MSI 865PE VGA problem wrong color

I have just purchased a new motherboard, the MSI 865PE Neo2-FIS2R. Now all the colours on the screen are wrong. Example: In a window in Windows XP, the white has turned black and the text is still black. All other colours are wired. I have updated the BIOS and drives for the motherboard and the VGA card and nothing seems to help. I have then tried to change the VGA card to my old Geforce 2 and it worked perfect. I used to have the Winfast card working with a Soltek SL-75FRN-L motherboard and it worked perfect. What can the problem be and how do I solve it,
does any one know??
CPU: Intel P4 2800 MHz FSB800
Motherboard: MSI 865PE NEO2-FIS2R
VGA Card: Leadtek Winfast A250 LE TD MY VIVO 128 MB
Power Suppy: Thermaltake 420W
Ram: Kingston DDR433 PC3500 2x256 MB HyperX
HDD: Raid with 2 DiamondMax Plus D740X 60GB Fluid
DVD: Asus DVD-E616
CD-W: LiteOn LTR-40125S
OS: Windows XP

Hi again,
Have you tried updating to Win XP Service Pack 1 yet?
Else, you may want to try this weird method as some gave a shot and the problem's solved, but not to everyone...
Boot up using the the cards that work, next, shutdown com(do not un-install drivers), put in the Leadtek card, boot up and see if there's the original 16bit colors with 800 by 600 res screen while starting up windows, if it does, try installing the drivers for WinXP/2000 by manually selecting the location as XP has a problem in detecting XP's VGA drivers, restart and see if problem persists.
All the Best... :D!!!

  • MSI 865pe neo2 problem with IDE2 slot

    My MSI 865pe neo2 motherboard isn't recognizing any devices plugged into the IDE2 slot.  I originally thought it may have been the cable (I used an old cable pulled from my P3), but even with a new IDE cable nothing gets recognized.  Is there some trick I'm missing, or maybe is the slot broken?  Would updating the BIOS do anything?  Any help appreciated.

    Thank you very much, that was it.  I'm not very familiar with working with BIOS so I wouldn't have even known to look for that until you mentioned it, then I took a look in the bios section of the motherboard's manual, and saw it under the integrated peripherals section under On-Chip IDE Configuration.  It was set on P-ATA + S-ATA, so I changed it to P-ATA Only and it worked like a charm.
    One further question-  if I later on buy a S-ATA hard drive, would I need to change this setting again?  Would I have to give up the IDE2 slot to use an S-ATA connection?
    Thanks again!

  • Msi gt780dx vga problem

    My 570m is burned and screen is full of objects. So i bought this NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470M N11E-GTS-A1 1.5G DDR5 MXM 3.0b VGA Module QS  from e bay. It boots ok in windows but cannot detect it. Nvidia drivers dont support it at all

    Quote from: Makoy;114500
    Yes i already asked for return, probably different bios in cards. I asked msi for help to see where i can find a new or used card
    i peferr you to buy brand new, dont buy used ones since used ones may hold shorter :/ so best is to buy brand new instead.

  • MSI 865PE NEO2-V showing wrong RAM timings

    Hi
    I have a MSI 865PE NEO2-V motherboard with Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2 DDR-DIMM 2048MB Kit w/two matched CMX1024-3200C2 DIMMs now and try to put the timings of the RAM to 2-3-3-6 in the bios.
    According to http://www.corsairmemory.com/corsair...h_results.html it should work ok...but its not.
    When i check the timings with CPU-Z it shows 3-4-4-8 instead.
    The SPD is 3-3-3-8.
    I have checked so they are in Dual channel and i have put the RAM voltage to 2.75V after i tried with the default voltage, but to no avail.
    To be extra certain i ran Everest Ultimate and it showed the exact timings.
    The RAM run fine with StressPrime and Prime95 but i get bad results in SiSoft Sandras RAM benchmarks.
    What is going on????

