Neo2 Platinum: 4gb Memory issues

Hi,
I have just installed 2 sets of Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2PT (pair of 1024 MByte DDR SDRAM). This means in total I have 4 x 1gb modules. These are currently running at 2-3-3-6. However the system is only picking up 3gb. I understand the motherboard wont pick up full 4gb but losing a whole gig is madness. I also understand about the single and double sided ram thing aswell. Is there anything to resolve this issue?
Motherboad: MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum
Graphics: Gainward Bliss 7800gs+ 512MB
Sound Card: Creative Audigy 2 ZS
Coolermaster 650W Powersupply
2 X TWINX2048-3200C2PT (4gb RAM)

Cell Menu, DRAM Configuration, H/W memory hole Remapping & S/W memory hole Remapping available there.
i done this for both H/W memory and S/W memory. It seems that it is now picking up 4gb in the bios but only 3gb in windows.

DKA790GX Platinum and memory issues

I've had my dka790gx platinum now for approximately 2 weeks.
Build is as follows
DKA790GX-Plat - bios v1.6
AMD Phenom II X4 940
2 x 2gb Corsair Dominator 1066 (5-5-5-15 @ 2.1)
Gigabyte HD 4870x2
Creative X-Fi Extreme GF-PS
Tagan 900BZ
It has been working fine but all off a sudden I started getting the dreaded BSOD in vista 'apc_index_mismatch' and 'memory_management' - I've ran memtest and on the first test @ 45% the system reboots with 4gb of memory in. This happens whether it is running @ 800mhz or 1066mhz, I've also tried 4 x 1gb of corsair xms2 ddr 800mhz and get actually the same issue. If I run 2gb of memory then all tests are ran without any problems and again this is for both the dominator memory running @ 800 and 1066mhz, and also the xms2 memory.
I've then ran another test using the 2 x 1gb xms2 + 2 x 512mb xms2 (all ddr2 800) to give total of 3gb and ensuring all 4 memory slots are populated, and again all tests run fine.
I've tried the memory in ganged mode and unganged mode, but it doesn't make a difference, once i go over 3gb I have the problem, so is this a motherboard fault (i've opened support ticket but had to miss some info as it meant fully stripping down the pc to get hold of the sticker on the side of the pci slot) or a cpu fault seeing the memory controllers are on the cpu?

As far as overheating is concerned, it really shouldn't be a problem. Before getting a cooler for my RAM, it would get too hot to touch during full load, but would never run into any sort of problem. If you don't believe me have a look at what a SUPER*TALENT Stick looks like: http://www.pcstats.com/articleimages/200702/supertalentT1000UX2G4_full.jpg - Compare that to the dominator, The SuperTalent has to be just about the ugliest MEM-SINK you could ever lay eyes on EXCELLENT RAM though
Kind of a really silly question here: when testing below 4gb, you are testing both sticks, right? I mean they look identical, a small distraction & you're putting the same one back in...happened to me...
yep memory was tested as single chips, also as stated previously testing 4 x 1gb of other memory caused memtest to fail, but 4 x 512mb passed, so did 2 x 1gb + 2 x 512mb
memtest fails all the time when have 4gb of memory in this mother in any combination, but using pc-check all memory passes, if my works had a ddr-2 memory checker then I would have also teste the memory in that as that will pick out memory faults better than any software
Also when the dominator is in slot 1 there is about 1cm between heatsink and dominator fins at the most, so this be a possible cause of the memory getting too hot especially as I would leave the machine on 24/7, but as I've re-setup another machine to do the stuff this machine was doing then i'm hoping i don't see the problem..

K9A Platinum - 4GB memory seen as 3GB

Hi there
I recently built pc basing on custom parts and I ve got problem with running 4 sticks of 1 GB RAM.
When using all 4 sticks BIOS sees 4gb physical and 3gb usage memory and when using all 4 sticks my system boots about 10 minutes (no difference in 32 or 64 bit os)
Most BIOS options set to auto (RAM) except voltage - 2.1 V and 800mhz. Memtest tests RAM @ 162 mhz ddr332 ,but I doo not know if this is default.
(specs incluided in signature)
Main question is how to get it running on full performance and speed?

