  • MSI K7T turbo2 MS-6330 bios ver 3.6..NEED SERIOUS HELP!!

    Anybody plz help me.I own a mobo above running amd athlon xp 2000+. My system run well for one week. After dat, my system started to give me problem. It hangs one day and when i reboot my com, the message "Windows protection error. Please restart your computer" appears. I tried already many times to restarted my com..but still fails. So i think maybe RAM problem..so i try to remove and reinstall the RAM. Then my com succeed to boot into windows. Everything run ok..no problem for few days. Then suddenly my com hang again and I juz reboot my com. Then the same message appears again..May i know wat happened to my com.PLEASE HELP ME...:'(
    My spec:
    msi K7T turbo2 MS-6330 bios ver 3.6
    AMD athlon xp 2000+
    Asus v7100 Geforce 2 MX400
    2x256 kingston ram(pc133)
    2x20g maxtor hdd
    1xTV tuner card
    1XSb live soundcard

    Try uninstalling the sound card and any other nonessential components. Also, when you uninstall click on the "show hidden" items and remove duplicates. Don't remove anything that you do not know exactly what it is including any marked "unknown" but if you see multiple sound cards or cd-roms, etc. remove them. Then see if you boot ok and gradually reinstall items.

  • AthlonXP (2200+) + MSI K7T Turbo2 trouble

    Hi!, i have a huge problem that i can't solve!.  X(
    I have a MSI motherboard (MSI K7T Turbo2), and have bought myself a new CPU. After looking at the newest  BIOS details on the MSI website i desided to buy an AthlonXP 2200+ (1.8GHZ - becomed supported with the latest BIOS update) but now i can't get it to work propebly.
    I downloaded the latest BIOS and flashed it with the accurate flashtool that was included in the .exe file i d/l. and now to my problem:
    My AthlonXP 2200+ works with the standard clockfrequenzy settings in the BIOS configuration but that configuration tells the computer that i only have a AthlonXP 1500+ (1.3GHZ) not 2200+, so then i went to  the MSI website again and looked at the "CPU support" table you had. there is says:
    To get an AthlonXP 2200+ on a K7t Turbo2 motherboard to work, use these settings:
    set the FSB("clock by slightly adjust")=133 and the Ratio(CPU clock ratio)=13.5 and it will work, here's my problem, i can't set the FSB to "133" in my bios, the MAX setting is "132" and i can't choose "13.5" as ratio, only "13", so i tryed using FSB=132 and Ratio=13, but then after my computer rebooted i was forced to "clear the cmos" to get the computer to start again.
    so i must run the CPU as a 1500+ (1.35GHZ) using the standard settings in the frequenzy settings, and that realy sucks :(, the CPU cost me plenty of money and im a poor student with bad ecomomy and your BIOS details said that the CPU was supported ://// please help me!
    This is what my computer outputs directly when booting up: (when the BIOS checks harddrives/cdroms/memory...)
    * Award modular BIOS v6.00 PG
    * W6330VMS V.3.5
    pleease help me!!!!!  X(  X(  X(

    I think you have to remove the jumper "J17" for FSB 133+. Consult you'r manual on where this jumper is located.

  • [URGENT] MSI K7T Turbo2 patched 3.6 Problem

    SORRY TO POST IT AGAIN ON THIS FORUM.. ITS QUITE URGENT
    Hi! I've been using MSI K7T Turbo2 with my Athlon 1700 XP.
    So far no problem with the configuration.. And I did update the BIOS to v3.6
    However, when I sold the mobo to someone, who's using a Duron 700 processor, he told me that he couldn't get the system to boot. Not even see the startup BIOS screen.
    After that, he tried to clear the CMOS data by jumper and tried restarted, this time everything is fine. But later he found that, with this method, he CAN ONLY BOOT ONCE. Meaning if he saved anything in BIOS, it wont be saved actually. And also after he cleared the CMOS data and reinstalled Windows, when Windows restart the PC, the same old problem occurred (cannot start PC)
    As Duron is running at FSB 100MHz, he did set the jumper J17 closed (100MHz). But same problem happens. Then we suspect that it has something to do with the BIOS patch that I applied (v3.6). Could it be, after applying the bios patch (when I was using Athlon 1700 XP), the bios remembers that the processor is Athlon 1700 XP and does something (eg, removed the 100MHz feature?) that caused the motherboard now DOESN'T boot with Duron 700?
    Any suggestion?
    If so, where can we find the original bios for flashing back to previous version?
    TQ!

