MSI 845E Max 2 RAID Help

I have a Seagate baraccuda 40GB HDD. When i connect it to RAID, it dectect Functional but it give a warning like
your HDD ATA66 or above will downgrade to ATA33 to prevent this goto BIOS setup #2 in DMA setup to configure it.
in this situation, I don't know how to go ?( Please help me.

Ok,
No.1 Are using an ata66 ide cable? (80 conductor)
No.2 Go into the promise bios using ctrl+f and try to set the mode of the drive to ata66.(udma 4 I think??)
No.3 ata66 may be disabled on the drive, you need to go to the Seagate site and download their utility to change it back ata66 mode.
Hope this helps...

Hi!
So I already have 845E Max (MSI-6566E), so I have this prob. In idle 46~48C, and on high use 55~57C.
I think it is bad, because in this temperature can't overclock the system, or not stable :(
And the Intel Cooler, (in the BOX version of CPU) so weak.
So 2 solution we have:
1.) Big copper cooler, with least 6 or 8cm fan.
- can be noisy :-(
2.) Watercooling system
- the best choice (I'm already on making )
- quit
- safe
Just Do It!
Nice Day 2 U Meeen!

Msi 845e max

I cant seem to overclock my p4 1.8a over 125FSB. At this setting i can overclock my memory to 333mhz or 250mhz, no problem there. If i try to overclock any further i get 8 beeps which, when i check out the beep codes, indicates a memory error on the video card which is a Creative G4 Ti4400, not overclocked. All i can presume is there is no way of adjusting the AGP bus which is overclocking the G4 too much!!! Anyone know how to overcome this problem???? ?(

I don't have an answer for you just letting you know that I got my P4 2.0a to 145FSB (2.9GHz) can't go higher. Therefore it's not the mobo it's one of your components.
P.S Add brand/speed of your memory to your signature.

MSI 845E MAX Processor Question

Greetings All,
This may be a silly question, but what is the fastest processor I can plug into the 845E Mainboard? I currently have a P4 2.0 but want to know how much higher I can go.
Thanks for any help :D

Have tried conn. the monitor to my other system, and here there are only degauss when i power my pc up.
Have also tried another MSI TD4200 as I have simular in my other PC. no effect at all...
A friend of mine got same PSU and Monitor and his system also degauss only when he power up the PC.
Have anybody ?? noticed a simular problem before, and if what's the "cure".....

Need MAJOR HELP recovering an 845E-Max board (no post)

Hey guys and gals, I need some SERIOUS SERIOUS help here recovering my old board. I have an MSI 845E-MAX board, and decided to do some overclocking to it. While doing it, I raised the FSB too much, and now the system wont post. So I know what your all thinking, ok, take out your CMOS battery, or clear the JBAT1 jumpers. While ive done that, repeatedly, to no avail. Ive cleared the jumpers over and over, nothing. Taken the battery out for a 24hr period, nothing. Took the battery out for nearly a MONTH!, and nothing. Next your probally thinking, while maybe its bad RAM, Vid Card, CPU, etc. While it isnt lol Ive replaced/tested all the current hardware in other systems and they all work fine. Ive got a defenet mobo problem, and its really pissing me off lol on other boards by other manufacturers, if I put my FSB to high and it didnt post, restarting would put it into default specs, so I could adjust my fsb as needed. With this 845E though, its no such luck, and reseting the CMOS dosent do anything to fix it. Ive also read some posts about other boards who dont even have a JBAT1 jumper, and used an "insert" key method, where they power down, hold down the insert key, and boot up. Decided to try this, and it did nothing. I didnt think it was made for my board in the first place, but decided to give it a shot. IVe also tried reflashing/recovering the bios, by downloading the newest bios (its an AMI i believe) renaming it, putting it to a floppy, and booting the system holding CTRL+HOME to force the update. but it does nothing, and dosent even seem to read the floppy as the little green light dosent come on when i power up. The DVD/CD drive does though, and wehn i place WIN XP SP2 in the drive, it reads it and green light stays solid, so its just the floppy drive im having probs with I guess. Also, i get no beeps at startup, but can hear the hard drive boot and spin. I list my hardware specs below to help
So PLEASE, some MSI guru, help me before I go crazy here! :P thanx a million to any one who can lend a hand.

I do indeed...and yah i get no beeps at all....
but everything powers up fine...hdd spins...cd rom turns on, if i put in a Nic card, the green light comes when a cat5 cable is in it. So it looks like everything is receing power fine, but i just get no beeps at all to signify start up

Help! Problems with 845E MAX HSF seating

have a MSI 845E MAX and a P4 2.8 GHz cpu. I bought a coolmaster L71 for 478 socket type but when I put it on the cpu, the four little plastic white pins that hold the HSF mounting tray in place prevents the HSF from actually connecting with the CPU unless I use a load on paste (which is wrong)
If I take out the pins the HSF sits on the CPU fine but surley this cannot be correct? Has anyone else had this problem or have any ideas why?
I have also tried a mates P4 S478 HSF and it does the same, the four pins seem to stop it touching the cpu correctly.
Party

What's up? I got your Email - I don't know about cutting those pins off. Man, that really sucks those heatsinks aren't fitting correctly. What would be wrong with getting a stock Intel fan/heatsink? They are really cheap. I saw one for $7 shipped. Or get the f/h I have. It's a Coolermaster D14-7H53D. However, if you want to try and cut those pins go ahead because you can always buy a new bracket if it doesn't work. Let me know what happens. Good luck.
Man, you can't say (s)ucks in this forum.

