P35D3 Platinum will not POST, CPU: E8500, RAM: KVR1333D3N9/1G RAM HELP!

Ok guys please help me...
I received this item (P35D3 Platinum) back from MSI today after sending it to them RMA, they said there is nothing wrong with it, sent it back, and it is still doing the same thing.
Here is the issue:
1st when i boot it up the computer turns off and on 4 times by it self, then it freezes up on "testing Base and extended memory Testing base memory from 240k to 640k and extended memory above 1mb using various patterns" (light pattern is as follows: Group 4 - Green, Group 3 - Red, Group 2 - Green, Group 1 - red). On the screen/monitor it shows your "MSI" logo and says "press TAB to switch to POST or DEL to run BIOS setup." But it does not respond my pressing any buttons on computer.
Here is a link to your website that states my ram is compatible: http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/configurator_new/modelsinfo.asp?SysID=38177&mfr=MSI&model=P35D3+Platinum+Motherboard&root=&LinkBack=&Sys=38177-MSI-P35D3+Platinum+Motherboard&distributor=0&submit1=Search
I have KVR1333D3N9/1G RAM i have tried a single dimm in all 4 slots (item is new)
I have a Intel E8500 Dual Core Processor (item is new)
I have a invidia 8800GTX OC, (pulled from working computer, and i know it works)
I am using a USB mouse and keyboard. <-- (is that ok or do i need PS2 keyboard since no OS is installed??)
Why am i stuck, what am i missing here? Any help would be great
Thanks for your help on this issue..

Okay, from the symptoms you describe, your problem is rather minor. You seem to have the E0-Revision of the E8500 (which requires BIOS Version 1.6). Your BIOS is probably older than that and does not include the proper microcode to fully support that processor. The signs you describe are well known on P35 Mainboards.
Please check the following:
1) The sSpec-Number of your processor:
---> SLB9K = E8500/E0
---> SLAPK = E8500/C0
2) Check the factory BIOS-Version:
It should be printed on a small sticker on the BIOS Chip itself. You can find the BIOS Chip here:
Look for "A7356 IMS ? ? ?". If it says "160" where I put the question marks, you have v1.6 (120 would be v1.20).
Now, if your BIOS Version is older than v1.6, please try this:
- Download the latest BIOS Archive from the product site of your board and unpack the BIOS File (A7356IMS.160)
- Rename A7356IMS.160 to AMIBOOT.ROM and copy this file to an empty, formated and flawlesse floppy disk
- attach an internal floppy drive to the mainboard (make sure that it is properly connected)
- attach a PS/2 Keyboard
- start-up the system and hit CTRL+Home on the keyboard continiously and check if the system accesses the floppy drive and initiates an AMI BIOS Recovery Flash
If the you are able to update the BIOS via the AMI Recovery Routine, your processor should be properly supported and the system should be able to start-up properly after that.
If the procedure does not start after pressing CTRL + Home, try to get you hands on an older processor to be able to flash the BIOS the regular way to support your E8500/E0.
In case you cannot get your hands on a supported processor, I suggest you ask in a local computer shop for assistance. This looks like a solvable problem.
Ok Jack the newbie, i got a floppy disk and renamed the file, got a PS2 keyboard (and tab worked i was able to see i have v1.4 before it locked up on me.), did just as you instructed me... New the computer keeps turning off and on when i press CTRL + Home, i hear it start reading the floppy but then it just turns off and on over and over and does not update.
The only other processor i have is a intel P45 dual core, i think the mobo supports it but i dont know if it will work with the DDR3 ram i have. Thanks for you help,
One more thing, just so you know, after it started turning off and on i did pull the battery and press the reset bios button and tried again, but still it just turns off and on.
Thanks,
shawn

Dka790gx platinum will not post

Hi
Just started a new build and the above board will not post.
I have radeon 4850, 1 x hdd, 1 x dvd, 1 x 2 gig ram 1066, phenom II 940, antec earthwatt 850.
I went through the following process of elimination.
taken board out of chasis, only used 1 stick of ram, used onboard vga and dvi, cleared cmos, removed battery,tried another psu but this is a 550 watt hiper.
the green sticker on the bios reads 160 so i guess it has the correct bios.
Stumped now..Dont know whether its the board or the cpu thats the problem.
Any ideas thanks

