MSI 760Gm-P21(FX) PCI-E Frequency problem

I'm having difficulties maintaining a constant PCI-E frequency. AMD Overdrive always shows it to be 60Mhz (and It should be 100Mhz - if I'm not mistaken). Always - meaning at any BIOS settings - overclocked, underclocked and/or 'Optimized Default'.
So I got a letter from MSISupport saying basically that PCI-E frequency on my board is in fact proportional to HTLink frequency. Then I overclocked NB Frequency from 2000 to 2020 hence HTlink frequency went from 2000Mhz to 2020Mhz and fortunately got a reading of 101Mhz by AMD Overdrive.
Now it's all good exept for the fact that I can't overclock the system for gaming (by raising FSB and lowering HTlink and\or NB Freqency) sinse Htlink being set to anything other than 2020Mhz (giving me PCI-E Freqency of constant 101Mhz) - is for some reason set to 60Mhz.
Another thing that really concerns me is the fact that you can completely damage the videocard if PCI-E is set above the default 100Mhz. To add - you can really see the difference between 60Mhz and 101Mhz while playing the latest games (which is why to begin with I buit my PC).
Here's my PC:
AMD Athlon x3 450 (3.2Ghz overclockable to 3.6)
MSI 760Gm-P21(FX)
2x2Gb Kingston HyperX 1333Mhz (overclockable to 1600Mhz @1.6)
Sapphire Radeon HD7770 (OC)
250 Seagate 7200RPM 2.5"HDD (SATA)
Coolermaster Extreme Power Plus 600 PSU (160fps on OCCT PSU test)

well it says in the bios menu 'version 17.12' - on the download page it's called H.C.
oki, its right one, but i noted that H.D official is already out:
http://www.msi.com/product/mb/760GM-P21--FX-.html#/?div=BIOS

and what would be the point of flashing it if it won't add the PCI-E control?
it may help with OCing eventually, its for your review. if don't want dont try it

Overclock AMD Athlon II X2 250 on MSI 760GM-P21 (FX)

I want to overclock AMD Athlon II X2 250 on motherboard MSI 760GM-P21 (FX), integrated video card from motherboard and MS-TECH VERTIGO 520W 80+ power supply.
But before buy this power supply I had a NoName 400w.
And when I oc on NoName PSU after 3,3 ghz I receive BSOD.
How to oc more than 3,3 ?
Ty.

The CPU itself would work just fine up till the current draw exceeds the limit of CPU VRM (Voltage Regulator Module) and fry it. Even tho it's listed as supported don't use CPU over 95W and even then under heavy loads for longer periods of time a 95W CPU could possibly cause damage also. If using a 95W don't OC it any. The VRM on the 760GM was never intended for 125W CPU.
The only reason the 125W CPU is listed is because competing brands show support for them and MSI made the wrong decision to list them also just for competitive marketing purposes.

Windows 8.1 Driver For MSI 760GM-P21

My Motherboard is MSI 760GM-P21. My Motherboard has build in ATI Radeon 3000 Graphics Adapter. I Want Windows 8.1 Driver For ATI Radeon 3000. Is It possible To Get The Windows 8.1 Driver For ATI Radeon 3000 ?....

Since AMD did not intend to provide Win8.x support for the 760GM chipset thus drivers weren't available.
The final support is Win7.

Msi a55m-e33 motherboard won't boot up

Currently bought new parts to install to my rig but they won't boot up??
Motherboard: msi a55m-e33
cpu: amd a8 6600k
ram: hyperx 1866mhz 8gb

Quote from: badboy2k on 21-July-14, 13:19:05
first suspect is the BIOS on the board! for that CPU it needs at least Version B1 (11.1) for a Richland CPU to be supported...
if you do not know what BIOS version your board has tell us the Serial Number of the board so we can tell you if thats the issue or not? (that is on the UPC label on the box it came in or on a sticker on the rear of the motherboard!)

BRAND NEW MSI x99s Gaming 7 Won't Boot, Debug Code 00

Just completed my build and my pc won't boot. Everything plugged directly into the psu is working but fans plugged into mother board don't spin and getting debug code 00 nothing displayed on screen.

Hmm ok.
What you could do is: try each stick on its own, in every single DIMM slot. Make note which slots/sticks work or dont work. Then add to 1 (known to work) RAM stick and try moving this single one around all DIMMs again. Do the same until you get a failure or if works fine.
Which slots did you use by the way?

