Problems with msi k8n neo-2 and xfx 6800 card

is this card incompatible with the msi k8n neo-2 motherboard?
i ve got this mobo last week and when i tried to install the card to it nothing comes on screen, no beeps or nothing, ive changed the power supply, the card works fine on my old pc with both power supplies (old pc was 2500+ amd with epox 8rda+) i ve tried booting up with nothing else connected on the psu except the card itself, it still doesnt seem to work, the new motherboard works fine with my old radeon 9600 pro.
What can i do?

Thats not what I read (assuming this is the same correct model)
420W double unit
DC O/P Load Max
+5V 42 Amp.
+12V 16 Amp.
+3.3V 28 Amp.
-5V 0.5 Amp.
-12V 0.8 Amp.
+5VSB 2 Amp.
Agreed that one is 420W, but is that it or not?

  • Problems with my K8N Neo 2 and my 6800GT

    I just got my MSI K8N Neoboard with af Winchester 3200,
    when Iam playing or do some 3Dmarks.. my suystem hangs/freeze for a couple of seconds... it dont reboot just freeze and then gooing on.
    At first I thought i have OC to much ( 400/1100 ) on my 6800GT.. so i tried going down on 375/1000....
    i did not freeze so much now.... but still, I can only play for 2 min without failure.
    on me old board Asus A7N8X i drove my VGA at 400/1100 without any problems.
    I have tried som different drivers 66.93,67.42... without luck...
    What is wrong..... is there a problem with this AMD 64 board and a 6800 GT

    hi Howdiaudi
    welcome to the forum
    if youve not seen it 6800 cards-a no-no with nforce boards?     may give you some ideas/solutions
    there are a number of other threads about your card which you'll find with the search function
    hope you get sorted
    good luck  

  • Big problem with MSI K8N neo 2!!!

    I don't know what it is, but it's a big porblem that many people have with their new K8N Neo 2 Pl motherboard. The problem is that the system freezes and you must push the power button or the reset button.
    It happens randomly, when i move my mouse, when i am copying something, when i download something.
    I have already updated my bios, with no result. My brother has totally the same specs like me. We bought it at the same time and he has no problems and my pc freezes all the time.
    What could it be?
    specs:
    3800+
    POV 6800 Ultra
    Twinmos Matched 1Gb PC3200
    2 x 160 Gb maxtor Diamandplus 9
    Akasa 460 Watt.
    Msi what the have you done with my motherboard?

    How does that dual power rail thing work? can one device pull from both at the same time? (i.e. the cpu) if not the 14/15 amps from only one of the rails wouldnt be enough, if that is not the problem, it sounds like you got ahold of some dodgy memory. run memtest86+ from a boot floppy, if it clears 10 hours, well start looking for other culprits. it may very well be the motherboard, but the best way to get help is not to go on a forum dedicated to that manufacturer and start cussing at them.

  • Reboot problem with MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and 250 GB SATA HDD

    I'm having a "reboot" problem with my MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum. After turning my system on it will run without any problems, until I reboot. After a reboot it will always hang after the initial windows-bootscreen. The HDD-light will remain on. If, instead of going into Windows XP SP2, I try to enter the BIOS after a reboot (DEL) the system will also hang (blank screen with blinking cursor).
    It started doing this after I installed the Maxtor 250 GB SATA disk. Before, I didn't have problems rebooting. If I disconnect the Maxtor drive I can reboot and enter BIOS and Windows each and every time. Reconnecting the Maxtor 250 GB SATA drive will return the reboot problem. I always have to use the power swith to get a working system again. It's not enough to do a hard reset (this has the same effect as rebooting).
    Here are the details of my system:
    MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum (BIOS 1.B)
    Athlon 64 3200+ (Winchester, 2 Ghz, 512 KB cache, stepping DH-D0)
    2 x Kingston KVR400X64C25/512, 512 MB, DDR, PC3200 (2,5-3-3-8 T1)
    Asus Radeon AX800 Pro (256 MB)
    PSU Antec Sonata 380W
    HDD Maxtor 80Gb ATA (6Y080P0, Pri Master)
    HDD Seagate 250Gb SATA (ST3200822AS)
    HDD Maxtor 250Gb SATA (6V250F0 - jumpered in SATA150 mode, the mobo wouldn't work with the drive in SATA300-mode)
    Aopen COM5232/AAH Pro CD-Writer ATA (Sec Master)
    BenQ DW1640 DVD-Writer ATA (Sec Slave)
    P.S. The NVidia IDE-drivers are NOT installed. System is not overclocked.

