Quick Question - Power Connetor on 845G MaX

Man its been a long time since I took A+ :D
I hooked up the ATX 20-Pin Power Connector (PWR1) to the Mobo...No Probs!
This is the part that is confusing me....
ATX 12V Power Connector 4-Pin (JPW1) ?(
Do I hook this up too? Or is this just a different type
of power connector?
I have a 430w Antec P/S that has both the 20-Pin & a 4-Pin connectors
I wasnt sure to use the 20-Pin by itself or Both.
Can someone clarify this for me.......Thanks! )

Thanks for the Quick Reply Wonkanoby.....
Can you give me an explaination of this?
Im trying to find the logic behind this.
What does the 4-Pin Connector do that the 20-Pin doesnt do?
Thanks Again! :D[/color]

MSI 845G Max-L power problem?

My system is about a month old as follows:
MSI 845G Max-L (MSI-6580)
P4 2.26 Northwood 533bus w/stock Intel fan
512meg Corsair XMS 2700
MSI Geforce4 4400Ti
SB Live 5.1
Maxtor 40Gb ATA 133 7200rpm
56X Aopen CD-rom
16X10X40 Lite-on CD-rw
420watt PS
It was bought and assembled from Ibuypower.com with the harddrive formatted only... no OS installed. I installed WinXP Pro and installed all necessary drivers . Everything was running GREAT until about a week ago, something strange began to happen. When using the shut down option in WinXP, and using "turn off" my computer will power down and sometimes spontaneously reboot instead of the power shutting off completely. Sometimes it will delay 3-4 seconds with all power off, including the case fans, lights, cpu fan, then powers back up. Last night, I powered down before bed and it stayed off...at least that's what I thought... when I woke up this morning, it was back on again. I can't figure for the life of me what is going on.. any help would be appreciated. ?(

make sure all wake on options are of in bios

Which 845G Max-L bios version are you running?

Before I flash my 845G Max-L bios from v1.1 to v1.4, I
thought I'd post a message asking what bios version are the owners of the 845G Max-L board are currently running.
I noticed that v1.4 fixes 'CPU microcode', but I don't believe that Intel would leave it to MSI to update the CPU (P4) microcode! What does v1.4 really fix?

I've never flashed an AMI bios (only a Phoenix bios on another computer) but I have two questions .....
I'm currently running WinXP Home with 4 partitions
primary, 2nd, 3rd partitions ( C: D: E: ) are formatted as NTFS, but the 4th partition ( F: ) is FAT.
Should I just copy the amifl827.exe and A6580IMS.140
to the FAT formatted F: partition, reboot using Win98 floppy and flash from the F: partition OR should I just copy them to the ramdisk and run from the ramdisk?
Will amifl827 try to access my C: partition and flake out because it is formatted as NTFS or does it just do it's thing from the partition I'm flashing from and ignore all the other partitions?
Copy the bios files onto a floppy disk and flash from there

Just a quick question regards my mobo..

I might possibly bricked my motherboard which I already ask a while back,, just a quick question,,, Now I did hooked up the powersupply to the motherboard alone,,, no other components,,, just the PSU and motherboard,,, then I use a paperclip to put static force on the motherboard's power button ( where powercables on the case should suppose to be in ),,, now the motherboard just keeps on blinking as my problem b4,, so its really the motherboard right??? I just want to confirm that the motherboard is the problem and no other components... thnks

845G Max problem

My system is running fine at default speed. When it's overclocked to 133MHz FSB, it will always crash at the same spot when booting into Windows. That's when I use the Intel built-in graphics card.
When I use the TNT2, it will only boot into Windows in safe mode at 133MHz. And I see a lot of conflicts in the display card properties, i845G something, can't remember.
There's no option to properly disable the built in AGP. And why is it not working at 133MHz, I thought at 133MHz, everything is running at default speed, right?
Here's my system specs:
P4 1.8A
MSI i845G Max
Corsair PC2700 RAM
Creative TNT2 (when I test)
DLink NIC
BTW, the same processor works fine when it's overclocked to 145MHz FSB using MSI 645DX.

