Poor sound on a MSI MEGA 651 with realtek acl650

Good afternoon,
I am trying to bulid a MCE pc on a MSI MEGA 651.
I am having problems with the sound.
I have download the latest drivers from Realtek and even thought my MSI is producing terible sound when connected to my HIFI appliance.
Added to that my rear right speaker is too low.
I am using the analog 5.1 outputs from the box.
Any proposals ?
Thanks
Elias

What xmad is trying to get as information is the 'complete' name of the mainboard. Z87m is not good enough. Also, more information about the other systems components including specifics of the RAM, brand, rated speed, and the PSU brand and description. For now, test with just a single RAM stick.

  • MSI MEGA 533 with FM Radio won't connect on USB! Brand new from a box !!!

    hello,
    i'm having trouble connecting MSI MEGA 533 with FM Radio, on usb port on my computer.
    I've tried to connect it on USB 2.0 port on laptop and desktop computer, with MS Windows XP SP2 installed, nothing happens. When I start player it works like a charm, i can listen to radio stations, record radio station, and record voice, but when i try to connect it to USB via cable from a box nothing happens.
    I've tried to downgrade it to firmware version from cd, with a standard procedure, hold play button, start download software, connect via usb cable, and the player is not detected by computer.
    PLEASE if there is a way you can help post your reply as soon as possible.
    Thanks

    Hi gagac
    Try uninstalling the current driver on your computer and download the following driver.
    http://rapidshare.de/files/20262928/MS5533.zip.html
    This driver is a backup copy that I uploaded on rapidshare from my Original CD Rom that came with my player & I know that it works with firmware v1.00.06. 
    What I find is unusual is that you got firmware v1.00.06 on your player straight out of the box as it usually comes with v1.00.01 or v1.00.02. 
    If the above driver doesn't work, and since that you have Windows XP, you may want to try upgrading to firmware v2.00.02. NOTE: You will need to also download driver v1.672 from the MSI Website as this is the only driver that works with v2.00.02.   
    CARE: You may want to read the below topic first before upgrading to v2.00.02 as there have been some issues concerning driver v1.672 & v2.00.02.

  • MSI Mega 651 6 ch audio

    hi there,
    I've got a Mega 651, could anyone please tell me how to get the most out of the 6 channel built in audio features ???? Can't find much in the manual, do I have to buy another sound proceesor to get 5.1 ????
    Please help ?

    the ports on the mega 651 are colour coded the same as in the diagram in the configuration utility
    what you'll find on some 5.1 speaker setups is that the actual colour on the plugs is different.
    for example on my creative speakers:
    GREEN = Front (connect to green plug)
    BLACK = Rear (connect to blue plug)
    ORANGE= Sub/Centre (connect to pink plug)
    most motherboards with 5.1 sound do it this way to save on space, some give you an optional s-bracket with the ports for the centre and rear speakers - the only disadvantage is you lose the line-in and mic ports (however the mic in is on the front of the mega pc under the flap)

  • New MSI Mega 651 Power Supply

    I want a new power supply for my 651 and after reading these forums I have found out that the only way to get out of the box compatable one is to order from MSI.  Of course it isnt on their online store so I am trying to call the US headquarters and pressing 1 for sales.  I have been trying for DAYS with no luck, always all operators are busy and the 2 times I kept pressing 1 for over an hour when it was finally answered they just hung up without saying a word.  Is there a trick to contacting them or should I be calling someone else?

    you're right! that email addy is hard to find!
    i suppose you could fill in the online tech support form here:
    http://www.msicomputer.com/msiforms/c_problem_desc_form2.asp
    and explain that you'd like to purchase a new PSU, maybe they will respond that way

  • My iphone5s continually drops calls and has very poor sound for callers sooo disappointed compared with iPhone 4 from which I've just upgrade

    I am so disappointed as my iPhone 5 s is very poor for calls and repeatedly drops calls. I've contacted Orange and done a reset to factory settings with no improvement.These calls are to landlines. My iphone4 was excellent in comparison . I've requested an Apple support call tomorrow - any other suggestions  or similar experiences? Call bars are much lower too on this new phone and wifi fails too with frequent fail to connect to server messages. I so regret having this phone..

    I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
    The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
    if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
    Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
    turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

  • MSI MEGA 651 - XP pro install

    Hi All
    I've just bought a 651 and am trying to install Windows XP pro. I can boot from the CD. Setup goes through normal Windows setup, then 'setup is loading files', 'setup is starting Windows', then to set up Windows XP now, pres ENTER. I press enter and get to EULA.
    If I press F8 here nothing happens! Page up/page down and esc all working but as I say F8 does nothing.
    Any ideas what is going wrong? What could I check?
    Any help appreciated.

