was driver related I let vista install all the drivers, the only other driver my system needed were the cat 8.3s and I only installed the graphics driver and CCC not the IDE or north bridge filter as the system is using vistas default drivers.
I have installed all updates and everything seems rock solid. (touches more wood!!) I have spent the last week relentlessly trying to get this OS installed, but hey I learnt a few things along the way..
Paul
But now it is and I have my 8GB and crossfire X I'm happy and when the good Phenoms arrive I'll get one but I'll read all the reviews on the web first....
Hi,
Right then resurecting an oldish thread, I have just purchased a Phenom 9750 and installed with the new 1.4 bios, and all is well. The same Vista x64 install is rock solid and damn quick now.
Buy the B3 Phenoms with confidence they (AMD) have pulled back some ground and in my case some confidence.

P965 Platinum and Vista x64 RAID config?

Ok, I have looked all over this forum for Vista x64 issues. Nothing even comes close to my problem. When I load Windows Vista Ultimate x64 Edition onto a clean SATAII drive (single non-RAID drive) I have no problems what-so-ever.
Now here is when it really gets weird. When I run install on a RAID array (2 SATAII Seagate 160GB drives) I see issues in the install. First thing I see is it corrupts the data on the first drive. This causes a blue screen at restart. When I go into the RAID config (ctrl+I) I see the first drive has errors. The only thing I can do is delete the RAID and start over.
When I reinstall Win XP Pro X64 I have no problems at all. I have downloaded the latest drivers from the downloads section and I have tried the newer Intel drivers. Non work!
Computer info:
CPU: Intel 3.4GHz Pentium D x64
MB: MSI P965 Platinum
Storage: 2x Seagate 160GB SATAII
RAID: Intel ICH7R/ICH8R SATA RAID driver 2006-08-29 (and have tried the newer driver from Intel)
If you need more just ask!
Oh yeah, I looked at the specs sheet for the P965. They need to remove the NEC 3550 from the "OK" list since it does not Wright period or READ at install. I went through a big deal with MSI about this and they still have not removed it.

Well sh**! I borrowed a friends Vista x86 and found it to also have the same issue. Would not even load the "Choose Drive" screen or allow me to even install the RAID drivers.
Man when a board gets Vista approved is must not take much. I have had compatibility issues with this board since day one. I think maybe it is time to through it away. What a shame since it is only a few months old.

Getting static audio with Titanium and Vista x64 at random times

@Getting static audio with Titanium and Vista x64 at random times$ I have had this card for about 6-8 months and relati'vely no issues.
I just upgraded to the latest drivers 270006 and now, sometimes after exiting Turbine's Lotro, my audio plays but is very static-y, but it doesn't happen all the time. I had iTunes minimized when playing Lotro and then went to play a song after exiting. I quit iTunes and tried it again and it was ok.
This also happened in Firefox, a YouTube video had the same static audio.
It doesn't happen all the time and I do play other games, but I haven't been playing much else right now.
So right now I don't know if it's a Lotro thing or just the drivers.
I have a Q9650, single GTX260, Asus P35 board (not SLI), Vista x64, 4GB.

Carl, do let us know on the Safe Mode test... would be the first thing I'd try with what you've mentioned, but yeah, daisy chained Hubs could possibly play into it.

Unibody MacBook Pro 17, SSD and Vista x64 - Does it work?

I see many discussions about problems with various brands of SSD drives and Vista x64 under Boot Camp.
Can any of you confirm that Vista x64 will install on a unibody MacBook Pro 17" with the Apple-provided 250g SSD option?

It works well. Don't forget to turn the disk defrag off after installing and booting into Vista.

MOVED: K9A2 Platinum ACPI errors after resume

This topic has been moved to Vista problems.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=114100.0

You're welcome!
I had same problem with my old build; same RX1950 card but with K8NGM2-FID board. I think I may have updated the Catalyst drivers after I gave up trying to get standby to work, but it works flawlessly now in this new K9A2 Platinum system I have. Just to note, I rebuilt my brother's K7N2 Delta2 system with the old K8NGM2-FID board, and resume from standby works fine there too. So it could well have just been a driver issue.

Another CS4 and Vista x64 GPU SLi Support Question

After reading some of the forums I could not really find a clear answer on the following:
I am running Vista x64 Ultimate on a QX6850 system with 8GB of RAM. I also have 2x XFX8800GT graphics cards running in SLi with the latest Nvidia drivers (181.20). Dxdiag testing provides no errors.
The GPU support features in CS4 x64 (and x32) is greyed out with the text wording of no support in Photoshop standard. Based on some of the threads posted here, I tried enabling or disabling some settings in the Nvidia control panel, but the only one that seem to enable the GPU support is to deactivate SLi completely (which sort of defeats the purpose in 3D graphics).
Does CS4 support an SLi setup? If not, will there be any difference in performance with SLi disabled and using the CS4 GPU support vs the other way around?
Thank you for your assistance.

