MSI K9N SLI V2 MS-7390 onboard sound problem

Hi,
My PC has stopped outputing sound. It was working fine yesterday morning, but when I got home from work 8 hours later it no longer seemed to want to play any sound. I know my taste in music is a bit naff but it not playing anything is a bit extreme!
I've checked the volume, reinstalled the sound drivers, checked the speakers and the cable by hooking them up to an iPod and I'm still not getting any sound. The onboard sound is enabled on the BIOS. Device Manager is showing no conflicts or problems, as far as it's concerend it's working. I've had a look at the motherboard and there's nothing I can see looks like it's shorted. I've even emptied my HDD and done a clean install of Windows XP again.
I'm really at a loss to see why this has happened and what to do to fix it. I guess buying a sound card would be one way of getting round it but I'm still puzzled about why it's doing this in the first place.
My motherboard is an MSI K9N SLI V2 MS-7390 and the on board audio is Realtek.

No, your bad choice of music shouldn't be the problem. That is if not a neighbour broke in to your house to stop the darn noise. Do you know if someone has changed anything?
Does the rest of the system work fine? I'm thinking there was a problem with return from hibernation or something.
What source do you have? CD for example.

  • Need help with bios for k9n sli v2(ms-7390)

    I recently got a phenom 2 720 black edition CPU, and I flashed my bios with the beta bios for my board(7390v123).
    Everything runs fine, except for now I can't change the CPU multiplier or CPU voltage(there locked on auto). Yes I do know about +/- and pgup/pgdn, the problem is it won't allow me to even select these options, it skips right over them to the next option. My motherboard is K9N SLI V2(Ms-7390). If anyone could help me out I'd be grateful thanks.

  • MSI K9N SLI: acpi, shutdown, ethernet "not enough resources"

    I recently got the MSI K9N SLI, new ram, gpu to upgrade my computer. I did a fresh install of windows xp pro but the computer kept going into some hibernating/power saving mode suddenly during install of windows. (The power led blinks slowly) After this I can not restart until I switch the I/O button at the back of the psu to off.
    -I remembered seeing some options in the bios so I switched off the ability of pci/pcie devices to recover from hibernation/sleep mode.
    -The install of windows then got a little further, until it says installing/configuring network devices. A new shutdown (this time a complete shutdown, where I can simply start the pc again at the front). This happens every time.
    -I now turned off acpi (advanced power saving... etc) in bios, and the installation of windows went fine. However...
    -Now the integrated ethernet lan devices says they cant find enough resources for it to work. So I cannot access the internet. Otherwise the system performs and runs smoothly. Have played games/music..etc.
    -Then to solve the ethernet problem I looked here in these forums where I found this post:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=98742.0
    This seemed to be a solution...however, it sets the acpi function to enabled, which causes the shutdown/hibernation/sleep mode during install.
    When I disable this bios function, everything except the lan problem, works fine. However this seems to make windows install the wrong HAL or device driver for the ethernet/communication part of windows.
    It also seem that others are having trouble with their integrated lan. One person's solutin was to install a separate ethernet card, which I am going to try. But I would like to have the benefit of having acpi enabled as it seem to be an important function safetywise.
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=99445.msg722820#quickreply
    I can recreate the shutdown during windows install every time by enabling the acpi function in bios. Although turning it on after installing windows doesnt seem to do anything, as windows seem to already have installed the wrong driver components. It also doesnt solve the ethernet problem as this requires at least a repair-install of windows.
    I apologize for the long post but more information is generally better, right?!   
    Any ideas of how to solve this?
    Thank you to everyone who replies anything helpful!

    Just installed the new harddrive and this time I only disabled the ethernet lan during windows install. Then installing the amd cpu software and the realtek audio drivers.
    However I am experiencing some minor unstabilities, one restart while surfing so far. Been reading about similar problems with other k9n sli users and if more restarts happen I am returning this mb and getting an Asus. Had Asus for the three last upgrades and never had any problems. Could be a fluke of course. Heard good things about Msi though.
    What PSU are you using including the +12V@ value A? Gd luck.

