Change "FSB:RAM" ratio in BIOS Cell Menu
Thanks for your replay
when i change FSB to 1:4 . i just got 1600 not 1800 . this RAM normally can reach 1800
I tried to change it to 8-8-8-24 , (1.7 - 1.9 volt )to get 1800. but i found 2 voltage values:- first one: DDR Vref voltage  , Second: DDR Voltage
which one i have to change?

  • Are the versions of BIOS from MSI 790FX-GD70 compatible with GD70 Winki Edition?

    I want to update BIOS because a problem with freezing up of the system remains the same. But for Winki Edition updates kept indoors April 2009, while for original GD70 there were already 5 (!) new versions of updates. Is BIOS compatible from original GD70 with my Winki Edition? Thanks for answers.

    As you look at the Bios versoins remember that because there have been addl versions it doesn't mean you need it. Newer Bios's will only make a difference in the areas that adjustments were made. ie: an upgrade for CPU compatability for example. If everything is fine and running don't upgrade your Bios because you noticed a new one unless you need it. On the other hand upgrading to a 'Released' newer version might not hurt either, but when it comes to 'Beta" versions you enter the 'Beta' world of unsanctioned (MSI Released) versions that are for test/adjust purposes before release.
    I don't have the 'Winki' edition and spoke to MSI Tech Support about adding Winki. (not going to do it after all) but for me it requires adding the Winki through USB board connection to add, you need to remove the Winki attachment to use the nonWinki Bios editions. If you think the other board version Bios's will enhanch you top OC capability I do not know if an advantage exists? OC is a single capability on all equally built PC's that get different results. You might want to do the reverse of what I asked MSI Tech and learn if it is worth it. Do you like the Winki part? If yes, changing will loose it. The gain can't be huge, enjoy your board with Winki, you'll probialy be happier in the long run.

  • 790gx g65 winki edition memory-z freeze

    Hey, I have the above board and whenever I enter memory-z in the bios and try to check out stick 3 it'll just freeze and I'll have to use the restart button. I seen a similer thread with two folks freezing on different brand boards based on the 790gx chipset aswell. It doesn't really affect anything, I'm stable and able to overclock fine and all, it's just annoying. System info: Phenom II 955, Ati sapphire 4850, 4x1gb sticks of corsair ddr3 1333 xms RAM, corsair 550vx power supply
    I would just like to note this happened with older DDR3 ram I had which I got exchanged for the corsair stuff, I tried stock motherboard settings, stock and below ram settings and clearing the CMOs, still freezes.

    I'm using 2.0 (the only bios) of this one http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1813
    Edit: Oh and, is there any difference between the original 790gx and the winki edition besides the usb OS and the silly name? Would the winki be on par bioswise such as new bios update fixes and the such?

  • MSI GT70 Dragon Edition Nvidia Problem

    First of all my first languages is'nt English if you can understand I would be gratefull.
    I use MSI GT70 Dragon Edition with Ge force GTX 675 MX but Windows 8 doesn't recognise my graphic card.When I click the dxdiag I see Intel Graphic Cards.

    Quote from: darkhawk on 14-January-13, 00:09:48
    Yeah, ignore dxdiag and put a real 3D game in and see if it switches, thats the real test.
    Wow am I late to the party. However I also fear that my GTX780M is not actually functioning in games with my GT70. How do I know for certain that it is "switching" from the Intel HD graphics. My distrust comes from the fact the in advanced tab under screen resolution (Windows 8) it always displays the Intel Graphics. The Nvidia card is listed as working in the device manager however. All of my power setting are set to gaming/high performance and in the Nvidia settings I have the GTX 780M set to global. Thanks is anyone can provide feedback.

  • MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR Memory problems

    I'm trying to burn in a system in a 50 deg C (122 deg F) room for a minimum of 12 hours.  The main system components are as follows:
    Motherboard:  MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR
    CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2800+
    Memory: 2x512 OCZ PC3200 EL
    My problem is that the burn-in software continues to freeze up during the memory test.  I've already contacted the software manufacturers and the software is stable.  It's a problem with the way the motherboard handles the memory.  I've tried putting the memory in dual channel configuration and changing the timing settings in the BIOS.  The SPD settings are 2.5-3-3-7.  Right now I have them at 3-4-3-8.  It's a lot more stable than it was under the default settings but it still freezes up sometime after 7 hours.  Unfortunately, I wasn't around when it froze so I don't know exactly how long it lasted.  I can say that after 7 hours, it wasn't showing any slowdown in performance.  If anyone could think of anything else I might be able to do to get the system stable, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Thanks for the suggestions.  The CPU FSB is 200, so it's already matched up there.  And we have a ton of fans already.  There are two in the front, 4 inside and 1 on the back.  It's a custom case, 2u high.  The power supply is oversized and more than adequate to provide the required power.  I have four of these units running right now.  Two with 2x512 sticks and two with 1x1024 sticks.  For each combination, the memory clock speed for one is 166 and 200 for the other.  I have been loosening up the memory timings trying to get the system stable, but it still isn't.  If the power supply is good, and I'm unable to cool the system anymore due to limititions within the case, is there anything you can think of to stabilize the system.  Maybe other settings in the BIOS or suggestions on how to go about getting good timings for the memory.  Thanks.

  • P4N SLI-FI Intel Edition Memory Problems

    Ok Im new to DDR2 but this just seems like something is not right. Ok so I have the P4N SLI-FI Intel Edition Mobo. Flashed to newest bios as of 01/23/06 Ok so the ram comes up in bios as ddr2-667 but when I boot to windows it clocks down to 333mhz effective clock and 167mhz real clock, giving me a 5300 bandwidth( checked with everest ultimate edition). Also this ram is Corsair Value Ram rated at 667 ddr2 pc5300. I am running a 1gb dual channel kit I had bought from newegg. I looked on the internet elseware and found somthings about speed ratings and such but nothing that tells me straight up if 5300 should be my bandwidth, I have 14 years of computer experiance and common sense tells me that my bandwidth should be 10.6gb. Again ddr2 is completly new to me. Also I have read that pc5400 solves some problems in other boards not sure what they ment by problems but I was thinking maybe I bought the wrong ram, also on msi's website I checked the pdf file for supported ram and again I did NOT see the ram I had purchased but that means almost nothing as they leftout alot of major brands of ddr2-667 and other speeds aswell.
    I am really pissed off at this point. I can tell my system is slow, boot up times are longer then my Amd XP3200+
    Also another problem I am having is that the Nvidia GbE Lan is not working at all. Checked the bios and its turned on still no go. I had to put a Lan card in to even get online. This is not as important as the first problem but still annoying.
    Thanks for your time.
    Pic:
    System Specs:

    Aspire X-Navigator Case w/ 550w Aspire Powersupply
    Soundblaster Audigy LS

    I mean it sounded kind of like it was correct but, in windows I expected something to say ddr2 667 and all the programs I am running label it as ddr2 333
    Even my everest ultimate 2006 and sisoft sandra say its ddr2 333, the benchmarks that do come with those programs show other peoples ram running at ddr2 667
    Also the comp just seems slow windows loads in 5 bars (the thing at the bottom when booting) and then another 30 secs after that.
    My other comp an AthlonXP 3200+, 512 ddr400 DC, 40gb ide hdd, 9600xt) loads windows in 1.5 bars and instant to desktop with older technology.
    The games dont seem to be loading fast at all either. Basically I am very dissapointed in the performance of ddr2-667 its not faster than ddr400 by any means and if its the board then im really heated because this board should fly, funny how I read reviews on the board before I buy it and they said it was all good, then I find more in depth reviews that really say this board is below average.
    Could it be possible that ddr2 5400 would be a better choice because the board cant support ddr2 5300?
    Again thanks for your help guys im just dissapointed in the performance, sucks after spending $450+ and the video card is the only on par piece I've gotten.

