MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R Northbridge fan too loud !

I have a very quite system, but the Northbridge fan is too loud ! In fact it is the loudest element in my system and I'd like to replace it.
Which fans are there that I could use instead ?

At 6000 RPM almost every fan is loud.........lubricant doesn't help, it's a shitty fan........
Loosing the ridiculous disco light is actually another advantage.....

875P Neo-FIS2R northbridge fan replacement

hey guys...i am somewhat new here. I have browsed the board here and there. I am trying to make my computer quiter but have found that the northbridge fan is very loud. i have read where a lot people of just taken the fan off and left nothing else. this concerns me because i do overclock my computer and dont want extensive heat on the northbridge. i saw a post awhile back about someone found a heatsink tht would fit and replace the northbridge fan on this motherboard. i can not find that post or the type of heatsink. if anyone knows what heatsink will fit i would be grateful. thanks

Leave the heat sink in place and remove the fan. It's there for looks. Read all of

New MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R, WinXP BSOD

I just got and installed the MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R. I have Libranet linux 2.8.1 which I can boot into (fast as heck too). When I try to boot into window, I get a BSOD with nothing very descriptive in it except to try chkdsk /f. I have tried playing with the various bios settings with no luck. Is this an instance where I need to reinstall XP? :(

P4 2.4 533
Kingston PC2700 (DDR333)
Nvidia TI4600
Creative Audigy

Hopefully you DONT have both OS'S on the same partition? Do you. #2 Do you have BIOS option BOOT TO OTHER OS ENABLED? #3 There has been a lot of people having problems with FRESH WINDOWS XP INSTALL and CREATIVE AUDIGY CARDS! If you HAVE REINSTALL WINDOWS XP REMOVE SOUND CARD FIRST!! After you are done PLUG IN CARD, DO NOT USE NEW HARDWARE WIZARD. INSTALL DRIVERS MANUALLY. Then go to creative website and DOWNLOAD PCI LATENCY PATCH!! Other then that WE need more INFO!..Sean REILLY875

MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R support booting from USB devices?

I am building a super computer using the MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R. I would like to either get a USB pen drive, or an external Floppy Disk Drive in place of an internal Floppy Disk Drive.
Does anyone know if this board supports booting from a USB device?

I ordered my board as well, however, they were out of stock and it may be as long as 2 weeks before they get more in. If you don't mind me asking, where did you get yours from? I am VERY much excited about getting this board as I only await the MB and CPU. What all are you putting in yours??
Mine:
MB- Obvious
CPU- 2.4 800Mhz
RAM- 2 sticks, 256 PC 3200 XMS Corsair using dual channel, at first I think I will use the 512 pc3200 I already have though.
HDD- 80GIG W/D 7200 RPM ( May get another to run RAID 0)
VGU- Chaintech TI4200 at 8x w/ 128 DDR
CD#1- 52x cd rom
CD#2- dvd 16x, cdr 48 cdrw24 cdrom 48
500W raidmax Pwr Sup
Koolcases Panther case w/ window and 3 80MM/ 1 60MM fans
For now I will even use the old 3.5 A drive. Just in case.
Red light internaly
Digidoc 5 for thermal monitoring on:
1.cpu 2.ram 3.VGU 4.case 5.HDD 6.other ram 7.chipset 8.dvd for curiousity sake. just curious of the temps they produce. but always able to move it to a more vital area if the need arises.
Will be upgrading to liquid cooling in the future, that way when I am deployed the temps stay in the blue. (HOPEFULLY)

Probems with msi 875p neo Fis2r and network controller driver

Hi guys just wondering if anyone could help me with my msi 875p neo FIS2R and problems with the network controller driver/network card.
I'm running xp on a computer my nextdoor neighbour gave me. I got it working fine with service pack 3 installed but then installed a bunch of windows updates last night and the computer would switch itself off before windows could start. Now I reinstalled xp and unfortunately it does not recognise the network controller/card at all now. I tried installing the intel network controller drivers but it stopped because it said no intel adapter/card was installed/present. Could anyone please help with suggestions? I tried running everest and under newtwork it doesnt list intel network adapters but I'm pretty certain it is. Again any suggestions?

Clear CMOS with your PSU unplugged from A/C power. Then load "Optimized Defaults" in BIOS and retest.
thanks jimi... jack
will try that and post later if it worked... ive never cleared cmos, this sort of thing is relatively new to me but thanks again

MSI 875P NEO FIS2R AGP problems

I have just purchased an MSI 875P NEO FIS2R motherboard and there is a sticker covering the AGP slot which says "Please use only 1.5V AGP cards to avoid pernament damage to this mainboard". However, on the website it says here http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=434
"One AGP slot supports 8x/4x at 0.8V (AGP 3.0) or 4x at 1.5V
(3.3V is not supported)." I want to use 8x agp @ 0.8v and the website says this ok but the sticker on the AGP slot on the motherboard says only 1.5V. Is this a mistake on the website or on the Motherboard and is it possible for me to use 8x AGP @ 0.8V without damaging the motherboard?
I want to use an ATI radeon 9800pro.
Anybody using 8x agp @ 0.8V and have they have any problems?