  • Mega 651 with 7600gs graphic problem...

    after some research in the forum i finally decided to get myself upgrade for gigabyte 7600gs agp and 1 gb ddr pc3200(2x512mb elixir pair match)...
    here is the problem comes... the card work flawless in window (even in windows vista RC2 with AERO)... but when come to gaming, it starts giving Visual artifacts after few minutes of game loads (every game that i had, HL2, warhammer 40k, NFS:MW... start off fine but only for 1~2 mins before the game crashes) , i never had any problem with my old FX5200 with these games.
    my PSU was fsp250-60ms (replacement of  my original 1), and as far as i know 7600gs consume less power than 6600gt so i assume the power requirement isn't the issue... to proof that, i even connect the card with a spare PSU i had externally and the problem remains. i even disable AGP fast write and increase AGP appreture to 256 in bios option... memory CAS is set to 2.5T
    please i need help....

    thanks for the fast reply guys...
    to Stu: i would do if i could, unfortunately most of my friend owns laptops, even those with desktop they uses PCI-e, they keep teasing me about my upgrade now...
    to Kane81: i have a blower sitting beside the card and when i do the test i take the case off... i had my pc on for hours (watching movies, some office work etc) without problem...
    i browse through Nvidia forum and found that there is some compatibility issue between SIS base board with 6600gt agp (artifacts, ramdom crashes... similiar to my case)... thus i tried the methods provided by them (upgrading agp driver, disable fastwrite etc) and still doesn't help... 
    any other have experiance like this before with  6600gt in their megapc series? if do, how would you solve this matter... ur experiance might be valuable to me... please help....
    p/s: i got my card (brand New) from ebay (i check the box, is never been open, never been used before when i receive it), is there anyway to contact gigabyte about the warranty issue?

  • MSI Z87m problems with Realtek install

    I cannot install Realtek drivers with this motherboard. Brand-new system with Windows 7. Intel I5 CPU, gigabyte gtx 780, 8 GB ram. All drivers updated, win 7 updated.
    I have tried the drivers from the included disc and also direct from Realtek site. They will install but they will not work. Red Cross shows up on the volume icon anytime I try to open audio.
    I have even tried reinstalling the OS twice. Makes no difference.
    I tried installing the Realtek drivers from SafeBoot. I just get an error message.
    Creative Sound Blaster cinema will also not work because the RealTek drivers don't work.
    I have read a few other posts of people having this exact same problem with this motherboard and Realtek drivers.
    The windows HD audio will work.
    Right clicking on Realtek properties in device manager shows everything is working fine, even though it isn't.
    I have also had problems when booting into the bios. If I try to change anything, like a fan setting, and then try to save and exit, the system freezes. I had to CMOS once already. Pc also freezes in the bios when trying to access the hardware Monitor option, requiring a reboot. The other options work fine.
    I've written to MSI about this problem but I was hoping somebody might have an idea of what I could try before I take the system back to the store for them to check it and replace the motherboard, as I will then be without the PC for a week.

    What xmad is trying to get as information is the 'complete' name of the mainboard. Z87m is not good enough.

  • Terrible sound for new Windows 7 Computer with Realtek HD driver.

    I just recently purchased a new HP Pavilion 6230 and it has terrible sound with Windows 7 64 bit. I unistalled the realtek driver and installed realtek's latest driver and to no avail, the sound did not improve. I have searched the internet all over for a solution but there doesn't appear to be one. I believe realtek better take a look at this, or their going to have a nasty backlash on their hands from thousands of consumers, not to mention the manufacturers of the computers which put in the realtek products in the first place.

    I had a similar problem with my Slimline s5330la with Win7.  It started as soon as I took it out of the box.  Any media file sounds distorted with a very annoying intermitent "buzz".  Updating the BIOS (to V5.07) and reinstalling the Realtek HD Audio driver didn't help.  HP support changed the machine (it was 2 days old) and sent me a brand new one........with the SAME problem!!!!!!  I just installed it and it has the same distortion.  I've been on the phone with HP support and they have no clue on what is happening. 
    I suspected that it was not a "sound" problem since when a song is being played with the HP MediaSmart program and the title of the song appears on the screen, the name of the song "jumps" and "freezes" at the same time as the distortion appears as if the machine got some kind of interference.
    After checking the latency of my PC with "DCP Latency Checker" (www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml) I realized that the problem was not the sound driver but the wireless driver.  
    Disabiling the 802.11n Wireless PCI Express Card Lan Adapter "corrects" the problem.  This was not a solution given what without that driver you are off-line! However, at least it is more clear what the problem was.  
    I had version 3.0.1.0 (19/05/2009) of the driver by Ralink Technology.  
    HP has no updated driver for that component on their website but I found newer driver on RALINKTECH web.
    I downloaded the 3.1.0.0 version from www.ralinktech.com.   Installed it and the problem was solved.
    Good luck.

