MSI KT3 and G4TI 4200 problems

Hello,
I'm having some problems with new MSI hardware and hoping to could get some advice. I've read though the forums but I'm left more lost and confused than enlightend  ?(
Problems..
1. Cannot get MSI G4 4200 to run in AGP 4x. Once enabled in bios 3D Mark 2001 and all games crash in 4x mode. Ok in 2x.
2. Cannot get Live update to work with any Nividia drivers. (Need MSI Video card) It says..
3. Cannot get 3D! Turbo Experience to run. Get an MSIVGA.ocx ininalization error. Then get a popup box saying..
***MSI VGA Monitor Warning Message***
 Memory I/O voltage is unusual
 Now memory I/O voltage is : 2.69 Volt
 Memory voltage is unusual
 Now memory voltage is : 3.26 Volt
What?
Though PC Alert nor SiSoft Sandra reports any errors.

  • MSI KT3 and XP1700 JIUHB DLT3C 0319vpmw

    Hi all,
    I have a MSI kt3 and TBred XP1700@1838Mhz core 1.47v (default) currently working with a FSB 167x11 with crucial memory PC2700 2.6V settings 2.5-2-6-2. Temp are now cpu 39c surfing&listening music.
    My question is in the bios (last version, 5.70) I don't have the options of 11.5 to 13.5 multiplier so I wonder how I can enable them (I thought it would be unlocked).
    My other option could be to increase the multiplier up to 14x166=2324 mhz but I think this speed is going to be unreachable considering i have normal cooling (rated up to XP3200) and its a very high overclock for the XP1700.
    could anybody tell me how to unlock the multiplier?
    will it be risky to try 14x166 to get 2324?
    thanks a lot,

    I have found the multiplier  :D : just to scroll down in the bios and here they are!!!!
    Now working  2046@12x170 with core 1.5v and 37C normal use up to 45C after 3Dmark. Still room to increase but I am happy with that by now   .

  • MSI G4Ti-4200 problem

    Hey all, hope you can help me out.
    Having some major problems with installing the Ti4200 64 card on my system. My system continually crashes with it and no games or programs run for very long, freezing or just not loading, due to lack of virtual memory.
    I've downloaded the latest patch for my motherboard and graphics card so its not that.  Might be the psu as its only 300w so I'm looking into upgrading that. Could there be a prob with the motherboard, memory or psu.  I can't afford to upgrade all of them so is there a way of finding out which one it could be.
    System:
    Win 98
    Athlon Thunderbird 1.1
    FIC AZ11 motherboard
    765 crucial sdram pc133 (1 x 256 and 1 x 512)
    Maxtor Plus8 IDE 40 gig Hard Drive
    MSI G4 Ti4200 td-64
    Creative SB Live!
    Liteon dvd
    300w psu

    hi again,
    here are the specs for my psu.
    +3.3v - 15A
    +5v - 35A
    +12v - 10A
    -5v - 0.5A
    -12v - 0.5A
    I've since flashed my motherboard with the latest bios, probably not the wisest thing to do in hindsight as now nothing happens at all with the msi agp card so i'm running off my pci voodoo 3 2000 now. As far as the cmos is concerned, its got all the same settings as before and now i'm totally confused. I'm guessing a new psu is the order of the day.

