Thanks for the reply DougKmcse
I have no trouble with the overclocking since this is only a minor overclock (2.8GHz), the only problem I have with this is it gets stuck at restart. With that 2.8GHz OC, i have the vcore @ 1.285v which was stable running 1hr Prime95. I just can't understand why it gets stuck during warm boot.. might try to experiment (400x6 = 2.4GHz) when I get home from work to see if the 400 FSB is causing this. And yes, I agree with you that it would be easier to use a lower FSB with a higher multiplier. I just wanted to try having 400 and having a perfect 1:1 ratio. I have some data suggesting a 1:1 (@ 400:400) is better than 1:1.2 or any other divider. I used Everest cache & memory bandwidth benchmark to test this. I got lower "ns" testing my RAMs (PC6400 DDR2 800) during 1:1 FSB:Ratio (400:400) vs 1:1.2 (333:400)

P45 Platinum won't POST with full memory banks

I have 4 identical 2GB DDR2-800 modules. If I install 2 the system runs fine. If I install 4 the system will not POST, hangs with the memory code. I am replacing an old P35 Platinum that had exactly the same problem (though I was using 1GB modules with that instead of these 2GB modules). 2 modules fine. It doesn't matter which 2. 4 modules bad. Won't POST. Is there some setting that prevents you from using both banks unless you change it?

They are PNY Optima. I am running them at the default timings (I think the default is for BIOS to handle it itself with SPD). I probably wasn't clear before but both modules are installed in the same bank (both in orange or both in green). I just can't fill more than one bank and get it to POST. These modules all work fine independently. There is some board/BIOS issue that is not allowing me to use both banks. I had the same exact problem with my P35 Platinum with different modules. I could run one pair, but not two pair.

Still does not work. Any ideas from users who have faced similar problems are welcome.
Meanwhile in a private message I have been accused of spamming all P45 threads. This is atrocious! Please guys, I am not here on behalf of MSI's business rivals to create a ruckus. I have spent my hard earned money on the board and am now facing problems. I hoped to gain sympathetic answers from fellow users, instead of biased accusations. Let me mention here that I have seen seven P45 problem threads on page no. 1 alone of this forum. I responded only to two of them, because my problems were similar.
So if you have any ideas to resolve my difficulty, please tell me about them. This is going to be my last MSI purchase. But that should deter fellow users from helping me out. You are not working for MSI after all!

MOVED: Re: K9A Platinum won't post ATI HD 5770

I've tried everything I can think of to get my new XFX ATI HD 5770 card to work, but nothing will get that card to post. It sounds like it boots just fine, since I can hear and see the fan turning on, but the monitor is completely unresponsive. I change back to my old ATI x1950pro and it works just fine. After researching on the web, it seems that this has been a huge problem with this card. I'm really hoping this is something I can fix on my mobo, because I would hate to have to drop extra cash on replacing a mobo, just to replace my gpu. My psu is a NZXT with 24a, 30a and 20a on the +3.3V, +5V and +12V lines respectively. Total power is 650w.
Did have the same probably not booting up with my 5850 but found a fix, there's a beta bios that's been given out from msi's tech support, check this thread https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=131546.0;topic it works, try it out and get back to let us know how it went.

MSI 770T-C45 won't post after flashing BIOS with M-FLASH

After flashing AMIBIOS 8.3 to v8.7 with M-FLASH via USB stick I can't get any post.
Had I read this forum before I wouldn't have done it, but here I am.
Fan starts, LEDs are off, no beeps at all, power button does nothing. Black screen.
After force flashing (yes, I am THAT stupid) the prompt said it would reboot in 5 seconds and after that nothing.
Here's my setup:
Board: MSI 770T-C45
Original Bios: v8.3
Flashed Bios: v8.7 (flashed with M-FLASH)
VGA: EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660
PSU: Enermax FMAII EG465AX-VE 460W
CPU: AMD Phenom x4 9650
MEM: Kingston DDR2-667 4x2GB KVR667D2N5/2G
HDD: SAMSUNG 840 SSD 250GB
OS: Windows 8 Pro 64bit
I tried every CMOS clearing method found in previous posts and threads (including this and this.)
1. Unplugged from power, waited 5 minutes, removed the battery (5mins), changed jumper position (5min), switched it back (5min), plugged it in (5min) and powered up with and without USB stick in the hub next to network hub with old BIOS (v8.3) inside. Pressed CTRL+HOME, anything, not a single message or beep or LED flashing.
Also I removed all RAMs and kept one in the first socket. Nothing.
I really don't know what to do next. What seems to differ from other users is LEDs non working, what does that mean?

