MSI Pro-E vs Patriot DDR3 3x2048MB Viper II XMP Series 1600MHz CL8.0 EP LLK

Hello.
New equipment as in signature. After few hours (OS installation, drivers installation), during one of required reboots BIOS (AMI BIOS 8.5) started beeping. The number of beeps varies form reboot to reboot (1, 2 or 3). But as beep codes say, all warnings are about the memory. I checked and 1 memory slot was not discovered in BIOS and in WinXP (DIMM B_0). I pulled out the memory modules (pretty hot) and tried different configurations (only 1 module, 2 and 3). No matter how many modules are in, I get beeps during boot-up, just the number of beeps changes. With my last configuration and last boot-up all 3 modules were discovered but still I got beeps.
All configuration is original, nothing changed. Memory voltage is 1.65V and I checked in the Mobo specifications that it supports 1.5V... Do I have to change some settings?

Just to rule this one out: How many USB Devices are attached to your system? Does the number of beeps change if you unplug some of the USB Devices?
Yes! This is the problem. I have Natec Medusa X-Scissors USB keyboard and HP LaserJet 1200 printer. (I have also Logitech USB wireless mouse but was not connected during the test). When I unplug both of then from USB input, there are not extra beeps at all. When just one of them is connected I get the beep. However once there are two short beeps and once there is just one beep but with different 'musical tone', 'deeper one', but rather not long - the length as the standard beep. I had problems yesterday with my 2 different Logitech wireless USB mice connected to these usb ports - their speed was even worse than in my old PC with USB 1.1 - sometimes it was perfect, and sometimes I could not move a cursor at all. Quite interesting fact is that when I could not move the cursor with mouse1 I could move it perfectly with mouse2!
Furthermore (don't know whether this is important) - the M-connectors for onboard USB/power switch/reset switch/etc did not work! I had to plug the cables directly to the Mobo without the M-Connectors! (this was the case both for USB on front panel and for front panel switches).

My error, not listed in the manuals bios section. Yes, Spread Spectrum should be disabled. What exactly does the RAM show for speed in the Cell Menu?
Sorry I just noted it right now, after my tests with USB. I think this is not revelant any more? (see above)

    This is driving me mad! I just recently installed a corsair h70 to my setup. After doing so i keep getting the 1 long beep with 2 short ones following it. From what ive been reading my other forums it has to be either the ram or the video card. Well iv reseated the cards and made sure the power was connected. I also tested it with another video card i know works. I actually tested the board with a completely different set of ram too. Ive tried resetting the CMOS and checked to see if everything was plugged in correctly.
    Basically all the computer does is boot up ( fans start up and lights turn on motherboard ) then after my mouse lights up i get the beeping noises and everything just stops.

  • I7 920 on MSI Pro OC

    Hey guys, I'm just going to post my OC and see if this is ok.  I haven't messed with any of my voltages.  I have my i7 920 on my MSI Pro with EIST off (so no turbo mode). Spread spectrum disable (that is what I read....I have no idea what it does) and overspeed proection disabled.  My Base Clock is 177mhz with a multiplier of 21. Now Windows is reporting 3.5GHz (a 20 multiplier) while CPU-Z reports a 21 multiplier for 3.72GHz.  I trust CPU-Z, but I don't know why Windows reports 3.5GHz.  Also, when I run a stress test (Prime95) for all 4 cores (or I guess "8" with hyperthreading) the multiplier drops down to 20 (according to CPUZ) which doesn't make sense to me because I though I disabled all features that slow it down.  It's not a big deal, but any ideas why?
    Also, another weird problem.  Before I had bios version 7.0, I had EIST on (with turbo mode) and set the base clock to 183 to get 3.66GHz.  Ran great, stable as a rock, went up to like 3.8GHz or so when running single threaded apps.  But now with bios version 7.1, I can't get that exact same settings.  It crashes/locks up when I try to load any game or stress test.  I don't know why a BIOS update would prevent that.  That is why I am now using my new OC settings (described before).  I don't get it.....thanks!

    EIST is a power saving feature, when 'Enabled', it steps down the CPU at idle or low requirement. Spread Spectrum 'Enabled' is for systems plagued with EMI problems. Here is a link to a good forum thread that talks a lot about the 21 multiplier. https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=124684.0
    The bios version 7.1 should have given you QPI 'realtime' voltage in Cell Menu. That is a plus. As to why some parameters get changed with a new bios, I'm not sure any of us know that one. If you wanted to, a reflash back to the 7.0 version is always an option. Windows is showing correctly, as well as CPU-Z. The 920 can't stay at 21 multiplier at full load, as it is limited, locked by Intel.

