MSI k8n neo2 and cpu vcore...

Dear All,
I just check out with core cell my vcore and i find it @ 1.5v ... but a64 .09 should have 1.4v? I also tryied to set vcore in bios at 1.4v
but in windows i always find 1.5
I check it with ntune and core cell...
What happens?
tnx

Use cpu-z from www.cpuid.com to check the voltage .
The mobo bios may still autodetect winchester to 1.5v , if thats the case change
cpu_vid from startup to 1.4v .

  • MSI K8N Neo2 and Creative?

    Anyone know of a problem between MSI K8N Neo2 board and
    Creative soundblaster audigy 2 card?
    My problem started as soon as i plugged in my soundblaster audigy 2 card,
    as a result i started to get randomly "Machine Check Exception" problems.
    Often when i play games where the sounds are continually.
    I've tried creatives support, but i can't find any solution.
    The onboard sound works fine, but i prefer the audigy card, as long as it don't
    restart my computer.
    Anyone have any idea what it may be?

    I am using an Audigy 2 with latest drivers and no probs whatsoever so it may not be a motherboard/soundcard problem

  • MSI K8N Neo2 and USB 2.0

    Does this MB have USB 2.0? When I plug in my iPod it says that the device could run faster if I plugged it into a USB 2.0 port. How do I fix this? Thanks

    Gadgets,
    Before you update your BIOS please do following:
    1- Insure that you do not have older legacy USB peripherals (V 1.X) plugged in next to your Ipod 2.0 USB connection.  Pluging in a USB 1.x connector next to a USB 2.0 connector can drag all transfers to the lowest USB 1.x transfer rate.
    2- Do not guess at your USB transfwer rate. Download Sandra Lite 2005 (SR3) from Sisoftware here (it's free): http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=177
    once you done so install it and use the File System Benchmark program to find out exactly what your Ipod USB connection is achieving in MB/s. A USB 2.0 connection should give you a 32 or greater MB/s transfer rate.
    3- Don't MESS with your BIOS UNTIL YOU are absolutely sure of the procedures to follow.  Here is some reference links:

  • These ATI cards 9500 Pro and 9700 Pro ok for MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and winchester cpu? Compatible?

    Looking at grabbing a used ATI 9500 Pro or used 9700 Pro AGP card for my MSI Neo2 Plat since I can't use my Matrox G400.
    Any problems using either of the above cards? I don't play a huge amount of 3D games so I'm not going to grab a 9800 Pro or XT or 6600GT. A 9500 or 9700 Pro would allow me to play the newer games at reasonable resolutions. Just want to make sure they are compatible.
    thanx

    Ok guys, thanx for the feedback. I missed the 9500 Pro sale, so maybe its for the better. If I'm going to try a bit of 3D gaming, I may aswell get a little bit better card. So here is my question for you folks:
    For my MSI K8N Neo2 and AMD64 3000+ system, I want a card that will have good 2D output and good DVD playback. I want to try some 3D games, but don't want to have the minimum. I was looking at used 9500 Pro's and the 9600 XT but I've come across a used 9700 Pro and a 9800 Pro and 9800 Pro with r360 core (almost a 9800XT). So if I get a 9700 Pro, what will I be able to play smoothly at what settings and what will I be unable to play. Ultimately, I may play mostly on my projector at 858 x 484, so maybe the cards don't matter too much. If I don't play 3D games much after a while, I'll probably downgrade, but I want to give it a try. I can't afford a new 9800 Pro/XT or 6600GT.
    Used cards I'm deciding between. Have to act fast.
    9700 Pro $170 CAD or 9800Pro $210 CAD or 9800 with r360 core $230. Price differences between the cards is as you see there.
    thanx in advance for any feedback,

  • Strange vcore readings on msi k8n neo2 in mbm

    Sometimes when i start my computer i get readings of
    cpu temp:45 C(idle)(normal 38 C idle)
    and vcore:2,15-2,25 V
    I've tried both bios 1,37 mod and 1,8 mod both with their original versions
    Any ideas of what might be the problem?
    My specs are:
    msi k8n neo2
    athlon 64 3000+(venice)
    sapphire 9550
    2*512 kingston ram
    120 gb hdd etc.