Assaf IS THE MAN!! His answers are NEVER WRONG.. WORRY NO MORE about the voltage...

MSI 875P Neo FIS2R + 3.4 Ghz Prescott / Northwood?

Hello.
I looked a little around on these pages, but I couldn't find answers to my question.
I have a MSI 875P NEO FIS2R, and BIOS version 1.8. Right now I'm using a 3.0 Ghz Processor, but I would like to upgrade to a slightly faster one. Can I upgrade to either a 3.4 Ghz Prescott or a Northwood 3.4 Ghz without updating my BIOS?
I have seen so many on this forum failing to upgrade the BIOS and thus having a ruined MB
I know there used to be a schematic that showed which processors the diferent BIOS'es could handle.
-I hope someone can help me out.
Thank you in advance for your time

Thank you very much for your reply, I appreciate it.
I can see that my signature hasn't been completly updated, but now I have 2048 MB Kingston memory.
The reason I ask about the processor is, that I would like my PC to perform better in Microsoft Flightsimulator X, and they recommend a 3.6 Ghz processor or higher. But you don't think I'll notice the difference from a 3.0 Ghz to a 3.4 Ghz?
I'm definately not upgrading to just 3.2 GHz, that would be foolish as you say.
I have an additional question, if you don't mind:
I'm also upgrading my GFX to a X1950 pro. But again, Microsoft recommends a 512 MB graphics card, but do you think that I should just go for a 256 MB, or should I get the 512 MB card? Will I notice the difference?

How to disable AGP Fast Write with MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R ??

How can I disable AGP Fast Write with the MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R ? I can't find an option for this in the BIOS !

You wont usually find this option in most MB BIOSES , as the only Option that SOME BIOSES Have is the Option to enable, disable SBA (Side Band Addressing) for the AGP Bus....In order for you to Disable or Enable the FW, You Must have the Option in your Vidio Drivers Controll Panel.....If you have a NVIDIA Card, you Must go to http://www.guru3d.com And Download the program "NVHardpage" and then Open the Program and you wil have the Choice to Enable these options and they will then appear in your Vidio driver CP >> "Activate "Coolbitts" (this is NVIDIAS Overclocking Utility) Activate "Harware Options", and then Activate "AGP Options" and finally Activate "Performance Options"........If you have a ATI Card then you must Download one of thier "Tweeking Utilities".......I will Post the Direct "Link" for NVHardpage in a Minute, just say yes to the Lic. Agree. and download......Here>> http://download.guru3d.com/nvhardpage/ ...........Sean REILLY875

MSI 875P Neo-LSR & Northbridge Cooler

Hi
Hi have a MSI 875P Neo-LSR motherboard and the northbridge cooler is making alot of noise!
I've already cleaned the dust from the fan, added some oil but it stills makes an anoying noise
My question is this:
I don't want to spend €€€ in a new cooler because i'm upgrading my system in a few months so, will my motherboard survive without the cooler? But remaining with the heatsink...
I have a Thermalright XP120 with an 120mm fan in my CPU, which are very close to the northbridge, they might fresh a little the NB... And i got a good airflow in my case...
My MB:

Thank you for your answers!
Do you know the maximum temperature that the NB can get? Or the normal one...
I want to test if it's not getting to hot without the fan

MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R/P4 2.4C/Corsair XMS 3200 Overclock Settings?

Sorry to bother everyone. I'm going to be switching out my Intel 865PERL cause it only offers a 4% overclock, so I'm barerely scratching 2.5Ghz.
Plus, the funky lights on the MSI board will go nice with my all-red lit case. Anyway, back to the matter at hand:
All I've really been able to find online is information geared towards the 865 Neo-FIS2R model and overclocking, plus the stuff on the Corsair XMS PC3200 seems to all be posted prior to JEDEC approving the 3200 standard. So all the overclock info is back when they were using the XMS 3200 with AMD processors and overclocking to reach 400FSB or a bit higher.
I was hoping to get my 2.4C Ghz w/800mhz FSB up to a good 2.7Ghz, maybe even 3.0Ghz. And I want to bump up my DDR as well (I assume I'll have to anyway, and lock my multipliers on the PCI and AGP ports?) I have an ATI Radeon 9700 Pro All-In-Wonder.
I wasn't sure what I should set the DDR to (I have 2x256MB modules that will run in dual-channel)
I use Artic Silver III or 5 Thermal Paste, and I have six case fans (one top blowhole, one side window, two front intake, two rear pushing air out, plus PSU, CPU, northbridge, etc.)
While I've built systems for quite a few years now, I'm fairly new to overclocking and wasn't sure where I should begin? Thanks for any help with settings advice!