  • MSI pro s3 standby

    Before I get flamed I just want to say that I HAVE searched this problem, but could not seem to find a definite answer, so please don't yell too loudly.
    Anyways, I have an MSI pro, and I can't get the S3 Standby state to work.  The computer goes into Standby, but when I turn it back up (with the power button, or mouse, or keyboard when I have it enabled) the computer starts up but nothing is displayed on the screen, it is not even receiving a signal.  The keyboard lights also don't light up (Numlock, etc).  I have tried adjusting bios settings till my face is blue, same with the Windows XP settings.  I have the latest ATI drivers for my 4870x2.  Any help would be much appreciated.  The only way to fix it is pull the plug or hold the power button down for 6 seconds until it shuts down. Oh, and I have bios Version 7.0.
    Thanks.

    Hi!
    I have exactly the same problem as knexkid.
    My system:
    MSI X58 Pro (BIOS 7.1), Core i7 920, GTX260, 6GB DDR3 1333, bequit 550 Dark Power Pro PSU, Vista Business x64.
    My CPU is running at a BCLK of 175. But what I found out is, that S3 does work, if the CPU is not overclocked.
    I tried various BCLK-Speeds testing if S3 works or not.
    133 S3 works, 140 S3 works, 150 and higher S3 doens't work.
    It would be interesting to know if knexkid's PC shows the same behaviour.
    If that's the case, MSI's answer doesn't help much.
    I think that some clock (QPI, Uncore Clock, etc.), that is depending on the BCLK is running out of it's specification and causes this behaviour.
    Anyone any further ideas? 
    My system is similar to yours, just different power supply, and I'm using OCZ 12GB ram. My S3 works perfectly in Vista Ultimate x64. I'm not running this system overclocked, CPU standard specs.

  • MSI pro post beep

    I am used to a normal POST beep being one short beep, and all is well.  Everything on my MSI pro seems to work fine, everything boots, and no errors occur, but the POST beep is rather weird.  I will try my best to describe it: Short high, short low, short pause, short high, short low.  The last 2 beeps occur a lot quicker than the first two.  Is that normal?  I figured it should just be one short beep. Thanks

  • 10x memory ratio on MSI Pro E

    I just built a new i7 920 system with 1333mhz DDR3 ram and an MSI pro e motherboard. In the bios the memory multiplier is set to auto and the ran is running at 1066. Since the ram is rated at 1333 I should be able to change the memory multiplier to 10x in the bios correct? When I went to the bios the max memory multiplier I found was 8. Am I missing something?

  • How to adjust VCORE in MSI Pro-E X58?

    Hey guys; I've built my first rig and I'm interested in overclocking the i7 I've bought. I've already read a lot on OC'ing and the potential hazards that come with it. In any case, I own the MSI Pro-E X58 and was looking to OC. I've steadily increased the BCLK using the default voltages, but when I hit 3.4 GHz (with a BCLK of 170), Windows crashed after about an hour of P95. I opened the cell menu in the BIOS looking to bump the voltage up a notch, but am a bit confused as to how to do this. Under the cell menu, I noticed the "CPU Vcore" at 1.328 V; I find this odd because I thought the default voltage setting for the Core i7 was 1.2? Also, I'm somewhat unsure as to what the "CPU Voltage" setting does; is this linked wit the "CPU Vcore" setting? My best guess so far is I can change the CPU Voltage to +/- from the CPU Vcore but I'm not entirely positive. Any help would be great.

    QPI is 1.20V default on the Pro-E. Your CPU Vcore of 1.328V's will need to be bumped a bit to remain stable. CPU V./Vcore, basically the same thing. Just bump up the CPU V. a step at a time until the system remains stable. Be sure Spread Spectrum in bios Cell Menu is disabled. Remember to keep an eye on the RAM speed as you increase bclk. That can be another source for instability.

  • MSI PRO e DEAD ?!?

