    welcome to the forum.
    For overclocking question, please post in the OC forum.
    Maesus, Isn't that this forum?
    Adomax, I feel for you.
    I can only get about +10% out of the FX60 on my RX480 Neo2 (MS7151). :(

  • Problem with my MSI P35 Neo MotherBoard [Cannot find harddrive]

    Hi guys.
    So, I've been trying to install Archlinux for a while now, and I've been trying to figure out what problem Is by myself, and I've been asking a bunch of people, but it seems that it's going to a dead end.
    What we figured out, and what we "think" it is, is that the controller on my motherboard does not support the system, and my SATA disk that I am trying to install on.
    What i have tried is that.. I've followed the "beginners guide" to install arch linux, and when i noticed that i got a big problem with my harddrive i asked some people for help, tough we cannot figure out what the problem is..
    Firstly i boot up with my ArchLinux CD.. Then i write km, to change the keyboard layout. Then /arch/setup ofcourse . After that when i try to partitionate and set mountpoints for filsystem it does not show any kind of hardware at all. So i tried to partitionate with gparted and then boot up with Archlinux again to install all my packages etc etc. But it seems like it does not write the information to anything.
    This is a big problem for me cause i really want my Arch distribution to work, so please guys.. Help me!
    EDIT
    Just in case you wanted to know.. My motherboard is a MSI P35 Neo

    The problem is the motherboard. They didnt really give me any details, but the board is replaced and now everything works great. Thanks again for all your help!
    I guess they won't provide you any details unless you really dig hard to find it out.... They just want to have happy customers anyway... As long as you're happy, case closed

  • MOVED: MSI K8N Neo-F problem with Maxtor DiamondMax plus 9 slave.

    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=95536.0

    it has a 150gb FAT32 partition and a 100gb NTFS one.
    Old mobo was a FIC AN11, but that is probably erroneous now.
    As for the motherboard not recognizing it, the ide cable was loose. after fixing that, it is detected fine in bios.
    And computer management now shows "Online" for the drive after I initialized it, but still shows unallocated under it. It is not unallocated.
    Anything I can do to ensure I don't lose information?

    Hello,
    What power supply and gfx card do you have?
    Set your FSB:DRAM (memory) ratio to 1:1.
    This will make the memory run at the same frequency as the FSB.
    So when you do eventually get to 400MHz FSB the memory will be at 400Mhz (800DDR).
    Start with your default Vcore voltage, it should be near 1.136v.
    Leave the other voltages/settings alone.
    Your default FSB = 333.
    Increase in intervals, eg +10Mhz so you are at 343.
    Run memtest, run orthos.
    If you are satisfied with the result, increase by another 10Mhz. 353Mhz.
    Do the same thing.
    keep doing this until it is no longer stable.
    At this point you should incease the Vcore voltage. (CPU voltage)
    You can try increasing it in very small steps, I would go straight to 1.2v. (CPU voltage)
    Then continue your testing, if it is stable increase again by 10Mhz.
    Just for now, do not exceed 1.2v. (CPU voltage)
    Also disable all the Spread spectrum settings.
    My gfx is 8800GT 256 mb, psu is acbel 510W..should be enough for the rig
    U mentioned leave the others volts unchanged...but if i increased the FSB to 400, shouldn't i upped the fsb volt?
    Thanks for the reply, would appreciate if u can help me......

    Make sure that the memory timings are not set to 4-4-4-x but that they are set to the defaults values (5-5-5-x).  Also ensure, that the memory clock speed is not set to anything higher than 400 MHz (=DDR2-800).  The voltage at these settings should not need to exceed 1.95V.  So please lower it accordingly.  In case the freezes still occure, please run memtest86+ to check your memory for errors.

    Please get rid of that tool for all further tests.  Uninstall it completely from your system as it is known to cause crashes and freezes on its own terms when running.

  • VCORE PROBLEMS WITH MSI P35 NEO F

    To see if I can help or at least explain what's happening, buy a MSI P35 NEO F for using a quad, the topic is as follows handling vcore is rare
    First thing I can not put less voltage that the cpu brings default, second what happens next if bios setting 1.3250 vcore for Quad, once in both windows everest, cpuz, like others programs tell me that this placed on 1.40 vcore which is excessive for the speed at which the quad, this is so in this mobo? Their story that was installed version 1.20 bios which handled vcore%, the upgrade to version 1.40 and is now handled in decimals (numbers) vcore, but still the problem
    You pull more vcore which setting in bios and if you want to download the vcore eg put 1.26 vcore not let you because it takes the vcore default of cpu minimum.
    i'm  not crashing or problems with the temperatures, but nobody likes to have more vcore's necessary.
    Wonder because being rookie of this mobo, maybe there's some bios version that fixes this bug or someone knows something else, thank you guys

    -- SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH --

    You can slap 1.6v in that CPU and temps won't rise that much.
    Core 2 Duo/Quad operates @ 1.250-1.425, anywhere in between those values is perfectly stable for Intel stock cooler and frequency.
    Absolutely nothing to worry about. But if you want to complain about >1c I really can't see the sense in that.

