  • Mainboard P45-C51 BIOS 5.1 : cant run Intel Q8300 CPU BSOD

    Hej i have a Mainboard P45-C51 BIOS 5.1 cant get it to Run with a Intel Q8300 CPU please help..
    I have tried 2 x Q8300 BSOD under Windows7 Installation. but with an old CPU Like Core2/6420 i works great.
    dont think i have 2 broken Q8300 because there work in others motherboard from Gigabyte.
    Kind regards THXMAN

    But get BSOD from 2 brand new Q8300 just out of the box.
    Any chance that there is a broken or bent socket pin that matters to the Q8300 more than to the E6240?  Have you checked that yet?
    Can you please have a look at the heatspreader of both Q8300s and write down the sSpec Number?  There are two revisions of the Q8300.  One with and one without Intel Virtualization Support.  [SLGUR and SLB5W]
    I don't know why, but there is no useful CPU Support List for your board (or any other board of that series for that matter).  That is why it is impossible to check if the CPU is actually supported or not.
    A look at the last generation of MS-7519-Board reveals that the CPU Support List does not have any of the two Q8300-CPUs in it.  So this may be a simply no-support issue which has nothing to do with broken components (as you said, it is rather unlikely to get two different broken CPU exemplars).
    What you can do is to contact MSI Support and ask what could be going on here:
    http://support.msi.com/
    They may provide you with a newer BIOS-Revision to try your luck with (the latest BETA Release I know of is A7519IMS.524 (v5.2b4)).

  • Where is the CPU Lock on Satellite P10-S429

    Where is the CPU Lock on The Toshiba Satellite P10-S429

    To be honest buddy, I have no idea what the other guy meant by unlock CPU but in my opinion he has replaced the CPU
    But I doubt this could be the same solution for you please dont understand me wrong but the issue can be related to everything!
    It can be a faulty CPU, GPU, motherboard, RAM or other part
    I think only an notebook technician can provide an exact answer to your issue

  • Where are the high multipliers? K7N420

    Hello everyone,
    It's been a long time since I posted here.  Mainly because it's been a long time since I screwed around with my old MSI K7N420.  Well, I had upgraded the 1 ghz Duron that was in it to a 1700+ but the damn thing went belly up, the cpu that is.  For no reason it just decided one day when my boy turned it on to not turn on.  Diagnosis, one dead Athlon XP 1700+ tbred B.
    So I decided to look around for another processor.  A friend of mine had an extra 2100+ tbred B AHIUB week 02 of 2003.  I thought, hey I'll slap that dude in there and change the multiplier to 14 or so and have a pretty decent box.  Well, it did not work out so nice.  I have the 2.7 bios and it does work with the 2100+ but only at default settings.  There are no multipliers in the cmos higher than 12.5 even though the board does seem to run fine at 13x.  I guess the higher multipliers work but are not listed in the selectable range.  What a screw up this board is.  Now I know why I switched over to Epox.  That board is 100% flexible.

    Well, as you know if you have been following this thread.  I tried flashing to 2.8 to see if it would lower cpu temps and it did not.  What 2.8 did do was cause lockups.  It would lockup after a few minutes no matter where I was.  It did it just sitting in windows and even in bios.  After this I'd have to clear the cmos to get it to boot up again.  So I flashed back to 2.7.  Let me tell you, I was sweating it as I was thinking it would lockup while flashing.  Thank God it did not.  So no more lockups but now I have a different problem.  Well, maybe not a problem, more of an oddity.  The damn thing now boots up as soon as I apply power to it.  Kind of like I had the option in bios to return to an on state when power is reapplied.  But there is no option for that.  I tried all relevent options in bios.  It's not my power switch stuck on cause it does it with the switch unplugged.  I tried another power supply. Still does it so it's the K7N420 that is doing it.
    Anybody seen this?

  • Does bios 1.08 really fix the CPU temp?

