MSI B75MA-E33 does see 2Gb of memory from 4Gb

My old m/b is dead (Gigabyte GA-H55M-S2). My 2 x mushkin Essentials 2Gb DDR3 1333MHz was working fine on that m/b. I decided to purchase replacement MSI B75MA-E33 + i3-3240. Specifications says that this memory is supported.
But BIOS see only 2Gb. I tried to switch memory sticks between ports with the same result. Any suggestions?

Socket looks OK. CPU was reseated. Still the same.

  • Will increasing the memory from 4Gb to 8Gb make a big difference to the speed of my Intel Core Duo 2 Mac mini?

    Will increasing the memory from 4Gb to 8Gb make a big difference to the speed of my Intel Core Duo 2 Mac mini?

    Well, technically no, CPU will remain the same speed. But having 8 gig will give you some room for memory hungry apps and run better with multiple apps.
    Adding a SSD drive will give a second life to your macmini. I did mine a few weeks ago (240 gb SSD ) and also went from 2 to 4 gig ram. It's like having a new computer!
    Good luck!

  • MSI B75MA-E33 SPDIF

    Hello,
    Does anyone know if its possible to add a SPDIF optical connection to this board without an extra PCI sound card?
    I use the board in my HTPC and want to purchase a surround system but the one I want only has an optical input!
    Thanks in advance
    Paul

    The tech specs do not state a SPDIF connector for this board.
    Your 3 options are:
    1. See if you can still exchange the board for one that has SPDIF
    2. Get an Audio card with SPDIF
    3. Get an AMP with HDMI in

  • Memory: Installing 4GB DIMM with stock 2GB DIMM

    Hi there, if I wanted to install more memory to a Mac Pro 4,1 (8-core, 2.66), currently with 8 GB of memory (four 2GB modules), would I be better off installing 4GB DIMM, to save slot space so I may eventually upgrade to 32 GB? Or is it not wise to install 2GB DIMM memory with 4GB DIMM memory on the same system?

    You can mix and match, so to speak, as long as you install the RAM minimally in pairs. See this:
    About RAM installation in the Mac Pro
    Mac Pro memory arrangement photos
    Mac Pro Memory Configuration
    Memory Tests- "2008" Mac Pro
    Ram should be installed minimally in matched pairs and optimally in matched quads. This means the memory modules are the same size and specifications. They should also be equipped with the Apple-certified style of heat sink.

  • Problems of MacPro 2010 Mixing 2gb & 1gb memory together

    Actually my MacPro 2010 12-core was running 8x1gb sticks before.
    I just got 4 of 2gb sticks memory from a friend today.
    And I do have problem mixing them with the original 1gb sticks.
    Only plug 2gb sticks in Slot 1,2,5,6 - No Problem
    When I have 2 x 2gb sticks in Slot 1&2, 2 x 1gb sticks in Slot 5&6 - Still No problem
    However, when I have more them 4 sticks installed in the system, no matter when the combination is(sure I'm talking mixing 1&2gb sticks together), the MacPro just don't can't start and keep the front LED flashing.
    So I just want to know anything I did wrong? Is that tri-channel can't run with mixing size of memory?
    I know that's not good to mixing the memory in MacPro, I just want to know the reason behind(why it doesn't work), any advice?
    p.s. 1gb module 1Rx8, 2gb module 1Rx4 (<- would it be the main reason?)

    thanks for the advice
    Both 1 & 2gb sticks are 1333 ECC, the only different thing is "Brand & Size" and "Organization", the original apple 1gb is 1Rx8, and the 2gb is 1Rx4. I heart that different organization mixing together will have a huge chance doesn't work properly, and I guess I'm having this issue right now, haha
    I work on CS5 a lot, however 12-core is overkill for everything...I could do anything while I'm rendering the CS5 stuff, so I don't really need more than 16gb RAM to make it faster(for CS5) at this moment, but larger than 8gb should be way better.
    The reason I try to mix them up(I know mixing is always fail), is just want to find out if it works or not, if it works, then it should be a bonus, since I can get them with a low price, and if it doesn't work, I can just give it back.
    I just wanna make sure
    *those RAM won't hurt my system(if it doesn't work properly with MacPro), and how can I make sure it?
    *if I got no choice, I might get 8 sticks of those 2gb(since the price is really cheap) and sell all the 1gb sticks(if those 2gb RAM is no problem)
    *Ideal for me is upgrade 4 sticks at a time, like 4x1 & 4x2, then 4x2 4x4, etc.. but I guess this wouldn't work...

