MSI KT6 Delta and xp2600(333) cpu clock

I am new to this so thanks in advance to everyone. This may not be a pure overclocking issue but it seemed like a good active forum.
Just put together a kt6 delta lsr and xp2600(thoroughbred B 333 fsb machine). The 2600 according to AMD(and everything else I have seen) should be clock speed of 166 x 12.5 as the multiplier...so up to 2.088 GHz. The BIOS on this board doesn't separate the 12.5 from the 13(I hope there are others out there that have had this) as it is 12.5/13.
Now when I install and do the BIOS stuff if I pick the 'auto' selection I get BSOD with some cryptic error code. If I manually pick the 12.5/13 multiplier it doesn't work either. I have managed to get 163,164, 165 'auto' or 12.5/13 at times but it is not stable. Sisandra didn't like it at all.
I am currently settling for 166 or 167 x12 as this has been extremely stable and functional(3-4 hour video compressions have worked great). If I go any higher to 168-170 I have had some issues and not totally stable(not as bad as the 12.5/13 mulitplier I used with 163,164 etc).
Now since the 'manual' multiplier is 12.5/13 together does this mean by choosing 'auto' it uses the same one, it seems like it so hence it may be trying to push the 13 at which point the RAM or something may be causing errors. ??? ( just some thoughts as I attempt to reason)
Almost all my components are new except for the harddrives but can't imagine that has anything to do with it all. So basically I have a good cpu but can't utilize it to the fullest and have to 'overclock' just to get to where it should be operating. I can't seem to approach that either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. If there are settings/setup that I forgot please just ask.
Thanks.

Thanks.
My temperatures seem fine. Low 40's. Even after 4-5 hours of video compression with the 167 x12 that I am using I only hit 43 or so.
I do wonder if anyone else out there as they same set up in terms of the same xp2600-333 chip and this motherboard. That choice of multipliers still seems odd. I think I may have mentioned it but does the 'auto' use just 'select' from the choice of multiples that we can pick manually? Unless it creates its own multiple that must be the problem. Can it oscillate between the 12.5 and 13 and hence just screw things up?
Thanks.

MSI KT6 Delta and Auto update page problem

Hi, I have been lookin for the right forum to post this on for awhile heh but I have an MSI KT6 Delta FIS2R which has an auto update feature that uses an icon on ur desktop called MSI Live Update. This utility has been working for quite some time now but all of a sudden i get an error message in quote
"Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e09'
Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.
/autobios/VerChk/XSeries.asp, line 105"
I have been on a few sites including microsofts to try and figure out the problem but i get nothing concrete or at least anything i can understand, so I hope someone out here does and if so please help me! thank u

okay well I did that but does not seem to be working... also after just reading FAQ i noticed that the live update service is being updated which coul dbe causing the problem as well, but i dont know how accurate the date is on that I mean it is a FAQ. So.. is anyone else with this board having the same problem right now?

MSI KT6 Delta LSR SATA to PATA High CPU Usage Problem

Well recently I've switch to my one of my other motherboards on my network to a MSI KT6 Delta LSR, it was working fine after a reformat, but I notice a few problems and that is 100% cpu usage for SATA to PATA, and vice versa, which seems really crazy. Then my network card performance is ISDN speed sluggish, and I tested my line to be working 100% with another mobo. But when I put another NIC on the same mobo it suffers the same speed problems.
Any suggestions? The rig is specs:
Barton 2500+
Antec QuietPower 350W
200GB Seagate SATA HDD
40GB Seagate PATA HDD
ATI Radeon 7500 AIW
Audigy 2 Value
Realtek 8139 NIC
MSI KT6 Delta LSR Mobo
2x512 MB PC 2700 RAM
Pioneer 107D DVD Writer
LG 16X DVD-ROM
56K Modem (A-open)

Shouldn't say what I don't know about SATA, but since I found below, I need ask if VIA 4in1 drivers are installed, preferably while in SafeMode I say:
http://www.google.se/search?q=cache:X6ewgPiIHYcJ:www.qdi.nl/cgi-bin/bbs/YaBB.pl%3Fboard%3DP4I865%3Baction%3Ddisplay%3Bnum%3D1074174096+sata+to+pata+cpu+usage&hl=sv
I recently installed 160g Seagate barracuda 7200.7 drive on SATA port. (I enabled the Bios using Auto) I have a P4I865pea-6al mother board, with two PATA drives . When copying files between the PATA drives on ide ports, to or from, the SATA drive, I notice the CPU usage goes up to 100%, but when copying files from one ide drive (the PATA drives) to another the CPU usage is very low.
Is there a bios setting that will allow me to copy files from the SATA drive to the Pata drives using a small amount of CPU power, found when just copying between the Primary and Secondary IDE drives? I am using Adobe premiere pro, which uses a lot of CPU power, and the high CPU usage of the SATA drive crashes this program? Any help would be appreciated

