You would have to do your own new fresh Windows install, with a borrowed Windows disc.

MSI Wind Top AG2712 i7-3630QM 1TB 128GB SSD 12GB W8

Hello everybody!
I'm from Poland and my English isn't very well.
I have a question: I have MSI Wind Top AG2712 i7-3630QM 1TB 128GB SSD 12GB W8 and I have gaphic card GTX 670MX. Would i have a NVIDIA GTX 970M on thic AiO PC? Please write back!
Good be!

Hi,
With AiO I guess it's similar to notebooks: it might work, but there are few factors that might have to be changed. For example you would most likely have to modify heatsink for the GPU. Also custom BIOS might also be needed.
As long as these can have their GPUs removed/swapped around. So even if you buy 970M, make sure you will be able to return it in case it don't work.
I would ask MSI as they have all the details about each AiO version and graphics cards, so they should be able to answer this straight away, simple as "Yes or No", as currently on the forum we can only guess whether it will work or not.

Wind Top AE2220 Hi-Fi problem

Hi all,
I was given a Wind Top AE2220 Hi-Fi from a friend of mine as it wasnt working, he kept the ram and the HDD and i have now put some ram and another HDD in it but when I turn it on I hear the fans whir into life and the blue led comes on at the power switch but then all it does is come up with a whitish screen for about 3 seconds and then goes off but i can still hear the fans whirring and the led remains lit. it does not go to the bios screen or anything. Does anyone know what the solution to getting this running could be?
Thanks in advance

Well ive had the back off of it and I cant find anything that looks like a reset button. it just looks like any other computer inside.
Thanks alot for all your help though, any other ideas, please let me know
It might not be a button. Could just be the usual 3 pins with a jumper over 2 of the pins.

Will the fact that I have opened it up and removed the warranty sticker render the warranty void?
Don't think it will unless you break something (visible damage).

Monitor keeps turning off on Wind-Top AE2220

Hi, I've a Wind-Top All-in-One AE2220, starting this morning I keep getting a black screen when I turn on the computer.
Pressing the LCD on/off at the bottom right corner will occasionally (2 quick presses seems to do it) get the screen to turn on for a brief second, and from that I can see Windows have started completely normally.
What might be the cause of this and is there anyway to fix it?
I've also tried plugging in an external monitor to use temporarily, but the monitor says there was no signal, is there anything I need to press to switch the display to the external monitor?

I have the very similar AE2020 model. The behaviour you are seeing is bad and I suggest exercising your MSI warranty. I had a fairly good experience doing that with mine a few months ago, though my reason was different. Like mine, your MSI AIO video connectors are for input only, not output. It's in your manual, though you have to look hard for the reference.
Bye.

Msi wind top 1900 easy viewwer

Where is this file? I've searched the hard drive, no luck. There is an instruction manual that came with the computer, but no program that I can find.
Never mind - found it. Warning guys, it does not install automatically with the rest of the software. I'm using AE1900 wind top with vista basic, 2G and 260G HD. Pretty nice machine, but seems very slow. Thanks for your patience with a newby

MSI Easy Viewer did not load on my system either. I finally found it on the CD that comes with the unit and which also includes drivers. The system with Vista works fine. I did follow some of the suggestions found in an on-line article (possibly PC Mag) which discussed 12 things to turn off in Vista to improve performance. I also set power setting to maximize performance, used Advanced System Care Pro to tune/optimize performance and free up available RAM, and inserted a ReadyBoost flash drive into one of the USB ports (definitely helps reduce boot-up times). On-line forums/articles also indicate that performance can be improved further using Windows 7 RC, although I have not yet done so.

MSI Wind Top AE2410 GPU Error ?

Hi there
I recently received a MSI MS-AE321 Wind Top All in one PC. Unfortunately I have this issue when the its powered on, everything is fuzzy
I have opened it up and had a look around for fault, all I can think of is the GPU thats now dead R.I.P
Is there by any chance I can just replace the GPU ? I'm a IT guy, but never worked on these machines before.
I'd appreciate any help on this, as I wish to have this machine running ASAP

Quote
When the machine starts up, its pixel blocks with cyan, yellow and pink buzzing all over the screen.
Could be just a connector or cable issue as well.
Quote
Hmmmmmm Board replacement you say ? Is this machine EOL ? - End of Life ? I actually wish to purchase a new board with a external slot for another GPU.]Hmmmmmm Board replacement you say ? Is this machine EOL ? - End of Life ? I actually wish to purchase a new board with a external slot for another GPU.
Which All-in-one is it as MS-AE321 is just the board? Actually if the machine has a integrated GPU there is no such possibility like replacing it with another board with MXM compatibility.

MSI Wind Top AE2050 - 32bit

Hi,
I'm interested in buying a MSI AE2050-074EU All In One PC.
But (annoyingly) I have one application that will only work on the 32bit version of Win7. I understand this device comes with 64-bit pre-installed, so:
a) does it come with an installation disk so I can wipe it and reinstall the 32bit version?
or
b) is there the option to downgrade to the 32bit version on the first start up?
or
c) If I happen to have my own Win 7 installation disk can I reinstall from that using the licence key that it presumably included with the PC?
And of course, I assume it actually works with the 32bit version...?

Quote
a) does it come with an installation disk so I can wipe it and reinstall the 32bit version?
No. It will come only with a recovery system, that will restore to original factory settings, which is 64bit Windows.
Quote
b) is there the option to downgrade to the 32bit version on the first start up?
No, because...
Quote
c) If I happen to have my own Win 7 installation disk can I reinstall from that using the licence key that it presumably included with the PC?
The licence key is only valid for that particular version of Windows. If you want to replace Windows with the 32bit version, you will need to buy a 32bit version to get a valid licence key.