Fixed! :D
I updated the BIOS to 1.8, for some reason liveupdate was only telling me 1.1 was the latest update, when I ran it again, 1.8!
After that, complete refusal to even POST with 4GB
So I Cycled the pairs and found that leaving the stick out next to the CPU let it boot, but plugging it in refused to boot. I then cycled a working stick through all the slots to verify they worked and it was fine, I then took the suspect stick and it only worked in three of the sockets... Odd.
After more investigation, a couple more of the sticks were showing preference for certain sockets, then I noticed what the problem was. The manufacturer fitted heat spreaders were preventing the suspect sticks from seating correctly in a couple of my sockets due to some plastic stuff sticking up on the socket from where it was molded.
A quick adjustment of the spreaders and the sticks seat correctly and all 4GB is detected!!! :D
So my issue was a mixture of badly manufactured sockets (not removing the excess plastic) and not having the correct BIOS. Thanks to the mods who posted to help, that was the most painful RAM install ever (My thumbs are red from pushing the ram into different sockets)

K8T Neo2 crashing and memory issues

I bought myself a new PC in late december and have started experiencing some problems with it
Brief system specs:
MSI K8T Neo2
Athlon64 3200
512Mb Samsung PC3200 DDR400
ATI All in wonder radeon 9800 pro
LG DVD writer
Windows XP SP-1
Antec SLK3700BQE case, which came with what I think is an Antec smartpower SL350 PSU
I had two sticks of memory (both the same type), but one of the sticks failed memtest badly so I sent it back and got a working replacement. Both sticks would pass lengthy bouts of memtest on their own, but would fail occasionally if I put both in (It didn't seem to matter if it was in a DDR configuration or not, but I didn't test non DDR pairings as much). I tried turning down the ram speed in the bios, but it didn't seem to help. Any advice on getting this to work would be great.
A much more serious problem I'm having is crashing - The system will ocassionally shut itself down leaving the monitor without a signal. Sometimes I can reset the system, others I have to switch off the power before the system will respond at all again. In the past there was sometimes graphical corruption before the failure, although lately it has just been a black screen. This happens most frequently when working with games using 3D graphics, although infrequently will happen when web browsing. The crashing seems to have become more frequent lately, particularly since a local heat wave. The problem may have become more pronounced when I bought the DVD writer to replace a very old CD-ROM, although its hard to judge because I replaced the bad memory stick at the same time.
According to core center the temperatures seem to run under 50 degrees, but the 12V volatage is listed at only 11.12 to 11.18. Is my PSU the culprit here, or are these symptoms of a different problem?

Your PSU could well be the cause. Can you post its amps at 3,3v / 5v / 12v here? Antec PSU's usually do not have high efficiency (most likely 60-70%), so if the amps are already low and efficiency is too, my guess would be your PSU. It could seriously damage your board, cpu or vid card by the way...
Try solving the mem problem by raising the Vmem by 0.05v or by raising the latencies some (or both)....

K8N Neo2 Platinum RAID Boot Issue...

Hi everyone,
I am running two WD 120gb drives in single-drive mode. Everything is working fine. My issue is that every time I boot, I have to wait nearly 10 seconds for a message that says 'Detecting Array' just before it loads WinXP. The thing is, I have RAID disabled in the BIOS. How do I get rid of this annoying boot message?
Any help would be appreciated!

v1.9b6? Where do I get that?
I'm waiting for the official released BIOS. Does MSI realy want to provide us BIOS for supporting E3 and X2? AMD already announced these model for a while. Didn't MSI get any engineer sample from AMD for new BIOS development?

K8N NEO2 Platinum Power off issue

I know it sounds a bit crazy but please try to set your windows swap file on the same partition ( C:\ ) like windows is.
I have heard people fixed their shutdown problem with it.....
Good luck

Yes, that is correct, I have had this problem before on another system where the swap file was on another partition, but not the case here. Swap file is on C:\
Thanks to all for the info, I really appreciate it and please keep it coming.

[865PE/G Neo2 Series] DDR Memory with 865PE Neo2-PFS Platinum

SYSTEM SPEC: 400w PSU, Pentium 4 3.2ghz 800mhz FSB (HT), Matrox Parhelia 128 8x AGP card, MSI Neo2 PFS Platinum motherboard.
Hi there. Im looking for some serious help with my computer. I have a MSI 865PE Neo2-PFS Platinum mobo and have been using 512mb DDR RAM with it- the ram is PC2700 (333mhz), non-ECC, ubuffered, non-parity, 184 pin. Now, I have just purchased a new DIMM. This one is
1gb PC3200 (400mhz), non-ECC, Unbuffered, non-parity, HIGH DENSITY- DUAL IN LINE, 128 x 64, 184 pin
It doesnt work and my system refuses to boot up. I checked out the specs of the 865PE Neo2-PFS Platinum, and it says in the table that you can only use 400mhz DDR RAM with an 800mhz FSB processor (which I have). It says it supports 400mhz RAM, "DUAL CHANNEL", non-ECC, unbuffered memory, but no mention of "HIGH DENSITY" or "DUAL IN LINE". Is there a difference between "DUAL CHANNEL" and "DUAL IN-LINE". Also, does anyone know what the difference is between 128 x 4 and 128 x 64, they are both 1gb? SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!! I have seen some RAM from the same dealer which is not "HIGH DENSITY" and has the 128 x 4 configuration, and is still a 1gb module. Is that safe to buy? What RAM do I need (in detail) for my motherboard. Thanks!

