MSI Neo2 nforce3 -- can't get USB 2.0.

Hi guys
be gentle with me, Im a newbie.
Have just had my chip, memory and board replaced under warranty and have MSI Neo2 nforce3 with 3200+ and 1gb ddr. I have done all my windows updates, service packs, drivers from MSI et al and after hooking up my Maxtor One Touch am informed that it is working at reduced speeds as no high speed usb port is installed. I thought all this was done under the windows updates. I have tried removing the USB drivers and allowing windows to find its own drivers but no luck.
Are there any issues with this board that I should know about with USB 2.0.
I have also updated the board BIOS and can no longer see the setting to select as below, its no longer there, simply and enable disable switch.
OnChip USB
This setting allows you to enable/disable the onboard USB controller. Selecting
[V1.1+V2.0] enables the system to support both USB 1.1 and 2.0 spec. Setting
options: [Disabled], [V1.1], [V1.1+V2.0].
Any thoughts, much appreciated.
 

Was quite easy to do. Go along to www.bootdisk.com and make a Windows ME bootdisk (with CDROM support).
Then go to MSI and download BIOS (zip file) 1.9 for the motherboard. There are 4 files in the zip file including full instructions and what to type. Take note, there are special instructions there for xp users using the NTFS file system. You will end up with 2 floppy disks.
NB Instructions tell you to copy both files to the ramdrive. I simply copied mine to C:\ and it all worked out well.
Hope this helps.

  • Can't get usb fax modem to work

    I have one of those small white apple phone/fax usb connectors, and I am trying to send a fax of a word doc but I can't get the process to work.
    It reports that there is no dial tone yet it is connected correctly from the computer to my phone line.
    I recall being able to do this a couple of years ago, but now I can't figure it out.
    Could there be a compatibility problem with the OS?
    I used it before with Tiger and now I am on Snow Leopard.
    Is there some setup that I need to do before using it?
    When I plug it in, it reports that there is a new network interface detected called external modem and it needs to be set up in network preferences.
    In the setup, it asks for a phone number an account name and a password, but which account is it referring to? My computer, my ISP, my network router?
    It then disconnects and reports that there is no dial tone and to try connecting the phone line again, but it is connected and is working.
    Thanks for any advice

    Thanks.
    It does appear correctly, and everything seems ok, but it doesn't work.
    I've been reading around, and apparently the apple usb fax modem doesn't work with digital phone lines.
    The last time I used it, in 2007-08, we had an analogue phone line but now we have a digital line as part of the Virgin media phone, cable and broadband service.
    Unless someone has had positive results getting it to connect to a digital phone line, I have to conclude, sadly, that it is now obsolete hardware.
    I can't even find a comparable item on the apple store website anymore, so they must know that it doesn't work with digital phone lines and stopped selling it.

  • T43p 2668 can't get USB driversH

    I recently bought a used T43p with a clean blank hard drive. I installed a new version of XP Home and was advised to come to this site to download all the drivers. The computer works fine but I can't get any network connections to work at all.  I am trying to use TetherBerry software with my BlackBerry 8330 (which works fine with my desktop Dell with no problems) but I can't get any network connections to work on the IBM lenovo and when I start the TetherBerry app it tells me I have pointer problems and no USB connection is recognized for it.  Anyone have any ideas?  I also downloaded and installed .net Framework 3.0 from Microsoft and then reinstalled all of the drivers from this site as well.  Still nothing.  HELP !!

    This is the chipset driver that should solve the USB problem IF it is a software issue, please follow the instructions on the download page:

    Good luck and keep us posted...

  • Can't get USB installer to boot on Thinkpad S431

    Just got a refurbished laptop, and can't figure out how to get the USB installer to boot correctly.  I've tried EFI only, EFI+compatibility, CSM disabled/enabled etc.  I can select the USB drive and it gets to the Arch menu, then when I select the first option to start the installer it reads the USB for a few seconds then just sits at a black screen.  Specs: Thinkpad S431, Core i5-3337U, Intel 4000.  I've tried several Arch isos, including 7/14 and 5/14.  The USB drive will boot/install in my desktop machine with no problems. 
    Thanks for any help

    Since it is Intel graphics, it might have been an early KMS issue.  That is, there is no possible way to get early KMS going from the installer.  In this case, you would just need to use 'nomodeset' on the kernel command line.  If you were able to use the UEFI shell, then you were probably seeing the gummiboot boot manager.  So according to this page, you need to hit 'e' to edit the kernel command line.

