Replacement board.

Hi there,
I got tired of my Asrock ConRoe865GV board - these temp sensors are freaking out of me - long story. And the fan is outta control too, kept whirring like mad. My other board didn't actually do this, so maybe it's the board. Thinking of getting rid of it once and for all, and sell it to a used comp dealer.
So back to MSI - I need replacement board with AGP and DDR slot, but all I get in my stores are PM8M3-V.
I heard that the PM8M2/3-V are only supporting Celerons, but in the CPU support matrix, there are even more Pentium 4s supported.
Btw, is my Pentium 4 531 (specifically 3.0GHz, 1MB cache, Prescott, 90nm) good to sit on that board? ANyone with these boards with P4 sitting on it?
Or I should get a PM8PM-V? Agh, eeed to recycle my beautiful RAM sticks...
p.s: Also I've owned a PM8M2-V, and it's running sweet and nice on my Celeron D 331, but wanted more of it (games, games, games) so I changed the system.

clickme>>PM8M3-V CPU Support List<<clickme
Pentium 4 (64-bit, Prescott, FSB800, L2 Cache 1MB)

  • 925XE Neo Platinum-54G - 2nd RMA replacement, board locks up

    I would really appreciate any assistance anyone can provide about the problems I'm having with this mobo, I'm ready to toss it. This one is the 3rd RMA replacement; the first one failed within 7 months of purchase and the replacement that MSI sent for that one failed within 3 months after receiving it. The current board locks up my system after boot; the time to lock up is anywhere from 15 seconds to 3 minutes. I have hooked up only bare minimum components to the board to reduce the possibility that it's a compnent issue, but everything else in my system has been working fine. System specs are:
    Intel 3.2 ghz single core proc
    Geil DDR2 SDRAM 533 (PC2 4300) 3 x 1gig sticks
    Sapphire RADEON 7000 64meg PCI video card
    Creative Soundlbaster Audigy 2 ZS sound card
    Maxtor DiamondMax 200gig SATA drive (3x)
    Let me know what other information you might need to help. Thank you to anyone that can help.

    Memtest ran for 8 1/2 hours, here is what is hightlighted in red below the test data:
    Tst    Pass    Failing Address                 Good                  Bad                  Err-Bits            Count    Chan

    I have 3, 1gig sticks of Geil RAM, how do I determine which one has the fault? Could this be the cause of board lock-up?
    I can't get to the power supply to see the lable information.

  • Thanks Tuus! -- T61 replacement board

    I wanted to make a new thread, not only thanking Tuus, but to let others know that it is possible to get a fix for dead or dying T61s. There are other threads on this but I'd like to share my experience.
    I got my T61p about 4 years ago and it had worked like a charm, with only a minor battery issue, for all those years. A few months ago (while abroad in the UK) it just decided to quit on me. The bios beeps on booting said it was a video chip issue, and that's exactly what was up. Thankfully my HD wasn't affected and I waited until I was home to figure out what to do. After loads of searching on the issue (which is prevalent) I saw posts on here thanking Tuus and about the fix. So I sent him a message which he quickly replied to. He explained that these boards (prior to 08/08) have a known faulty nvidia chip and they usually kick it earlier than mine did. I have started PC gaming more in the few months before it died so I assume it was a heat issue, which I now keep an eye on using TPfancontrol.
    Through contacting Tuus I got my hands on an 08/08 system board with the entire bottom case along with it. It was a lengthy process to take apart my old machine and put the new bottom on, but if you follow the manual on Lenovo's site for your system, it's a piece of cake. Just set aside an hour or two and you'll be fine. The best advice I can give to stay organized with it all is to print the pages you need from the manual, and then tape the parts/screws to the corresponding paper. Then lay them out on a flat surface in order. When you get to the end of the disassembly, you just go in reverse to put it back and if you kept everything in order and together, it's really easy. Just remember to clean the contact of the old CPU and transfer it to the new system board and put thermal paste on the GPU. Tuus recommend Arctic Silver 5, which I thankfully had and used myself.
    My new board works perfectly. This nvidia chip also is known to not be faulty so I have no worries about it dying out soon, and it also fixed my battery issue that I had since I purchased it. It's safe to say my knew board had made my laptop better than when I originally purchased it. It also helps that I used the new bottom case so now my laptop has the 08/08 model sticker and will have a higher sell price. But I'm not going to be doing that anytime soon.
    For those interested, by battery issue was with the small backup on the system board. It wouldn't hold power so I would have to unplug the cord, take the battery out, wait a few seconds, put the battery in, turn it on, then put the plug back in every time I was booting from a charge. So if you are having similar issues, that's most likely your problem there.
    Thanks again Tuus! You were extremely helpful, answered all my questions and helped me get my hands on a fantastic new system board! You're the best!
    I hope this helps a few of you out as well!! There is hope for your T61!

