My 945P NEO has missing sockets

i bought my motherboard last december,
now i realised that my ide and firewire socket heads are missing, can someone tell me where can i put those plug pins back?
cause when i read the manual, the IEEE and IDE port are written optional in the motherboard map
maybe msi didnt put it in or something else, still i really wanna use it if it was there
is there a way to put em back? cause i really wanna use the pins for my firewire bracket and my extra ide hard disk i have.....

Hi Dallasourora and others,
I am finding this problem to be more and more insidious.
It was bad enough that the box says PLATINUM and we didnt get our IDE ports, but it also says that it supports SATA RAID. I have now found out for sure that it does not!
The ICH7 Chip does not support RAID! Additionally it does not appear to support NCQ either.
It takes the ICH7R to get the raid function.
I have spent hours and hours trying to install a RAID only to find this motherboard does not support it.
This appears to be one of the worst motherboard purchases I have ever made. The advertising ploy that MSI is using here would be like putting a 12" monochrome monitor in a box labeled 42" Plasma display. I am appalled.
I have written to MSI, but I am not holding my breath for a resolution. Looks like I'm out a few hundred bucks for nothing.
I see we are not the only ones puzzled by the labeling on the box.

ow...your box says "945P Neo Platinum"??
if it says then you got a platinum...i really don't know why "Neo" is written on the box since in MSI website the name for this MB is only "945P Platinum"

im trying to install a Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS
i uninstalled all drivers for on board sound card
and then disabled on board sound in the bios
then when i install hardware and drivers for new soundcard it doesnt work
im a newbe at this is the jumpers or something i have to change?
sorry if this is in wrong section

my system detects the soundcard but the creative control center does not detect it
"no cards found"
im running vista at moment (using vista creative drivers)
(in xp detected device and creative control center detected it too but no sound)
i may invest in new psu alright but i dont think this is the problem in this case as i tryed soundcard before i bought hard drives

Sapphire X850XT w/ 945P Neo-F

Has anybody tried this combination: MSI 945P Neo-F and a Sapphire X850XT (100106SR-RD)? I don't see this exact model in the compatibility chart but the Radeon X850XT is listed. I know that sounds dumb but I want to get as much info as I can before I spend and dollars on a new videocard.
I just want to make sure that I will not have any rejection symptoms.

Thanks!
After a bit more research, dollar for performance, I may decide to go with the X800XL. With 16 pipelines, 256-bit interface and 256MB of GDDR3 memory, I think the 850 may be a bit overkill for my apps, not to mention the dollar difference. I do game but do not need eye-bleeding graphics. The X800XL seems to be a good medium of performance at a descent price.
Just 'cause I really don't know, aside from the obvious hardware menu items (type of memory, amount of memory, AGP or PCIE, core clock, i.e. all things being equal), what is the difference between, say, MSI, Verto, Rosewill, Chaintech, Connect3D, Sapphire, etc. versions of the same GPU? Included software package? Cosmetics? Any performance difference going with an OEM/ third-party vendor vs. a factory direct ATI or nVidia videocard solely based on where it shipped from or whose name is on it? Sounds crazy I know but is it really worth the extra dollars for an ATI board instead of a much less expensive Connect3D for example?

No internet connection on either x64/x86 flavor on Windows 10 -- Missing Sockets entries as well.