  • Intel Core Duo - can't get USB modems to work

    Hi, I have a broadband account with Tiscali who have now provided me with two USB DSL modems (Speedtouch 330 & Sagem 800) but I still can't get either to work. (My system is the 20" Imac Intel Core Duo)
    I've installed latest OS X (10.4.6), tried drivers from Tiscali website and modem manufacturer's but still nothing (system says modem is not connected - both green lights stay on on Sagem, one red on speedtouch).
    If anyone can offer advice, or if anyone has an alternative that's working for them I'd much appretiate the advice.
    Thank you
    Lee

    Solution is stated as an ADSL Router - will this be compatible with Tiscali my internet broadband supplier?
    Thanks
    An ADSL router is compatible with all UK ADSL isp's.
    Don't use a d-link modem unless you already own a standard router. I would suggest you get an ADSL router. An ADSL router is a modem and router combined.
    The netgear box that was already suggested in this thread can be source for about £60 if you shop around and is a doddle to setup.
    otherwise you can find cheap adsl routers at http://www.solwise.co.uk from Hull.

  • MSI 870-G45 - Can't get into BIOS

    So, just built myself a new pc.
    It posts, and I have some output on the screen upon boot up, like I see that its detecting my sata hd/dvd drive and everything. Like the topic name says, I can't get into the BIOS.  When it posts, its detecting my keyboard and everything, but it simply hangs at the post screen and I cannot get into the BIOS at all for whatever reason that is beyond me.  I've tried 2 keyboards, one ps/2 and a usb keyboard, nothing on either (the usb is one I went to wal-mart and got today as I guessed the ps/2 wasn't working correctly or whatever).
    Tried clearing CMOS (taking out the battery, resetting the jumper and everything).  Still got nothing.
    Heres a link to a pic of what output I do have. http://img858.imageshack.us/i/img20110313152042.jpg/ (sorry, don't know how to embed pics into a forum board, not that familiar)

    Quote from: littlemanx23 on 14-March-11, 13:10:00
    I mean, I'm using a usb keyboard.  Should I try a PS/2?  I mean I've tried clearing the CMOS a handful of times to no avail, nothing.  It just simply hangs at that screen and says CMOS settings are wrong.
    I thought you said you'd already tried a PS/2 keyboard and it still hangs?

  • MSI P35 Neo2-Fr -- can't get onboard audio device to appear in XP

    I've just installed XP sp3 onto my new mobo (MSI P35 Neo2-Fr).
    Attached is Q6600 core2 quad processor, 2GB memory (DDR2), ATI HD4850 gfx card. I haven't changed the bios much at all or overclocked anything yet.
    All seems fine *except* that I can't windows XP to see that there's an onboard audio device.
    (It is enabled in the bios btw.) I've tried installing the high def audio driver on the CD from mobo box, and also downloaded the latest from the MSI site. I uninstall the driver and reboot before trying to reinstall it again btw.
    The audio driver installer used to say there was a problem installing the driver, but it doesn't any more. After installing it and rebooting, XP control panel -> Audio devices says there are no audio devices.
    Also, I notice that there should be an extra audio item in the XP control panel (according to mobo manual), but this hasn't appeared.
    In XP's system hardware list there are no sound devices under Sound, but there are two unknown PCI devices (with yellow question marks next to them).
    Any suggestions?

    Had same issue with ATI card installed.
    Go to Microsoft update and choose custom
    You should see a list with hardware updates..........
    After that, all will be fine
    Hi there
    Thanks for your reply. I went to MS updates, didn't see any in custom about hardware (apart from updated ethernet driver). Installed all updates anyway. And the problem remains...