MSI Wind Top AE1900 overclocking

Hi,
Despite the AE1900's BIOS not offering any overclock options, your Atom 230 can be overclocked easily from within Windows as the MS-7438 mainboard fitted into AE1900 features a RTM876-665 clock generator from Realtek which is - luckly - supported by SetFSB.
I could easily till my 230 to 2.1 GHz (I did not try any higher, you can by checking 'Ultra'). It required the PCI(-E) bus to run a bit faster. Please note that each CPU + chipset is different and may not overclock as high as another.
To test system stability I suggest to run OCCT.
For some reason, as a side effect of overclocking this kind of CPU, the TSC may be messed up, which causes unexpected behavior in software relying on this timer. To fix this, install AMD Dual-Core Optimizer.
I hope the information above is valuable to others.

Thankyou for the info, finally with this information i can overlock my AE1900.
The model i have is ATOM 330 with 2gb ram with windows 7 ultimate installed
This is the maximum overclock i can reach with stable results:
Here the CPU info without overlclock.
Here is how i configured setfsb after lot of try:
Here CPU info after overclock.
Performance meter windows 7 without overclock.
Now with overclock, processor now reach 3.3
After overlock, the noise form fan is the same.
No execive heat, just 5 degres over not overlock.
Super PI without overlock 1million, take 1.31 seconds
With this overlock just 1.10 seconds
Really great improvement, stability tested with OCCT.
I can see the improvement when test and use software like core and other heavy appz.
I really dont know if windows 7 need AMD Dual-Core Optimizer, aparently only XP, vista and 7 aprently no need this tool.
I apreciate confirmation about this.
Best regards.

Msi wind top AE2020 upgrate

I want upgrate my all in one pc.
Please can you tell me the better cpu and ram which is compatible with this pc?

I may have been unclear or confusing about what I said about the RAM I installed. I install RAM that was faster than MSI installs, and that matched the higher speed of the CPU I installed. This is the RAM I installed:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820161339
The CPU I install has a 1066 MHz FSB, and I may have been confusing that.
Bye.

please can you tell me which ram you use.Because i can't find ddr2 at 1066

Taking apart a Wind Top AE2220

Does anyone know how to take one of these apart? I've never messed with an all in-one pc before, but my fan is running more than normal and I'm pretty sure it could use a good blowing.
Just don't go taking that wrong you pervs.

Guess this should be moved to all in-one pcs. my bad!

Wind Top AE2020 usb issue

Hi
I'm using a number of these at work connected to a usb device. The usb device has it's own driver and this works perfectly connected to any port on any of our other computers (different models, brands and OSs). Our problem is that the AE2020s often freeze completely when we connect the usb device.
When they do work I've noticed that it can take several seconds before the computer registers that the device has been plugged in or out (going by the sound at least).
While I'm generally ok with computers this is a bit outside my field. I was thinking about updating the Mobo chipset drivers, but I'd love to hear if anyone is familiar with this problem first. Any help would be greatly appreciated
The computers in question are:
MSI Wind Top AE2020
Intel Pentium Dual Core T4500
320 GB HDD
3gb ram
Win7
BIOS v. 02.67
Please let me know if I've left out anything and I'll get the info

The AE2020 uses an nVidia ION chip set and not the usual Intel. That was one of the reasons I bought one. However, because it's not the mainstream Intel, Microsoft and MSI do not update the chip set drivers that often. I suggest going to the nVidia web site and downloading their most recent driver for this chip set. You might want to check Device Manager for the exact model name or use the nVidia automated update facility on their web site.
I have had only good experiences with USB devices on my AE2020. These would be standard devices like a wireless keyboard dongle, a BlueTooth mini-card mounted internally, a slide film scanner and an assortment of USB Flash drives and hard drives. It also sounds that this USB device you speak of is not something I might get at Best Buy. Is the driver for that device designed for Windows 7? You've said it works well with other systems. Are any of these running Windows 7?
Bye.

DID SYSTEM RESTORE, LOST ITUNES WONT RE-INSTALL

Right, this one is bugging me.
ive just got an ipod nano for my birthday (november) and have installed all my songs onto it.
but then after a few weeks of having itunes my pc decided it didnt like its sound device, so the sound on my pc completley vanished, so we tried re-installing all the drivers, no avail.
so, (this is on windows xp) i did a system restore to an earlier restore point (before itunes was installed!)
and then did another one, before that date too!
now, i dont have sound, i dont have itunes, i dont have quicktime.
and whenever i try install any of these i get this error message
[IMG]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y163/vibrating_cake/ipodprob.jpg[/IMG]
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y163/vibrating_cake/ipodprob.jpg
same for quicktime, just with quicktime in the name rather than itunes.
this is incredibly annoying as i cant even watch dvd's on my desktop anymore because something is blocking my sound device
so what can i do?????????
(to summarise)
i have windows xp
i did two system restores BEFORE i installed ITUNES
i cant re-install ITUNES because i get an error ITUNES.MSI is on a network device which is unavailable.
i dont want to loose all my songs and albums because theres over 1000songs in there.
and itunes will not open or install!
oh... and i have tried backup on the system restore function on windows xp, wont backup BOTH system restores!

If you are not getting sound, go to your control panel and open: Sounds and Audio Devices Properties>>Audio tab and check that your Sound playback device is set to your sound card.
For reinstalling iTunes, after that mess I suggest you do a full removal of iTunes and related programs with Installer cleanup of any programs that do not uninstall, then a reinstall.
Here is the method, follow it carefully and don't leave anything out.
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes.