I then added the 4th one back in and now it boots. Any ideas why just switching those 2 positions would change anything??
Maybe for the first time it didnt go all the way down?

MSI H61M-P21 (B3) - Won't start, how can I update the BIOS?

Hello Everyone!
I just bought an MSI H61M-P21 (B3) Motherboard along with Intel Celeron G530 Sandy Bridge (2.4 GHz) and 1 DIMM of 4GB DDR3 1600 KingMax. I use NJOY 500W true power as power supply. The system starts but no image, no beep code, nothing... Testet with another DIMM of RAM (4GB DDR3 1333 KingMax), but no luck. Tested with another power supply (450w true power), no luck again. I have tested the motherboard out of case, put on an antistatic surface, no luck... Reset CMOS, same situation: no image, no beepcodes... On the Main BIOS Chip of the motherboard is a little sticker on which is written "E7680IMSH30" - i guess that the motherboard comes 'shipped' with 7680vH3 BIOS.
Is there a possibility to update the bios without replacing the CPU or send the board to RMA? I'm almost sure that the problem is around here...
Thanks in advance! Any answer is welcome!
P.S.: I appologise for my bad english.

Good morning.
I've tested the motherboard this weekend with another DIMM of 4GB DDR3 1333, ThermalTake PSU (500W, i don't remember the model) and Core i3-2120 CPU - those components were taken from another IDENTICAL motherboard H61M-P21 (B3) with same version of BIOS. Didn't worked... I have tested my Celeron CPU G530 on the functional H61M-P21 (B3) and it's working...
So, there is a problem with my mainboard, i will send it to warranty.
Thanks a lot. Have a nice day!

MSI P965 Platinum, system won't boot only when ICH8R is in RAID

So I couldn't get my system to boot properly when I have the ICH8R in RAID 1 mode.
I have the boot drive on a single, non-raid Wester Digital 250gb Cavair HD on the ICH8R.
Installed XP Pro SP2 with the ICH8R in IDE mode. I installed in IDE mode beceause I was unable to install XP on my single drive when ICH8R was in RAID mode. I installed XP in IDE mode, did all driver updates, then put the ICH8R into RAID 1 mode for my other data drives and the system will post, start to boot and get to the Windows XP boot screen then the system just restarts before the boot completes. It does it in normal boot mode and safe mode as well.
With the ICH8R in IDE mode everything boots/runs fine.
The problem is, I need the 6 SATA RAID controllers on the ICH8R as I have 3 RAID1 arrays.
I've done all the updates to windows, motherboard bios, Highpoint RocketRaid bios update, tried every mode on the ICH8R, unplugged the Highpoint Rocket Raid, left it plugged in with no drives plugged in, disabled the Jmicron controller, everything I can think of.
Any help would be appreciated.
I did not do the windows floppy driver install for the ICH8R when I installed XP, but I have not had to do that in the past with the ICH7 on my old motherboard so I assumed I wouldn't here as I've been told it's just if you are installing windows on a RAID.
System:
MSI P965 Platinum
Intel Core 2 Duo 6400 CPU
(4) 1gb OCZ Gamer Extreme DDR2 PC6400 RAM
Windows XP SP2
High Point Rocket RAID 2300 PCI Express x1 RAID card
Asus nVIDIA GS7300 PCI Express Video card
Drives on ICH8R Controller:
Boot Drive: WD Cavair 250gb SATA2
DVD: Some sony 16x DVD - SATA
RAID1: (2) Seagate Barracuda 320gb SATA2 HD's (setup on previous motherboard on Intel ICH7 Controller)
(2) Seagate Barracuda 500gb SATA2 HD's
High Point Rocket RAID 2300 Controller:
(2) Seagate Barracuda 500gb SATA2 HD's