Always useful with a complete systemspec.including PSU and biosversion, so please make one.
Can´t see anything wrong with the basic RAM specification - it also matches the MoBo basic specifications:
- Supports four unbuffered DIMM of 2.5V DDR SDRAM.
- Supports up to 4GB memory size without ECC.
- Supports Dual channel DDR266/333/400/433/466/500/533 MHz and up.
Have you tried removing the old RAM and booting only with the new 1GB stick alone ?
Using mixed RAM, sometimes works in "Single mode" (see mobo manual), but is not recommended.
Running Dual-channel ( 2x512 or 1024x2 ) is preferable and gives best performance, but then you need two identical sticks.
You may also need to increase RAM voltage some in bios (example 2.7v) to achieve best stability.
If you have some RAM compability issues with 1GB sticks - 2x512 RAM stick would be safer and give better performance, unless your aiming for more then 2GB in total.
You can also read about the RAM testreport here;
http://www.msi.com.tw/html/products/mainboard/testreport_pdf/6728v2.0/memory.pdf
About "Dual In line Memory Module" - I think it´s the long version for older DIMM description.
Just like "Double Data Rate" is the long version for DDR RAM.
DDR means Double Data Rate RAM (in opposition to the SDRAM or Single Data Rate). DDR RAM bends the transfer rate for clock cycle. It can go quicker because it executes 2 instructions for cycle of clock of the RAM instead of an only instruction like it is the case of the SDR.

Neo2 platinum Encountering Stability Problems /w dual channel memory

Hello,
Recently I built my first computer ever, see bottom. After getting windows installed I then had problems with installing other programs and general stability issues. I tried reinstalling windows and after the reinstall I got the same problems.
Something to do with the instability is when I start it up, and go into BIOS, it states my Athlon 64 3500+ as running at 2211, a half percent overclock. Also, even though I have the FSB set as 200mhz, when I go into CoreCenter on windows it states the FSB as being set 201mhz. In the nVidia system utility, it states my memory as running at 402mhz, and I had to crank that down to 400mhz to get stability, it allowed my to install programs without error, but there were still stability problems like crashes(blue screen, the computer just plain restarting without notice). I took out one of my memory cards, both of them work alone though, I've ran memory test utilities. That had a good effect and the computer runs fairly stable, but I still have problems, and I want to be able to take advantage of dual channel. I'm running my memory on auto and it's using the times of 2-3-3-6-2T.
Another problem I'm experiencing is the AC97 audio not being detected and loaded by windows, it will say I have no audio device, and the speaker will not show up in the notification area in the bottom right-hand corner. This happens inconsistantly.
-Thank You

hi bknoll,
welcome to the forum.
1) i wouldn't worry overmuch at the 201 issue.
2) Quote
I've ran memory test utilities. That had a good effect and the computer runs fairly stable, but I still have problems
which test utilities did you use, Don't quiet understand Quote
had a good effect and the computer runs fairly stable
3) It may be worth checking the Mushkin site or any documentation you have to verify that the auto settings agree with the quoted settings for the modules. It's not unkown for errors to occur when the memory controller on the CPU to misinterpret the SPD chip setting on your sticks - this is where the auto settings come from. Some memory like certain corsair modules need to run at different settings on AMD64, thus auto timings must be overidden,
4) Have you installed the Realtek drivers from the CD, & enabled onboard sound in Bios. When these are done normally there's the MSI Sound Effect manager in control panel. you just need to set your speaker config in the Windows Sounds & Audio Devices.
5) Usual question What power supply are you using as been underpowered on the 12v rail in particular can be the cause of crashes,

Will this memory work on MSI K8T Neo2 Platinum?