    After a shutdown / and power on again i got the same bogus readout from MBM5 .
    Changed in voltage ini
    to
    V6V1=$20*0.00488 + 0.69
    sat it straight again .
    Old:
    V6=MSI MS-7025 K8N NEO2
    V6V1=$20*0.0160  //vcore  calibration
    V6V2=255

    V6V5=$21*0.0154*3.8
    V6V6=255

    To me it looks like it flips when i get over 1.60v during power on . (was 1.58v before and then it reported correct with *0.016)

  • MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum AND SATA2

    i have  MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum motherboard with 3500+ cpu and WD 160 hard sata disk.
    I 'd like to ask if my MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum motherboard support sata2 hard disk drives, in order to know which HD  to connect as a second HD drive, SATA or SATA 2 ??

    It'll see SATA2 as regular SATA. You won't loose any speed either. There are no hard drives that actually benefit from SATA2 spec speeds. Well, maybe in isolated near theoretical benchmark cases one current model might be faster in SATA2 mode. 
     We just haven't got the technology yet.

  • New CPU, Msi K8n neo2 platinum - no boot!

    Greetings!
    I got the following components:
    *MSI K8N NEO2 Platinum -54g MB
    *4 x 512mb Geil Value Ram
    *Gainward 7800GS+ Bliss 512mb AGP
    *Samsung Spinpoint 500gb SATA HD
    *Corsair 620HX (620W) PSU
    *CPU AMD Opteron 180 Dual Core (upgrade from AMD 3000+ Winchester)
    I recently upgraded my PC with a new HD, more ram, new CU Fan/heatsink - on an AMD 3000+ (Winchester). PC wouldn't boot - I did however manage to fix it. I think it was because of the ram, one of the bricks had some dust on it. Since then, my pc has worked 100%...
    Today, however, I got a new PSU and CPU in the mail! A Corsair 620W PSU and an AMD OPTERON 180 Dual. I carefully cleaned the surface on the heatsink etc, and applied an appropriate amount of "Arctic Alumina" on the CPU/heatsink (as followed per instructions from Arctic). When I have connected everything, and fire my pc up - it just won't boot.. (The monitor won't light up).
    Since then, I have carefully checked all wires, unplugged/replugged etc.
    But it just won't boot!
    I do have the latest bios (1.0D), so it should support my CPU.
    I should mention some "weird" things, though. When I try to boot up, everything seems normal (All fans are running), but there are no lights on my case! And I can't turn off the PC while holding down the "power" button on my case. I can't reset either.. as soon as I turn the PC on (by turning on the PSU power switch), the PC starts running. Normally I would have to push the button on my case. ALSO: I have cleared CMOS, still a black screen. And I have tried 2 different monitors, so I know it aint that either.
    My old PSU was a Chieftec 360W one (and my case is a Chieftec also). The old PSU was connected to "SFAN2" on my MB,.. my new PSU isn't connected to any "SFAN" at all.. I doubt that has anything to do with the problem though?
    Any suggestions on what I might do ?
    Edit: D-bracket shows this (Yellow, red, red, yellow):
    BIOS Sign On
    - This will start showing information about logo, processor brand name, etc... - It stops here. No boot screen

    Quote from: BOSSKILLER on 14-November-07, 21:14:42
    remove power cord from the PSU(else will not work) and Clear CMOS Guide.
    leave one memory stick only in a 1st DIMM slot near to CPU socket and try to boot.
    Done & done.
    Still no boot screen :(

  • Msi k8n neo2 platinium and plextor 716SA - Serial-ATA

    Is anyone using a the msi k8n neo2 platinum with a plextor 716sa dual layer dvd burner? if so how do you like the dvd burner? and Do you have any problems with it working with your computer? and can you boot from that dvd burner if you need to reinstall windows xp?

    Hi mate
    I am trying to use this same drive on my K8N Diamond mobo. It's having none of it.

  • Reboot problem with MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and 250 GB SATA HDD

