MSI KT4V with usb+bios problem!

hi i have an msi kt4v motherboard: http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/m...ODEL=MS-6712...
and it wont startup my keyboard until windows loads.
i even updated my bios to the vary latest one....in the bios list there is a bios with this details:
BIOS Type AMI® BIOS File Size 514KB
Version 1.7 Update date 2002-12-26
Update Description -Support AMD Barton XP2800+ (FSB333) CPU
-Fixed system sometimes will have IDE CRC error
-Fixed D-bracket2+USB keyboard, cannot use keyboard on DOS mode.
Special note ,
Download 6712v17.exe
that suppose to fix my prob. its not the latest though, the latest is 1.8. i updated to 1.8 directly, i didnt upgrade from 1.7 though, but from an earlier version. is anyone else experiencing this problem? whats strange is that it will work if i clear the cmos and reboot. but then if i restart it wont work. do i have to upgrade to 1.7 then to 1.8?

I have the same problem too. My keyboard\'s cable failed and I replaced it but made it USB only, after the later bios releases it stopped working until windows loaded.
Legacy support is turned on to no avail. I've been keeping a ps/2 keyboard handy for when I have to get into bios or some other command level operation.

MSI MPOWER Renesas USB 3 problem WINDOWS 8 64x

Hi
This morning, all my 4 usb 3 RENESAS ports stop working...Intel ports work well. Looking for driver update but doesnt found for WINDOWS 8 64x... If you have beta driver i take it !
Thanks

Hi...
The problem come back...I turn off my pc after 4-5 days and when i turn on USB 3 Renesas doesn't work again......I update with the new beta BIOS than the last time i had this problem and that work !......for a day. I turn off my pc before sleep and this morning this *********** USB 3 DOESN'T WORK.
I do NOTHING....No new drivers, no new strange windows update.
What i do now ? :( :( I'm tired of all this many problems
Thanks !
Since it worked fine for a while it might be a setting in BIOS messing up USB 3. I recall people with overclocked processors running into USB 3 issues too. Maybe that's what happens here.

I have an MSI Big Bang Marshal with i7 2600K for 18 months. Was running Win7 ultimate x64, Renesas USB 3.0 were recognized by windows but had NEVER worked... Right now is running Win8 Pro x64, it's recognized by windows, but still not working properly. In both cases when I plug a USB 3.0 device to USB 3.0 port (devices: Patriot Supersonic 32 Gb and WD Passport 1 Tb) it is recognized by windows, but the drives have no letter assigned to then and I can't access any data. If I plug an USB 2.0 device to the USB 3.0 ports, they work fine; if I plug an USB 3.0 device to the USB 2.0 ports, they also work fine. In windows 8, first time after install I plugged an USB 3.0 device to USB 3.0 port it worked "fine" but data transfer was around 29Mb/s (moving from WD Passport do main HD a 1,5Gb file, and then moving back to WD Passport - both ways the same speed). After restart computer, both WD Passport and PAtriot Supersonic were back to the status I first mentioned (recognized, but no driver letter assigned).
I have an Asus P8P67 Deluxe with i5 2400 that have the same Renesas USB 3.0 controler. Right now it's running win 7 ultimate x64 and both Patriot Supersonic and WD Passport don't even are recognized in the USB 3.0 ports.
I have also an Lenovo T420s Laptop with i7 2640 that have the same Renesas USB 3.0 controller. It's running Win7 Pro that comes with it, and both Patriot Supersonic and WD Passport work FLAWLESSLY on this laptop!! File transfers reach about 190Mb/s some times.
This is an unrelated issue. Not to mention that you already made a thread regarding that issue of yours.
Anyway, each of the above boards comes with a specific firmware version for that renesas usb 3 controller. The "problem" here is that renesas' controllers have their own firmware which is not part of the motherboard bios (as an option rom). This is bad because the one who makes a board using that controller can't really patch it with a BIOS update. It's also good however, because the end user can get new firmware versions directly by the maker (renesas) even years after the controller was released instead of waiting for msi to issue an update for each of their boards (which is not going to happen if the board is relatively old).
All you have to do is update the firmware of the controllers and you're all set. There should be some tutorials if you search around the net.

[VIA] MSI KT880 Delta-FSR Bios problem

Hi!
I have MSI KT880 Delta-FSR motherboard.My problem is that about every second time when i start my pc BIOS settings will be factory settings.I have to go to bios and change every settings again away.