    what kind of system specs does the pc now have that he has it?  Is the heatsink mounted properly and is the fan plugged in?  I doubt the PSU should have any problem with that cpu.  How about the ram?  try swapping it out and replacing it.
    I would try removing everything that isn't essential to boot into Windows. Have only the cpu, ONE stick of ram, hard drive, cdrom drive, and graphics card.  Remove modems, NICs, Raid cards, extra ram sticks, extra IDE devices, disable the onboard sound (remember that there are two values to do this with in the BIOS and both must be disabled).  Try booting then.  Then check if you can boot normally.  If so, one of the pieces of hardware you removed is the problem.  If not, something is wrong physically or in the configuration of the remaining hardware.  Give that a go.  If things go okay, plug in one piece of hardware at a time and retry.  You'll hit a snag sooner or later.
    BTW, I don't think the board still thinks an athlon xp 1700+ is still in it.  In the Frequency and voltage controls, you might try setting the FSB, multiplier, and Vcore manually.

  • MSI K7T Turbo2 WEIRD problem!

    Hi, I know this board is a bit old, but still ...
    I have a strange problem.
    When I power on my PC I can see the BIOS version and the processor type. The the boot screen stops. The machine then reboots and I get the same screen back on (seeing only the processor type).
    I tried reseting the bios, changing RAM banks. Same problem. I have 2 sticks od SDR RAM.
    The funny thing is, if I wait like 10 minutes the booting of windows begins. I then have to wait another 10 minutes and Windows XP are booted. Then everything works OK (HDD ok, dvdrw OK, sound ok, USB works, LPT1 works etc..).
    If I reboot the PC again, I have to wait another 20 minutes and - WIndows XP is booted.
    Whan could be wrong?
    Thanks.
    Sebastijan

    Hello!
    Please tell us PSU specs too, found on a sticker inside case, on the noisy box.
    It's not that old, I think, but have you ever updated BIOS.
    - Hey! Be careful you get the right BIOS!! I think this is for your board, but please check and double check, and read description for each update version.
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=24&kind=1
    Other than PSU and BIOS, it could also be IDE config is not as good as could be. If possible, have the hard disk(s) on different channel than CD, DVD etc. Master disks whether HDD or CDRW, should be at the end of the cable. What is the brand of your HDD?

  • MSI K7T Turbo2 & T-bred?

    xroyal,
    I could have it backwards. I wish that I had none that a "B" version was coming and I would have waited as well. At this point I am looking at it as doing my part to keep a good company going. I suspect that the differences will be minimal at least for me. I don't overclock so as long as it runs well I am happy. Beside it is much faster than my old Duron 800:-).

  • MSI K7T Turbo2 Boot Problems

    I recently setup a computer with this board.  It is a AMD Athlon XP 1700, 256mb pc133, 40GB HD, Geforce4 MX440, Sound Blaster Live, and a 300watt power supply.  
    I set everything up and turned it on and the led's in the back were all red and the machine was making a clicking sound.  I disesembled it checked everything resasembled it and the same thing happened.  Is the board bad or the processor?  Any suggestions?  I need to know if I need a RA on the processor or the motherboard.  

    thing is all they care is that psu will run their xp
    they do not also chuck in high end high power drawing video cards
    nvidia will tell you a 250 watt psu is good enough for a gf4 but not what cpu was in system as well
    but then they probabley use a 300 celeron whilst proving it not an xp 2400 and bare bones on the rest

  • K7T Turbo2 No Bootup

    i just bought the MSI K7T Turbo2 MS-6330 v5. i'm using the AMD 2000+. i was using a 350w power supply. didnt boot up. i thought it was the extra 4 pin power supply thing (that p4's have) which was the problem. i went out and bought a 400w power supply with the extra 4 pins. still didnt work. i then wondered if it was my cpu, so i tried a working AMD Tbird 1.33ghz from a different machine. still no luck. The D-Bracket gives me 4 red leds on both occassions. i know its not my cpu. i know its not my power supply. i also changed the video card from a gf2 gts to an ati 8500. no luck there. i can never get to POST. nothing ever comes on screen. a friend with same board had similar problems not getting into POST and fixed it by setting FSB from 133 to 100. he was using a Duron 950 though. i tried this method, still no luck. i've tried just about everything i know, and cant get it to work. any other tips? should i contact msi and send this board back?