Update.
The vendor tested the board and it posted for them ok. I spoke to their technical dept and they tried it with an older processor. I sent my processor and ram and they tested these and the board posted.
I received the board, ram and cpu back today. Set it up with a minimum of hardware and it still wont post.
I havent been able to speak to the technician but the only thing I can think of is the psu.
I have an antec eathwatt 650 (not 850 as previously posted..typo). This psu works as it has been use in my current setup with an intel core 2 duo 6400.
What psu's are people using with this board and processor. Phenom II x4 940.
thanks

K9A2 Platinum - Will not post... need help.

mobo: k9a2 platinum
cpu: am2 6400 black edition OR phenom 9750
ram: super talent ddr2 800 OR corsair dominator ddr2 1066 - have both been tried single stick only
video card: msi nvidia 9600gt OR ati x300 - used ati card to test video card failure
power supply: 610w pc power and cooling
hdd: seagate barracuda 250gb 32mb cache
OK... original configuration, being the phenom 9750 with the corsair dominator ram, and the nvidia 9600gt.
would not post, black screen... with 2 fast short beeps(1 long beep?) and 6 short beeps, for a beep code... which isn't even covered in the manual or anywhere online for some reason
it has been stated that the bios has to be flashed to the latest version in order to accept the phenom processors... so i then took a am2 6400 and put it in.
proceeding with the same beeps, i took out the ram and replaced it with a stick of super talent ddr2 800, dimm1 slot, single channel. it's also been stated in various comments that this motherboard doesn't initially accept dual channel, nor 1066 ram. i get the same beeps out of the dimm1 slot. i take the stick out and place it in the dimm3 slot... beeps go away, but the black screen remains.
i try different video card configurations, trying the two different video cards in either of the two pci-x 16 slots, black screen remains. in my last configuration, the beeps come back, so i am at a total loss.
anybody able to help me out?

Have you done >>Clear CMOS Guide<< yet? (With power cord removed from the PSU)
What keyboard you use?
Have you connected power cable for VGA?

P35 Platinum - will not POST

Hi all,
PC has been stable for nearly 2 years now. Problem started after a clean install of Vista 64-bit, while installing updates (had software problems, so clean install).
After one set of updates the PC hung while trying to shut down Windows for a restart - sat at the shutting down screen for a couple of hours.
Eventually I shut down by holding the power button.
On restart I wanted to enter Safe mode, so was trying to hit F1, but the machine seemed to be stuck on the logo screen - F1 doing nothing, Del doing nothing, tab doing nothing, so I restarted the PC again.
On reboot this time the fans span up, then immediately machine went into a reboot loop, every 3 seconds or so.
Checked diagnostic LEDs - first RRRR, then machine rebooted and gave RRGR - memory test, then reboot to RRRR, RRGR, etc.
I reset CMOS and dumped all but one RAM chip - still no post, blank screen etc, but now the diag LEDs go to RRGG (decompressing BIOS to RAM), and nothing else happens except I get a single beep every 10 seconds or so.
I've tried changing the single RAM chip, tried in different RAM slots, changed the PSU, but still the same.
Any advice please?
Thanks all

I almost certainly flashed to the latest BIOS when building the PC (September 2007)
When it September? Do you remember that? There were some serious issues with memory compatibility in BIOS v1.3 (released in July 2007) which were finally fixed in v1.5 (2007-09-28)). If you are using v1.3 or v1.4 your current problem may have to do with that memory bug. The symptoms were precisely the same and it sometimes happened that everything ran perfectly fine until the problem was triggered by a certain event. The solution was ususally to install a DDR2-667 memory stick and then update the BIOS to the latest version.
Quote
At this stage I'm thinking either the CPU or the motherboard is dead...
Not necessarely. Try a DDR2-667 memory stick (an old but functional 256MByte stick would be enough) and see if that changes anything. If it does not, please hook up an internal floppy drive to the board and a PS/2 keyboard and follow this procedure using the latest BIOS Release:

