Problems with MSI K8MM-ILSR mATX after BIOS flash...

I flashed it with the latest AMI bios dated 12/21/2004 and i used the LiveUpdate Windows-Based flashing. Everything was perfect and ran fine, comp rebooted and everything is still running great, EXCEPT....
Now my memory wont run at DDR400, There is a DDR Setting, if anyone wants to DLOAD the manual and look with me....Its either set to 'Limit' or 'Auto'. Auto on the old bios loaded at DDR400, but now its DDR333. When i choose limit, my DDR Options come up, DDR100, 200, 266, 333, 400. When i set it to 400, DDR333 STILL comes up. Aside from that i dont know where the dividers are. CPU said my ram is at 333 aswell. Its stating that the mobo is using CPU/12, which i dont like.
Any help or ideas? I dont really wanna use the old bios.
EDIT: I tried removing CMOS battery, resetting CMOS, and using the second to last BIOS, still no DDR400.

rakstr,
Since I now have two boards with memory setup restrictions (see stats) from MSI, I decided to work the problem with my own fix. That's Danno's "don't get mad, get even-better-results policy". I had a choice of hacking the Bios or something more entertaining......
Last night, I wrote a PCR File for the AMD Athlon 64 memory controller, i.e. the Hypertransport bridge. I googled to find one, but apparently no one's bothered to write one. I'm doing alpha testing now with the PCR, and the results have been good. Are you familiar with H. Oda's WPCREDIT/WPCRSET utilities? I see some of the folks in this Forum have been using it to toggle 1T/2T Command Rate. Since Memtest86+ can provide alterations to settings on the fly to establish best memory tweaks with stability, I'm now able to recreate any of those settings with WPCREDIT from within Windows. I had fun last night tweaking a setting with WPCREDIT running on screen side-by-side with the memory window from CPU-Z. As I'd tweaked a setting, CPU-Z would almost immediately update (on it's own) to the altered setting....fun fun. It was good verification of the PCR. I do have more testing and documentation to do.
I need a beta tester/volunteer in a day or so. Are you interested? Are you familiar with those utilities?

Problems with opening links in outlook after installing Flash player 11

I recently installed a flash plaer 11 active X update. I wasn't given the option of not installing google chrome and another program - Ask toolbar I think ( or I may have missed it ) but when I discovered the problem I uninstalled the google chrome and the other program.
After doing this I discovered that when I went to open links in outlook I received the message:
``This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator.``
I am running Windows 7 64 bit and using IE 9.
Any help would be appreciated to return my system to normal.
I also noticed that chrome and the other program were installed without automatically creating a restore point.
I am very disappointed in how Adobe pushes programs on people.

How did you install the update - via website? If so, you can always uncheck any optional software
Either way, Chrome behaves very badly - especially when uninstalled. Try setting your usual browser as the default browser, and Outlook, Word, etc. should open links normally after that.
P.S. I do not endorse Adobe's policy to push optional software with their free products, but there is nothing we can do about that. However, Adobe would not go as far as pushing spyware (Ask toolbar); most likely it was the harmless Google toolbar.

[Athlon64] Problem with MSI RS480M2-IL

Hi all,
I have problem with MSI RS480M2-IL. My problem is My temperature is very high... around 55-60c ... i am using AMD 3000+ Venice and no OC... and SpeedFan unable to detect my Voltage usage... Aida32 also same... 1 more thing is when i tried to run SiSoft Sandra 2005... it will take alot of time to load, sometime will just hang. i Test PCMark04 and found only got 3k for average mark... my friend getting 4k+ and we are using same spec... Below is my Spec:-
MSI RS480M2-IL
AMD 64 3000+ Venice E3
Bios Version 3.8
Geil PC3200 DDR400 2.5-3-3-6
Maxtor 60GB HDD 7200RPM 2mb
Verudium Power Vortex 420W
Hope some one can advised me what to do... my score too low and my board detect temperature and voltage is not accurate... Hope MSI Engineer will look thought and help me... Thank for Viewing !