    --------------------------

    already did so Bas. i've built a few computers in my time, have run into many problems, but never anything like this. when i first ran into the problem, i read on the troubleshooting first, when that didnt work, i tried switching the various cpus/psu/gpu/memory. still didnt work. then i started from the beginning, broke out the mobo manual, and did it step by step. still no luck. i'm kinda pissed cuz i bought a new psu ($67, although i wouldve needed it eventually), sort-of new gpu ($40 ati radeon 8500), new cpu ($104 AMD 2000+ because i thought my previous AMD 2000+ was fried), memory ($56 PC133 PNY 512MB). i've tested the mobo with 2 cpu's (the tbird 1.33ghz and amd 2000+, am waiting for my new amd 2000+ to come in), 3 gpu's (radeon 8500, gf2 gts, tnt2 ultra, all agp), different arrangement of memory (512mb pny + 512mb kingston value ram dimm slot 0+1 and vice versa, 512mb pny alone dimm slot 0, 512mb kingston alone dimm slot 0), and with various psu's (350w antec, 250w generic, 400w powmax w/the extra 4pin adapter that mobo optionally requires). still no luck. after all this, i'm thinking i may have ordered a bad mobo, i dunno though. please help  :D

  • K7T Turbo2 PCI Problem

    Motherboard: MSI K7T Turbo2 MS-6330 Ver5.0
    Bios: 3.6
    Chipset Driver: 4.43
    Processor: AMD 1800+ XP
    RAM: 256MB SDRAM PC133

    CDROM: Generic 50x
    CDRW: Lite-On 40x12x48 LTR40125S
    With Windows XP Home or Windows XP Pro, I cannot install any PCI devices. I have tried a modem, NIC and a Soundblaster live.  It sees the device, and knows what it is, but fails to install.  I have tried different PCI slots. I have tried just about every BIOS setting (and yes I disabled the integrated modem, either though there is no integrated modem) but can't figure it out.
    With Windows 98SE, no problem installing PCI devices. I did use a different hard drive to test WIN98, but I don't think that would matter.
    Does anyone have any ideas?  I can't seem to get through to tech support (no surprise there).
    Thanks,

    Thank you for the advice, but that's not it. I did what you said.. pointed to either the CD or floppy. Even with the soundblaster, XP new it was a soundblaster and tried to install it's driver, but no luck.
    I'm going to try different versions of the VIA chipset drivers today and see what happens.

    i've tried replugged all the components... but no hope.
    i've tried testing the video card, memory, other pci cards to my spare pc that i'm using now. they worked properly.
    I've tried reseating the processor and pull the BIOS battery out to clean current BIOS configuration but still no hope...

  • K7T Turbo2 (6330v5) problem (with locked Tbreds)

    Hi,
    I've recently bought a K7T Turbo2 board (6330v5) OEM version (green PCB) made probably for Fujitsu-Siemens UK. They probably didn't need those board anymore and sold them (a lot of wholesalers have them in my country now).
    Anyway I think the board I bought is damaged, but I not sure.
    The problem is that it won't POST with locked T-breds. I've tried a 2000+ (3rd week of 2004) and a 2400+ locked T-bred (46th week of 2003) and the PC haven't started.
    But with a T-Bird 1400Mhz, a 1700+ and 1800+ Palomino (probably locked) and 2400+ unlocked T-bred the board started without any problems.
    Is this the problem with new XP processors (produced after the 39th week 2003 and internally locked) and this board or I have a damaged board?
    TIA,
    Max

    Well, I didn't know it was the OEM version when I was buying it...  But in this case I don't think the bios is the problem. The board looks virtually the same as the normal board.
    And it boots with a pre-39 (24th week of 2003) T-bred 2400+, so it's not a lack of compatibility with T-bred issue.
    For me it seems that this board has problem with T-bred made after the 39th week of 2003 (internally locked ones).  
    So I need to know if all of those boards have the same problem, or only this one?
    BTW. Currently I'm running my unlocked T-bred 2400+ on a Abit KT7A board, and I've tried the same locked T-bred 2400+ that failed on MSI K7T Turbo2 on my abit board and it also didn't boot. So maybe there's something wrong the KT133A chip which makes KT133A boards incompatible with new locked T-breds?
    Of course the locked T-bred runs fine on a KT400 board or a nforce2 ultra400 boards...

