Replace K7N2-L with MSI K7N2 Delta FSR Socket A nforce2

Hi I think my Mainboard has fried , if this seems to be the case I will have to replace soon , I was wondering if I replaced my Existing K7N2-L Nforce 2 board for the MSI K7N2 Delta FSR Socket A nforce2 , will my Operating system realize that ive change boards , Its just i recall going from one Board to another in the past and I ended up having to reformatt my Machine as i was getting all sorts of problems ..
i have recently Formatted and I dont want to do it agian , I have a spare board but its a SIS chipset , and wont support my CPU or My Kids CPU .. Any help would be great Cheers Kurvz

You will need to do a repair install of Windows, and you will need to reinstall the mobo drivers. Formatting isn't necessary, and was probably not the last time either. A repair install will not damage any of your important files, and you will not need to reinstall other programs (perhaps a few monitoring programs), but the updates you made to Windows will be gone.

XFX GeForce 7600GS 512mb AGP with MSI K7N2 Delta Problem

Hi, I have been searching in everyplace and still I havent find a solution.
I have the XFX GeForce 7600GS 512mb AGP card.
I use the MSI K7N2 Delta.
My Processor its the AMD 2600+ XP
my PSU its a 420watt
my RAM its 2gb DDR 400
I made everything in the bios, didnt work.
I updated the lastest drivers and bios, didnt work.
I went to a friend house, he use a P4 motherboard with 500watts. Worked, PERFECTLY.
I changed the card once (the first one didnt worked at all) but this one worked...
now the question is:
HOW I MAKE IT WORK IN MY PC ?????????
Can anyone help me? I dont wanna sell it to a friend for only 60$ (that the only costumer I have found for the card in Panama)

Heh I had problems with trying to see again was what happening in my PC but yesterday....
Ok I went to my friend house, we used the card with his 350 watts 15A in the 12V+ and it worked.
Then we tried to install the PSU but I dont know why its 4pin was incompatible with mine....
Well heres the important part: I went to a local Computer Store where they repair too and with another more powerfull PSU in my PC and the card didnt worked for seconds, but the guy played a little with my Ram and he noticed that its posible to that be the problem. Remember that my ram its a Kingston 400DDR 2X1 Gb running in the purple and the green slots of the mobo. when we changed them to both purples slots of the mobo the PC dosent work and make a the beep sound. I have the braket in my computer and it showed a red dot here: GR
GG
Gonna search the manual to know what that means.

Help with MSI K7n2 Delta2 Platinum

Hi everyone,
I need some help with my system, actually I'm having troubles with my machine, often it restarts or freezes so I have to restart it manually.I own a MSI K7n2 Delta2 Platinum, AMD Athlon XP 3000+, 1 GB DDR-400 CORSAIR, ATI Radeon 9800 PRO 128MB AGP. Recently I did a clean install of Windows XP but usually I work for an hour and suddenly it restarts, and after logging in, Windows reports a log event problem; I think I have this problem because of the drivers, so I would like you to help me. Where I can get the best/last drivers for the mainboard and video card? Should I flash the bios? Is common this kind of problems? Help me please.
Thanks!

sortieins, please start an new thread and make a complete listing of your compoenents including your PSU and the amps on the various voltage rails, especially the +12V rail(s).

[VIA] Problems with MSI KT6 Delta

MSI KT6 Delta
AMD XP 2000+
256 MB DDR 400
GeForce FX5200 128 MB DDR
I installed WinXP+SP1 and VIA4in1 v4.55 with NVIDIA 66.93 drivers. The screen fades out and in less than a second the picture shows up again.
Note: What should appear in device manager in section "System devices" after installing VIA4in1 v4.55?
I tried: changing video card, RAM memory, installing WinXP+SP2 (worse results!)
Thanks in advance

The system reports no errors nor conflicts in Device Manager window. This problem appeared when I did an upgrade from WinXP SP1 to SP2. I use Fedora Core on the same computer with NVIDIA drivers installed and there were no problems. I tried to change the monitor but it was the same. I think I managed to solve the problem by installing WinXP SP1 and an older NVIDIA driver (version 4.5.2.3) and VIA 4in1 pack 4.55. Everything runs smooth for now.

G4Ti4200-VTD64 voltage incompatibility with MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR??

