MSI 8891 Board - Software CD

I can't find the software for the MSI 8891 video card ( GeForce 4 MX440 w/ TV IN/Out 128 Megs)
In fact the support pages don't even recognize it on a search. I do not have access to the CD. Can anyone help me out here?
Thanks.

Is it a MX440-VT8X128?
Looks like you did the same Google search as me!

Compatibility between MSI i7 boards and Corsair DDR3 RAM kits?

Similar issues from other posters: Thread 1, Thread 2
Are there any known compatibility issues between MSI's Intel i7 boards and Corsair's 1600 DDR3 triple-channel kits?
My brother's machine (which has been discussed here before last time I tried to fix it) is still having trouble, and also uses the same type of RAM as the two threads above. The symptoms are:
1) Occasional lockups, followed by a reboot
2) Inability to POST: the machine will try numerous times, rebooting each time (as in threads 1 and 2), followed (eventually) by the POST saying "the previous overclocking has failed and the BIOS is reset to default settings" - as in thread 1. The machine will then (normally) boot. Reducing the RAM speed increases the chance of a successful boot, but the settings don't stick (presumably they are wiped when the BIOS is reset to the default settings). Cold boots (after the machine has been switched off overnight) tend to be the most likely to fail.
Any ideas what could be causing this, if not an incompatibility with the RAM (in 3-channel mode)? Dropping down to one stick stabilises the system, but at the expense of dropping to a mere 2GB of RAM.

Out of seven MSI X58 boards, none had a problem with Corsair sticks. With the 1600's running at 1066, they should only require default (1.50v) auto voltage. They should also work using settings of 1N 9 9 9 24 without issue. As the CPU IMC only natively supports 800/1066, your particular CPU may have a limitation of working any higher. But, something is not right within the system if it will not run the RAM at 1066. To rule out a bad stick, test with just one in the black A0 slot, & swap it out & test the other two individually. As far as DRAM voltage, if all the sticks check out ok, try raising it to 1.55V. Keep the forum updated on your progress.
Added: Make sure 'Spread Spectrum' is disabled in bios Cell Menu, as well as 'Extreme Memory Profile' if your bios has it listed.
Are they 2GB sticks? (All the threads in question use the 2GB sticks - one 3×, and one 6×)
Back around the time I tried the BIOS flash as the solution, I Memtest86'd each of the sticks individually in the MSI-recommended slot for a single-stick configuration, and each tested perfectly. Part of the advice given at the time was to disable XMP and Spread Spectrum; they already were.
Whilst I can't be certain that the RAM is the problem, at least three threads on this board now are using 2GB Corsair 1600 sticks and having strikingly similar symptoms...
I'll try investigating the voltages later today. Thanks!

Looking for information on an MSI OEM board made for Acer

I am looking for some information on an MSI manufactured but Acer branded 780i chipset motherboard. I had an EVGA 680i chipset based board that was on the way toward dying and, not wanting to do a full upgrade currently, was able to locate and purchase a refurbished MSI 780i board. Upon receipt of this motherboard, I found out that the board is an OEM board based on the P7N Diamond (MS-7510) and manufactured for Acer. I have no idea which model Acer computer this board may've been used in.
Does anyone know of this board or have any information on it? The number listed on the board is MS-7510B0909417034.
Would I be able to use normal P7N Diamond bios updates with this board?
Also, the board I purchased came with onboard sound rather than the X-Fi add-on card that came with the retail version of the P7N Diamond. Should this on-board solution work with the normal nvidia HDMI audio driver? If not, can someone tell me where to locate the driver for this onboard sound?
Thank you for any assistance anyone may be able to provide.
Sincerely,
- Byron Followell

MSI 7125 board and Esata drive hot swapping

Hello. New member with a MSI-7125 board. I have the OEM board that Geeks had. Pretty much the same as the regular 7125. I want to use an external eSATA drive and attach it using a simple eSATA bracket that just connects to the board's internal sata ports, or I will use a PCI controller card. I'm told that either will work, and that I can have hot swapping on either too. I want to be able to turn on and off the drive without turning off windows. I don't want to use the external drive as my main drive. Can anyone confirm that either interface method will work? I'm supposing the simple bracket might be faster since it will have no PCI bus to go through. Thanks

I've listed below a couple of sites that you may be intrested in. They offer the option of using eSATA or SATA on the rear plates. Don't confuse them as they use different plugs on the cables.