    I just plopped in a shiny new 3700+, and I noticed that unlike my old 3200+, my temps now don't read correctly.  My old 3200+ seemed to read accurately @39c.  Now with my new 3700+ it reads 63c.  I have confirmed that it is not running anywhere near that high, and seems very close to my old 3200+.  
    I'm presently running bios 1.06 and everything runs great.  On previous motherboards I've had, new bios'es  come out claiming to fix CPU temp readings, but my experance has always been that I've not seen the fix claimed after flashing.
    Has anyone running a 3700+ flashed to bios 1.08 actually seen the temp reading fixed?  I can't understand why my 3200+ reads right on but yet my 3700+ is so far off.
    Thanks

    Umm..ok, guess I will just hang with 1.06  
    I've always been of the opinion, that if your attempting to fix something, then flash.  If a new flash doesn't fix the thing I'm trying to fix, then I skip it.
    Thanks for the feedback.

  • Where is the cpu usage monitor in LPX?

    Hi everyone,
    Perhaps I missed something, but I don't find the cpu usage monitor in LPX. Anyone?

    Hey there you need to customise (change mode) the Control Bar and Display by right clicking on the icon on the far left of the LCD display.
    If you choose Custom you can select the CPU and HD usage meters in the customise drop down menu when you right click in the display .
    hope this helps.

  • MOVED: I think a bios update for the dka790gx platinum is in order

    This topic has been moved to Overclockers & Modding Corner.
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=130180.0

    I can check these timings using AMD Overdrive 3.02 (AOD).  Performance control lets you play with lots of features in memory timing that are not in the BIOS.  I used it to tighten up on memory timings get memory benchmark >2900 consistently with AOD's benchmarking utility.  I did this at stock settings.
    And the problem is there is a bug in the bios.  Least I think it is a bug.  The only time you get EPP limits on the values you can choose in the memory timings configuration screen of the bios is if you set the memory multiplier to 2.66:1, with or without EPP enabled.  Otherwise it puts JDAC 400(DRR2 800) limits on the values.  I want to have the freedom to set my timings to EPP 533 limits(DDR2 1066) when I am using a memory multiplier less than 2.66:1, like 2:1 or 1.66:1, so I don't have to up the voltage to much to get a solid stability test.  I can get a good stability test with the DRAM Voltage set to 2.2, and memory is cheap enough I just might see how long they last like that, but I really want this bug in the bios fixed.  I am sure it is in all of the MSI boards that use ATI 790GX chips.
    I have been trying to figure out is enabling EPP does anything except lock you into the EPP timings when you are at 2.66:1.  With EPP set to enabled I should be able to set my timings to CL=5, tRTC=5, tRP=5, tRAS=12-18, tRC=25-31, tWTR=3-5, tWR=8.  Having the freedom to set these to EPP limits at any memory multiplier is crucial to successful overclocking on the nb/ht reference clock.  How can we get MSI to make this a part of the next bios update?  Without this correction, I am limited to tRC=26, tWR=6, tWTR=3, these are the JDAC limits not the EPP limits.  We should see EPP limits if it is enabled.  Least that's what it says in the nearly not informative help side panel.

    I can't change the CPU multiplier in my bios.

    I can change it to 6.
    If you can change the multiplier to x6, why do you say that you can't change it?  Everything is okay then.  I don't see what your problem is.

  • New bios for T420 Updated the CPU microcode

    Hi,
    Bios 1.46
    (New) Updated the CPU microcode.
    (Fix) Corrected the help message for enabling the microphone in the BIOS Setup.
    The CPU microcode update: It will support Ivy Bridge?
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Ivy and Sandy are compatible? I don't think so...
    Maybe they just increased or blocked the amount of allowed CPU models.
    I guess Mark has to step in and explain 

  • A88XM GAMING v1.5 BIOS CPU Multiplier Locked?

    Since I updated to the latest v1.5 BIOS the CPU multiplier seems to be locked. Is this intended or an issue with BIOS, or am I just doing something wrong? The multiplier worked fine on v1.4. I am using an AMD Athlon 760k CPU. Thanks.

    I cleared CMOS and it's working now, it's something I really should have done in the first place  Thanks

    Thanks Vern,
    I´m thinking in get a Zalman 9700 cooler.
    Now I have started to do what you say and increase the fsb by steps of 5 and run 3dmak06 and Everest stress test for 5 or 10 minutes to see if the system is stable.
    Now i´m running fsb 340x9 with vCore 1.33 and DRAM 840Mhz with volt 1.9. Everything is ok.
    I have upgraded the BIOS to 1.8, but the problem of difference from bios setup and cpu-z fsb reading are still there. (The Bios is 340 but CPU-Z and DualCore Center is 337) Do you have the same problem?
    Little at a time is the way to go. When you get that cooler you can get your vcore up in the 1.4 range. Then you should get higher numbers. You will nearly always see a different cpu speed in windows than what you see in bios. That's not a problem.