I have 120mm fan with my cooler.Temperature of the prosessor is about 44-47 celcius.Cooler is over one year old.
I have 2*512M PC 3200 memory.They are not same brand/make.In start i have one memory stick, 512M/Kingston and the problem was same.
All the answers are good what you are writing but i dont understand how those have an effect my BIOS problem ??Sometimes when i start my pc memory clock fz is 266 and its should be 400.I have to go bios the change it and like i write earlier put the onboard lan and ac97 enable.
I close pc this morning when i goto school.When i come afternoon home and turn my pc on i have this message:
"Scan devises,please wait...."
Hardware initiate failed,please check device.The bios does not be installed!Press(g) to continue.
Reboot and select proper boot device.When i do that there is only my cd-rom device.I cant choose HDD drive at all.
I shut down the pc and take another computer ( i have 5) bios battery and the pc start at once.Now i have tho follow can the problem be a consequence of that.

Msi Kt4v With Msi Fx 5200 Td 128 Crash

WHEN I PLAY SOME GAME, FOR EXAMPLE, PRINCE OF PERSIA OR ANOTHER APLICATTION THAT USE DIRECT3D, MY PC FREEZES AND REBOOT.
WHEN I PLAY DXDIAG...THE PC FREEZES TOO
I INSTALED THE LAST VERSION OF THE DRIVERS AND VIA 4 &1 AND LAST VERSION BIOS TOO. I FORMATED THE WINDOWS MANY TIMES.
I THINK THAT AN INCOMPATIBILITY WITH MSI TD 128 FX 5200 AND MSI KT4V ( KT 400).
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS?

I have windows xp sp1
palomino 1,8 - 266 MHZ
256 ddr - 266 mhz
hd maxtor 40 gb - 7200
PSU 500 W -
+3.3 = 28A
+5v = 50A
+12v = 18A

MSI K9A2 with Phenom 9500 problems

I've been asking MSI technical support some questions and after a day or two they just delete the post without giving a reason, so this is nagging me now.
Firstly, I've tried BIOS 1.0, 1.1, P0C, P0D and 113 BETA. The latter is the best one and I'm using it right now.
Problems are many:
1) Before I have booted up at NB frequency 3.1GHz and P95 4-cores over 1hr20mins no problems and ran over 30 benchmarks. Now suddenly I cannot bootup at even NB frequency above 2GHz.
I've booted over 2GHz NB frequency over 60 times neched/tortured stable on stock volts so that can't be the problem. This messes up overclocking completely.
2) I have booted up HT reference clocks of 266MHz maximum. No crash. Now I can't even boot up 241MHz
What is happening, is the source code having problems?
3) Why does AMD OverDrive 2.10 freeze my system if I start it? Why does it suddenly crash my system at stock? Enthusiasts have said its MSI BIOS issue. Whenever I change a single value in there or press "Apply" it will freeze my system. Any fix?
4) Do you have any BETA BIOSes that I can test or modded BIOS yet? I will test them for you if you want because I'm testing this system now and need them. Yes I know the issues with BETA etc, I'm an ex-programmer.
5) Why can I not run DDR2-1066 or higher than ratio 1:2? This is so limiting. Why is there no option for tRC higher than 26?
6) Why can I not run HT from 2GHz-2.6GHz?
7) Why can I not change CPU VID and if so, why does the system not POST?
8) Why can I at times bootup 265MHz HT ref., bench it perfect, pass stability testing and at other time randomly the system will not boot up even if 1MHz above 200MHz? >:(
8) Why does CPU/HT speed downclock if I set NB speed higher than 2GHz or NB multi higher than 9x?
*** Is there any fix to any of the above? I would like some information as soon as you can please, to know what Phenom performs like to sell it or keep it before Xmas.
Thank you in advance. And FYI yes I know how to overclock using MSR Editor/Memset/AOD/AM2+ P-State Values/WPCREDIT, its dangers, how teh NB/HT/CPU speed and voltages are worked out etc. Mmy system is very well cooled in ambient 2-4C and I've only needed stock volts on everything to get 2904MHz screenable, 2860MHz benchable yet. But suddenly, after flashing this BIOS, things have gotten bad.

Thanks for the replies.