Which MSI desktop board for new INTEL 1270.v3 build

Gents:
Intend replacing faithful legacy AMD965 system with an upgraded version of last years build:
INTEL 1240.v2
MSI Z77a.gd55 BIOS 1.2
NV 660 + 27" Auria
2x 1T HDD + 24-Gig Crucial ram
Running Ubuntu 14.04LTS .. which system supports both simulation & Apache OO software. This newer build listed above has performed flawlessly W/O brickworthy BIOS update.
I have limited finance, non-gamr and am VERY risk adverse. I intend the new build to run an INTEL 1270.v3 CPU. I trust MSI products, but cannot find reference/review to a desktop MSI motherboard to support this CPU and support it OOTB! Any clue appreciated.

I have never understood why BIOS chips aren't all pop-in/pop-out replaceable. Then a screwdriver and $30 check to BADFLASH would update the BIOS with the threat of bricking a system that might take weeks/months to reconstruct. That's just panding to DELL/HP/LENOVA/MS & a bad attitude from the mobo manufactures.
I will take your advise and look for recently manufactured boards, tho getting a serial number from NEWEGG or TIGER DIRECT would be like getting a Lords-prayer from Beelzebub!
Quote from: XFM on 04-November-14, 14:34:22
I can't recommend any particular MB for you but can just say do some research on MSI website for Z87/97 MBs for BIOS vs CPU support. Also keep in mind that recently manufactured MBs will have the later BIOS on them from the factory. You can determine if the MB you decide on has a later BIOS from the serial number if the store you buy it from will provide you the S/N (from date code in S/N) when purchased. Flashing the BIOS if needed isn't quite as bad as it might seem if you ask for help on this forum before attempting to do it. There's a right way and wrong way to do it and using Live Update is by far is the worst way, instant expensive paperweight is the usual result by using Live Update.

MSI P965 board and 4 gig memory....

Does the hardware on the P965 Platinum board support 4 gig memory? MSI says "up to 8GB memory size (with DDR2 800, memory only up to 4GB)" and it sounds good, but did anyone actually tried four gig or more with this board?
It's not related, but my T60p laptop shows only three gig when four gig is installed; I just don't want to buy memory for nothing twice in one month...
Thanks,

I am not saying that I fully understand the whole adress space thing. I just tried to share what I have understood from reading about the whole 4gb matter so far.
Here is another example of what I tried to point to in trying to offer an explanation on the basis of the assumption that this is not really some sort of bug:
http://members.cox.net/slatteryt/RAM.html
Thanks for the link and most certainly I don't fully understand the "whole address space thing" either. I still say that my tech (I need to ask him tomorrow) did call Lenovo and they did say that the current hardware does not support more than 3.2 GBs of memory. Here's another link from UK that discusses this issue. Quote from the link:
"So if you chose your motherboard wisely/flukily, all 4GB will be available to you. However, if you're unlucky you'll find your memory map looks like this:
Address      Contents
0x00000000 - 0x3fffffff   Memory
0x40000000 - 0x7fffffff   More memory
0x80000000 - 0xbfffffff   Even more memory
0xc0000000 - 0xffffffff    Memory-mapped devices
0x100000000-0x3ffffffff   Where the *?#! did my last GB go?
Notice that only 3GB of the 4GB that you purchased made it into the memory map. So that last 1GB is unavailable to you. And don't think you can dust off that old copy of QEMM - this isn't memory which is hiding somewhere, and which you can coerce the OS into using, like in the good old days. Well...the old days. No, this memory is quite simply invisible to the CPU. If your motherboard is in this category, there is no physical way the CPU can get access to that memory. (In fact you'd probably find that the top 4 address bits of the processor aren't actually connected up to anything!)
What's particularly galling is that certain motherboards are advertised as accepting up to 4GB of memory, and yet won't let you use the last 1GB! ("Oh, you were expecting to use all 4GB. Sorry, we only guarantee that the motherboard will work when you put 4GB in.")"
I still blame the OEMs for this and not the software....

Crappy BIOS on MSI 945P boards? Any chance getting better?