Alright, while I wait for the new memory to arrive, I decided to get a headstart on my first overclocking attempts.
I installed the new PSU and set to work. Here is where I ended up:
BIOS SETTINGS
DRAM=333mhz (underclocked 400mhz DDR)
Spread Spectrum=Disabled
CPU Clock=224
AGP/PCI= 67.01/33.50
CPU VCore = 1.5250V
DDR Voltage= 2.50V
AGP Voltage = 1.60V
This setup is stable insofar as it gets my system to boot into windows. I haven't done much else with it as of yet.
If I try a 225 CPU Clock then my system won't boot and I have to clear the CMOS. I tried this with my DDR at 266 and 333 (and it's 400mhz rated and has worked at the speed just fine before, so I don't think it's the Corsair XMS stuff)
Do I need to increase the Voltage to my CPU in order for this to work or is there something else I'm missing? I figured I should be able to get this 2.6 up to 3.0 easy, and was hoping to shoot for somewhere between 3.2 and 3.7 if possible.
My CPU is labeled Malaysia, and I've heard those tend to overclock pretty well. Inside my case the heatsink is cool to the touch, as are my hard drives. Sound Card is a bit warm, but nothing crazy. My ATI card is pretty hot though, although the increase from 66 to 67.01 on the AGP port shouldn't be too bad, and from what I recall this sucker was always hot anyway.

MSI 875P Neo FIS2R

Hallo, i need some help with the memory diagnostics programm from microsoft. Because on my board it shows me errors, and now i want to know if it is my board or the programm.
Link to download: http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp
Big THX

thx wonkanoby,
but i want to know why ms-diagnostic programm doesn't works on my board (i think is not a dual-channel or chipset issue).
hope somewone can test it on a 875p neo board.

MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R / no fan speed

Hello all,
I have the weird problem that i can't see any fan speed in either Speedfan or the bios (v1.7). Any one any idea about this?
best wishes

hi all
yes it has 3 wires. (It worked fine with speedfan on my other mobo.)
Corecell seems to be able to see the speed, but speedfan and the bios seem to have problems with it.
it is a Thermal take Silentboost

MOVED: MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R firewire type?

This topic has been moved to Off-Topic Technical.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=98870.0

I am really interested in this mobo - I've read the reviews on 7 different brands so far, and the MSI offering is in my mind "the duck's guts"!!
I thought that I'd probably go the Asus prior to researching - no way - nasty setup if ya need a screwdriver to install a generic Intel HS&F!!
The MSI takes the cake as far as desirable features goes, from what I've read to date.
I have the money to get one of them, a 800Mhz FSB P4, and a Radeon 9800 Pro.............
But................
I'm in Australia.......
We get the 1337 shite last on the shipping route, although we're closest geographically!!
I need to know:
1. Australian availability - distributers with actual stock!
2. A few users' impressions of this mobo.
3. er, the price (tho' if it's as good as it reads - who gives a fruck!!)
4. Should I get the 2.4g, 2.8g, or 3.0g P4???
5. Is there a particulat stepping to look for?
6. Are they available in Australia?
7. Where?
As you've probably guessed from my nick, I've been running AMD for quite some time - since the 1g/A7V133 days when they had the crown - it's been a downhill run since - just got rid of my XP2600+, after the 2nd Abit NF7-S's BIOS corrupted due to my 1g of Corsair XMS3500 - I mean, get stuffed! I'd already had to get a later revision.........3-4 days prior to them bringing out yet another revision!!
I'm over AMD thanks very much!
Thanks guys/gals

MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R HDD

I am unsure on which hdds to get for this mother board. I want to run raid 0 but dont know if i have to get serial ata or can get ata/100 or, etc....?
Anyone have any suggestions?

Right now, 80 GIG 8M Cache ATA100 / ATA133 drives can be had for about $1 for each GIG of storage, after rebates etc. The same spec drives with Serial ATA are going for about $1.60 for each GIG of storage.
That 60% premium is a consideration. You also should look around at the board reviews out there. A recent review by HardOCP had a comparison of SATA and PATA Raid 0 drives on both the Southbridge and Promise controller. The results were mixed. The PATA drives were faster at some things.
Of course the relative speeds could change with the next BIOS. For me, I went with a matched set of PATA drives and order a 875P board with a PATA Raid controller.
If you can afford to wait. As time passes, the SATA drive prices should converge on PATA prices.
Have fun,
LeRoy
