Need help with MSI GeForce 6800. Pc says its an LE...

Hi all I did a search but couldnt find anything relating to my problem. If I missed it then I apologise in advance.
I bought an MSI 6800 and installed it but it says that the card installed is a 6800 LE.
All the packaging and the stickers on the card itself say its a 6800 but the pc says otherwise.
I installed all the software and searched for updates. I installed new drivers but still it says its an LE.
How can I find out if I got a duff card or a problem with windows and drivers ??
Is there a major difference physically on the pcb that I could check out ?
cheers.
JunkDuster

Thank you very much for the pictures.
I did what you said and guess what, yep, it said 6800 LE.
I now have the great displeasure of having to pay for postage to return this item and hope that I can get a full refund and go elsewhere.
That was the first and last time I will use that company again.
Cheers for your help in stopping me from getting ripped off.

MOVED: Need help with msi mega 180 + athlon xp-m combo

Need help with msi mega 180 + athlon xp-m combo

AFAIK, you shouldn't need a pinmod for a Mobile Athlon XP CPU to work in a nforce2 mobo
did you have any other CPU installed prior to this one? if so, refer here to clear the CMOS: Clear CMOS Guide
next, refer to your manual, or download from MSI, for location of the FSB jumpers; ensure J8 is shorted across pins 1-2, and J7 is shorted
finally, enter your BIOS setup menu, and under Advanced Chipset Features, set CPU FSB to 133mhz (or even 166mhz if you have DDR333 memory). the only thing i can't see in the Mega 180 manual is where you set the multiplier...
which is where the BIOS has limited overclocking features, and you might have a problem here
i think i'll pass this over to the Overclockers forum, where someone may be able to give a better answer....

Really need help with MSI R7970-2PMD3GD5/OC:(

Greetings to all,
I really need help with my brand new MSI R7970-2PMD3GD5/OC. I've purchased it two days ago and I didn't really have time to test the card until yesterday. The card is I think way to hot for my "liking". It idles at 56c-60c, at full load in Heaven benchmark 3.0 in 1920x1080, extreme tessellation and 8xAA card reaches 95c-97c. Stock cloacks are 1010Mhz/1375Mhz and stock voltage is 1,174v. Case is being cooled by two Noctua NF-P12 fans. Also I tried lowering the voltage and "underclocking" the card to a standard 925Mhz in small increments, but it doesn't help at all. Each and every time it results in BSOD and dx dll errors and complete system failures. Replacing the card wouldn't be a problem if I lived in a "normal" country that has access to a steady supply. Retailer that sold me a card told me that only 5 cards total have been imported from the launch day and told me that i bought the "last" card in my country. They could order a replacement but it would take them more then a month to do so.:( Ohhh and one more thing I don't overclock, everything in my case is at their default values.
Recently, I read that "Amd released" a bios update for a standard reference boards that turns them into a "GHZ editions". Also lot of users report a lower voltage requirements and lower temps with that "boost bios". As I understand this card pcb is not Amd's reference board design, I could be wrong it's not that uncommon.. So I didn't want to risk warranty by flashing it to a position 1. Will MSI release the boost bios for this model of card? I am humbly asking MSI staff on how to proceed regarding this problem. I would be immensely grateful for any help you could provide.

what PC case you use exactly?
have you tried to open PC case side door and to retest?
Hi,
it's open case. If i close it the temps get even worse:(
They get better for other components, but not for gpu. Two Noctua NF-P12's are cooling the case, first one is positioned above gpu, left side next to cpu. Other is right beneath the gpu, right side of case. Just under the hdd section of the case. I tested each and every component with my backup card nv 8500gt. They function within the specified parameters. I'm getting somewhat worried.