MSI KT6 Delta FISR KT600 Wont Start Up

Hi All I Have a MSI KT6 Delta FISR Motherboard With a AMD Athlon XP 2400+ 2.00GHZ In My Spare Pc and It Was Working Fine Last Week But When i Turned It On I Seen That My hard Drives Were Not Detected In The Bios Under Standard CMOS Settings So I Saved My Bios and Turned Off The Pc To Sort The Drives and When I went To Turn It Back On It Wouldnt Boot Back Up
So I Tried Unplugging The Hard Drives Again and Still No Boot Tried My 1gb Ram From My Main pc and Still No Boot So I Setup The D-Bracket To See If That Could Find My Problem and It Says That My CPU Was Damaged or Not Installed Properly So i Took It Out and Put My AMD Barton 2500+ In and My 480watt Hiper PSU and It Said That CPU Was Damaged or Not Installed Properly So I Tried My 2400+ In My Other Motherboard What Is a MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR nForce 2 Ultra 400 and It Worked Fine Both CPU's Did.

Hi, I received the same message from the D-bracket, so mine wont boot never, If you get how it works from yours please explain what you did here, in order to get my board alive. Sorry, but I tried everything in the book with this mobo and nothing worked (KT6-LSR non delta version), and I feel that I can't help you out so much.

MSI KT6 Delta-FISR - D-Link diags "Boot attempt" failing

Hi,
I need some inspiration for this problem.
My sister's machine has been running fine (ish) for about 5 months. The sound has been "playing up" recently, sounding like it's stuttering. Anyway, that's not why I'm here.
At the moment, the machine won't boot up at all. I had it booted up today, and it was working OK, then it froze (sister complained that it froze yesterday as well).
On reboot, all I'm getting is the Xtreme main screen, then nothing else. The D-Link diags are showing 1 RED, 2,3,4 green which is
"Boot Attempt- This will set low stack and boot via INT 19h". It does nothing else.
I can't get into the BIOS, not can I boot from floppy. Doesn't matter if the HD is connected or not, it still fails at the same point.
I've stripped the machine back to the basics, so only have 1 CD-ROM, 1 HD, 1 stick of ram, floppy drive, graphics card.
I've swapped the graphics card .. same problem.
dropped the ram from 2 to 1 stick and switched sockets ... same problem
Swapped the PSU .... same problem
Is the Motherboard knackered ? Anyone got any more suggestions ??????
Thanks.

MSI KT6 Delta wont boot

My MSI KT6 Delta system no longer boots any further than the memory test? why? any ideas? any solutions other than replacing the motherboard etc.
some background:
motherboard: MSI KT6 Delta
CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2800
Memory: 1Gb branded
Graphics: Geforce FX 5200 AGP
PSU: Antec TrueBlue 480
Screen displays the memory test then a message relating to BIOS setup i.e. "Del: BIOS Setup" plus a new option i dont remember seeing previously namely "F10: Flash recovery" btw pressing 'del' doesn't help you cant get into the BIOS setup. Having cleared the CMOS via JBAT1 i now just get the MSI Welcome screen. If it helps the D-Bracket displays a red led top left.
its all a bit odd really, everything was fine on Friday night, but come Saturday morning its all gone pear shaped.
any help appreciate

OK. Well, the procesor is where I'd start troubleshooting.
Step one would be to unplug power cable and other cables on the back of the computer, wait a while ( you'll hear a faint zzipp ), and then move JBAT jumper in order to clear CMOS. That will force you into BIOS.
Eh, thought of something. BIOS will stop sometimes if it can't find a keyboard. And you say entering BIOS is impossible. Perhaps you have more than one problem? a) processor's BIOS settings are impossible, b) the keyboard hinders you from entering BIOS. However, the CMOS clearing should in either case be a good start.
Your problem very much reminds of what happened to me and others while playing with CoreCenter. I know you didn't but can't help saying so.

MSI KT6 Delta PROBLEM

First, my hardware :

I keep getting some strange BSOD. No matter what I do with the machine. Windows locks up completely and after about 1min, that BSOD comes and machine boots.
( http://www.saniainen.com/bs.jpg )
In normal usage, it comes about 1-3 times/day.
Mostly it comes when I copy some files from disk to other.
But it comes everytime when I try to decompress big (over 400mb) ZIP-files.
Everything did work with my old board, MSI KT4A. The problems begun when i changed the motherboard and added the Seagate S-ATA hdd.
I have ordered new memory, Kingston HyperX 512mb (333). Could it be memory-related or something with S-ATA ????
I have tried everything, latest BIOS, latest VIA4in1, memchecks etc...

