Problem 880gm-e41 and corsair 1600

Hi to everybody. I just bought a new 880gm-e41 and 6gb (3x2)gb, code name cmx6gx3m3a1600c9.
The problem is that sometimes when i switch off the pc it does not starts again until i not remove a module of ram.
I have made the last bios update and the problem still exists.
The rams did not give me some error with testing softwares.
What can i do more?
Please help :(
Many regards

880GM-E41 and Server 2008 / Windows Home Server 2011

I am building a WHS 2011 machine (which is based on Server 2008) and am considering the 880GM-E41 mainboard. However when I go to the product website:
http://www.msi.com/product/mb/880GM-E41.html
I don't see drivers listed for Server 2008. Specifically, there are chipset, audio, raid (etc) drivers listed for Windows 7 64-bit, but nothing for Windows Server 2008. However in the past I have experienced mainboards which 'just work' regardless of the drivers that are downloadable. My question is... before I purchase this mainboard, does anybody know if the motherboard works on Windows Server 2008? Or which devices/features will not work?
I actually don't require the RAID drivers to work since I won't be using hardware raid, but I will need the system, chipset, and audio drivers working (whether they get pulled from Windows Update or downloaded from MSI).
Thanks!

WHS 2011 is built on the Windows Server 2008 R2 code base, which is built on Windows NT 6.1, the same core operating system used with the end-user oriented Windows 7. So basically, you need to use Windows 7 64bit drivers and everything will be fine.

880GM-E41 And Amd Phenom 840

I am thinking about ordering a http://www.msi.com/product/mb/880GM-E41.html and a AMD phenom II 840(HDX840WFGMBOX) but the 880GM-E41 does not list it under supported cpus but since the 840 a propus die would it work ? will msi release a bios update for proper ID

I have the same CPU in my 890FX-GD70 board, and it works fine and is recognised correctly, despite also not being on the supported list for my board. Should also work in yours too.

Problem with motherboard and cpu cooler

First of all , hello.
Let me present my current pc.
Mainboard - MSI 880GM-E41
CPu - Amd phenom x2 560 black - unlocked to quad
Ram - 4 gb kingmax DDR 3
Video - Gainward GTS 450 512 DDR 5
Hdd - Western Digital 640 GB
Power suply - Sirtech 400 W
Now the problem.I bought a Scythe Katana 3 cooler because i couldnt stand the noise from AMD stock cooler anymore.
The cooler RPM in idle/load / full load is 2800 RPM (maximum !) Shoudnt the mainboard set the cooler's rotation to match the processor current usage ? My cooler stand in maximum rotations every single time.
Note that my temperatures are excelent.
I took a look in Bios and could find much.
H/W Monitor
Cooler - 4 pins selected
Smart fan target - disabled selected.Guess this is the automatic option.I dont wanna set it to manual in order to give some values.
Amd cool and quiet - enabled (tried it with disabled too , same deal)
C1E support - enabled.
Would updating my bios to lasted available solve this problem ? I wanted to do that but i wonder if updating the bios would interfere with my unlock of the processor's cores.
Thanks you very much.

Yes , it is
I dont actualy have an "enabled" option....just disabled or some values.
I heard from a friend that :
Smart Fan Target - the critical temperature from which the fan starts to grow in rotations
Cpu Min.Fan Speed - the desired rotations per minute in idle
Is this correct ?
Im thinking about
First - 45
Second - dont know....i have to test with different values.

Compatibility between MSI i7 boards and Corsair DDR3 RAM kits?

