The problem appears to be the drive (WD WD1002FAEX 1TB).
It is a firmware issue with the HDD (or the drive itself is faulty). WD may have a fix for it. Your revision is possibly a 01 series, & the 05 series work fine. I will search for the thread with the exact revisions details & edit my post with it.

They found that there are two versions of WD1002FAEX in the market. They are with firmware version either 01.01v01 or 05.01D05. The Marvell chipset can detect SATA III (6Gb/s) for the WD1002FAEX with 05.01D05 but only 3Gb/s for WD1002FAEX with 01.01v01.

One thing to keep in mind is that while you'll be amazed at the increase in performance an SSD can deliver over a HD, the two storage mediums work differently, and one of the OS features SSD's benefit from is TRIM. While you've probably seen a lot of discussion and disagreement about that on these forums, this article about the Samsung 840 EVO SSD also goes into how SSD performance changes over time for a variety of SSD's. The narrative is interesting but the graphs are an eye-opener, showing how relatively successful Garbage Collection alone vs GC + TRIM are in recovering full performance. That's the good news.
The bad news is that while activating TRIM is simple, activating it with Yosemite installed has a real down-side. So if you haven't upgraded to Yosemite yet, you might keep that in mind.

Problem with SATA DVD/RW

I use the Plextor PX-712SA's with no issues. However...I do not believe the SATA versions require jumpers. Try plugging them in on SATA port 1 or 2, making sure those are enabled in BIOS of course. Make sure all connections are secure. There have been some issues with these particular drives not operating properly, but it has not been an issue with seasoned system builders, so the problems may be with the builder himself. Usually, Plextors are so good, they'll almost burn a paper plate! Try a different medium, maybe another brand of blank CD or DVD.
You may also want to check Device Manager in Windows, to see if it is listed "This device is working properly"!

MSI GT60 with Vertex 4 SSD - Freezing, won't load Windows only in SATA III port

Hello,
New to the world of SSD's and trying to get my Vertex 4 to be able to operate at 6 Gb/s. I know that in my MSI GT60 that it has to be in port 1 because that is where the SATA III controller is, port 4 is just a SATA II. I was able to update the Vertex 4 to firmware version 1.5 and when it is plugged into port 4, no issues at all. It will run and take anything i throw it while running at 3 Gb/s in SATA II mode. My port 1 currently houses a 500gb Western Digital Scorpio drive.
As soon as i throw the Vertex 4 in port 1, issues arise. Sometimes i get a disk read error right after bios, sometimes it just freezes. On the latest Intel RST for my board, 11.2.0.1006 it can actually boot on occasion but 90% of the time freezes but still only reads 3 Gb/s when it does boot. It does the same thing in version 11.1.0.1006 and any older RST it just freezes or says disk read error and never boots.
I have my bios set to AHCI mode and i have tried the Vertex 4 by itself and also with the WD 500gb in the other port. When i switch back to Vertex 4 in port 4 and WD in port 1, no issues at all. Just trying to see if this is a known issue or anything else i can look at. I made sure to break the RAID 0 and it was a clean install of windows 7 to the drive.
Running on bios E16F3IMS.10M. The Vertex 4 is at its latest firmware as well. I do have one PCI device i can't identify in Windows and thinking it might be the issue but can't narrow it down. I have the Intel RST installed.
I also posted this on the OCZ forum and did their tips as well.
Thanks!

Hi everyone, I've still the problem with my windows 8 or my windows server 2012 installed on disk on vhd file.
I've putted on an other kingston ssd on sata2 and there is no problem! crazy

[SOLVED] Problem with second SATA drive

My laptop has two hard drive bays, and just recently I added a second SATA drive (moved it from my old laptop) to the extra bay.
Now, anytime the second hard drive /dev/sdb has any heavy disk activity, it appears to cause a shutdown of the SATA port for the first drive (/dev/sda)! Though the second drive is still fine, and I can still write to it until the system crashes from the root drive (on /dev/sda) being shutdown.
If I don't mount and use the second drive, the first drive works just fine, and I can pound it with traffic without issue.
I can reproduce this problem by copying large amounts of data to drive 2.
This is when I get in my dmesg when the first SATA drive shuts down:

I have experimented, and found that if I turn off NCQ on the kernel command line in my bootloader (libata.force=noncq), that it takes longer before the problem occurs. Though, if I write enough to the second drive, it does still happen after a while, just greatly reduced its chances of happening.
Is it possible that the old drive (sdb) is causing the problem? I noticed that it is much noisier than I remember when the drive head moves around.
Another curiosity while I was trying to duplicate the problem:
- I start a large file copy from sda -> sdb
- At the same time in another terminal, I do "find / -print"
- When I hear the drive 2 head moving, it pauses the output of the "find" command.
Every time I hear the head move, I see the find output pause. Its almost like the drive seek on drive 2 causes the whole Sata controller to pause while the head moves. Very odd!
Anyone have any ideas? I think the next thing I will try is borrow a drive from another machine, and do the big write to it to see if I get the same results.
If it is of any help, here is some more info on the laptop:

It appears my drive one really is failing. It was the first drive and not the second making the loud head seek sound. I borrowed another drive from a friend, and copied my drive one to it. No problems with the new drive in place.