Increasing the memory controller's operating frequency will increase performance for sure, but having the HyperTransport speed higher than 1GHz is pointless.
Firstly, the HT frequency can never run above the NB frequency on Phenoms. The system will always make sure the NB frequency is higher than the HT frequency. So to get 2GHz-2.6GHz HT, we have to have high NB speed at 2-2.6GHz or above. But I can't increase NB frequency past 2GHz at all. I can't change NB and CPU VID which AMD said should be changeable and allows overclocking properly. They said its a BIOS problem. And having high HT is supported by Phenoms and should be easy. Which means either the BIOS/board is buggy or the CPU is buggy.
Quote
What other people get doesn't mean you will get the same results; overclocking is a gamble. Give the system some time to breath, run it at stock for a few days, then try overclocking again.
I've had it for 3rd week now and gave it time, first two weeks stock. I think that's long enough. I know it's a gamble, but HT 2.6GHz is not a gamble, it's basic specs it should do with ease. Same with DDR2-1066. The board cannot run anything above divider 1:2 and HT ref. is stuck at 260MHz for the CPU. Which means I cannot run above DDR2-1040 which is still less than my RAM rated speed. I also cannot run the tRC needed for those speeds. BIOS gives no options for it above 24. AMD said it's the BIOS bug.
Quote
The default HT 3.0 speed is 3600MT/s which I believe converts to 2600MHz. Try running the HyperTransport @ 2.6GHz so a x13 multi, then run everything else at stock. Try to see if everything clocks correctly and that the system is stable at stock.
At stock the system runs:
2200MHz CPU speed
200MHz HT ref.
5x 1000MHz HT link
1800MHz NB speed
I can't do above ~1980 on HT and NB no matter what BIOS/OD setting I choose. Absolutely no way, the system will either not POST or downclock automatically. :(
Quote from: Quadrifoglio Verde
Have you read about the Phenom's L3 cache bug? Could be a cause of crashes and what not...
Yes. I've been thinking the same thing but how can I be sure if it's the CPU that's buggy?
Quote
Other answers:
2) Reference clock of 300 here with considerable ease, BIOS 1.0. Might be the cpu that's holding you back...
Yep, it's CPU. My X2 5000 BE can do 400 on the board easy. Maybe more, I've only booted with it 3 times just to check.
Quote
7) By CPU VID you mean Vcore? Only CPU voltage setting available in BIOS, works fine here.
CPU VID is the Voltage ID to each individual core. It decides the Amps fed to each core and is locked on some systems and unlcoked on others AFAIK. It's different to VCore.
Quote
*edit*
Seems like this L3 cache bug might cause your Hyper Transport querks:
Quote
...We tested at a 2.3GHz core clock with a 2.0GHz north bridge clock, because AMD told us those speeds were representative of the Phenom 9600. Our production samples of the Phenom 9500 and 9600, however, have north bridge clocks of 1.8GHz. Because the L3 cache runs at the speed of the north bridge, this clock plays a noteworthy role in overall Phenom performance. We've already confirmed lower scores in some benchmarks...
Source
Does AMD Overdrive provide you with the option to toggle the bug fix on/off?
Hmm.. it looks like I cannot run anything above 1980 on NB or HT anymore. NB frequency really does increase perf. I've tested 2GHz-3.1GHz before last week.

Make sure that you have installed this CPU Driver with Phenom support: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=111451.0
/* else lockups can be expected, when trying to manipulate freq. or during program initializing */
I've had it installed since I got this board.

Other recommendation, switch to SP3(google for it)
Yea but what if that gives me more problems? It'll leave me no where. At least now I know that its not the OS giving me problems.

MSI KT4V-L Ultra Power Problems

Hi,
Sorry if this is a dumb question but I need an answer quickly and this seemed the best place to ask...
I have just built a system with the following specs:
MSI KT4V-L Ultra
Athlon XP 2100
256 DDR 2700
350 W PS (came with a fairly exspensive case)
32MB TNT 2
Built it - fired up no problem with case open. Installed Windows 98 no problem. Installed a few more items of software - no problem. Everything running - no crashes/stability issues.
I then re-attatched the sides and front of the case, and turn the PC on. Nothing happens. I turn off the switch at the back of the power supply and then turn it on again. Upon pressing the power button on the case the Diagnostic LEDs + case power LED flash very briefly and then nothing. The Power supply fan does not turn.
Does this problem sound like the mobo or the PSU? I know the next stage is to test the PSU on its own but unfortunatley I can't do that from work!
Has anyone come across a problem like this before? My instinct tells me it is the PSU as I have changed nothing on the mobo - Any help/advice really appreciated!