K9A2 Platinum will not post - nothing on screen

System info:
CPU: Phenom 9850
Memory: Corsair dominator 2x1GB 1066
Graphics: DIAMOND VIPER HD RADEON 3850 512MB/VISIONTEK HD RADEON 3650 512MB
Power: ANTEC 850W TPQ
Disks: WD RAPTOR SATA 150GB 10,000 RPM x 2
I put my system together this weekend and when I powered on, I got nothing on the screen. Unfortunately I don't have a PC speaker in the case, so I cannot here any audio beeps.
Before power on the motherboard shows an orange LED on. When I power on. two additional motherboard lights are on, both bluish - nothing in the documentation about what these are. The graphics card powers on as far as I can tell - the fan is running - as is the CPU fan. I have removed all other components like CD, disks etc. to just try to get POST screen visible. I also changed the graphics card to one that required a lot less power (VISIONTEK), but nothing happens. I tried moving the graphics cards around into different PCI-E slots as well, still no luck.
Its likely that the motherboard BIOS version is not correct for the CPU - 9850 requires BIOS 1.4 and I doubt that this MB BIOS is this version, but MSI tech support tell me that the board should still POST. Obviously I can't flash the BIOS if I have no screen.
I have reset the using jumper switch and removed CMOS battery; no luck. I also just put in one memory stick and this made no difference. Tried placing the graphics card in different PCI-E slots as well.
There is no information for me to determine the motherboard state so its very hard to figure out what to do next other than send it back.
Thanks, Rick.

Vista would not install either from my SATA DVD player; I don't think it has the drivers to do this from a SATA DVD, so I assume I'll have to use an IDE attached one for the install. I am sure it will be fun!
Rick.
Vista should install just fine from your SATA DVD drive since it should have all the drivers built in needed to use the SATA drives. All I did when I installed Vista; was go into the bios and tell it to boot off the DVD drive first and put the Vista DVD in the drive.
What message do you see when you try to install Vista? It could be more of a memory issue; since Vista is very tempermental and not as tolerant as XP; when it comes to the memory voltages and timings.

MSI Neo2 Platinum will not POST, but fans spin.

I bought this board about 2 months ago.
I install the board and it works fine, until a few weeks ago. Im playing fear and it crashes into BSOD...then every time i try to load a game BSOD. This points to the memory- so i look at my DDR booster, and teh memory is a little off...i correct it and the game loads fine. I play for a little longer, then exit to windows and then the computer just starts BSODing like every 5 minutes. So i was like " it" im going to cut the memory back...strangly, the only dividers that work were 133 and 183...the rest just did not work.
Then finally, i restart the computer, and no POST screen. I clear CMOS, nothing. Take the battery out for an hour, nothing. Take the memory out, no POST...I dont get it...the fans spin and everything powers on, but no signal is sent to the monitor.
Then today, a few weeks later, I plug in just a PSU and a video card. Same thing happens: Fans spin, no POST. oddly enough, whenever power is supplied to teh mobo it turns on, it doesnt wait for a power button to be pushed.
2 things that might help diagnose the problem:
Almost every BSOD pointed to ntfs.sys
The PSU makes that clicking sound like its restarting about every 10 seconds when i boot up and there is no POST.
Anyone know what i need to do? All other componants work fine in a AV8 3rd Eye, so it is the mobo.
Thank you.

Welcome to the Forum. Please post complete system specs by creating a "sig" as described in the forum rules. Be sure to include complete power supply specs (brand, model and amps on 3.3, 5 and 12 volts) as shown on the label on the side of the power supply itself. The fact that a component works in the ABIT board does not mean that it is not the problem in your board, so don't forget to list all components in reasonable detail (e.g., memory size brand specs, hd, cards). Please confirm that you board is MSI #7025 too. Good luck.
EDIT - We need to know your Bios version and whether you flashed, and if so, how and from and to what versions.
fixed. All info should be in sig. I have tried 2 different PSUs, my Powersream 520 and my Antec SL400 all to no avail.
I did flash my bios via booting off a floppy to the most recent beta bios, but it worked fine for a good while before eventually failing.
All the componants in the sig were working fine in the mobo, and my HTT was 305x9 Stable. I was using a DDR Booster.
And im sorry, what do you mean by MSI #7025?

