MSI K7N2G-LISR

Hey, i just wanna say that i got my MSI K7N2G-LISR MB to day and it's working fine well...almost...i have a CPU:
AMD CPU Athlon XP 2000 1.667GHz Socket-A 266MHz FSB Tray "Thoroughbred"
AND in the bios it is on 1.25 gHz ?
somebody know why it is on automatic. ore something ?(

Are you using the onboard video? Will your monitor support anything more? What drivers are you using with your video?
Give us a rundown on the specs of your machine if you would...use my signature as an example if you want. It'll help us determine how to help you.

MSI K7N2G-LISR Vcore-problems! Anyone?

Hi!
I just bought my new MB the other day. But it won't start if I raise the voltage at the Vcore!!
My CPU is a T-bred XP2100+, 512 MB Twinmos PC3200, and Thermaltake Volcano 7+ (w/modified fan).
I tested these parts at another MB, and reached 2,25 Ghz at 1,775 volt.
However, the MSI-card won't start when I modify the voltage at the vcore. I tried with only 1,625 V and it wouldn't start. The pc and all the fans start up, but the screen i all black.
Can anyone please help me with this one?

well well... I returned the board back to my supplier and got the money back. Won't risk my warranty by volt-modding my card.
I've had these MSI-cards:
K7Pro2a
K7Turbo-R
K7Pro266-R
KT3 Ultra-ARU
K7N2G-LISR
But this time I change to Asus, Epox or Abit.
My T-bred Xp2100+ is running at normal speed, aposed to xp2900+ speed with an increase in the voltage at the Abit NF7-S. It's really a shame that MSI has this problem. I've always liked MSI cards due to their bundles, and full of specifications.
Their lack of Extreme overclocking possibillities has never bothered me, as their little tweaking advantages have been enough for me. But this time... it's just to little..
To bad MSI..

[nForce] MSI K7N2G-LISR chipset fan needed

Hiya, my chipset fan is getting bad and overheating, I'm in the UK, would this work as a replacement http://www.vantec.com.tw/iceberq_copper.html or is there a better and quieter fan etc and has anyone already replaced one on this mobo?. I don't fancy zalman though but a nice fan etc would do and how do I fit it b.t.w please as there arn't any screws on this Mobo for it etc?

Actually, I'm thinking about this if you's lot think it will do the job?

there should be a rj45 socket alongside your sound connection on the back plate.
if there isnt, then u aint got the L part of it.
take the baord back because you didnt get what was being sold under the description. should have no effect on your rights as far as returning it is concerned.

First time computer builder - using K7N2G-LISR

Here is my story:
I am a first time part by part computer builder, I have installed every product except a CPU and Motherboard seperately. This was my first time buying each part on its own and assembling it myself though.
The parts I am using are:
MSI K7N2G-LISR motherboard
Athlon XP 2400
512 MB 2700 DDR Corsair XMS Ram
40 GB Western Digital 7200 RPM HD
Sony 32x CD-Ron
Integrated Graphics
400W Power Supply
Vantec Aeroflow heatsink
I had some trouble installing the heatsink. I had both paste and thermal pads, since it was my first time doing this and thermal pads seemed alot easier, I tried out one of them. I continued putting the PC together and everything was working just fine.
I got to the BIOS and messed around with the settings a bit. I realized I accidently set my HD as slave to the CD-Rom. I also set it to High Performance, and allocated 128 MB of ram to the onboard graphics. Before exiting out of the bios, I checked my CPU temp and it was a whopping 64C/148F. After I powered down, I fixed my HD/CD-Rom to the proper settings, and took off my heatsink.
I removed what was left of the thermal pad and scraped as much away as I could. I then put a little layer of thermal paste on top of the CPU using the credit card method. I had a little trouble putting the heatsink back on, using its side clip.
The computer refuses to boot up at all now.
The diagnostic lights will vary depending on what settings I have, between:
(R= Red, G= Green)
R G
R R
(Memory Detection Test)
I don't know how long it is supposed to sit there, but I gave it a minute. This was the first hang-up I encountered. I had two sticks of 256 MB so I alternated between the two sticks in different DIMMs, but nothing worked.
After screwing around and putting the original settings back (with the HD/CD-Rom) I got this message:
G G
G R
(Testing Real Time Clock)
It hung there for a while too.
I left the HD/CD-Rom configuration, removed the ram, and got:
R G
R G
(Testing base and extended memory)
Again, it just sat.
No matter what I do, I can't seem to get past this stage.
My question is this:
Did I fry my CPU? If not, could you think of something else preventing me from starting up?