    Hi,
    Under is my post from tech powerup. So as last thing I post it on your forum.
    Quote
    Hi,
    I need some advice what to do ...
    Today, I turned on my pc (see specs watched some news, facebook ,etc.)
    I noticed that I have 1 left FAN for my PC from work (got from some new case, quiet with normal connecotr SYSFAN), so I wanted to install it because I needed more airflow .
    So installed turned on , saw that POWERLED is not working. Checked and it was plugged. So I turned on AND no BEEP !
    Tried agan NO BEEP (ofc normal booting sound of Corsair H50, etc) after 5 sec It rebooted and again no beep. It stays just like that (turned on).
    ANY ideas ???
    OFC no post , blank screen
    today: Tried both GPUs separatedly , still nothing
    Tried all RAMs seperately
    Removed all driver
    changed speaker
    Changed GPU to Nvidia 6200LE
    Checked CPU
    Checked CPU pins
    Cleared CMOS
    Took out battery for CMOS
    AND STILL NOTHING = Rly angly ... = Blank screen
    Yea , working all fans , all leds (phase of CPU) , just NO POST NO BEEP - Turn on , reboot after 5 sec and stays that way.
    BTW I planned to put this board to server in next 3 days, it was on my schelude , now, I can just watch dead Board with working Leds and Fans ...
    PS: It's really possible to destroy board by connecting SYSFAN bad way ?
    EDIT: as I can see , under me is same problem with MSI PRO e ... NICE
    Thanks for your fast reply

    Have you tried disconnecting the power cord, removing the battery and resetting the CMOS via the pins (should show how in your manual), reinsert battery, then check all power connections to mobo, ensure mobo attached firmly at all standoffs (to eliminate shorts), plug in and try to power up.

  • Msi pro-e mb possibly keeping psu fan on?

    Hello all, fresh i7920 build with msi pro-e mb, corsair xms3 6gb, and a corsair tx750w psu.  The problem i'm having is when i power down the system for the night the psu fan will continue to run all night long even though the system if off(not in sleep or hibernate).  I am guessing its the psu or the mb or maybe even a bios setting i'm overlooking?  Any suggestions or feedback would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

    Hmmm,  Another experiment to try.  Turn off the system and do what I said before with unplugging the PSU and draining the capacitors.  Now, unplug the SATA connector to your HDDs and the Power connectors to the HDDs.  You can leave the ODDs connected.  Re-plug in the PSU with no HDDs connected or powered.  Turn on the PSU and turn on the computer.  You should get a blinking cursor or some message.  Turn off the computer by the power switch.  Does the fan still run?
    If the fan still runs, do you have access to another computer or another PSU?  You could try this PSU on another computer, yours or a friends to see if it does the same thing, or borrow another PSU and see it that fan runs on your PRO-E when the machine is off. 

  • MSI-PRO-E Motherboard and OCZ3G1600LV6GK

    I have been doing some research and am deeply confused. I am going to be buying a MSI Pro-E motherboard and am planning on buying OCZ Gold Ram (3 x 2GB). I was looking at the timings and am getting confused. Some people are saying you have to mess with the BIOS to get the timing to 8-8-8-24, and others are saying that you don't have to do anything. So I am wondering if you actually have to do anything in order to obtain the timing of 8-8-8-24? Also Can the motherboard run RAM at 1600Mhz without overclocking or would I have to overclock the RAM in order to get that speed?
    Here are the links to the RAM and the Motherboard:

    Thanks for the reply. Sorry I forgot to mention that I am going to be using a I7 920 processor. Also I found a picture of the bios settings someone had and they were doing the second method you mentioned.  I don't think it has more than 1 XMP profile, and if it does I'm probably not going to change it because I will be using the second method. So just to double check to make sure I'm not messing this up, I want to set it to 2N not 1N right? (Just checking cause I read somewhere that you usually leave it on 1N.)
    Typically you will want to use 1N but some RAM won't be able to do it properly...
    Something else you may want to consider: If you use 1333 mode instead of 1600 you won't have to increase voltage and often can use much better RAM timings. I've some 7-7-7-20 Corsair RAM in here but when I found out that in 1333 mode it runs with 4-6-6-15 without the requirement to increase the voltage, I was very happy to leave it at that. There are also other timings which can nicely be set manually - my tRFC is 49 instead of 88 now!
    Something which may speak against using XMS info: My corsair RAM is a triple kit, but somehow one module has one value set differently than the others in there...thus I'm using manual setup now (tRFC was set much too high anyway, it wasn't even using XMS info).