  • Help! I can't get USB to work

    Ok at first I was having problems with running any 3d games.  I still have this problem.  What it does is it totally freezes the system during the middle of play at random spots.  Then I decided what the heck I guess I need to get all the new drivers and stuff.  So I got everything installed from the Live Update 2 except for the Bios update and the USB update.  My OS is Windows XP so I don't have any choice but getting that USB update via LU2.  So I tried installing that update and during the install when it tries to find an install wizard for the USB it freezes the machine and disables all usb divices.  No usb devices work after I did this install.I've tried installing it 4 times.  I get the same result each time.  I don't care how I can do it I just want my usb back up.  Can somebody help me?
    Oh and I think that the 3d game prob is that I need to get an actual AGP card so that it doesn't overheat the graphics chip and perhaps a better heatsync for the Pentium 4 2.26 Ghz chip.

    Try this  driver, it is from intel.
    The intel VGA integrated in the 845G chipset is known to be less than perfict (or actually very poor).
    There was an article about how it has incompatabilities with games.
    Even a Gf2 MX200 is stronger than it so practicly any card you would but is stronger.

  • Can't get USB drive to work in USB port on airport extreme

    I just recently purchased a MacBook Pro and a airport extreme 110/100/1000. My first apple computer. I wanted to use the airport to connect a WD My Book hard drive and my printer so that the Mac and my windows computers would be able to access them.
    As many have reported I had trouble making it work. I could not get the Mac to access the hard drive thru the airport although it would when hook up directly.
    First Apple needs to say very clearly that the drive must be formatted FAT32. There is some disagreement whether the drive can be partitioned.
    Anyway after spending hours trying to use my hard drive I started searching the internet. I found a program that could be downloaded on the WD website that would reformat the hard drive back to FAT32 from NTFS very quickly. After doing so, the hard drive mounted and worked perfectly and had over 232GB available (not 32 like it would be if formatted on a older Windows computer.
    The drive must be FAT32 and will definitely work if not partitioned.
    Apple really needs to have much better documentation on the whole process, especially for those like me who are PC guys and are not familiar with the terminology. Hope this helps.

    I am new at this. I guess I did not want to ask a question but rather to offer an answer.

  • Can't get USB powered external speakers to work...

    I'm using Windows XP Pro, and for some reason, iTunes won't play through a pair of Logitech V-20 portable USB-powered speakers. I've checked all the settings I can think of, and everything seems to be set okay. If I use WMP, the sound goes through the speakers....and if I generate a computer sound (beep) through iTunes, it plays through the speakers. However, iTunes music is only playing through the laptop speakers. In fact, these speakers have a play/pause button that communicates with iTunes....and also previous track/next track buttons that also work with iTunes. If I plug different speakers into the headphone port, they work fine....and I didn't have this problem on a previous XP Pro computer when using iTunes (although I think it was an earlier version). I'm running the latest version of iTunes. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem?

  • How can I get USB camcorder MPEG2 files into iMovie

    I have a G4. The version of iMovie that will allow a direct connect of my new Panasonic 60 GB camcorder won't work on my older mac. Does anyone know of a way that I can get the MPEG2 files (they don't look like MPEG2 files) off of the hard drive of my camcorder so that I can get them into iMovie. I am able to mount the camera's hard drive and can see all the files. They have .mod and .moi extensions on them.

    First you need the MPEG-2 Playback Component from Apple (19,99$). Then download the MPEG-Streamclip from the internet.
    Copy the mod-files at your Mac (you don't need the moi). Open Mpeg-Streamclip and drag the mod's in the application. Convert all files to dv.
    Sorry for the bad english.

  • I am having trouble updating Itunes saying that it can't find the Itunes.msi folder how can I get it make a path for it.

    I am having problems updating Itunes and it is saying that it cannot find this itunes.msi folder when I even redownloaded the installing package from the internet cause it could not find it after trying to update it from the program itself. What do I do in order for it to update or download the updated version of Itunes??