Well it's certainly possible that you did fry the CPU but I don't think so at this point...
Do this:
UNPLUG the machine
UNPLUG the MB from the PS
Ground yourself if possible otherwise make sure you have touched METAL on the case prior to unplugging it. And don't walk around on the carpet or shuffle your feet.
Set the HD on the Primary IDE as Single Drive/Master
Set the CDROM on the Secondary IDE as Single/Master
Take off your Heatsink and clean it really well and get ALL of the old goo off of it and the processor. Use Orange Clean as I've found it really does the best job. Put the paste (Arctic Silver II if you can get it) back on and install the fan/heatsink again.
Install 1 stick of memory in slot 3
Plug in the Floppy
Plug in the system fans and the power hookups
Plug in the MB to the PSupply
Find the jumper to reset the CMOS/BIOS and set it to clear
wait the amount of time it says in the manual and set it back. sometimes you have to remove the battery to get it to reset so you might just do that first and then do the jumper
Plug in the PS and start up the system and see what happens.
If it doesn't start you may have fried any number of things in the machine so you'll have to start replacing them one by one to figure out what the problem is.
Hope it works tho!! 8)

K7N2G.LISR internal graphics card not working

After building a new pc with msi k7n2g-lisr I can't play 3d games because after 10 seconds or less windows close the game and appears windows desktop.
I've installed an external video card and everithing works fine.
Does anybody know how can I use the internal video card?

Hi Wonkanoby,
Thx for the link! I am aware that also other people have had the same problem as I have not only with the Crucial but also with other RAM modules.
I did plan originally to get hold of 1 Gig's worth of Corsair as it looks most likely to work but it crossed my mind that I think it will not be a 100% stable system still :(
Following this I contactd Crucial directly because I wanted to send the RAM back to them so I could be credited. The employee had a word with the enginneer and he explained that Crucial could replace the module and give it another try as they were aware of a problem with the K7N2G-LISR board?? Looking on the paperwork that comes with the module it does say "Upgrade for a MSI (Micro Star) MS-6570 (K7N2G) system)". I only mentioned that I had a K7N2G motherboard and there are all the other details there so it seems that even Crucial know about the problems with this m/b. I took their word for it and would decide to give it a try in the hope I could finally sort this problem out but unfortunately it is the same problem :(
The only thing we can wait for now is a strong BIOS update (see my post in the BIOS section) which will fix these problems with the NforceII chipset. How long we will have to wait is another matter. I for one cannot wait to long because I bought my board from E-buyer and their policy of RMA is 28 days or even shorter I think (cant quite remember). I hope MSI can supply because the board is impressive if it did work.

K7N2G-LISR

Hi, i have a little dude. I have bought this main board and the msi software says me that the graphic card that is at the board (GFORCE4 mx440) is at AGP 4x is that right? if it isnt? what can i do to put it at 8x. At bios i have AGP 8x ENABLE. Please Help me
And another trouble. Sometimes my computer restart itself anytime, have anybody happen to him?
Thanks a lot

I run under winxp sp1
My computer hardware is:
K7n2g-lisr
AMD XP 2200+
Western Digital 80 HD
512 ddr 333

I think it could be the ram because i have read here that it should be better if you buy i good ram stick. I bought a cheap one, i dont know the trademark now. It reboots me when it wants...

When will a new BIOS for K7N2G-LISR be released

Anyone have any idea when a new BIOS for the K7N2G-LISR will be released or if a new beta bios is available :D

I have a BIOS bug for MSI.
I can't disable the tv-out function. Therefore I can't watch any DVD's. I have to take out my G3 to enable me to adjust the onboard GFX settings and there is no option to disable tv-out as described in the manual.
I have emailed MSI and their tech support are either extremely busy or completely useless like their software.
This is completely driving me up the fecking wall!!!
I love MSI hardware but I have to avoid any MSI software like the plague... unfortunately the BIOS is unavoidable.
MSI, please sort this or I will be forced to return my hardware and look for another brand. I'm considering ABIT so be warned.
Could we draw up a list of bugs to give to MSI so we can try and get them sorted?
Sorry for the ranting, but theres not much I can do. :(