I have problem with delay in serial port

I have problem with serial port. I have connected two computers by serial port and I need to create program in Labview for transfer strings using start bits and stop bits. My problem is that my program is working quite well ...when I press start bit it starts to concatenate strings and if i press stop bits it stops...this is the purpose of this program...but problem is that it working only with delay...and need that this program dont need delay, because it can only concatenating data depends on delay from start bit....I wana solved problem with delay...I dont want using delay process in my program, but allways when I try to delete this delay it stop works correct
here is my program

Ok this should be simple - if I understand you correctly.
You have the VISA session initialized with read termination character enabled. So reading the number of bytes at port is NOT the correct way to read from the port. Set the read number of bytes to something large (say 4096) and the read will return as soon as a termination character is received (or timeout).
You'll need to make sure the sending device is configured to send termination character on writes (you can set that with a VISA property node) and that you are sending the correct termination character. The default is 0x0A (newline).

Problem with a C/C++ port into Java

Hello,
I have a problem with a small little C/C++ function which I have to port to Java.
unsigned char CRC8;
void CRC8_Init(void)
   CRC8 = 0xC7;
unsigned char Create_CRC8(unsigned char InByte)
   unsigned char CRC8_Count;
   CRC8 ^= InByte;
   for(CRC8_Count=0;CRC8_Count<8;CRC8_Count++)
      if(CRC8&0x80)
         CRC8=(CRC8<<1)^0x1D;
      else
         CRC8<<=1;
   return CRC8;
//************************************************************The problem is that there is no unsigned char in Java. If I use byte I have values from -127 to 127 but I need values from 0 - 255.
Here is my code:
byte crc8;
public CRC8()
    this.crc8 = (byte)0xC7;
public int CreateCRC8(byte inByte)
   this.crc8 ^= inByte;
   for(int crc8Count = 0; crc8Count<8; crc8Count++)
       if( (this.crc8 & 0x80) != 0){
          this.crc8 = (byte)((this.crc8 << 1) ^ 0x1D);
        else{
            this.crc8<<=1;
    return this.crc8;
}When I call the function:
   CRC8 c = new CRC8();
   c.CreateCRC8((byte)55);
   c.CreateCRC8((byte)47)
   byte result = c.CreateCRC8((byte)0); //estimated result should be 200 (result of the C/C++ function)
Is someone out there who can give me a piece of code that works on the same way like the C/C++ function.
Thanks in advance!*

just make sure to use "byte" where you would use unsigned char; most bitwise operations work the same way. and if you need to convert it to an int to display it or something, do what was shown above
this java code
public class CRC8
byte crc8;
public CRC8()
    this.crc8 = (byte)0xC7;
public byte CreateCRC8(byte inByte)
   this.crc8 ^= inByte;
   for(int crc8Count = 0; crc8Count<8; crc8Count++)
       if( (this.crc8 & 0x80) != 0){
          this.crc8 = (byte)((this.crc8 << 1) ^ 0x1D);
        else{
            this.crc8<<=1;
    return this.crc8;
public static void main(String[]args)
   CRC8 c = new CRC8();
   c.CreateCRC8((byte)55);
   c.CreateCRC8((byte)47);
   byte result = c.CreateCRC8((byte)0);
   System.out.println(result & 0xff); // convert to int as shown above
}produces the same result as this c++ code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
unsigned char CRC8;
void CRC8_Init(void)
   CRC8 = 0xC7;
unsigned char Create_CRC8(unsigned char InByte)
   unsigned char CRC8_Count;
   CRC8 ^= InByte;
   for(CRC8_Count=0;CRC8_Count<8;CRC8_Count++)
      if(CRC8&0x80)
         CRC8=(CRC8<<1)^0x1D;
      else
         CRC8<<=1;
   return CRC8;
int main()
CRC8_Init();
Create_CRC8(55);
Create_CRC8(47);
   unsigned char result = Create_CRC8(0);
   cout << (int)result << endl;
}