  • MSI 8500GT and Viewsonic 24" Problems

    I have a MSI NX8500GT-TD256EH (GeForce 8500GT) connected to a ViewSonic VX2435WM. The monitor has a HDMI input and I am using the included DVI to HDMI cable. The native resolution is 1920x1200. I'm running Vista 32-bit with 163.69.
    Before I load the Nvidia drivers, the picture looks normal. However, once I load the drivers, the picture becomes distorted (blurry text, messed up colors, etc). When I look at the resolution notice on the monitor's OSD, it says it is running at 1200p. Before the Nvidia drivers are installed, it says it is running at 1920x1200.
    I've looked all over the Nvidia control panel and I believe the software thinks the video card is connected to a HDTV, rather than a monitor. It shows that it is being connected via HDMI, even though the output on the video card is DVI.
    I have connected the monitor to some other other computers and it works fine on both a Radeon 9600 and a MSI 8600GT. They are all connected the same way: DVI output from video card into HDMI input on monitor. When it is connected to these computers, the monitor's OSD correctly recognizes 1920x1200 and the Nvidia control panel shows it is connected via DVI.
    I have tried a few different versions of the latest ForceWare drivers and also tried BETA drivers. Right now I am running 163.69.
    Any suggestions on what I can do to get a clear image? Right now the only thing that works is uninstalling the Nvidia drivers and using the standard VGA drivers from Microsoft, which obviously isn't an option.

    There's a slight chance that the nVidia driver can't read what modes the screen can display - although it seems unlikely.
    I had problems with an NEC HDTV (1366 x 768 native resolution), which would work perfectly with a 1360 x 768 analogue VGA input, but if I tried the DVI-D input, the card (7300GS) sent out 1280 x 768, and the picture panned when the cursor went off screen. This was nVidia's response...
    Thank you for contacting NVIDIA Customer Care. NVIDIA GPUs allow resolutions depending on a monitor EDID. An EDID is an electrical signal sent by a monitor/tv which tells it which modes it supports. While set top players designed specifically for HD modes may not need this, PC's do since they support many more types of video display modes and to prevent damage to a display, will only send out a signal that a monitor tells the graphics card it supports. An HDTV generally only accepts HD signals through the DVI or HDMI input and therefore it's EDID through this input only accepts HD resolutions such as 720p (1280x720). However through your VGA input, it will allow different resolutions and therefore the EDID that the HDTV sends to the graphics card through the VGA input is different from that of the HDMI/DVI output. This is why the graphics card gives you different options depending on which input you have it hooked up to. If you wish to use your HDTV for only movies, we recommend using the DVI input however if you will be using it as a PC monitor where you may need to read text or view small objects, then it is recommended that you use the VGA input which will allow you to run without any scaling. Unfortunately, there is no workaround for this situation as everything is working as designed.
    Sometimes the technology is too clever by half!
    However, this doesn't explain your problem if you can get it to work with a different card, but the same driver.
    The only other thing I can think of is that the monitor isn't mapping the incoming pixels to the display pixels properly, although that should only apply to analogue inputs, since with DVI/HDMI, each pixel value is sent as a binary number, and it's position is inherently defined. With analogue signals, there's no separate clock signal to tell the monitor exactly when to sample each pixel, hence the Clock and Phase adjustments.
    Maybe it is the HDCP nobbling the resolution - if the monitor doesn't tell the 8500GT that it supports HDCP, the 8500GT might decide to throttle back the resolution. Grrr!
    Probably not much help I'm afraid, maybe someone else has some ideas.
    Cheers

  • Msi K8N and possible directx problem

    Hi guys,
    System
    MSI K8N Neo Platinum
    AMD 64 3200
    Enermax 600w (2*12V rails, one at 18, the other at 17)
    WinXP, Dx9c
    Other system components 1xSeagate 80gb SATA, 1xLiteon dvd/cd-r
    512Mb Kingston Ram (1 stick)
    Used MSI Live to update board bios to latest as well as nVidia chipset drivers.
    Asus Geforce4 Ti4200 128mb
    Doom3 runs without a hitch,
    UT2004, Everquest both are displaying serious graphical problems including missing textures, shearing, alot of  flickering
    Dxdiag performs all tests without any errors, have yet to try 3dmark.
    Tried changing AGP to 4x and disabling fast write, together and seperatly, graphical concerns only seemed to worsen.
    I have already upgraded to the PSU mentioned above as the Antec that i was using wasnt up to the task, this allowed the 3d games to actually run.
    So, any ideas on what I should be trying next? It seems that Open GL games are performing normally, whereas directX games are causing trouble.
    Josh.