Need help with my GeForce FX 5600

:( ;( :( ;( :( ;( :( ;( :( ;( :( ;( :( ;( :
Please could some body tell me what is wrong with my geforce fx 5600 vtdr 128 graphics card
I have recently purchased the card and have noticed that in powerstrip and 3d mark it states that the core clock speed is 54.0 mhz and the memory clock speed is 100.4 mhz
I know this is wrong because it states on MSI's website that the core clock speed is 325 mhz and the memory clock speed is 550 mhz
Please could somebody help me with information or how to correct the problem or if this is normal
Thanks very much, help would be much appreciated.
Here are my current system specs incase this has some effect or is the cause of these unusual clock speeds
AMD Athlon XP 2000+ Processor
768 Mb DDR 266 (PC2100) RAM
Gigabyte GA-7DX+ Mainboard
MSI GeForce FX 5600 VTDR 128

Can you play your games better than you could with your old graphics card? Can you get high resolution and nice pretty textures?
If so, why worry about the numbers pumped out of a piece of software that doesn't let you wander about shooting aliens (or whatever your gaming bag is)?

Need help with MSI GT70 0NC-029NE bluescreen problems

I've just bought this new MSI computer, and downloaded a few programs like skype, steam, origins etc. When I open all of them at the same time, the bluescreen appears saying; memory management. The computer has 8gb ram, so it shouldnt really be a problem.
Would really be nice with some help on this as it is quite annoying

Quote

The amount of memory is not the problem, but a fault with the memory, or the memory controller (in the CPU) could be the problem.
Is there a particular program that causes this BSOD?

Will these three other pieces work well together with MSI GeForce 6800 GT 256 ?

Hello :hypecrite:
I have ordered myself some new stuff ,and maybe a little late to ask for answers ,but ...
Wondering if my VGA : MSI Ge Force 6800 GT 256 which I will recieve tomorrow will work well with the following which are soon coming:
*Corsair Value Select VS1GBKIT400 ; PC3200 1024
*CPU AMD 3200 + 2.2 GHz
*Motherboard MSI K8N Neo Platinum
t
If PSU is needed : Thermaltake Silent Purepower Polo12 W0032R - 410 W ;+ 3,3 , -/+ 5 V , -/+ 12 V.

I've got same Mobo and VGA. At the moment it seems to be not possible to oc the VGA stable higher than 400/1100 with fastwrites enabled (i've allready done vmod to 1.4V, without it freezed even at 360/1020). First i thought it was a VGA bios issue, but after some tests with different bios versions i think it's a driver problem (forceware or maybe nforce or both). Hope nvidia will fix this soon.

Need help with MSI P45 Neo3-FR

I haven't been here in a long time. My old board (just replacing it) worked perfectly for almost 4 years after I ironed out the kinks (MSI 865p Neo2-FISR) but I finally decided to upgrade my rig, but here comes the headaches...
I bought the following for my new setup:
MSI P45 Neo3-FR (came with BIOS 1.3 installed)
2GB (2x1) Corsair Dominator 6400C4D
MSI Radeon HD 4850
Intel Pentium Dual Core E2180 (I want to overclock it hehe)
Lite-On SATA CD/DVD-RW
Old Hardware being used:
Antec TruPower 550W EPS12 (single rail 36amps on +12)
Cooler Master Centurion (forgot what model) Case
Logitech USB Keyboard
Logitech MX518 USB Mouse
2x120mm fans
2xMaxtor SATA 80GB HDDs (note: NOT SATA II, and I want to run these in RAID 0 off the ICH10R, this is specifically why I bought this board I was going to go with the P43-Neo3 over this, but the inclusion of RAID sold me on it)
1xMaxtor SATA 160GB HDD (note: NOT SATA II)
Aside some trouble I had with the Intel HSF installation was a breeze. Everything is in. I wanted to run everything stock first. Jumped into the BIOS and set the following:
SATA Controller - RAID
DRAM Voltage - 2.1v
Drive Layout:
SATA1 - 80GB Maxtor
SATA2- 80GB Maxtor
SATA7 - Optical Drive
SATA8 - 160GB Maxtor
First power on to get into the BIOS was quick. After setting SATA to RAID, POST will hang at Auto-Detecting ACHI Port 1....then find HDD after about 20-30 seconds. And it will repeat itself for Port 2. So its taking me close to a minute (I might be exagerrating but it sure isn't quick and long enough to irritate me having to keep booting) just to POST and even access the BIOS.
Tried to use my current Windows XP install, got to the Windows XP Splash screen and it rebooted. Tried again, with super long ass POST, again rebooted at the splash screen. Said, fine I'll reinstall XP.
While browsing here I forgot where I read about the SATA and long posts, so I changed my 2x80GBs to SATA3 and SATA4, it no longer takes a minute to POST, goes quick as normal.
Set Optical to boot, go into the Windows XP Install screen, F6 for custom drivers, made a RAID disc using three sources (1. RAID drivers from MSI Website, 2. RAID drivers from MSI CD included with Motherboard, 3. RAID Drivers from Intel website) and each time at a certain point I'd get a BSOD.
Tried again by moving my last HDD/Optical to the ICH10 and disabled the Jmicron. Same, BSOD.
Switched off RAID in the BIOS and set it to IDE. AGain BSOD at XP Install.
Started to think it was a Memory issue, ran Memtest both sticks passed.
One thing I noticed in the BIOS, it has my RAM clocked at 1066. Everything is on auto minus the voltage, but I didn't think it would affect it. So I changed the Ratio from auto to 1:2 (800mhz CPU:800mhz DRAM) but still BSOD everytime I try to install Windows.
This is getting frustrating. I've run out of ideas. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Read here how to do it:
>>> Slipstreaming Windows XP Service Pack 2 and Create Bootable CD<<<
>>> Slipstreamed Windows XP CD Using SP2<<<
Other option is borrow such installation disk from friends.
I moved away from my "friends" and none PC literate, so I'd be better off driving to the store and buying Vista at this point. Haha.
Okay, going to try this...sounds like that project I started a whiles back but got lazy.
Thanks guys, I'll report any results.