Woohoo, MSI K7N2G-L up and running

Well after much trepidation/waiting/stuffing around I finally got a working cpu installed into my mobo.
And it all worked first go, with ABSOLUTELY no problems.
I'm now running the following;
MSI K7N2G-L
AthlonXP 1600+
(borrowed from a mate whilst I save for my 2400+ or better)
Using the onboard vid/sound/LAN (all working fine)
2 x 256 MB Hynix (Hyundai) DDR333 el cheapo RAM
80 GB Seagate 7200RPM
4KUS 52x52x24 CDRW
400 Watt Ritmo PSU
Temps so far on cpu are 55c idle 60c load. CPU and HSF need a big cleanup with some acetone, but that's for later this week.
As for DDR RAM compatibility, everything seems fine. I haven't tried pumping the system up to High Performance settings in BIOS or tweaking the RAM settings. However I don't think the cheapie RAM will like any changes from the default settings.
Anyway I'll try to get the specifics of the Hynix RAM and post it to the RAM sticky guide on this forum. Is there a way to show the specific details of your RAM in Windows?

Go update your BIOS now as it will drop those temps to where they should be or close...
You can use something like SiSoft Sandra to get the specific specs on your memory or go look it up on the mfg's website...
Glad it all worked first time...mine did too!

MSI-K7N2G vs Powercooler PCH-161

Hi, I have a MSI-K7N2G-L mainboard... and a problem with a brand-new Powercooler PCH-161 (http://www.powercooler.com.tw). Well, I did all connections as indicated by the vendor, but the mainboard shuts down automatically. You can see a good picture of my cooler here: http://www.powercooler.com.ar/pch161s.htm This is what I did:
I did not connect the cooler directly to the mainboard, of course. The cooler comes with a TSAC (sensoring system) bringing a splitter with four connectors (two in each end). In one end, there is a three-pin male connector which is to be plugged into the three-pin female connector of the cooler itself... in this end there is also a four-pin female connector, but it remains unused. In turn, in the other end of the TSAC there is a four-pin male connector, which is to be plugged into the power supply itself, and also a three-pin female connector containing only the sensor (a yellow cable). The latter must be plugged into the mainboard, obviously.
Despite I followed the instructions carefully to the letter, the mainboard continued to shut down. Well, I was said by the vendor that the only solution would be to set "Halt on No errors" in the bios, so that it won't stop on boot, but I think that this is a somewhat dangerous solution, isn't it? Besides, I bought a first-class mainboard and a first-class cooler so that I wouldn't experience this kind of problem
Ah! I already checked all BIOS updates (my version is Award 3.4), but I found nothing, and decided not to update... lest a new problem shows up
Any idea?
Thanks in advance

When powering up Gigabyte G35Gv2 laptop, by pressing F9 (function key 9), it goes into recovery mode. Then it tries to use the Windows recovery image stored in a hidden partition to bring up Windows recovery tool (from where the laptop can be rebooted, of course). So that's also adequate to give this trackpoint a good kick, I noticed. You may try if such an ugly/ineligant work-around is available in your laptop. But if you've formatted that hidden partition, then unfortunately it's quite painful.
I got this laptop only a few days ago. I got one problem already fixed by the Kernel folks (namely a WARNING alert by UEFI layer). I've one open bug report for Noveau as well, which surprisingly works well, although floods kernel log buffer. However, things are looking positive for this particular Elantech trackpad issue, in the sense, the kernel input layer folks have had patch submissions directly from Elantech Engineers in the recent past (www.emc.com.tw). So I'm hopeful that this problem might get their attention. If it does, then that would indeed speed up the bug fix process. Fingers crossed.

Need help with MSI K7N2G-ILSR

This is probably a really easy problem to fix, but my internet time is limited since my old system is in pieces, and I have to do this from work.
My new MSI K7N2G-ILSR, running with a Barton XP2800 and 2 DIMMs of Geil 512MB DDR PC3200 , doesn't seem to be happy with things. When I tried to turn things on, I got no video output, and there was a regular series of beeps.
I believed this is just a memory issue, and I intended to look into it when I get home...however, it seems things are a little more complicated than I may have thought.
After failing to get any results with the pc3200 512 dimms, I switched to my old 2700 256 meg DIMMS, which I knew worked fine. To my surprise, the system then worked...almost. It got to a certain point, and then gave the message "no drive is connected to fastrack", or something to that effect, and then froze.
The system also worked with combinations of my old 256meg and one of the new 512s, but not with both 512s at once. The 256s, in combination, powered up every time; however, they didn't allow me to install anything. The combination of 2 256s and 1 512 worked most of the time, but would occasionally fail to detect the the RAM - resulting in the same steady beeping as earlier.
For the sake of curiousity, I removed the IDE cable from the DVD drive. To my surprise, Windows (the drive was not formatted) tried to load...which would not happen when the DVD was connected. I then reconected the DVD, and removed the IDE connection from the hard drive. XP tried to install, and then crashed...in fact, the whole system powered down. And now will not restart again. It's dead, and I can't seem to get a single response from it.
This made me wonder if the problem lies with my PSU. Does this sound like something which would happen if the PSU was playing up? I have a 450 watt unit, which I thought would be ok. But the only thing I can think is that the PSU doesn't have enough power to deal with the demands of my new system. I imagine the 3200 DIMMs require a lot more power than the 2700, which might explain why the system can't power up using two of them - the PSU can't handle it.
Any ideas at all? I'm getting more than a little frustrated now. Any advice gratefully received...