    Hi, HeWhoIsNtNmd.
    Thank you for the question.  To resolve this I would recommend to uninstall iTunes and all of it's components.  As you are receiving the iTunes.msi error, see the steps in the first article below. 
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" alert when removing Apple software in Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3704
    You will only need to process the above mentioned steps when uninstalling or updating a program and receive the .msi error. 
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    Once you have completely uninstalled all components, download iTunes and reinstall.

  • MSI GE70 2OE Can't get into bios after update

    Hello
    I had some problems with the intel turbo boost not working properly so I updated my bios with the new version from 2013-09-03. After this update the intel turbo boost works fine but since I can't access my bios anymore. Does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks

    Problem solved. It seems that after the update you have less time to press delete to enter the bios.

  • Neo2 nforce3 dma problem

    hello,
    ive got a problem with an msi neo2 nforce3 ultra board. Ive got a problem with enabling dma (i think). I thought the problem was related to the nforce3 pata drivers, so i have replaced them with the generic windows drivers but my problem remains. Device manager reports that dma is enabled on my optical drivers, but im not convinced: if i use the xp system information utility dma is only reported as enabled on the floppy drive controller (channel2) and the direct memory access controller (channel4).  Also, i have a soundblaster audigy zs, which when i run its diagnostics utility reports that dma is not enabled. I also have a utility called dmacheck which reorts that no ide/atapi devices detected.
    My dvd playback (pre-pressed) is very slow, i have to set the sound to 2 speaker stereo to get the picture not to stutter(powedvd), and accessing data disks using the opticals is also very slow.
    Also, i have no pci bus mastering driver listed under ide/ata/atapi controllers in device manager. I thought this may be part of my problem, but i have hunted high and low for this driver for the nforce3 ultra with no luck: should i have this driver installed? if so where can i get it?
    the dma problem started when i flashed the firmware on my sony optical, but i have verified the flash is fine and that the drive is not the problem (i have obtained an identicle sony dvd drive and have the same problem).
    Any help would be much appreciated. Ive been stuck on this one for a while now!
    bobil

    bobil,
    I would start by removing the nVidia Drivers and then installing the latest nVidia nForce Drivers. It could be you have a bad install of the Drivers.
    Take Care,
    Richard

  • Can't attach USB devices in Windows XP Mode

    I am still trying to set up my new Probook G1 450.  It is presently in the original Win 7 Pro 64-bit OS.
    I am trying to use Windows XP Mode.  I can set up XP Mode, but I can't get USB access under it. But for me, the whole point of getting XP Mode is to be able to run two key programs which require USB access. The USB devices have been successfully installed in Win 7 (it's the programs that require XP Mode).
    I have tried with VMLiteXPMode, Virtual Box, and finally with Windows Virtual PC. The results are about the same. I am presently trying Windox Virtual PC. When I access the USB button on the top of the XP Mode box, there is a list of all the USB devices. This looks like things are fine. All the devices are there. Hooray. Oops, too soon! It still doesn't work. One still has to "attach" the USB device, by clicking its listing under USB devices. When I do this, I get the following error message:
    "Could not attach the USB device. You can attach the USB to a different USB port or restart the virtual machine and try again."
    Yes, I can and have done all those things, and  I get the same error message again and again and again. This is true for all USB devices (except the USB mouse, which works perfectly and automatically in XP mode and is *not* listed under USB):
    * Epson Perfection scanner 
    * HP Laserject printer
    * the computer's own HP HD Webcam,
    and
    * the computer's own Wireless/Bluetooth Device
    For example, the scanner and printer will work well in the host machine, where I have installed them, but they can't be "attached" in XP Mode.
    Notes:
    * I have enabled "integration features"
    * I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting the devices.
    * If I try to install the printer in XP Mode, I can't do that, because this requires, at some point, the printer being plugged in to the USB. And I get the above error message when I try to attach it.
    Also I have already had to deal with one driver issue (it came with the wrong driver for wireless; the right driver wasn't on the HP support page and couldn't be obtained by the computer's own "update' function),  but when I finally discovered the right driver, wireless worked flawlessly
    There is yet another possible driver issue, but I'll leave that for another topic later. One thing at a time.
