MSI-6585 (648 MAX) instant restart issues questions pls help......

Hi, i figured after months of specualation i would try to figure out what the hell is wrong with my pc.  12months ago a bought a MS-6585 648 MAX mobo and a P4 2.53ghz with 2x Samsung DDR 333 (PC2700) ram.  I play many games on my pc it seems when playing Counter-Strike + PlanetSide results in random instant restarts.  Occasionaly it will just hang the system but mainly instant reset of the system.  My cpu temp ranges from 35 48 max approx.  
I've tried switching my ram to different slots and so on refit everything but with no luck.  I just have a very unreliable computer atm.  I've reformated plenty of times but with no joy, the odd thing is its random somtimes my pc will not crash or reset it self so this makes it very difficult to figure out what the hell is going on :S
If you have more questions perhaps i can answer them - and give you more info that i have forgotten.
Here are somethings that might be useful:
MS-6585 648 MAX mobo
Pentium 4 (northwood) 2,53ghz 533
Samsung DDR 333 (PC2700)
Gigabyte Maya II Radeon 9700Pro (running in agp 8x)
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum
Bios settings: (things ive changed)
Turned onboard sound off than auto
AGP Apeture size  128
I have 32bit transfer mode running for hdds
I have S.M.A.R.T. enabled
(next week end i will have another 512 ram stick to try just incase its my ram but i have done the intel ram checker and it didn't find any problems)
Any help would be greatly appreciated pls ask any things ive missed and anything else u would need to know.  I really want to sort this out as you can imagine its not very nice having a pc that can randomly crash when u do not expect it.

Overclocking is typically limited by one of 3 factors, assuming you have sufficient power:
1. Memory won't operate past a certain speed, so you run at a different ratio or buy faster memory.
2. Temperature, so you need to add non-stock cooling or better case ventilation or water cooling, depending on how far you want to go
3. CPU - At some point the CPU won't run any faster.
Leave the CPU voltage at Auto. You should only need to raise it if you get into extreme overclocking.
As for the size of the power supply, if you stay with Intel Northwood with an ATX board on your next upgrade, an Enermax 465, Antec 480, or something similar (should cost around $80-100US) would get good choices. If you plan on going with a Prescott on an ATX board, I would look at going to a 550W supply.
Personally, I thing the next 12 months is shaping up to be a real headache in making upgrade decisions in the Intel world. Intel have indicated their next generation of boards will be BTX without AGP support. This looks like an upgrade could mean new case, possibly power supply, video card and possibly ram. I am hoping that companies like MSI will produce a transitional product that allows new processors and chip sets on an atx board. If that doesn't happen I see a lot of people switching to AMD.

    I cant find the reset your security question pls help me

    If you mean that you're aren't getting the reset link as described in the steps half-way down this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312, then that will only show if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account.
    If you aren't getting the link then you don't have a rescue email address, and you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

  • 648 max + 9700 boot issues - help

      hi
       i have a radeon 9700 (rev 1.3) and the 648 max - L and everything is working fine when i am in windows but sometimes when i cold boot i get no screen and it doesnt sound like i am booting up. i do see some hard drive activity but thats about it.  i try reset and sometimes it will work and others not, also when i install a program that needs to reboot sometimes it wont - basicaly the same problem as cold boot.
      i have a enermax 430  and so i doubt it is a psu problem, also like i said when i am in xp i have been able to play 3d games and run 3dmark and have yet to have any crashes.
      anyone have any solutions or suggestions as to what the problem is and how to fix it?
     

    Ok MSI called me back finally, I explained situation and told him that i have read other people with 0209 boards have had the same issues.
    He is cross shipping me a new 648max-L board I asked about it being backordered because of reading this thread and he said it should be shipped today or tomorrow so maybe they got boards in? Or maybe they modified a board that they are going to send me?
    He originally wanted me to send mine back and they would send me out a new one but i told him that i have no place to store the processor for that long of a time and i would be without a computer so he took my credit card number and put a hold of 100 dollars on it, once they receive my old one i will be credited.
    So all in all, i will be getting a new mobo and rev 1.3 radeon 9700 pro and i should be ready to go.
    Here is an email i received from MSI for those of you that are worried about resolving these issues.
    Dear Paul,
      I've just confirmed this with my collegue and he said that the first shipments need to be reworked.  Please send the board over to me directly and I'll take care of it for you.  Please include your address and make sure you get a tracking number for the package.