Remove all devices from your setup except the CD-ROM (or DVD device) and the hard drive, and connect each to the end connector on different IDE cable, making sure each device is set to "cable select" (preferred) or "master" (2nd choice). Plug the CD-ROM (or DVD device) into IDE2; Plug the hard drive cable into IDE1. For now, don't plug anything into IDE3.
Your power supply is probably adequate, but beware. While many PS'es are "high wattage," many don't deliver enough power to the critical 3.3V bus. Check to make sure that your PS is rated for AT LEAST 28 Amps for the 3.3VDC supply. If not, get a new ANTEC TRUE PS that is. Don't skimp on power; it's like you skimping on food, then running a marathon.
Only install (1) 256MB module in one of the two slots that are together. I recommend the slot closest to the CPU.
If you are running a video card, remove it and use the IGP for now.
Now, power up, and when you get the logo screen, go into your BIOS by pressing the delete key. If your screen is blank and just sits there, then power off, unplug the computer, and set the "clear CMOS jumper." Wait 30 seconds, replace jumper, plug in power cord, and restart computer.
When you get to BIOS, make certain that it sees both drives in the first BIOS screen. Set your time and day (if you like) and then go to the second screen and set your CD-ROM/DVD as the first boot device, set the HD0 as the second (it should already be that way), hit and save and exit, but don't set anything else. Your computer should now boot from the CD-ROM and try to install Windows (I assume XP.) When it asks for you to press F6 to load RAID drivers, don't.
Choose to format your drive using NTFS, don't choose the quick format.
Report back!

MSI K7N2G graphics core?

Can anyone tell me which is the integrated graphics core of the MSI K7N2G motherboard??

Because the KT333 chipset works best with DDR333.
You posted questions on the K7N2 board?? All replies are towards that board not the one you have now.

that's the longest story ever...........lets just say that the DAMN kt3 ultra 2 is damaged.
Been there dont that I dont even have to ask

Back to the memory timings, i'm planning to get 2x 256 pc 2700, so, how can i set the timings?
Pick up ddr 3200 is same price if not cheaper right now than 2700 (for your K7N2 Board)
The timings are in the Advanced Chipset Features then you will see it Memory Timings default is [By SPD] its best to leave it there but if you want to tighten them just set it to manual and go down the list adjusting them to your liking.
Edit:
We posted at same time, I though that only happed with me and raven

MSI K7N2G-L nothing but problems!!!!

I've been trying to get my AMD 2700+ to run in my K7n2G-L for over a week now. When I boot the CPU registers as a 1500+. There are no multiplier settings on MSI's website for the 2700+ for this board so I just stepped back and used the 2600+ settings to be safe. Then my board wouldn't post so I set the jumper to 100mhz and she posted again. It will register as a 2700+ in Safe mode (100mhz). But when I try to load an OS I get a BSOD. I've RMAed my CPU and my memory now so its has to be this board. Someone please help me out if you have any ideas! Thanks!

AMD Athlon 2700+
MSI K7n2G-L nForce2 Chipset

I'd look at the PSU that you're using for the system first...do Wonka's formula for checking total power on the 3 main voltages then if that isn't the problem I'd RMA the board...just doesn't seem like a MB problem tho...

Major problem with MSI - K7N2G motherboard

i have just purchased an MSI - K7N2G motherboard, when i switch it on the test lights on the back do not light up and the computer does not even boot up the bios. then when i press the restart button the lights will light but hang on this problem - Initializing Hard drive controller, then when i restart again, lights 1,2 and 3 stay completely off and number 4 shows red and it just keeps switching from these two problems. i have also sent it back and they said there was no problem and have sent it back to me, but i still have the same problem can any one help me?? ;(

i have already got one of these pc's running with same spec except different harddrive, and because it was so cheap and easy to make i made another and since then had loads of probs!
here is my spec hope this will help!