the underlying "Who's fault is it?" question: AMD64 VENICE CORE (E3) PROCESSORS? or MSI RS480M2-IL MOBOS?
so far, ALL users with this proc/mobo combination HAVE the high (or incorrect) temperature issue. replacing the mobo obviously will not resolve the issue but replacing the proc with one that is NOT a Venice E3 core, does the trick. but of course, not everyone will have the privilege of exchanging their damned proce via the retailer specially if it's beyond the first 21 days of purchase.
in my case, my retailer refused to have the E3 proc replaced with the 'corrected' E6 version no matter how hard you explained the known issues with the E3. no chance of AMD recalling the E3 cores since problems with are only isolated to the particular MSI RS480M2 boards.
so for users that are and will be stuck with this combination, what is the solution then to the temperature issue? in my opinion, it's up to MSI to perhaps release a bios update that will correct this. another important thing to consider is the question: IS MY VENICE CORE INDEED OVERHEATING OR IS IT JUST THE MSI MOBO SHOWING INCORRECT READINGS? the proc overheating in actuality is obviously a lot different thatn just having an incorrect bios temp readings.
based on what i have observed, my Venice core displays the correct cpu temps (33-35*C) when being used on a MSI K8 Diamond mobo. placing the proc back to the R2480M2 board shows a very unusual 61-63*C bios cpu temp. furthermore, if i touch the stock heatsink/fan cooler that i have (for both motherboards), it really does NOT seem to be extremely hot to think that the cpu is actually overheating. in addition, my system using the RS480M2 performs well and has no spontaneous shutting down problems whatsoever. of course, my sense of touch is not as accurate as a thermometer but more or less, if you consider all the points i mentioned, most of us can say that the whole issue is just a matter of incorrect cpu reading.
perhaps the ATI chipset is the one to blame since i have notices as well that the Venice core processors do not seem to have this high temp problems with MSI's K8 mobos with the NVIDIA chipsets.
one last question: so do you guys think that this problem can be resolved by a simple bios revision? (as a dell tech guy, i do know for a fact that bios updates resolves overheating error messages in Inspiron/Latitude laptops)

I am having a problem with very slow start up after expanding RAM on my 2009 Mac Pro.

I am having a problem with very slow start up after expanding RAM on my 2009 Mac Pro (8 Core 2.93GHz). When I run the Mac Pro with 2 x 2Gb RAM it takes 4 seconds before the gray screen, chime and spinning wheel appear.However when I expand the RAM to 20GB the grey screen and chimes appear after a long 20+ second black screen.
The RAM modules are paored 2 x 4GB Crucial CT51272BA1339.M18FMR and 6 x 2GB SAMSUNG M391B5673FH0-CH9, all DDR3 ECC.
Reading articles on the internet, I thought it may be damaged RAM modules, but I have completed memtest and all are okay. I have tried changing the pairs around and if I use any paired 2 modules the Mac Pro starts normally, only when I try running more than 2 modules the delayed start up happens. (black screen 20 Seconds)
I also have tried PRAM and SMU resets after changing the RAM setups, and the issues always occurs when I have more than 2 modules. As you can see I have 6 SAMSUNG modules and even with identical modules the issue happens, when increasing the RAM to more than 2 modules.
The Mac Pro runs fine after the start up screen and can see all the modules, but has anyone else come across this issue, or have any ideas as to why my Mac Pro is taking 20 seconds to start up with 20 GB RAM?

Hi there. Thanks for your comments.
I have tried all the different combinations of RAM setup, and as stated in my initial topic, the Mac Pro boot up time only slows when I have more that 2 modules. Where I place these does not seem to make a difference.
I have taken the Mac Pro to an Apple Reseller technician yesterday and they where not able to find any RAM errors. Apparently the boot up time is within Apple's acceptable parameters for this set up.
Could anyone that is running a Mac Pro 2009 with more that 4 modules of RAM, please let me know if the boot up time is normal. ( the time it takes from pressing the power button to seeing the gray screen around 16 - 20 seconds)
Or is anyone else having the same issues?
thanks for your responce

Problem with connecting to free wifi after upgrading to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8

Hi
I had problems with connecting to free Wifi after upgrading my PC(Notebook) to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8. As I travel a lot within europe, I am used to being able to connect to Free Wifi(those that dont need a key or password to enter) but soon after downloading
Windows 8.1 I almost never was able to do this. I'd always get «LIMITED» even though the signal was strong.This was so fustrating,so much so that I reset my PC to clear it of Windows 8.1 and am now back to Windows 8.This is a shame because I was really liking
using Windows 8.1 and if not for this problem(which is a big one) I'd still be using it. If I download Windows 8.1 again from the Windows store what is the probability that I'll have the same problems?
Thanks Portozzygirl

More often than not when a device isn't working it is because the driver has become corrupted. Re-installing a fresh copy should help

Problems with Wifi on iphone 4 after updating ot iOS 5.1

After I update to iOS 5.1 is started having problems with my home wifi.
After the update every thing seems to be running alright after after a day my connection was lost.
When I tried to reconnect I got the message "unable to join the network".
I tried the following things:
- Forget network, reconnect: This did not help
- restart iPhone: did not help.
- Reset network settings: did not help.
The next step I tried was to restart my router.
This solved the problem, but after 1 day I have the same issue.
When I go to work there is no problem when I get back home same thing over again.
This is going on ever since I update to iOS 5.1
Before the update I had no problems.
Does anyone have more perment solution.