Similar issues from other posters: Thread 1, Thread 2
Are there any known compatibility issues between MSI's Intel i7 boards and Corsair's 1600 DDR3 triple-channel kits?
My brother's machine (which has been discussed here before last time I tried to fix it) is still having trouble, and also uses the same type of RAM as the two threads above. The symptoms are:
1) Occasional lockups, followed by a reboot
2) Inability to POST: the machine will try numerous times, rebooting each time (as in threads 1 and 2), followed (eventually) by the POST saying "the previous overclocking has failed and the BIOS is reset to default settings" - as in thread 1. The machine will then (normally) boot. Reducing the RAM speed increases the chance of a successful boot, but the settings don't stick (presumably they are wiped when the BIOS is reset to the default settings). Cold boots (after the machine has been switched off overnight) tend to be the most likely to fail.
Any ideas what could be causing this, if not an incompatibility with the RAM (in 3-channel mode)? Dropping down to one stick stabilises the system, but at the expense of dropping to a mere 2GB of RAM.

Quote from: HU16E on 06-September-09, 15:10:01
Out of seven MSI X58 boards, none had a problem with Corsair sticks. With the 1600's running at 1066, they should only require default (1.50v) auto voltage. They should also work using settings of 1N 9 9 9 24 without issue. As the CPU IMC only natively supports 800/1066, your particular CPU may have a limitation of working any higher. But, something is not right within the system if it will not run the RAM at 1066. To rule out a bad stick, test with just one in the black A0 slot, & swap it out & test the other two individually. As far as DRAM voltage, if all the sticks check out ok, try raising it to 1.55V. Keep the forum updated on your progress.
Added: Make sure 'Spread Spectrum' is disabled in bios Cell Menu, as well as 'Extreme Memory Profile' if your bios has it listed.
Are they 2GB sticks? (All the threads in question use the 2GB sticks - one 3×, and one 6×)
Back around the time I tried the BIOS flash as the solution, I Memtest86'd each of the sticks individually in the MSI-recommended slot for a single-stick configuration, and each tested perfectly. Part of the advice given at the time was to disable XMP and Spread Spectrum; they already were.
Whilst I can't be certain that the RAM is the problem, at least three threads on this board now are using 2GB Corsair 1600 sticks and having strikingly similar symptoms...
I'll try investigating the voltages later today. Thanks!

PRoblems between audigy2zs and 9800pro drive

I have been having a lot of trouble installing my new sound card into my system. Here is the steps I have taken. I installed windows xp pro w/sp2 integrated. I installed all mobo drivers(the onboard sound is disabled in the bios). I then installed the ATI catalyst driver latest version. Next I installed my sound card and software/driver that came with the soundcard. Now here is my problem, when I hit the equalizer on the creative taskbar(the one on the top of the desktop) it gives me an error message that it cannot find the device that that software operates. Now that doesnt sound like a big deal...but in addition to that it also causes my internet to go offline...the moment I start an application that uses hardware sound acceleration(games). Here is what I have done to try to repair this problem.
) Change the order of items installed. This is where I figured out that it was my catalyst drivers causing the creative software not to work correctly. The creative stuff wroks fine as long as the win xp default software is loaded in for my graphics card. The moment I install the updated graphics driver I loose the graphics equalizer.
2) Change the slot that the sound card is intstalled into. (I have tried them all same result.)
3) Updated drivers from creative.
4) Tried different catalyst drivers.
As a side note the only way I can get the internet to work with games is to disable the sound card in the system control panel...and onboard sound through the bios. Otherwise it will give me the boot everytime.
Also I just wanted to mention that the entire system worked flawlessly before the addition of this card. I was simply unhappy with the quality of my on-board sound. I never had any idea I woul dhave this kind of problems. Here is my system specs.
AMD 2500+Barton
Soyo KT600 Ultra platnum plus
WD 200Gig SATA dri've
gig PC3200 Corsair XMS
Soundblaster audigy2 zs platinum
Hercules prophet 9800Pro
I appreciate any help given with this problem I have never had problems like this and am somewhat lost in what to do. Thanks Ken

well, i have ahn saphire 9800pro and audigy 2 sz platinum and internet cable and never had this kind of problem, try to install the audio card on the last slot.
or try to install xp without the sp or 2.

Does 880GM-E41 support Wake-On-Lan?