    I'm having a "reboot" problem with my MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum. After turning my system on it will run without any problems, until I reboot. After a reboot it will always hang after the initial windows-bootscreen. The HDD-light will remain on. If, instead of going into Windows XP SP2, I try to enter the BIOS after a reboot (DEL) the system will also hang (blank screen with blinking cursor).
    It started doing this after I installed the Maxtor 250 GB SATA disk. Before, I didn't have problems rebooting. If I disconnect the Maxtor drive I can reboot and enter BIOS and Windows each and every time. Reconnecting the Maxtor 250 GB SATA drive will return the reboot problem. I always have to use the power swith to get a working system again. It's not enough to do a hard reset (this has the same effect as rebooting).
    Here are the details of my system:
    MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum (BIOS 1.B)
    Athlon 64 3200+ (Winchester, 2 Ghz, 512 KB cache, stepping DH-D0)
    2 x Kingston KVR400X64C25/512, 512 MB, DDR, PC3200 (2,5-3-3-8 T1)
    Asus Radeon AX800 Pro (256 MB)
    PSU Antec Sonata 380W
    HDD Maxtor 80Gb ATA (6Y080P0, Pri Master)
    HDD Seagate 250Gb SATA (ST3200822AS)
    HDD Maxtor 250Gb SATA (6V250F0 - jumpered in SATA150 mode, the mobo wouldn't work with the drive in SATA300-mode)
    Aopen COM5232/AAH Pro CD-Writer ATA (Sec Master)
    BenQ DW1640 DVD-Writer ATA (Sec Slave)
    P.S. The NVidia IDE-drivers are NOT installed. System is not overclocked.

    Thank you for all the replies. Upgrading to the latest Nvidia IDE-drivers did not fix my problem. Moving to other SATA-ports did not help either. Upgrading the mobo's BIOS is not really an option (I'm using one version before the most recent and there isn't anything in the fixlist of the latest BIOS).
    Now I've contacted Maxtor for (hopefully) a new firmware.

  • MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and Venice E6

    Hi!
    I have just bought an MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum motherboard and an AMD Athlon64 3000+ processor with Venice E6 core (ADA3000DAA4BW).
    Will this mobo boot with that processor? Or do i have to use a Winchester to flash the BIOS first? Personal experiences would be helpful!
    Andres.

    Your new board probably came with the 1.9 bios. The new 7025v1B.zip bios (1B only a couple days old) I think is for some of the new X2 AMD Processors. The MSI link to Products/Mainboards/Neo2/Processor Compatibility is now setup to use the 7025v1B.zip bios. As I recall the previous Processor Compatibility Chart for 1.9 bios was OK for all the Venice cores (E6 or not). I think it is only some of the latest E6 bigger models are affected by the latest 1B bios. Maybe someone has the older 1.9 bios Processor Compatibility Chart.   
    You shouldn't need to use a Winchester, some X2 processors would be recognized as earlier X1 models until the newer bios was installed. I think you should be OK with the 1.9 bios. I have the San Diego 4000+ and my board, one month old, came with the 1.9 bios installed.

  • Msi k8n neo2 platinum and corsair cmx512-3200LL

    is anyone using the corsair cmx512-3200LL with the msi k8n neo2 platinum or any other motherboards? if so how well does that memory overclock for you?

    LL used winbond CH-5 or BH-5 or Infineon B-5 depending on revision .
    And everybody knows that it's hard to overclock winbond very far without excessive vdimm increase (2.9v - 3.4v).
    Corsair XL use samsung TCCD and overclocks much easier when having a motherboard with a vdimm limit at 2.85v.
    xms 4xxx also use samsung (TCCC or TCCD) and some versions use hynix D43/D5
    so you can't directly compare xms3200LL with the others .
    You can query RamGuy about the chips used on the spesific modules here :

  • MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and seagate sata2 500Gb

    Hi all,
    As per subject, when the drive is connected to my computer it does not get passed the boot screen as all it keeps on doing is rebooting its self,
    i have checked all my bios settings and all is as it should be, also i would like to mention that i already have 3 other sata drives connected to this motherboard, of which 2 are, 160Gb Seagate hard drives, and 1, 30Gb Weston digital hard drive, and they work perfectly,
    I have also tried unplugging all the drives and just trying the new one, and setting the jumper to limit to 1.5Gb/s but still all it does is reboot, do you think the drive is faulty?
    Thank you

    Seems strange.  I have a Seagate sata2 500GB (ST3500630AS) hooked up to Sata port #1 on my K8N Neo2 and it works perfectly.  I have found it to be *very* intolerant of overclocks though.
    What sata port are you connecting to?  And are you overclocking?
    This could be the problem .....  SATA ports 1 & 2 on the nforce3 boards are NOT locked. I only use 3 & 4 plus set your AGP clock to 67 or 68 to be safe (this is supposed to lock the PCI bus but only seems to work on SATA 3&4). Of course, this won't be a problem if you are running at Safe Default settings.
