MSI Core Centre ANNOYING!!!!!

Ok i recently upgraded the cooling on my amd 64 3700 sandiego be cause i found that the stock heatsink and fan sucked. so i purchased a Gigabyte G-Power pro. This is a great cooler and cools the cpu much better however i have found that since i have imstalled it MSI Core Centre keeps popping up from the system tray and making teh alarm noise, now i don't know why it does this because all the temps voltages and speeds are fine, and no overclocking has been done, it isn't even highlighting the bit thats supposed to be causing the problem, and the alarm will stop after a few seconds. but it's really annoying when playing a game and your whole game mnimizes and core centre pops up      i have installed the latest version too. pls help 

I don't use corecenter while gaming,but maybe you can edit the HW.ini file in "C:\Program Files\MSI\Core Center"
It lists all the settings for fan speed limits etc. , maybe your new fan drops below the minimum setting which is at 1000 by default.
Or some other setting that influences this.
Have you btw speedfan running at the same time?Because when in that program the wrong fan divider is set corecenter also sounds alarm.
I found this when setting a different value for my northbridge fan,my cpu fan dropped to 150 rpm in corecenter,still it maintained the same temperature and ofcourse the fan ran at full speed (3300rpm).

  • MSI Core Centre?

    Hello all I have just got a new K8N Neo today, got it all setup and seems to be working fine, will update my sig soon hehe
    I expected the CPu temps to be wrong, but whats the best way to monitor them in XP? Do I still use MSI Core Centre? Im just a bit confused because I downloaded it from this main site, and I get Core Centre.exe, but when I run it it starts installing radio web update something  
    So do I use Core Centre, and if so where do i get it?, and if not what do we use now?
    Thx Xee

    Ahh yeah thx, I found them on the cd couple of mins ago
    Was just wanting to get the latest version online. Seems that MSI has their files mixed up on their server, as well as named wrongly
    Now I need to find the latest Bios version, dont suppose anyone has a link?

  • Core Centre or Core Temp beta 0.94

    Hi,
    been playing around with these two temp monitors, and there is an 8 degree difference in temperatures. MSI Core Centre being the lowest temp and core temp beta 0.94 showing both cores at roughly 8 degrees higher (both idle & under load).
    the temps from core centre are not much to worry about, but the core temp temps do need attention.
    Does anyone know which one is most acurate?
    Cheers very much

    For example, 60°C is quite normal for a core2 and nothing to worry about, while for an athlon that would be hot ...
    I am not sure if this true.  Have a look at the Intel C2D datasheet.  Chapter 5.1 is about Thermal Specifications.  The maximum temperature mentioned in Table 28 on page 79 is 60.1°C. 
    ftp://download.intel.com/design/processor/datashts/31327803.pdf
    Considering that my temperatures @2,7 Ghz are far below 60°C, I dare to say, that 60°C is quite hot for C2D.
    My temps:
    IDLE: 30-33°C (20°C room temperature)
    LOAD: 44-47°C (two instances of prime)

    Hi guys,
    Anyone here know why the following would happen:
    I use the MSI Dual Core Centre 2.0.1.0 for Windows XP... every so once in a while, the fan speed would drop to 0-RPM, and
    a very irratating alarm would go off. This started to worry me, and I opened my side panel to look at the CPU Fan when the alarm goes off.
    the Fan is turning at high velocity, but the alarm still goes off. Is there something wrong with this software ? or am I doing something wrong.
    One minute it reports 2005-RPM, then it just shows 0-RPM, and the alarm goes off. My machine is about 2 months old.
    Should I be making changes in the BIOS on the Mobo, to enable support for Dual Core Centre???
    Please help...very worried...
    By the way "Speed Fan" reports no such alarms or CPU fan speed issues...
    What is going on ?

    Not sure if this may work bc you reported fanspeed reaching zero.
    On my system with 975XPUE, Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 always runs below 1K rpm.  So I have to use a user profile with Fan Min set about 833 rpm to avoid the annoying alarm.
    If you don't find any solution to the reported fanspeed reaching zero, you might be able to at least disable the alarm by setting Fan Min in DCC to 0 rpm.  That or uninstall DCC as suggested by most forum users.

    I have the same problem with this following error trying to install the Dual Core Center 2.0.0.6 : "runtime error. Could not call proc".
    How can I fix the problem ? I use Windows Vista Ultimate Edition 64.
    In other words, MSI Dual Core Center does not support Windows Vista 64.  You can try CoreTemp, but again since you have x64 you need to read this:  http://www.alcpu.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=211

  • MSI DUO CORE CENTRE APPLICATION

    Hi all, i would like to try out OC and would like to test with the software first.
    However, I cannot click on the D.O.T (Dynamic OC) button in the DUO CORE CENTRE program. Nor was there any UP and DOWN buttons beside the DOT that I can adjust the settings.
    I am using AMD 5200, wif latest BIOS installed. VGA is XpertVision 8800GT. My MOBO is MSI K9NGM3.
    Explored the application but only settings for the VGA can be tweaked. Understand that Multiplier cannot be OC but FSB should be able to. Nothing can be adjusted under the Mainboard settings.
    Could anyone provide some guidelines?
    [P.S. Would also like to know how much to OC with my 5200]
    Thanks!