I need help with MSI CR52-A2 52x24x52x CDRW Drive

Hi,
I am running Windows XP Home Edition. My MSI CR52-A2 52x24x52x CDRW Drive will not work. When I restart my computer the light on it flashes red, green, red, green, red, green, etc... When XP is running, if I click on the drive under "My Computer" it opens up the drive but no files are found. If I try to add new hardware, I'm told that the drive is working properly. When I try to burn a CD with Windows Media Player I'm told no CD Burner is found on my system. Please help! Does this have to do with the BIOS?

Welcome to the forum superaverage.
1) Before posting any problems related to your optical drive, please post full system specs AND PSU rails (look at my signature).
2) Tell us how do you have your drive setup (Master, Slave, in primary channel or secondary channel).
Edyros!
The recommended setup for ANY CD-R/W or DVD-R/W is to set them in the secondary channel as secondary master (assuming that your primary master is your HDD).
If you're using nero as your burning program, try downloading the latest ASPI drivers for windows XP.
Try flashing your drive's firmware to support more media and to fix minor bugs.
ALWAYS use an 80-conductor IDE cable for ANY drive.

Need help with msi mega 180 + athlon xp-m combo

Dear forummembers
I had a question regarding the athlon xp-m. I installed the cpu in my mobo and it works at a slow speed. 600mhz (multiplier @ 6, fsb 100) So I used a pinmod. Now it runs at 1400mhz (multiplier @ 7x systembus and x14), but I have 2500+ m @ 45 watt or something so it should run at 1862. The problem is my fsb. It runs only at 100. How can I change the FSB? I selected in the bios fsb 133 but it jumps back to 100 all the time. I have the newest bios available, downloaded and installed with liveupdate. is it possible to set the fsb in the bios, or do I have to change the pinmod again? I know the site for that: pinmod map viewer
I selected socketview, barton and 7x systembuss + 133mhz and I checked and checked again. I did inserted the pinmodwires like it's shown. I used 5 cutted speaker fiber wires (copper)
My current speed is: 14x 100 mhz, but I want 14*133. The multiplier is correct, but the fsb isn't. What is the problem? Does anyone know?
Here is an example picture, for people, who don't know what a pinmod is:

AFAIK, you shouldn't need a pinmod for a Mobile Athlon XP CPU to work in a nforce2 mobo