  • MSI B75IA-E33 supported memory

    I'm looking for some memory kits to be used with my MSI B75IA-E33. I have my eyes on:
    G.Skill 1.35v F3-12800CL7D-4GBECO
    Corsair 1.35v CML8GX3M2A1600C9W
    Kingston 1.35v KHX1600C9D3LK2/8GX
    Kingston 1.35v KHX1866C9D3LK2/4GX
    All of those are low voltage variants. Can they be used flawlessly with the B75IA-E33?
    I have checked the supported memory list, and they are not listed (msi.com/file/test_report/TR10_2673.pdf).
    However, a low voltage G.Skill Sniper 1.25v F3-12800CL9D-8GBSR2 is listed and supported.

    Quote
    1. Is the default voltage normal? Because it's constantly changing between 1.472 V and 1.488 V (just those 2 numbers, nothing in between).
    This isn't a problem.
    Quote
    2. How can I set it to the advertised 1.35 V? I have checked the BIOS and found out that I can change the Voltage to 1.35 V, but I'm not sure that's all that has to be done. Do I have to adjust the frequency as well?
    Enable XMP in bios to get it to run at the advertised 1600.
    You can set the voltage in the OC section of bios. DRAMV: 1.35

    sorry my bad English, writing from Argentina, died latin forum

    Have you made sure that the video cards power connector is properly hooked up to a dedicated +12V cable of your PSU?
    Have you unplugged your PSU from A/C power and >>cleared CMOS<< each time after installing an add-on video card for testing? If not, please give that a try.
    Anything connected to the board's HDMI port at the same time?  In case there is, please unplug it. Also, test with one memory module only.

    My conclusion: something's wrong with the board and I am assuming it is related to the PCI-E.
    Could be a number of different things in that area:
    broken PCI-E port or a problem with the sub-circuitry
    a short circuit inside the case somewhere which renders the PCI-E port unfunctional (test the board outside the case on a non-conducting surface)
    PCI-E-Interface is part of the CPU, not part of the boards chipset:
    --> perhaps the CPU is defective
    --> pin contact problem between CPU and socket-pins (check the socket for bent or broken pins and also inspect the CPU's contact pads for areas of poor or no imprints from socket pins

    The problem is that my new R9 290 doesnt work on the first comp. When pressing the power button the fan of the GPU is maxing and makes alot of noise. Connecting my monitor to the onboard GPU i see the comp is working and is booting into windows. Updating the Bios didnt work and chosing PEG instead of IGP doesnt matter.
    To check if the R9 290 is working i put it in comp2. It boots normally, and no problems. I began to wonder if the PSU of comp1 is the problem.
    So i Changed the PSU of comp2 to comp1 and pushed the power button. Same as before: alot of noise and not working.
    Meanwhile it Boots into windows. Connecting my monitor to the onboard video I can see it boots into windows. But  I dont see the R9 290 at all in the hardware device list.
    My first conclusion: The XFX R9 290 isnt recognized by the B75MA-P45 Motherboard at all, even when i switch the PSU from comp2.
    I need the card to work on comp 1 because that is my computer. (Comp2 I borrowed from a friend for testing).