Problem with distribution model receiver ports

Hi,
I am facing a problem with distribution model.
I am using Distribution model for material classification data. I am sending my classification data using CLFMAS message type to one of the receiver. Again another person also sending classification data to another receiver.
But both objects will run at different times.
Problem is for every run and every change it is creating 2 idocs instead of 1 idoc.
I am able to create an IDOC with my changes for classifications. But it is creating 2 idocu2019s instead of creating 1 idoc. Because of there is another distribution model with same message type with different receiver port has been configured. I.e. reason it is creating 2 idocu2019s and sending to both the revivers.
When I run my changes It needs to create 1 idoc and send to my receiver port. If another person run his job it needs to create another idoc.
So how will I filter distribution model based on receiver port? it needs to create only 1 IDOC ..

Hi kotesh,
A similar issue.
check if this will help.
Do the following:
Go to TOOLS>ALE Development>IDoc Type Development> WE81 and create a new message type and give it a different name - say ORDERS2. Use WE82 to link it to an IDoc Type - say ORDERS05. So now you will have two message types linked to the same IDoc type. Each message type can now be referred in different logical systems without any clashes.
Now you can use BD64 to build your model using message types ORDERS and ORDERS2 without getting the multiple recepient error message.
Then use WE20 to set up each partner profile using your defined output conditions in message control to trigger the creation of the IDoc. Now you will beable to send the same Idoc type to different recepients.

MSI 180 - Problems with Media center III

Hey,
I have a problem with the Media Center III. When I want to watch TV I have to make a automatic scan in both Cable and Antenna. It seems that nearly all of my channels are found under the Antenna scan (strange I have Cable).
Well my problem is that eventhough I set the TV source to Antenna every time the Media center III software have been shut down I have to go into TV -> settings -> change the TV source from Antenna to Cable and back to Antenna to get the channels.
Anyone had the same problem.
Please help, how do I get the software to remember the settings......
best regards
K. Brinkmann

I bought a new MBA and are having problems with HDMI and VGA port

Hi,
I just bought a new mac book air, and at the apple stre they recommended me a mosh mini to vga cabel. I need to use my computer for projector either hdmi or regular vga adapte. The new mba only has thunderbolt, usb, memory/card slot, microphone and headphone ports.
Does anyboody has and idea how i will or how do i connect the hdmi or vga adapaters to the computer. I have been searching on the cables the apple store has available but the end that goes into the computer is not compatible with the ones I mentioned above.
Please any help would be of great help, because I dont know what to do. I think this is a problem with the new MBA.
thank you,

Thank you doubr. So what I need is to buy the thunderbolt cable and the minidisplayport to vga adapter or the griifin mini display port to hdmi tht toothpickproductions recommends, is that correct?
The one I have is a mini dvi to vga adapter and the end that goes into the computer is the same one that the minisdisplayport to vga adapter or the griffin one have, and is too big to go into the new mba. I dont know if I am confusing you more with what I am saying.
check the link below and you will see the ports the mba has
http://www.apple.com/macbookair/specs.html
if you see the ports that mba has, the two minidosplayport that are recommending do not fit..
So, do you know that if I buy the thunderboldt cable will either of the two minidisplay ports fit or I need to buy another adapter for the minidisplay ports??
thank you because I am kind of confused, I did not have this problem with the macbookpro I had before...

Sound problems with back line out port

Hey everyone, I just sent an email to MSI Tech Support, but figure I would post a message here as well. I just put together a new system, but I'm having a problem with the back line out port.
My problem: When I plug in the front panel audio connectors (Left Audio Out, Left Audio Return, Right Audio Out, Right Audio Return) in the motherboard on pins 5-6 and 9-10 of JAUD1, the back line out does not work properly. I get sound on only the right speaker of the headphones.
More info:
- Audio Driver: 5.10.0.5620 (from MSI CD)
- If I instead plug the headphones on the front audio line out, then sound is fine
- Here's the strange part, if I unplug the front audio connectors from the motherboard (and short pins 5-6, 9-10 with the jumpers, obviously), then the sound on the back line out works properly!
- My Windows sound settings are fine
Has anyone heard of this problem? Any ideas/suggestions of what I could try?
Could this be a defective board? Could it be bad wires on the case? Seems unlikely since both back line out and front line out work depending on what I have setup.
Help! :-)
Thanks,
icab