More detail and a reply for the CQ50 - 130US will not boot with 8gb ram post

The specs, on the web site say that the max memory supported is 3GB DDR2 because the notebook was built with the OS Vista(32 bit) installed so that’s why the manual has the 3 GB max. memory supported limit. The 32 bit OS can’t address memory over 3.12 GB. To my mind that is not a spec. but rather a tech. writer who made a mistake and copied the sales literature. With Windows 7(64 bit) Pro. installed the OS can address up to192GB of memory if the system supports it. Other Compaq and HP Notebooks can deal with 8GB of memory installed. That’s why I would think HP’s could easily fix this with a patch or use one of their other BIOS’s.
The difference between 4GB and 6GB is that with 6GB system runs faster and the display quality has improved. I have set the cache size to large and the executive paging is set to off in the registry. The menu(System Properties - Performance Options – Advanced – Virtual Memory) is set to automatically manage the paging file size.

You should keep it in the original; thread you started.

I have k7n2 delta L --6570--amdxp-2500-512 mb pc3200 ram. powmax 400w power .ati 9600 all in wonder. I swapped all parts to a better case to fit a certain location and the system will not post at all. the diagnostic d-bracket has number 1 and 4 in red while 2 and 3 are green. the book only tells me that the processor is initializing with a note saying this will show information regarding the processor (like brand name, system bus. etc. but nothing will show on the monitor. everything was working fine before the swap. i have checked everything i can think of. i would appreciate some advise. sorry if i haven't posted all the proper requrements and spec's. thanks. paul k.

i reset the memory and cpu and video card. i think i disconnected everything in the case a couple of times to make sure it wasn't a simple blunder. nothing! i have a friend that wants to try look at it i may do that. also tomorrow i will try to post all my info like the rest of you guys have done. i'll give it a try anyway. also i done the other things you mentioned, i forgot what the questions were. you can't see the post info that i am replying to keep checking so i can answer properly and i forget things.

HP Pavilion dv7 1070us will not POST

Model: HP Pavilion dv7 1070us
System will not POST after replacing FAN.
I first replaced the FAN, then after re-assembling the unit resulting in:
Black screen,
CAPS-LOCK white LED continuous 1 second blink,
F12-WIFI amber LED solid ON,
The FAN comes on, then stops for a few seconds then restarts and stays on;
I thought this indicated that the CPU was running.
I did all the normal tricks:
RAM in-out various combinations,
CMOS battery removal.
Power adapter and Battery removal combinations.
Hard Reset by holding power button for 15-30 seconds w/o battery or PS attached.
remove un-necessary devices: HD, wi-fi, DVD, etc
Still does not work.
So I figured the Video portion of the CPU was bad.
I then ordered and replaced the AMD A10 4600m CPU.
Re-assembled the machine and still the same symptoms.
I guess the CPU was not bad.
I give up.
How could HP release a machine that does not POST when the main pieces are good:
Motherboard,
CPU,
RAM
Power.
I did not buy a new CMOS battery. Can't imagine that would keep it from POST'ing.
Any help ???? Otherwise went from working to JUNK.
A thought: Laptops are not worth the money you pay if they only last a few years.

G31M3 will not POST

MS G31M3 (MS-7528 Ver 1.0)
Intel Core2 Quad
2X1Gb Geil RAM
1X HDD
1X DVD R/W
400w PSU
MS Windows XP Pro
The PC has been gradually getting harder to start. Some times it takes up to fifteen attempts before anything appears on screen. Now the machine will not POST, the CPU fan spins but their is no display, and no beeps. Also the power and hard drive LED's are not illuminated.
Testing so far:
Swapped the PSU for a known working model - no change
Swapped RAM - no change
Disconnect HDD, DVD drive, external USB and audio connectors - no change
Removed the BIOS battery and re-set the CMOS - no change
I have also removed the motherboard from the case and placed it on an anti static mat with just the PSU, RAM & monitor attached - no change.
NO capacitors appear to be 'bulging'
Is the fact that the machine will not POST or show any display or show anything on the power and HDD LED's symptomatic of an on-board power distribution (blown voltage regulator) problem? the only thing that I have not been able to replace in the CPU, could this (if faulty) cause the kind of problems described?
I think the board is toast opinions please.