    So I recently jumped ship from XP Home to Vista x64 to XP pro x64 and I am having issues updating my drivers I downloaded the MCP55_64_9.17_MW31006 at this site http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1415
    NVIDIA nForce 550/570/570/590 SLI System Drivers
    When I run the install though nothing happens Nvidia splash then nothing and the files are not recognized by the device manager.
    Any idea what the issue could be? sadly need the ethernet update so I can connect to the internet lol also the 2 discs have no effect neither work vista or the xp (tried vista since the x64 drives actually worked on it)

    Vista x64 ultimate. I wanted to try X64 XP but I ran into problems thus the original post ^-^
    Vista is nice I could live with it for Dx10 but man UAC sucks every attempt to disable = vista freak out and repair the file ^-^
    ATM I use XP Home with the DX10 crack (I own vista so I don't see a issue) but yet to install any games on it. I will load up and check it out   Still the fact I get medium with x8 aa is good imo. Game looks fantastic and with luck the FC2 engine won't be such a resource whore like crysis. I recall the Sandune (think thats the name) for FC1 even on low settings things still looked fantastic.

  • MSI K9N SLI-2F+4GB DDR2 big problem....

    Recently i got another 2x1 GB DDR2 Vitesta Extrema 800+.My OS was Windows XP SP2.Of course i knew about de 32bit SO limitation and didn't expect my Windows to take advantage of all 4Gigs.My PC started to freeze on random ocassions.so i decided to install Windows Vista x64.It didn't start to install it just freezes after unpacking (gray bar with black background screen).I take out 2 Gigs.Works like a charm,so it isn't a dvd read problem. I inserted the 2GIGS back PC doesn't even get to boot screen(with 2GB works).I installed SP1 too,to get all hotfixes up to date.same thing.Memory hole is enabled in bios.Tested the sticks 1 by 1 no problem with eighter of them.Just as i write i am running the recently bought sticks,for 2 days,no problem.My bios is 3.8 now,but i downgraded from 3.9 thinking it may solve the problem.I also don't think that the PSU is the problem,because before i had 4x512 DDR2 800 GEIL Ultra (2.1V) wich practicly need same power to run.Hope somebody can help me :(

    You have tested with all sorts of el-cheapo PSU's.
    Do you really believe any of those will run a power eating videocard like a 8800GTS?
    I believe it's the videocard and/or the powersupply.
    As you managed to install XP without a problem it seems, well then the memory and CPU are fine, as they use a whole lot of memory and CPU power during install.
    It would have stalled during installation as well if it was the board/CPU/memory.
    However, during that stage the videocard isn't initialized to full potential, but just acting like a 100 year old VGA card and thus not using any power or GPU calculations at all.
    Please test your system on a >30A @ 12V powersupply SINGLE rail, to exclude the PSU.
    Also, take your friends videocard and put it in your system, but with a heavy 12V amp psu.
    Wouldn't be the first time it was both.
    Bad memory/CPU/board usually results into BSOD, but underpowered PSU can also cause freezing and those nVidia videocards do react on unstable power by reducing stuff....so yes it can run underpowered...but how long and how good?
    BAS, thanks but no thanks.Already solved,and it wasn't the PSU, you PSU FANATIK ).I already said i finished Crysis with this stinky PSU ,no problems.Go buy a PSU that costs twice your PC if that makes you happy,untill proven otherwise i stick to my cheap'o PSU

  • MSI K9N SLI SATA problem

    i have just board the MSI K9N SLI and a AMD X2 6000+ processor.
    i have a ATA harddisk with my system on and a SATA harddisk, BUT i can't see my SATA.
    i can see it i the Bios and at the "remove safely icon" BUT nowhere else!!
    enyone now WHY, i have a lot of programes on that HD that i need.
    Hope you can help, fast.

    read Moan Guide
    ensure that RAID is disabled for SATA channels from BIOS.
    from Windows, type in "run": diskmgmt.msc and check the drive status.