  • MSI H81M-E33 BIOS Issues and Post Flash Issues

    Hello,
    My situation is as follows: (TL:DR at bottom)
    Built a new computer and decided to use the new LGA 1150 refreshed CPUs. Bought the MSI H81M-E33 Motherboard and installed windows. Noticed a problem with the rebooting even when installing windows. Thought it was just because of the windows installation, but problem persisted in which the computer seems to shut down but doesn't power down and i have to manually hold power button to power down and then push it again to start up. No real issues it seems since the computer does close processes and shut down but this was irritating me. I read online that BIOS updates seem to fix this problem. Did some research and decided to update with M-Flash to bios v6.6.
    As I used M-flash to update to BIOS (selected "Select one file to update BIOS and ME") v6.6 the update stops at 47% and then the computer attempts to restart. BUT it still has the same problem and does not power down. So I manually powered down and started it back up. I then got "no signal" even as I waited. Now I'm freaking out and I power it down again and try again. This time I wait and it get to BIOS (MSI Screen) and then no signal again (not booting windows). Again I hold power down and power back on. Long wait again and I get back to bios. Still freaked out at this point but relieved I didn't brick motherboard.
    Decide to flash v6.5 in case 6.6 was too new and might some problems. However v6.5 has the same problems; bios update stops at 47%, computer attempts to reboot, can't reboot, I power off, power on, no signal, power off, power on, wait a while and it gets to BIOS (MSI Screen), then boots to windows.
    Right now the bios does read the bios version as v6.5 but I still have the issues in restarting where that doesn't really work. In addition, I now have this wait from pushing the power button to when I see BIOS (MSI Screen).
    TL:DR
    Had reboot problems decided to update BIOS
    Used M-flash ("Select one file to update BIOS and ME") to update to v6.6
    Update stopped at 47%, computer attempted to reboot, got no signal (reboot problem), powered off, powered on, waited a long time nothing, freaked out, powered off, powered on, waited a while got to bios (Whew), checked for new version (it is).
    Decided v6.6 might be too new decided to try v6.5 used M-Flash again
    Again stopped at 47%, computer attempted to reboot, got no signal (reboot problem), powered off, powered on, waited a long time, nothing, powered off powered on, waited a while got to bios, checked bios for new version (it is), save and exit, no signal, power off, power on, waited a while got to bios, then booted into windows
    My concerns are;
    I seem to still have reboot issue.
    I have to wait for BIOS now, no longer pretty quick start.
    My questions are;
    Did I mess up the flashing somewhere?
    Was stopping at 47% normal?
    Should I try to update the BIOS another method to fix my current problems?
    Am I missing a step somewhere?
    Any help is appreciated, I just got really freaked out by the whole process but I'm just glad the computer still works (kinda).
    Thanks in advance for any help, and apologies on the long essay just wanted to be as specific as possible.

  • Ipod touch cannot not be sync as itunes does not have enough memory

      I got a new ipod touch 32gb yesterday 12.sept 2011.
    i set it up to my computer and put my apps and music on to it, its has 25.2gb left on it and my computer has 80gb memory left put when i try to put pictures on to the ipod 32gb it shows and error message saying
    THIS IPOD CANNOT BE SYNC AS ITUNES DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH MEMORY,
    whats going on.?
    Also all my apps from my 8gb ipod touch are all updated and put on the 32gb ipod touch  but when i go to updates on the 32gb ipod touch it shows all my apps have updates to download
    but when i click on the same are showing the £0.69 next to them, if i click on them do i have to buy them again? WHEN I ALREADY HAVE PAID FOR THEM
    my ipod touch 8gb has 4gb memory left and that too cannot sync pictures or any more music as the same error message shows
    THIS IPOD CANNOT NOT BE SYNC AS ITUNES DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH MEMORY
    IS THIS I TUNES MEMORY OR SOMETHING

    it seem's to be working not but don't know how long
    keep your fingers crossed ...
    my laptop has an 2tb of ram
    you mean 2GB, right? You might consider to get yourself more RAM to run Lion smoothly. Looking at my machine I see that the kernel, Safari, iTunes and Mail together take up 2GB, without doing anything interesting at all.