  • MSI GX700 Intel Turbo Memory Problem

    hello,
    My brand new GX700 notebook worked fine for some time. Suddenly a BSOD appeared with following message: "STOP: 0x00008086, (0x00000301, 0x00000108, 0x00000005, 0x00000000)" and computer shut down. Afterwards, Windows Vista 32-bit loaded normally, but Intel Turbo Memory Console showed Windows ReadyBoost and ReadyDrive were both greyed and disabled. I run Device Manager and it listed Intel Flash Cache Logic Chip as present but with yellow warning sign on it. Then hit Properties and it showed following problem under Device status "This device cannot start. (Code 10)". So, I taught that was a driver issue. Downloaded generic Intel Turbo Memory driver v1.5 from Intel's site, but it appeared as worse than the previous 1.0.1.1004 version listed in the Driver Download area on official MSI's support site. I've tried many different scenarios in order to sort this issue out, but with no luck. Is there anyone who's familiar with the problem to help me?
    P.S.
    Actual BIOS version is 1.0K, AHCI mode is enabled. OS is Vista 32-bit with latest patches applied.
    Help me, please.

    I guess I found a solution. Vista Home Premium appears to be more stable and suitable for the notebook. The blame is on Microsoft's side. My intention wasn't to offend anyone, especially not MSI. But my local distributor who runs the Service  Center  isn't as nearly capable as should be. The only thing they did, despite my efforts to write them down an essay that explains all of the steps I've done so far, was new driver installation that didn't work. I apologise if I offend someoneones feelings, but You can imagine how furious I was at the moment of system failure after 5 days of "service".
    Anyway solution lies in clean Vista Home Premium installation, running Windows Update afterwards, installation of chipset inf, VGA, WLAN drivers ... and finally Intel Matrix Storage driver and then manual installation of Intel Turbo Memory driver through Device Manager.
    Best regards. 

  • MSI Big Bang Trinergy Memory problem.....

    I recently purchased a Bing Bang Trinergy mobo. It's combined with an Intel i3 540 cpu and 2 Kingston KVR1333D3N9/2G ram modules. The mobo came with BIOS 1.1 version. When I've tried to update the BIOS to any version above 1.1 (1.2, 1.3, 1.4) and DUAL MEMORY CHANNEL is used, the system rans to slow, jerky sound immersed (can't play any video), the cores show above 60% load all the time, playing games is impossible (system hangs or blue screens appears), takes ages to load win7 Ultimate. I've tried everything, manual setting the timings of the ram, voltage, command rate 2N, nothing works. I've also test the system with 2xKINGSTON KHX1600C9AD3B1/2G ram modules but the same results obtained. I've checked all possible positions in dual channel mode, nothing. When only one module is used (single channel) then everything is ok. All the ram modules passed the memtest and verified for the their good working state.
    The strange thing is that when the BIOS 1.1 version is used everything runs smoothly. BIOS update was perfomed with 2 different ways : 1. MSI windows application and 2. in DOS mode. Also the sound card (if God makes it a soundcard) sometimes worked and sometimes didn't.

    The course of action seems clear. Revert & use 1.1.
    This thread may have some good advice; https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=141272.0
    Recommend to open a ticket with MSI Tech Support detailing your findings. They may be able to duplicate everything & address it in an updated bios. For bios flashing, it is highly recommended to use this forum's USB Flasher. You can find it along with instructions in the Download Section of the forum. It is also always recommended to do a 'power cord removed' from PSU clearining of CMOS after a flash.

  • MSI K8T Neo FIS2R - Memory problem???

    I have bought myself a second stick of ram for my computer, being careful to make sure it was exactly the same brand and model.
    In spite of this I now get random bluescreen errors of varying types, the first was PFN_LIST_CORRUPT and the latest:
    PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA
    STOP: 0x00000050 (0xC5AD0D7C, 0x0000000, 0x8050298A, 0x0000000)
    Is the new ram incompatible?? this makes no sense though.....   ???

