MSI KT6 DELTA FIS2R problems

Well, I finally received my new KT6 DELTA FIS2R motherboard (I replaced my K7N2 Delta ILSR). After getting the wrong model and one with missing parts... I think I received a defective one! I tried to format and make a new installation of Win Xp. While it tried to make its first boot, the thing crashed and it would not reboot. I tried resetting the BIOS and then i got the message: CMOS corrupted or damaged. (The diagnostic led indicated the same thing). I experienced another problem, while I was using my computer, the CPU was running at 60C, in windows! (before reinstalling). Does anybody has the same problems with their KT6 boards... Does it need to be returned?
Thanks for the help,
Valkyr

From your post its not totally clear where you are at. Does the system still POST?
First of all, it is normal to get some kind of error message the first time after clearing cmos. Entering bios or hitting the key for "load defaults" will make that go away. If you do that and errors still happen in bios then you have more serious problems.
As far as the temp goes, redo the cpu installation making sure you totally remove all the old thermal pad/compound and use proper amount of new stuff.

MSI KT6-Delta FIS2R problem!?

I managed to install al but one aspect of the mobo. The integrated gigabit lan (Broadcom 5788) doesn't seem to be recognized. It looks like the PC just can't find the card, I don't get any 'found new hardware' messages and I can't find the card anywhere in my device manager.
Even when I try to ad a network adaptor manually (through new hardware) I can't seem to find it. (only lets me install a standard microsoft adaptor)
At first I had problems with the USB 2.0 but after service pack for Win Xp professional and a patch the USB 2.0 was installed properly but the drivers don't seem to be the problem in case of the gigabit lan. I have the drivers, I just don't have a way to install them.
Is there another patch I might need for the gigabit lan? Is it something in the bios I didn't see? (don't remember seeing anything in the bios referring to the integrated lan).
Hope you guys can help me.

I was wondering if MegaJos was able to fix the problem as I ran to this myself yesterday. The ethernet controller simply doesn't get recognised properly and I'm unable to install the driver. After several failed attempts I did some investigating with a diagnostic utility available the Broadcom web site and it turned out that the controller EEPROM data was/is corrupt. Now I could try rebuilding the data and flashing it, but since this is a brand new board I think I'll just take it back to the shop for a replacement.

Msi Kt6 Delta Fis2r

I have question about MSI KT6 DELTA Fis2r. Why in CoreCenter I don't have System Temp??? In CoreCenter I can see sys temp, but it's NB temp , and in the place of NB Temp is blank.

Hello!
I had the same kind of readings. System temps and NB temps are pretty much the same thing and I don't think there is one sensor for the NB and one for the system as a whole.
If I'm right, it is probably an installation/software problem. Have you tried reinstalling CoreCenter? Do you have any other monitoring program installed?
Found I do not trust CoreCenter and got rid of it. Can do what I need in BIOS.

MSI KT6-Delta FIS2R Broadcom doen't accept any driver

I've problem with MSI KT6-Delta FIS2R networkcard Broadcom doen't accept any driver, anyone help me.

I've got the same problem with the 4401 onboard lan of my Kt6 delta lsr.
I ran the dos-diag tool from the broadcom website and it reported an error
in the 3. test.
It reported an invalid mac-address (ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff) as well.
I can't get it to work in linux either.
Either the board is damaged or the bios is buggy (v3.4).
I would really appreciate if someone could tell me how to fix this.
Are there different verisons of the kt6?
I've got version 2.0.

MSI KT6 DELTA-FIS2R Bundled stuff

Hi!
I Bougth a MSI KT6 DELTA-FIS2R, and expected some more bundled stuff. Does anyone know whats supposed to be bundled? I need to know if my supplier is ripping me off.
I'm missing the D and S bracket, and some cables( only got 2 sata cables and 2 ide cables, but that doesnt matter much as I got all the cables I need).
Trond

Hi Trond look at the side of your outer box find the white sticker it will list what accessories you should be getting. If you need the brackets you need to yell at MSI well not really you need to contact them by e-mail I wouldn't try phoning them you'll never get through. What MSI doesn't tell you up front is that even though the motherboard is a top of the line expensive sob the accessories are still optional so what you could get is a bundle worthy of the SR or LSR bone stock model. What you should get are the RED rounded cable(s), the SATA cables the power adapters are optional so I hope you can get ahold of some or have a drive with a legacy power plug. My box contained two manuals one for sata one for the board, two floppies, the standard issue MSI driver cd, I/O bracket, cheapo black rounded cable, and the firewire bracket nothin' else when I first opened the box I was looking all over at all the nooks, and cranies for the other stuff, but alas it wasn't there. So long story short to determin what you get you have to look at that white sticker.