NEED HELP with MSI 6590 KT 400

Hi!
I got a new AMD XP 2600+ FSB 333 and 2 Corsair DDR-Ram 256MB 400 Mhz CL2.
I have the latest bios but can´t use the cpu with FSB 333 and Ram with 400Mhz. I tried only one ram but it worked not either. It shows 333Mhz Ram in both ways.
It works with CPU FSB 266 but I want to have 400Mhz with the correct multiplier and FSB 333.
Thanks for any advice!
Eddie

i've found that my samsung ddr400 doesn't work at ddr400 when i take the fsb past 151. i just leave it on spd and supposedly it configures it 1:1. you sometimes get better performance running 1:1 anyway.
i would just leave the timings on spd and mabye try tweaking them. ignore what the post says and go for the best bench results. does your comp boot with the ram?
i wouldn't trade that ram for a 512mb stick. keep the two and maybe get a nforce2 with dual ddr. i don't see how 1 stick would get better results than 2 sticks. just make sure you don't have the sticks using the same memory bus. ie. put them in slots 1/3 or 2/3.

Need help with MSI K7N2G-ILSR

This is probably a really easy problem to fix, but my internet time is limited since my old system is in pieces, and I have to do this from work.
My new MSI K7N2G-ILSR, running with a Barton XP2800 and 2 DIMMs of Geil 512MB DDR PC3200 , doesn't seem to be happy with things. When I tried to turn things on, I got no video output, and there was a regular series of beeps.
I believed this is just a memory issue, and I intended to look into it when I get home...however, it seems things are a little more complicated than I may have thought.
After failing to get any results with the pc3200 512 dimms, I switched to my old 2700 256 meg DIMMS, which I knew worked fine. To my surprise, the system then worked...almost. It got to a certain point, and then gave the message "no drive is connected to fastrack", or something to that effect, and then froze.
The system also worked with combinations of my old 256meg and one of the new 512s, but not with both 512s at once. The 256s, in combination, powered up every time; however, they didn't allow me to install anything. The combination of 2 256s and 1 512 worked most of the time, but would occasionally fail to detect the the RAM - resulting in the same steady beeping as earlier.
For the sake of curiousity, I removed the IDE cable from the DVD drive. To my surprise, Windows (the drive was not formatted) tried to load...which would not happen when the DVD was connected. I then reconected the DVD, and removed the IDE connection from the hard drive. XP tried to install, and then crashed...in fact, the whole system powered down. And now will not restart again. It's dead, and I can't seem to get a single response from it.
This made me wonder if the problem lies with my PSU. Does this sound like something which would happen if the PSU was playing up? I have a 450 watt unit, which I thought would be ok. But the only thing I can think is that the PSU doesn't have enough power to deal with the demands of my new system. I imagine the 3200 DIMMs require a lot more power than the 2700, which might explain why the system can't power up using two of them - the PSU can't handle it.
Any ideas at all? I'm getting more than a little frustrated now. Any advice gratefully received...

Remove all devices from your setup except the CD-ROM (or DVD device) and the hard drive, and connect each to the end connector on different IDE cable, making sure each device is set to "cable select" (preferred) or "master" (2nd choice). Plug the CD-ROM (or DVD device) into IDE2; Plug the hard drive cable into IDE1. For now, don't plug anything into IDE3.
Your power supply is probably adequate, but beware. While many PS'es are "high wattage," many don't deliver enough power to the critical 3.3V bus. Check to make sure that your PS is rated for AT LEAST 28 Amps for the 3.3VDC supply. If not, get a new ANTEC TRUE PS that is. Don't skimp on power; it's like you skimping on food, then running a marathon.
Only install (1) 256MB module in one of the two slots that are together. I recommend the slot closest to the CPU.
If you are running a video card, remove it and use the IGP for now.
Now, power up, and when you get the logo screen, go into your BIOS by pressing the delete key. If your screen is blank and just sits there, then power off, unplug the computer, and set the "clear CMOS jumper." Wait 30 seconds, replace jumper, plug in power cord, and restart computer.
When you get to BIOS, make certain that it sees both drives in the first BIOS screen. Set your time and day (if you like) and then go to the second screen and set your CD-ROM/DVD as the first boot device, set the HD0 as the second (it should already be that way), hit and save and exit, but don't set anything else. Your computer should now boot from the CD-ROM and try to install Windows (I assume XP.) When it asks for you to press F6 to load RAID drivers, don't.
Choose to format your drive using NTFS, don't choose the quick format.