I had the same problem on a differnt mobo and all I did to fix it was switch the IDE cables around on the devices.
?Give it a try?
It may be a jumper you forgot to change on the IDE devices.

Msi kt6 delta lsr temp problem?

i have just installed a msi kt6 delta lsr , but when i have ran the system a while the sys temp is around 40-42 c and the cpu temp is around 52c .
on my old mobo the temps never went above 35c for the cpu and 25c for the sys temp .
my specs for old mobo etc =
AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2600+
jetway v400db (kt400 chipset)
400w psu
ata133 80gb hd (maxtor)
512 ddr333
geforce fx5800 ultra
windows me (but same in win xp pro)
2 fans blowing air into case and 2 sucking air out
does anybody know a way to improve the temps please

Yippee! A ME user, like me! You know I guess MS support for W98 and ME has been prolonged til 2006? It has partly to do with Linux.
The temperature for the CPU is a little high, but not alarmingly so. Barton gets a little bit hotter on these boards, and I think it is the placing belovw the PSU that is the cause. The system temperature for you is no problem.
To get the warmth away from the CPU I suggest a fan placed in the case door/side, that sucks it out.
Perhaps you have not got such a case door? Then I suggest a quiet 80 mm fan on the back of the case as high as possible, again sucking air out in order to make a nice air flow. Another suggestion is to tie away cabling to the sides of the case as much as possible, power cables, IDE cables etc.

Problem: Kt6 Delta, Barton XP3000 (333)

Dear all,
first, sorry for my possibly bad english.
A few days ago i recieved following Hardware:
Mainboard: "MSI KT6 Delta"
CPU: "AMD ATHLON 3000 BOXED" (BARTON)
GRAKA: "MSI FX5600-VTDR128"
RAM: "1 x 512 MB Corsair XMS3500 (2-2-2-6 T1)"
HDs: "2 x 120 GB, Barracuda SATA V, Seagate
SATA150, 7200 rpm, 8 MB Cache"
My Powersupply is this one: Enermax 460 Watt EG-465AX-VE
This should be more than enough
(http://www.enermax.com.tw/eg365ax-ve-fca.htm)
What happend:
After each reboot (Reset Button or on/off) System freeze at RAID Bios. D-LEDS "Green-Green-Green-RED" (Atempting to Boot) to get the system up again i have to reset the Bios settings via jumper JBAT1. After that of course i had to reconfigure the Bios again.
So, after a while, i got WinXP installed.
Reboot initialized by the OS worked most of the Time so i had an unstable OS.
CPU temperature at 55 Degrees, Main at 35 Degrees.
After a while when i tried to continue the installation the Mainboard couldnt initialize anymore at all. The Diagnostic LEDs said "RED-RED-RED-RED" (CPU damaged or wrong installed). I waited a few minutes than i tried again - and everything works fine after clearing Bios again of course.
I tried 3 different Powersupplies until i got the Enermax with no differnce behaviour.
Temperature is LOW. 55/35 Degrees.
Bios Settings: I tried: Save and Custom (FSB166)
The end of the Story is that the current status is:
RED-RED-RED-RED -> since yesterday.
I dont think i ll get it up again - so which part is the damaged Hardware? Any Hints?
I hope i wasnt too confusing ,
yours,
fne

THNX for the hint. But my current Status is that the Board does not initialise. The Diagnostic LEDs are RED-RED-RED-RED which means an CPU error. I have already changed the CPU. Mounted and cooled as shown in the guide. At the moment i see no other solution as send my Mainboard back. :(
greetings,
fne

MSI KT6-Delta-SR + Athlon 2400+ (266) Problem

Hey Guys,
I have a problem with the MSI KT6-Delta-SR and Athlon 2400+ (266).
I've tried about 6 different boards and 6 different athlon 2400+ (266fsb) and what happens is randomly when you turn the computer on the processor is displayed as an athlon 2000+ or athlon 1700+ (using different ram and other components too).
I check in bios and the fsb is still set to 133 (which should be correct for a 266fsb athlonXP).
Running latest bios for the board (v. 5.5) and have tried previous bios revisions.
Anyone come across this? is this an incompatability with the KT6-Delta-SR and 266fsb athlons?
could it be a v.core issue? (what should the v.core b for athlon 2400+ (266)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Borjo jnc, aopen, gtr 350watt psu. it's not a psu problem.
yes 2 problems.
1. incorrect cpu recognition
and 2. random restart before xp loads.
after random restart cpu is recognised as either athlon 2000+ or athlon 1700+
this occurs sometimes before detecting hard drive, but mainly when second bar of windows xp pro loads (running xp pro +sp1 Plus latest updates and drivers. and regardless of what bios revision i'm using.
Tyco cpu id software says athlon2400+ and correct specs when booting properly. if i look at the top of the cpu is says athlon2400+

