Problem with Stock A64 HSF and MSI K8N FSR

Hey guys I was wonderinf if anyone could help me with this little problem.
My stock A64 2800+ (newcastle) hsf no longer spins higher than 3500rpm anymore. I first bought my system about 3 months ago and paired it with the msi k8n fsr board. Everything was working fine and under heavy load playing games the hsf would spin to a loud (but effective) 5500rpm max (as measured by speedfan).
About a month ago I managed to kill my k8n board and got a replacement one. Now after setting everything back up, my hsf no longer spins any faster than 3500rpm, regardless if i turn my fan up to 100% in speedfan or run games for hours.
Anyone have a clue?
My specs:
A64 2800+ @ 2.16Ghz (newcastle core)
MSI K8N FSR
1 Gig DDR3200 (generic)
Leadtek Geforce 6600GT

this may sound weird but sometimes i like to return my bios to version 1.3 or below... i want to hear my cpu fan roar! eventhough the reading is high with the old bios, atleast now i'm sure that my CPU is cool... cooler if my CPU fan is on high speed.
hope msi can make a bios update where the user can manually adjust the fan speed to its max... (its true max speed) unlike right now which the max speed only reaches 3000 rpm but its capable of running 5500 rpm.
pray... pray... pray... Lord please have MSI hear my prayers.

  • Problems with Z68a-gd55 g3 and msi 660 gtx oc ed.

    Bought the 660gtx card last week and have been pulling my hair since.. been getting the no post problem with the new card as some other ppl here I see.
    from what I gather it's a bios update which is making the combo of these cards to work properly the msi liveupdate took me up to n.70 and that didn't help after reading a couple of posts here i found out about the beta updates for my bios.
    Beeing a bit new when it comes to flashing I thought I'd make myself sure at what update to use.
    In another post the tip was using .n88 is it still the best to use?

    yes it's sandy bridge however I seem to do something wrong with the bios update. using the MSI Forum HQ USB Flashing Tool and ran it got the .n88 on there set the bios to boot from it, got a press any key to boot from usb key then it shoot directly to win logo and starts windows.
    Running the usb flashing tool program again and it says I got the BIOS Version: VN.8B8 (aka Version: V23.8B8) and a restart later it reverts back to BIOS Version: VN.7 (aka Version: V23.7)
    First time I shut down windows after it started and did a clearcmos.
    I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong.
    Might as well post my system while I'm at it.
    System is:
    MSI Z68A-GD55 G3
    Intel core I5 1155
    2x4gb Corsair DDR3 1600
    MSI Geforce 660GTX 2GB Twin frozr
    320GB WD Caviar
    Fractal design Newton R2 650W Modular
    almost forgot second time I tried I updates as before and didn't do a clearcmos just turned off the computer plugged the 660 gtx in and started this time I got 2 beeps from mainboard then nothing. then silence for a while then two beeps again until I turned off the computer put my old 250 gts back in and the bois had reverted back to VN.7 again.
    without the update and the 660 gtx the update fans  running hd runs a bit then nothing btw.

  • Problem with SATA hard discs and MSI motherboards (could it be the SATA cable)

    I have two systems with a Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3250620AS 250GB Serial ATA (3.0Gb/s)
    hard disk.
    One system has a P965 Neo and the other has a PN6 SLI motherboard.
    I am having issues in that the OS seems to install properly but after a few days the users gets on hd type problems.
    One users workstation the hard drive would not boot. Tried everything to get it to work from F8 but it would get stuck in the window flash screen with the bottom moving accross the screen.
    The other just kept giving the user disk type errors with blue screens.
    I since have replaced P965 mobos hd with a pata. Its only been running for a day not sure if that solved it.
    The other machine I put the drive into another machine I was building and it found errors and fixed them and booted up. This same hd would not work at all in the prior system so I am RMAing that board. Even a PATA would not finish xp installation with that MOBO.
    I am not sure but I have a feeling that the SATA cables may be the cause of this type of problem. These are SATA2 drives. I tend to think you have to use better quality drive cables when using these.
    Those things are so flimsy as they are. I think some cables are better then others. Whos the idiot that designed those things?
    MSI only gives you one sata cable. My dvd uses one as well.
    Has anyone else had issues using the newer faster drives?
    I build a lot of machines but have only been building SATA drives for the past 6 months. These are the first to use this seagate 16 mb drive. When SATA first came out I had these types of issues so avoided using them for over a year. Now I would like to continue using them. But these cables appear to have connection issues.

    Its happening to two different computers with 2 alike drives. I have 2 other drives not even opened yet. It does appear to be a cable issue however, I don't think I will take the chance and keep the 2 unopened drives as that would be even more risky. I am already stuck with 2.
    These drives seem to be very fast at least. But those cheap sata cables are not too comforting.

  • Problems with Cool N Quiet and MSI Live Update

    Hi
    I have had my K8T NEO FISR2 motherboard for a year and  generally I have been very happy with it. However, I have just installed Full Spectrum Warrior (about 3 weeks ago ) and Nortons Internet Suite 2005 and both installations resulted in the same error message when I boot up.
    The error message is that MSI Live Update isn't started up, and also that Cool N quite is not supported on my motherboard which is obviously rubbish.
    I have done a complete re-install of the Live Update and Cool N quite and that fixes it, and then it seems to come back a day later.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    Thankyou for your help

    I stopped using the MSI software completely.  Also got lots of troubles with it.  MSi Live Update for example stops the audio drivers working while checking their revision and so on, so my advice is to use it only if needed once in a while and not loading it together with Windows.

