P35 Platinum Combo Turbo Memory Stick

Alright, I've had this board for over a year and a half now, but just recently upgraded CPU's from a Pentium D 930 to a core 2 Quad Q9650.
Here's my dilemma. When I took everything apart, cleaned it with compressed air and put it back together with the new CPU, I noticed I was missing one of the "turbo memory sticks" that comes only with this mobo (as far as I know). I tried looking for it, but it turns out that my roommate chucked it in the garbage (douche).
Since this tragedy I have been searching different websites, looking to see if it's even possible to pick one up by itself, and have had no luck. I'm stuck using 2gigs of ram until I can find a replacement.
Any suggestions?
PS. Here's a pic of the stick I'm talkin' about

Contact MSI and see if they can send you one or sell you one. >>How to contact MSI.<<
You can also look on Ebay to see if you can find one.

Need Help with Memory OC to 1066 on P35 Platinum Combo

Hi,
I've been trying to get my Corsair Dominator memory to 1066, but everytime I change settings, the system will not post. So far I've:
- Disabled EIST & DOT
- Disabled 'Configure DRAM Timing by SPD' and set values to 5-5-5-15 (left all others as is)
- Processor reports 333x9
- Set ratio to 1:1.6.7 bringing adjusted timings to 1109. I also have 1:1.2 for 1332 & 1:1.50 for 999
- Memory voltage set to 2.1
Not sure where to go from here as other MS reported here seem to have different settings than the P35 Platinum Combo.
Specs are:
- Intel E8400 3.0GHz Dual Core (45nm)
- MSI P35 Platinum Combo
- Sapphire Radeon HD 3870 512MB GDDR4
- Xigmatek NRP-MC651 650W Modular PSU
- Corsair Dominator 4GB 1066 DDR2 RAM (PC2 8500)
- Samsung 22X DVD Burner
- Lexa Blackline Case
Any advice welcome -- I'm at a loss.

P35 platinum combo will not boot windows after bios update via Live Update

Hi,
I had everything running on windows 7 fine until 2 days ago. I installed Live Update from MSI website. I was about to install driver updates for my motherboard, but the bios update went instead. my pc tried to restart after the bios update installed, but it failed. would not post and would only see black screen.
then i removed one of my memory sticks. it would post, but then windows would not start up. it would get stuck at windows loading screen. i tried to reformat with my windows cd. but during install it would blue screen of death me. i tried multiple times and it would always blue screen of death with different errors. the last one i remember was a message saying i should off turn shadowing and caching.
this all started happening after i attempted bios update via Live Update.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Help needed regarding P35 Platinum COmbo Ver 1.1

Hi all,
I have recently purchased P35 Platinum combo ver 1.1 motherboard and whenever I try t boot up the system, it boots...then shuts down and again boots up. After that...nothing happens...no display...nothing...and I do not even reach BIOS. The LED indicators at on the board suggest that there is some problem with the Memory. I have also followed all the instructions given in the manual and used the turbo cards. I am using 1x2 Transcend DDR2 800 ram. I also found few other people who have had the same problem....
http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/247596-30-issues-platinum-combo#bas
My config is:
Intel Core2Quad Q6600
MSI P35 Platinum Combo Ver 1.1
XFX 8800GT
Transcend 1x2 gb DDR2 800
WD 32 GB SATA
Samsung SATA DVD writer
Corsair HX 620wtts
Any help would really be appreciated....thanks in advance...

well I just checked the ram details on the net and it states:
VDDQ=1.8V ± 0.1V guess this means its 1.8V...

So I assume you have installed your ram module in the DIMM_DDR2_1 slot.
Do you know which are your memory specifications? I mean, voltage, latencies.
If the memory that you have runs @ 2.1 or 2.2 Volts, perhaps you have to use another ram module just to enter to bios, change the vdimm setting to the proper one, and then put back your original memory module.

Is P35 Platinum Combo compatible with Windos 8?

I never imagined when I bought Windows 8 that my pc might be too old but looking at the driver supprot page for my P35 Platinum Combo makes me think now that I should not be using Windows 8. My pc has been having problems every since I installed Windows 8 on a new drive. For a while it would often crash/auto restart. Then things were ok for a while. Now, in the past week, my pc is really slow. Simple things like opening file explorer take a very long time. Surprisingly, in safe mode my pc runs faster.
Video Driver is up to date and has been since I installed Win 8 (radeon 13.1)
board drivers up to date
malware/adware/virus scanned
running with only an ssd drive. 80gb free space on a 160gb drive
followed ssd drive tweaks such as indexing off, prefetching off, maintenance off, RAC off, etc...
minimized virtual memory to better use my 8gb ram
Just wondering what others think about running Windows 8 on this motherboard of mine. My specs are:
P35 Platinum Combo (msi.com/product/mb/P35-Platinum-Combo.html)
Intel E8400 (ark.intel.com/products/33910/Intel-Core2-Duo-Processor-E8400-6M-Cache-3_00-GHz-1333-MHz-FSB)
Intel X25-M SATA Solid State Drive - 160 GB, 2.5 inches (ark.intel.com/products/56603/Intel-SSD-X25-M-Series-160GB-2_5in-SATA-3Gbs-50nm-MLC)
Kingston 8gb DDR 2 800
Saphire HD 7850
P.s.
Can't post complete links since this is my first post.

