MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum + Boot problems.

System Setup, so far:
MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum
Athlon XP 3000+ Barton, 333FSB
Thermal Take Volcano7+ Fan
PowerColor Radeon 9800Pro, 128MB
GeiL 1x512MB, PC3200, DDR400
Antec True Blue 480W
Max: +5V=38A | -5V=0.5A | +12V=28A | -12V=1.0A | +3.3V=30A | +5V SB=2A
Min: +5V=0A | -5V=0A | +12V=0.8A| -12V=0A | +3.3V=0A | +5V SB=0A
The problem is, that the screen is blank and there's no error beeps, when I fire up the system.
The D-bracket keeps giving me the 1-0-0-0 (Early Chipset Initialization)
So far I have tried:
Reseat the CPU, didnt help. (This is the 2nd (or 3rd) CPU on this board)
Tried diffence slot, for the memory.
Tried another memory type.
Tried another GFX.
In every case, the D-bracket gives me the 1-0-0-0.
Just tried to fire up the system, without the CPU/MEMORY/GFX, and still I get the 1-0-0-0 (Early Chipset Initialization)
Is the mainboard dead then?
Does anybody know of a solution, to this problem? Or any ideers at all?
Thanks

Hi there ...
I have more or less the same problem here
I have an old trusty K7t Pro V1 motherboard . I installed an IBM Deskstar drive ,
The mother board started to boot but hang on the IDE part .
re-booted and all I get now is the system beeping all the time , with red green red red ... (looking from top to bottom)
I got anothe board from ebay , installed it . all ok untill I connected my IBM Drive again , Now the same
Just beeps fast , and red green red red .. (looking from top top bottom)
Looks like some bhow this crap disk has blown something on my board ,
I think I have tried everything .
Anything I should try before binning it .
Yes the cpu is ok
Memory is ok
Thanks lads
Just wished my first post could have been a happier one

MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum (No monitor output)

Hi,
I recently purchased the MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum along with a AMD XP 3200, 512mb DDR Memory, ATI Radeon 9250 256mb and a Maxtor 80Gb Hard disk.
I followed the included instruction manual closely and feel that everything was installed correctly. However, when I went to boot the computer, there was no output on my monitor.
The LED on the monitor was green for a few seconds, it then went orange. The screen itself was black, there was no BIOS screen.
I have tried 2 monitors, which eliminates them as the problem, I have also tried 2 graphics cards, which also eliminates them.
The other components seem to be running fine.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

PSU is fine. As it powers up the computer fine.
not really, as the computer doesn't POST. Is your problem caused by your PSU?

MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum + Corsair mem = hell

Alright, Last christmas I got an MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum Mobo. I had an AMD Athlon XP 3000+
w/333mhz FSB. I was using cheapo generic ram which worked, but had horrible performance.
So I bought the TWINX1024-3200XL, Corsair 1GB(2x512) PC3200 400mhz DDR-Ram.
So........when I set that up, I got HUGE instability problems. While playing Half-Life 2, the game
would randomly go BSOD, which I didn't get with the cheapo ram. So I went into the options and
I changed the bios settings from By SPD (which set it to 200mhz fsb) to Auto (which changed it
to 166mhz after detecting my 166mhz fsb cpu), at which point the instability ended. But every
time I tried to run it at 400mhz, tons of crashing and BSODs in HL2 as well as windows. So I've
been using it at 333mhz for the past 6 or so months without any problems, aside from the fact
that I can't run my $300 ram at stock speed.
After reading some threads here and at other forums, I learned that apparently my
motherboard doesn't allow the cpu/ram to run async. Which would make some degree of
sense, since when they ran sync, both at 333mhz, I encountered no crashing. However, I just
bought an AMD Athlon XP 3200+ w/400mhz fsb and I was hoping that the problems would be
over. Alas, no. With the bios set to By SPD at 400mhz, Half-Life 2 (which is what I use to test
system stability, since Memtest 86, Prime 95, etc. All ran through all the tests and for over 24
hours without a single error, then the second I play HL2, it crashes) crashes within 1 minute. So
I angrily restart and change the bios settings, this time I set it to Auto, which is also 400mhz now due to the 400mhz fsb CPU. I was actually able to play Half-Life 2 flawlessly for about 45 minutes, I made it past the driving phase on the buggy, shot down the chopper, then I eliminated all resistance near the crane. Unfortunately, once everything was dead silent and I pressed R to reload, BSOD. >=|
Is my motherboard a piece of crap that doesn't support the ram, or is the ram bad? Has anybody else been able to run these two (MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum + Corsair PC3200 Performance Ram) together with perfect stability? Please help! I'm going nuts. =*|
Many Thanks!