    Thanks vlovich,
    I have tried the nvidia drivers v61.76  and 61.77 and also tried the beta v62.11 and v62.20.
    I have not oc'ed the video card at all, tho winXP is reporting it as running at 8xagp in the device manager applet. When i modified the agp speed in the bios to 4x the problems "seemed" to get worse so I put the setting back to auto.
    I haven't attempted the asus drivers, so I will give those a go.
    Josh.

  • MSI K8T and 3400+ HUGE problem

        I'm in computers since 1993 and I've never had a single problem I was unable to deal with. But my last 4 days have become a nightmare  . I guess it's finaly time to ask someone for help.
    So I descided to make an upgrade and got myself a MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R motherboard and a AMD 64 3400+ Clawhammer CPU. The expected from me 10-minute long upgrade operation became as I already said 4-day long and I still don't see light in the tunnel.
    So what the problem is - I put together the hardware but when I pressed the power up button I got "Bios not installed" message at start up along with "CMOS settings wrong" and "If you have built SATA Raid array prevoiusly go to p20378 SATA controller set as raid".
    Press F1 to enter setup
    Press F2 to load defualt values and continue
    If I go into bios and set the time etc. and reboot the system it hangs. The PC seems to reset but the monitor shuts down so I don't know if the PC is hanging or I'm losing the signal to my monitor?
    If I press F2 Windows XP loads up fine but I can not change my agp setting etc. as the system fails to boot after saving bios config and I have to clear the CMOS using the jumper in order for me to restart the machine. When I shut down the machine in XP I still have to clear the Cmos in order to boot.
    Even if I'm willing to clear the CMOS every time I want to turn my PC on there's still another problem. After eventualy Windows XP loads the CPU is running on rediculous 800 MHz instead of 2200 MHz. The problem is the multiplier which is set on x4 and won't move from this possition. The problem is not Cool'n'Quite because I don't have the software for it installed under Windows XP. And using the BIOS default settings by pressing the F2 button in the begining I guess is turning the Cool'n'Quite off in the BIOS.
    I updated the BIOS and all the drivers to the last from the MSI webite using the last version of Liveupdate 3.
    I even tried changing the Cmos battery even though the MoBo is brand new. Still same thing.
    Pleaseeeee give me some ideas of how to sort the problems out. I'm really geting MENTALY unstable    

    Hello again and thank you for the quick respond. I'll start with the system specs first:

    PSU Jeantech 450 W http://www.jeantech.com/450.htm
    ... and a floppy
    Now to answer on your questions 1 by 1.
    First of all the fisrt thing to do after the software war was to change the Cmos battery with a new one and try - no good - still the same problem.
    Second - The PSU I belive is sufficient. And Yes I have the 4 pin/12 V power connector for the CPU power connected.
    The D-Bracket - after I start the computer it gets to the screen with the F1 setup or F2 load default and continue. As I said before if I press F1 and make all the BIOS settings as time, date,  sequence etc. and press Save changes to BIOS and Exit the PC seems to reset but the monitor shuts down. At this time D-Bracket indicates "Early Chipset Initialization" (Upper left light in green and the rest in red) and stays like this forever. After I clear the Cmos it starts again and it gets to the same screen with the message "CMOS settings wrong" and the 2 choices F1 setup or F2 load default and continue.
    Fourth -  I don't have any SATA drives at all.
    About memtest - I got the banks of RAM from my WORKING PC and just installed them the new MoBo. And because one of them is 333 DDR I descided to remove it and try with only the Corsair one which is 400 DDR. I tried and vice versa too - still the same problem.
    As I said before if I choose F2 and load the default BIOS settings Windows XP loads and the PC is stable - no random resets or any unstability problems whatsoever. Problem is the CPU is working on only 800 MHz - because of the x4.0 multiplier.
    That's all I can say. Please give me some advise - I haven't had normal sleep for 5 days already - I just can't accept the fact that I can't manage to sort out my problem. Thanks again!

  • Msi Diamond and four memorycomps - problems?

