MSI 890FXA-GD65 Shutdown(fans continue)/black screen

At random times as well but usually when I'm playing a game (but not always) the computer will go to a black screen with the fans continuing to spin. Some times my CPU fan gets really loud. I had been using the graphics card and PSU in my old machine with no problems, only after I installed the new mobo/cpu/ram did this problem begin to occur.
When this problem happens I can only turn the computer off with the powerswitch on the PSU.
I saw some other people had this issue but no resolutions were given. Also there's seemed to occur more frequently, mine might go for days with no problem. Right now I'm unsure what the issue is some I'm thinking of replacing the motherboard under warrenty. I waited too long to switch it with the store thinking it might be a driver issue but after having all the drivers updated it still continues.
Windows 7
1000W PSU
MSI GeForce  NTS 460
G.SKILL Ripjaws X F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL 8GB 2X4GB DDR3-1600 CL9-9-9-24 Memory
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 6 Core Processor 3.2GHZ Socket AM3

Hi guys,
I have the same board and I am experiencing the same thing. Random shutdowns after a week or so leaving the computer on. Tried to change everything but the motherboard so as a last resort I am trying the following after this thinking. The 890FXA is compatible with Bulldozer and as you can't have a BIOS for every CPU they must have merged functionalities. Remember this extra Pin for Bulldozer? well it is all about managing power so in my mind I thought that:
1) different power management with BD
2) same BIOS
3) same software developpers
4) same shutdown of the computer (CPU fan still running 100%, no video, ...)
5) same BS from MSI
So I looked into the BIOS and found the Green Power section that I entirely disabled (it also removed the cool VRM Led for the CPU but who really cares?). So far it's been 7 days that my computer is up doing cycles of encoding / decoding TV shows and I'm crossing my fingers. Give it a shot and report please... Hope it'll fix the board!

  • MSI 890FXA-GD65 North Bridge Temperatures

    Hi there I have recently purchased the MSI 890FXA-GD65 for a new build. The thing that suprises me is that the temps on the North Bridge are very random. It normaly stays in the 55 C- 65 C range, but it is constantly jumping up and down in a matter of seconds. For example it goes from 58C to 65C in a second and then could drop to 55C the next second and after that could jump to 70C and it just continues playing. I am wondering if anyone else has the same issue with the readings and what could be the cause of ti?

    I am waiting for a memory at the moment. However the airflow in my case is more than adequate, GPU idles at 30C and does not exceed 50 under load with the fan at 25% of the max speed. The CPU is well cooled with no fans on the heatsink (Thermalright Black 120), idling at 25C and going to 45C under load and overclocked. The RAM modules are very cool on touch as well and my MB shows constant temperature of 28C - 30C. I think its something wrong with the diode, because there is no way that the temp would jump from 55 to 70 in a second and the next second to come back down to 60. I was just wondering if someone else has similar thing with their mobo. I have got 3 year warranty on it so I am not that worried about it, plus it is not crashing or anything, its just the readings.
    P.S. I forgot to mention that this is not detected as NB on any program. Instead on AIDA64 shows up as AUX temperature, and on HW Monitor comes up as TMPIN1, but I read it corresponds to NB usually. Plus this is the warmest part on touch.

  • Msi 890fxa-gd65 USB and video dying after extended use

    Multiple times this has happened to me. I will be playing a game for a while (2+ hours) and all the sudden my mouse, keyboard, and monitor will all black out and shut off. My computer is still running and the buttons on the front of the case to shut the computer off no longer work either.
    I know it's not a heat issue because i touched the heat sinks on the mobo and they are not hot at all.
    I have taken the board and exchanged it at frys; this is the 2nd board so i'm pretty sure its nothing wrong with the board.
    Help me please!

    Why then does MSi mainboard default to this speed?
    Steve64, do yourself a favour and search for RAM SPD profiles on the net. Memory module manufacturers write the SPD information to the EEPROM on the module. Motherboard BIOSes read the SPD information to configure the memory controller. If that SPD profile is not in line with the native RAM speed supported by the CPU, then the board's BIOS will be set to the incorrect memory speed as can be seen in this post. Its an industry design standard (JEDEC) and the memory manufacturer is the cause of the incorrect setting when the user buys an incompatible set of memory.
    The rest of your post has been removed as it adds no value to finding a solution.