  • Trouble with MSI K9N SLI V2

    Okay, so I've been building a computer from scratch for a while now. I've been using :
    MSI K9N SLI V2 mainboard.
    AMD Athlon 64x2 Processor
    2x Kingston 1gb RAM DDR2
    nVidia e-GeForce 6200
    ATX Mid-Tower Case
    450 Watt ATX PSU
    I'm using my old computer's HD and CD Drive for the HD and CD Drives.
    Here's my problem :
    I connect everything together, and use the nVidia e-GeForce 6200 graphics card (there is no monitor plug built in.) plug in the monitor and can't get anything on the screen. The HD and CD Drives are running, Mainboard is running, all fans are running. Just no Visuals. I've plugged everything back to my old computer and it works fine. I can't figure out what's wrong. Can anyone help me out please? 

    Well you've ben asked what cpu you're using. Athlon 64 X2 is not a sufficient answer as there are dozens of models with varying cores. Without proper info we can't help you so please specify the exact model (e.g. Athlon 64 X2 4800+, Brisbane G2). This info is crucial to tell if the cpu used is supported or might require a bios update. That brings us to the next question: Do you know the bios version flashed on the board? Did it ever run?
    In addition your psu seems quite old, what model is it? As your list of psu specs is a bit confusing did I get right that psu is at 24A on +12v?
    Also try runnig board out of case as Bosskiller suggested with just one mem stick and only necessary components plugged in (no drive connected). 

  • MSI RS480M2-IL onboard sound problem

    Hello,
    i bought a computer with the MSI RS480M2-IL motherboard and i'm having some problems with the onboard sound - i hear small interferences. Updated drivers and noise still continued. Took it to the store and they said they didn't detect anything wrong with the onboard soundcard or motherboard configuration. I ruled out electrical interferences because when i'm not listening to anything or playing, even with the sound at maximum, you don't hear the crackles. Also tried it with different sound system and they were still there. I have a friend that told me that the onboard sound is never clear. I have uploaded some files where you can hear the interferences. Do you think this is normal for an onboard card and if i want better, i should buy a soundcard or do you think they better exchange the motherboard? I read in some forums that the onboard sound of this motherboard crackles - i think the sound heard below can qualify as that and that i should buy a better soundcard to play my games, right? Thanks for your attention!

    Edit: These are the drivers and versions of the audio (driver version wasn't updated yet in this pic)

    Yes.....I saw that too.  In my opinion, it an error in the description.  The Realtek site has all the info on that a3.75 set.  On your prior post you asked about install procedure.  You're correct.  Uninstall the old set using Add/Remove programs in Control Panel and run Setup on the new package to install.
    FYI.....I'm on broadband connection and can EMail large files.  If that new set fails, I could zip and Email you that old A3.67 set.  However, it's over 14MB in size (I checked), so you need an EMail account that can accept that large an attachment.  Let me know by Private Message in the Forum with EMail address.  I'll be in and out the rest of the day, so I may not get a chance to send until later.
    I'm also wondering if MSI has a server with legacy drivers that the moderators could check and provide link.  Download would be much easier solution on everyone with this problem.
    Let's see if the newest drivers work first.

    Edit:  Read this thread and it should make you feel better.

    As you can see, I also encountered (along with others) the problem with the A3.72 set that's on your CD.  At least it's fixable.  Hang in there.

  • Nforce 4 platinum SLI onboard sound problems

    I have recently bought the nforce 4 Platinum SLI motherboard with onboard sound blaster live 24bit, but when i try to fully utilise it in games like Halo, the sound laggs, only partially plays the sound effects. The sound is fine in all other things like when playing music, it is just when i turn on the hardware acceleration in the game audio options. I've checked for conflicts in device manager and re-installed the latest drivers. I read about the PSU problem with the -5V rail, but my PSU is 24 pin and has the correct rail, so it isn't that.
    It's almost like the sound card is not getting enough system resources to be able to fully process the sounds.
    It's driving me nuts, can anyone help with any suggestions.
    Cheers, Jonny

    I tried lowering the acceleration as well but it didn't affect it. When i took it down to basic acceleration, i was then unable to turn on the hardware accelaration inside the game which is what causes the sound to lagg.