Hi all,
I was referred here from http://answers.microsoft.com site, by a Microsoft Support Engineer....
I had (and still have virtual-box). I have installed yesterday the VMware workstation as well (which apparently is not compatible with Hyper-V.
I've installed both Windows10 Preview flavors under HYPER-V. On either one, I cannot connect to the internet (and thus activate either). The x64bit says it's missing files needed (I've
checked detailed view, it points to "missing windows sockets registry entries" and has 2 "?" marks under Device manager (one of which is the acpi) - Even after a fresh, SECOND, install.
The x86 flavor, says i do not have valid ip. (I had to make local user account because of the no internet access). I went through the defaults while installing
(no motherboards drivers have been asked to be installed). This is a Desktop computer with wired high-band routers.
Can anyone suggest a solution for the connection? (I now obviously also have the external switch and is is connected and i can surf on the primary Win8.1 OS).
Do I really need BOTH VMware and Hyper-V installed / Which one is better for this specific problem..
ANY help will be greatly appreciated.
Update:
I've took off Hyper-V completely. Re-stared, Tried to set it up under VMware workstation, got the same results. Either "no valid ip", or missing sockets. (Vmware adapter is enables, but no connection in either ipv4 and
ipv6. Exactly the same
happens with Hyper-V.
With Utmost Respect,
The motherboard is MSI. The CPU is I-7. 6GB ram avail.
Kind Regards,
Me.
Update 2:
Problem resolved. Here's what i did:
Completely removed the Hyper-V platform from Windows Featured. Then rebooted.
(Vmware services are still running but with no usage for now).
Opted in the Enable PAE/NX under system/Processor tab in VirtualBox.
Opted in the Enable VT-x/AMD-V & Nested Paging under system/Acceleration tab in VirtualBox.
Created the Virtual PC as VHD!!
Both of the above -- are grayed out when the Hyper-V platform is installed and therefor will NOT allow Windows 10 Preview to either install well or connect and activate - until the Hyper-V is removed.
Seems that taking OFF the native, built in Hyper-V Virtualization Platform altogether - Solved the issue.
Just shows that the respectable VirtualBox (v.4.3.12),
Works like a charm where the other two platforms, Did not. (Kindly note that the Hyper-V Switch, was installed with no evadent issues, it did show traffice - for a few seconds, then remained enabled BUT both IPv4 & IPv6 went to no connection).
Windows managed to successfully Connect and auto activate -- on both x86 & x64 flavors.

Use this set of drivers and put on FAT Flash memory card to access.
They will work and better due to your having a 2011 model you should consider Lion OS eventually.
Can't locate? the Apple Setup.exe or Bootcamp.msi (Bootcamp64.msi for 64-bit) will only be accessible when in Windows.

945p neo cannot load up xp

Hello there new to this forum!
right, im running a 945p neo with 2GB ram, 3.2ghz intel pentium 4 with a 512MB nvidia, i have a ide 100 GB hard drive running xp, it goes past bios, then as it just tries to load up xp main screen it then dissapers, then resests it self, ive activited the ide function in bios, even swaped ram about, but still no joy, then i bought a sata 120 drive put that in, tried loading windows xp in, loads basic drivers up but then blue screens so, im well and truly stuck!
Any ideas
all the best
Andrew

I've got the cause from a google search:
The error is occurring because a driver -- such as a PCI bus driver, disk driver, or IDE controller driver -- is missing from the image. Many developers start the XPe development process using the DOS version of Target Analyzer -- TA.EXE, instead of TAP.EXE. There are a number of reasons why developers go the TA.EXE route: loading Windows XP Pro on the target is time consuming; it is physically not possible to install Windows XP Pro on the target; or running WinPE (the Windows Preinstallation Environment) is not possible.

945P Neo - Where have my IDEs gone ????

Hi all
Have just bought a 945P Neo which I was really pleased about but when I set about installing the bits and pieces, I noticed that it only has 1 IDE connector ??
The space where IDE 2 and 3 should be are vacant as are the 2 chips just above them.
Can anyone explain why this is the case ? Have I somehow bought a scaled down or 'demo' version or something. It's most unusual just to have the one IDE connector and as you can imagine I am now stuck for somewhere to connect my second DVD Rom drive.
Can the IDE 2 and 3 ports be added easily and failing that, what is the maximum number of devices that can be connected to just the IDE 1 connector ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Dallasourora and others,

HT1981 I will use my 110V MacBook in the Philippines which has 220V sockets. Will the World Travel Adapter Kit help me?