The problem here is that after update 8.6 the m-flash module was updated, so yes your mobo is a brick, but there is still hope for it. I had the same situation a few days ago with the exact same model and was able to recover it by following the steps on listed on the below posts:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=133578.0
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=129989.0
It may seem complicated at first, but trust me its not at all.
Anyways you probably already have another mobo, send it for RMA or used it as frisbee, but it may come handy for some other doing the same noob flashing as we did

Neo Platinum won't post after BIOS change...

I changed a few BIOS settings in my machine. Everything was working fine before; all I switched (to my recollection) was changing the boot order and also switching from Manual to Automatic for High Performance Timings (named something like that).
After doing this, the machine won't even POST; I get a ~2 second long beep shortly after turning the machine on, and this beep repeats with a ~2 second pause between each beep.
I have tried:
- taking out the memory in bank 2
- taking out both DIMMs
- doing the JBAT1 CMOS reset (pins 1-2 going to 2-3)
- doing the 'remove the battery' CMOS reset
- doing both the JBAT1 and battery reset approaches, leaving it in 2-3 and battery out all last night
After all of these, there was no change -- I still get the beeps.
D-Bracket seems to have the bottom left light red, and the rest green, if I recall.
Any guesses? Thanks.

Ah, to clarify -- I looked at the Basic Troubleshooting Guide for the exact description of what the D-Bracket is showing. It looks to be "Initializing Keyboard Controller".
Maybe someone else knows -- in the list of all of the D-Bracket codes -- which are meant to be green and which are meant to be red? (As the page has white and black..so I'm trying to confirm that I'm right in mapping correctly between white/black and red/green; if my mapping is backwards, then it really means "Assign Resources to all ISA").
As for possible memory issues -- if I hadn't changed anything in the BIOS other than memory timings -- wouldn't resetting the CMOS have gone back to default timings (which were working a-ok until I made that BIOS change). (Plus, I don't have any other RAM, so I'm looking for other things to also try

MSI K9N2 Platinum won't POST

So, long story short, I had this machine up and running. I plopped in a PCI-E graphics card, however switching primary graphics in BIoS wouldn't get it working. This was fine, it had happened to me before, all I had to do was clear CMOS.
So, I decided to take the battery out to have a complete wipe; while taking the battery out, a third of the battery 'holder' snapped off. This didn't have any conductive materials on it, it's strictly the plastic. The battery still fits inside nicely.
Upon booting the machine now, it sits on the BIOS screen. Hitting tab to POST gives me a screen that lets me know all devices were detected...then it just sits there. The board's built in D-bracket gives me 4 red lights. I have no clue as to what I can do.
I've tried clearing CMOS again and removed all HDDs, but still no luck. Did I just bust my motherboard?

Are you sure you didn't re-install the battery upside down? When you removed the battery did you pry it out or did you release the metal tab that holds it in place? It seems to me the only reason any of the holder would break off is by prying the battery out with some kind of tool.

Msi p45 platinum - freezes after power save turns off displays

Just put this computer together, everything is stock, no overclocking. Seems to run fine, played a few hours of modern warfare 2 with no issues.
I noticed It seems to freeze after the monitor gets turned off by the power save mode. I just tested this by setting it to turn off displays after 1 minute of inactivity, waited watched the monitor turn off, then I went to the move the mouse and the screen came back on but the cursor would not move. sometimes the screen will not even come back on.
I have turned the computer on, left the room while it was booting to eat breakfast or take a shower, came back the screen was still on but the computer was frozen. Window 7 login screen was up, but there were some graphic glitches. this has happened a couple of times.
If I manually put the computer to sleep it seems to come back properly.