    You're very welcome, I'm glad I was able to help, and to find you such a rare board.
    I wish you many of years of use from it.

  • Getting a replacement board in the UK (975x Powerup)

    Guys,
    I think there is something up with my RAID controller ...
    I've been battling for weeks with getting any RAID to work on it ... the lastest is, that after putting in the drivers using the F6 method, during the GUI setup of WinXP, I get
    STOP x 000000F4 (0x00000003, xx,xx,xx)
    This looks like a RAID hardware failure ... as if I go with an IDE single drive install, I get no problems at all ... no crashes, memory problems, drive problems, X1900 problems or anything ... sweet as ... can play games all day.
    I got this board from Dabs about 2 weeks ago to the day ... I bet I have a NIGHTMARE proving this ... also, I don't see any MSI tech support or phone number for the UK.
    Any advice/thoughts ?
    Very disheartened ... gutted about this board.
    S.S.

    I am very interested in what you have to say - you might be able to help me solve this problem before I have to send this board back - tomorrow! I really *don't* want to have to send it back, as it's going to take ages to come.
    However, I really need you to talk me through it. You say 'read the manual', well, that manual I have is very basic and doesn't actually teach you anything. Yeah, I know how to play with the BIOS and I understand all the basics, but I don't understand why or what you are saying to change ... i'm a novice at these thing.
    Perhaps if you could be specific is what you are telling me to try, I could save myself a lot of heartache !
    I hope you can help ... many thanks
    S.S.

  • Replacement Logic Board

    I have to replace the logic board on my MBP. It is a 2006 model
    A1150
    SN is W864105CVWW
    2.0 GHz Core Duo
    I am seeing a bunch of replacement board options. I don't want to buy one that doesn't fit.
    If it is advertised as fitting 1.83/2.0/2.16 A1150 do I have any worries?
    I just want to swap boards and move on.
    RDS

    Hi Roger,
    If I understand correctly, you're asking if a LB from an A1150 will fit in an A1150? Yes. Do they say/do you care which speed it is? Obviously the 2.0 is going to be exactly the same (if they sell you the right part), and although I suspect there should be no problem with the slower or faster model, it's possible there's a different LB ROM which could have issues with other hardware (but I strongly doubt it). As to the specific unit you get actually functioning, I hope you can get one with a warranty on it. And don't forget the thermal paste.

  • Late 2007 MBP Logic Board Replacement (MA896LL/A)

    Hello all,
    I have a Late 2007 15" 2.4Ghz MBP (MA896LL/A), and the graphics have just died. I'm considering purchasing a new logic board, and I would like to know where you guys have gone to purchase one. How was your guys' experience with the vendor? How long did your replacement board last? Any suggestions are welcome.
    I have done a small amount of research, and I know that there was a 15" 2.6GHz model. The 2.6GHz logic board can fit in my computer, but it looks like it'll be about $100 USD more. Is it worth the upgrade?
    Thank you very much,

  • NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT - What does Apple use for replacement?

    I have had 'issues' with my display on my MBP 2.4 since Jan. '08. I've documented this w/ Applecare (so there is a list of reported issues so they can see there's a problem as it's not something I can replicate at the Genius bar). It's still under warranty, but my concern, and question is this...
    I'd like it fixed. But, If I bring in my MBP (again) to Apple and let's say they say it is the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT that's faulty, WHAT WILL THEY REPLACE IT WITH? Another 'faulty' chip? [I realize the whole board has to be replaced]
    Is there a definitive answer to what NVIDIA chip Apple would use? I've read that they are using the SAME likely-faulty product. That is not good news. And if NVIDIA has acknowledged the problem, do they have a FIXED Chipset for this model?

    My best guess is that the replacement boards also have the faulty chip. The fact that the affected MBP production run all the way to the last ones made (Sep 08) leads me to believe the there is no other option but to use the same video chips. BTW please do not assume that since the nvidia chip is soldered on the logic board that it can't be replaced. These Rev.2 boards could very well be just rebuild ones with the video chip replaced at a central workshop equipped to do such a thing.

    The OEM license is tied to the original motherboard version, ie M2N68-LA. You lose the OEM "rights" when you changed the board.

