MSI NF750-G55 connecting the power button? noob question i know

just bought my computer, AMD Phenom II x4 965 BE and MSI NF750-G55 motherboard.
bought a nice cooler master case and i just need a little help setting up the power button and LEDs.
i understand everything in the manual that came with the motherboard completely i just need to know how to identify which cables from my case should be positive or negative? im assuming that if a little arrow is pointing to the connector wire that it's positive?
any help is greatly appreciated, hate to fry my board first day out of the box...

For power & reset switches it doesn't matter which way you plug them in as long as you plug them in at the right place. They are simple momentary contact switches and polarity doesn't matter for them. As far as the LED's go if they are plugged into the right place they either light or they will not. If they don't light then simply swap (reverse) the connection and they should work. Just go by what the manual shows for the where part of plugging them in. You are not likely to fry anything.

My kid just got an iPod 5th gen (today from Santa) and it won't power up or charge. The only response is when I connect the USB and press the power button or front button the Battery appears with red line and lightning symbol. No other response at all.

Sorry about the long title.....its my first post.
My kid just got a brand new iPod 5th generation (today from Santa) and it won't power up or charge. The only response is when I connect the USB and press the power button or front button the Battery appears with red line on left and lightning symbol below. There is no other response at all no matter what I do, including holding both buttons down for extended period. My other kid got one and it works perfectly.....I have interchanged usb cables ports etc. but still no response....I would really appreciate any help.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you have a hardware problem with the iPod. This is because as you said the same cable works with another iPod.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Also, i have a f'ew cracks in my screen for a while now and it was running smoothly up until saturday when i sat on it applying large amounts of pressure to the phone screen. Is there a way i can fix this myself without having to recover my phone to factory settings or wasting 50 bucks to get it fixed??

My bluetooth keyboard won't stay connected. I have to hold the power button to type

wireless keyboard says connected then connection lost. All I did was replace the batteries when the old ones died. Now I have to hold the power button just to type. Seems like a hardware problem not preferences. Any clues?

Hello:
Try resetting the PRAM and SMC.
Then delete a preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restart.

When booting up, the bluetooth connects and then disconnects with my trackpad 3 or 4 times then i get a gray cover over the desktop that drops from top to bottom then a window that tells me to use the power button to do a forced shutdown.

New computer MSI NF750-G55

Hello All,
Just received a new shipment and the computer is not passing POST, Details as follows...
(oops) AMD Phenom II x6 1090T
MSI NF750-G55 BIOS default no software installed yet...
GSkill 4x4GB DDR3 1333
CoolMax 500w +3.3 30A +12v1 18A +12v2 16A -12v 1A 12v 380W
On Board Video
Kingston 128gb SSD and Sony Sata DVD R/W
Getting post to the Checking vRam and it freezes, no input after that recognized. Computer is new, I have tried with just 1 dimm installed (yes in the correct spot) and also with only the CPU, PSU, and keyboard connected. All fail at that point. Post code 008F reads at that point.
Any additional info will be given at request.

Check the BIOS chip, as you need at least BIOS 7578v13 for that CPU.
If the board doesn't have that version, you will need a supported CPU to flash it.
It may also be the memory you use, try 1 el-cheapo stick and see if it posts.
And last, if you PSU is this one:

That piece of junk will not power your system, it's old rubbish.

Msi nf750-g55 System Randomly Shutting down.

Hello everyone, Back in April of this year I built a system through newegg with the following Specs:
Motherboard: MSI NF750-G55
Processor: AMD Phenom II x6 1090t (with stock heatsink)
RAM: Corsair x4 2GB DDR3 1333
Power supply: Cougar 700W Sli ready
Graphic Configuration: two MSI Geforce 460 Cyclone GTXs running in SLI
Hard drives: 1 WD 300GB VolociRapter and a WD 500GB mybook removed out of its external
Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
Not long after I built the system (before I even thought of overclocking it) I began having a serious yet vague issue: It would shut down randomly. And I mean very randomly. Sometimes it occurs once every couple of hours, and other times it doesn't happen for more then a week. It doesn't seem to matter what I am doing on the system either. I could be playing games, or just listening to music and it will still happen, so I can't imagine its related to load. Its been a long, painstaking process to try and fix. I ruled out some of the parts it could be though. I have replaced the Power Supply with a higher quality model and an extra 50 watts, checked the temps on the system for a number of weeks while idle and under load (all looking cool except MCP), ran memtest86 successfully for a full 24 hour with no issues, as well as re installed windows 7 once. Issue still occurs.
To be perfectly honest I am not really sure where to go from here. I purchased all my parts through newegg, so I am confident I could RMA the component that is experiencing failures if that is the case, but there in lies the problem: I am not sure which one to RMA! I don't have a means to swap out parts, as no one i know has a system with a similar configuration as me.
I am suspicious of the Motherboard along with the processor, which is why I am posting in these forums...
Any ideas or suggestions as to how I could either fix the problem through configuration or pinpoint which hardware component is causing these random shutdowns would be much appreciated! I really don't want to run the risk of damaging any of the other components...