Need help from somebody with the "MSI KT6 Delta-FIS2R" motherboard

Hi everybody!
I really need some help from somebody with the MSI KT6 Delta-FIS2R motherboard (the one with onboard LAN, Audio, RAID, S-ATA and IEEE1394 firewire). You see. I've got this board myself but it's been destroyd. Some values for the onboard devices in my board has been overwritten so that windows no longer recognizes the onboard LAN and Audio controller anymore. I really need some help from somebody with this board.
I need to see what the values for the onboard devices should be. I hope someone can help me by sending me a repport from the Everest home edition: http://www.lavalys.com/products/overview.php?pid=1&lang=en
If anyone could do me this favour, I would be VERRY thankfull

My second KT6 Delta FIS2R, problems again..

I had FIS2R with couple of problems: I didn't start after pressing power on -button. All diagnostic leds were red (processor damaged). After pressing reset computer booted up nicely. This problem was from beginning, later (after half year(?) usage) came stability-problems. System became very unstable. Even when all memory and cpu-speeds were as low as possible, there were problems: Windows hanging, prime gave error etc.
So I got RMA-code and returned it. Board I got back was same model, same revision. It just worked fine, no problems at all. But now there is also that "won't start" -problem sometimes (with diagnostic leds turned red). I tried to run prime95 torture test after first time computer didn't start without preset and it was running errorfree. Now after about month later, prime95 ran only 1h 52min.
Anybody else having same problems?
Is there many revisions of that board, perhaps newer?
System:
KT6 Delta FIS2R
XP 2500+
512Mb M-TEC 400MHz
Club 3D Radeon 8500
360W PSU
Samsung SATA-Drive

I don't think there is a problem with hard disks, same problem was with Seagate only and with Samsung only. Now with this new board, these hangings on startup happens so randomly, that I'm willing to believe that my PSU can't give enough power.
Those stability issues were probably caused overheated NorthBridge. It was too hot to touch. I changed bigger fan to CPU -heatsink and now it also blows to NB and it's much cooler. Prime95 has been running 12 hours no with no errors. Gotta see and hope it runs errorfree for next 12 hours too.
Maybe I was just scared because last FIS2R became so unstable that even if I put all setting as (s)low as possible, it wouldn't work.
Windows is just fine, I made fresh install couple of week ago and I don't have net at home so it should be quite clean..
Thank's to all of you, at least I know now to try replace PSU if there is problems..

MSI KT6 Delta series problem!! :(

Hi there!
Im new to the forums so hello to everybody
Ok i have a problem with my new motherboard.
I bought the MSI KT6 Delta SLR i think ...
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=474
Ok before i bought this motherboard i used to have a ABIT KT7 Raid and it all worked well!
But i wanted a new 1 so i bought the MSI mobo.
The setup in my case didnt change at all i only replaced the motherboard.
I started it up and it couldnt find the HD's on IDE1 ...But it did find the CDroms , dvd etc on IDE2.
I changed it around so i had the HD's on IDE2 and CDROM's on IDE2 ...but it didnt startup after that ...
I changed them back and again it only found the CDrom's .
I thought hmz maybe i broke something who knows so i changed back to the old mother board and it worked well again
So it had to be the motherboard i thought ...so i went back ...got a new 1 same brand / type etc.
Again i did the same but now AGAIN it didnt find the HD's on IDE1 ...but it DID find the HD's on IDE2 .....
So now im stuck with only 1 HD and a dvd burner
What could be the problem ?
I tried everything....from " master/slave " and only 1 HD or only 2 HD's etc but then it either cant find the disks or it wont startup at all ....
Specs :
Maxtor 80g / WDC 40 g Harddisks
MSI KT6 Delta with sata raid etc ( check link )
Audigy2
Radeon9500
Pinnacle TV card
1024 ddr 400 mem ( in usersguide it says 4 banks..but i only have 3 .. ? )
Can someone plz help me ? going to work will check it later this evening. thxxx

are they on an 80 wire ide lead blue end in the board
black in master grey in the slave
disable the sata in bios as in here as your not using it

MSI KT6 Delta-FIS2R Via KT600

Does anyone own this board? If so, how is it?
I'm currently having problems with my MSI nForce2 board that I just bought, I am debating returning it and getting this KT600 version, do you think that would be worth my hassle? I've heard some mixed reviews on the KT600, some saying it's faster, some slower, but all they it's very stable. My current nForce2 version loses its video from time to time after a restart, also there is some times my mouse dies on my current board. These problem didn't happen with my old board, so it isn't the components.
I just don't know what to do... ;(

This doesn't sound right to me, if you are using 166FSB CPU's you MUST use PC-2700 ram (or above).
Give it a shot with a PC-2700 stick and see if it solves your problems.
Nforce2 boards let you run the ram slower then the CPU FSB.
I know the via KT400 had a hard time doing this. Does the KT600 have the same troubles? If I got this board would I have to get new memory anyway? Does the KT600 let me run the memory slower then the FSB?
I had a old Chaintech Nforce2 board, and it had no troubles at all with the problem I mentioned B4.