I think it might be the video card or power supply. Was building two systems,
second system has identical motherboard, processor and ram,

Installed from same OS disc and same set of drivers. Second system seems to operate the powersave mode for the monitor correctly. Will have to do some testing switching videocards tonight.

Overclock an E8400 in a MSI P45 Platinum

Specs:
CPU: Core2Duo E8400 E0 @ 3.0Ghz
Memory: 2GB OCZ DDR2-1066 (Dual Channel) @ 5-5-5-18-2T
Motherboard: MSI P45 Platinum
PSU: 750w Antec TruePower (4)12v Rails @ 25Amps each, two rails dedicated to GPU and other two rails to HDD's/DVD Drives
CPU Heatsink: Zalman CNPS9500 w/ Arctic Silver
The reason for the post here is because I can't seem to overclock my CPU with very much grace without running into BSOD's/Lockups/Reboots and whatnot...I'm even having some issues right now where I have to run the RAM at 1:1 or 1:1.2 (667Mhz or 800Mhz depending)
I guess the other issue I'm having is I have no idea what half of these settings are even referring to and I really hate to admit that...:(
Anyway I was hoping there was someone here with a similar setup that might be able to shed some light as to what I might be doing wrong...tried tweaking the dozen voltage options and whatnot without much success and very poorly describe items such as "Drive Setting 1/2/3/ETC...

What is your current BIOS Version?
Please post a list of the Cell Menu Settings that you have used to far when you attempted to overclock your system.
For a quick test:
-> remove the two OC Jumpers from there pin headers (this will force the FSB Clock Speed to 400 MHz), clear CMOS with main A/C power cable removed from PSU after that and see if the system will start-up properly.

MSI P45 Platinum and RAID 0!

System specs below! First of all this system is basically a gaming rig. I am running Vista 64 on one single Western digital hard drive, and using an identical drive for storage. I was thinking about setting up a RAID 0 array with these two drives. Can this be easily done with this mobo? I am just wondering if there are any quirks associated with the MSI P45 Platinum mobo that would make this a pain to set up. Anyone else running a RAID 0 with this mobo and having good results? Would it even be worth it?
I was told my several different people in the gaming community, that RAID 0 really speeds up map loading, which would be great. I would be backing up the array to another internal drive using True Image.
Any advice would be great!!

Only, if you set the controller to AHCI Mode (which would not really be a problem either). You probably won't need any additional drivers when the controller is working in IDE Mode.
If you have to install drivers, use the latest ones from the JMicron FTP Download Server:
ftp://driver.jmicron.com.tw/jmb36x/Win2k_xp_Vista/
Ok, well I won't have my new storage drive until Thursday. I will run HD tune on the drive connected to both different controllers and see what is the fastest.
I know we talked about this just a little. Still wondering about the RAID drives, or any drives attached to the ICH10R's SATA connections when it is set to RAID in the bios. The drives, including my SATA CD/RW drive does not show under "Standard CMOS features". Just #7 and #8 of the JMicron's show since they are still set to IDE in the bios.
You commented with:
"They are now Controlled by the ICH10R Firmware. Look here":
--> Integrated Peripherals --> On-Chip ATA Devices --> AHCI Devices Group
--> Integrated Peripherals --> On-Chip ATA Devices -->
Those locations are just where you set the RAID mode. There's no actual drives listed there. I do see a screen popup when booting my system with the two RAID drives saying "ok" and bootable. Plus I see them in the Matrix storage console. Is this normal then? There really is no place when you search through the bios that you can see them listed?? I can hit the Ctrl and I keys and go into the actual RAID bios, but I don't see my RAID drives listed in the actual bios.
Am I explaining this right?? Just wanting to make sure everything is working right. It sure seems to work well with bench marks. Here's a shot of my array with HD tune. I'm thinking that burst rate can't be right.