  • Orange slot in MSI K9N SLI Platinum

    Quick and Dirty:
    What cards can I use in the Orange slot for in the K9N SLI Platinum?
    Details:
    I currently have the K8N Neo4 Platinum and am upgrading from 939 to socket AM2. I want the K9N SLI Platinum board but NEED 3 PCI slots. The three cards I need are Promise Ultra ATA/133 card, Soundblaster X-Fi sound card, Belkin wireless G LAN card. The K9N has three slots but that INCLUDES the orange slot but I don't know what its for.
    I tried the wireless card in the orange slot but i can't get the drivers to install and "accept" the card. Works fine when I switch back to white slot. I'm afraid without 3 slots I cannot purchase the board. Any solutions?

    Tried:
    Raid card installed without a hitch, first time installing that in this system.
    Also tried:
    Moved X-Fi from two slots down into the orange slot, was working immediately after bootup. I'm psyched beyond belief. 
    Will be buying the K9N Platinum. Thanks for the info.

  • MSI K9N SLI Platinum - SATA not hot-swappable?

    can i get a confirmation that K9N SLI Platinum motherboard does NOT support hot-swapping the SATA drives. I switched to this board for the AM2 socket and now i am not seeing the removable drive bays as hot-swappable (ie. no green arrow down by the clock). maybe i am missing a bios setting?

    Quote
    I check two machines today and one is just fine using the removable trays and any drives we put in there show up in the 'safely remove hardware' tool. the other machines does NOT detect any drives inserted while the machine is powered on and something else - under the 'policies' tab the top two choices ('optimize for quick removal' instead of 'optimize for performance') are greyed out but there is an option below them that i can check and uncheck (i cannot remember the exact title of this option).
    I assume you are trying the same drives when you swap the removable trays between the two machines.  Some drives have a jumper that has to be removed to enable SATA II operation, so if they aren't the same physical drives you might want to check that.
    I think the stuff below the greyed out area in your 'Policies' tab is a check box that enables/disables write caching.  You might want to try checking/unchecking that.
    Also, you should check out the IDE/ATA Controller selection in the Device Manager.  Take a look at each instance of controller that shows up there.  SATA controllers actually a primary and secondary channel and each channel has a master and a slave drive, just like old IDE controllers.  Look at each tab on both machines and make sure all of the drive's features are set identically on these tabs.  Sometimes Windows can try to outsmart you. For example, I have an SATA II Maxtor drive that has its transfer mode downgraded to SATA I by Windows (there is a little yellow triangle with a '!' in the middle of the lower part of the panel).  The help balloon for this arrtibutes it to 'excessive transfer errors.'  I haven't tried to chase that one down yet, however.
    As far as setting the machines up the same way, sometimes the sequence of driver installations can have an effect.  For example, a RAID driver installed during Windows setup using the 'F6 - install other driver' option can behave differently from one installed with the Device Manager 'Update Driver' function. 
    Sorry I can't be of more help here. 
    Maybe someone else in this forum is a bit more knowledgable on the subject.

  • P6N SLI Plat and realtek onboard sound in vista ?

    Ok for everybody who's running the onboard sound in vista I have a question for you.  In your realtek settings do you have a multiband eq to adjust settings or is everything just a preset to choose from?  I dl'd the latest realtek drivers 1.67 and no multiband eq, only thing is presets that you must pick from to shape sound.  I'm looking for a multiband eq so I can adjust each frequency myself.  Thanks.

    Everything is just a preset to choose from. I could not find an EQ anywhere. I was actually able to get some nice sound out of the onboard chip. First of all I put a check in "speaker fill". This alone will get sound in all speakers on a surround sound system. Second, I went into "sound effects" and "Room", and then selected "live". Again, this alone will give you sound in all speakers. And third, I set up "room correction" according to my speaker layout. All these combined have produced beautiful sound through my Z680 sound system. Is it true surround sound? I have no idea, but I like it.

  • Onboard sound problems

    Well, for some reason, after installing the Cmedia drivers off of MSI's website and installing them, my 5.1 sound is buggy. I'll be playing games (have only experienced it in games, although I'm not sure if it does it with normal music playing) and all of the sudden, the sound will just  out for no reason.
    It will work from the get go, but after a little bit of workin, it screws up.
    Any ideas?

    I think that you may need to un-install the C-Media and the onboard sound drivers first, reboot system, skip hardware detection and re-install C-Media + onboard sound drivers through the installation wizard of the program.

Maybe you are looking for