My RAM is a PC2700, even if I change the ratio, it is still within the RAM spec.
Intel Extreme is extremely stable at 100MHz FSB as stated earlier. It will crash at the same spot when booting into Windows at 133MHz FSB.
I tested using a TNT2. It won't even boot into Windows at 100MHz FSB. But using safe mode, TNT2 works fine at 133MHz FSB. But when I checked the display properties, there's a lot of conflicts in between the Intel Extreme and TNT2.
Now my question is, why I can't use my TNT2 even at 100MHz? It was working fine using another MSI 845G Max before I sent for RMA.
Why Intel Extreme doesn't work at 133MHz FSB? I've tried all the memory timings, ratio FYI. It has nothing to do with RAM timings I'm afraid. I tested the same RAM on my KT3. 166MHz at agressive timings run perfectly well.

Will ddr400 work on 845G Max

I'm thinking of buying a secondhand pc from a mate 4 cheap to do some serious OC'ing.
But i've got a bit of a prob....the mobo only supports upto ddr333 and i can't set
the memory frequency lower on his mobo meaning i can only clock as far as the memory will alow it. So im thinking if i can stick some ddr400 i'll be safe not to fry the memory.
So is it possible to put ddr400 in a board that only supports upto 333?
Its a 845G Max mobo with a 1.8b P4 cpu

Hi Sean
Have tried........NO GO!!! No2 led Green than grass on a fresh cut lawn or
field!!!
Had quick look on MSI tw site......and it's a NO support of DDR400 on 845GE Max.............
As I said.........if mem is cheap and WORKS grab it.....coz you can always upgrade to a faster MB later......Lo54d3L......????

845G Max-L MS6580 ??

I am building a machine for a friend for general use and the odd gaming and I've been offered the '845G Max-L Ms6580' to buy from a guy.
I don't know much about the mobo but it will be going with a P4 North 1.8Ghz.
My question's are:
1) Is this board still being made i.e. still producing & selling or is there a new Model of the board out.
2) Is it worth getting? £60 or $95
3) Should I get a different board?
Because of a budget, I need to spend as little on a mobo as I can.
Any help would be great.
Cheers.

IMO.... Id get the 845GE Series because it offically
supports DDR 266 & 333.
I just ordered the 845PE for myself which is basically
the same as the 845GE w/o the GrafX controller built in.

845G Max-L(MS-6580) & G4Ti4200-TD(MS-8870)

Hi,
I'm having trouble with booting up using 845G Max-L(MS-6580) and G4Ti4200-TD(MS-8870).
When the system normally boots up, it first displays the Video card information on the screen then MSI full screen image is displayed, after that Windows starts loading.
However, when I boot the system, it very often does not even show videocard information but the screen just simlpy becomes white (sometimes very light blue or vertical stripes with several colors), then single beep and screen size adjustment seems to happen but it just doesn't go any farther.
So in order to get the system up and running, I just simply repeat rebooting the system. Quite often I have to repeat rebooting around 10 times.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on and how to fix it?
System:
- 845G Max-L (MS-6580)
- G4Ti4200-TD (MS8870) 128MB
- Intel Celron 2.0GHz
- DDR 128MB PC2100
- Windows XP Home Edition

Okay, I think I finally got it work. It was because of the PCI card that I had on Slot 6. I used Slot 3 instead, then it seems to work fine (shared INT problem?). Even using 250W power supply it works well. (Would it still be better to use 480W?)
Even though the problem seems gone, I'm not still clear about the problem, 'cause using ASUS V6800(old) with PCI card on Slot 6 did not cause the problem.
Do you have clear explanation? I guess I have a lot more stuff to learn.