Hello,
I have the MSI G4Ti4200-VTD64 (4X) video card.. I want to upgrade my motherboard to K7N2 Delta-ILSR. Is there any voltage incompatibility?? I heard that new mother boards will support only AGP 1.5V. Is the AGP voltage of K7N2 Delta-ILSR 1.5volts?? Is my video card compatible with this voltage?? I really want to retain my current video card as I am quite satisfied with it and I'm not willing to invest on a new one at the moment. If there is an incompatibility could you suggest another Socket A MB with good performance and SATA RAID support.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Joseph

Joseph,
All 4X Vid Cards work on all 4X and 8X mobos. All 4X mobos work with all 4X and 8X Vid Cards.
Take Care,
Richard

Lock Ups with MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR [Resolved] thnx!

Well this is a first for me and it is driving me nucking futs !,
I have been building my own pc's for at least 10 years now and never had a problem where I have even needed to come to a forum like this. So as I see there are some very helpful and knowledgable peeps (nice work guys) here I thought I would ask as I have read through all stickies etc... and have not actually seen an answer to the problems of locking up. I am fast forming the opinion that this motherboard has a serious problem that MSI have not fixed yet. Anyway here is some info on the spec and what I have tried so far :
Have checked for viruses...
Did a fresh format and re-install...
Unplugged all that is not essential to run...
Symptoms..
Cannot write files to make a DVD in any authoring program.. it locks up after about 5 minutes
Locks up in most Games, some run for 5 mins then other times run for hours
Cannot run some setup.exe files (Like Zone Alarm Pro)
Sometimes (locks up just surfing)
Microsoft Word seems to mess up a lot and have to run the repair option..

I am about seriously considering giving this board some cement legs and drowning it ! This is my first (and probably last) MSI board and cannot believe the problems so many seem to have. Maybe best and quickest option is to do just that and go buy a decent board.
Any help much appreciated.

Hi,
First of all thanks to all for the help, and CJLittle...LMAO ! My car is a Scooby and a nice blue paint job ! Believe it or not they assured me all this would work.. I bought it in one package and even questioned it. Also to be fair up until then they had always been very good... shows they have no zero about 3200XP 200 fsbetc... When I went back with the power supply and told them they changed it out and let me off on the extra money it should have been.
The crashes are as follows :-
[list=1]
Locks up after random amounts of time in games, sometimes dont even get to load it up at all, other times I can play 2 hours. When the games lock up usually there is a high pitch squeal and can only get out of it by reset or power off.
I cannot install Zone Alarm Pro or Agnitum Outpost are 2 anyway (there are others) these just come up with the installer screen and hangs there, I have to go to Task Manager to close them down, unlike the lock up in games.
The cooler is the Coolermaster Jet... and the temperature is more than acceptable (right now is 44 C) so I cannot see that at all being a factor.
leds are on on the d bracket when it locks, I did not know of this function and will check it out. Thanks for that tip.[/list=1]
Question from me: would the 2700 RAM cause these lockups ? I would have thought it would just not work at all ? If this is possible then I will go and change out the RAM as tuning it down to 166 (if it is possible) does not appeal to me ! But yes it may show what the problem is.
Thanks again, will see what happens...

Problems with MSI K7N2 DELTA ILSR

I set my bios to high performance defaults and now when i turn it on the diagnosis LED's say that the processor, then the RAM are damaged, but this isnt the case as i have tested them in a different machine and they are ok. I have tried clearing the CMOS using the jumpers but nothing happens. I have read on here that the way to solve this problem is to set the CPU FSB jumper to 100mhz... could somebody please tell me if there are any other usjestions about how to solve this please...

Get something like a 2700+, I've got one, if I OC the FSB by 5, I achieve the performance of a 3200+, I can go higher, but I don't want to until I get a volcano 12, soon.

Help please ..

You can test the memory by downloading this program,
http://www.memtest.org/download/1.40/memtest86+-1.40.floppy.zip
Creates a bootdisk which you must boot from. (Disk cannot be read in windows)
If the PSU cannot provide enough power then running the memory at a lower frequency can help, as 333Mhz uses less power than 400Mhz.
Test the memory at 333Mhz and see if you get any errors, maybe ask a friend to run the memory at 400Mhz with memtest.
If it does run at 400Mhz (200Mhz) without any errors then it is not faulty.
From this point forward you will always test any memory modules that you buy with memtest.
It is a very useful program.