  • MSI P35 Neo-F (MS-7360): Computer randomly freezes while playing games

    Hi there,
    I have reached the end of my technical knowledge right now and I'm not even sure if this area of the forum is appropriate. The problem:
    While playing higher-end games like Crysis 2, Anno 1404, Mass Effect 2 etc. my computer randomly freezes and the last few milliseconds of sound are being looped on my speakers (kind of like a buzzing sound).
    By "freezing" I mean that my computer becomes unresponsive to any action other than pressing the Reset-Button or holding down the Power-Up-Button (no reaction to Ctrl+Alt+Del, Alt+F4, Alt+Tab, no mouse movement... you get it).
    There's no exact timing as to when these freezes occur. The fastest freeze happened after less than a minute of playing a game, slowes one (just today after switching to my newer case with better cooling) took about 2 hours.
    This freeze only occurs while my System is under load. No freezes while browsing the web, using office programs, listening to music or watching videos.
    System Specs:
        Mainboard: MSI P35 Neo-F (MSI-7360)
        CPU: Intel Core2Quad Q6600 @2.4GHz
        RAM: 4x 1GB DDR2-800 Corsair XMS2
        Graphics: Gainward GeForce GTX 560 Ti, 1GB GDDR5 VRAM
        PSU: Antec High Current Gamer 620W (upgraded from Xilence XP600, 600W)
        New CPU Cooler: Arctic Freezer 13 Pro (upgraded from OEM Intel Boxed Cooler)
        New Case: Zalman Z9 Plus w/ 4x 120 mm Fans (Upgraded from a Case with only 1x 250mm side Fan)
        2 Western Digital HDD (1x 2TB, 1x320 GB)
        1 DVD Reader/Burner (unimportant for that error I guess)
        OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
        2 Screens: 1x 24" Asus VS248H and 1x 21" LG Flatron Wide W2240T
    Since this error is bugging me for quite a while now and since this is not the first forum I'm trying to get help from, here's a list of steps i already took to get rid of it, obviously to no good use:
        reinstalled games where the freeze occurred
        updated all Drivers (including cleaning old versions in safe mode; also tried older drivers)
        updated BIOS to v1.A0
        Reinstalled Windows
        bought new Case and CPU Cooler to improve Air Flow/Cooling
        checked Seating of all components (took out, cleaned, reapplied thermal grease where neccessary, re-inserted)
        cleaned old case of dust (obviously no problem in the new case, which is 2 days "old")
        ran 7 sequences of Memtes86+ without any errors
        ran Prime95 without any errors for about 45 Minutes
        ran Furmark for 15 Minutes under full load (burn-in test) without any problems, even though my graphics card hit the 100°C frequency-cut level
        ran Furmark and Prime95 simultaneously without any problems
        took records of component temperatures and system voltages without noticing anything unusual (at least not after i switched to the newer PSU, which is about 1 Month old - yet didn't resolve the problem)
        tested with cyclic removal of 1 RAM device to further rule out RAM malfunction
        tested with only 2 RAM devices in dual channel mode (Slots 1 and 3)
        tried to reduce RAM clock (800 MHz --> 667 MHz) to no avail
        checked S.M.A.R.T. values of HDDs, no issues reported
        tested without any background programs
        raised/lowered voltages to RAM, CPU and Chipset in BIOS to increase logic circuit stability/decrease heat production
    I need to mention: After I transferred my system to the new case, i was able to play longer than average compared to my old case. So I am guessing that improper cooling was part of the problem, yet improving cooling obviously didn't resolve it.
    Since these freezes are really annoying and nobody could help me resolve this so far, I'm hoping to find some new ways of narrowing down the problem or even getting rid of it here.
    Regards
    Sebb

    Lets be realistic. A system with a 560TI is recommended to have a around 31Amps under full load, a CX500 would be sufficient.
    Have you monitored your CPU and memory utilisation ?
    As suggested before, test the GPU in another computer to see if the behaviour is the same.
    Whew, I thought for a second there that my common sense had left me when I saw that 60-Amp-Post ^^
    Yes, I monitored CPU and RAM usage, there is no recognizeable pattern to be seen and it almost never happens under full load.
    I will see if a friend of mine can test my GPU on his computer, and I will test it underclocked right away.
    Though one more question regarding that: Should I only underclock GPU Core Clock or both Core and RAM clock?

