Some games you have to wait till you are playing the game till you can let off. Hope this helps.
thanks, what a performance though! ive been advised by another guy to try updating mother brd drives so im gonna do that 1st, but as the pc is not at my location ( i built it for someone else)i cant get to it till week end. thanks anyway will bare ur info in mind

  • Problem : MSI Motherboard PM8M3-V and RAM 2 GB

    Hi all,
    I am having a problem with my motherboard PM8M3-V and 2 Kingston 400 Mhz(1GB) 2.6v.
    When I was using with 1GB memory ( 2x512 Kingston 400 Mhz 2.6v), it was working well. After I have extended to 2 GB(Put 1 more GB), it is restarting automatically (with blue screen) when the computer is a little busy. I have tested with both Windows XP and Windows 7. Both having same problem.
    Please kindly answered me....
    Can it be motherboard problem(MSI supports till 2GB) ?
    Thanks

    What about the memory voltage option? [2.6/2.65/2.7V?]
    But it works fine with memory clock set to 166Mhz

  • Well, some minor problems with my GF4ti 4800

    Hello
    I have some problems with my Geforce 4 MX 440 - 8X. I updated all of my drivers and tried evreything.I have no problems playing games using this card. Everything is perfect. But then, when I enter the MSI 3D!Turbo Experience, the program will encounter some problems and will be closed. If I go to the display propeties and enter either MSI information or MSI Clock, again it will be closed due to errors. I don't think that this is the problem with my motherboard because if the motherboard is faulty, it wouldn't work with any GPU in the first place. I really want to rectify this problem so that I can tweak my card to the fullest ( or maybe this card is a total piece of crap). The following is the specification of my system
    Pentium 4 2.4 B ( 533 Mhz FSB)
    Asus P4S8X motherboard
    Kingston 512 MB PC 2700 DDR ram
    Maxtor 40 GB Diamond Max plus 8 HDD
    MSI Geforce 4 MX 440 T8x ( ms8890)
    Creative Sound blaster Live 5.1 SE
    Samsung DVD rom
    Imation CDRW
    a 400 W PSU casing
    * I also have a MSI Geforce f Ti 4800. It also has the same problem. These cards would work perfectly on another comp of mine. *
    Help would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
    Chang K.L.

    i just bought this card
    i formatted my harddrive
    reinstalled winxp pro updated to service pack 1
    and installed cumultive patch for internet explorer
    when i try to click on the tabs "MSI information" & "MSI clock"
    i always get a rundll32.exe error
    also MSI 3D!Turbo Experience crashes internet explorer
    with an error

    Whats your BIOS version?
    The Q8400 is supported from 1.3, could be you still have 1.0 and thus the cpu is not fully supported yet.
    If so, flash to latest BIOS and see if the resolves the problem.

    please help me
    can' i restore previous bios ? n' which vesion is perfect ?

     Do not use Live Update for updating BIOS. Download the BIOS that you had before. If you don't remember or know what it was then look at the BIOS chip, number on the sticker is original BIOS version from the factory.
     Flash back to the BIOS that worked. Download the BIOS from here:

  • Possible Motherboard Problem (MSI K7T266)

    Last year I won a MSI K7T266 motherboard and AMD Athlon 1800 from the AMD extreme performance giveaway.  I build a system and everything was fine until two months ago.  I started to get the blue screen of death while running Windows 2000 Pro.  I figured out that one of my three sticks of 2100 DDR RAM has gone bad by removing them one by one until the computer was semi-stable.  Without the bad stick of RAM the computer boots and allows Windows to load.  The problems started again when a program would cause an “illegal operation” the computer would restart.  The computer is now to the point where it will not load Windows correctly 90% of the time.  The computer boots past BIOS and then starts loading Windows.  At the welcome screen there is a short pause, and then the power to the motherboard flicks off and it starts over.  This will go around and around until Windows finally loads completely or I get sick of it and turn the power off.  My problem is that I’m not sure what component is causing the problem.  Does this sound like a motherboard, RAM or processor problem?  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  • New builder with a problem-MSI FM2-A85XA-G65-Corsair400R Case

    I am a first time builder and I am having a bit of a problem with the front panel connections. My mother board came with adapters for the JFP1 and JFP2 on the MOBO so I can connect to the adapters and then to the motherboard.
    My motherboard manual said most of the front panel connectors would connect to JFP1.
    Connected to the JFP1
    HDDLED
    Power Switch
    Reset Switch
    The adapter has left 2 pins FP PWR/SLP
    I have left 2 single wires +PLED and a -PLED
    The JFP2 has a S LED and a PLED
    I am a bit lost here these are the last of the wires I need to connect and it doesn't seem very intuitive to me at all. I might have to post pictures because my motherboard manual is confusing me on this one.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    MSI FM2-A85XA-G65 is the motherboard.