MSI P45 Platinum and Scythe Ninja 2

Hi all,
I'm a rookie here and sorry if this question has already been asked but search didn't give solution. I'm planning to buy an MSI P45 Platinum and found Circu-Pipe 2 interesting. They said it leaves enough space for "giant CPU heatsinks". Scythe's Ninja 2 seems to be a giant one... Cause I will purchase them via net, I cannot try them manually in a shop. Does anyone (or friend...) have the same or similar Circu-Pipe-d mainboard with a Ninja 2? Will them work together?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers!

Problems Powering up MSI P45 Platinum board --LED3 still flashing

Hello all
I've currently started a new build using the following equipment:
Coolermaster COSMOS 1000
MSI P45 Platinum
Intel Quad Q2600 Processor
1200 MHz patriot 2x1GB Memory
xfx 9800 HD 1GB Graphics Card
power supply Trust switching power supply ATX 400W&P4 :
220 v AC
+3.3v---20A
+12v ---18A
-12v --- 0.5A
+5v ----24A
-5v ---- /
+5v sb ---2A
Wired everything up, connected all the connectors. When I go to power up the system, I get a Red LED 3 but no fans or anything spins up. Switched out for a known good power supply and received the same problem. Not sure where to go from here?
and also i press cmos reset button and nothing happing

Quote from: flink on 30-April-09, 13:56:54
i'm sure the hole for the cmos clear button in the i/o shield is the problem. the button is pressed by the i/o shield and your pc won't start.
a well known problem.
I remember reading about this issue before I built my P45 Platinum system. I made sure during the build that the button was not being pressed by the i/o shield.

Msi p45 platinum power up problems

Hey guys, i have got a fairly new system i think its about 2 months old
e8400 e0
msi p45 platinum bios 1.71beta
4g kit 1066 kingston hyperx
palit 1g 4870
huntkey 650w psu
Okay so heres the deal, the computer was running at 3.6ghz, stable for the past 2 months.
I have tried 4ghz with almost every possible combination of volts, but it passed prime 95 for about 36 hours 1 day, and the next have a random reboot
I also noticed that my psu was making this weird whining noise so i just ordered and installed a pc power and cooling 750w.
To my happyness comp booted up at 4ghz and seemd stable enough for 2 hours. (just searching net and stuff) then boom, comp turns off.
okay so i thought maybe it wasnt stable. tried to reboot but to no avail. all i get is about half a second when my fans try to spin up but then it just cuts off again.
i have tested the usual out of box, 1 stick of mem, clear cmos with power cord removed, removed battery for 10 minutes but nothing. Also did the same with the old psu which was working.
All that happends is it trys to start, eg leds everywhere flicker and i mean flicker there is no way i can see what order. Im refering to the 8 leds down the bottom. the flick on then off.
After trying to start it up once, i wont get another chance to start it. eg i have to remove the power and wait till the power is completly gone from the system b4 i can try again and only have the same thing happen.
Thanks for your help guys

Something may have been damaged during overclocking. What voltages did you work on when you overclocked the system to ~4GHZ? What where your temperatures?

Next, I see that you are using a Beta BIOS, what's the reason behind it?
I suppose the reason is this:

I'll be greatefull if somebodu help me,I just wanna overclock processor to 3gHz for every day,not 24/7, maybe 12/7...THANX and sorry for my bad English

hello! I try that,remove both the oc jumper,and I CAN'T EVEN RUN THE BIOS So after couple restarts, i shut down pc and se jumpers to 200-266 mode. Disable what you said,set fsb 260 x multiplier 11,5 and get 3ghz. Some programs seys core 1 and 2 speed 3371mhz? I set cpu voltage to 1.32, little increase the ather voltages... With max load max temperature with core temp is 63c after couple hours. Should I do something to increase more speed or is better to leave it like this? Or try set jumpers to mode 266-333 and decrease cpu multiplier wuth more fsb?