Thanks - I'm really hoping it's not the mobo.
Would that explain why there is power for a fleeting moment before it dies?
If I try the power switch at the front again after one failure nothing at all happens - until I turn the Power supply switch off and then on again...
What is the easiest way to test the switch - would shorting the two Power Switch pins on the motherboard do it?
(Is this a common problem?!?)

MSI 6368 with USB problem (URGENT)

I have an urgent need to solve this problem.
Client has a computer based on this motherboard, with Celeron 1.1 Ghz, WIN 98 Second Edition.
The USB port works with a Microsoft mouse. Client tries to install a Canon digital camera (D60), but the USB port cannot see the camera.
Is there something I should be doing?
Thanks a lot

try a different cable? Not sure about Canon but they might need a program that they supply with the camera to move the files off of the camera. Sort of like MP3 players and how they ship with their own proprietary software to move files onto the player and etc.

MSI GP70 PE2 Leopard Bios Problem

Hello,
i get today my new Notebook MSI GP70 PE2 Leopard.
I wanted to install Windows 7 64bit in UEFI and there was constantly an error message.
Then I tried to find something in the internet, found that should install the new BIOS.
I was trying to do.
Since then the unit will not start, or if I press the power button it goes to short blue, then red, lasts few seconds, will get back shortly blue and then it stays red, but the screen will not boot.
is there a way to completely reset the unit to the old UEFI Bios or a way to make a BLIND Flash?
I would be grateful for any help
Thanks
Mathias

Did you finish the BIOS update process? Is there any unusual messages show up during the update?
Tell which version you had and to which version you're updating to.
If you can't enter the BIOS menu, then I'd say go for RMA service.
Update:
You can only install Windows 7 under Legacy mode/UEFI with CSM.

MSI Radeon RX9800PRO Plus BIOS Problem?

I have the card listed above. When i try to use Live Update 3, under VGA card info it does not detect the card i have. It says this...
MSI Live VGA DriverTM Version: 3.58.000
VGA Card Information:
VGA Card Manufacturer MSI
VGA Card Model Name UNKNOWN
VGA Card BIOS Vendor ATI
VGA Card BIOS Version UNKNOWN
VGA Card Driver Version 6430
Because it cannot detect the Model name and BIOS version Live Update always just says everything is ok and up to date. But i know its not cause i had to manually go to msi site and get latest card drivers. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the fact that i flashed the BIOS before then back, and if so i was wondering if anyone has the original factory BIOS for this card.

Since this is an MSI video card I am going to move this post to the VGA forum where all the experts hang out.

MSI Z68A-GD80 B3 bios problem :(

Hi... I've got a very strange problem with my motherboard. The bios diode is blinking (I know that it means my first bios has failed). But I tried fixing method from topic with GD65 and it didn't work. Any ideas?

Remove the PSU power cord, remove the battery for awhile, clear CMOS, reset making sure to enable BIOS update again, save & exit, & then see if the chip LED stops flashing.

MSI P67A-G45 B3 Bios problems

Hi!
okey, i think i have up badly. I had problems whit some dots om my right screen and someone told me that a bios uppdate could solve it, so yes i treid, whit help, and i got the update, it works great, but the problem is, he who helpt me (who works whit fixing computers and know a lot more then me) didn't know what ME8 and ME7 stands for, so we installed the latest bios that natrualy is a ME8 version, but my CPU is way to old and when i try to start windows i get the lovely blue screen, so no way for me to get in to windows.
so, i try to download a older bios version on the other pc, put it on a USB key and use the m-flash built in to the bios, then i get a new problem, it wont find the file.
it's flat 32, i put the file in the root but still nothing. i even took out all HDD's and disc drives.
so i kinda wounder, is there any other way then buy a new CPU or motherboard to solve this?
sorry for my bad english btw

i must say i don´t know, i don't even know what any ot i means :(
but i think the problem is that the bios is for ivy bridge CPU (ME8) and mine is not
but my windows was installed from a clean SSD drive, no upgraded version or anything like that. and it's windows 7 home premium.
but as it is now, i can even get in to windows, blue screen is all i get
Don't worry about bios version.
Plug in your PC and Enter the bios (F2 or SUPPR key) and set parameter "Integrated peripherals" in AHCI.
Save and reboot.
Try this and tell us the result.