  • K7T Turbo2, doesn´t show splash screen

    I´ve a problem with my K7T Turbo2, when the computer starts up, it doesn´t show me the MSI logo and it´s Enabled in the BIOS, if i disable it, the same... nothing happens. It´s strange a friend of mine has the same problem with the same Motherboard.
    Please, need any help.
    Thanks

    I agree.
    I think that if the board says it supports the fullscreen logo then it should when purchased.
    Mine doesn't show the fullscreen logo either- I think that while it may sound trivial it is worth looking into because if a small feature like that doesn't work then I can suspect that the board is in fact at fault with my high idle temps of 55 degrees Celcius, (60 degrees loaded)
    The heatsink/fan allowed 42 Degrees idle and 48 degrees loaded on my  MSI 6378 PCB 1.0. Swapping the chip again gave consistent results. The paste is generic but it was the same on the 6378 anyway so that is not the problem. The system is stable for now but I worry about the long term effect.
    And if the boot logo has a bug then maybe they really didnt implement the power savings correct either - viewing it as trivial since those temps are still within AMD's spec.
    I know this is just a value setup but afterall Im still a student - Elec. Eng. and craftiness at this level disgusts  so dont say why do I want my logo - Market segmentation is about less features for lowend not less quality (especially in something like a computer - data is involved). I had endless woes with my 6378 (crashing disk, screeching sound ) - imagine risking the PCB 3.0 Bios actually fixed a screeching sound issue. Go figure - MSI said that bios was not for PCB ver 1.0 and logic told me to go ahead anyway higher version usually means better code. (Of course I rationalised that mostlikely the new PCB mods were slight if only to take on the XP CPU's)
    Long and short - The logo thing should be investigated especially if consistently wrong on others systems. Success in little things do add to consumer impression of a company. Dont brush this off.

  • K7t turbo2 + front side bus

    i recently bought an msi k7t turbo2 and athlon xp 1700+, but when i boot up it only shows it as an athlon 1100mhz, i've asked a few friends and they told me to set the fsb to 133. i checked in the manual how, and it says to change the jumper however the diagrams weren't too informative (or i just didn't catch the drift), i was hoping somebody could explain in a little more detail

    I have the same problem...
    I have a k7t turbo xp1800 gf4ti4200 300Wps(one HD and nothing else to steal power) the cpu temp is >50C and the cooler is put on correctly.
    And when putting the fsb to 133 i can boot up once then it will hang after ~15 mins. And if i reboot before that nothing happens the screen is just black.
    Then i have to take the power cord out and leave it out for 5 mins then i can boot again but it hangs after ~15 mins.
    But when running at 100fsb everything is working perfectly but the cpu is running slower of course.
    I dont undestand why this is happening and its driving me nuts

  • K7T Turbo2, changing CPU

    I have a MSI K7T Turbo2 motherboard.
    I'm changing my CPU from a Athlon (thunderbird) 1200 to a Athlon XP 2400+ Thoroughbed.
    I've update my BIOS driver to version 6.30.
    From what I've read in the CPU support page,  the ratio is automatic.
    Dos that means that I just have to change the CPU and the moterboard will know the speed and the FSB? Or do I have to change something on the moterboard or in the BIOS?
    Thank You
    jcb

    the moterboard will know the speed and the FSB?
    Not the fsb, you have to select fsb133 manually (please read the manual about this). The multiplier is recognized automatically.
    Btw: Bios version 6.30?

  • K7T Turbo2 Sound Driver Problem

    I just installed a K7T Turbo2 motherboard for my #2 system and am having a problem installing the VIA sound driver.  The system freezes up before it finishes the installation and once I reboot the Device Manager says that since Windows stopped responding when trying to start the device, it wouldn't attempt to start it again.
    I've tried new drivers (both sound and chipset), tried reinstalling the drivers a few times, made sure the sound card was active in the BIOS, and even removed a couple of extra spacers from under the mobo so I just have them on the four corners.  Any other suggestions?

    I think during the course of trying to get it to work, it requested the gm16.dls file.  However, I think I finally got it installed from the Windows disk.  Could this still be causing the problem?
    Also, I tried out my SB Live! card from my primary system - the drivers installed and the card worked fine.  I would prefer not to have to buy a seperate sound card, if I can get the on-board one working.