    Hi
    Yeah, it get slow results.
    I have a Intel Prescott 3.2Ghz with FSB800.
    I see now that the link uses Java script, its in Corsairs search engine on their site.
    Their recomendations for the set of RAM i have is: TWINX2048-3200C2 / DDR-400 (XMS-3200C2) / 2-3-3-6 .
    I have tried to set the timings as you said but it still runs at 3-4-4-8 whatever i set it at.
    I have it running at 2-3-3-6 on another motherboard so i think it must be some settings in the BIOS that i set wrong on this one, but i cant figure it out.
    Could it be that somethings wrong with the Performance Mode (MAT) settings?
    I tried it on and off, I have also reseted the BIOS to default and even removed the CMOS battery for a while.
    I paste all the info from the Corsair site here:

  • Problem with NIC and Firewire on MSI 865PE NEO2-PFISR

    Hi, I have lots of trouble getting the network adapter on the MSI 865PE NEO2-PFISR to work.
    The NIC's LED indicators doesnt even light up when I plug in a network cable,
    and in windows (win 2003 server) it doesnt find the adapter at all.
    The NIC is displayed in the bios, and I have the option to disable it,
    but it is enabled.
    I have even reinstalled windows 2003 server to try to get the NIC to work.
    I have upgraded the bios to v3.8 via live update, with no problems, although the
    firewire-option on the same page in the bios is still gone, it doesnt detect the
    firewire at all(!).
    I have also tried several other NIC's (a 3COM 3C905B TX and a 3C905B TX XL
    PCI adapter). The 3C905B TX worked fine for a while, and then it started saying in
    windows that a network cable was unplugged, and began to try 10mbit, 100mbit
    lots of retries, now it doesnt work at all.
    I swapped tp-cables and changed the ports on the network switch (which there is
    also other computers attached to which doesnt have any problems) and that didnt
    made any difference.
    It seems that the whole pci bus is long gone, and maybe the onboard NIC is
    attached to this same pci bus?
    Strange also about the firewire-controller which isnt detected anymore.
    The USB devices work, and even a 3com usb wlan adapter works well.
    I have tried to reset the bios several times without that making a difference.
    Anybody have a clue to point out here?
    Cheers!

    I returned the motherboard to the reseller and got a new motherboard as a replacement. This doesnt have all the same problems. At first it didnt post at all, indicating to red lights on the diagnosis.
    Then I was so pissed I hadnt touched the computer in a week, and just tried to use it a few days ago, and it seemed to work all ok. I used it for a few hours, and then it locked up.
    When I powered it up again, the lights on the integrated adapter was out. At first it seemed to work to take the agp card a little out of its slot, as if it was unaligned or something. Used it for a few more hours.
    Then I plugged in the sound cables (5.1 sound with 3 cables), and with the last cable, the network darkened out AGAIN!!
    In the bios it still indicates that the network is enabled, firewire is enabled etc.
    I twisted the network cable, and for a few microseconds I get a orange light, not the usual green light. Now this has stopped too.
    I see other also have problems with these symptoms so I guess I've got another black monday card.
    I will return this card too, and ask the reseller to get a card of another brand.

    -Generic Floppy Drive (sentimental reasons )
    The system seems to be running (ie no post beeps) but I'm not getting any signal sent to the monitor. I've tried running it out of the case with only the video card connected to the mobo, cleared cmos via battery and jumper settings, and the same thing still happens.
    Anyway, I've been talking with other guys on another forum too, but we haven't gtten it to work.
    http://www.techsupportforum.com/showthread.php?t=53044
    I'm going to try clearing the cmos again because apparently the battery must be out for several minutes, whereas I roughly did one minute. If the mobo has no ram connected, there should be post beeps, right? If so, I better check the case speaker connection again.
    Thanks for the help.

