MSI 865PE Neo 3-F + Intel P4 640

Hello,
I have a problem with a MSI 865PE Neo 3-F motherboard combined with an Intel 640 cpu.
I cannot install Windows XP SP2, everytime at 35 minutes remaining, the computer resets itself.
First I had bios v5.0, and couldn't flash to v5.2, after using a Intel 520 cpu I could flash to v5.2, but the problem remains.
Tried several ram-modules, hdd, vga-cards, psu's, ...
Anyone know if there is a solution for this ? Maybe a new bios-version or beta-bios ?
Thanks,
Jan

Two things you could test;
Run memtest86 for any mem.errors ( you can do this by creatings a DOS disc and boot from floppy )
http://www.memtest.org/#downiso
Not sure about the 410w chieftec - Is that a ATX2.0 PSU with 24pin connector ? ( 12v1 =15amp + 12v2=18 amps)
Do you use a 24-20 pin adapter ?
If I´m correct, your MoBo still got the 20-pin MoBo + 4-pin cpu powerconnector, and too be sure about the power issue, I would have prefered a PSU with some 450w and a singel 12v line with minimum 22 amps on the 12v line. The newer P4/ Prescott cpu´s needs a lot of 12v power.- Be sure that both 20pin and 4pin are firmly in place on the MoBo.
Most highly recommended PSU´s are Enermax, Antec, Tagan, OCZ, but there are others as well as long as you avoid the cheap ones -
PS - about mem.voltage it would be 2.7v not 1.7v as you wrote, but assume this was only a typingfault.

How to connect dual channel ram on a msi 865pe neo-2 plat.edition ?

hi....
can any one tell me how to connect the RAM as dual channel on the MSI 865PE Neo-2 p Platinum Edition ?
i did like what is written in the manual but nothing happened it only works as a single channel....
the RAm is 2x512 spectek DDR400 PC3200....
pls help me.............

Franknputer is right.
All systems that I build for my gamers runs in Dual Channel and the combo is 1 + 3 or 2 + 4 or 1 + 2 + 3 + 4. 1 x RAM in Channel A and 1 x RAM in Channel B minimum will give your Dual Channel Linear Mode message during startup and you know that you are running Dual Channel.
Next, it is always recommended to have the same make and model and capacity of the RAMs if you want to run in Dual Channel.

MSI 865PE neo-2p, d bracket, code not in book

well suddenly my MSI 865PE neo-2p is not working, no beeps, no screen tuning on, and the d bracket2 is all wierd
lights 1 and 2 are going red and green like a schoolbus
lights 3 and 4 are red
board is out of case (on a wooden piece of wood) and the problem still percists
i have everything but the d bracket and power wires going to the board disconected
i also tried a diff PSU, no change

What I'd do is to strip off the system completely and only put CPU, and then RAM, and then display.... one by one, and see how far the system goes.
Try this
1. board + CPU --> 3 long beeps, indicating no RAM --> your CPU is fine.
2. board + CPU + RAM -> 8 long and short beeps, indicating no display, --> your RAM is fine.
3. board + CPU + RAM + display card --> see the POST screen --> everything is OK.
4. add in HDD --> detected in the BIOS --> everything is OK.
5. add everything else --> detected in BIOS --> everything is OK. Continue boot to Winblows. See anything missing.
If you can't even get out of 1, 2, or 3. Try clear CMOS.

MSI 865PE Neo-L high temp readings?

Hello..
When my system is off for a couple of hours and then i boot up my system,and go directly into the bios,my CPU temperature is already 40-45C° !!! :O
And even my cooling block isn't hot then(not even warm).
Also in windows with the MSI software i get those high temperature readings.
Only with speedfan,the temperatures are more normal.
Is this a know issue that MSI boards have high temperature readings ?(
CPU is a P4 2.6Ghz FSB800
(system is not overclocked)
Thanks in advance! :D

ok,first of all thanks for the reply's guy's!!!
My system specs :
MSI 865PE NEO-L (duh :D )
P4c 2.6Ghz FSB800 with boxed cooler.
Maxtor 30GB 7200RPM
2x256 DDR400 ram
GF4 TI4200 64mb
Q-tec 400W dual fan.
DVD drive (lite-on 16xdvd ,52cd-rom)
CDRW drive(lite-on 52-32-52)
As said,with corecenter or other MSI software almost directly 45C° Even the heatsink is not warm then.
(stressed 58-60C°)
Speedfan gives me more then one temp..
HD0 : 23C° this should be the harddisk temp i think.
Temp1 : 29C° this should be the system temm or case temp.
Temp 2 : 42C° this should be the CPU temp.
All these readings are IDLE temps.
And i think those are the wright temps...
(ps,sorry for my bad english,if you don't understand something,please ask :D )
And Naviblue,nice overclock you got there!