P67A-GD55 will not post

I am absolutely stuck and about ready to RMA this board as I believe the one I got is DOA, though I'm not 100% so I'm posting here to make sure that it is in fact the motherboard that is faulty and not some other piece. My computer will not post, no beeps, no video; it simply powers on, sort of.
Allow me to describe the problem. When I push the power button, there is a delay of about 5-10 seconds before the computer finally powers on. Once it does power on, it spins up, for maybe 3 seconds, then shuts off, then about a second later, it powers back on again. It will reset itself 5-6 times before finally staying on, then it sits there. No beeps, no post, no video.
Here's what I've done to troubleshoot the issue.
I have removed any attached hardware (video cards, hdds, etc) one at a time to see if one of them was causing the problem, but to no avail. I removed one of the sticks of RAM, that didn't work, then switched the two, also didn't work. I thought it was perhaps the power switch, so I swapped that out, that also didn't work. I tried a different PSU, also a failure. I got down to just the cpu, the motherboard, the psu, and a power switch, and it did the same thing. I double checked the CPU to make sure it was in properly (just in case), and it was in correctly. I'm not sure what else I can do to trouble shoot this board. I cleared the CMOS every time I changed/removed a piece of hardware and even bought a new battery.
Here are my specs:
MSI P67A-GD55
Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz - Model BX80623I72600K

If there are bent pins, what is the best approach to straightening them?
A strong light, a good magnifier, a pair of tweezers, & a steady hand.
It is also recommended for initial startup, that only one RAM stick is used. Placed in the primary dimm slot (blue closest to the CPU). Then load OS, drivers, etc., then add the other stick(s) later.

Hey all, thanks for helping out.
I came back to my computer one day to find it in a coma. The system was on, but the screen was getting no signal and would not come on by moving the mouse/keyboard like usual. I thought that maybe it had turned off the monitor for power save and then frooze some how. After restarting the computer I found that it was still doing the same thing. I shut down the system and unpluged. After waiting about 5 min i plugged back in and flipped the switch on the powersupply. This started the computer right up (even though i had not pushed th power button) and left it in the same condition as before. It simply would not post. After closer inspection I found that it was not posting because it wasn't getting far enough in the process before it was being restarted. I checked the restart button and even went as far as removing it from the motherboard. This did not help. I knew it was restarting because i could see it checking the optical drives then waiting for about 4 seconds, then a weird noise from the speakers (like a soft cruching so to speak) would happen, then it would do this all over again, non stop. That noise was familliar though, it was the normal noise that I hear when I push the restart button (I'm guessing a release of electricity etc..) so I knew what was going on.
After switching the memory out and in all orders, I stripped the system down to the bare min. This however did not change anything. I put the system back together and flashed the cmos. This made the system restart once, then "BEEP" it posted. It said CMOS Checksome Error - Defaults Loaded. I first pushed DEL to get into the bios. I changed everything back to how its suppost to be (time, apature, etc...) then saved and exited. This made the system go back into its restarting state. I then flashed the cmos again and pushed F1 to continue. The system booted up just fine. In safemode of course. Then i restarted. It then went back into its restarting state. I flashed the bios again. And after pushing F1 to continue selected it to go into windows normally. Everytime it does this it gets different results. One time it got past the windows xp loading screen and sat at the black screen before you get your curser and welcome screen (sigh... restart... flash..). It also once got in just fine, and after about 5 min got a blue screen about "bad pool caller". It most the time however gets a random blue screen right after you see the welcome screen. These blue screens consist of "bad pool caller", "IRQ Equal or Lesser Value", or No notes, just generic blue screen.
If i change anything in my bios it will not post. If i dont flash the cmos, it will not post. If i dont change anything in bios and continue, then restart, it will not post. The only way for it to post and for me to see anything on the screen is to flash the cmos. I thought it might be the power supply, but the only extra i have does not have the extra plug to power the 2nd cpu. After thinking about it though. I dont know if it could be a power supply issue, if it was then would it even load up into safe mode? Or why would it not load up into safe mode again after restarting. I have tried an extra stick of memory that i know works in a separate computer, but nothing changed. I have tried a different videocard... nothing changed. I have removed everthing accept the basics (motherboard, cpu's,videocard,memory,psu) and nothing changed.
I have worked on this for about 1 week now and can not figure it out. I have my useless MCSE/CSE/A+ certifications (I say useless because I dont have a job that uses them) but this one is beyond me. If anyone could help I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Brandon
P.S. I dont know if this is related, but I did have to change from useing the DVI connection to RGB plug to even see anything once I heard it post. I was useing DVI before, and once i figured out that it would post after flashing cmos, I had to change to RGB to get any visual. The DVI will not work now at all. I have even tried changing cords. The DVI wont work in safemode either. Thanks