    I tried removing my RAM and powering -suprisingly no beeps . So make sure its not a faulty RAM, try another one

  • 865PE Overclocking problem with video card

    Hello, this is my first post, so I just wanted to say hello to everyone.
    I just bought the following equipment
    P4 2.8c (stock cooled)
    MSI 865PE LS motherboard
    Kingston HyperX PC3500 2 X 256MB (dual channeled)
    Geforce 4 TI4800 8X AGP 128MB
    Sparkle 400W Power supply.
    My problem is, when I overclock my processor, to a moderate level (3.1 GHZ)  I get hieroglyphics and different colored textures placed when playing games (battlefield 1942) and when benchmarking in 3dmark.
    What is the cause of this?  Maybe a AGP voltage issue?  Im new to overclocking and do not know much about the video card side to overclocking.
    Thanks for the help,

  • 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! :(

    OK. i have the 865PE Neo2 LS.
    After a long of reseach, i can say that this mobo rocks!!!, but u must know exactly what u r doing....
    I strongly suggest to have BIOS V1.5 !! (I flashed from 1.3, in which there was no
    support for Hyperthreading..)
    Follow this steps exactly (if u have at least DDR433, if not reduce fsb to match your memory specs)
    1. Disable Dynamic Overclocking (DOT)
    2. Set DDR frequency to 333MHz to obtain the 5/4 CPU/Memory FSB ratio
    3. Set DRAM timings to auto (SPD) if u dont know the correct specs. If u do disable SPD and set them.
    4. Note : MAT is automaticaly disabled in 4:5 mode (You can set Performance = Slow, but even in Ultra turbo
        this is the same-not actually wotking)
    5. Increase the Vcore from 1.5225 to 1.600 volts (safe up to 1.8)
    6. Set CPU FSB=271MHz (this runs the DDR at 433 (216.5 x 2), go lower if your DDR is less than 433)
    7. Set AGP/PCI ratio fixed to 68/34. If you go higher u may have problems with
    sound and VGA card.
    Save and ReBoot !!!
    Note2:
    DOT is crap (It works if u dont overclock at BIOS and the max FSB increase at General level is 10%)
    MAT is also crap compared to a CPU FSB of 271 and DDR @ 433. (MAT offers 5% max improvement in memory bandwidth)
    which is nothing compared to the above FSBs.
    Note3 : NB temp is invalid..ignore it
    Go see for your self my benchmarking results at :
    http://stefanos9.topcities.com/Downloads.html
    (Download pc1 and pc2 ppt)
    IF you reach to 5400 in memory bandwidth, then the bottleneck is eliminated. From 5400 and above is the same.
    Check memory bandwidth benchmarks, they are above the 875PE with intel's MAT/PAT !!!!

  • 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.

  • My "MSI 865PE Neo2-PFS Platinum" Is not working

    I have an MSI 865PE Neo2-PFS Platinum and it has stopped working properly, I'm fairly sure that the problem is coming from the motherboard however I would like another person opinion.
    Basically everytime i try to play a game it works for about 5 seconds then comes up with a bluse screen telling me to check Windows has needed to shut down because there has been an error and that it could be caused by drivers or that I need to disable BIOS caching and shadowing
    So far I have tried disableing BIOS caching and shadowing. Changing the RAM around and using different modules. I have formatted the Hard Drive. Tried using a different graphics card. Reinstalled the BIOS. Uninstalled all the drivers and tried different ones.
    None of this has made any difference.

    Since you already have reformated/made a fresh OS install, here´s some things you can try…….
    - Set dram voltage to 2.7v in bios
    - Use Driver Cleaner when uninstalling VGA drivers
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3214.html
    - Install latest IntelInf driver

    - Install Nvidia VGA drivers
    If that don´t help……………
    - Try another VGA card
    - List 3,3v+12v amps on PSU

    My eyedropper started picking the wrong color!  I ahve reset and reinstalled PS - and still have this problem.  No matter what color I click the eyedropper on, it picks a shade darker than what I want.  Anyone have any ideas?  Like I said, I am running PS CS6 on OS Mountain Lion.

    Apart from your Photoshop needing updated to at least 13.0.1, the problem may be that your RGB document, which you're sampling in Photoshop, does not have sRGB profile and/or your Web browser is not colour managed and/or your computer is not using a correctly calibrated monitor profile and/or something else.