well, for the errors. In half-life 2, after however much playtime, the screen will just randomly go blue, without any official windows message or error code, forcing me to manually restart with the reset button. It's done this for the most part. Other times, when I change the settings, the game will just boot me back to the desktop, giving me a visual basic runtime error. Oddly enough, when I set the ram to 166mhz fsb, the game is totally stable. I've also just updated to the newest bios 11.50 and tried all of the previous settings as well as the "optimized defaults" and "fail-safe defaults" all still result in the crashing.
Yeah, I've tested other games. The results were mixed though. certain games like Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 would lockup, other games like command and conquer generals seemed to mostly be stable, with a few random crashes. The problem is that I haven't really gotten any true BSODs in games, I just get lockups. However, windows would give BSODs, but they seemed like they were driven by faulty hardware, since it would be random and would go away entirely once I underclocked the ram.
Other times in the past when I've run the ram at 200mhz fsb, windows would randomly crash when I was browsing the web. In those cases it would give me a stop message and an error number. But I haven't gotten then so far today. I can't remember what all the errors were, but there were about 2-3 random crashes related to ntfs.sys and other system files. So at first, I thought maybe it was just a windows problem, but I had just freshly formatted and reinstalled windows, so it seemed unlikely. And of course, the second I changed it back to 166mhz fsb, I was able to keep my computer on for a week, playing half-life 2, doom 3, command and conquer generals, as well as tons of other games and general web browsing without a single incident. So the problem, although highly vague, seems to be related directly to the ram, if just by the fsb change.
I dunno, these are really really odd problems, never encountered these before in like 6 years of tweaking my comps, so I'm guessing that it's either just an incompatibility with my motherboard/ram (in which case I'm screwed), my mobo is broken, or my ram is broken. I think my only real option left, now that I've bought a new $130 cpu to match the ram is to RMA the ram and hope that it somehow works. But the fact that it's been able to pass prime95 and memtest86 flawlessly makes me concerned as to whether or not corsair will be able to diagnose a problem, if there is one, with the ram if I do RMA it. sigh.
I'm not sure if my video card is underpowered, since I have a 550watt psu and the radeon 9800 isn't too much of a hog. But I think I may RMA that as well. damn, I dunno.
*update*
Correction, it seems that now I have a 200mhz fsb cpu, setting the ram to 6:5 for 166mhz causes windows to almost immediately lock up. I'm guessing that's part of the whole unable to run the cpu/ram async thing.
Also, when I tried changing the latency to 2.5 and 3.0, I got the following error:

Help with MSI K7n2 Delta2 Platinum

Hi everyone,
I need some help with my system, actually I'm having troubles with my machine, often it restarts or freezes so I have to restart it manually.I own a MSI K7n2 Delta2 Platinum, AMD Athlon XP 3000+, 1 GB DDR-400 CORSAIR, ATI Radeon 9800 PRO 128MB AGP. Recently I did a clean install of Windows XP but usually I work for an hour and suddenly it restarts, and after logging in, Windows reports a log event problem; I think I have this problem because of the drivers, so I would like you to help me. Where I can get the best/last drivers for the mainboard and video card? Should I flash the bios? Is common this kind of problems? Help me please.
Thanks!

sortieins, please start an new thread and make a complete listing of your compoenents including your PSU and the amps on the various voltage rails, especially the +12V rail(s).

Msi k7n2 delta2-FSR and problems with memories(ddr 400);help me!!!

hello!!!!.
I am very frustrated because is imposible that memories work fine to 200*2.I´ve tried twinmos and now ocz premier ddr-400.When i used memtest i have a lot of errors and frozen in windows.
If i choose vdim 3.30 memtest no errors but this is a voltage very high.I don´t now what can I do.
Is a bug of this motherboard?
In other forum tell me that this motherboard don´t work good with memory to 400 but the motherboard has dual channel.
i need help.
thanks!

how can you have a stable OC if you have memory errors?
i don´t Know but prime no errors.
Quote from: Stu on 26-March-06, 01:48:25
forget about the OC for now, and get it working properly at stock speeds, then you can worry about getting an OC right
I have tell than 166 cpu(default values in bios),there are a lot of errors(more of one hundred and froozen in windows) in memtest.