  • P45-C51 - Noise from CPU Phase LEDs

    Hi,
    I've just finished setting up a new PC based on the MSI P45-C51 (MS7519) mainboard (see full specs for the system in my signature).
    Everything works fine, but.. The CPU Phase LEDs LED1, LED2, LED3 (the three blue LEDs in the upper right corner of the mainboard) emit some kind of very annoying high frequency noise as they flash (in sync with the hard drive activity LED on the front of the cabinet/tower).
    It's very important for me that I have a silent PC, so I've gone into great detail choosing the most low-noise components for this specific machine. Everything on this machine is very silent - except for the motherboard, which I would have expected would be the least of my problems when creating a low-noise PC!
    So my thoughts and questions are:
    - Is there any way I could turn off the flashing of CPU Phase LEDs (in BIOS, jumpers, software)?
    - Could it be a PSU issue (is 400W not enough for this setup)?
    - Or is it just a faulty mainboard (has other users experienced a similar noise from these LEDS)?
    I don't even see the reason for why the LEDs are there. The mainboard manual only has a very short and practically useless explanation of the LEDs. It only says what power modes they show (1 and 3 phase power mode) - not when and what to use them for..
    Hoping that someone can shed some light on this issue, and hopefully help me solve the problem..

    Now that I found out that the problem wasn't related to the LEDs on the MSI mainboard, I shifted my focus towards the CPU - The Intel Core 2 Duo E8400.
    From searching/reading about this specific processor on various pages found via a Google search, it sounds to me like a lot of other users have this issue to - it's called CPU whining - some kind of piezo vibrations caused by the extra power (that would normally be used by the CPU) which is being thrown back into capacitance when SpeedStep throttles down the CPU (no load). So it's not the CPU per-say, but the capacitors and voltage regulators that generates the noise (at least from what I am able to read). I guess it's not directly related to the MSI mainboard, and so maybe this post isn't even relevant in this forum any longer..
    When I write it's not directly related to the MSI mainboard, I mean that perhaps if I mounted this CPU in another mainboard, maybe the problem would go away - so I think it might be the combination of this specific motherboard and this CPU that creates this noise. A lot of other Intel Core 2 Users doesn't seem to have this problem, while others again complain about it. I guess it's also a very subjective question about how sensitive your ears are to high-frequency noises (probably in the 15.000-18.000 KHz range). Some write that they hear the sound, but don't care, while others hear it (and like me, are annoyed by it) from across the room through music, conversation and/or other background noises.
    Long story short, the users of the MSI HQ Forum (especially Jack t.N. - a lot og appreciation and thanks goes out to you, my friend  ) should not use more time and effort on this issue..
    Except if there's something that I might still have missed in the BIOS settings, that you think I need to try out first, or if this "newfound knowledge" raises any other questions or inspires a possible solution!
    I will leave the post open for a few days just in case.

  • P45-C51 mobo. Mouse and Keyboard freezes frequently. Please Help !!!

    Hi everyone. I just bought P45-C51 mobo a week ago. It was working fine then since yesterday and then frequently today I'm facing a real problem. I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. Whenever I start my computer and it reaches the desktop, after a couple of minutes the mouse and keyboard stops responding but the windows is not hanged as I can simply press the power button and it normally shuts down within 5 to 10 seconds. I checked it both with USB and PS2 version of the keyboard but both seems to freeze. I first thought it was something in windows but i think its something from the bios because when i turned my pc ON and went to the bios then there after 5 minutes the keyboard was frozen but the bios was normal as i could see the seconds change on the system information screen. Can anyone please point me in the right direction what could be the cause of this problem. All the specs are as follows.
    Mobo: MSI P45-C51 (MS-7519)
    Processor: Core 2 Quad Q8400
    RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8gb kit 1600Mhz (4x2)
    GPU: EVGA GeForce GT 240 DDR3 1GB
    PSU: Cooler Master Extreme Power 460 Watt
    Casing: Cooler Master Elite 334 Nvidia Edition
    HD Primary: WD2500AAKX 250GB
    HD Storage: WD10EARS 1TB
    Bios Version: 5.7
    Cooler: So far none. I'm on air cooling. One CPU fan and two chassis fans.
    Temps for CPU are under 40 degrees.
    Please help anyone...