    Thank you for all the replies. Upgrading to the latest Nvidia IDE-drivers did not fix my problem. Moving to other SATA-ports did not help either. Upgrading the mobo's BIOS is not really an option (I'm using one version before the most recent and there isn't anything in the fixlist of the latest BIOS).
    Now I've contacted Maxtor for (hopefully) a new firmware.

  • Problems With MSI K8N Neo Platinum

    Posting some probems I have face and wondering if you folks have experience similar problems. I bought 2 and bot hahve same problems (sold both of it). Another friend of mine have also same problems with the board.
    1. SATA 1/2 don't work properly. I have detection problems using SATA ports 1/2. The comp will not detect my IDE devices and hang at POST screen. Reboot/reset don't solve the problem. I have to turn off and on to get it to work. Problem is only sovled after switching to SATA 3/4.
    2. Network disconnection problem. The NIC will auto disconnect and reconnect back by itself, esp. when under overclocked conditions.
    3. Cannot overclock much using DIMM slot-1 esp. when mem is over 230MHz. Must change to slot 2/3. Even so, I do face BSOD stating an USB driver is the cause of the issue.
    4. Comp will sometimes unable to reboot at FSB between ~210-240MHz. 250Mz and above seems OK.
    Now, I am using Abit KV8 Pro 1.1 and it works fine though. No FSB reboot issues. I am using 1.1 with latest BIOS, thus not AGP/PCI lock issues. Hope MSI will fix those problems mentioned ASAP cause my Abit don't work with mobile A64s. :(

    Seriously, I have absolutely no idea. It may be a QC problem, it may be a design problem, its may be BIOS or others. The only thing I know that after I jump ship to Abit KV8 Pro 1.1, all these problems are gone. Only problem is that Abit don't support mobile A64s.
    BTe, just another problem or maybe over conservative restrictions. When using DDR333 RAMs, the BIOS will not allow you to manually set it to 400. Thus at 200MHz FSB/HTT, your RAM is stuck at 166MHz. Pretty stupid restriction I have to say.

  • Problem with msi pt8 neo-v and sata drive

    hi, i have a hitachi 80gb sata2 drive( its configured to work as sata1 to work properly on the motherboard) and the msi pt8 neov motherboard, the problem is that the transfer mode is showing incorrectly on hdtune and everest plus it doesnt give the features right, like shown in the image below. everytime i open hdtune gives me a different transfer mode and features get ticked/unticked.
    ive tried the disk on another pc i have and it shows info correctly so it cant be the hard drive, what could be causing this?
    i have installed the hyperion 5.13a drivers and tried too with the microsoft drivers, still the same.
    hope someone can help me out as is driving me crazy!
    oh one last question, in bios settings i see the sata drive( just using one) as bbs-0(raid) HDS728080pla380 why is that? ive tried disabling "bootrom function" under Sata controller but then it wont recognize it, is there a way to change this??

    Quote from: duhast1 on 13-October-07, 06:28:13
    SATA Transfer mode, it changes everytime i open hdtune AND features get ticked unticked everytime i open hdtune as well, like if transfer mode was changing constantly
    Unless, you use your disk purely to benchmark, your transfer rates will dynamically change. As data is written to drive or removed.........
    Everything is working fine 

  • MSI K8N NEO platinum and MOBILE chips

    I just found out a problem with MSI K8N NEO Platinum.
    I recently upgraded my cpu from Clawhammer DTR 3200+ 1.5V to Clawhammer Mobile 3400+ 1.4V (hoping for better overclocking). To my surprise the mainboard can no longer raise the VCore voltage over 1.45V (it doesn’t matter if I select in the bios 1.5 or 1.55V). The only working option is raising de VCore by 3.3% 5% 8.3% 10%, resulting in a maximum VCore of 1.45 + 1.45 x 10% = 1.6V
    I did some googeling and found there is a VCore issue with the K8N NEO and mobile chips, although DTR chips are fully supported (working VCore and multiplier adjustments).
    I am using the latest beta bios 1.56B (moded by Pinochio)
    Did any of you found a way to resolve this problem? IT IS DRIVING ME INSANE!!!

  • Msi k8n neo plat and microsoft ie

    getting my msi k8n neo plat board running satisfactory , except for one problem . when i got to amdmb.com, i start surfing the site, and after a minute or 2, i get a microsoft ie error, send the error report to microsoft, and then ie closes. what is the problem , is it with amdmb.com site? its the only site that this problem with ie is present, all other sites i don,t have this problem

    just tryed using the browser firefox, and it works great.  its just ie that doesn,t work on amd.mb, and only that site. wierd problem, never experienced anything like it before. had run a short memtest , no errors.  the 6800gt , msi k8n neo plat and amd 64 3400 work great. get some super madonion benchmarks-all default-1024 x 768 32bit- 22,755. i was hoping for 22,000, but exceeded my expectations. can get into the 23,000 + with overclocking the 6800gt, have had it overclocked at gpu-412, memory 1.12. not sure how much more you can increase the numbers, thinking my gpu is close to the limit at 412.had a problem with windvd, it ended up being a configuration in windvd- had to enable hardware acceleration , bingo- worked great after that. got my corsair xms pc 3200 to work at 6-3-3-2 timings. still getting to know the board,  there is definately a learning curve to be delt with on this board, but i am getting it to work better by the day.

