MSI GE600 Problem/Questions

Hi first of all, my problem is when i play a game fps are fine and in a moment they drop from 60 to 30 (same example if i have 20 drops to 10) exactly to 50% all the time and then they go back to normal having the camera all the time in same place, when i went to the msi official web page i checked if there were newest drivers..
Ati mobility raedon hd 5730.
current drivers version: 8.683.0.0
latest drivers version: 8.733.2.0000
wondering if worth updating them or not.
Another question is, im thinking to change WDC WD5000BEVT-22A0R for SSD, i would like if i can put an ssd to my laptop.. i guess i can put an ssd 2.5" sata

I think i know where the problem come from, temperature processor reaches 90º and a little bit upper dunno what to do

  • MSI 925XE BIOS 1.3 to 1.4 Upgrade problem/question

    Hi,
    Today I upgraded my board from BIOS 1.3 to 1.4 (successfully, *phew*). The BIOS page on the MSI site states that it fixes some problems, but nothing related to temperature sensors is mentioned:
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=635&kind=1
    Now the actual problem/question is that with BIOS v1.3 my full load temp was roughly 65 degrees celcius (3.4GHz LGA775 CPU). Now with v1.4 my full load temperature shows up as 47-48 degrees celcius.
    This of course doesnt seem like a bad thing at first, lower temp = good, but I cant help but wonder whether the temperature was being inaccurately shown in 1.3, or whether it is being shown wrongly now with 1.4. A drop in full load temp of about 18 degrees celcius sure raises some questions.
    If anyone knows anything about this, Id appreciate any feedback. Also if there is some kind of tech support email address that MSI has (I couldnt find one on the site), could you please pass it to me, thanks.
    I didnt post my entire system specs because really all the other components are irrelevant, I didnt change the setup in any way other than the BIOS. If I needed to post some addition info, tell me what it is, and I will.
    Thank you.

    Sorry that I didnt reply for a while. Busy weekend. Anyways...
    What kind of chassis cooling? When as I said the case is open right now cause Im still experimenting with everything, so really its like no chassis at all for now. What kind of fan do I use with the XP-120? Its a quiet fan, I cant seem to find the box. If Im not mistaken, its the green version of this:
    http://www.thermaltake.com/dcfans/led/thunderblade120.htm
    And finally... Yes of course I was able to fit the XP120 on the motherboard, how else would I be running the comp hehe? BTW, I wouldnt necessarily recommend it to others though, the installation was very problematic. But still, its possible.

  • MSI GE600 Drivers of ATI 5730

    Hi all and sorry for my english.
    I have a MSI GE600-023
    My question is simply :
    can i install the generic driver of ATI =>  http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx for my GE600
    or
    I must use obligatory the MSI driver => http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=nbdriver&maincat_no=135&prod_no=2017
    Thx for your answer.

    I recently found that the ge600 can be successfully updated to catalyst 12.6 (june 2012) with a method very similar to pmignault's solution. The only difference is an extra step to install 11.8 drivers in between. Going from msi drivers to 12.6 directly will not work.
    Here's how I got it to work on a fresh win7 x64 install:
    1. Install 5730 drivers from msi (6/28/10 release)
    2. Reboot and go into bios. Set graphics options to "PEG"
    3. Go into windows 7 and install catalyst 11.8 whql (i'm not allowed to post links, but search "amd catalyst 11.8 whql guru3d forums" in google. should be the first result)
    4. Reboot and go into windows 7 again. Now install 12.6 whql (got it from guru3d forums as well)
    5. Reboot and go into bios. Set graphics back to "SG"
    6. Enjoy
    Notes:
    -Do not uninstall any drivers in between steps. Install everything over what is already there (this is usually not advised, but it's the only way you can preserve graphics switching for ge600)
    -For all the installations, I chose the express option which installs everything in the package. I tried just installing the graphics driver and CCC, but it didn't work out for me
    -I couldn't get this to work with the newest 12.8 drivers, but I was satisfied with 12.6 since i was previously stuck with 11.8's. I'll keep trying as new driver releases come out.