  • Multiple Problems with MSI 890FXA-GD65

    I am having problems getting a clean build of new components to work.  The components are:
    motherboard is MSI 890FXA-GD65
    processor is AMD Phenom II X2 565 Callisto
    memory is 2x 4Gb G.Skill Ripjaws X model F2-12800CL9D (CAS 9, Unbuffered DDR3 1600)
    disk drive is a Western Digital Caviar Black WD1002FAEX 1 TB SATA III
    card is an MSI N460GTX Cyclone 768D5/OC.
    power supply is an Antec NEO ECO 620C 620W
    operating system is Windows 7
    All items are brand new, and being assembled for the first time, so nothing is overclocked.
    I have three problems.  First is that the video output is flaky.  I initially thought that the board wasn't POSTing, because I was getting no audible 'beeps' and there was no display output (does this board not have a speaker or speaker header?).  Through trial and error, I discovered that the board was POSTing, but I could not see anything because of a strange video problem:
    If the monitor is connected when the video output changes, then the video will not work, and disconnecting/reconnecting will not fix it. For example. If the video cable is plugged in during a cold start, I will get no video output. If I wait a few seconds until the Bios loads, and then plug in the video, then I get a video signal. However, if I leave it plugged in as the video output switches when Windows starts up, then I lose video again. Only by plugging in and then unplugging during the same video output mode can I use the output.
    I have tried 2 different video cards (same mdodel number) with the same result.  I have tried switching my memory with only 1 stick and with both sticks installed.  I don't have another processor to try.
    The second problem is that Windows will not run with the USB controller turned on in BIOS.  It starts 'loading files' and then just hangs.
    The third problem is that the MSI utility program will not run properly.  I tried to install the updated chipset drivers, but the installation hangs.
    Thanks for any help!!  I am on the verge of returning the board to NewEgg after many hours of trying to troubleshoot this build.

    Thanks for the reply.
    Sorry to be so newby, but where do I start memtest?  The reported BIOS is the same version/date code as what is available from MSI...

    Thanks for the reply.  I am using the DVI output on the video card connected to a VGA monitor with an DVI-VGA adapter.
    No external USB connections have ever been installed.
    I don't have any other DDR3 laying around.  Is there a recommended memory list on the MSI site?  I couldn't find one.

    However its down to the CPU as memory controller is there.
    You should use AMD tested memory sticks

  • Questions About MSI Z87-GD65 System fan Currents!

    Hi,
    I have a few questions on the MSI Z87-GD65 System Fan currents. I want to hook up 2-4 120mm case fans together through a PWM Female to 4 x PWM Male Computer Case Fan Splitter and connect it to one of the SYSfans on the Motherboard, but I am unsure about the current limit on the SYSfan1-3 on the motherboard. Also I was unsure if I needed to have a 4-pin connector or 3-pin connector. On the online manual it says that for Sysfans1-3
    Pin #1 is Ground
    Pin #2 Is Speed Control
    Pin #3 is Sense
    And Pin #4 is NC
    What does NC mean? Do I need a 3 pin or 4 pin connector?
    Thank You For any assistance! 

    NC isn't used.
    The sys fans you only need to get a 3 wire fan for the cpu fans a 4 wire fan would be indicated.
    The amp rating is 1amp I believe.
    If you want to really control and monitor your fans, it is best to use an outside fan controller. I use the Corsair Link in one of my computers which I like, but is overkill.