USER-HOSTILE! Hahaha! Hilarious vid I can sympathize with the author. I'm a fairly seasoned user and while I did manage to figure out all the controls, after much googling, I still had to deal with all the crashing and slow downs.
Well I decided not to waste any more time and reverted back to windows 7. All is perfectly functional now and at a nice healthy speed. I think my hardware was just too old for Windows 8 since my friends pc is running fine in Windows 8. Granted... He hates the interface and is now jealouse that I'm back to Windows 7, haha.
Now to create my next catastrophe! Updating my bios. lol. I noticed that the most recent version will provide support for L2 cache which would be nice since it seems my proccessor has that ability.
Thanx so much for your response Bernhard.

Satellite C660 - have problem using 4GB Ocz Rally2 Turbo memory stick

Hi,
Came a cross this tread [http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=217818|http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=217818]
Sorry my bad English,
So, I have 4GB Ocz Rally2 Turbo memory stick, and it won't mount in the computer. My other 1GB Fujitsu Siemens and 32GB Verbatim USB sticks work.
This is brand new, 2 weeks old laptop. And it seems to be a problem in the hardware.
Windows 7 64bit.
Should I just send it to Money Back repair/warranty ?!?!

Hi JoneK,
Have you already tested this USB stick on another computer or notebook? Maybe the new USB stick is defective and so it doesnt work.
At the moment I doubt its a problem of your notebook because other USB sticks are working properly.
At least it could be a compatibility problem between USB stick and notebook but test it on another computer first.

P35 Platinum and Patriot Memory DDR2 PC6400

Hello,
I've tried to adjust RAM Timings, RAM Voltage and RAM frequency manually on my P35 Platinum with BIOS 1.4. I had a reboot loop at CAS 4 so I've tried to put at 1000 MHZ ratio 2:3 after a clear CMOS. It's working.
Now my Patriot Memory is working at CAS 5 ratio 2:3 2,2V and 1000 MHz.
Should I carry on my "quest" to CAS 4 or are these settings good enough? I'm quite lost.....What should I have to do?
Does Patriot Memory owners experienced the same issue? Why can't they be set to CAS 4?
One more thing: After the Post, the Marvell Bios loads but find no hard disk on adapter 1. With Bios 1.1, there was no problem. Do you have any explanations?
Thanks

Hello Spikape,
please list full system specs and provide more information about the specific model/type of Patriot Memory you are using.

I had a reboot loop at CAS 4
Can you try to be more specific about this? Was it an on-->off-->on-->boot cycle or did your system reboot multiple times?

P35 Platinum Combo - 1066 spec ram running at 800, help please

I just finished building my computer and although it runs perfectly, in the Bios it says my memory is only running at 800Mhz instead of the 1066 that it should be.
Could anyone please explain in simple terms how to turn up what is needed so I can configure correct. Also, any bios tweaks to improve performance, not necessarily overclocking, would be muchly appreciated
Many thanks in advance

belveder, your stick is OK. The highest non-OC supported RAM is DDR2-800. There is NO DDR2-1066, it's not a true spec. It's just OVERCLOCKED marketing gimics. The highest DDR2 is DDR2-800. The sticks you have only tell you that they have the potential to be overclocked to 1066. Nothing more. So when they're running at 400Mhz that is ok. nothing wrong.
If you want to get up to 1066Mhz, you MUST overclock. I personally don't encourage overclock, but if you insist, you may visit the OC forum.

P35 Platinum Corsair C4 Memory problems

Just recieved my brand new P35 Mboard, E6850 CPU, 4Gb Corsair XMS2 6400C4 Ram. Imagine my horror when the system wouldn't even POST!!! Took out two ram sticks and eventually got to bios. Changed the date & time and rebooted, would POST. Had to clear the CMOS to get to bios again. However it will not POST every time. The board came with v1.3 bios installed.
Is this a familiar problem? Based on all the various thread I have read lots of people have experinced the same. Should I flash the bios to v1.1, but will that support my E6850?
Or can I try some C5 ram, manually change settings and replace with my new ram running at C5 clock speeds?
Please help!!!!

Read this thread plz https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=110887.0
As it seems is the AUTO setting for the RAM. At least thats the case for the 1.4b3 version but I think its why all bioses from 1.2 and up have problems with ram.
Just set the ram divider manually don't let the AUTO setting.
Hope that helps

Ram on p35 platinum combo

hello guys
i have 2 x 1gb kingston 800mhz sticks and one 2gb kingston 800mhz stick
all cl5(but the 2gb smaller in size!!) , i know this setup doesn't run in dual channel but why cpu-z showing that it does ?!
and is the difference between 4gb single and dual channel significant ?And if im going to oc my cpu
should three sticks prevent me from overclocking ?!
should i go and buy 2x2 or stik with what i have (which i may do since i cant sell them !!!! )

It can very well be true that the system is operating in Dual Channel Mode. The main functional criteria is that both channels have to be populated with an equal amount of memory (not the same amount of memory modules). The modules all need to have the same density, of course, however, not the same capacity. Even though 2x512MB + 1x1GB can cause stability problems in some cases (if the chips on the modules differ significantly), this does not always have to be the case.
http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/cs-011965.htm
Quote
Dual channel mode is enabled when the installed memory capacities of both DIMM channels are equal.
Quote
Single channel (Asymmetric) mode. This mode is equivalent to single channel bandwidth operation for real world applications. This mode is used when only a single DIMM is installed or the memory capacities are unequal.