    Quote from: NewGuy2 on 08-May-13, 10:51:15
    Thanks for the help.  Why wouldn't the m connector have it labeled PLED?  They label it FP PWR/SLP.  The manual clearly shows pins 2 and 4 I got that.  The labeling on the m connector through me off.
     I see that now going thru a bag I have with some of those M-connectors. Those are the 2 pins to use for the PLED. If the LED doesn't light up connected one way on those pins then simply reverse the 2 wires and then it will light up when power is on. If you connect them the wrong way 1st time around and it doesn't light up it won't damage anything by the way.

  • Problems MSI GeForceFX 5950 Ultra

    Problem - Some freaking FPS slowdown on any game with any video quality settings (battlefield, farcry, doom3, Wining Eleven 7, Need for Speed Underground, Unreal 2004, Jedi Academy and others).
    What I already have checked - I just got my new video card, msi geforcefx 5950 ultra, and i got some minor stability problems. First of all I would like to say that I'm no newbie and I already checked:
    1. I got all lastest bios and drivers: from my MOBO chipset (nforce2) and video card (from the MSI site, not from the nvidia site).
    2. I think it couldn't be any compability problems with my MOBO chipset (it is nvidia too) and video card.
    3. Any thermal problems (I'm very paranoic about that), got 3 fan\exaust on the pc case, and i only use thermaltake coolers/exaust.
    4. My ram memory clock it is set to 333mhz just like my fsb for more stability.
    5. The video card IRQ it is fine.
    6. Bios configuration. I've test my AGP settings with and without AGP Fastwrites and PCI enchant (other bios options u guys have told me to leave as default like agp voltage and clock settings).
    7. My PSU is 500w (422) and the I didn't connect anything on the power line that goes to the card.
    8. I used driver cleaner 3.2 to clean my last msi fx 5200 drivers.
    so here we go...  
    Question one - I've read all the posts just like mine, and seems that my problem it is with the PC PSU, but my PSU it is 500W, it was pretty cheap   but it is 500W and u guys and the video card manual have told me that the minimum required it is 350w, well the specs of the PSU it is +3.3v 28A, +5V 50A (230W), +12V 18A (216W). I saw in some post that my card would need a 24A on the 12V line, and a 32A would be the real deal for overclocking, is that true? Will I have to buy another one???  
    Question two - By the way I used to have a msi geforcefx 5200 tdr-128, and when I changed the Video cards I just unistaled the video card drivers, is it enought? Or there is some freaking windows registration of my 5200 driver corrupting my 5950 performance. Will I have to Format my PC???  
    Question tree - Why when I try to an output video resolution below 640x480 to ANY TV (already tested on 5 TV) with S-video or RCA cables, the video files (divx/xvid...) get all overlapped???  
    Question fuor - If I change my drivers from de MSI nVidia to the original nvidia, will I get more stability???  
    So can u guys help me... thanks  

    1.) You should be ok with 18 amps on the 12v rail, but that is bare minimum!
    If you have poor airflow in your case, the power supply's efficiency will drop considerably due to excess heat. The voltages/amps can drop below acceptable levels and cause instability.
    2.) It is possible that leftover registry entries and bad keys are crapping up your registry. If it's been a while since you've reformatted and you've installed/uninstalled lots of software since then, it might be something to consider.
    However, I reccomend that you dump MSI drivers for the time being, and try the latest Forceware, go here for the latest  nVidia Drivers you can also visit the archive if you'd like an earlier version here http://ftp://download1.nvidia.com/Windows/
    Consider this procedure and use at your own risk.
    Make sure to have the latest drivers downloaded.
    I.) Disable System Restore and then procede to Control Panel and remove the VGA drivers. DO NOT REBOOT
    II.)Run driver cleaner (I click the clean button at least twice) NOW REBOOT
    III.) Ignore the hardware wizard and go directly to where you have the latest drivers and run the setup.
    You may want to consider fresh chipset drivers.
    3.) Not a clue
    4.) Possible, but the overall condition of your OS, the process in wich you install drivers, and proper cooling, can have either an isolated or accumulative effect on overall stability of your system.
    And Just to let you know, MSI employees don't visit this sight, a simple bump would eventually get someones attention (that's willing and able to answer your questions)

  • Sound problems - MSI Motherboard and drivers

    message:-
    I have an Evesham Microcomputer and am having difficulty with the sound - distorted and sometimes slow. I decided to use Live update to ensure I have the most upto date drivers for the sound card and chip set, both VIA.

    Here is the problem.
    I login to one domain and then open a new webpage (same browser) and login

    However, when I logout of one, it logs me out of both and which ever one
    that I logged out of is the logout/login page that I see for both web pages.
    The same thing happens if I try to login to 2 different domains at the same
    time. One will override the other and I end up with the same domain open in
    both browsers.
    I am pretty sure that this has to do with the cookie, since it is probably
    using the same one for both and then getting confused. Does anyone know how
    to fix this?The way the cookies are set for the current authentication are it is based on
    the portal domain/dns domains and the client ipaddress.
    When a user logs in a random session id is generated, and then once he
    authenticates the session id is made valid and is added into the session hash
    table.
    So to answer your question you can do what your trying to do if you are using
    two browsers but in the current architecture and the way sessions are handled it
    is not possible if your using just one browser ..
    iWS Sp8 is not certified to run with portal and the web server that is shipped