Msi KT4V have multipier setting problem??

MSI KT4V and Barton 3000+ crash problem

Hi all!
I recently upgraded my PC (MSI KT4V) with an AMD Barton 3000+ CPU. Before I had a 2600+ Throughbred.
With my old 2600+ I could run my system stable with a FSB set at 166. It couldn't go much higher that 175 before the system became unstable.
With my new Barton I have a problem :
With my FSB set at 166 games like Far Cry and COD crashes. Explorer crashed at sites with Flash content (flash.ocx error report) otherwise no problems. My Pinnacle studio 7 program couldn't render playable movies.
After I underclocked my CPU, setting the FSB at 154 giving me a total speed of 2GHz, all problems are gone now
My system reports a CPU temp at 48 degrees celsius at a 166 FSB setting but could it be a cooling problem anyway?
I have used Artic Silver as thermal paste on the CPU die.
I have reset my memory timings to CAS 2,5 even though the Corsair RAM supports CAS 2 to get the most stable system.
Is the KT 400 chipset up for the job with the increased speed?
I would like to get the most performance out of my new Barton so I hope that some of you guys can help me out here.
My system spec is :
Win XP SP1 and SP2
CPU : AMD Barton XP 3000+
Motherboard : MSI KT4V (Bios 1C0)
Soundcard : SB Audigy 2
Graphics card : Radeon 9800pro 256
Memory : 1GB Corsair XMS (CAS 2)
Power suply : Antec 480W
All latest drivers installed
Best Regards
Basse

Hi Osnavi!
48 degrees is an idle temp and about 51 stressed.
The processor is an Athlon 3000+ 333MHz
The cooler is a Thermaltake Silent Boost
I have 2 modules 512 MB Corsair XMS PC 2700 333MHz placed in slot 1 and 3
I forgot to tell that I ran memtest386 with the fsb set at 166 and I had error reports on the 128Kb L1 cache right away. Lowering the fsb to 154, the memtest came out alright.
Should I remove the heatsink and reaply cooling paste - silver-free maybe?
Strange
Any ideas are welcome
Best regards
Basse

Msi kt4v and tv-cards, a no-go ?

Hello ,
I just wanted to share my experience with this board and tv-cards . It seems not one tv card seems to work as it should on this board !??!
This is the conclusion i must come too after having tested several cards off different manufacturers.
radio on these cards does work without a flaw , but whenever tv function is used , screen output is garbled, just impossible to watch.
I wonder where the problem lies :
having had those cards in an kt7a (kt133a chipset) from abit without a problem and also on an msi intel bx mobo without probs,
i can only conclude its the freaking mobo witch does something wrong, might it be the VIA kt400 ???
it is not os related since all pc have same os = Win XP.
APIC doesnt make a difference and it shouldn't as apic is a part of pci 2.1 standard (so is acpi). after trying every possible permutation of pci card / slot configuration nothing helps.
Can someone research this further ?
whenever cpu usage goes up to full i even had some more garbled pics where something was vissible : this is very strange, de cpu seems to send out high frequencies that mess up the system somewhere.
sys specs :
MSI KT4V version 1
bios 1.8
XP 2500+
512Meg 333 DDR 1 stick
enermax 460Watt PSU (430 true watts)
GeForce 3 Ti200 hercules
SB audigy
RTL 8139 nic (el cheapo)
2 * seagate barracuda IV 40 gig
cdrw plextor
dvd pioneer
tested cards : hauppauge wintv series and aver tvphone series
greetings

hi maesus,
all those options have already been tried and nothing really does any affect accept when i ennabled cpu halt detection: it got even worse, i never used that option to start with
changing pci latency did nothing and i keep it at lowest possible therefore.
delay transaction enabled did nothing and i keep it dissabled since i have no problem with the audigy installed, the sound is perfect. also tried combinations of these settings.
i also can't seem to get 256Meg AGP aperture size to be recognized when set in bios to 256 all possible programs return a size of 128 ?
i also tried diferent winxp kernels : acpi uniproccesor (with apic) , advanced configuratio..... kernel, standard pc kernel. no differences whatsoever. everything works as it should witch is in fact great , except the darned tv-cards, that is to say, their picture is messed up.
i wish i could try it on an nforce2 board
greetings