    I have tried switching ram sticks around but no luck there
    Got three BSOD's yesterday, no specific error just STOP: blah blah blah when trying to burn a CD and then after that just when using IE.....
    ........and then I played call of duty 2 for 3hours without a single problem 
    Today when trying to run FS2 open I got two IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL errors (with no driver mentioned)
    Anyway, I have been doing some research on socket 754 athlon 64's, and I found some interesting info from AMD:
    Where MSI says that the board supports that config at DDR400. so the board supports it but the CPU doesn't! what is the point of that??
    I tried running at DDR333 but the CPU stuck at 1.8GHZ (150FSBx12) according to everest 
    Is it possible at all to run two sticks of Double sided ram at DDR400? surely someone has done it and has it working....
    Another thing, after the first IRQL error my computer hung at detecting the CD-RW drive and I had to turn off and on again  ???

  • MSI 975X Powerup Edition RAID Problem in BIOS

    Guys i just faced a new problem over the weekend. I had 2 x 160GB seagate SATAII hard drives in raid 0 for a while and they have been working fine.
    I was try to overclock at FSB 450, then the system hanged did not post and strange beep came from the motherboard. Well after that i cannot install RAID, Motherboard is not reading harddrives in BIOS at all. Then i put the IDE drive and installed windows, plugged in the SATAII hard drives, installed drivers but now i can see the hard drives in the windows, even i can format them. The problem is now i cannot write on them, or install RAID in the BIOS.
    Is the hard drive went bad, they are brand new only month old. Even though they are bad then i should not be able to format them or see them in the windows right?
    I deleted the old RAID 0 i had on them in windows also. So what could be the problem.

    I figured out the Problem. It was the bad BIOS 7.25 don;t update to BIOS 7.25 it will mess you up.
    If you start facing problem with 7.25 go back to any other bios. I switched back to Official MSI BIOS and every thing back to normal.

  • AMD64 3200 + MSI K8T Neo FISR2 memory problem

    I've had one KVR400X64C25/512 and it have worked like a charm. Now I've bought another one (total 1gb).
    When I've inserted it and start the computer I only get the CoreCell logo scren, it do not boot correctly.
    AMIBIOS is version 3.21a
    I've tried the following:
    * run only the new memory [works]
    * run only the old memory [works]
    * DIMM1 + DIMM3 [only CoreCell screen]
    * DIMM1 + DIMM2 [only CoreCell screen]
    * DIMM2 + DIMM3 [only a black screen]
    what should I do?

    A PSU is rated to run at +/-5% and that is well within it's rating. As for wether ists big enough there is no way we can say as you still did not give full system specs.
    If it won't run with the third stick of RAM then pull it out for the moment and see if the system will boot again. If it does then during post you will see a Bios version listed. That board only supports Bios versions to 2.2 at the moment so please also list what actuall Bios version you have.
    Ok, have booted with one instead of two sticks (one works, two don't, do not have three sticks)..
    AMIBIOS A6702VMS v2.2 released 030405. The autodetect settings (at startup): Clock = 400Mhz, CAS 2.5 which seems correct.

    Such combination is not recommended in AMD systems as you must use 2x2GB and 2x1GB memory stick to obtain it.
    Which is not good idea[mixing memory sticks]
    For best results and optimal performance, use 2x matched memory sticks only.

    The message may gone by itself, often such fake message can come from bad or not compatible memory stick.

    Make sure to change the extension to .ROM.
    Nope, system is expecting original file name A7577AMS.200 as Bas mention as well.

    Ah, I see. Thought it needed a .ROM, but I'm obviously wrong.
    But if we already knew this, what's this whole topic about then?

    I would suggest to try with AMD regular memory stick 1st before attempt any BIOS recovery.
    Else he really can kill his board, while attempt to recover healthy BIOS{Too possible to be memory error and not BIOS failure
    [bad|not compatible memory stick can produce the same fake message.]
    Also BIOS hardly can corrupt to this stage by itself, he tell never touched the BIOS:

  • Mouse and memory problems (975X Pl pe)