  • MSI never answers questions

    Our company have bought a lot of MSI boards over the years, but now we are going to start buying boards elsewhere.
    MSI boards are usually good boards, but whenever there is a problem with a board, MSI never answer questions that we may have.
    I understand that thousands of people are writing them emails everyday, but Asus, Gigatech, Epox etc. always answers our questions, even if it take a week or two or three.
    As of this date we have never recieved 1 (not 1) reply from MSI ever, and that is not acceptable.
    For instance - the last month we have tried to get an answer to why Adaptec RAID and MSI k7D Master do not work - but as always MSI do not answer.
    My advice - do not go for MSI, but buy from Asus, Epox or someone else.

    Yes, I understand your frustration. Personally, I've had an ok experience with MSI so far. As it stands, I've had one board go bad on me and I had it replaced from the supplier no problem. It took about a week.
    However, I can see why you're fed up with MSI. They have been nothing but distant in relation to the many suggestions that have been repeated ad nauseum on this message board, for instance, such as was the case with the PCI speeds. It took many months for MSI to even try to fix that problem. With BIOS 2.6, I hear the problem has been slightly corrected but still needs a lot more in order to join the ranks of other more worthy boards.
    I too am disappointed in MSI. With the millions of $ they possess, you would think that they would set a decent customer help line with a bunch of English-speaking people. Instead, we are met with people who do not even understand one of the most widely spoken languages in the world and therefore cannot even fix whatever problems or conflicts arise.
    Abit, Asus and other board makers have proven that the PCI bug can easily be fixed. However, MSI engineers have done absolutely nothing in good faith until now. After being a witness to their amazingly blatant indifference to the message board members' complaints, I have no choice but to agree.
    What is more, Asus does publish beta BIOSes while MSI does not. So if one major bug is the process of being corrected, anybody at Asus can enjoy the fixes right away, while we have to wait an eternity ro reap the benefits.
    Even though my personal experience so far has been good, I have to admit that I have not experienced the frustration you have unfortunately encountered due to the fact that I haven't used any RAID or SCSI cards. I did not see how poor the scores were or which improvements were needed. In fact, I don't have a single card plugged into my motherboard right now.
    However, with my next upgrade, that will most likely change and since I cannot seem to rely on such a big company as MSI to correct the problems for which they are responsible on their own products, I can't see this as being an encouraging sign for me to spend more of my hard-earned money on faulty products that I'm beta-testing, as well as non-existent customer support and late or non-existent patches/BIOS updates.
    It is never too late for a company to change its image, but in reality, MSI screwed themselves over by deciding to ignore the public, which has been paying MSI employees during all this time. It is sad that the state of certain company ethics is poor.
    The differences between each nForce board were minimal at best. I will therefore see no problems with switching products. I'll definitely return to MSI if and only if they ever change their ways. For now, I'm disappointed and will be shaking my head in disgust until the situation improves to my satisfaction, if that ever occurs.
    Harsh, yes. But also true.

  • Re: MSI GE600 Drivers?

    Hi
    first sorry for my english  :D
    i`m going to buy soon a MSI GE600 and i have some questions about the drivers
    the last drivers released by MSI (2010/06/28) (http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=nbdriver&maincat_no=135&prod_no=2017) has included for the HD5730 the last drivers released by ATI (2010/06/16) (http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/radeonmob_win7-64.aspx) ?
    to update to the last MSI drivers, must i only execute de setup.exe and install? or must i first uninstall the old drivers and then install the new drivers?
    thanks

  • MSI GE600 - Simple Communication Controller Drivers

    Hi,
    I recently purchased two MSI GE600 notebooks.  The notebook came with Windows 7 Home Premium, which I replace with Windows 7 Ultimate.  My problem is that I'm missing a driver for "Simple Communication Controller"
    I have installed all the drivers provided by MSI on their website, but still can't figure out what I'm missing.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Few problems/questions! (cover flow, album art...etc)

