P55-GD65 sound with HT Omega Striker 7.1

mobo = MSI P55-GD65
audio = PCI-e HT Omega Striker 7.1
Win 7 64
Should 9-pin HDAudio/EAR_MIC cable plug into FP Audio connector on Omega Striker sound card, or into JAUD1 connector on mobo?

There is an Intel 9-pin (one no pin) High Def Audio connector linked to the front panel of the case (Antec P183). Case manual says to connect that to the internal audio connector "on motherboard or sound card."
Now that I think about it, connecting to sound card makes most sense; only connect to mobo if no sound card. Guess this is one of those duh... moments - just had to think it through. 
If someone can verify my thinking is correct, I'll just swallow my pride and move on to the next conundrum.
             Thanks!

  • New P55-GD65 System with old already installeWindows 7 doesn't boot, Blue screen

    I just built my new system with these specs
    1. Core i5

    I had a 500gb SATA WD HDD which i used with my old system, with windows 7 ultimate 32bit and windows xp 64bit installed. It was working pretty fine with that system. When i built this new rig, i installed the same HDD with it but wt i now face is that my win7 doesn't boot. Soon after windows 7's logo appears, the system reboots after a short blue screen. On reboot win7 asks for a startup repair . . . when i go for it, it fails to repair. I get the following thing in error;

    Can anybody help me here. I really don't want to go for a fresh installation.

    P.S
    My XP 64bit works pretty fine wid it although some drivers for "SM BUS Controller" and "Base System Cannot" can't be found.. The problem is only wid win7.

    will give a try to install msi drivers using my old system and then connecting the HDD back to this new rig.... Hope it will work...!!!!
    That activity is pointless.  You cannot install drivers for stuff that is not there on your old system.
    Please do yourself a favour and stop dancing around this whole problem (which seems like a pseudo-problem to me).  Putting on a fresh installation of the operating system is the first thing that should be done on a new system configuration.  Even if you manage to get stuff working without reinstalling, you are working with a potential driver mess and a confused Windows Registry that may throw problems at you that you may currently not be an issue.

  • P55-GD65 BSOD With onboard audio enabled

    Hello all,
    I bought a new computer with a P55-GD65 motherboard 2 weeks ago and Im getting a random blue screen when the onboard audio is enabled in the BIOS.
    Im using the latest BIOS version mainboard drivers. Im running a legal version of Windows 7 home premium and installed all updates.
    The blue screen appears in all situations, browsing the internet, playing a game, even when the machine is just turned on and im not working on it.
    Here parts of the latest dump files:
    1. string:SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
    bug check code: 0x0000003b
    caused by driver: win32k.sys
    2. string: KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
    bug check code: 0x0000001e
    caused by driver: ntoskrnl.exe
    II did search a lot for this errors and found no relationship with onboard audio, the weird thing is the BSOD are only happening when onboard audio is enabled on my system.
    Any idea how to fix this, it would be great because the onboard audiocard is working alright with games and teamspeak. I have tried a X-FI Titanium card of Creative that was not working.
    Hope someione can help.
    Kind regards,

    I am not overclocking the system, the BIOS has default values with onboard audio disabled at the moment.
    Now once again the problem:
    If I enable the onboard audio controller the systems crashed with a blue screen. Somethimes it takes an hour, somethimes it crashed within 2 minutes after booting.
    It doesnt matter what Im doing, even when I just startup the machine and aint using it because Im making some cofee its stuck at a blue screen when I come back.
    If I disable the onboard audio controller It does not crash, I can leave the system on all day without a problem.
    Hope someone can help.

  • MSI P55-GD65 - Problem with automatic fan control.