Hi all, I've already wrote it on different place but I'd like to know an answer, that's why I write it to a new thread.
I've got two MSI mainboards, both with the same chipset Intel 945P, just the bios differs; one AWARD the other AMIBIOS. Neverthless, both of them are experiencing similar problems in overclocking the CPU.
(1) MSI 945P Neo2-F and Intel P4 630 (Prescott, single core). My BIOS behaves "randomly" after changing the FSB. Other components offer a good reserve of performance and I am sure the CPU too. When increasing the FSB value for more than 15MHz, on reboot the system hangs and the original (200MHz) value is restored. If the FSB exceeds some 224MHz it always hangs and restores 200MHz. That mobo has an AMI Bios. No update seems to be available, as the MSI Live Update doesn't work (the server is probably down).
Even worse it is with a (2) MSI 945P Neo and the same CPU, with an Award Bios. The overclocking is also impossible. When the FSB value changed by just 1-2MHz, the system hangs on reboot and even though the manual claims that after 4 unsuccesfull attempts to boot it will restore defaults it won't. The only way is to open the case and remove the jumper to clear CMOS.
Though there's a possibility to overclock - through MSI Core center. Surprisingly, the same version of MSI CC offers different possibilities for each of the motherboards. (1) is overclockable just like 1%,3% .. 11% while for (2) it offers to change FSB by MHz and without limits.
That piece of software is crappy enough though and it is practically unusable, because on system reboot or power down it randomily (again) restores the original 200MHz FSB value.
I managed to oveclock P4 630 up to 4GHz without any problem by using MSI CC on (2) but annoyed by the issue described above, I decided not to use that kind of software.
According to other places on web, there are more guys around having the same troubles like me with 945P BIOSes, mainly what concerns OC. Here is my question: is there any chance that MSI will release a BIOS fixing this bug? Is there someone responsible for this so that I can report him the problems and he'll put some efforts in solving that issue or working on a new BIOS?
Thank you all who can help!

Quote from: kuni on 30-August-06, 16:19:09
Made some progress in understanding the problem.. I tried all possible BIOses, the FSB-PCIE sync/async didn't show in any of them except the oldest one. (it's a 1.0D BIOS version). When trying to OC with that BIOS, the same problems arose..PC locked up and even clear CMOS didn't help. So I went to our PC custommer service for a help. They changed CPU for a celeron and surprisingly, the PC worked like a charm, even FSB-PCIE sync/async appeared and I am sure there wouldn't be any problems with OC. Then they tried a different p4 630 and the problems were back. So it's obvious that the 945 based mobos from MSI don't deal with some CPUs correctly. I've already sent this to MSI but don't expect a fix for this.. luckily they gave me an ASUS for the same money instead and hope the problems aren't that of intel chipset as a whole but just that of MSI boards.. regards, Kuni.
P.S. if your mobo is still under warranty and wanna try to "hoax" your PC dealers for getting a new mobo like me, I can provide the old BIOS or just demand the MSI custommer service for w7176ims.10D
ok, i have checked the 1.5 BIOS from the link that kuni posted and CPU FSB & PCI-E is indeed hidden, but is set from default to async. all in all the features that are hidden in the 1.5 BIOS are already set at the best settings, so i don't see this as being a problem.

I post with no issues, can get into the bios, will even go as far as a stop because of no operating system loaded if I let it.
But if I try to install windows XP Pro SP2 Windows stops at -
Setup is Inspecting your configuration
I have:
Removed and replaced all parts individually with reboots after each step with the same result
Replaced all parts (except the CPU and MB) individually with the same result ( yes I had spares)
Removed the vid card and run with on board VGA with the same result
followed the steps on the MS website dealing with the issue with the same results - Bios was already at 5.1 so could not update
I am unsure what other options i have left at this point
Kind regards

Get a decent PSU with single rail, that means only one +12V line on the PSU, and to have high amperes on the 12V line 30A or more are recommended.
Look here as well:

Is your problem caused by your PSU?