    Ok I finally added my songs to my new IPOD (replaced my old one) and this is my first Ipod with video, color...etc. Its the IPOD Classic 80 GIG.
    Well I am having a few problems/questions:
    ---Why when I hit "Get album art" does it ONLY get art for my videos? It doesn't get any for all 1,500+ songs! Is it because they aren't downloaded from Itunes? If so then why does it do it for the movies then? They aren't from ITunes either!
    ---With Cover Flow I updated the Album Art myself and have about 700 songs with art now. But I have two problems.
    1. It won't display all 700 songs under Cover Flow!
    2. It won't show them in order by song name! Can I change that?!? If not then how is it showing them by? What do I need to change?
    ---Are there any other video types supported besides that on Mpeg4 and that other weird type? If not why not? Its a pain to have to convert everything. Its almost not worth having this video IPOD if you have to go through sop much effort just to watch 1 stupid video. I mean I spent more money on extra programs now for music and videos then I did on the IPOD almost.
    ---Is there any way to transfer your music from one IPOD to another? I know some people say you can't but why? What about people like me who have music ripped from our own cds and NOTHING from ITunes? Its a REAL pain having to rerip all the cds, put them back on, rename all the songs, fix all the info...etc. Its taken me 4 days now. Apple needs to think about a "IPOD TO IPOD" music transfer kinda program.
    ---How do you get pics on the IPOD without having to keep them on your PC? I notice it has to SYNC them every time I have it plugged into the PC! But if I tell it NOT to sync pics anymore then they won't stay on the IPOD if turn that option off and unplug the IPOD. Theres got to be another way to add them.

    Cover flow on the ipod can only be done (as far as I know) on Album by Artist Name. On iTunes you can change it around

    much like the email above, i am having trouble importing movies --all taken with my same nikon camera and uploaded to iphoto-- from iphoto08 to imovie08. i did a software update today and half the movies i wanted from iphoto, somehow, ended up on imovie. not the half i need to work with, by the way. just came back from christmas with the family. the first time my dad has seen my son. the first time my wife has seen my dad. lots of pictures. my dad wants copies. i got great ideas about making him a DVD... in imovie, i choose, "import movies", follow the steps, create a new event AND... no movie clips show up in my new event... BUT, when i click "mac HD" on my desktop and go the "imovie events", i see the movies is just supposedly imported to imovie as files and can watch them. doesn't help me much when trying to create a movie to send to my dad. no video is played in imovie. HELP HELP HELP!!! i went so far as to trash my 15 movies from iphoto because i thought perhaps the computer was seeing them as photos and not movies. right now my vacation movies are on my desktop. how can i get them to show up in imovie and start my project? HELP HELP HELP!!!

    I think you have set your iPod to an option which everytime you connect it to itunes, it will delete all songs on it and replace it with songs currently in your library. What you need to do is click on the ipod on the sidebar, and on the bottem of the new page click the tick box that says "Manually manage music and video". That way you can delete old songs from your computer and they will stay on your ipod everytime you connect it. Hope that helps ^_^

  • 5610 problems/questions

    Okay, i have a 5610, firmware v9.4, and i have the foll problems/questions...
    1) The calender and alarm systems sometimes refuse to work. In the calender, i put reminders, but often it never gives any alarm, even though i have set it to alert me at such-and-such time. The alarm too, simply doesn't work at times. any solutions?
    2) On starting the phone, while updating the library, the phone temporarily gets hanged. After about 5 minutes, its back to normal, and the library is updated, but in those 5 mins i can't do anythinh. any solutions?
    3)On connecting my cell to the comp, i usually use memory storage mode, to access the memory card in windows explorer, cuz its faster than pc suite. afer disconnecting, my phone often says "not enough memory on phone. update cancelled", referring to the music player library update. any solutions?
    4)In menu>steeings>security>security level, what do the options do, i've not noticed any difference...

    security level is to either set passwords for start up of phone ,keypad locks,lock code for phone this enable you to put a pin on the phone where if it was to get stolen the person would need a pin the activate the phone with another sim in it
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

  • PLEASE report what you've already tried when posting problems/questions!

    A lot of threads have a common theme:
    (1) The first post describes a problem, or asks a question.
    (2) The second (or third, or fourth) post suggests doing or trying something.
    (3) The next response, from the original poster, says "Oh, I already tried that!"
    Please, when describing a problem or asking a question, be reasonably detailed about the scenario, what you did, what results you got, WHAT YOU'VE ALREADY TRIED, etc.
    Vague undetailed problems/questions, not describing the N steps you've already taken to try to resolve it, etc. just waste time and bandwidth all around!