MSI KLN2 DELTA problem hangs after testing RAM

I currently purchased the MSI K7N2 DELTA-L (Motherboard) NFORCE2 CHIPSET DDR400 and for the cpu im using an athlon 1800+ and i just purchased some pc 3200(ddr400)of 1 gig(stick by Samsung) and i have a problem during boot up it's a really weird problem as soon as it says testing memory it goes up to 1048 detecting the 1 gig and it says ok saying single Channel and then as soon as it says detecting ide hard drives it hangs up. I can't even acess CMOS now i have had the problem for over a week, & send the motherboard back to xtreme gear that i bought, & they send me a new motherboard and it's the same problem. So I'm thinking that the mother board doesn't like the ram i purchased I have tested the ram on another system that supports pc3200 except it was on a system w/ a pentium 4 and it worked perfectly on that system. i have also put samsung 512 mb stick and same problem, does any one have suggestions or solutions, is samsung just not compatible with msi k7n2 delta series mother board or what else can it be, I can't update the bios cause right after or even sometimes b4 it says detecting ide hard drives it hangs up any solutions??????
The link to the ram i bought is
http://store.yahoo.com/dccsale/sa1gpc400mhz.html & I've tested it on a p4 motherboard with a pentium 2.6 and it worked perfectly but maybe its not the ram maybe the bios on the msi k7n2 deltas are very glitchy???

Do u think it might be cause im using an athlon 1800+ or is it my 1024 mb or 1 gig pc 3200 sometimes i do get something in the screen but right after testing the ram it hangs up or even if it says detecting the ide hard drives and nothing after that i know my vga card is fine i know my ram is fine and it's abviously not a hard drive issue so not sure what the problem is and it's basically impossible to flash the bios if i cant get in or even to load up where it checks the floppy... The only thing is if my cpu was bad i think nothing at all would load on the screen, but if it's possible i guess what esle can i do should i spend $150 and get a faster cpu like an athlon 2700+

Self restarting on KT880 DELTA FSR while playing 3d Games

Hello, got this problem ..
when playing 3d games, computer restarts itself .. it's about after 5 minutes playing.
MSI KT880 DELTA FSR
MSI FX5750 ULTRA 3
HDD WD 120GB S-ATA
CPU 2500+ Barton
APACER 512Mb 400Mhz CL 2.5
PSU JJ 400W (good amps)
LG GSA DVD+-RW
FDD ALPS 3.5"
i thought it can by by weak PSU, but i change it by better PSU and nothing - problem remains. So I tried put other GPU (FX5600VTDR) and problem still remains :-(
WHat now ?
I thing it can be only by the BIOS version . cause on board is old version 1.3 and on the same configurated computer (except DVD-RW) is 1.6 and everyting works.
Any help ?
thanx
PS: All new drivers are installed, like a Hyperion, etc.

Hello,
I am not quite sure,
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=600&kind=1
Bios updates dont fix any important issues
Try this and test your memory.
http://www.memtest.org/download/1.26/memtest86+-1.26.floppy.zip
any errors means that the ram is faulty.
Do you have any other ram to use the in kt880?

MSI KT6-Delta FIS2R Broadcom doen't accept any driver

I've problem with MSI KT6-Delta FIS2R networkcard Broadcom doen't accept any driver, anyone help me.

I've got the same problem with the 4401 onboard lan of my Kt6 delta lsr.
I ran the dos-diag tool from the broadcom website and it reported an error
in the 3. test.
It reported an invalid mac-address (ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff) as well.
I can't get it to work in linux either.
Either the board is damaged or the bios is buggy (v3.4).
I would really appreciate if someone could tell me how to fix this.
Are there different verisons of the kt6?
I've got version 2.0.

Where you can see AGP/PCI frequency?
I havent got FSB high enough to see it in windows,but in memtest86+ i started to get picture corruption @ 240MHz FSB.
I´m still trying to get this run stable, atm i´m running 12x205MHz and uptime is about 10hours.
I´m not sure anymore is it this 2-phase power regulation which makes all these random boots.
Last boot was at 12x210MHz 2.0V and i was running EpoX 8K3A+ 12x212MHz 1.95V.