I've been through the manual at 880GM-E41:
http://www.msi.com/product/mb/880GM-E41.html
But it makes no mention of supporting Wake-On-Lan. It shows a BIOS picture and support for all other type of wakes, but not Wake-On-Lan. A search of the internet gives inconclusive evidence.
Any feedback appreciated!
Thanks!

Modern mainboards do not have a specific 'Wake on LAN' option in the BIOS.
Most recent MSI boards, including yours, use an integrated Realtek PCI-E network controller. So in BIOS, you need to enable 'Wake on PCI-E', and then configure the driver properties for the network controller in Windows.

Ethernet link between PC and FP 1600

I'm working in a sailing simulator using fieldpoint modules(fp 1600, fp-ao-422, fp-ao-200, fp-ao-100) with labview 6.0. I use Fieldpoint Explorer 3.0. Sometimes, the ethernet link between the PC and FP 1600 is cut without reasons. Why?

Alex,
Are there any other symptoms of your communications problem? Any flashing codes of the status light or something like that?
The cut-off of communications is not normal (obviously). Is there anything unusual about the network setup or cabling?

Random Shut Down on a MSI 880GM-E41

System under discussion
AMD Athlon II x3 450 Regor 3.2 Ghz
MSI 880GM-E41 mainboard
Kingston DDR3 Hyperx/fb 2x2Gb
Seagate Baracuda 160Gb IDE HD
Logisys 480w Power supply
USB mouse
corded keyboard
using onboard video by ATI
I used the search to find random reset posts but they all seemed to be 10 years old.. and none marked solved so here is a fresh question for old timers on the MSI board.
This random shutdown (as described in those old posts) happens with no load on the system except for my always on net connection which does exchange some data.
This MSI board was a (unknown to me at the time) discontinued item from New Egg. It works ok most of the time so I was wondering if there is some software cycle that kicks in. I have no screen savers on or anything else I know of. A defrag monitor is loaded and I use the Comodo firewall system. That's it-- nothing else to tell of interest.

You already have a topic for your issue, no need for another (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=160956.msg1179710#msg1179710) . Besides this board is not ten years old. "Similar issues" that old are irrelevant.

Problem with JPanel and/or Thread

Hello all,
I have the following problem.
I have a JFrame containing to JPanels. The JPanels are placed
via BorderLayout.
JPanel #1 is for moving a little rectangle (setDoubleBufferd), it is
a self defined object extending JPanel.
The paint methon in JPanel #1 has been overwritten to do the drawings.
JPanel #2 contains 4 JButtons, but they have no effect at the
moment. It is an "original" JPanel.
The class extending JFrame implemented the interface Runnable and
is started in its own thread.
After starting the programm everthing looks fine.
But if I press a Button in the second JPanel this button is painted in
the top left corner of my frame. It changes if I press another button.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Ralf

I noticed you solved this by painting the whole JFrame.
Yeh Form time to time I get this problem too......
Especially if the screen has gone blank - by going and having a cup of tea etc -
Text from one Panel would be drawn in another.. annoying
At first it was because I changed the state of some Swing Components
not from the Event Thread.
So make sure that your new Thread doesn't just blithely call repaint() or such like cos that leads to problems
but rather something like
SwingUtilities.invokeLater( new Runnable()
public void run()
MyComponent.repaint();
});However I still get this problem using JScrollPanes, and was able to fix it by using the slower backing store method for the JScrollPane
I could not see from my code how something on one JPanel can get drawn on another JPanel but it was happening.
Anyone who could totally enlighten me on this?