[nForce] K7N2 Delta2 Platinum will not boot up

i have a new K7N2 Delta2 Platinum, a new computer case, and just looking to transfer my old hard drive that was on my old mobo to this new mobo and computer case. I am running XP pro w/sp2. i have installed a new dvd burner and a new cd burner. these items where not previously connected to old pc. I have a MSI-FX5500 video card installed as well. now keep in mind that i already have my old hard drive with XP pro on it, when i go connect all the devices and power on the pc, i am able to go into the bios, it recognizes my 2gigs of corsair memory, my hard drive is recognized, both my cdr/w and my dvdr/w drives are recognized, however, when it starts to load XP from my hard drive, a very quick blue screen comes and goes and i am unable to read the error message. I was wondering is there anyway to slow down or freeze the screen so that I can read the error message? Also, more information about the setup, since i am unable to load XP pro that i already have on my hard drive, I am unable to install the software drivers for either the motherboard or the video card....... Any point of direction would be greatly appreciated. I have built several computers from the ground up before and this is the first time I have ran into this problem........ thanks

since the hard drive was set up on your old mobo then it'll not work straight off on the new one as the details in the registry will be different. One way around it is to boot up off the xp cd and select to install xp and then when it finds your old install on the drive select repair the old installation and this should sort it and will keep all your data thats saved on there.
Once into windows remember to uninstall ALL the old drivers and install all the new ones or problems will arrise and force you into doing a full fresh install.

Problems with K7N2 Delta2 Platinum

Hello!
Just bought new mobo, MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum and I am trying to get it working. My problem: Computer starts OK but there's no signal from GPU and no diagnose sound (the beeb when the computer starts). No picture nor sound. What should I do? I've tried another Graphics card but it didn't help. Should I jumper the processor somehow?
Technical specs:
-AMD Athlon 3000plus
-MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum
-1 gig 400Mhz Samsung DDR-RAM
-Antec Sonata case and TruePower 380W Power
-Ati Radeon X800 Pro GPU
The probelm might be in the PSU's 12V line, because I had a problem plugging it to the mobo. It didn't go to the bottom, I had to put some force for the effort .
Thanks you all trying to manage this for me

rickshaw,
The DLED indicated RAM that is not compatible with nForce. I would still recommend trying nForce Approved RAM to be sure.
Take Care,

ohm. I found it myself already. Are you 100% sure it was the "RAM is not compatible with nForce"-led because there seems to be DDR
400 SAMSUNG 512MB 64M X 64 3 M368L6423ETM-CCC on the list and my memory is labeled M368L6523BTM-CCC so it appears to be quite identic to the one on the list? So many Samsungs on the list, why would my memory do any difference ?

@Klondike K7N2 Delta2 Platinum, new owner.

Hi.
I am kinda old but maybe not as old as you . Experience before...
Much regard to your efforts for writing some exhaustive information on the MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum. I think I would be more than completely lost without your help http://www.nforcershq.com/forum/here-vp624299.html#624299. Now at least my system is running.
I have some specific points, and please forgive me if I'm asking something you may have answered. Got kids running around, that kind of thing. Have to run out and pick up milk in a minute, life is busy, you get it... sure? Any links are helpful too.
The existing server had an XP software raid (hack some dm* files a bit, there is a toms hardware article on it here http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/windowsxp-make-raid-5-happen,925-2.html on a Shuttle AN35 Ultra 400 and a Barton Athlon XP 2600+ 0343.
But it's a barebones board so I thought I would 'Upgrade' the file server with an 'everything' board. Enter the K7N2 Delta2 Platinum. Enter also a 0310 2500+ which I patched the mobile jumper for fun and cut all of L6. The NFORCE2 seems to ignore these settings, and swapping in the 2600+ completely stock doesn't seem to change anything below:
Questions I have which I have not got answered yet (and running 1/20/2005 bios the board came with): I can't adjust the vCore! I can only set it in the bios but not in Windows, where I have 8rdavcore - this dynamically lowered my FSB and vcore when the system was idle. 8rdavcore lists the board but there is no driver in the drop-down: this is not the giveio.sys driver mentioned on the home page, it is a driver to interface with the vcore and other settings on the board.
With your recommendations klondike the system at least boots reliably. Already I am disappointed in the MSI versus the Shuttle for this reason alone, no vcore and the settings seem really picky in the MSI Bios. The shuttle though had a periodic problem with crashes which I never figured out. LC 6420GP 80plus PS, ATI 9250 AGP, Team Value memory (identical in timing to the Value memory in your post Klondike), 3ware 9500S-8 hardware raid, NEC USB 5 port USB card and a 3com 10/100, all moved to the new system, with the 3ware newly introduced replacing the software raid. Removes the annoying rebuild when the system crashes out, prevents major disk data glitches.
I want this system to dynamically underclock, but as yet, I cannot adjust the vcore down. For example, Corecenter, or nTune, has the field for vcore and other values, but except for FSB, they are locked, and 8rdavcore log shows it cannot load the driver. The Shuttle went to under 100 fsb with a low voltage dynamically, I think vcore 1.25 with the Athlon XP Barton 2600+, and run super-cool and use about 75 watts of power vs 110w.
Any ideas?