Swapped out my first 460 with my other one after 2 consecutive shut downs in 1 hour... haven't been around to continue working on it until recently, but atleast its looking like it isn't my cards.

it doesn't matter, software voltage measure isn't accurate you can't trust them.
If you want to check voltages [use multimeter],
or best test with another well known working and powerfull enough quality and single rail PSU
I got a question, why would single rail or multi rail make a difference? I hear the only reason they split the rails is for protection... and if both my PSUs are SLI ready, why are my components drawing too many amps?
So I guess its time to shell out another 100 - 150 bucks on a PSU... Can't say I'm thrilled. Looking for one with a single 12v rail. My question is this, would this single rail power supply meet my needs?

And if not can you or anyone make a recommendation(s)? Thanks!

As for the AMD standard paste, sorry but I remove that instantly and add my own itty-bitty-tiny drop of grease and smear it so thin you hardly see it.
Too much paste can cause this too, and yes I consider the AMD amount too much.
Heck without paste it will do a better job then the AMD amount, the CPU has a heat-spreader and doesn't need that much.
But, it could also be your heat-spreader is broken, as such CPU-temp-readings will reveal that.
Well, so far I've seen no problems with temps. The shutdowns don't seem to indicate that heat is a problem too. I can start the system immediately after a shutdown, it doesn't matter what I am doing on the system to make the shutdown occur, and my peripheral devices are sometimes still powered after a shutdown (such as caps lock on the keyboard).
Also, hardware monitor shows it idling at almost room temperature in the post above lol. Under load I think about 38 - 40c from what I remember seeing. I'll post a load temps pic after a few hours of torture testing tomorrow.
Also, I may have only personally built one other computer from scratch, but I have done quite a bit of troubleshooting, as well as assisted with other people's builds. Now I am not calling myself an expert by any means, but all that being said I have yet to come across or even hear of a CPU heat related problem where there was too much thermal paste on a stock heat sink... lol learn something everyday.

MSI NF750-G55 Hangs

Ok, shooting in the dark here. I just purchased the MSI NF750-G55 from Newegg along with these components:
CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800), sticks in slots 1,2
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2GHz Socket AM3 125W Six-Core Desktop Processor (including fan)
XFX HD-485X-ZNFC Radeon HD 4850 1GB 256-bit DDR3
Antec NEO ECO 400C 400W Continuous Power ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply
The system hangs randomly. Sometimes with a BSOD (that disappears too fast to read), sometimes the screen just freezes requiring a hard reboot. Totally random, I can play Witcher II for hours just fine without and incident, or I can mess around with Solitaire and have it freeze 10 minutes in. I cannot find a pattern to it. Nothing in the Windows Event Logs other than the un-expected shutdown messages.
I have not messed around with the BIOS settings or played around with any overclocking functions, everything is stock/default.
I have run Memtest86, did not find nothing or hang the system. (let it run overnight)
Windows 7 64 Professional, latest drivers from MSI and ATI (for the video card).
Any suggestions as to where/how to start to troubleshoot this?