    Hi Doug;
    If we are going to start of list of things NOT to do when posting a question, the one I always think is the absolute silliest is when they say I am having trouble with an application and never ever tell up what application they are talking about as if we have a crystal ball which is going to tell us what mythical application it is. Well it turns out generally my crystal ball is foggy just then so I have to ask what are you talking about here.

         MSI motherboard problems
    « on: 17 November 2004, 06:34:44 am »   
    I just recently built a computer.
    When I turn the computer on it stops at the MSI Platinum screen.
    When I hit the reset button the computer reboots into windows. (Most of the times)
    I am not over clocking.
    I have loaded the defaults in the BIOS.
    I have flashed the BIOS, updated all motherboard drivers, and video drivers.
    I have run memtest 23 passes and no errors.
    I have a thermaltake power supply 400 watts.
    There are no beeps codes at post. The case didn't come with a speaker.
    I have installed windows xp media center twice.
    Could this just be an unresolved Bios issue or a bad board?
    The computer runs great except for the startup problem.
    Any suggestion would be helpful.
    12 volt rail = 12.14
    3.3 volt = 3.26
    5 volt = 5
    vcore 1.5 = 1.48 - 1.52
    Temps:
    cpu = 38 - 41c
    case =21c
    All the rails are within the limits.
    CPU fan spinning at 3258

    Try stripping down your system to bare minimum. Disconnect all CD drives, Floppy and HDD from your mainboard. Remove all un-needed cards. So you should have only the mainboard, CPU and RAM and a graphics card. Connect PSU to mainboard and power up. Now your PSU should be more than enough to power just that. Does it still lock???
    If it does'nt then it something to do with one of the drives or optional cards you are fitting.
    If it  does still lock then it something to do with the main components.
    I once saw a similar issue to this which maybe unrelated but thats why i asked you to disconnect drives. The issue i saw was down to the HDD not being detected on cold boot. Thus hanging the system, if you left it long enough it carried on and then failed to boot. But press the reset button and it would detect the HDD and load windows, until you switched the PC off again and the cycle would repeat. Now that was fixed by getting a BIOS update. This may not having anything to do with your issue but might be worth a look trying what i said above.

  • Msi k2n9 diamond raid problems/questions

    Hi, yesterday I bought 2 hard drives western digital 1 TB  Caviar Blue 32mb cache each and wanted to make a raid stripe array, so they work as one and are twice as fast.
    I had problems installing windows XP, so I tried windows 7. It detected the raid array, partitioned it, and installed the windows, but in the device manager I got other devices -> RAID Controller and no drivers for it. I also have a Coprocessor, but that may be the chipset drivers, that I didn't install yet.
    The windows 7 is currently installed on the array, but I can't really see the performance difference. All disk information tools say it's currently 32 cache, shouldn't it be 64? And the speed is the same ~ 40-60 mb/s copy rate, 100mb/s sata-sata transfer rate.
    With windows XP I tried installing the extra drivers from the web site from a floppy drive during installation, but the installation didn't detect the array at all.
    Can somebody give me a clue how to fix my problem? And if you have any idea what software can I use to check the raid transfer rate and proper performance?

    Quote from: Fredrik on 28-October-10, 02:45:27
    Hello! It is a bit "dangerous" to help someone without knowing what the system looks like. What little you said, K2N9 motherboard, doesn't exist. Have a look here http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=prodarchive&maincat_no=1 Go to the title "AM2", because a fair guess lands you there. In order to help with your driver questions we need to know what the drivers are for, you see. An alternative would be to go to Nvidia's site, where you can pick most things you need: www.nvidia.com.
    Coprocessor? Might it be - if you in fact have a processor - there are more than one core?
    The cache thing is a little new to me, but one must remember you have one disk now, not two. Partitioning deals with the first bytes of data on this single hard disk, and not with the "RAM" memory.
    Noticing a difference can be hard, but if you were to return to no-RAID status you will, for a little while, hate the longer boot-up time and slower start of programs. Since it runs at all, 100 mb/s read time is not out of order.
    well i misplaced the numbers, it's k9n2, it's not that big mistake, and I know my system well. I have two disks, but one array, and i think the cache must be 2x, because the idea of raid 0, simultaneously writing bits on both disks. The logical idea is that if you write something to e drive with 32 mb cache you will be able to write the same thing on two drives with 32 mb cache each which makes it 64 mb
    The coprocessor part is solved, after I installed the chipset drivers, but the raid thing is still there.