Report Generation Toolkit Error Quick Question

Hi,
I created the most awesome LabVIEW report ever at my desk using a trial version of the RGT and Office 2003. I took this to my production machine and ")@#(&%(*#^%()^!!!" The production machine has office 2007 and a fully licensed version of the RGT. Both machines have LabVIEW 8.6.0. I've read all the stuff about these errors and something about classes and dll's and whatnot's. So my quick question, is: Instead of matching the versions of Microsoft Office as recommended, can I just rewrite from scratch the VI that creates this world's most awesome LabVIEW report on the production machine to create the same effect?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi
Quick Answer: Probably
Slower answer: Microsoft changed a lot of things behind the scenes in Office 2007, but the Report Generation toolkit version 1.1.3 supports Office 2007 so you should be good to go. Depends on what functions are included in your VI. Liek the read me says "Several default settings in Microsoft Office 2007 differ slightly from previous versions. Reports you generate using Office 2007 might look different than reports you generate from other versions of Office because font sizes, cell sizes, and so on, differ."

Two quick questions about Library after moving beginning on a new computer

Hi there,
I just moved from Windows to Mac, meaning I had to move my iTunes library from the old PC to my new MBA.
Just a couple of quick questions.
1. When I started iTunes on my new Mac, in the preferences I directed the media folder to the folder with all my itunes music/podcasts etc, and then I imported the Library XML file. Is this incorrect? Should I have imported a different file? Should I have used the itl file instead?
If so, should I delete the library and start again? (if this is the case, please suggest the best way of doing this without affecting my media)
- a kind of sub-question to this one: some of the media files arent showing up in the iTunes library, but they are in the media folder on the ext HDD. Is there a way I can find out which ones havent been recognized by iTunes? Whats the best way of getting them in to my library?
2. Pretty much half of my podcasts have not been loaded in the new iTunes. The ones that havent were ones that I subscribed to on my iPhone, whereas the ones that show up in iTunes were ones I downloaded from iTunes. When I connect my iPhone and sync it with iTunes, will those podcasts show up in iTunes? Or is there a risk that they will be deleted from my iPhone?
Cheers,

The .xml is lacking some information such as ratings, date added, and play count. Using the .itl includes this information but cannot be imported using the method you did.
A complete library is everything in the iTunes folder. By using the method you did you left the artwork behind in the artwork folder on the other machine.
Selecting the media folder in preferences does not get iTunes to recognize the media. All it does is tell iTunes to start storing new media in that location.
Using the method I outlined nothing will be missed (with the exception of WMA) because you aren't rebuilding your library, you are using the one that already exists.
You don't have to re-copy everything as long as you get the stuff you missed and re-assemble it all as it was before except not on the Mac.

Quick question re select-options

Hi
I am relatively new to ABAP but have a quick question:
I need to create a select-options which does the following:
1. Allows ONLY "equals" signs
2. Disallows intervals
3. Disallows the use of ranges in the multiple selection box.
4. Allows multiple individual selections.
I can achieve most using the following:
select-options s_knvh for knvh-kunnr no intervals.
However, this still allows ranges using the multiple selection box, and also allows the "not equal to" option.
Adding the "no-extension" syntax simply removes my ability to use multiple individual entries.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jon

Can't get COM2 to work on 845G MAX

I'm running the 845G MAX with a 2.26 P4 and 512mb RAM on WinXP Pro.
I am unable for get any I/O through COM2. To test the ports, I'm using HyperTerminal over a null modem cable to a laptop. When running this config, I have no problem communicating over COM1. However, when I switch to COM2, I get nothing. Strangely, the software recognizes COM2 as being there and active, but I can't get it to communicate.
I am using a connector that terminates to a DB-9 male and fits perfectly in the COM2 port on the motherboard. In the BIOS, I tried setting the Super I/O setting for Serial Port B to both auto and also forcing COM2. Nothing.
And the strange part to me is that any software I run seems to recognize COM2 as being active, it just cannot communcate over it.
Any ideas?

Try swapping the pins in the cable (ie. 1 with 2, 3 with 4, 5 with 6, etc). Also, the pinout in the manual is wrong:
Wrong:1 2
3 4
5 6
7 8
9
Right: 1 6
2 7
3 8
4 9
5
Worked for me!
Good luck.