I have the same issue with my iPhone4 running ios5.1. I have tried everything you mentioned above as well as updating the firmware on my router, setting my router to broadcast on 2.4GHZ or 5GHZ exclusively, assigning my iPhone a static address as well as a multitude of other mentioned fixes. I have determined this is NOT an issue with my WiFi Network, or Router. All other wireless devices in my home do not have this issue; except for my partner's iPhone4S also running ios5.1. It's WiFi issues are identical to mine. Our other Smartphone, an HTC running Android, has no WiFi issues whatever.
When I attempt to use WiFi on other networks with my iPhone4, I encounter the same issues: Intermittent connectivity,reporting that it is "Unable to Join Network", showing a strong WiFi signal on screen and yet having no WiFi connectivity, showing WiFi connectivity on screen and strong signal strength, and having no IP Address(etc) under WiFi Networks Settings. After spending a great deal of time online looking for solutions I have determined the following:
This is clearly an Apple Hardware or Software issue. I hope Apple eventually addresses this issue because it is extremely frustrating!

memory voltage 2.1
Make sure that the memory timings are not set to 4-4-4-x but that they are set to the defaults values (5-5-5-x). Also ensure, that the memory clock speed is not set to anything higher than 400 MHz (=DDR2-800). The voltage at these settings should not need to exceed 1.95V. So please lower it accordingly. In case the freezes still occure, please run memtest86+ to check your memory for errors.

Please get rid of that tool for all further tests. Uninstall it completely from your system as it is known to cause crashes and freezes on its own terms when running.

Problems with result area in workbooks after upgrade to BW 3.5

Hi,
we are experiencing some problems with our <b>workbooks</b> after the upgrade to BW 3.5. When refreshing all queries in a workbook (that was there before 3.5) without selecting a specific query we get the message <b>'Result area</b> cannot be found, specify a new one'. After selecting, the message appears again in an infinite loop.
Has anybody had similar problems and has found a solution for this?
Thanks,
EMS

Hi,
I am having that message, always if I delete a Sheet which contains an embeded query.
Even the sheet is deleted, the SAPBEX has information of all the embeded queries, and tries to find the Result area to put the data.
To find out if this is your case as well,
select an empty cell in a Sheet and continue like that, until all the embeded queries are been displayed.
Regards

I have problem with Access Connections on L412 after that utilyty upgrade

I have problem with Access Connections on L412 after that utilyty upgrade in early August. Windows 7 Ultimate/x64.
It stops connecting to WPA2 Enterprise (AES-CCMP), Microsoft PEAP, no server cert, with any credentials I try to use. The same account(s) works with native Intel manager on other notebooks and on mobile devices. I lost the wireless connectivity to enterprise WiFi network.
And, after deinstallation of Access Connections, the inability to connect keeped intact with native Win7 WiFi management.
I think, something was broken in Access Connections 5.83 Build 83C753WW and some registry settings/ dll modules were altered but not returned to normal after deinstall.

Access Connections is definitely broken for WPA encryption. Both versions 5.02 and 5.84 fail for me. If I use the Windows XP wireless configuration instead of Access Connections, everything works.
Does anyone know how to report this to Lenovo? I chased links around the web site but couldn't find a place.

I downloaded OS X Lion on my iMac and I'm having problems with my computer waking up after hibernating. I can get to the login screen but my mouse will be frozen. The only fix's is a hard reboot. Any help would be great!

Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM.
1. SMC
Read this and follow the instructions for your kind of mac:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
2. PRAM
Follow the procedure below:
1. Power down the machine.
2. Locate the following keys on your keyboard in preparation for Step 4:
command–option–P–R
3. Press the ‘power on’ button.
4. Immediately – and before the grey screen appears – hold down ‘command-option-P-R’ all together.
5. Keep them held down until you’ve heard the start-up chime twice. After you release them you should hear it again, and hopefully your Mac will boot up as it should normally.