    125w CPUs are NOT supported by your board. Understand the risk you are taking overclocking such a budget board... You could end up melting the MOSFETs.
    5000+/5200+ get to around 3GHz on a guess of 1.375v-1.425v. Beyond usually takes some voltage. You can clear CMOS via CMOS jumper: Clear CMOS Guide
    *** But I highly recommend you do not overclock with this board. ***
    Thanks for the advice. As i only recently began building my own PC, I didnt chose high end stuff yet.
    But a bit of OC also not adviseable? Maybe on stock fan.
    I am interested in the X47 board but all things must start from basics first  :D

  • Core Centre won't run

    Hi guys.  Any gals?
    Just upgraded to a 865PE Neo2 (yeah, upgraded.  Wanna make something of it?) which is the MS-6728 v.1 MoBo.  P4 Prescott installed with XP Prof. SP2 2GB RAM.  Didn't get the CD with it so no Core Center.  Have downloaded a Core Centre driver from a shady source which claims to be version 2.1.5.0 tho' the release note with it - which lists my MoBo as supported - gives the latest version as 2.0.2.3.
    It seems to install happily enough, but at the end where set-up offers to launch CoreCenter or the read-me there's nothing to select.  The folder installed into contains several files including CoreCenter.exe of 911KB from April 2007, but when I try to run it the application tells me that Core Center does not support my motherboard - which seems strange considering there's a chunky chip called "MSI CORE CENTER" right there in the center of it.  Well, almost in the middle.
    Yes, I installed and run it as Computer Administrator.  Even more infuriating, there's a process called "CoreCentre.exe" running and taking up 11,148KB of my memory, according to Task manager, and I even get the Core Center shell complete with some info in my task bar and can open it on the desktop at the same time as I get the message that Core Center doesn't support my motherboard.
    Any ideas?

    Corecenter does runs on XP but not needed once again.
    Well I need it, or something similar - and if there's something designed for the board it seems daft not to use it.
    Quote from: NovJoe on 31-March-10, 22:24:41
    Prescott are also being nicknamed as Pres"hot" for those who have used before. It is generally a very hot processor to being with so if you really need something to help with monitoring temps, try Core Temp and see if it works with older versions of the processor and board.
    It's because I've read that it runs hot that I want to monitor the temp.  Unfortunately I don't have older versions of processor or board.
    Quote from: rprough on 30-March-10, 16:45:18
    What kind of cpu heatsink are you using.
    Can't put a name to it as I pulled CPU and cooler from an old IBM server, but it's a mighty-looking thing with a couple of copper pipes aboard.  It no-doubt does a good job, being server grade, but it's as noisy as hell once I ramp it up with some serious gaming.  That's why I'm switching to water-cooling, and need to monitor the temperature.
    My point, Guys, is that Core Center reports that it doesn't support my MOTHERBOARD, not the OS or the CPU.  Yet if it's started as a service with Windows it runs a process and puts an icon in my taskbar which when activated brings up the GIU with some info aboard, at the same time as the error message.

  • Core centre and multiple users

    Hi
    I noticed today after setting up another user on my XP machine that core centre wouldn't work and gave an error along the lines of "failed to initialize" and then hardware monitor isn't working.  Earlier I noticed that without core centre running that may fan speeds were at idle and didn't change untill I opened core centre and I could hear them throtle up. So now I'm worried that if i'm not logged in as a particular user or the computer is at the login screen that my hardware isn't being looked after at all. has anyone else experienced this and can it be fixed?

    Don't use corecenter for fan speed control.  Instead, use the BIOS:
    1) Open Corecenter from the administrator account or a user account that has admin privileges.  Click on the top center logo which should open the fan speed control window.  There should be two items, CoolnQuiet and User/Manual or something like.  Put it in manual and move the slider all the way to the right. Ignore the CoolnQuiet, it's misnamed here - MSI's corecenter does not control CoolnQuiet.  What MSI is calling CoolnQuiet is just fan speed control.  Anyway, put it in manual.  Close Corecenter and you should never have to open it again unless you want to monitor fan RPM's.
    2) Next, reboot and enter the BIOS.  Go to the H/W  Monitor settings.  Turn on Smart CPU Fan Speed.  Set to 40 C +/- 1.    This will allow the motherboard to control the fan speed.  On the other hand, if you want your fan always at maximum, then disable Smart Fan Speen control.   Don't worry about the Smart NB Fan speed, leave it disabled.
    Also, keep in mind that when you first open Corecenter, the immediate fan RPM's reported are not correct.  It takes it a few seconds to get the readings.  So wait until Corecenter minimizes itself to the system tray, then open it from there, and you will see the correct fan RPM's.