  • Problem MSI mega player 533

    after update 002.000.* firmware in MSI MEGA PLAYER 533, windows and linux not detected MSI MEGA PL-533,and can not switch "ON" my devices,how to repair
    in windows  INITIALIZING MSI-5533 not detected devices ,pleaase help meeeee how to repair

    I finally solved "the v2.00.02/v1.672 firmware update problem" [after 20 install/reinstall f*ckups]
    [I also tought (at the time) that my player is dead/fried...doesn't matter now dough..]
    It's almost funny now how easy I made it to work again with updated firmware..
    point is that when you connect it on USB without pressing anything and start updater
    and when it says "Media state not initialized" you check "Format" and run it..when completed
    unplug it..and then again connect it with play pressed all the time (as described in instructions)..
    start updater again with format option checked and wait to complete..thats it!
    now finally everything works fine as it should be (v2.00.02)..
    P.S. "Questioon" wrote that he didn't figured how to work with playlist..just, when you are in the "playlist", need to press next/previous key for about half a second to navigate through folders (when you copy music to player you put it in folders if you want to use playlist feature)

  • Stability Problems/MSI K7D-L 6501

    Note* To other members that have helped so far, I appreciate it a lot*
    As I mentioned earlier in a topic, I asked about what values were good for a power supply, now I'm asking for a help with Stability problems. Since I have installed this power supply, I have used MSI's Pc Alert 3 program, Speedfan, and Motherboard Monitor. The problem is as follows.
    When I first cold boot, everything seems to be in check, once it begins windows, it complete hangs, and then reboots, byself. Once it reboots, it starts windows 2000 fine. After PC alert starts, say anywhere from 1 to 10 mins, I get error messages in the log for Chassis fan not operational, and it shows ZERO, Same as speedfan, motherboard monitor. Then I get Voltage spikes and drops, Standby, +12v, Battery, CPU VCore to high, to low, etc, ...Motherboard monitor and PC alert also records this too, where speedfan doesn't always catch it. But, also when it shows that the CPU fan's have ZERO RPM's and the Chassis is ZERO, they are all working. Now before I forget, I did have an Enlight 420, but now I have a AGI 400. Big mistake problably, i'm sure to find out. With the Enlight 420, it did show an error for Zero chassis fan, but I also believe that with everything I have running, I am well over Combined VOltage. I did some numbers and I think I should have something that is at least 450 or higher. I used the website http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/ just to get an idea, and I didn't know that the xp's can consume up to 62 watts of power, add everything I have and your talking about 439 watts total.
    I call the store that I got this power supply from,(Mind you I have only had since the 17th of Sept.) and they think it's hardware. Now my board doesn't show any problems such as bad caps, or etc. The DLED lights are showing everything is fine. They don't belive it is anything to do with the power supply, so I have to wait until they get a bigger wattage in so that I can swap it. Their website says they carry up to 500 and this sad, not to even have the merchandise in and still advertise it. I think that's FALSE ADVERTISING, and is punishable, since they want to charge me a restocking fee  
    If anybody has any suggestions or ideas, I'm willing to listen because my comp is down and it's bugging me to have all this hardware and money sitting here, and not able to use it.
    Thank You,
    Heatpipe
    PS, Thanks Again to Wonkanoby for time and help, I didn't want him to think I had forgotten. 

    Well I tried that, and when windows started up the first time, 1/4 of the way and the screen just garbled over, did that for about 10 sec, and then rebooted and loaded windows as i mentioned earlier in the thread. I don't know what else to do really, maybe putthe  Enlight back in and see what that does

  • SLI problem, MSI gtx 280 super oc

    I decided to get another gpu for my rig, the other being gigabyte gtx 280, and once I got the system running, it has been crashing usually always after a cold start (computed being shutdown for more than half an hour). By crashing I mean screen freeze. I have to shut the computer down and take the power off from the PSU. That fixes it untill I shut the computer down again for more than 30 minutes. I have tested both cards independently with OCCT, got no errors from memory and ran the gpu test for 1 hour straight and the temps stayed at 85C and no errors. RMA time or what could be the cause of the problem? Haven't had any such crashes when I was running a single gpu setting. Done clean install on graphics drivers, used driver sweeper etc. using the newest nvidia drivers. Had the same problem with every driver I have tried.
    system specs:
    cpu: AMD phenom x4 9950 BE @ 3ghz
    psu: corsair hx1000 sli ready
    memory: 4g OCZ ddr2 pc2-8500 1066mhz sli ready
    gpus: gigabyte gtx 280 + msi gtx 280 super oc

    well I can test the msi card again, but psu shouldnt be an issue, its a 1000w psu, is there any way to test if the pci-e slot is faulty?

    well I can test the msi card again,
    Test it again alone, leave it full test.
    Check ventilation system inside PC case and ensure that there is a good airflow.
    Leave side door of the PC case open and add extra FAN to blow up directly to the VGA's.
    Then re-test

    See if you can place the second VGA in another pci-e slot instead, say 1st and 3th instead 1st and 2nd.
    This also may help reducing heating