I will use my 110V MacBook in the Philippines which has 220V sockets. Will the World Travel Adapter Kit help me?

Assuming you're in North America now, you probably won't need any sort of plug adaptor there; most sockets in the Philippines are the same as those in North America. In case you do, it doesn't contain the correct adaptor.
Voltage conversion is handled by the MacBook without any additional components.

I just bought 15' Mac book pro. as i work a lot on Garageband. I even downloaded all the drummers and loops to update the new Garageband 10.0.1 now my problem is that all my past work which i did on older version on GB, has missing sounds in it.

now my problem is that all my past work which i did on older version on GB, has missing sounds in it. so here are my questions
1. DO i have to install JAMPACKS on my new Macbook pro?
2. Are JAMPACKS still compatable with the new GB?
3. There is an UPDATE on the new GB on Appstore and once i click it, it goes to billing no detail is provided what this update is for so help!
thanks

3. There is an UPDATE on the new GB on Appstore and once i click it, it goes to billing no detail is provided what this update is for so help!
See: This document explains what the in-App purchase is about.
Expanding GarageBand for Mac (v10.0) content with an in-app purchase
Do you still have your old Mac?
How did you migrate from the old Mac to the new Mac? Did you transfer your old software and documents using Setup Assistant? Then your old GarageBand '11 version should have been migrated, and all your instruments.
if you did not migrate GarageBand '11, copy your old Instruments Library and Loop Library over from the old mac. Copy the following folders to a thumbsdrive and merge the missing dontents into the corresponding folders on your new mac: (from the system library - the top level library folder on your Macintosh HD):
/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/
/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/
And if you would like to continue to use GarageBand '11 for access to missing features, copy also /Applications/GarageBand over, but to a subfolder of Applications. I recommend, to install the old GarageBand as well. It can be used in parallel to GB 10.0, and will come in handy, if your old projects are having problems.
1. DO i have to install JAMPACKS on my new Macbook pro?
2. Are JAMPACKS still compatable with the new GB?
The JamPacks are nice to have, a terrific collection of instruments and loops, but if you did not have them previously, that will not help with your missing instruments. You can instll them by buying Mainstage 3. They work well with GarageBand 10.0

InDesign CS6 Export to PDF has missing objects

When exporting to PDF, I have a 6-page document that has missing objects from the master.
Here's the document with the content removed:
lab.cyke.net/pdf/MissingObjects.pdf
The first and last pages were constructed correctly. All pages in between are screwed up. Any ideas?

@Jongware – I have a case with InDesign CS5.5 7.5.3 on Mac OS X 10.6.8 where master pages based on each other lead to false representation of page objects.
Not only in pdf export, but also on the actual InDesign pages. Made an IDML from it, opened that in InDesign CS4 and the error was gone.
This problem is documented at the German-Swiss forum "HilfDirSelbst" at:
http://www.hilfdirselbst.ch/gforum/gforum.cgi?post=496285#496285
Some screen grabs together with the IDML are attached there.
After opening the IDML from InDesign CS4 with the error gone, I exported another IDML from CS4, opened that in InDesign CS5.5 7.5.3 and the error was present.
To detect the error look at pages 1* and 4 of the mentioned screen grabs.
Uwe
//EDIT: *the screen grab of the pages palette of InDesign CS5.5 shows the error on page 4 only. The error is present outside of page 1 as well, but cannot show on the screen grab.

How exactly does flex decide if the dataprovider in a lineseries has missing data.