Umm isn't "Vengeance" memory for use with icore/Sandybridge systems?
I agree psu but then changed to ram issues when read the memory you're attempting to use with that system.
I'm not seeing any Vengeance on the list for your board, XMS yea but not Vengeance unless I missed it.
Not saying no way it can work but might require tweaking to do so.
Have you run memtest at all?
You really should be using the Corsair Dominator GT memory with your Phenom II see>http://www.corsair.com/vengeance-8gb-dual-channel-ddr3-memory-kit-cmz8gx3m2a1600c9.html click on the FAQs & Support link on the page.
Might RMA exchange it with newegg or if not there talk to "Ram guy" over at Corsairs support site, he'd surly help you out if you asked I'd think.
You might in the end get the Vengeance to work yea, if its the root cause of the issues you have now, tweaking it some to get it working right, might not be optimal to do so regardless.
Any way I'd run memtest if you haven't, see what that tells ya first.

MSI NF750-G55 with AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition bundle from NewEgg

I purchased this CPU/Mobo bundle from NewEgg recently and am having a hard time getting anything to work. Here are the components I am using:
MSI NF750-G55 mobo
AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition CPU
2x4Gb GSkill F3-10666CL9D-8GBSR DDRIII ram
EVGA GeForce GTX550 Ti SLI ready graphics board
ZUMAX X3 Series ATX 650Watt power supply
NZXT M59 ATX Mid tower case
Now to the problem - no POST
I have double checked the CPU seating and installation and its correct, have tried both on board video as well as the GeForce, and no signal to the monitor. The 4 blue ASP power led's do light up, and the CPU fan spins, but only for a few seconds. Then it shuts off, then restarts, and keeps cycling like this. Have tried with no memory installed, same issue. I have seen several entries on forums for no POST on this mobo. Can anyone help me here? Am I looking at a bad mobo or what? Currently have it out of the case on a non conductive surface.

NF750-G55 won't power up, almost no APS LEDs activity

Hi there,
Just purchased a brand-new NF750-G55 mobo and a Phenom II X3 720.
Installed mobo, cpu, stock heatsink and thermal compound, ram, psu and monitor only. Everything is powering up properly, shutting down, plugging everything in the case, with drives, gfx card... Power-on the computer with no problem, start a Win7 installation, and I leave when Windows disk is copying data.
When I come back a half an hour later, the computer is off. Pushing the on/off button leads to the power led to blink every second without stopping until I unplug the power cable.
Checking mobo, when I push the power-on button, the 1st of the 4 APS LEDs lights blue for half a sec and instantly powers off. Then nothing will even happen, even when pushing the power button again. Have to power off/unplug the psu and power back on to see the same thing happening.
Switched ram, psu, removed everything but cpu and heatsink (actually removed the cpu, cleaned it, applied thermal compount again...)...and ultimately, removed mobo from the case, nothing will work. The power button on the mobo lights up but won't power on the computer, and the heatsink won't even start working.
With I had a spare AMx mobo and a spare CPU and heatsink, but it's not the case, so I can't cross test...
Removing the cmos battery didn't help either...
Also, no beeps at all. And CPU looks perfectly fine, no bent pins, and put and removed from socket without any difficulty.
So, what do you guys think?
Thx!

I found it on standby with the power LED flashing but it would not restart. Just the blue LEDs for <0.5 secs. I even reset the BIOS.
Could there be an Electrical Overstress on mboard damaging CPU?
Quote from: Bas on 29-July-11, 18:18:40
Could be 2 things: 1 PSU underpowered or broken (or both)...2 CPU overheating (something wrong with the heatspreader of cooler).
The blinking led shows it did an emergency shutdown to prevent damage.
I already tried with 4 different PSUs, Antec, CM, Corsair and OCZ, from 450 to 600W. All had the exact same behavior. So what is this freaking emergency shutdown caused by? Tried with Kingston and Patriot ram, so the only parts that haven't been cross tested are the mobo, the cpu and the heatsink...but again, it worked well for half an hour!

Quote from: Bas on 07-November-11, 17:59:19
I have seen thousands of boards myself, but can still count the bad ones on two hands.
(if you forget the bad-desinged ones, but those show up in the forum in big numbers, like the last Intel 67 series before B3)
Me too, 2 bad boards in a year probably makes 2011 the worst year since I built my first computer back in '98. And unfortunately, these two boards are the same brand...
Quote from: Fredrik on 07-November-11, 22:08:19
It worked till you put it in the case. User related. Probably a stand-off too many and/or motherboard under-side got scratched in the procedure.
nope...check my writing again: worked for 10min out of the case, then for an hour into the case. THEN it stopped working.