  • Problem with Dual Core Center and MSI 3870

    Hello again, my previous thread is this:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=113164.0
    The VGA works well, the problem is that AFTER i installed it the Dual Core Center stoped to work!!
    Installed the dotnetfix again but no avail, still doesn't work.
    And i know that happened after installed the VGA, so i believe that must be part of the problem.
    Thanks!

    Try the latest version of Dual Core Center.

  • Problems with new A64 system

    Hello!
    I´ve finally got my new system... and some problems:
    A64 3200+CG
    MSI K8N Neo platinum
    OCZ EL DDR PC-3200 Platinum Limited Edition 512MB CL 2-2-2-7 1T
    Nexus 400W
    Hitachi SATA 160 GB
    First of all my system wont start with my Sparkle GeForce 4 ti4200 card.. When i put the power on the fans barely starts rotating and the system just shuts down..
    When i switch video card to my (very) old GeForce 2 GTS the system boots up just fine..
    I have even tried to disconnect all the chassis fans and cd drives but it still wont boot.. I have tried the 1.3 bios too with no success  
    My ethernet controller wont work either.. weird because the first 2 days it did.. but all of a sudden it couldnt connect to internet.. so im using my old PCI ethernet controller.. ive tried to re install the drivers but it doenst help..
    Maybe my motherboard isn´t allrigt?
    i would appreciate some help =)

    If your PS is like mine, each 12V Line has the rated amps on each. Say, each has 28amps being powered to it, not divided betwen them.
    Not knowing your set-up, try running your CPU, CPU fan on one line, and the HD and your other stuff and your case fans on the other, or try some other combinations.
    If your main peripherials are on the same line as your cpu, this could be too much of a drain on the on line at start-up.
    Just a thought.
    Good Luck!

  • 101 Problems with my iPod Touch and iTunes...Almost

    It really feels like I have 101 problems with my iPod touch and iTunes.
    For some time now my iPod Touch have been using alot of batterypower and the battery is often discharged very fast. It discharges alot faster now than when I brought the Touch.
    Also when I plug the iPod Touch to my computer it doesn't charge, it does the oposite of that, it's disharges and it does that ALOT faster than normal
    There is also a problem regarding connecting the iPod Touch to iTunes. It doesn't connect to iTunes directly after I have plugged it in. It feels really random and it lives it own life it seems like.
    If I accomplish to connect ut to iTunes it doesn't sync every single time. The computer / iPod Touch hangs and nothing happens. Soemtimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, like I said before - It feels really random!
    Now to a BBIIGG problem. A week ago my girlfriend changed my password on my iPod Touch. When she typed the password into the login screen, it failed, she had forgotten the password / she thought that she picked that password when she changed it. Anywho, I didn't panic becuase I knew that I could lock it up by iTunes.
    But, iTunes gives me a error while trying to restore the iPod Touch saying that there is no update avaiable and after that nothing happens. I tried to do the Sleep / Power + Home trick to set the iPod Touch into a recovery mode but iTunes gave me a unknown error.
    I tried to update iTunes from my version to the new 8.0 version but when I do so it gives me a error saying that iTunes.msi can not be found and it can't uninstall the previous version :S
    So, now I have a unusable iPod Touch, I can't do nothing with it.
    Like I said, It's really feels like I have 101 problems ;D.
    Lucky I have my old iPod so I can listen to Music :P

    Are you running windows xp or vista? I know the solution for vista but not for xp. My mate had the same problem but he has a vista.
    Let me know what you are running.

    I had a major problem with my PC yesterday, and subsequently had to reload Mozilla Foxfire. When reloaded, it opened with "Welcome to AOL - Mozilla Foxfire". I don't want AOL associated or tagged with Foxfire. I went in to "Programs and Files" and deleted everything with AOL, including Quicktime. Tried loading Foxfire again, but it still opened with AOL tagged. I do use AOL for emails and some browsing, but I want to use Foxfire soley for browsing and search engine. And yes, I did also reload AOL. Can't seem to figure out why AOL is tagging onto Foxfire. Hopefully I have not lost all of my Foxfire Bookmarks - that would really suck.

    After having yet another problem with my MacBook Pro and having to wipe the drive, I am now unable to sync my iPhones etc without erasing all the music on them. Is there a way around this? I have no other library!
    iTunes is a mess! It couldn't find it's own libraries and I was forced to create a new one. Now I don't know where my music is or if any's missing.

    It's not crap at all.
    It's not that simple. For example, I've 3500 songs on my MacBook but don't want them all on my phone, so I have to manually select each song again???
    There has to be a solution.
    Why not simply make a playlist with the songs you want on the iPhone?
    and maintain a current backup of your computer.

    I tried downloading a free app and it asked for my billing information and when I entered it, it said that there was a billing problem with a previous purchase and I have to update it. I keep updating it and it wont let me verify it and I cant get any apps even if they are free, and I just Deleted some apps to make room for my new upate!

    The message says: "The payment method has been denied, try another method"
    I'm living in the same country and city since I was born, so I don't think the location is the problem.
    And yes, I paid with the card a meal in Burguer King today. And nothing more.