  • Problems With MSI Mega PC 651

    Hi everyone!
    I have a problem with a barebone MSI Mega 651 rev 1 (MS 6251).
    It works as a computer system only and don't work as hi-fi system.
    I wrote a message about this problem to mr Kuchinsky (He is a moderator of Russian MSI site) and he told me to read
    this topics - https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=74625.0
    As he said to me I had read this topic and as I understood, the problem is in a damaged firmware aka "bluebird"
    but I'd found only the way to restore this function on Mega 180 or Mega 865, but I didn't found a link to a firmware for 651 series..
    Can anybody help me?
    Best regards!!!
    P.S.
    Sorry about my english )
       

    Thanx a lot
    I found bluebird )))

  • Mobile INTEL CPU supported in MEGA 651 ?

    Hello,
    will it be possible to insert a Mobile INTEL CPU, i.e. Mobile Intel® Celeron® processors, SL6VH, 1.3V, 1.80 GHz, 400MHz, 478pin PPGA, in the MSI MEGA 651 ?
    I t seems the socket and the bus speed is ok.
    But will the BIOS support this kind of CPU ?
    Thanks for help.
    Regards Bernd.   

    I ve got an 1,7 Ghz Mobile Pentium 4-M in my Mega 651, it definitly runs cooler then my older 1,7 Ghz Celeron, wich had 128 kb cach, not like pentium 4M wich has 4 times more cach (512 kb). Without modding the CPU, it runs at 1,5 (1,48) volt. Making the "bent pin trick" it runs on an extremly low volt - 1,08 (1,10) volt. This means lower heat output, then it's rated 30 Watt (wich it has at 1,3 volt, and 1,7 Ghz). The CPU now runs at 1,2 Ghz. At 1,1 volt I can overclock it to 1440 Mhz, but it runs safe, only at 1404 Mhz (at 4x117 mhz fsb). At 1404 Mhz I can even look at High definition video with PowerDVD. I also tried the 133 fsb trick, , isolating the Pin AD6 with nail polish, and it works fine at 1,48 volt and 1596 Mhz, and overclocked even at 1,7 ghz (142 Mhz fsb). But of course in this case the processor generates more heat. At 1200 MHZ it works without turning on the CPU fan, wich turns on only after hevy cpu loads (for example looking on DVD-s) You can browse the internet without the fan would turn on - you can hear only the sound of the hard disk, and the psu fan. I have got only one tiny problem, somtimes when I turn on my PC, after booting, the cpu fan does not stops, I dont know why, and it runs constantly, until I stop with Speedfan. I dont know why is doing this. Not allways, only sometimes, and I cant find out why...

  • Can anyone help? Hibernating Mega 651 (fao Stu Online)

    Hi All,
    I'm new to this forum as I've only just found it existed!
    I have finally built my Mega PC 651 (the orange and silver one).
    Huge amounts of stress building it with temperature issues, noise, and OS problems.
    I thought it would be easy using all MSI equipment to ensure compatability, but not so. Win XP caused huge problems with the MSI DR16 B DVD writer (not refreshing drive info and no access) so went back to using Win 2k. Also MSI Live updates stopped my MSI nVidia Personal Cinema working (nvarem.exe problem).
    Anyway got it all working, apart from the hibernate function.
    I have enabled it on Windows 2000 Power Options menu and gone into the bios and change the power button function to 'suspend'.
    When I press the power button now windows starts hibernation then everying goes off but the 651 just reboots. Sometimes it does hibernate but mostly it reboots.
    Also after awaking from hibernation windows displays a warnig that usb device has been unplugged without stopping, I assume this is to do with the card reader on the Mega.
    Anyone know how to sort this?
    Many thanks,

    My MEGA 651 had the same symptoms :] , I though that it was due to the PSU, so I connected it (with some modifications) to a new 400W PSU. Now the PC switches on sometimes, but when I switch it off it won't switch on again immediately, you need to wait for several minutes. Now I am inclined to think that the problem is with the motherboard, which means that 651 is going to a dump soon :(