KT6-Delta FIS2R problems

i just finished building this computer in late january and i've reformatted 5 times due to corrupt OS (with the crashing and constant reboots). the onboard lan dies and requires me to reboot. i get random reboots if i leave the computer on for more than 4 hours. i disabled all but 2 USB ports, disabled both serial ports and printer ports, and also disabled the IEEE1394. i also disabled APCI. everything else (incl. ram & cpu) are an auto. i've also tried using the "high performance" setting and cannot get higher than 205FSB. is there something i missed? can you offer me any tips? any help is appreciated.
edit: @200FSB - 42C idle 45C load

You are definately entitled to a refund or replacement if the stick is defective, which it appears to be. I do not know how difficult it is to deal with newegg.com on these matters, but I wish the best of luck in obtaining speedy service. They want you to send both sticks back for replacement, or just the one you suspect. Let's just hope they don't keep you without your rig for long.

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?

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.

Changed from K7N to KT6 Delta-FIS2R

Well, it took some time, but I finally got a motherboard in exange from my K7N2-Delta ILSR. I picked KT6-Delta FIS2R. Since I received that board, I had a few annoying problems. First, The CPU temp was around 60C in windows! Then, when I formatted the hard drive to install XP again, it crashed and would not even restart. I reseted the BIOS and I had a message telling me the CMOS was damaged or corrupted !?! Did anybody had the same problems with this board? Is it just defective and need to be returned ?
Here are my specs:
CPU: AMD XP 3000+
MOBO: MSI KT6 Delta FIS2R
Video: MSI GF FX 5900 TD128 :D
Sound: Onboard sound
Memory: Crucial, 2X512K (Non dual channel)
Operating sys: Windows XP Home
(By the way, is it possible to see the CPU frequency in the AMI Bios? I can only find FSB frequency?)
Thanks for the help,
Valkyr

You've done it exactly as described in the documentation (Power off - jumper to 'clear' position - jumper back to normal position - power on)?

KT6 Delta FIS2R BIOS stopped detecting IDE1 & 2 optical drives

I am working on a new system that has developed an unusual (to me) problem. The system is partially built and consists to date of the following:
1. Chieftec MA-01BND case with Super-Flower TTGI TT-520SS (520 Watt) power supply.
2. MSI KT6 Delta FIS2R motherboard with an AMD XP2600 CPU and one stick of Corsair CMX512-2700C2 RAM.
3. Two Mitsumi MTM-1.44BL floppy drives.
4. Two Maxtor 6Y080MO HDD’s connected to SATA 1 and SATA 2, not in RAID.
5. Sony DDU1621BK DVD/CD ROM mastered on IDE1.
6. Sony DWU10A-B2 DVD/CD RW 1 mastered on IDE2.
7. Asus V9520 VS AGP video card.
8. Windows 98SE installed on HDD1.
Everything was operating properly, and I was installing software and drivers for peripherals, when the following problem appeared.
At boot-up, the MB logo pops right up; but then, it takes approximately 80 seconds for the BIOS to initiate. Boot-up then proceeds as normally, and Windows 98SE initiates normally. However, neither optical drive appears in Program Manager; and, pushing the “open” button on either drive fails to open the tray.
After the BIOS initiates, the usual message directing one to press the “DEL” key for access to BIOS Setup never appears. However, if the “DEL” key is held down anyway, the system will enter Setup. Note that there is also a delay of approximately 80 seconds for this to initiate.
Once into Setup, the “Standard CMOS Features” page indicates no IDE devices. Resetting the detections to “Auto” across the board makes no difference. Resetting the CMOS via the “Clear CMOS Jumper” and via removing the CMOS battery changes nothing except that the CMOS returns to the default settings, and the BIOS still fails to detect the optical drives.
Since SATA1 and SATA2 are detected and operating, I believe that the chipset is OK because they are served by the same Drive Station on the chipset as IDE1 and IDE2 which aren’t detected and operating. I also consider damage to the motherboard itself to be an unlikely cause because that can’t account for all of the systems, either. I suspect the BIOS because of the following:
1. The BIOS is so slow to initiate, as is the entrance into setup.
2. The direction to press the “DEL” key for access to BIOS Setup never appears.
3. The BIOS has stopped detecting the drives on IDE1 and IDE2.
4. All of these functions that take place prior to chipset initiation.
Does anyone know what happened and what needs to be done to return the BIOS to normal operation? Or, is this a board failure, after all?

OK, what is BIOS eventually booting from? Is your SATA working?
What appears to be happenning is that the BIOS times out while trying to detect the IDE's (in this case, optical drives) and then just goes ahead and boots. The SATA's are working fine, as is Windows, once I wait out the time out for the BIOS. Except, of course, Windows also can't see and doesn't indicate in Program Manager the opticals that the BIOS couldn't find, which makes sense. The odd thing in this scenario is that, once the BIOS times out and goes on, it does not provide the customary message to hit "DEL" to enter Setup (but holding down "DEL" when the BIOS procedes will take me to Setup anyway!
I talked to eSupport today, and the techie says it's a BIOS problem that their update will resolve. Well, of course it WILL; they sell updates (duhhh). Being the trusting soul I am, I'd like some independent confirmation. I've posted this on 4 forums hoping to catch someone who has seen this happen before, in addition to contacting eSupport (Amibios's update shop) and MSI Support.
MSI's Support Department is, of course, silent, as usual.