845E Max(6566E) Temp Issue

Any1 who uses this mobo has some temperature issues? Pls post ur idle/full load temperature here n see whether we have some temperature abnormalities...
I'm running a P4 2A Ghz with Volcano 7+ & AS3 applied evenly.
My temperatures are:
idle: 56^C / 36^C (CPU/Chassis)
full load: 67^C / 40^C (CPU/Chassis)
both with an room temperature of 26^C.
What u have with ur temperature? Do share.

Idle: 45C-48C/28C-33C (Depending how hot it is outside)
Load: 49C-56C/34C-36C (Depending how hot it is outside)
Outside Temp is : 32C-38C
My Thermaltake LCD probe displays case temp at 1C-2C higher than the MSI mobo sensor. This leads me to believe that there isn't anything wrong with my mobo's temp detection. )
I have hooked up my Tornado a.k.a The Blowdryer to a Fan switch with H/L/M settings. When I am not doing anything CPU intensive I put the Tornado to Medium fan speed and there is a slight increase in temperature displayed in Motherboard Monitor.

MSI 845PE Max-L

Is there a compability problem between Radeon 9200 Atlantis,P4 2.66 Gig prosessor and MSI 845PE Max-L ??
Memory module is DDR 400 512 Ram,HD is Maxtor 120 Gig ATA 100
Every single component works fine with my other Motherboard ( MSI 845E Max )
but when I try to start these in 845PE Max-L only thing that happens is prosessor cooler spins 2 seconds...then totally silence....I got a motherboard replaced once
already....
I cleared CMOS
tried another graphic card ( Geforce3 Ti 500 )
Nothing happens even with default settings...
Highly unlikely that two broken motherboards has been given to me !?!?!?!
Please someone tell me what to do..
E-Mail,MSN or here at the Boards...
- THX -

"Lower you DRAM Freq to 333MHz and increase you DDR Voltage to 2.7v, thereafter incrasing your AGP Voltge to 1.6v."
Why ? and how ?
cannot go to BIOS..
and I just asked if there is a compability problem...
Danny : no other cooler movement :(
just prosessorcooler spins few times,
there are no shorts between board and case through the standoffs.
I took motherboard out of case ( in case of that )
Whole F****n thing is starting to me off...
Never had this much problems with MSI-boards :(
So,once again ; every component works in 845E max ,same case,same powersupply etc.
Only sure thing seems to be : 2 broken motherboards ! ( god damn )

MSI Why No HT Support On 845e Max Rev1

Please can someone from MSI tell me if there is anyway to update my 845E Max 6566 MB to utilise Hyper Threading. I have the latest Bios Revision 5.9.
In the specs on this website it says that the 845E Max DOES support HT. Yet mine does not have a Bios menu for it.
Is there any way to enable HT short of buying a new MB (which I do not really want to do as I though my current one should support HT).
TIA

Link to MSI site with 845E chipset. Please confirm which one you have.

HyperThreading is ONLY supported under the XP range of Windows......
Has for HARDWARE mods..... be careful!!!!
There is some input from me.........also check the Overclockers section of MSI Forum.....resources there!!!

MSI GNX MAX-FISR P4, RAID Controller

I just ordered and received a MSI GNX MAX-FISR P4 motherboard, and I have a question. My impression is this has a RAID controller, yet P. 2-18 of the manual suggests that I can only connect ONE hard drive to IDE3, the raid controller. THis doesn't make sense to me--by definition a RAID controller must support 2 or more hard drives. Is IDE3 a standard IDE connection and RAID is only via serial ATA?

wonkanoby is right. he and i had this conversation a few days ago. in addition, i called msi last night and confirmed it. if you have 2 IDE drives that you want to RAID on this board, then you can hook one of the drives into IDE3, but you must use an SATA-to-IDE converter for the other drive (and hook it into one of the SATA ports).
i wish they would have clarified that a little more in the product description page on MSI's website. but it's a super board! very easy to set up.

MSI 648 max problems, please help

Just put a new machine together and I am having some problems, hopefully someone can help.
My machine seems to run pretty stable in OS, but dies when any game is played. It will crash anywhere from 2 minutes - 45 minutes in the game. Ive tried several games: C&C generals, unreal2, etc with the same results.
Bios are updated and nothing is overclocked. Win XP is fully updated.

Technical Difficulties
Sorry a serious error occured
Thanks in advance

Well my roomate cancelled the memory test after 12 hours, so I dont know those results.
I do know that after removing 1 of the DIMMS, the machine seemed to be stable playing games.
I sure wish MSI would have stated it only accepted 1 double sided DIMM.. especially when the reccomend Kingston ram, which is double sided......
Me and my roomate BOTH bought this motherboard, while my roomate only bought 2 DIMMS of 512, I bought 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So now it looks like we need to return these motherboards and get new ones... I HAVENT EVEN GOT MINE OUT THE BOX!!!!!!!!
Any reccomendations on an MSI motherboard (or any) that support double sided DIMMS? I am looking for 3 slots...
thanks...
Any other advise on how to get this motherboard to work with all this ram would help too, so we dont have to RMA through newegg....
Anyone from MSI read this board?????