    Hello.
    I wish to share story of my fan speed controller.
    Lately I've upgraded my machine to modern specs (look at signature) and I was quite happy about that.
    It worked flawlessly for about week.
    My H/W Bios settings was - CPU Smart Fan Target = 60°C and minimal fan speed 50%.
    I was amazed how nicely GD65 maintained between heat and speed.
    Yesterday, I've noticed that my fan is really quiet all the time, even when gaming (before it accelerate speed while hardcore gaming settings). I was quite content about that, until my computer crashed due to overheating while playing Battleforge match.
    After reboot I've ran Intel BurnTest and HWmonitor. OH my, what was my surprise when I saw that fan speed is always 50% and do not speeds up when cores are heating up!
    I started to checking things out. What I've discovered:
    -(CPU Smart Fan ON) Fan is always at minimal speed given in BIOS. It doesn't accelerate even if CPU is burning.
    -(CPU Smart Fan ON) Fan speed cannot be controlled by any program (like SpeedFan).
    -(CPU Smart Fan OFF = 100% fan speed) Fan speed CAN be controlled by program like SpeedFan, which saves me from fan buzzing.
    I've try to fix that by:
    -Checking cables.
    -Clearing CMOS.
    -Updating BIOS to 1.6.
    -Praying.
    And still nothing.
    My conclusion:
    Fan speed cannot be change when Smart Fan is on, it locks fan speed at minimal speed given in bios.
    Now I just hoping that this is somehow stock fan fault, new Zalman CNPS 10X QUIET is in delivery.

    No problem here with Target 55° and Speed 37.5%.
    Fan runs at 1330 below 58° and 2050 above which is max.
    The CPU is running at 3050 MHz because of XMP 'overclocking'
    Have reverted to BIOS version 1.3, due to XMP problems with other versions.

  • P55-GD65 Bios Can't Detect Hard Drives

    I can't get my motherboard bios to detect my hard drives (An OCZ Agility SSD and WD Black). My SATA DVD drive is detected properly. I have a Corsair HX850 power supply. My P55-GD65 came with 1.4 Bios.
    I had tried default optimised settings and also having AHCI enabled. I tried different SATA cables as well as SATA power cables.  I tried plugging the hard drives in different SATA slots including the one that worked with the dvd drive. I cleared CMOS. I'm stumped. Should I look into flashing a new bios?

    Use MSI Afterburner and set lower or fixed clocks for the graphics card.Enable Unofficial OVerclocking and set a fixed 2D clock to be applyed at start up ,see what happens.
    Play a little with the 2D/3D clocks.I ve saw somewhere on a forum a issue with a similar mobo from some other vendor and another video card.The problems of that user stopped when he lowered the clocks of the video card.
    You are using a 5770 which does a lot of frequency/voltage switching while in desktop.

  • Problems with MSI P55-GD65

    Hello,
    I purchased an MSI P55-GD65 mobo approximately a month ago and have been having some problems with it. When I first started it, everything turned on fine. I attempted using OC Genie and began to encounter problems restarting the computer. Either the computer would turn on but I would receive a blank black screen and would have to perform a hard shutdown, or the computer would turn on, stay on for 3 seconds, then reboot. I realize the latter problem is an overclocking protection measure. Occasionally the computer would start right off the bat, but this is a rare event. At first I thought this was due to bad overclocking, so I set all BIOS settings to default. It seemed to work fine for a few days, but now I am experiencing these problems with default settings. I am currently testing both sticks of RAM with memtest. During testing of 1 stick, my computer went to a black screen and stopped responding. However, I have been unable to reproduce this effect and so far no errors are being reported. I reseated the CPU to reset my fan, yet the problems began before this. I think it might be the RAM,but I am worried that either I have a short (in which case I wouldn't know how to find it), or I have a damaged motherboard (in which case I am past my RMA date). Any help would be appreciated! Thanks! 

    Hey, thanks for the quick response! I have cleared CMOS and am currently retesting. I will update with further results. Additionally, I forgot 1 more symptom. When the POST screen comes up, it turns into a blank white screen and I have to perform a hard shutdown. This has only happened twice though.

  • P55-GD65 won't boot with OC Genie activated

    I have an P55-GD65 mobo that runs just fine with no problems except when I tried to activate the OC Genie. When I pressed the button and then tried to boot the machine -- it would begin the boot process then reboot over and over again without actually completing the boot process. When I pressed the OC Genie button again to deactivate it -- the machine booted just fine.
    I've got Windows 7 Professional 64 bit installed.
    What is my problem and how do I fix it so the OC Genie works?
    Thanks,
    Crockett

    What is your current BIOS Version?

    What memory frequency, timings and Comman Rate does the BIOS set when everything is set to default (check with CPU-Z)?
    The BIOS has a tendency to automatically set the Command Rate to 1T instead of 2T which causes stability problems in many cases.
    Quote
    If the RAM is running at 1600MHz the OC Genie won't work properly.
    There is a flip site to this kind of observation:  The CPU does not natively support DDR3-1600 and most modules sold as DDR3-1600 are actually just factory overclocked DDR3-1333 modules that require higher than standard voltages settings to have a chance to run stable.  This in itself already is an inherently tricky situation that does not get better when you enable the OC Genie.