    Inspect all your USB ports carefully for any visible damage inside the ports itself. Test if a USB device can be inserted smoothly into each one.
    As a last resort, remove the MB and test on a non-conducting surface, and remember an anti static bag is not a non-conducting surface.
    Have you started your system in safe mode to test the ports ?
    Hi Bernhard, Sorry for the late response. This problem was something related to that board physically as I searched and dig inside the motherboard basics in deep I found out that the ICH10 Usb Host Controller was giving me problems or their might actually be some problem with the South Bridge because thats what controls the low power accessories like usb, IDE sata etc... and thats why the keyboard and mouse was hanging. There were some more issue too with that board like Slow boot and resuming from hibernate took about 3 minutes and when I press the power button for the cold power on it usually power on after 3 seconds and some times it happened if i properly shutdown and then again power on it won't turn on (LEDs and fans start but no power on to the system) So i would have to switch off the power supply, disconnect the power cord and then wait 5 minutes and then reconnect and it turn on then.
    What i did was go to the shop from where I bought the mobo and told him all the problems and replaced my board with a new one because it was in warranty and bought only eleven days before.
    Thanks alot Bernhard for so much your time you spent on helping me on this issue. The new board seems to work great and I can see very significant different in performance and speed.
    Two last queries I have if you can help me out. Can you tell me If i can use Cooler Master Hyper n520 Cooler on this board. I have CM Elite 334 Nvidia Edition Casing. And second thing is that the bios of this board 5.1 and the latest is 5.7. Should I care updating the bios version? If yes then do you suggest any hints on how to do this ?
    I really appreciate your help you have done so far.

  • Blue screen P45-C51 Help!

    Hey guys,i got a problem with my MB P45-C51.
    I'm using a Q8300 processor on my MB,maybe this is a wrong thing,too...
    I recently installed 2x1gb Team Elite 1333 mhz ram,along with my older kingston ram 2x1gb 1333mhz.
    Both are in dual channel ,so i have 4gb of ram,dual channel.
    Now,i keep getting BSOD ever since i installed those Team Elitehttp://www.google.ro/imgres?imgurl=http://www.allshops.ro/files/clients/19/2342/p/41/team-elite-ddr3-1333mhz-2gb-cl9-9-9-24-15v-ted32048m1333hc9-275569.jpg&imgrefurl=http://dwyn-shop.allshops.ro/produs/275569/Team%2BElite%2BDDR3%2B1333Mhz%2B2GB%2BCL9-9-9-24,%2B1.5v%2BTED32048M1333HC9.html&usg=__1t_LhZjnP4sEE0YCTvqZ6X5xYeg=&h=400&w=400&sz=49&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=6wgWxmVb7HB15M:&tbnh=150&tbnw=156&ei=EVBuTZDqD830sga_js38Dg&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dteam%2Belite%2B1333mhz%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1680%26bih%3D925%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=336&vpy=71&dur=1224&hovh=225&hovw=225&tx=162&ty=134&oei=EVBuTZDqD830sga_js38Dg&page=1&ndsp=40&ved=1t:429,r:1,s:0
    I upgraded to the latest bios,nothing changed,i tried modifying in bios the voltages of ram 1.60 or 1.30,still,the same thing,disabeled Spread spectrum also..
    I tried lowering the ram frequency to 1066 mhz,still,no change.
    Any ideas?
    Ohhh,last,but not least,i scanned my rams for any errors with memtest86,no errors.

    Well,i'm still getting BSOD,before starting windows 7.If i power off the power supply over night(every night i do that) in the morning i still get this BSOD.I get Ntfs.sys ntdl.dll something like that BSOD before starting windows 7 and i have to load defaults in bios and after that it work normally.
    Tried trfc 88 and trfc 107 and tras 25,didn't work.Any ideas?
    Should i lower from bios to 1066mhz and what timmings?
    Thx!

  • Where is the bios chip located in the Equium A210-1C4?

    Have replacement bios chip for this model, but not sure where the bios chip is located on the motherboard?
    Any assistance appreciated.

    The BIOS chip is soldered onto the mainboard, you just can't replace it. It also needs to be programmed before usage using a special EPROM machine..