    First Hello,
    this is my first post here, hope you can help me
    PC configuration in my signature
    OK. Here goes
    1.   And most annoying problem – mouse problem (A4tech NB-90 mouse, connected to usb)
    Mouse stops working, randomly (maybe once every month). It’s happening when booting windows. Mouse doesn’t work, actually all the led’s are blinking but it’s not recognized by windows. Disconnecting and reconnecting doesn’t work (nothing happens). Rebooting windows doesn’t help (still not working).
    Solution to my problems is to shutdown the computer and disconnect  the power cable from my PC, then reconnect it again and start the PC all over again. NOW it’s working!! WT ?
    I tested mouse (3 months) on the other pc and it works OK there, so he is not  the problem.
    o yea, I formated hdd, and installed fresh windows and still no luck.
    2.   Memory problem on 800MHz – I think this is because of incompatibility with motherboard or too weak psu
    By default (motherboard)memory works on 667MHz. (and with this setup everything is fine)
    The problem starts when I put it on 800MHz in bios – than system becomes instable (random reboots)
    a.   Memory tested with memtest at 667MHz (both and than separate modules, 4 hours each test) -> NO ERRORS
    b.   Memory tested with memtest at 800MHz (both and than separate modules) -> Never saw so much errors in my life  :(
    I doubt I’ll solve this problem (except buying new memory modules), but you guys know more than me so I’ll let you decide.
    and yeah, sorry for my bad English!
    Thanks
    Bas

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with Battlefield since I have installed my new GPU the MSI GTX660TI Power Edition.
    I have a Acer Aspire i7, with 6GB memory and a Corsair GS 800W, Windows 7 Home Premium
    Since I have installed my new GPU my game freezes and my systems tells me that there had been a problem with the Nvidia Windows Kernel mode and that it has been restored.
    It happens with both BF3 and BF4....while typing this topic message the same thing happens.....
    It also says Directx error....but I have the latest drivers....
    Could it be the Bios, mainboard or is my GPU not working as it should?
    Thanks for your help.

  • Core2Quad Q6600 on MSI 975X PowerUp Edition problem

    Hello. I have a problem that is bugging me for about one month.
    I have this configuration with an Intel Core2Quad Q6600 on a MSI 975X PowerUp Edition mainboard, with 4G Ram memory from Kingmax (4x1G DDRII 800 MHz) <The mainboard has the latest bios version 7.7>. I am running on Windows Vista x64 OS and I always get a blue screen after a nonequal period of time. I have remarked that usually it happens when running a media file (e.g. movie, DVD, play mp3) and downloading something from the internet. If I only do one type of operation at a time nothing happens, but if I do both types in the same time... in crashes. I can't figure out what may be the problem I've ran 32 memtests (one with v1.70 and one with v3.4) on each memory on each slot (4 memories x 4 slots) and got no errors. Of course than I ran one single test with both versions of memtest with the full 4G installed and got a lot of errors only on test 8 of them (regardless of the relevancy of 4G on a memtest that is on 32bit).
    I also gave a memory test from the Windows Vista x64 DVD and the system hangs at 37% for hours. I checked the HDD and has no problem.... Now I don't know what else to test anymore in order to see what may be the problem. Is it somehow a problem from the processor?, any incompatibility in the system?
    I saw that when making the regular updates for windows, on one particular update the system crashes giving me the same BSOD that bugs me (note thet the system does this problem imediatly after a clean install with no updates, and after the updates are installed)
    I've installed windows about 5 or 6 times on this configuration. Not once crashed or hanged during installation and in windows... in applications, never hanges or crashes into the same applications... they work just fine... only when I am using some media and downloading.... it happens at a total random time between a few minutes and even one hour. Sometimes if I am lucky I watch an entire movie while downloading and nothing happens... I just don't get it.
    Ah.. and when I get BSODs it never is the same error. Or it's a memory adress (stop error 0x0029940<random at adress 0x41625753<random), or it's a win32.sys, or it's a ntfs.sys, or some other file stored in windows directory.
    Please tell me what should I try? any DOS or Windows programs that may stress the CPU in order to see if it's OK please just help me somehow, any ideea will be good.
    I wonder if anyone from MSI could give me a hint or at least tell me about a software they use currently in order to debug a MB problem (if t's possible to do so).
    Thanks

    Same problems here.