  • P55-GD65 USB Audio noise

    I'm receiving noise through speakers from an usb audio device. I tried multiple open USB ports and it's the same thing. The noise stops when I remove the USB cable. This laptop seems to have cleaner audio from the USB port when I test.

    Most Corsairs are Seasonic based so you will need to try a PSU from another manufacturer or a Corsair based on some other electronics.Or Antecs based on Delta Electronics like you can read in the article.
    Sometimes it may happen that some of the high frequency stuff to pass motherboard filtering or devices filtering if they have.There are some cases with some audio codecs doing strange wining sounds with Seasonic power supplyes ,though they are not defective.
    So try something else from some friend see if it helps.
    Or get a Corsair from the nonSeasonic ones ,jonnyguru and some other sites can help you with info like that.
    Audio stuff is just very sensitive to anything 

  • MSI P55 GD65 - BSOD - MEMORY_MANAGEMENT

    I'm facing a weird issue with my pc:
    If I turn on the PC, the system starts up fine, but within 30 secs up to 5 minutes I get a BSOD (usually MEMORY_MANAGEMENT).
    If I then restart the system it will run fine..
    CPU intensive gaming, memory checks, benchmarks, standby and wakeup, all runs fine... after a first BSOD.
    I've tried all kinds of memory settings, but nothing seems to help. Also hard to test if it runs fine after a crash.
    It's almost like the system needs to warm-up a bit and then it will run fine 
    The BSOD message indicates a memory issue, but then I would expect random BSOD, not only right after cold start.
    Any suggestions?

    Status update:
    I've reset the bios to safe defaults.
    Started up memtest86+ and screen turned red rather then blue, so lots of mem-errors.
    Restarted and then memtest ran fine for more then 10 hours.
    Passed 20 times all tests no errors with both Dimms inserted.
    Then I tested cold start with 1 dimm only:
    - with 1 DIMM in slot 3 only system cold-starts fine and memtest runs fine with no errors.
    - with 1 DIMM in slot 1 only system cold-starts fine and memtest starts up but then doesn't even start a test. So it seems to be hanging already.
    Swapping both dimms showed the same result.
    Preliminary conclusion now is a faulty slot 1 
    Does it indeed sound like a slot 1 issue?
    MB is the worst part to RMA, so hopefully I can find a solution.... slot 1 seems not to be completely broken after all.
    PS: increasing to 1.6V I had already tried before without success.

    Tried the ps2 keyboard, still no luck.
    The HDD only has Win 7 on it from when I installed it one of the only times it booted completely. 
    I did notice that when I ran the win 7 system score program, the lowest score was on data transfer with the HDD, but it was only a 5.9 so I figured it was still pretty good.
    Is there anything that would cause the motherboard to not even activate the monitor for a couple of mins?

  • Is my P55-GD65 dead on arrival? No response at all.

    I'm not getting anything out of my new board.  I've built many systems before, but this doesn't seem to be working right.  I've got:
    - power supply connected at both the main power connector and the 8-pin aux power connector
    - CPU installed with fan plugged in
    - 2 DIMS of RAM installed
    - video card installed with PCI power plugged in
    - no front panel connections
    - board is sitting on my table, not in the case
    When I flip on the power switch on the PS, I don't get any LEDs on the board lighting up.  I couldn't find anything in the manual about a power LED except for the 6 CPU voltage phase LEDs across the top of the board, but I don't know if those should be lit without the machine fully on or not.
    Should the power and OC'ing buttons at the bottom be backlit when the machine is off? Shouldn't I be able to use the power button on the board to power up the machine without the front-panel switch?  I get no fans or drives spinning.  Should I be getting any voltage readings from the test pins when the machine is off, or only when running?
    I tried my old power supply with the same results.
    I'm guessing the board will need to be returned, but I just wanted to get a second opinion.

    Thanks for the replies.
    Before I pulled the board out of the case to test it on my table, I did try powering up the system from the front panel power button.  When that didn't work, I removed the board from the case in the event the board was shorting out in the case.
    I'm assuming that the power button on the board itself should work to turn the system on instead of shorting the pins for the front panel button.
    So, on the P55-GD65 specifically, should there be any LEDs lit on the board when the PSU is on, but the computer is powered off?
    Thanks

  • [WTA] MSI P55-GD65 6 phase on all the time? Where's APS?