    I have installed four 512Mb ddr566@500 comp's and now when I have used the machine a while, winxp will pop up a blue screen. The machine will restart then (so quickly, that I can't read the errormessage).
    Before I had two 512Mb ddr566@500 comp's, without problems.
    Is this board unable to handle four memorycomps, or what might be the problem? I have already ran memorytest succesful. In the manual reads, that when using four comp's, the maxium speed is ddr333? The cpu is Opteron148, with venus core.
    Edit. BTW can someone say, is my PSU strong enough to run whole machine. It is Tagan 2force 480W and machine: Msi diamond, 148Op, 2Gb ram, 2x 6800 ultra, 2x hdd, audigy4 pro, 3x 120mm casefan. When I plug two more hdd's, nvidia system will show error, that power is not enough to graphic cards. The manual says, that the mainboard want 450W or more psu.

    MSI always have the color code for vdimm.
    It's what the vendor of the modules state for nominal voltage that counts .
    If they say 2.8 i would run 2.8 or higher (not below) . 0.05 higher to compensate for voltage drops during load.
    Double 6800 Ultras (stock clocked) pci-e draws something around 70w from the +12v line each in full 3D mode/load. (in idle 2D mode about 30w each)
    Thats almost 6A per card , times two it's 12A just for your graphics in the highest load situation .
    I'm not sure though if SLI balances toe load exactly equal , but lets assume so to be sure .
    Then atleast 8-10A from +12 goes to your cpu depending on model and if overvolted/overclocked .
    And consider apx. 1A +12v usage for each HDD and optical (although the use a bit more at spinup , but then the gfx's are in 2D mode) .
    1A +12v for mobo .
    Fans run off +12v .
    Memory runs off +3.3v or +5.0v depending on motherboard design .
    Add things up and have a rule of using a load target for the PSU @ 80% (fully loaded PSU's loose efficiancy and stability .
    There is some guideline of SLI building and dimensioning of PSU you might wanna check out over at nvidia .

  • MSI NEO2 and Asus v9999GT problems

    Hi,
    well my problem is when the Asus v9999GT is installed i boot windows up but it just keeps restarting or blue screening(i see the desktop then it restarts*if i dont get a blue screen that is) It usely takes 4-5 restarts before windows finally starts. Ive reinstalled the comp 4 times trying to fix the problem but had no luck finally i reinstalled the comp with my 9000 Pro II and no more restarting no more blue screening windows starts normally. But thats not a fix i bought the new card and im not going to let $530 go down the drain. It seems to me its the NEO 2 that does not like the Asus, i try the asus in my old comp and everything works fine.
    Is there a fix coming up, i know others who have the same problem
    btw its not the ram i did a memtest and no errors
    AMD 3500+
    MSI Neo 2
    1Gb Geil RAM CAS2.53-3-7
    Asus v9999
    Windows SP2

    I don't think it's PSU related caused by the gfx card if
    it is the asus 9999GT/TD . As this is a 6800 board with GT core clock
    and 128M DDR1 memory.
    And in 2D windows it should use estimatly 20W .
    :Xbitlabs
    The NVIDIA GeForce 6800 eats less energy than the GeForce GT as it has lower frequencies and the GPU voltage . As a result, without overclocking, the card consumes 16.96W(10w on +12v) in the Idle mode(2D) and 38.88W in the Burn mode(3D).
    Real GT:
    23w in idle mode and 53w in burn mode(3D) .
    So it consumes something between those two i guess.
    If you suffer from restarts in only in windows (2D) your gfx card don't use
    any more power than your R9000 in 3D does (which worked running games i guess).
    But if you didn't run/test the 9000 in any burn mode or 3dmark , it might
    be PSU tipping over afterall.
    Could be some drivers/sw causing it.
    Try to edit your boot.ini file and turn off DEP
    Edit noexecute switch it to be like this:
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=alwaysoff /fastdetect

  • MSI kt3 ultra aru sound problems

    i have this board (kt3 ultra aru) and i can't make the center/sub outputs on the audio bracket to work.
    the rear outputs are ok, but center/sub... dead. I only have that channels when I don't use the bracket.
    Is my bracket damaged? or maybe a software related issue?