Rear sound problem
Third time this has come up in 1 or 2 weeks.
Steve,
I appreciate the reply, but I believe you are wrong. Yes, I have searched the forum and did find that thread. Yes, I have read the manual. The only thing that it says is: "If you don't want to connect to the front audio header, pins 5 & 6, 9 & 10 have to be jumpered in order to have signal output directed to the rear audio ports. Otherwise, The Line-out connector on the back panel will not function." That's not my case since I want both ports to work (not outputting the signal both at the same time, obviously).
This can't be ByDesign. Either my board is defective or MSI is not following the Intel Front Panel I/O Connectivity Guide correctly. The whole point of having 4 wires for the front panel audio ports, 2 of the wires being Aud_Ret_R and Aud_Ret_L, is so that the audio signal is sent to the front line out and _returned_ to the back line out if nothing is plugged in the front line out.
I have an IBM machine with an intel mobo at work and it works as mentioned in the design guide.
Any other ideas, anyone? I can still RMA my motherboard, but it's a design issue, i guess I'm stuck. I never got an automated reply from MSI Tech Support, so I guess my email never went through. I'll send another email and let the forum know of the results.
Thanks,
Igor

Problem with IPhone 5 headphone port?

My headphones will not work unless I hold the connector in the port, anyone else having this problem? This is my first iphone and I'm new to verizon so I'm not sure what to do? Can they help me at the verizon store or do I need to make an appointment at the apple store (it's about an hour away!) Thanks!

I have a one week old iphone 5 and i have the same problem. Today I wanted to listen to some itunes on my new phone, for the first time. Right away, there was a problem - no sound through those cute new earbuds! So I tried another headset, but it didn't work so it must be the jack.
Here is what happens: When I plug in, sometimes there is sound through the earphone but it quickly stops and goes back to the iphone speakers and then the song on itunes stops playing. No amount of jiggling the jack around or pushing it in farther/pulling it out a bit works to solve the problem. It happens with both types of headphones that I tried.
Obviously it's the port. I looked on the internet and found a guy in Denmark with the same problem with an iphone 4. He showed via YouTube that there are two contacts within the port, one to switch between the speakers and the headset and the other contact for turning itunes on/off. It seems to me that there is a problem with those contacts within the port. He shows you how to take apart the phone (uh no thanks, gosh) and clean the contacts, but that is not something I think I'll try since this phone is brand new.
I am not happy about this.
Do I take it to Verizon (somehow I don't think so because I bet all they will do is send it back) or do I take it to an Apple store? I bought their Apple care thing.

Sometimes cannot start PC: problem with Hitachi SATA Hard drive and K7N2G-ILSR

I have major problem with my 160Gb SATA Hitachi hard drive and my MSI K7N2G-ILSR motherboard. Sometimes the PC can be started, sometimes it cannot.
After I installed a clean build of Windows XP Pro SP1 onto my new hard drive (as the only hard drive in my PC) and install all the necessary drivers, the system runs smoothly. However, after about 2 to 3 weeks, sometimes when I start the PC, it cannot detect the hard drive and hence it claimes that it cannot find any VMI Pool Data (i.e. no OS detected). What makes it really horrible is that, it is like the lottery everytime when I start the PC. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The highest record was 8 consecutive failures (by resetting or by turning the power off and on again) before I can start the machine properly. Also, the system sometimes just crashes in the middle of operating.
I have already sent the hard drive back to Hitachi. Got the same model of hard drive back as replacement, but the replacement has the same problem, except with the replacement drive the PC can be started eventually after many tries, while with the previous drive it is possible that the PC cannot be started until after a few days later.
Also, it seems that my drive can detect either SATA hard drive or PATA hard drive, but not both. (If I leave my old PATA drive connect in the primary IDE channel, Windows cannot detect the new SATA drive.)
Is my motherboard faulty? Can it only use PATA drive?
My PC's spec is as follows:
AMD Athlon XP 2500+
512Mb PC3200 SDRAM (set to run at 166MHz)
Hitachi 160Gb SATA Hard drive on 1st SATA channel (Model #HDS722516VLSA80)
Sony DVD+-RW drive and Panasonic DVD-ROM drive on secondary IDE channel
Use onboard video (GeForce MX)
US Robotech V92 internal PCI modem
SoundBlaster Audigy 2 Player soundcard
Onboard audio disabled
300W PSU
OS is Windows XP Pro SP1 (with all latest security patches up to date)

sata usually faster spin rate, pata is slower spin rate...
that is not entirly correct.
many harddrives just come with different ways to connect them.
the only sata drives i now that spins faster is western digital raptors 10k rpm.
all other is running at 7200rpm.
older drives run at 5400rpm
Yes to get the full benefit of RAID, the Raptors are the way to go.Anything else, no significant difference.

MOVED: Problems with IDE drives being recognized in Vista

This topic has been moved to Vista problems.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=105881.0

This is a known problem with Internet Exploder 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.