I reckon these mobos have a fault that really needs to be sorted. You say that your PC was working fine using PC 3200 memory with 240's. I have a similliar problem, I am using 246's with Kingston' PC3200 KVR333X72RC25/512D 2.5 ECC REG. The PC worked fine for about two weeks and then one day went on a blink, every time I power it up all I get is beeps. I was forced to order new BIOS, which didn't work everything else has been tested and works fine.
So I ordered micron memory 2X512 PC 2100 266 ECC REG which I was told by the supplier that it was compartible, that didn't work either. I then went on to check the battery, to my surprise the battery was low so I thought I had nailed it, went out bought a new battery but the problem still exits. I must say though after installing the micron memory it did boot up but when I went into BIOS to change settings to boot fro CDROM the damn thing would not restart I had to switch it off using the power button to restart it and when it restarted all i got was beeps. After that to get it to bootup I have to reset CMOS using the jumper and when it boots up it gives a checksum error message. I have a choice of two at this stage
(1) To Press F1
(2) To Press delete o go into BIOS setup
The F1 option takes me as far as the windows log on screen and that's it cuts off as if it is gonna boot itself backup but just hangs there.
The Delete option takes into BIOS which when exited the PC does nothing until powered down and powered up again, from here I have to reset CMOS to get it to bootup.
I have been told that the kingston memory is not compatible but my question is how did it work the first two weeks?
Good ol' Bas have helped out on this one quite often but here I am three months on still in a struggle. I thought of RMAing the board but it would cost me about 160 pounds and with that kind of money I could pick up another boad from kompllete.com and remain with some change for a couple of buds.
"To bass You said in the last post that the poblem could be the power supply changed it but that has not solved my problem"

In need of some help :( p55 big bang fuzion will not post

For some reason my system will not post. i switch my system on and everything on the board lights up all the drives spin up, gpu spins up, but it will still not post iv checked the gpu and it dose work fine, iv checked the ram to find out that one of my ram sticks has gone. iv tired booting with the stick that works with no luck neither.
would really like some advice please
My Current System is : i7 875k [email protected] GHz,on OC Genie- - P55 Big Bang-Fuzion (MS-7582)- -BIOS v1.5 --CORSAIR CMT4GX3M2A2133C9 4GB 2133MHz, 9-10-9-27, 1.65V, with Intel XMP -- NSI R5850 Twin Frozr II-- Real Power M520, with two WD Caviar Black 500 GB SATA Hard Drives ( WD5001AALS) in Raid 0

like Xmad said get a good 600W PSU from a trusted manufacturer of a single +12V kind. split rails are only good when there very high ampage ones (over 30A per rail) and the single rail ones are a better pick all-round!
and like Xmad also pointed out id also recomend a Corsair or seatronic unit of 600W or more!
it doesn't matter how the power went out as any thing that pulls over the load a PSU can supply will fead back and cause damage to the PSU itself!
alot of PSU makers cannot be trusted much as they put lables on the psu that are no where neer the real units performance level as they use a bench version that have uprated VRM's and bigger heatsinks and high end refrigerated coolers to stop them overloading thats totally un-realistic!