Came back to the machine, swapped back in the Athlon XP Barton 2600+, took a look in the BIOS (don't know if I changed anything, probably), and now the vCore is greyed out again in 8rdavcore. "No ATXP1 found."
Edit: I used the CMOS jumper to reset settings several times to no effect.
Sorry I did not get the log when it was working. I will next time! I assume where it says "not responding" has something to do with the problem.
Here is the log from 8rdavcore:

Something Missing on my K7N2 Delta2 Platinum

Hi, The Board Works great not a problem so far, but theres something missing, in the package came all the stuff mentioned on the manual and on the webpage of the board, but there's no way to know the combination led info of the D'Braket 2, I have search everywere and no sings of that info, the boar came with two manuals one is the User's Guide and the secod is the Test Report, and some other paper about the Spects of the board and info about the Core Cell capabilities but no sings of the D'Bracket2 Definition Leds inf, I wonder if any of you have this datashet becouse having a D'Bracket2 whitout the definition of the led combinations is like Having a pece of junk that shines so I could use your'e help on this by the way, I have read in other post that all the led combinations are different deppending on the model of the board so, keep in mind that the board in question is a MSI K7N2 Delta2 Platinum.... cya

K7N2 Delta2 Platinum won't boot

I recently bought a K7N2 Delta2 Platinum board (product specifications at http://tinyurl.com/b7u57), but I can't get it to boot. I've searched on these forums but can't find anything that might help me.
WHAT HAPPENS
With just the processor, one RAM stick and graphics card connected, I'm able to turn the PC on with the front switch. The front lights come on and the processor fan starts, but there's no "bleep" and no signal going to the monitor. If I try booting with a hard drive connected, the hard drive does not make the "clicking" sound that it's supposed to.
MY HARDWARE
PSU: 480w (I've also tried with my old 400w PSU)
Processor: Athlon 2800 XP
RAM: 512Mb PC2700 DDR (motherboard manual says it supports PC2700 RAM)
Graphics card: Radeon 9200
All of the above work fine with my old board (also an MSI).
I've also tried my sister's RAM and graphics card with the new one, but it still won't boot.
The jumpers on the board are all at the factory default settings.
Can anyone think of anything that I should try before asking for a replacement?
Thanks in advance!

The D-bracket displays one green light and four red ones:
GR
RR
Which according to the online manual (there's no explanation of the D-bracket codes in the manual provided) means "early chipset initialization". Another thread I found from Googling these words suggests that the problem might be related to my RAM. But the stick I'm using works fine with my other board and I've tried a different stick too.
My PSU is 230v. It has a sticker on it which says "DC output max", followed by the following table:
+3.3v   28a
+5v   35a
+12v   25a
-5v   0.5a
-12v   0.8a
+5vsb   2.5a
Does this mean anything to you?

How to boot from SATA on a K7N2 Delta2 Platinum

Hi guys,
here is my problem, I've just bought a brand new HD Samsung SATA II 2504C, once connected to the MB I can' t boot from it, even if I change the boot sequence.
I have already two HDs connected to IDE ports, under XP I can format it, I can even install a Linus distro such as Elive, but it refuses to boot.
Is there a trick?
K7N2 Delta2 Platinum
BIOS: B5 1/20/2005
AMD 3000+
2 HDs UMDA 133
2 DVD writer LG and SAMSUNG
1 HD on SATA, which causes me troubles.

disable IDE RAID and ensure SATA is enabled in BIOS
disconnect any other IDE HDDs before you install Windows to your SATA drive; they can be reconnected again afterwards.
make sure that the SATA drive is listed first in 'Hard Disk Priority' under 'Boot Order' in BIOS