Hello,
Im planning upgrade to 64-bit athlon soon, so I would like to ask you, if my Corsair memory will work on MSI K8T Neo2 Platinum with AMD 3200+ 64-bit (90nm) procesor.
My memory: Twinx1024-3200LLPRO.

i'd be more concerned about your PSU m8 - sorry to say others have reported loads of issues whilst using that PSU on this forum

Install issue nForce3 Ver. 5.11 on Neo2 Platinum

Hello,
I am putting together a PC using the K8N Neo2 Platinum motherboard (bios 1.C), Athlon XP3200+ (Venice Core) CPU, an ATI Radeon X800Pro AGP graphics card, 2 X 512mg sticks of ram, one 160gig SATA hard drive and LG4163 DVD burner. The on board sound has been enabled in the bios.
I had no problems with a straight forward install of Windows XP Pro. However, when I ran the chipset driver install (nForce3 -V5.11) that I downloaded from the nVidia website, the machine rebooted into a blank screen. I tried rebooting back into Windows without success. The boot sequence would post but Windows would just hand on a blank screen!
The only thing I could do (i have done this twice now) was a complete reinstall of Windows to try again. Unfortunately, when I tried to install those 5.11 drivewrs the same thing would happen. I have finally had some success by using ver. 5.03 from the MSI website and everything now seems ok. However, I would like to install the latest drivers especially if this is a known issue which has been resolved. Anyone gfot any advice on this??
Thanks

It's better to used the ver 5.10 as it much more stabile rather than 5.11 as it causing many problems.

There are major problems with its IDE and LAN drivers. For example I get a BSOD or my rig reboots when it tries to install the network driver. After that Windows refuses to work again. Also the IDE driver has a SATA2 bug (when you use a SATA2 drive on the SATA1 nForce3) that causes a 30 second black screen delay right when XP starts to boot.
Latest official nForce3 driver is from 2005, and latest x64 driver is from 2004 and its beta... Now thats what I call being a lazy arse. You suck at drivers NVIDIA!
I also using SATAII hdd but jumpered it to SATA mode but yet i has no problem with that.
Also using the IDE n Sata drivers has no problem

K9A2 Platinum - Install to RAID - Memory issue

Hello all,
I have a MSI K9A2 Platinum AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard with a AMD Phenom 9950 BLACK EDITION Agena 2.6GHz Socket AM2+ 140W Quad-Core Processor Model HD995ZFAGHBOX.
I have (2) OCZ Platinum 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model OCZ2P10664GK, installed for a total of 8G, but can not get it to work at 1066, is this even possible? The system runs fine at 800, but keeps getting BSoD when switched to 1066. The timings from OCZ are EPP 5-5-5-18 (CAS-TRCD-TRP-TRAS), and I have played with the voltages in the range of 2.1 - 2.2V. Power should not be a problem as I have a COOLMAX CUQ-1200B 1200W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready Active PFC Power Supply. Anyone have any suggestions?

It won't run 1066 with all four sticks. Simple as this you already found the solution either you have 8 gigs and ddr2-800 or 4gigs at 1066.

K8N Neo2 platinum & 750g sata RAID issue

Hi there I have an issue with booting up. I have 1 200g Western digital HDD where windows is installed and I have 1 further 500g WD drive which were both fine until I decided to buy 2 samsung 750g HDD's to run in RAID. I have installed the drives in RAID and formatted but I am having a problem with booting.
If I reset, the computer keeps rebooting at the detection stage, powers off and keeps doing it over and over. Sometimes it will go through if you wait long enough. When I turn the power on and off it will go through the detection stage no worries every time but then at the XP loading screen it will freeze there. Sometimes it goes through and I will boot into XP fine and other times I can't get in.
I have the latest Bios 7025V1D but I am wondering if this issue is bios related because of the 750g size... The problem has only started since I have installed the two 750g HDD's in RAID. Does this bios version support 750g HDD's? Is there an updated BIOS to fix this problem somewhere?
I have 2gig of ram, 3500+ processor, latest Nforce3 drivers from Nvidia, RAID drives on sata ports/3/4, 500gig WD on sata port 1, 200 gig WD is HDD is IDE, Windows SP2 and all updated, ummmmmm everything else is fine I'm fairly sure.
I had a few troubles installing the RAID drivers because windows didn't want to accept the drivers I downloaded from here and did not want to accept the drivers in windows. I ended up getting it the drives to come on-line through the use of START/NVIDIA corp/ NVIDIA RAID program (cant remember the name, typing this on another computer).
Any ideas would be greatly and very muchly appreciated!
Terry.