    Hello, First Post here..
    I bought a MSI P55-GD65 lately and it runs spectacular and overclocks nicely. the newer BIOS 1.6 is noticably more stable when High VDroop is used than the BIOS 1.5, resulting in more power-efficient system of my own despite overclocking  .
    But nonetheless, i have some issues i would like to be answered:
    1. When I use BIOS 1.5, the core voltage would be dropped to 0.896 (CPU-Z) when i set the core voltage as auto and all the power saving features enabled (C1E & EIST Enabled, C6 state selected, Turbo Mode off). but when i flash into BIOS 1.6, the same setting does not result in decreased voltage, the core clock still slows down though like it used to be. Maybe the next revision of BIOS will fix it?
    2. I searched this forum about APS on P55-GD65, i have found that somebody here had testified that the BIOS 1.6 fixes the all-phase-working problem, as i was having the same problem too. Then i decided to flash to 1.6 too (which work flawlessly with your USB Flasher by the way, kudos  ). But the problem still persists. APS only works when i apply through Control Center. i wonder about APS statement of "will work regardless of operating system" is a true and automated one. And yeah, i have tried to clear CMOS and run it on nominal mode and still no changes from BIOS 1.5. The 6 phase LED is lit all the time unless i "apply" in Control Center.
    My Current system are:
    MSI P55-GD65 (Lotes ILM)
    I5 750
    HD 5770
    Silverstone Zeus 750Watt
    WDC Black 500GB
    Windows 7 Ultimate
    Thanks for your attention. 

    Quote from: chrisjb on 19-January-10, 17:13:56
    you have to run the cpu at default settings so (133mhz X multiplier) the slight overclock of the cpu will disable power saving so all the phase leds will constantly be lit up.
    Have the multiplier running at 160 because of XPM 1600 memory blocks, and the board runs with 2/3 phases in normal mode.
    Are using BIOS 1.3 because of XPM problems with other versions.

  • P55-GD65 BSOD Issues, Help very much appreciated!

    Hi Guys,
    I recently bought a new PC with a P55-GD65 motherboard and Im getting a lot of blue screens.
    I started a topic on SevenForums and attached all dump files but it seems the problem is hard to pin down.
    The topic and dump files can be found here: http://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-debugging/48197-please-help-bsod-new-windows-7-x64-pc.html

    On SevenForums I was advised to check my harddrives, I runned HD Tune and my drives showed no errors.
    I was also advised to run memtest, Im running it for over 4.5 hours now without any errors.
    I realy dont know what I can do anymore. Do you guys have any advise what else I can try?
    I have changed nothing in the BIOS itself and Im not overclocking the system.
    Should I manually adjust some settings maybe?

  • P55-GD65 Problem Freezes / Shuts Down unexpextedly

    Hi all,
    I've recently received a replacement P55-GD65 part for my pc upgrade. The first mobo was broken but I'm not sure wether the current one is any better.
    I have a freezing problem with my set up. After I power up it goes to post and lauches windows. However, within 5 to 10 minutes the system just shuts down on its own. Sometimes this happens already in BIOS when I've been looking around for a solution for some time.
    After power down pressing the power button doesn't help. I have to disconnect power cord from PSU and wait a bit before reconnecting for the power button to work again.
    I've been reading other posts and people have the similar problems, but none of the solutions have resolved my problem.
    I've tried putting OC genie on - no solution.
    I've tried using only 1 memory - no solution. and yes I've taken the memories out and reincerted them.
    I've tried setting BIOS to optimized defaults - no solution.
    I've tried setting memory speed down from Geil automatic 1333MHz to 1060MHz - no solution.
    I've tried setting memory voltage up from Geil automatic 1,5V to 1,6V - no solution.
    I've tried taking CPU out and replaced it in the socket - no solution.
    I've updated Intel drivers from MSI website.
    I've updated other drivers from the CD that came with the mobo.
    BIOS version is 1.3
    There has been a lot of discussion about corsair memory modules but none about the GEIL ones I have. Has anyone experience with the memory I have? According to MSI website P55-GD65 is tested with a dual setup of 2g Geil memory that I have, and should be ok.
    Can anyone lend a hand so that I can get my pc running. This has by far been the most troublesome upgrade for me.
    Thanks for replies!