How exactly does flex decide if the dataprovider in a

If there's an object in the collection that doesn't have the

MSI 945P Neo-F - PC doesn't boot

Hey,
my PC worked for about 1 1/2 years, but a few days ago suddenly it didn't boot - the screen was black and the PC made some beep sounds (1x long, 2x short -> video card defect). I installed the D-Bracket and it says, that there is a problem with the floppy device (but i have NOT a floppy device). I did the C-MOS reset -> nothing changed. I changed the RAM sticks -> nothing changed. I unplugged all devices (but video card, CPU, RAM, PSU) -> nothing changed. What shall I do now? (I have no other video card - only AGP, but my board doesn't support AGP)
PC Data:
Mainboard: MSI 945P Neo-F
CPU: Intel Pentium D 920
Power Supply Unit: 350W (with case "Jou Jye JJ-7029B") Detailled Specifications
RAM: 1024MB (and also tested with 512MB DDR2 Corsair Value-Kit [Dual-Channel])
Video-Card: MSI NX6600 - VTD256EH passiv
And... Sound+Networkcard, Mouse+Keyboard, DVD-Drive

1) Reset CMOS
2) Test with only 1 x RAM
3) Test with a better PSU
4) Test with another GPU
Btw, I'll move your thread to Pentium 4 and Core Duo section for more discussions.

Article says K8N Neo has SATA frequency locking problem

This article says that the K8N Neo has SATA frequency locking problems when overclocking:
http://www.nforcershq.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=1801
First of all, is this true?
And if it is true, do we have a BIOS that fixed this problem.
My drives are PATA right now so I currently don't have any problems but I plan to get SATA drives/adapters soon.
I'm running 240 HTT (1:1) so not having the SATA frequency locked could be an issue.

Well, I´m running HTT 230 now, and I´m always using my Raptor as OS disk. Haven´t had any problems yet (with my disk). It´s connected to s-ata_1. Haven´t tried the other ones.
But sometimes when I boot (200 or 230HTT, doesn´t matter) I get artifacts on the boot screen and in Windows, so I have to restart.
Could it be a partially working AGP-lock? It seems as at works most of the time, but sometimes not... Strange... AGP is set to 66-67MHz

MSI 945p Neo-2 V Hanging...help!

Hi, after an exhaustive search regarding the problem and one previous post topic about the same thing happening (with absolutely no resolution, I might add) I've decided to start a new post topic to see if anything can be done.
I have in my possession an MSI 945p Neo-2 V (MS 7176 ver. 2A1 written between PCI slots) connected to various other components, all of which appear in my signature. When everything is connected and the power switch is pressed, the power turns on, the heatsink fan and computer fan both turn on and the hard drive clicks to life. After that..nothing. No bios, no "no os detected", nothing screaming at me that I done eff'd up. At this point the diagnostic bracket sits on this:
1. Red 2. Red
4. Red 3. Green
which tells me it's hanging on the video initialization. After RMAing the first board that did this to me and getting a completely new board and processor, the same thing happens.
I have tried the various steps suggested in the other topic: separate component testing, using only one memstick to get bios to post, sitting the mobo on a non-conductive surface and turning it on, checking front panel jumper connectors, but nothing seems to be working. I swapped out every component with known working ones to no avail. I swapped in every component to a working computer and separately they all work fine as well. The people I'm making this computer for have been waiting about a month for the RMA to go through and everything and I'm about to lose both my mind and reputation here. Can anyone help?
EDIT: Here's a link to the original topic I found - https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=94091.0
Other Edit: guess it's a neo-2 v, not h

i suggest you to swap the graphic card first and see how it goes.
Prior to this incident did you OC your rig??
Alternatively try clearing cmos or jump start the psu using a screw driver
-Yes, I swapped out graphics cards, with a known working one. Still no change. I thought "broken pci-e x16 slot" but this is the second mobo of that type that's doing this, so either this particular type of mobo is crap or I'm getting shafted.
-No I never OC'd (wasn't going to try, either), since it never got past the video init, and therefore couldn't get to the bios.
-Cleared the cmos (the JBAT1 jumper I believe) and still no change.
-And I really don't trust myself with a screwdriver and electricity.
-Finally, no, I didn't update the bios. This happened out-of-box.