  • Replaced zd8000 motherboard and need some troubleshooting help please............

    Hello All,
     I just replaced the motherboard on our HP zd8000 (pentium 4, 3.0ghz, 2gb ram, Win XP) with a used but tested good MB and need some help with the following.
    1) I now cannot play DVD movies as the error no "dvd decoder" present which was not an issue before?  Where can I go to get a free decoder that will work, as Windows only shows paid versions?  We have the dvd burner/reader with lightscribe. SOLVED! CNET HAD DECODER.
    2) The internal temperature, according to SpeedFan, is running around 140 degrees with just some Internet browsing.  Is that a normal temperature because I only have one of three fans running on the laptop?  Is there anyway of making all three fans run to be sure there are no issues?  I am positive I hooked up everything but again only one fan seems to be running?
    3) I discovered some of the pins were damaged in the card reader.  I may get the Seller to give me a discount, no intention of tearing it apart simply for that, but is there any concern of short or otherwise?
    4) Our battery stopped charging years ago, these were notorious for such, but I purchased a new one last year and hoped the replacement MB would allow charging again.  No such luck though.  Is there anything I can do, BIOS update etc, to make the battery charge?
    5) Anything you folks can think of for me to test to insure the new motherboard is working properly?
    Thanks, Ralph 
    P.S. This was a correct replacement board according to MB serial numbers.  Everything else seems to be functioning properly other than mentioned.  Our graphics went out on the original MB.
    This question was solved.

    Some of the wires had pushed out of the harness that connected the other two fans.  I double checked and re-attached those so now the laptop is running quite a bit cooler.

  • Can I use a 16VRAM logic board in my failed 8VRAM G3 ibook 600mhz?

    Hi, my logic board has failed in my G3 ibook 600mhz, I have just managed to find a replacement board for it which has a 16VRAM in it. I have checked the box on my ibook & it says it is 8VRAM. Will the logiv board still be ok to fit/work etc?

    That post is rather misleading.
    The 8 MB logic boards probably fail less often than the 32 MB ones, from what I've seen here.
    The 16 MB logic board failures may not be seen quite as often because there were comparatively few of them produced. Apple produced many more 8 MB and 32 MB iBooks than 16 MB ones, so it stands to reason that we would not see as many reports here of 16 MB logic board failures as we do failures in the other models.
    The poster in the post cited did not say he actually installed the logic board he purchased, although that is certainly the assumption one would tend to make from the statement.

  • IMac G5 not starting up after system board install

    Six caps blew on my old system board so I ordered a new one and installed it. The system started up great and was running perfectly. However, after the 3rd or 4th reboot, there is no longer anything on the display. I can hear the power click on and after a few seconds, the fans usually start to sing.
    I have reset the SMU several times. I have taken the cover off and checked that LED #1 is on when I plug in the power cord. When I push the internal power button, LED #2 comes on and stays lit. Still there is no display.
    Can anyone make a suggestion as to what I might check next or what might be going on?
    I feel like maybe I didn't get everything plugged in securely when installing the system board, but it was working initially. Any ideas?

    It is quite possible that your replaced board is faulty, or that the caps on the power supply have now gone bad. Check every cap in the machine and see what you find.

  • Logic Board on iMac G5 busted.  What can I do?