Negitive. It is written on the CS4 requirements section. Only 1 GPU.

No rear speaker sound with Audigy 4 and Vista x64

I recently upgraded to Vista x64. I downloaded the 6.0..24 driver for x64. I also loaded MediaSource for x64. I am using analog 5. surround speakers from Dell. This setup works fine when I boot into XP pro (with the XP drivers), but I only get front, center and Sub in Vista x64. Does anyone have any ideas for this?

Not sure what to tell you, hopefully someone will be able to help. One curious thing though is that according to my Sound properties in Control Panel SPDIF is working on my Audigy 4,

</center>
unfortunately I don't have anything that uses SPDIF to be able to test it.
Also have you tried installing the X-Fi drivers yet? Download, extract with Winrar (or whatever you use) and navigate to the Drivers sub-folder and run the Setup.exe there.

Satelite A300-1GN and Vista x64 driver support

Hi,
I am (happy?) owner of this model for 2 days.
However it seemes logically that if this notebook can support up to 8GB RAM (i bought with 4GB) there should be possibility to install x64 operating system.
It seems, but it's not like I see. There are no drivers for x64 MS Systems on Toshiba official website to download.
Well, I am able to understand you do not want to support Win XP x64, because this system is getting older.
I can not understand how it's possible that every large company supports Vista x64 for their devices and Toshiba do not.
It seems perverse that you do not deliver suitable drivers and I really can't believe that.
I am wonder and i hope the main reason is that product I own is a new model and the drivers appears soon.
E.g. Satelite A200 has x64 support despite its a lower and weaker model...
I hope we can expect that our doubts will be explaining, and Toshiba will not slight their custommers longer, but will incline to our requests.
If I am mistaking of looking for needed drivers, then want to apologize for my post,
but if I am not wrong I will be satisfied to hear rational answer and ensure that the drivers will comming soon!
regards
Kuba

Well I really hope it will be.
Mabye can you tell me how long does it usually take to support the drivers for 64bit systems for new model by toshiba?
If I will have to wait e.g. 2 years there will be no sense to wait for them. If does it usually take about few months I will be waiting carefully.
Or mabye somebody can give me advice if there is a sense trying to find needed drivers on devics producers sites?
Finally my question is, if models having nearly the same devices and configurations like sat a300-1GN and sat a300-15B are probably using the same drivers?
If there are the same graphic cards the same webcam the same loudspeaker? :)
Is there any sense to try drivers for this devices for sat a200 series?
I am sure i will try to install Vista x64 for few days so i am satisfied for all tips i will get here.
Greetings,
Kuba

New macbook and vista x64

... so i guess i'm trying to do something which is not supported, but it certainly seems like it SHOULD be!
i used boot camp to install vista ultimate x64 on my new 2.4 macbook. honestly i'd rather have xp 64, but it looked to me like the only drivers available were for vista 64, not xp 64.
after install, i put the os x / boot camp cd in and got the macbook air utility installer. i browsed the disk and tried the boot camp driver install file, which did nothing - asked for permission to run and then disappeared.
i then installed the drivers individually. currently the status is -
network : works great
video : works great
sounds : seems to be working, haven't checked it out thoroughly
isight : works great
keyboard : no backlight, can't ctrl-alt-del (ctrl-fn-alt-del)
trackpad : works but no right click (even with three fingers) and no scrolling, etc
i am stumped by the keyboard and trackpad. when i look at device manager the keyboard says it's using the apple driver and rerunning the 64 bit keyboard installer just tells me i'm already current. ditto the trackpad. any suggestions? thanks in advance!
i also don't have the boot camp control panel. i know what apple might say about vista x64, but these are 4gb machines. they need a 64 bit OS in windows to be useful.

ok, i got the BootCamp64 to run, and it seems to install the right stuff. To install, do this:
You will need an USB mouse for some of this
1) Run Command Prompt in Administrator Mode (find Command Prompt in the Start Menu under Accessories, and right click it and select "Run as administrator"
2) change to your DVD driver (most likely d:) d:
3) cd to the Apple Directory cd "Boot CampDriversApple"
4) run this msiexec /i BootCamp64.msi
wait, and eventually you'll get all the drivers installed. I now have Boot Camp icon in Control Panel, sound working, backlight keyboard and function keys. The only thing not working is the right click for the touch pad, even though its set in the Boot Camp icon. Anyone solved this?