MSI K7N2 Delta2-FSR & Dual Memory Problems

Just recently I decided to upgrade my girlfriend's computer for her. Upgrade new PROC, MOBO, MEM. The proc is a AMD Athlon BARTON 3000+ OEM, Mobo is the MSI K7N2 Delta2-FSR and MEM is from PQI both are dual channel and in same package (identical) 512MB x 2. I thought it was an easy set up and everything and everything in terms of hook-ups was... I loaded XP and it gave me a crap load of errors, but I manage to load all of XP. Then came installing Adobe softwares, it kept saying "installing...." in an infinte loop and then froze on me. I skipped installing Adobe software and decided to install World of Warcraft Game. When I loaded the game, it popped up with errors installing, but it managed to install. WHen time to play the game; however, it kept crashing, restarting, and freezing. I noticed the system was a little bit laggy even though there was 1 gig of ram. So as a Geek Squad tech I am, I started to tweak and mess with it. I figure it was the MEMORY and I tried it and thought it was bad memory...
Yes it was memory when I tested with MEMTEST86 for dual channel ram, It came up with RED ERRORS all across the screen. So I decided to test each stick individually and each stick PASSED! I even tried each of the different slots on the motherboard and it all passed as SINGLE individual rams. I figure the first test with dual ram was just some mistake, loose RAM or something, so i decided to pop the DUALs right back in, in different combination and I kept seeing Red errors all over as well.
So my conclusion is :: Motherboard is bad. I contacted NEWEGG, but they will not refund my money as it has been over 30 days. I wish I would've known earlier... Anyways, So im stuck with exchanging for same mobo or find answers, but I think doing exchange will not do any good if this is a known problem.

Just to confirm; they are fine together in single channel, slot 1 and slot 2? Dual channel is purple + green slot, i.e slot 1 and 3 or 2 and 3. Or are you saying they can't work together in any combination of slots?
there will be a label on side of your psu stating max amps to +3.3V, +5v and +12v rails, i.e +3.3v = ?A, +5v = ?A, +12v = ?A. For example my psu is: Antec TrueBlue480: 30A/3.3V, 38A/5V, 28A/12V
Maybe your psu is not up to the job
You did load the chipset and graphics drivers didn't you?
You are correct sir... any combination of slots 1&3 or 2&3 will give error.... each as individuals 1,2,or3 will pass. The PSU amps readout are as follow:
+5v 40a Red, +12V1 16A yellow, +3.3v 35A orange, +12v2 18a yellow/black, -5v 0.5a white, -12v 0.5a blue, +5vsb 2.5a purple, pg gray.
I have loaded the chipset drivers from the CD it came with, and the graphics drivers are from ATI.com latest version. I will try and update the Nforce driver from Nvidia's site, but I don't see the chipset as the cause of this problem.
EDIT: In any combination of slots used, the read outof of MEMtest is single channel. Only slots 2&3 will have a read out of DUAL DDR channel 128bits. Slots 2&3 Will still have errors though...

[AMD] problems errors ram with cpu vcore change on k7n2 delta2 platinum

hello
i'm a french new owner of k7n2 delta2 platinum and i got something strange.
I have 2*512 PC3200 cas3 of kingston value ram with voltage 1.75 instead of 1.6v running in dual CAS 2.5/3/3/8 at FSB 195 like the cpu : 2500xp barton.
With occt and memtest86+ i'm stable with a CPU vcore at 1.725.After 195 the computer starts but not really stable. So i put the cpu vcore at 1.75 to put higher fsb and then i get thousands RAM errors with memtest(even if i stay fsb 195). i tried with cas 3/3/3/11 and it was worst. On the bios B5 i tried with different settings : agressive, optimal, 1/1, auto, manual, patch ddr or not...and always the same. My PSU is 450w noname and i've 4 HD 1player 1 burner & a geforce 5200 o/c 10%.
Of course i'm happy to reach 195 but i feel disapointed to be stop with this problem of vcore/ram because i have not problem of temperature with a silent boost for cpu(52°c maxi), 3 fans for the box(35°c maxi) and copper memory heat spreaders for ram.
thanks for your answer

the thing to check is the vdimm voltage for the ram ... i'm pretty sure it should be around 2.6 volts .. try upping it one step
vcore is the voltage to the cpu and doesn't affect the ram

"...So i put the cpu vcore at 1.75 to put higher fsb and then i get thousands RAM errors with memtest..." I would say it's not the v. core but the CPU o/c. that gives that errors, as it make not sence to increase v.core only for itself.
Oh yes it does
The CPU and memory work hand-in-hand. If one is out of sync it can cause the other to start spitting out errors.
You are overclocking and that more of a scientific art, not an exact science.
Components react differently to an entire list of variables, especially the CPU/memory.
What you are trying to do requires trail and error testing however I agree the Kingston memory is holding you back at this point with the clock you are pushing
I would go for the most stable FSB settings that allow Dynamic Overclock to be enabled to SERGEANT before I would go for ultra High FSB because you will peak the system at its highest performance curve when you need the boost, and I would bet money that peak would be higher than any strait FSB over-clock you can hit stable.
Psychologically allot of people think their systems are not running the highest performance it can unless they set the system up at the highest FSB/multiplier and that is simply not true with dynamic overclocking enabled and correctly tuned with the rest of the components.