MSI X58 boards bad chipset cooling - with proof and fix proposed for high IOH

Hello,
First of all I like MSI boards this is not an anti marketing thread. I own one and with a FIX I don't regret buying it.
I will go straight to the point, the cooling of chipsets on the MSI Eclipse/PRO is totally disastrous. Here is the proof :
Since we see this problem all around, and never "good" response from tech support, here it is - in color. You can't deny it.
I will stay with constructive remarks - the TIM or thermal paste violet is dry and hard as rock ! The bolts are not strong enough also, and doesn't center the heatsink firmly on the north bridge. So if for everyone with high temps of IOH this is why. Please stop telling us that from Intel spec it is OK since it's specified to go up to 100°C. Mine was about >85°C and after a replacement it is under 50°C. Heat causes instabilities and long term wear damage to any chip.
It is a problem of engineering. Bad TIM was selected. MSI will not admit it since it will cost too much to take back all theese boards.
Heat dissipation is so bad as if there were no heatsink on the chip.
Nothing is perfect, if it was MSI would send me a free tube of MX2
MSI Eclipse SLI FIX - will work for other models certainly
Needed :
Thermal Paste - Arctic Cooling MX2 (Non conductive, long run, one of the best)
Optional :
Heatsink - Thermalright HR-05 / IFX
Tighter bolts, plastic screws.
How to:
-You need to take off the heatsink that cover both northbridge aka IOH and southbridge.
-The heatsink "DrMOS" over VRMs doesn't get that hot. The TIM on it is like straps and doesn't really require replacement.
If you don't have tighter bolts or screws, you can use existing and add some rings on it to heighten the pressure that will need the heatsink. Warning : If you use metal screws be sure to use a spring or it may do serious damage to the chip.
-Apply a small amount but enough of thermal paste to cover the violet rectangle of both heatsinks. Replace them on the board.
How to (with heatsink replacement) :
Your IOH will go down 40°C. Yes you've read right.
-With this method either you need A) to loose one part of the heatsink, B) or loose two SATA ports and will not be able to use SLI with long cards but for majority of people it will be fine and provide tremendous cooling performance to south bridge also. You can also buy a second heatsink if you wish to keep original untouched but I couldn't find any that would suits the board dimensions or provide improvements for the southbridge.
A)If you don't care about the original heatsink, you will need to cut the two heatpipes. Cut it near the southbridge. It doesn't need high cooling as IOH. Apply thermal paste to it and install the new Thermalright heatsink on the northbridge chipset.
B)You will need to bend the heatsink ! It seems extreme but well works in fact. Bend it towards you and try doing it gentle so it is exactly at 90° angle :
-Before installing it, clean the small heatsink of the old violet "thermal paste". Apply the new thermal paste on the chipset. Now we can install the heatsink but upside down. It seems extreme again but it exactly fits. It won't apply weight pressure on the board since it touch the plastic IDE connector. Warning : be sure, absolutely sure that the heatsink doesn't touch any electrical components.
-Mount the Thermalright IFX and your done.
Here are picture of the final board, and with a mounted system :
(Clic on pics if you need high resolution picture)
The case is an Antec 1200. With modified +5V voltage on fans and with lowspeed enermax fan on processor it is whisper quiet.
Temperatures with overclocked BCLK at 175 MHz :
Idle/Load : IOH : 45°C / 50°C
Idle/Load : System : 35°C / 39°C
Idle/Load : CPU avg : 38°C / 67°C
Now this board is a jewel - impressive low power consumption, very high overclocking capability, stability.
Please MSI, fix your TIM and retention system. Maybe for the new eclipse will it be good ?
I hope this thread has cleared some questions and helped.

hi guys , just an add on to evr999 thread, ive also now changed both n/s bridge heatsinks, with excellant results some pictures for you all to look at.

Playing Sound Locks SMART Board Software

Several teachers at our school just got new Lenovo T520's with 64-bit Windows 7. We have SMART Board Interactive Whiteboards and run SMART Notebook software. When sound is played by this program, the program locks. I have been in contact with SMART Technologies, but we cannot tell what is going on. This is what we know:
- sound works on other programs
- Conexant audio drivers are up to date
- the SMART Notebook program works on other machines
- on our other Lenovo's (T510 32-bit Win 7)
- some other 64-bit Win 7 machines, various manufactures
- disabling sound enhancements doesn't keep the program from locking
- generic Windows sound drivers don't keep the program from locking
SMART Tech suspects something with audiodg.exe, but we can't figure it out.
I don't know if anyone on these forums uses SMART Board, but I thought I'd ask for general suggestions as we are clueless. any help would be appreciated.

Yes, we got this problem resolved on our computers. I don't know if it's the same on yours, but for us it was that our Lenovo's came pre-loaded with Corel Win DVD. This program has codecs that contain errors. It affected other program as well. Linked sound in PowerPoint would not play either. That may be the same issue you are having with your pdf files.
I suggest you uninstall any program from Corel or ULead as it uses the same codecs.
So the bug turned out to be neither from SMART or Lenovo, but from a third company who's programs just happened to be present. This was long and difficult to sort out, but had some great help from SMART Tech. You can follow the tread at the SMART Exchange Forum, which I suggest you join, if you have not already.

Interesting, I registered my Corel software DVD software which was suppose to allow me to get updates etc. However, the service packs they have for it are not allowed for the OEM versions. Clearly there are updates but we cannot install them when downloaded from Corel. I flags the version is not supported.
I suppose the solution is to purge the Corel software and invest in supported software which can be patched. The release installed is not the latested and they don't provide updates directly. It must be maddening that this is the case of your grief.