    Hmmm where to start.
    I bought my iMac G5 in July of 2005 so it is just over a year old. About a month ago I turned my computer on and i could not get any kind of hard wired internet connection. So i turned on my air port wireless and was able to get a connection. I then turned that off and rebooted my computer and was able to log on to the hard wire just fine. This has happened three or four times since. It didn't seem like a big deal at the time. Well, I was having trouble getting any kind of internet connection just the other day (hard wire or wireless) and so I decided to take it to a mac genious at a local store. When he plugged it in and went to turn it on nothing happened. That was kinda a kick in the teeth I won't lie. So he quotes me at $861 for a new logic board. $861?!?! I don't care that I didn't buy the warrenty, that's still a ton of money... thats more than half of what I spent on the computer itself. These are great computers. They shouldnt break after just a year. I decided to sleep on it and come here to see if I could get help. I was able to put my hard drive in my room mates Power Mac so none of my information is gone. Does anybody know what I can do? I know there have been problems with logic boards in the past on the iMac G5s (as I have been reading here on the discussion boards). Does anybody know how to get the cost of repair down or how to get some compensation from apple or a replacement board or a replacement computer? I'm at a loss...
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Here is new information.
    I did not actually call apple. It was my mom who did... I'm in class all day so I had to rely on family. What she has found is that the reason the logic boards go bad is because the capasitors heat up and that is what causes to logic board to fry. Like I said I dont know squat about harware.
    The reason I did not leave my computer at the apple store is for this reason: He had quoted me a bill for $861 to replace the logic board. I asked him if he was going to call me before he made any replacement decision (no matter what they discovered the real problem to be). He said the only way they would call me was if it was not the logic board. He said that by leaving it there with them I was basically agreeing to fork up $861. So i can't even leave it there for them to run tests for fear that they will just get money happy and throw in a new logic board. I can't stress enough... I don't have that kind of money. I mean ****. New intel imacs start at 999. For that price, screw the G5.
    The genious said he doubted it was the power supply due to the internet problem history. As of now my hard drive is in my room mates power mac so i still can have access to all my school files. Thank God for good friends. I hav a friend who owns a computer repair store and he said he can get me a new logic board installed for $376. Granted thats a great price over apple, but how do I make sure that this one does not over heat? I cant be replacing LB after LB like some people have been doing here in the discussion boards. I'm tellin ya, I live a few hours from home and ive got a 96 Grand Am that isnt exactly a gem either.
    So again everybody, thanks for all fo your help. More would be greatly appreciated.
    Oh, and when I opened it up, the compter wasn't really that dusty. I was thinking it was going to be way worse.
    I apologize for my crabbiness... but its practically finals week and ive lost my greatest helper. All of your help is greatly appreciated.

  • Where can I purchase a replacement G530 motherboard

    I've been searching everywhere on the internet to find a replacement board for my G530 4446-23U system. 
    The board I need is FRU P/N: 43N8342 
    If anyone knows where I may be able to find a good replacement I'd really appreciate it.
    And yeah, I'm pretty certain the board is dead.  Earlier this week the battery stopped charging even though it's a known good battery.  The unit will continue to work while powered by battery alone, but it's started beeping telling me that the battery is getting low.  The system did not recognize that a battery was installed in windows, even with the ac power unplugged.  
    Earlier today I was using the laptop and noticed it was extremely hot.  I opened the memory cover and saw that the fan wasn't spinning and the heat sink was extremely hot.  I turned it off, removed the fan connector and plug the fan into a 9volt battery to test.  Fan is good, thus leading me to system board as root cause.  Cooled unit sufficiently with 9volt battery and leads, started machine and it loaded windows.  Downloaded the proper bios update hoping this might help and all this did was brick my machine.  It will not even post at this point.  power LED lights up, hard drive led flashes two times and machine never shows lenovo logo or anything, thus I am pretty confident the main board is the failure point. 
    if anyone knows where I can find a replacement, I'd appreciate the information.  
    Thanks

  • Received RMA board but they put on the wrong bios... nvm fixed

    So I posted here after a bad bios flash bricked my P67a-G45.
    Walked through some steps and then got an RMA authorization and I sent my board off.  I put a piece of paper in with the board asking them to put the latest ME7 Sandy Bridge friendly bios, 1.J on there.
    I called for an update during the couple of weeks MSI had it and reiterated that I would like Bios 1.J on it.
    Received the replacement board today in a mashed up box with one corner of it curled a bit so I can not use the usb slots right under the ps2 connector.
    Also with the latest ME8 bios 5.3.....
    Sigh
    I don't even care about the damage to the board as I don't need many usb ports and the board seems functional but this bios is kicking my butt.  It is super unstable when trying to run my 1600mhz ram at 1600 (same ram I had no troubles with on my earlier p67a-g45) crashing even in the bios.  If I try and overclock the cpu at all it crashes.  If I leave everything at stock it seems ok but I am not pleased with having to run everything under spec when I had no need to before.
    So I downloaded the msi forum bios flasher tool and the latest non-ME8 bios, 1.J, and loaded up my usb stick.  rebooted to the usb stick and it tells me there is a mismatch and it fails to update the bios.  I have redownloaded the bios 3 times and used 2 different usb sticks to make sure it is not the hardware.
    I don't know what to do.  I am annoyed that MSI ignored my very simple request and left me saddled with this half-usable board.
    I can't afford to resend this board back to them as I need it for my work and have lost a bunch of money already.
    If someone could give me a hand I would appreciate it.
    Should I use the regular flasher to get the 1.J bios on there since the forum tool is not working?

    Nevermind I am extremely tired and kept unraring the file.  Read a post where he tells you not too and the correct file.  Downgraded successfully and now I am going to go collapse in bed.
    This forum rocks by the way...so many helpful peeps and info!