When my notebook goes to sleep mode everything ok.power led is blinking.When I press Power Button fan starts wireless led is ok but screen is black.And I m not able to start system till I unplug/plug AC and Battery
Msi Service in Turkey checked my notebook.they unpluged/pluged motherboards battery to reset bios ( I think :D )and flashed bios back to 1.02 ( i was using 1.05 ).But same result.They said they don't have any idea:)
There is no problem in 32 bit vista home edition
I tried many Vga drivers.Now using moded 181.20
I tried all bios versions released on msi website.
All other drivers are up to date.
There are lots of users having same problem
I will be glad if anyone can help me.
Thanks

They wouldn't, not officially. NVIDIA started to support gamers with laptops and will do it in future, regularly. But the real problem is, that most of other vendors have their GPUs supported in those drivers and MSI doesn't, it's completely missing NVMI.INF file. Note, that there is no universal INF file, but many of them named after vendors according to the NVIDIA's filename scheme.
But beta status has not to do with the fact those drivers are working and MSI products simply aren't there.
Other side of the issue is, that MSI is selling so called gaming laptops and didn't updated the drivers since, well, July 2008 (GX630, ForceWare 176.10) or September 2008 (GX620, Forceware 176.60). It just cannot keep up with game releases and bug fixes for new games included in every ForceWare release. This kind of support is simply not enough for the respective audience.
Don't understand me wrong - the products are excellent and even my brother just ordered GX630.
Back to the issue - guys, try to use newer drivers for GX620 if you have MSI laptop with NVIDIA - and yes, even when it's not GX620. All NVIDI GPU's should be supported, check the list:

Those are probably the newest official NVIDIA drivers from MSI.
Other thing you can try to deal with the sleep mode issue is to disable PowerMizer in driver's control panel. I cannot try it by myself (have only ATI and Intel VGA here), but found it on LaptopVideo2Go site.

How do connect to internet with Leopard and Vista x64

After installing Leopard, then running Boot Camp and installing Windows Vista x64 I cannot connect to my router, either by Ethernet or Airport. Windows could not detect any wireless network when trying to set up a wireless router. When I try to connect to the router with an Ethernet cable I get an error message telling me to "The underlying Ethernet connectivity required for the broadband connection was not found. Please install and enable the Ethernet adapter on your computer via the Network Connections folder before attempting this connection. I know the router and the MacBook Pro are working because I can connect either with Ethernet or Airport when I am running Leopard. The router is a D Link WBR-2310.

It happened to me as well on Windows XP. I managed to get it to work by changing WEP password on the Airport to WPA/WPA Personal. It seems Windows is finicky about WEP set ups...

Bluetooth Headset and Vista x64

Hi,
I've run into a lack of drivers when trying to install a Bluetooth headset for use with my Mac.
I get two "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" with yellow icons in the Device Manager and Vista says it can't find drivers.
I've removed all my drivers and re-installed Boot Camp v2.1 with no luck.
Has anyone been able to get a Bluetooth headset working under Boot Camp and Vista?
thanks,
j.

Go to Control Panel/Sounds and Audio Devices (or whatever it is called in Vista), and change the output there.
Normally if it comes out of the speakers and you plug headphones in, it should automatically transfer to the headphones.
With BT I assume you need to do a little more work.

Tungsten C and Vista x64

Does anyone know how to synch a Tungsten C via USB on a computer running Vista x64? Will I also be able to synch 3rd party apps?
Very frustrated!
Post relates to: Tungsten C

I got my WiFi hotsync to work fine on my Vista 64 system. The latest Palm Desktop versions did not work for me, only the original set up disk worked. Make sure all previous versions of Palm Desktop that you may have tried to install are uninstalled first and to be safe, reboot after the uninstall. Go to help and support in your start menu. Type "compatibility wizard in the search pane. Start the wizard. Follow the directions and select the Start with XP service pack option. Also choose the start with cd option. Insert the original Tungsten C installation disk. You may have to fool around with the various screens that come up next, but the bottom line is, install the original program from your installation disk under the run with XP option. You will then be able to hotsync with Wifi after you set up the wifi on your palm with the correct computer name and ip address. (VPN is not necessary.). I have not yet tried the USB as it is still set up on a backup computer with XP, but I suspect thet it will work. You may have to reboot before the hot sync after installation. Also you will note an icon in the taskbar that shows that there is a program that was blocked from startup by Vista. You have to click on the icon and open the blocked program which is Palm Desktop before each hotsync. (It opens the hotsync icon on the taskbar and then allows the options menu in the palm desktop program to work). Also you will probably have to open the hotsync icon on the taskbar and configure the setup before first hotsync.

700p (Verizon) and Vista x64

I just bought me a new laptop that has Vista x64 on it. I've tried to sync via Bluetooth (which is the only option for Vista x64) and I get the following error message:
"Unable to initiate HotSync operation because the port is in use by another application."
Anyone have any suggestions?