    Why not try to reinstal drivers and check for new ones if any  )

  • MSI-5169 and 40gb HD Problem

    Hi
    We have a computer running on a msi-5169 motherboard v2.9.  We bought a Western Digital 40gb hard drive for it but it will not recognise the drive.  The bios was sitting on version 2.5 so we upgraded the bios to version 3.6 hoping this would sort out the problem.  But it still does not work.
    Is this motherboard not compatible with drives this big?  Is there anything we can do?
    Thanks
    Haggis

    limit it to 32gb with another jumper

  • MSI 870a-G54 Hard drive problem.

    About a week ago i reinstalled Windows because it started to slow down (virusses and what not) And as soon as i reinstalled everything (programs games etc etc) One of my harddrives used for games did not show up at the bios and at My computer.
    So this entire week i've been trying to get it to work again and i've narrowed down the problem today to the BIOS and/or motherboard not giving the power to the HDD in order for it to start and be recognized in BIOS and Windows.
    What ive done to come to this conclusion:
    - Reinstalled Windows twice,
    - Replaced CMOS Battery,
    - Flashed the BIOS to every BIOS setting the MSI website had to offer. None worked for the HDD to get powered up again.
    - Moved CMOS jumper,
    - Changed SATA and powercables on harddrive,
    - Tried the HDD on another test PC i had and reformatted it there as well,
    - Only hooked up the not working HDD to the PC, (HDD did not spin up, and came to the conclusion at this point that motherboard or BIOS is the culprit)
    - Unplugged the powercable to the not working HDD and plugged it back in when the PC was running and i could feel it spinning up, after this i restarted the PC so that the HDD would still get power and it was recognized by the BIOS and Windows and i could use it. As soon as i shut down the PC entirely and restarted it the HDD would not spin up. And i had to unplug power to the HDD and plug it in again and restart PC for it to work properly.
    - Checked for bad sectors nothing found,
    Everything else is working perfectly. Except that one HDD not getting the power when booting up the PC.
    The HDD in question is the "Samsung HD502HJ 500gig" used for Steam games.
    PC Specs:
    CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 955 Black edition. Put on a new CPU cooler last summer (Cooler master Hyper 212 Plus)
    Mobo: MSI 870a-G54
    PSU: Antec EarthWatts EA650 (650 Watts)
    Graphics card: Powercolor PCS+ HD5870 Put on a custom cooler last summer (Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme 5870)
    RAM: Kingston ValueRam 1333Mhz DDR3 (8gigs 4x 2gig) Bought 4 gigs extra last summer
    HDD1: Seagate ST3160812 AS 160gig used for Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit (Works perfectly)
    HDD2: Samsung HD204UI 2TB used for Storage / Other games than i have on Steam. (works perfectly) Bought last summer with the cooling/system upgrade
    HDD3: Samsung HD502HJ 500gig used for Steam games. (Does not work anymore after reinstal) Bought 2 years ago along with the rest of the PC
    I am completely at a loss here as to what the problem is. I do not have the funds to buy a new piece of hardware at this time (i think the entire week of struggle would back that up for me lol...). And ive basically tried everything what i know and what i've found through Google and friends. Might have been better going straight to MSI forum and post my problem here but narrowing it down to this not only helps me but the person that is going to post below in this thread as well lol.
    Thanks in advance and i hope to hear from anyone soon.