  • 648 Max warm boot issue

    I have just built my first PC using a 648 Max MB. and I have a problem.
    The system boots up fine from cold start, however it fails to start in the following scenarios, it just beeps once and then sits there with a blank screen.
    # Restart form Windows
    # Shutdown from Windows (system powers off OK)
    # Exit from BIOS with or without saving changes
    The reset button has no effect
    The only way to get the system to boot is to remove power from supply and then restart.
    I note other threads of a similar nature!!!! O Dear
    System loaded with:
    Windows XP Professional

    I think yawmark is in broken-record mode today. Not just today. I keep a fairly large file of
    cut-n-paste responses accumulated while addressing
    the same issues over and over and over.... I'm not at work today, so I have a lot of time to hang out here (too cold to do anything outside), and that particular response about spelling things out just seemed to pop up a lot today (no doubt caused by the posters who popped up today). A file of cut-and-paste responses is definitely a handy thing to have around here...I don't have such a file myself...I only just started here a couple of months ago, but the questions do indeed get repetitive! My cell phone only receives SMS messages--it doesn't have the capability to send them--so I don't write any SMS messages. Even if I did, I can't imagine why people think it is okay to abbreviate everything here into SMS-speak.
    yawmark, good luck on your test! Thanks!!!You're welcome!

  • Hard Drive Question pls help

    Okay my situation I am getting a MacBook for my graduation gift and im doing my research and I am customizing my MacBook through
    http://www.colorwarepc.com/
    and they offer a 160Gb Serial ATA hard drive rpm of 7200
    but on the online store apple only offers hard drives at the 5400 rpm
    now obviously rpm of 7200 is better and I don't mind forking the extra cash out for it either
    now my questions
    Why doesn't Apple offer hard drives at the 7200 rpm rate?
    If I purchase a MacBook through Colorwarepc will the original Mac warrenty still excist?
    And will the hard drive be a Apple made product, now I checked to see the make of the Hard drive on the Apple website and colorware website both are said to be Serial ATA... now I don't know if that is the maker or just some jargon
    please help me
    Thank you
    Looking    

    There is no 7200 RPM 160 GB notebook hard drive. The fastest at that size is 5400 RPM. I think the drive you must be looking at is a full size drive for desktops. Notebook hard drives are mostly 5400 RPM although there are less expensive models that run at 4200 RPM. Only Seagate and Hitachi make a 7200 RPM notebook drive in a 100 GB capacity. The new 160 and 200 GB notebook drives are 5400 RPM. They are also pretty expensive.
    Apple does not make hard drives. The hard drives in Apple computers come from different manufacturers. Seagate, Toshiba, Hitachi, and Fujitsu are the main suppliers.
    Serial ATA is a type of interface not a drive maker. Intel Macs all use SATA drives.
    As far as warranty is concerned the warranty is good as long as the retailer is an authorized Apple retailer and the computers they are selling are not gray market. Personally I know nothing about the company.
    If you are a college student (currently enrolled) or your parents are elementary, secondary, or university faculty or staff you can purchase Apple products directly from Apple at an academic discount.

  • 1607 error in itunes--further question. pls. help me

    hello!
    after going through a lot of troubles and a whole bunch of errors, I managed to get through the ipod set up process ...and i'm now trying to install itunes and it gives me the 1607 error...so i'm trying to follow the instructions (from one of the threads here) to fix this error and it says:
    Fix
    To fix this issue, you need to determine the version number of the IsScript engine you need, download it, and install it.
    1. Delete the folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Driver from the machine.
    2. Right-click on the installation file that you are trying to install and select Properties.
    * The typical names for installation files are setup.exe, update.exe, installer.exe, etc.
    * Your installation file can be found on the CD where you are running the setup from.
    step one tells me to delete the "driver" folder. now,
    step number 2 is a bit unclear to me. where do i go to do this step?

    Hi,
    If you are using GUI_UPLOAD in 4.7 then the file path whatever you are using currently it won't work. Replace the file path like this.
    P_FILE LIKE RLGRAP-FILENAME.
    DATA: V_FILE TYPE STRING.
    V_FILE = P_FILE.
    Now take this v_file for function module.Then only it will open the file otherwise you won't get unable to open file error message.
    I observerd that you are getting so many fields from the file to the internal table.

    You can do as suggested already and use interface nodes and cross component mapping; but that is all really not necessary.  It creates a situation where you calling application is too dependent upon the freely programmed input help.  You want to try to avoid the situation where the calling application needs code or mappings to communicate with the input help.
    That is easy to do because the framework passes all the information you need into the freely programmed input help via the value_help_listener object. 
    Part of the Freeley Programmed Input Help Component should be the component interface IWD_VALUE_HELP.  This comes with a component controller method called SET_VALUE_HELP_LISTENER.  This allows your freely programmed value help to capture this object called listener of type IF_WD_VALUE_HELP_LISTENER. I generally just store it awa into a component controller attribute.
    With this listerner object you have direct access to the context attribute in the calling component. You can query information about the calling UI element and of course set values directly back into it.  The listener is a hugely helpful object and should be the way you interact with the calling component whenever possible.  Here is small example:
      set single attribute
      wd_this->value_help_listener->f4_context_element->set_attribute(
      exporting
        name = wd_this->value_help_listener->f4_attribute_info-name
        value = l_time