The problem that you are having has nothing to do with your mainboard.
Once you decide to install Windows XP SP2 when the ICH8R controller is in IDE mode, Windows will give you a bluescreen once you switch to RAID mode after the installation is done because it is to stupid to change to the proper driver. Consider this as normal behaviour.
You have basically three possibilities:
1. Reinstall XP with integrated SP2 and integrate the Intel ICH8R RAID drivers using a floppy disk
The latest drivers can be found here.
As I understand, you have already tried that. I if you don't feel like trying this again, have a look at this:
2. Slipstream Intel ICH8R SATA RAID drivers using NLITE or XP ISO BUILDER and try to install again with a self-made install CD that already includes the proper drivers (no floppy needed)
Use google to find one of the tools I mentioned. The procedure is free, perfectly legal and easy to do. Guides for this can be found all over the internet
3. Switching to RAID mode without having to re-install Windows XP
If you are still using your existing installation, that was done when the controller was in IDE mode, the follwing trick may work for you.
I posted a little guide on how to switch from IDE to AHCI mode without having to re-install XP. Have a look at the guide. The procedure is essentially the same for RAID. The only difference is the content of the REG-File that you have to make.
Guide: HOW TO switch from IDE to AHCI mode without having to reinstall Win XP (GUIDE)
Use the following content for the REG file instead of the one I put up in the above thread:

MSI GT70 ONC-008US - Won't boot properly

For whatever reason, my laptop refuses to boot properly now. For awhile it just had a problem booting from sleep (no image on screen, seemingly working otherwise), so I avoided doing that. It also did this when trying to power on the laptop, but this problem was fixed ignored by simply holding the button and trying again.
It now it wont boot, despite the number of times I might try to make it. Nothing appears on the screen at all, sometimes my keyboard back-lights come on but now not even that happens. I don't know what to do. The hard drive (I think it's the hard drive?) makes a sort of clanking sounds a couple times and then goes quiet, occasionally making small beaps. USB devices power up per usual.
If you know what might be happening I'd be eternally grateful. My only guess is that the hard drive is failing, but wouldn't the screen still show something if it was simply the hard drive failing?
##UPDATE:## After trying a million times it finally booted. I still want to figure out what is going on. Please help

I've contacted at least three computer repair shops in my local area and all seem to think it's the motherboard. FML
It sucks. But it should still be under warranty from MSI. I would contact them to be perfectly honest.

MSI MegaPC 651 - System Won't Boot (Long Beep)

When I attempt to power on the PC I recieve a continuous beep signal.
The Beep is approx. 8 seconds long, followed by 5 seconds of silence. The signal keeps repeating itself until I turn off the power.
Obviously, the system is not passing POST so I can't get any video or access the bios.
The cpu is a P4 2.4ghz 533fsb.
The memory is a single 512mb DDR 333 chip.
I've plugged the CPU into a second motherboard and it appears to work fine. I've tested the ram in the second mother board and it appears to work fine.
I tried a stick of DDR400 ram from a known-working system and that did not seem to correct the issue.
One thing I noticed in another similar thread is someone mentioned that i should make sure my CPU fan is plugged in.
~ My Fan is plugged in (came with MSI Barebone), but it doesn't spin. I've tried plugging in the fan that came with my CPU and that one doesn't spin either. My Intel Board that i use for my desktop allows me to boot without a system fan plugged in, I've never heard of a mobo that doesn't. The system isn't even on long enough for the CPU to be over heating.
Please Advise.

It is a memory issue. There is something weird about this motherboard...
I got the system working, and i couldn't figure out what i had done differently. I then installed windows.
I let it run for a few days until i realized that the RAM that was in there was the DDR 400 ram from my other desktop, instead of the DDR 333 that I had intended to use.
I took the DDR400 out, and put the DDR333 in and again.... BEEEEEEP. (8 seconds)
I put the DDR400 back in and still... BEEEEEEP. (8 seconds)
I know neither stick of RAM is bad because they have both been used successfully in my other desktop system upon the first try. Its like the MSI has some sort of connection problem in the memory bank, and I lucked out on one try and got all the connections to line up.
If anyone has any suggestions, please advise, because I'm back to square one again.

MSI P35 Neo2-FR Won't Boot From CD

Just received my new board which aside from the problem, is fantastic! It's an MSI P35 Neo2-FR
I've got DVD drive to first in the boot sequence and it prompts me to press any key to boot from CD however when I press any key it just hangs on press any key. Got some advice from a friend and he told me to load optimized defaults however it doesn't make a difference.
Help?