  • Are these temps ok? (Core i7) (MSI Pro-E)

    Hello folks, before I started doing some light OC, I wanted to make sure that my system was stable at stock settings, without any after market cooling devices.
    My h/w specification goes like this:
    CPU - Core i7 920 D0 Stepping 2.67 GHz
    Motherboard - MSI Pro-E
    RAM- Corsair 6 Gb kit 1333 MHz
    Video card- Nvidia 9500 GT 1 Gb
    Hard drives- WD 500 Gb X 2
    Operating system- Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit
    PSU- Corsair VX450W
    I ran Mprime (the linux port of Prime95) for an hour without any issues. The temperatures were as follows:
    Idle: CPU: 25-26 
            IOH: 64
    Load: CPU: 84
              IOH: 77
    I know that IOH temps are high at idle, but am getting an Antec Spot Cool fan to fix that. (thanks to the informative discussions on the forums)
    However what I want to know is that at full load, isn't the CPU temp too high ? My system didn't crash, but since I am new to this subject, please let me know what you think. Also, since it has been mentioned in the forums in threads regarding the high IOH temps that a lot of after market coolers leave little room for cooling of the heatsink...which brand/model/type of an after market CPU cooler according to you folks should I go for ?
    Also, is there a possibility of slightly OCing the system, say up to 3 GHz, with the stock cooler, or should I start saving for a good CPU cooler ?

    84 at stock?  Something wrong there.  Shouldn't even be going over the 50s.  Make sure you installed the CPU cooler correctly.  If you reinstall it and the temperatures are the same, then the chipset heatsink is making little/obscured contact and needs to be reinstalled.  A fresh blob of TIM on the chipset wouldn't hurt either.  (Doing both the CPU and chipset coolers would not hurt one bit.)
    I still don't know why MSI's IOH temperatures are still so high.  It's been months now and they still have this inconvenience/issue.
    Thanks a lot for the information. I have re-checked and the CPU cooler is installed fine, is fixed tight. I will try your other suggestions as soon as I get the thermal compounds. Sidenote- Arctic Silver Ceramique should be fine, right ?

    IOH is ok, but if you feel adventurous, new TIM & adding a nylon washer between the stock washer & spring should help. The Antec Spot Cool is a great temp reducer. All my rigs run a Zalman 9900. One reason I like it on an X58 rig, is because it gives a little passive air onto the IOH similar to the stock cooler. smile
    Added: Once you get that high CPU at load figured out, you should be able to run the stock cooler up to around 3.5-3.6 with no problem.
    Thanks HU16E, your posts on the other thread (on high IOH temps) have also been useful. I will look into buying the Zalman 9900, thanks for the info.
    I hope I haven't done any damage to the CPU by running that stress test for an hour. (n00b query: why didn't my system shutdown at such high temperature ?)

  • MSI X48 Platinum LGA775, CFire,DDR3,GBLan,SATA2,ATX not posting due to ddr3

    I cannot get this board to post except once when I had first built it a few days ago. I then moved the pc and added some other usb etc and since then the  pc will not post. The post lcd shows ddr3 and freezes. I then reset the bios and it posts and asks f1 to enter the setup or f2 for minimum defaults. If I  alter anything in setup it goes back to the ddr 3 error. When using f2 and min defaults it posts but tells me I have a startup file missing. It then restarts to a ddr3 failure again. Can anyone suggest some steeings and a way around this? I appreciate I need to reload vista 64 as the startup file is missing but I can't seem to get to the point of being able to do that.
    Thanks
    my setup is follows:-
    coolermaster haf case, with loads of fans etc

    The entire forum is full of similar OCZ DDR3 issues.
    http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/memory/ocz_ddr3_pc3_10666_gold_edition
    It's very hard to understand why do they need 1.7V if they're real DDR3-1333 CAS=9.
    Probably because they're not ... 
    Anyway, please post a screenshot of the CPU-Z Memory SPD settings.
    cheers

  • Is MAC Pro (late 2013) compatible with Intel E5 or E7 Series 10 core CPU

    Is MAC Pro (late 2013) compatible with Intel E5 or E7 series 10 core CPU?

    http://macperformanceguide.com/MacPro2013-CPU-upgrade.html
    Someone did some testing and these Xeon processors scale differently, turbo-boost means it can put a core to sleep when it isn't needed and give more to the cores that are.
    But, the number of apps that do use more than 8-core are in short supply.
    Then there is the contention between cooling and whether the cpu or the twin GPUs get preference, OS X won't allow both to ask for full 100%.
    We assume you know all there is about cpu scaling and usage and just need to see which ones are on Intel's list that are pin compatible and have the right thermal requirements and such.
    Fall is always IDF and v3 of the E5