  • "The Finder does not have enough memory available"

    "The Finder does not have enough memory available"
    Situation: G4 (AGP Graphics), OS 9.0 with tons of memory.
    Problem: Only with any browser viz Explorer, Communicator, iCab or Opera (all versions). Starts off fine. I have broadband. Then steadily goes slower and slower till virtually stops even with just the one browser and one window and no other programs in use. Try to do anything else and above message appears. The problem seems to involves the operating system and the way it interacts with the code of certain sites eg Ebay. It has nothing to do with PRAM, or allocation of memory to the browser or deleting various Preferences. The deletion of Finder, Memory etc Preferences, quitting, restarting all deal with the symptoms and are not a permanent cure. The primary symptom is a massive loss of available memory, not even enough to run a single browser and one window! Any simple solutions? I realise I can upgrade to OS 9.2. Will this work? Apart from this browser problem I am happy with my present set so is there a simpler solution apart from upgrading?

    Thankyou to all for the welcome and your responses to my query.
    I have 640mb of RAM. The problem is intermitent and is determined to a great extent by the sites which I visit. Yahoo for example is great - no problems. In another window visiting eg Ebay will eventually (variable) cause a slowdown. I have switched Virtual Memory on and off, changed cache, program allocations of memory, regularly used Norton Utilies to inspect, repair, defrag etc and looked all over the place for advice. Things run great for a while but it is only a question of time , months or even days, before the problem re-appears. I was surprised to find so little about it on the Web. Perhaps everyone else has upgraded or is on OS X! If I could have done something without upgrading I may have gone for that option as everything else is running like a dream and I want to keep it that way! I use programs such as Paperport (sadly not made for OS X) which I find a marvellous scanning and paperwork management program. To get it to work with OS 9.0 I had to determine with Cassidy & Green's marvellous extension conflict identifier Conflict Catcher that the Control Strip needed disabling. If I upgrade, I could, for Paperport et al, upset the Apple cart! I have also read about a program called Reaper which was used to deal, I believe, with Finder memory problems with OS 7 and OS 8. It is still available on at http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macos/3783 Apart from this I know nothing more at present about it.
    However, the following was one item which I found of great interest which goes along with your advice of upgrading.
    From http://www.icab.de/faq.html#q36
    "Mac OS 8/9: Why does iCab 3.0 complain that it is running out of memory all the time?
    This is not a bug of iCab, it's a bug of the "classic" MacOS 8.5/8.6 (and maybe OS 9.0 as well). The problem occurs when a web page has web forms with text input fields. The Unicode text input fields (MLTE) of these old MacOS releases do still have some serious bugs. One of theses bugs causes the MacOS to reserve almost all available memory for these text edit fields so there's no memory left for iCab. Apple has fixed this bug in MacOS 9.2.x (maybe in 9.1 as well), so the best solution for this problem would be to upgrade the MacOS. If this is not possible, you can disable the Unicode text input fields in the preferences dialog of iCab in the panel "Operation > Browser, Tabs". Switch off the option "Use Unicode TextEdit" to configure iCab so that it will use the "ancient" text edit fields, which do work OK, but which do not support Unicode".
    Here is someone with a similar problem back in 2000:
    "From TacitRF
    Date: Thurs, Jun 8 2000 12:00am
    Email: [email protected] (TacitR)
    Groups: comp.sys.mac.system
    This is ridiculous! I have hardly touched this machine today. Does RAM get eaten up while the computer is sitting there idle (and sleeping every now and then after I've checked email or looked at a couple newsgroup posts)?
    Yes, it can, under certain circumstances.
    Open your TCP/IP control panel. Click the Options button. (If there is no Options button, select Edit->User Mode, and click "Advanced.") Is "Load Only When Needed" turned on? If it is, you may severly fragment the memory in your computer every time you start a program that uses the Internet. Let's say, for example, you launch Netscape. Netscape tries to access the Internet. This causes TCP/IP to load, on top of Netscape. Now, when you quit Netscape, the memory it was using may not get freed up. Launch Outlook. It loads TCP/IP. Now, when you quit Outlook, you may not get its memory back either". Try turning off Load Only When Needed in the TCP/IP Options, see if that solves
    the problem. Hope that helps!"
    I find that whatever I do one way or another the slowdown will eventually reappear. A bit like weeding gardens and washing dishes! Well unless there is a way of dealing with OS 9.0 memory behaviour with browsers it looks like an upgrade will have to do!

    Hello BassoonPlayer,
    Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using.  FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in.  This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly.  By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you.  Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.