    Quote from: Bas on 09-March-12, 19:16:21
    Try drive in different PC, as it looks like it died.
    HDD's always spinup as soon as power is applied, ergo I think the drive died.
    Ive tried it already in 2 different PC's and i have to apologize here for not mentioning that earlier in the topic.
    The drive spins up perfectly in both of those PC's and ive checked for bad sectors on both of those PC's as well and it showed that the drive was 100% healthy on both PC's
    The drive was working perfectly fine before the reinstallation of windows. Thats why i dont think the drive has died. Because it would be weird that the drive just suddenly gave up right when im reinstalling windows..
    It also doesnt add up when i plug the powercable back into the drive while the PC is running and it spins up then and works perfectly until PC is shut down. Thats why i had it narrowed down to the BIOS and/or Motherboard being the culprit.
    My best guess is that its software related because the PC does boot up so its not a hardware problem.
    P.S.
    A friend of mine said that it could be a powersaving issue. But ive looked into the BIOS and i could not find anything about it.

    That was my last stuff what i tried (options snd-... in modprobe.conf)
    Thanks and sorry for my bad english

    Add this to your modprobe.conf :
    options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-6ch
    It will add a headphones switch to your alsa control which if you disable will mute the onboard speakers.
    Works on my MSI vr600

  • Msi kt3 ultra, msi gf4 4200 tvout problem

    I have a msi gf4 4200 64mb card and i have a msi kt3 ultra aru and windows xp,
    my problem is tv out is garbled in pal , ntsc is grey (iam in europe), the colours seem inverted blues are red, etc and theres a ghosting effect around moving images like in videos or around the cursor
    Ive tried everything from default mem setting , to high performance , tried diferent driver sets , tried windows 2000, tried via chipset drivers, latest msi, nvidia gf drivers, pal b , g , i , 60hz, diferent resolutions, clone view, single output to tv, stretch view , nothing seems to fix it, the only thing that comes close to fixing it is using the tvtool http://tvtool.info/ with color fix correction activated, but the images isnt stable its got a weird strecthing, shimmering effect on the bottom half of the tv image
    Iam sure that the problem is not tv or cable related because i tried a friends p4 (board msi sis 645dx) with the exact same model gf4 4200 (not my one) with my scart cable and tv set up and it worked fine.
    Could it be a voltage problem? ive even tried upping agp and core voltage a bit to see if helps, and nothing

    mhuizing,
    nope havent tried a diferent tv , but it should work ,  i tested the connection with a friends computer
    exact same gfx card model and it worked fine!  
    My old system leadtek gf3 ti200 , epox 8kha+ worked fine with this connection.
    Iam using a scart cable to a video , then from the vid to the tv via antena cable
    i upgraded and voila, i got some headaches for free  :P !!!

  • Msi KT3 MoBo / MSI geForce4 TI 4200 Problem

    Hello, hopefully someone can help me.  I am having a rather unusual problem.  Least I think it is.  I have a MSI kt3 ultra2 motherboard, 512 meg ddr 2100 crucial ram.  AMD XP 2000+ CPU and an MSI Geforce4 TI4200 video card.  First of all, what agp settings should i use?  4x? 2x?.  Secondly, should i enable agp fast writes?  And last, what are the other 2 settings in the agp setup in the bios which are like 1/2 or 2/3?
    I also ran mad onions 3d mark 2001 SE and got a score of 4898!  This seems a little low to me.  Comparing online, I should be getting scores rannging from 9000 to 13000.  I have installed Nvidia Detonator drivers but they are the latest beta drivers.  Are these bad drivers?  None of my games ever freeze except for Soldier of Fortune 2.  It slows way down and when i ctrl+alt+del, it says i am using 100% cpu usage.  Can anyone help me?  I just want my system i bought a week ago to run at its full potential and have nowhere else to turn.  

    I am using Windows XP Pro.  I am running the 3d Mark 2001 SE with a 1024 resolution and no AA.  I am also using a 32bpp color depth.  The defaults when you load the program up for the first time basically.  I never did get a patch for SOF II although I should have.  Man do I fell like such a n00b.
    Hey Jamie B, you said i should "disable support for advanced cpu controls is NOT checked".  Where is that at?
    Thanks to all who have replied. :D   I appreciate it.

    Yes the cooler fan is working fine
    Yes I did try it on another PC and the problem of lines running down the screen persisted.
    Yes it must be the agp card.