New MSI KT6 Delta - No Post

Hey everyone.....
I don't know if you guys remember but my last posts were largely about how much I hate computers....well the feeling is getting stronger.
I just got a new used MSI KT6 Delta mb and I hooked everything up but when I turn it on it just starts the fans and nothing else.
I can test the cpu and psu pretty easy 2marrow....but Im pretty sure this mb is good...unless the guy lied, and the reason I got this one is cause my last computer(old mb) would just sit at 39 minutes once it reached the graphical part of the xp install (and Im definite the cd was perfect)...so I'd assume everything else was working except my old mb......so......was I wrong...could have been something else
could it be something else this time?
I've reset the bios (which are supposely updated), I've tried my other graphics card and I'm out of ideas....
Im in a rush but I wanted to get some ideas asap.
I figure it can't be any other hardware besides my mb or gc but incase
I've got in it now - 128mb of generic PC2100
1800 XP Athlon
and my ti4400
nothing else....I also just got some cheap powersupply so maybe its causing the problems but I don't have any money....
Thanks for the help

HELP - MSI KT6 Delta-LSR

hi,
i have this motherboard: msi kt3 ultra2, and now im buying a new one, for use with my barton 2500+.
i prefer MSI KT6 Delta-LSR, but i dont know if can i change the multiplie like in Abit NF7-S (MaxFID™ Technology).
can i do this on MSI KT6 Delta-LSR ?
remember: in actual motherboard i can change the cpu ratio only to 12.5
i need to select what ratio i want. like 15x, 16x...
thanks and sorry for the english.

a its a via board not an nforce
b why change it if you want multipliers like that ,only reason to change is to run 200 fsb and you only get yto do that with lower multipliers

MSI KT6 Delta( Via KT600) works with mobiles???

Hello, just bought today a used cpu, it's a Athlon XP mobile 2000+ for my MSI KT6 DELTA...
It just won't boot... i turns on and off after a second or less...
Is this an unsupported cpu??
I've searched on teh msi page for cpu support, and I have my doubts...
Here's what's qritten on the CPU Core: AXMH2000FQQ3C
For waht i understand it's a Thoroughbred/barton based cpu, 45W, works at 1667MHz, with FSB Autodetect, deafault V, 1.45, max temp 100º C, 256kb cache, 266 MHz bus...
It's said on the main page of this board, that it's supports 400MHz FSB's...
HELP PLEASE!!!

HELLO??? IT SIMPLY DOESN'T RUNS!!!
you expecting help adopting that tone?
lose the sarcasm and the caps lock and you more likely to get advice
For what it is worth you are not making yourself clear.
For example:- Quote
It just won't boot... i turns on and off after a second or less...
Quote
and to turn it back on with the cpu, i have to clear cmos data...
Let's assume cpu is correctly greased and seated; when you power on get no response (psu fan, cpu fan, case fan, beeps?) unless you clear cmos and then once you do that you get 1 sec of activity before system powers down?
have you put old cpu back in and still works?
i guess you will know more when you test new cpu elsewhere

I have a problem MSI kt6 delta help!!!!!

Hi
I have a problem with my MOBO MSI Kt6 Delta, The problem is i cant use Windows XP with my MOBO.
My hardwares are: AMD XP2600 333mhz, DDR 512MB PC2700,Geforce4 128MB ti4400 (msi), CDRW TDK VeloCD 24x10x40, HD SEGATE 120 GB SATA.
When i installed Windows XP it couldnt start great (error with Video) for that reason i installed the Geforce drivers via Safe Mode. then i reset and work great only for 15 MIN (it shows blue screem error with some problem with video card) and for that reason i installed windows 98 and works great (we hate win98) lol. Pls help me

Try with another video card, if the problem is solutioned, review your video card. In The BIOS activate the Fast Write for AGP. I have a Geforce 4 MX 440 8x 64 MB and works very very fine.

[VIA] Problems with MSI KT6 Delta

MSI KT6 Delta
AMD XP 2000+
256 MB DDR 400
GeForce FX5200 128 MB DDR
I installed WinXP+SP1 and VIA4in1 v4.55 with NVIDIA 66.93 drivers. The screen fades out and in less than a second the picture shows up again.
Note: What should appear in device manager in section "System devices" after installing VIA4in1 v4.55?
I tried: changing video card, RAM memory, installing WinXP+SP2 (worse results!)
Thanks in advance

The system reports no errors nor conflicts in Device Manager window. This problem appeared when I did an upgrade from WinXP SP1 to SP2. I use Fedora Core on the same computer with NVIDIA drivers installed and there were no problems. I tried to change the monitor but it was the same. I think I managed to solve the problem by installing WinXP SP1 and an older NVIDIA driver (version 4.5.2.3) and VIA 4in1 pack 4.55. Everything runs smooth for now.