  • Core Centre 1.5.80

    Installed the latest version of MSI's Core Centre, v1.5.80, think it's only been out a few days, but already I'm having the same error message over & over again about a "Hardware Monitor" failing to load or something.  It pops up twice and then reboots itself whenever I turn on my PC.  Once it's rebooted it work's fine but it clearly isn't working properly.  I've e-mailed MSI UK & MSI.com but so far the only response I got back was from the UK and all they said was to download the latest version, the very version I was e-mailing them about.  Used MSCONFIG to disable at startup but it's a pain in the butt starting it manually everytime I use my PC.  Any help/constructive suggestions would really be appreciated.  

    I got the same problem after defragmenting my harddrive. The defragmenter optimize winxp startup/boot which causes I think core center to load before the hardware monitor driver.
    The only solution at the moment is to remove core center from the startup folder and start it manually.
    OR you could try to add the following line 'start /belownormal \corecenter.exe' in the shortcut for core center which is in the startup folder.
    This will force core center to start after all normal prio apps have started and by that time the hardware monitor driver should have been loaded.

  • Core Centre... Is it safe?

    Hello,
    As the title is core centre safe?
    Had a go at auto settings and got a windows stability problem and had to reboot.
    (at around 220 mhz).
    Rebooted and it levelled at 218 mhz.
    I then put it back to defaults as I did'nt want to cause any damage.
    If you use cc in auto mode will it make sure that your settings are safe all the time?
    How does this effect your warranty with msi/ amd?
    Thanks.

    Core center does not keep adjusting it self.  It will keep pushing your system to the limit untill you take over and do something.  As for burning   and neglecting hardware I found that companies generally don't even ask what happened they just send out a replacement.  I've fried a harddrive and even snapped a transistor off my video card and had no problem getting them replaced.  The parts cost next to nothing to produce, it's what goes into their development that pushes up prices.  The companies tend to be more concerned with your return business rather than crying over why you cranked on your processor.

  • Core Centre

    Hi everyone, my first time in and with what's probably a curly one, leastways when I enter Core Centre in MSI search it comes back with 0 results, despite the program being well-labelled "MSI"
    Anyhow what's happening, since I installed Core Centre from a MSI disc, as far as I recall, is that about every other time I start up I get  blue screen crash, after the message that monitor driver hasn't loaded.
    According to blue screen script "RushTop.sys F9DE2C90" and "Tech 0x0000008E", none of which makes me any the wiser
    Not really a light matter, at least according to Windows and the Microsoft error report.
    I have tried uninstalling Core Centre, but it won't allow me to, eg "access denied", so I seem to be stuck with a nasty one, unless soeone can help ... pleeeeeeeease,
    even pretty please!

    I am having the same thing happen. You can remove it by hitting CTRL-ALT-DEL before clicking "OK" on the error, then stop the CORECENTER.EXE process. Then click ok on the error and un-install it.
    Anyone know what is causing this??

  • MSI Core Center problem!!!

    I´ve just updated the MSI Core Center to ver 1.6.2.0 because 1.6.1.0 kept increasing and decreasing CPU fan speed all the time, got a bit annoying.
    After the install and restart of PC, when Core Center started, the PC automaticly restarted. Only way I can use my PC now is by dissabling Core Center, or going to older ver. but thats not the best solution.
    I have passiv coling on NB, but this havent caused problems before, and keeps a normal temp.
    MSI, i think u should look tthe Core Center program over, somethings wrong.
    Pardon my english (I´m from Sweden).

    hi khinax,
    Please give your signature (computer spec).
    Why you adjust the fan speed doesn't it run automatically with 3 pin?
    Use CC with not much problem.
    I use it for DOT with ver.1.6.1.0 which quit better than 1.6.2.0, this is the only software that can communicate with the COreCell.
    Work fine right now.

  • Core Centre temp. Indicator

    I have K8T neo (MS -6702)Mother board with Athlon 64 3000 XP. After flashing with new bios my core centre application reads CPU temp between 37-40* C and when rebooted shows between 57-60* C. Before flashing it was showing steadily between 57-60* C. Bios shows temp 57-60*. I have allowed cool N quiet to work. What is the solution? and  MSi  Info Xp shows my bios date as 04/02/01 which is not correct.
    Also please tell me what is  the max safe temp of this CPU is ok as I am living in the middle east with now peak summer temp. of 44* C . Thanks in Advance
    Taru

    Hi Taru
    Welcome
    The Mobo has a protection device, which will switch the system down if it exceeds 65C, the Core Center seems to misrepresent the temps, so try MBM5, and see what the temps really are. With an ambient temp of 40C, you would expect temps of over 50C on CPU, even with perfect Cooling.  If your temp looks high, check the Heatsink with your hand, if it seems ' normal', not burning you, then it is probably OK. Also when it is high look in Task manager under CPU useage and see if it is at a high load.  I Fold all the time with any spare CPU capacity, so my CPU runs at 100%, but the MBM5 temp shows at 38C, ambient temp here is between 20 - 25C.
    SATA disks work great, whatever configuration you have, single, 2 or more, or on Raid.
    Cheers

    I read a thread somewhere in this forum saying 1.8 is good if you have Sempron (E6?). If by some reason you have to flash 1.8, search for User syar2003's post. I followed his procedures and I flashed 1.6 successfully. Bios 1.5 gave me a lot of troubles.