K8N NEO4 Platinum-SLI - 4 Memory Sticks?

I read somewhere that there was a problem when populating all 4 memory slots with this board. Is that true? I'm not overclocked and I want to add 2 more matching 512mb sticks of curcial memory to the 2 already in there. I just thought I's ask before I spend. Thanks.

Hi!
It's not correct to use the word single sided /double sided when it comes to this matter of the A64 cpu's
memory controller .
SD/DD is short for single density and double density .
It's upto how memory controller and chipset see the memory .
This is a sisoft sandra report on the memory of 2*512MB modules.
It has to do with banks . single bank or double bank .
The modules migh be double banked even if all is physically mounted on one side of the mudules .
Usually this only means they have used larger dimm chips in meg size and need fewer to make out 512MB total.
The correct thing to do is to find out the bank organisation of your modules .
If the banks are organized to be two 256MB density on a 512MB module it's double bank (nomatter how it looks physically).
If they are shown as four with your current crucial modules you are in the same boat as others .
You will find out this by using sisoft sandra and probably some other utilities too .
Let me repharse then. If I have 2 banks containing only 1GB, then can I add 2 more identicle banks and still be able to use them in duel mode at at 2T?

MSI P35 Platinum Combo and kingston DDR3 1066MHZ not working

Hi
I've tried Kingston KVR1066D3S8N7/2G (2gb 1066mhz PC3-8500 NON-ECC CL7 240-Pin DIMM) and MB didnt even boot.
I installed the dimms as its done in msi MB manual.
Same result with two same ddr3 dimms.
BIOS v.1.30 and CPU Intel Q6600 @ 2.40GHz
Can someone please tell me should this ram work with this MB or not :(
Thanks in advance

Hi I have this exact same Kingston DDR3 ram as Jeff mentioned and same processor and motherboard. Bios v1.3, and even my PC wont display anything, the CPU fan is working the LEDs are on inside the cabinet. But its like the Screen gets no signal. I tried with Single stick and still no results. However it works fine with DDR2 ram. Please some1 suggest a solution.

Vista64 bit takes 10 minutes to load on p35 Platinum Combo

I had a lot of troubles installing Vista64 until I disconnected all sata devices except for the boot drive then it installed perfectly.
The problem I am having is that takes 10 to 15 minutes to boot, all that time is when it is on the screen with bar moving across the screen.
I could post this elsewhere I think but I am thinking that it is a problem with something to do with the hardware as I have to disconnect all devices when I install XP as well
Any help would be greatly appreciated

What optical drive do you have? Is it sata, if you have an optical drive try and make sure there is no cd in there.

P35 Platinum Combo won't restart

I have this problem with my pc that has just started about 2 days ago. When I reboot the computer it closes down ok but at the stage when it starts booting nothing happens (it doesn't shut down) it just doesn't go any further, the montor has the little box coming up flashing between analogue and digital and then stops as well. if the dvd burner was open it used to close automatically and now it doesn't
Pressing the reset button fixes the issue, which is what I have to do everytime I restart.
Any help would be appreciated

Do you have another graphics card to test?
You can also try resitting your graphics card.

Very slow restart P35 Platinum

I recently built my system and all seems to work great, except for restart time to Windows.
What I have: P35 Platinum Combo, Quad Q6600 CPU, 2X 2GB Transcend Dual Channel DDR2, 1 Maxtor, 3 Seagate 500GB sata drives in a Raid10 array , Samsung sata optic drive, PC Power & Cooling 750w PSU, Not sure of bios Version but at MSI Web site the bios check said I had the latest version. Windows XP Pro sp2
What it is doing, on a cold boot it will boot into Windows very fast, no problem, but when I started loading software I noticed on the restarts from Windows takes forever. the boot seems to hang up or I should say stall on the detecting the sata optic drive. Once it does it proceeds to load Windows normally, This stall is about 2.5 mins in duration, I do have Quick Boot inabled in the Bios,
Any thoughts on this?

Thats what I thought about doing too, but then thought there may be another way of doing this, guess not. I will check around and see if this has been done by anyone else and no bad things happened. I mean its not THAT much of a big deal now that all my software is loaded and rebooting is not done that often.Widows automatic updates are done in th dark hours and by th tim I get to the pc it hs finished the reboot process. ....But that said stuff like this bugs me and lurks in the corner of my head til I have to fix it! What I don't understand is why it does not demonstrate this on a cold boot if the machine is turned off completely and thn turne back on it just zipps through the boot process ???