Quote from: Sharp on 24-February-08, 00:09:47
Hello,
Could be a few things.
Make a list of everything that you are using with the board so that we know what you have.
EG, look at the bottom of my post.
Do you have a floppy drive?
http://www.memtest.org/download/2.01/memtest86+-2.01.floppy.zip
- Extract all the files to a folder.
- Run the install file and it will create a memtest boot disk for you.
- Then boot from the floppy disk and let the program run for a while (4 hours+)
- If it detects any errors instantly stop and report back here. (or try 1 stick at a time)
CD or USB versions available here.
http://www.memtest.org/#downiso
But it is important that we know what else you are using with the board.
Could be a weak power supply or you are using different branded memory modules.
And did you plug all the power connectors into the board?
- 24pin ATX
- 8pin +12v EPS connector
- Molex near the first PCIE x16 slot.
Just incase this thought has crossed your mind,
Do not attempt to the flash the BIOS until you know the system is 100% stable/working
Molex near PCI-E X16 slot? I didn't plug that in no. What's it for may I ask?

MSI K8T Master2-FAR won't boot!!

Ok, I have the Athlon 64 FX-51 with the MSI K8T Master2-FAR. I have one gigabyte of REGISTERED Memory (Corsair), 500W Power Supply, 120GB Seagate SATA HDD, DVD, DVD-RW, FDD, & 250MB Zip Drive. Everything is (as far as I know) installed properly, but when I try to power it up, it doesn't start up. Nothing will come on the screen, but the fans spin properly, and the motherboard speaker beeps at me (telling me something is wrong). ANY advice will be graciously accepted.

Wow, that sounds like a killer system. I have not had a lot of experience with this motherboard, so my ideas here are going to be pretty general. The speaker beep is a POST message: the number and length of beeps should correspond to the failed check when starting your computer. You'll want to check in the mobo manual for a chart of post beeps and the associated failures.
Otherwise, you can check your video card to see if it is working. Make sure it is firmly seated in the AGP slot, and make sure you have supplied the additional power connector (needed for most high end graphics cards). Also, try removing one DIMM (stick of memory) and see if it boots that way and try moving around the remaining DIMM if it still wont boot.
Similar problems often occur when your system does not recognize or support the RAM at SPD settings (or whatever you set them to last). Clear the CMOS and restart if you have changed the settings yourself (this will put them back to the defaults). If you have not changed the memory timings, you could try booting up with other memory modules, and then swapping them out after you have gotten the system to boot (this might be difficult since you need to find registered modules).
More information would be helpful... post the current over your PSU drive rails. Just saying that it is 500W is not enough.
As long as your CPU fans are moving, you shouldn't be damaging anything by trying different things. However, when you stop and restart your system, always wait for a little while for the power in your PSU to dissipate (you should hear a "PZZT" sound). Otherwise, if you keep starting and restarting your computer, you may blow something up.
Good luck!

MSI X99S Gaming 7 Won't Boot

Hi -
I just recently purchased an X99S motherboard. I put it all together, and all was fine for about 24 hours. I updated the BIOS and then started running a defrag and left the machine on while I went to work. When I got home, the machine was off. It's not responding to the power button the board or on my case. If I turn the power off on my PSU and turn it back on and hit the power switch, I get a split second flash of lights and then nothing. I initially thought that it was my power supply so I bought a new one. I got that installed and same thing. One thing to note is that the MSI LED up by the 24 pin connector is on red. I've already tried the secondary BIOS and I have removed all of the memory except the DIMM in Slot 7. I haven't yet tried to remove the board from the case yet and tried it on a non conductive surface. I just wanted to get some thoughts on that debug LED that is currently on. I believe the motherboard has just died, but wanted to run it by someone first.
Here are my specs:
Board: MSI X99S Gaming 7
Bios: Version 14.7
VGA: MSI GTX980 Gaming
PSU: EVGA 1000 Watt G2
CPU: Intel Core i7-5930K 3.5GHz
MEM: Corsair Vengeance 2666 4x4gb CMK16GX4M4A2666C16
HDD: PNY 256GB SSD
COOLER: Corsair CWCH60 Water Cooler
OC: None
OS: Windows 8.1 64bit

Take it out of the case, place on non conductive surface (wooden table, motherboard box) and run it then. Also try with single RAM stick in every RAM slot.
Try clearing CMOS >>Clear CMOS Guide<<
Also make sure all power connectors are properly fitted in.
What way did you update the BIOS? Also was it successful?

Re: MSI X99S XPOWER AC - won't boot - debug code 67

tried the psu on another board with same power cable and works fine,

Quote from: dae.hansen on Today at 12:24:47Turns out the Kingston RAM is ECC, which is unsupported by the i7 CPU. Bugger.
Thanks for the help.
Non ECC is max 8GB per stick as far as I know.
Glad you got...