  • MSI GE600 HD5730 Graphic Problems

    Display driver amdkmdap stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
    http://img4.imageshack.us/f/problempl.png/ <- my event viewer logs
    My GE600, Around 5 months old, has been giving me this problem for that period of time. The screen will blackout for around 10 seconds and flash for a few seconds before returning to what i was doing. But now, since i started on a new game that requires alot of power (GTA IV) when this happens, i will get returned to my desktop, and my game will crash. I confirmed that that is the problem - the most recent crash was due to that error.
    The voltage when im playing the game is around 64-7x degree Celsius
    My GPU Usage has reached a maximum of 100% but im not sure when it was .
    Heres a list of things that i had tried:
    Reinstalled Drivers
    Increased Fan Speed
    Scanned for virus
    Installed all latest win7 updates
    All Drivers are up to date
    Please assist me. Thanks

  • MSI GE600 touch keys problem

    I recently bought an MSI 600 laptop and have had some problems with the touch keys. Mainly, they seem to like to stop working after switching the laptop off and on, or hibernating it. Not after sleep, though.
    And by not working I don't mean only pressing them having no effect in Windows, but there being no reaction during boot too. Normally, they light-up for a moment if you press them even as early as during the "press del to enter bios" phase, but they don't even work then, nothing lights up. I thought it was some connection issue, a loose cable, e.t.c., but right before that they work perfectly, and I doubt just hibernating would cause a cable to move enough to disconnect them.
    The laptop has Windows 7 Ultimate x64 installed on it, but it seems to be more of a bios/firmware issue.
    As for BIOS updates, I flashed the laptop with the 10a bios revision, newest one available, but, due to the site not having any info about that, removed the battery only for some 10 seconds. Later, trying to solve this issue, I reflashed the EC, same version as initially (18) and reset it by removing the battery for half an hour. Finally, I reflashed the bios to 10a again and this time restarted the EC by removing he battery for half an hour again.
    I've been unable to fix this issue by myself so far.
    Right now, for example, I left the laptop in sleep mode for the night, it switched to hibernation at some point. When I turned it back on, the touch keys weren't working. I turned it off, then back on, as they were still not working, I turned it off again during the configuration screen, then turned it back on and this time they started working.
    It's not a huge issue, but it's certainly annoying to have to restart my brand new laptop sometimes a few times just to get the buttons to work.
    Ah, right before the last bios reflash I was having problems with graphics switching - it would switch once, either to the ATI or INTEL card, and then refuse to switch again before restart. Reflashing the bios solved that problem.

  • MSI FX5600XT problems with agp 4x and other stuff

    Well
    I just bought myself a MSI FX5600XT-TD128
    I had a Hercules (guillemot) GEFORCE2 PRO (clock higher than GTS and slower than Ultra).
    I'm not sure if my previous videocard (the gf2pro) would run stable @ 4x or run @ 4x at all.. I know my motherboard is capable of agp 4x, the old videocard I am not sure it was..
    WEll, I bought the msi, plugged in and no post.
    so I take the card out, put it back in, posted... 5mins later, crash..
    No post..
    So I put the old videocard in (gf2pro) and disable agp4x in the bios, plug the msi back in and running so far stable...
    My motherboard is an IWILL KK266 (via kt133a).. very nice motherboard running on a not-so-compatible-with-it athlon xp 1600+ (1.4ghz)
    The mobo problems with the cpu (processor) are limited to having to press 'reset' switch to boot (or else pc will power up but no boot).
    Well my question is, is the agp 4x problem related to this msi video card in general, or to a faulty video card I *might* have (so I can exchange this one) or is it related to the motherboard???
    Also, can someone explain to me the diferences between FX5600, FX5600XT AND FX5600 ULTRA?
    Also, explain to me please the 'V,T,D,R' models differences too?
    And Last but not least, what is the best driver for the fx5600xt and winxp??
    I'm running msi latest (53.03, I installed it just to test em), I had nvidia's 52.16 prior to that.
    Thanks for all ur help

    This can also be from a weak PSU, which would be even further taxed by adding the power hungry FX card.
    Might need a stronger PSU.