URGENT! why msi 865pe(6728) doesnt support intel celleron 1.7 cpu?

why msi 865pe(6728) neo2-s doesn't support intel celleron 1.7 cpu?
all other 865 chipsets support intel celleron cpus but msi mobos not ! why? or is there any way that i can run mobo with celleron 1.7 cpu?

yes, we have tried. yesterday i bought a new mobo for my friend. he has celleron 1.7, when we start the system it does nothing also the d-bracket colors are
OO
OO
O:red that means "the d-led will hang here if the processor is damaged or not installed properly! "
the same procesor is workings with no problem on his old board!
is there any solution that you can suggest? as i sad all other 865 chipsets support celleron cpus! :(

MSI 865PE neo 2 s + P4 Extreme Edition (Gallatin) 3.4 Ghz

Guys,
I am just wondering, if my MSI 865 PE neo 2 s board can run this processor:
* Intel Pentium 4 Extreme Edition processor
* 3.4 GHz clock speed
* 800 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB)
* 512KB L2 cache
* 2 MB L3 cache
* Socket 478
* Supports Hyper-threading
* Gallatin core (based on the Intel Xeon MP) !!!
From the CPU compatibility list:
http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=bios&maincat_no=1&prod_no=543
Only stated supported the 3.2 Ghz Extreme Edition version.
My usual Retailer that sold me the 3.2 Ghz Northwood have just phoned me and offer this processor (maybe some rebate).
Thanks a lot guys for the response.

Check out this for more recent CPU support list:

1.44B Bios for MSI 865PE NEO FISR2

Can any of you mods send this file my way? My email is [email protected] Thanks.
Also, what are the supposed fixes included with this bios?

hi Misdeismo,
I'm sorry but we do not distribute beta BIOSes, with exception though. Usually when particular user has problem and we feedback to MSI, once MSI tell us to give him/her a try on the beta BIOS, there we will send the beta BIOS to him/her. Other than that, we don't. We are a bit conservative on this. 8)
Anyway, we don't stop users using beta BIOS, provided they know the risks and voiding warranty. As you see when users claim he/she has the beta BIOS and willing to distribute, we won't block or remove the threads unless being told by MSI, but MSI never do that.
I'm quite sure some users already have hand with 1.44B BIOS. Probably you can approach them. :D

MSI P43 NEO-F with Intel core 2 duo E2200 2.2Ghz Virtualization Enabling.

As the topic says i bought some new hardware for a server.
The bios version is 1.2 from 061108 , the intergrated network card doesnt work, but thats not my main problem though.
Im trying to find an option to enable full virtualization support since Xen complains when i try to install a windows machine in opensuse.
I cant for the life of me find an option to enable it, and i guess it has with the version of my bios todo since neither the motherboard or the cpu is old and should support virtualization.
Can someone confirm that a bios upgrade will give me this option? and can i use the upgrade tool in a windows environment instead of the complicated way of booting of a floppy and install the new bios?
/Regards

Hello,
Virtualization Support should be enabled by default. If you can't find an option in BIOS, there is probably none.
I think the main problem is your processor itself. In Intel's own naming & classification system, the E2200 is not a "Core 2 Duo" processor, but a "Pentium Dual-Core" processor and none of the Dual-Core Pentium CPUs supports "Intel® Virtualization Technology". You can look yourself, here:

MSI 865PE NEO FISR2 Audio not working properly

The audio on my board is not working properly. I have it set for 6 channel and am using Creative Labs Inspire 5.1 Speakers that have 3 inputs that match the 3 output jacks on the mobo. However, its just not right. It is sending anything to all 5.1 speakers and also to the proper speaker at same time. So every sound is coming through all speakers and it a tad louder on the speaker it should be coming out on. Anyone else have any clue as to what setting I can change to correct this or is this something wrong with the cmedia drivers?

The answer to all your suggestions is yes, already did it and in the demo app the sounds work fine. Its just so odd, I may just go to Circuit City tomorrow and buy another set of speakers and see if it is possibly them that are causing the issue. Then if so, I'll just return the Creative Labs ones as I just bought them 2 weeks ago and CC has great return policy
Actually, one of your questions I did not either understand what you meant or did not see the option Quote
Did you enable the output port correctly - LR to LR, surround to surround, center/lfe to center/lfe
The only thing I see is setting phones, 2, 4 or 6 channel in the cmedia control panel and then I plugged in the proper cables.