Ok My PSU is: WideTECH 550w, +3.3v=33a, +5v=36a, +12v=25a, -12v=1.0a, +5vsb=2.5a.
I am only running 3 HDD's at the moment, the 2 750's and the 1 200gig. I have left the other 500gig unplugged until I get this problem sorted. I don't have a cd rom plugged in or a floppy. I only connect them when I need to because this computer is setup to be a storage server and I use my other pc for anything dvd related etc. The only other thing which is chewing power is the video card which is an old 6800gt ultra. So basically the power issue was fine until I installed the two extra HDD's and as I have unplugged the 500gig for the time being its only really one extra HDD which shouldn't be an issue. Oh I have two 80mm case fans using the psu aswell.
As for my other specs: I have 1 gig of Geil dual channel RAM 2x512 sticks, CPU=AMD Athlon64 3500+, MB is MSI K8n Neo2 Platinum, Vid card= Leadtek geforce 6800gt ultra 256 agp, You know about my HDD's but here they are again= 1x 200g WD caviar IDE, 1x 500g WD caviar sata(1 I think), 2 x 750g samsung sata (2 I think), OS = XP Home SP2 with all lasest automatic updates, latest BIOS etc etc etc....
My windows is a legit copy as well.
You mentioned putting my HDD's into sata 1 mode... I was of the opinion that my motherboard does not support sata2 anyway and would not allow them to run in anything but sata1?? If I did want to change the sata mode where would I do this anyway?
Thanks for your reply but I don't think it has to do with psu or sata mode although I'm interested about this sata2 thing, please explain.
Thanks in advance,
Terry.

MSI Neo2 Platinum (Winchester3200) - strange instability issue in Windows

My specs:
Winchester 3200 CPU
MSI Neo2 Platinum 1.4 bios
2 x 512 Kingston PC4000 3-3-3-8-1
Gainward 5900Xt GS
Seagate 160Gb SATA on SATA port 3
The problem seems quite odd to me, so I decided to post here. Generally, the PC is stable, passes more than an hour of Prime95, 3d marks run fine etc.. but in Windows (XP Sp1) I'm getting this annoying issue: when I let the system run idle for a while, with none or some windows open but no programs active, my computer literally freezes. I can move the mouse, but i can't open any windows or click any buttons. Still, the keyboard is responding so I hit ALT + CTRL + DEL and get the Windows Security window. There I click on the Task Manager and all i get is an empty desktop, with the wallpaper but no icons or any activity whatsoever.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Nope.. And I hardly believe it's a software issue. Will try a fresh install of XP today, nut the reason of such strange behaviour escapes me :] Cmon people, any ideas ?
If you problem isn't related to software, then the only other thing that comes to mind is that overclocking is the culprit. I'm not overclocking anything (except my 3d card, and that only slightly) and have no such problems with my K8N Neo2. You describe a strange problem, certainly, and in my own experience such behaviors--system runs great in some normal situtations but in others it doesn't--have always been related to overclocking of some kind. If you aren't overclocking anything then it's probably software induced. Good luck!

915P Neo2 Platinum - Memory?

Have devoured the MSI website & various others & I'm still not sure if DDR2 667 - PC2 5300 or DDR2 667 PC2 5400 is safe to use in the 915P Neo2 Platinum. One very tiny phrase, in one place, on MSI's website IMPLIES that it is OK, ". . . Support Dual Channel DDR2 533/400 MHz and up", BOLD emphasis mine. "and up"? I just can't interpret this.
At the price of these DDR2 DIMMS, this is no place to make a mistake, but the DDR2 667 PC2 5400 modules seem to be more plentiful, & even more competitively priced, than the DDR2 533/400 modules.
This is my third MSI build, & some of the posts here make me think I've made a mistake this time.
I would appreciate any advice/observations/experiences.

Some early, tentative answers to my memory question(s) are beginning to trickle in. As many of you undoubtedly know, DDR2-675 is a still-developing area, leading edge stuff. I did not heretofore know this . . . maybe I should have.
I am not a lazy PC enthusiast. Maybe I missed some of the available resources in my earlier searches & too soon resorted to pleading my case in this Forum (a dandy, if anyone cares what I think), & by writing Corsair. The "RAM Guy" at Corsair emailed me back with a nice, informative answer, & in the meantime I had just located some apparent answers on my own. Maybe these resources had been updated since I first looked, maybe I missed them, whatever, here are a few links that shed blinding light on the entire subject of DDR2-675 and some "wicked" latencies:

I am a 59-year old retiree geek-guy, with enough time to buy PC component parts & then build PCs and PC systems (this one for a grandson), & to research my choices. But, it's still difficult to track down the information novice builders like me need to make informed choices. The build process is infinitely rewarding, challenging, and, yes, at times very frustrating. I know . . . not exactly a news flash to any of you reading this.
Sorry if I previously whined in this fine Forum, & on this especially useful Board, "Intel P4 & Celeron P4 based board".