    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.

    check this out m8, could be somerthing to do with it.
    Also make sure you got latest drivers etc etc.
    Try disabling the Nvidia/ati speed up setting in bios. hit shift + f2 alt + f3 I think in bios - brings up these options

  • Help with MSI K8N Neo Platinum

    HELP please- motherboard MSI K8N Neo PLATINUM: I tried to take away the backplate for the heatsink (on the back side of MB) in order to install the zalman HS beafore i read the forum (use a fan...) and the worst of all happend:
    I scratched the back surface!! the scratches are minor, that is 4 scratches half a milimeter long each and not deep but i can see the copper of some lines leading from the memory slots to the processr. My question is : can I try and build the computer on that motherboard anyway or better buy a new one? is there a risk of dammaging other components? oh god what a mistake!

    Make sure the new backplate is non-conductive. The backplate for the Hyper 6 has a non-conductive sticker on it. Make sure to keep it on if youve got one... If the lines are exposed even with the back-plate on perhaps you should cover them with some non-conductive (100% non conductive!) tape or something.
    Then it doesnt matter if they are exposed, as long as they are ok.
    A good tip, which got when i was removing my backplate, is to use a blow dryer to heat it up and the remove it with your fingers. That way youll also notice if it gets to hot
    The glue gets sticky at blow drier temps. And pls, dont singe the MB with your blow dryer, you only have to make it hot, and if you cant touch it, how can you remove it with your fingers?
    I guess theres no way of telling if you have a serious prob and no way to tell if your cpu will be ok. I guess you could (?) try and start it wíthout anything (cpu, mems) but a PSU, and then, if it (and maybe the PSU) goes "!Pfsssssss!"  or "bang!", youll now you will have to replace it.
    I put a screwdriver through an asus board once, and it still worked...  

  • MSI K8N Neo Platinum and DTR

    Heya fellas,
    I was wondering if anyone know whether or not the new MSI K8N Neo Platinum will have support for the AMD Athlon 3200+ DTR chip?  I know some boards have had trouble with them and I'm hoping that this one, since its a new reviision, will conflict with it.
    Thanks,
    -Ish-

    If that's the "Newcastle" version of the 3200+, it is supposed to work!

    You may firstly clear cmos and load defaults in the bios, and if it is available, please attach us a picture of the screen which the issue occurred when you hit enter during the its detecting the SATA hard disk. I am a little confused about what you said. Please tell me what changes have you made before the issue took place. I just want to help, so do many other people. But please firstly give us more detailed information.
    I did it and nothing! Should I restore the original bios version that came with the mother?
    I'll explain the problem: You enter BIOS, go to the disk properties (where says LBA, LARGE, CYLINDERS, HEAD, etc) and hit enter, usually the screen goes blue and shows a line at the bottom of the screen (they are like triangles pointing downside) and 2 seconds after everithing comes back showing the data of the disk ok? Well, now it hangs forever in the "triangles pointing downside" part and I have to restart the machine...
    Does this belongs to the issue of the K8n neo4 platinum with the maxtor hdd's ??? The mobo is malfunctioning?
    Please helpppp! Thanks!

  • Probems with msi 875p neo Fis2r and network controller driver

    Hi guys just wondering if anyone could help me with my msi 875p neo FIS2R and problems with the network controller driver/network card.
    I'm running xp on a computer my nextdoor neighbour gave me. I got it working fine  with service pack 3 installed but then installed a bunch of windows updates last night and the computer would switch itself off before windows could start. Now I reinstalled xp and unfortunately it does not recognise the network controller/card at all now. I tried installing the intel network controller drivers but it stopped because it said no intel adapter/card was installed/present. Could anyone please help with suggestions? I tried running everest and under newtwork it doesnt list intel network adapters but I'm pretty certain it is. Again any suggestions?

    Clear CMOS with your PSU unplugged from A/C power.  Then load "Optimized Defaults" in BIOS and retest.
    thanks jimi... jack
    will try that and post later if it worked... ive never cleared cmos, this sort of thing is relatively new to me but thanks again