Problem with JFrame and busy/wait Cursor

Hi -- I'm trying to set a JFrame's cursor to be the busy cursor,
for the duration of some operation (usually just a few seconds).
I can get it to work in some situations, but not others.
Timing does seem to be an issue.
There are thousands of posts on the BugParade, but
in general Sun indicates this is not a bug. I just need
a work-around.
I've written a test program below to demonstrate the problem.
I have the problem on Solaris, running with both J2SE 1.3 and 1.4.
I have not tested on Windows yet.
When you run the following code, three JFrames will be opened,
each with the same 5 buttons. The first "F1" listens to its own
buttons, and works fine. The other two (F2 and F3) listen
to each other's buttons.
The "BUSY" button simply sets the cursor on its listener
to the busy cursor. The "DONE" button sets it to the
default cursor. These work fine.
The "SLEEP" button sets the cursor, sleeps for 3 seconds,
and sets it back. This does not work.
The "INVOKE LATER" button does the same thing,
except is uses invokeLater to sleep and set the
cursor back. This also does not work.
The "DELAY" button sleeps for 3 seconds (giving you
time to move the mouse into the other (listerner's)
window, and then it behaves just like the "SLEEP"
button. This works.
Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

f3.addListeners (f2); // 3 listens to 2

I've had the same problems with cursors and repaints in a swing application, and I was thinking of if I could use invokeLater, but I never got that far with it.
I still believe you would need a thread for the time consuming task, and that invokeLater is something you only need to use in a thread different from the event thread.

Problem with installing and running some applications or drivers

When installing and installing some items, towards the end of the installation I get this message:
/System/Library/Extensions/comcy_driver_USBDevice.kext
*was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact product's vendor for update*
The end result is that some things do not seem to work properly, such as my HP printer. Would anybody have any ideas on how to fix this problem?

Thank you for your response. Originally, I had a problem with Airport and ended up reinstalling Snow Leopard. Since then, when downloading upgrades etc, such as HP printer drivers, iTunes etc., towards the end of the download when its running the script, I get this message: /System/Library/Extensions/comcy_driver_USBDevice.kext
+was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact product's vendor for update+
Sometimes, the download hangs and is unable to complete. The main problem I've encountered so far with an application is when I use the printer to scan an image via Preview, it's blank: there's nothing there.

Problem with JNI and Tomcat (and threads???)

Howdy,
Here is the issue - I would like some help on HOW to debug and fix this problem:
2 test use cases -
1)
a)User goes to Login.jsp, enters user and password
b) User submits to LoginServlet
c) login calls JNI code that connects to a powerbuilder(Yes I know this is ugly) PBNI code module (this is a .dll) that authenticates the user with the database
d) the servlet then redirects to another .jsp page
e) user then submits to LogoutServlet - also a JNI call to a powerbuilder PBNI code module
f) REPEAT STEPS a-e over a few times (inconsistent) and then the call to the JNI code hangs
2)
a) users does NOT goto Login.jsp, but rather calls LoginServlet and passes the userid and password as GET parms
b) user does NOT get redirected to a page (redirect code commented out)
c) user calls LogoutServlet
d) repeat steps a-c at will and no failure, no hanging
The only difference is that in case 1 (with JSP), there is a redirect and it afffected the JNI call by haniging inside JNI code.
In case 2 (without JSP) there is still a JNI call, but it does not hang. In addition, when it hangs and I stop Tomcat, the logs show cleanup entries that say:
Oct 19, 2004 9:17:09 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper unload
INFO: Waiting for 1 instance(s) to be deallocated
Oct 19, 2004 9:17:10 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper unload
INFO: Waiting for 1 instance(s) to be deallocated
Oct 19, 2004 9:17:11 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper unload
INFO: Waiting for 1 instance(s) to be deallocated
Is this a threading issue in Tomcat???
On would assume that the JNI code is not cleaning up after itself, but I don't believe this is the case,
and even if it was, why would I get the tomcat log cleanup entries above???
What do those cleanup entries imply about the state of Tomcat????

hi ,
I met the same problem this morning, and searched the www.google.com in order to solve it, as a result, your article was shown on my screen. :)
Till now I have read some technical information and solved my problems. Maybe the solution be useful to you:
==============================
error message : (Environment : Tomcat 5, Windows 2003, Mysql5)
2006-3-29 11:53:48 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper unload

==============================
cause: the number of connection to database exceeded.another word,too many connections.
==============================
solution: close the connection when it becomes useless for your program. :)