    Exactly how do i RMA the board? Can I just send it back from where I purchased it?
    Hold up there buddy, dont rma it yet. I have the same board, had the same problem straight out of box. MSI sent out a batch of those boards with the wrong jumper settings. Look on your motherboard near the rear  ios inputs. look for a header labeled jusb-pw2. flip that jumper to the top two pins and clear the cmos and you should be good

    Here is the issue I did the minum connections before putting the computer in the case to make sure it would POST, but it doesn't. The motherboard speaker doesn't make a sound but the 8 led lights on top of the MOBO are all lit. I cant get any response from my monitor when its hooked up to my video card. the fan from the PSU and video cards are spinning but again no POST can anyone help Me with this thank you., also I used a second power supply and still no POST or response from the monitor but again all the fans are working and all 8 of the led lights are lit at the top of the MOBO. once again thanks for your help.

    Good evening!
    All parts are new?
    Use a single stick of memory.
    Recheck all power connections are well in place, and don't forget the one near and for the processor.
    Don't think that is the problem, but for good measure you should also reseat the graphics card.
    I'm not sure whether this mobo has a speaker.

  • Msi 890fxa-gd65 1 beep begins to post then shuts down...help?

    Hey I just purchased a 890FXa-gd65 board this week and have a phenom 2 x4 970z in it with corsair 2x4GB 1333 ram thats made for phenom 2, i looked it up on corsairs website to make sure. Im using 2x XFX 5850 graphics and an OCZ Agility 3 sata 6/gbps SSD along with two WD Caviar blacks. This is a new build, although i tried using a phenom 2 x4 965 originally but had same problem. so, i boot up get a single beep the comp begins to post and then shuts down. vie tried dif ram and now have tried a dif cpu. vie tried using only 1 graphics card at a time and switching between 1 and the other. always gets the same response. i do not have the sad or hard drives plugged in either. originally i was using corsair vengeance 1600mhz ram but thought that was the issue because of the speed being to high so i got some 1333 just to make sure and it still is doing the same thing. i really don't know what to do at this point. in the 15yrs vie been building comps for myself and others vie never hit a brick wall like this. any suggestions? just to make sure i tried running just the board ram cpu and video card onto of the motherboard box it came in, as msi tech suggested....still nada

    i have a corsair 850HX 850watt. Nevermind It turned out after getting a friend to plug some diagnostic hardware into it we found out it was a dud mobo. I RMAed it and after plugging everything into a new board things worked fine. sorry i wasted your time. i appreciate the help you give to people who need it, thanks again.

  • Macbook pro continuously black screening and rebooting-any solutions?

    Ever since upgrading OS to Mountain Lion there have been numerous times when waking the Macbook, it goes to black screen and reboots.  Several times it has rebooted then immediately shut down and rebooted again.  I am also running Paralles 9 which I needed to install after upgrading to the OS 6 operating system.  Has anyone else had this problem and is there an easy fix?

    You might try this:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • MSI 890FXA-GD65 Info Needed

     Hi All,
          I willing to purchase the 890FXA-GD65 motherboard after checking out its features and price. I would like to know if this board supports Crossfire at                  full 16x/16x bandwidth. Please suggest some websites to know about the full 16x/16x bandwidth crossfire and capable AMD motherboards.
          Also, please tell me the notable feature difference compared to the 890FXA-GD70 motherboard and also to the new 990FXA series motherboards.
     Thanks....:D

    Well, seems that there may be some inconsistency on the website with regards to the AM3 and AM3+ classification then:
    When selecting AM3+ socket boards only the 990s are filtered. See here.
    Thus my earlier response. Apologies if that was incorrect.
    Also found the following information which may explain it.
    Quote
    Difference Between AM3+ and AM3 Socket
    - Socket AM3+ socket has an extra pin
    - The AM3+ motherboard will have bigger hole. This increased the current carrying capacity and eases processor insertion into the motherboard.
    - The bigger hole also increase the signal integrity as has been claimed.
    - The clips to hold the fans have improved design that will make the CPU cooler.
    - AM3+ sockets are backward compatible with the AM3 sockets
    - If you have invested in the older AM3 socket consult your motherboard manufacturer. Probably a BIOS upgrade will make it work with bulldozer processr.
    - Bulldozer processors require AM3+ socket, but a AM3 socket may also work with BIOS upgrade. Check with motherboard manufacturer.