  • P35 neo + q9550 problems

    I've just upgraded my one-year-old PC with a new CPU and additional memory. I flashed my old BIOS 1.7 to the newest 7360v20 version, which should support Q9550.
    However I can't boot up normally (even to POST) and have to keep trying five times (in order to get the "BIOS settings resetted" -message). The only way to boot seems to be the following: In the resetted BIOS settings menu, I choose to load fail-safe options and DO NOT save the BIOS settings. If I save the BIOS settings, the PC restarts and I'm stuck in the beginning - not getting booted even to POST.
    The processor is nicely recognized by BIOS, when I finally get there. When I get booted my OS (winXP 32-bit) seems to run fine and stable (over 100 hours up and running now). However, when I try to watch 1080p video or extract large archives, my CPU slows down remarkably (1080p just doesn't run and extracting takes ages). Basically, I cannot do anything CPU costing. I'm not feeling any other differences. The temperatures seem normal and I don't get any blue screens whatsoever.
    I can think of only the following explanations
    - My CPU is not supported (my Q9550 is s-spec SLB8V). However, my system had the same boot-up problems with the older E8400 after flashing the BIOS, so that doesn't seem to be the case.
    - My BIOS somehow isn't correctly flashed, doesn't actually support the CPU, or some old settings bug it. I've dropped the BIOS battery out a couple of times to be sure.
    - My PSU can't somehow keep up
    ATM my specs are:
    MSI p35 neo(-f) motherboard
    Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 s-spec SLB8V CPU
    2x Corsair Twin2X 1024MB DDR2 800Mhz + 1x Kingston HyperX 2048MB 800MHZ DDR2 memory
    MSI N9600GT-T2D512-OC GPU
    a cheap-ass PSU with 450W and 12V/18A, 5V/14A, 3,3V/18A
    The only hardware changes are the processor and and additional Kingston RAM
    The power consumption changes are:
    Intel c2d E8400 TDP 65W (old cpu)
    Intel c2d Q9550 TDP 95W (new cpu)

    but I get only 8x 333mhz = 2,66ghz
    If you enable EIST in BIOS, the multiplier should be automatically set to x8.5.  As far as I know, this bug only exists if EIST is disabled in BIOS.  In any case, the problem should be fixed once you flash the latest A7360IMS.1A0 release for your board.  Just make sure that your system is entirely stable before you think about flashing.

    Invest in a better PSU as well.  Yours does not look very convincing (for comparison:  a Corsair VX450 PSU with the same overall wattage can deliver 33A@12V, 20@5V and 20A@3,3V ).

    Mixing different memory modules is also not a very good idea as it can cause problems of its own.

  • MSI P35 Neo 2 FR refuses to boot

    Hello. I own a MSI P35 Neo 2 FR. I have it for about 4 weeks. Today, i shut down the computer and, after i tried to restart it, it refuses to boot...
    The MB doesn't even start. But, if i get the CPU cable off the board, the MB starts, but it remains at the 4 red lights...
    So, i am asking for some help.
    Is the board fried?
    Should i take it to warranty?

    Your psu is very weak. That Cooler Master states it would be be able to do sli means nothing.
    Funny, 43A on +12V is very weak, and a statement of CM is invalidated without proof.
    Quote from: flobelix on 22-February-09, 00:26:11
    It is a split rail with three rails at 19A peak each. Peak means seconds before it blows to pieces or shuts down.
    How do you know that's a peak value and not a continuous one at 40°C? That unit is a decent AcBel unit, not groundbreaking neither a craptacular one, just a PSU who can power without problems a quad OC-ed on air and a GTX 280.
    Quote from: flobelix on 22-February-09, 00:26:11
    Across all rails it should do 516w on +12v (which means peak also), that's 43A peak total. So it won't do even 40A continous that's for sure. On each rail it won't do any more than 16-17A.
    My god! How do you know that? If it's not PC P&C it doesn't mean that it's crap.
    Read before blame a PSU for a failing MB.
    Quote from: flobelix on 22-February-09, 00:26:11
    I'd recommend trying with another and stronger psu before doing anything else.
    I'd recommend buying a MB who's able to power on long term a quad, not only for a month.

  • P35 NEO COMBO problem

    I join the club. Have the same issue but realized that it mostly happens when the power was completely switched off.
    If the pc was only shut down it reboots just fine.
    MSI P35 NEO COMBO
    Antec 350w psu

    I read the other thread in BIOS forum and for sure it's not a BIOS issue. Putting together what you say there & here this what I come up with:
     For what reason is the power shutting off? Error checking of HDD is normal if improper shutdown occurs because of power loss or being switched off and not shut down in Windows as it should be. When that happens the read/write heads are not going to proper park/rest position before the disk slows down and stops spinning. When this happens the heads make contact with disk surfaces and can corrupt data and even damage disk surface and therefor the reason for the error checking. The only fix for it is proper shutdown in Windows and eliminate the cause of power loss. If that can't be done then you need a battery backup/Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
     If you have other problems this one needs resolved 1st since more than likely this is the cause of some of them.

  • MSI p35 Neo-Fi & PSU compatibility question

    Ok I have a new high end computer system that is missing a PSU.
    I recently got Coolermaster real power 700w psu which obsiviously wasn't working with the mobo (couldn't boot). Now I'm returning that psu and I have to ask which PSUs are compatible with this MSI p35 Neo-Fi motherboard.
    So right now I'm planning to get Corsar 650w TX or Xilence 600W. I don't really want to waste time on returning another PSU so if any of you have any suggestions it would be welcome.

    I'm going for that corsair psu then, thanks for replying guys. It has gotten good reviews too so now I'm convinced it's good.
    Quote from: Frankenputer on 14-August-08, 07:02:02
    The 650TX is an excellent choice.  I'm interested in what other components you are going to have in the system.
