RX 480 NEO2-F won't boot

I just put this sys together to run Win Home Server. It won't boot with WHS install disk. I have got it working with unRaid Linux, so I know it works. It just gives me a blank screen after posting.
RX 480 NEO2-F aka MS 7151
2- 512 RAM
A64 3500
450 PSU
nVidia 6200 128TC
2 WD750G HDD
1 Seagate 320G
I did a search and not one post about this board???
Thanks,
Bob Howell

Have you configure your boot device properly?
Make sure that you are trying to boot from correct optical drive.(If you have more than one)
Does the optical drive is detected during BIOS post?
Make sure that disk in drive is bootable..

[865PE NEO2 PFISR] Won't boot with added memory

Recently I upgraded a few items on my PC which has been running fine for 18 months or so. I changed out the video card and bought double the memory of the same brand and type it had in it. I went from 1gig (2 sticks) and added two more sticks. But now it won't boot. The power is on but no output whatsoever.
I RMA'd the memory thinking that might be the problem but it's the same with the new set. I tried all sorts of memory/slot combos. Basically, the new memory works fine if you swap it out in bank A with the old stuff. That's how it's running right now, so I know all of the sticks are good. I can take a third and put it in either slot bank B and it'll boot, but obviously not run properly. But any combination of these four sticks and the system won't boot!
Please help!
I'm running this system:
Win XP (SP1 I believe)
865PE NEO2 PFISR
P4/3.0CGHz, 800M 478P/512K HT
DDR Corsair 512MB X4 (400)
Dual 80gb samsung HDs running SATA
Sapphire X800GTO 256M video card
Antec Sonata case
TruePower 380Watt ATX12V

What brand, model, and speed are the RAM sticks. Did you check your Test Report booklet which came with the mobo. If you can't find it, you can go to the MSI website and look for your MOBO and get the test report that way. Some brands/models will that have been tested are shown in the report to be okay in all 4 slots, some only test okay in 2 or 3. Check this report and if it is one of the brands/model/speed tested you will see how it fared. It may well be you the MOBO doesn't like your RAM in 3 or 4 slots.
Maybe I missed it, but did you try each slot with only one stick at a time? You may also have a bad RAM slot.

MSI P35 Neo2-FR Won't Boot From CD

Just received my new board which aside from the problem, is fantastic! It's an MSI P35 Neo2-FR
I've got DVD drive to first in the boot sequence and it prompts me to press any key to boot from CD however when I press any key it just hangs on press any key. Got some advice from a friend and he told me to load optimized defaults however it doesn't make a difference.
Help?

Hello,
Could be a few things.
Make a list of everything that you are using with the board so that we know what you have.
EG, look at the bottom of my post.
Do you have a floppy drive?
http://www.memtest.org/download/2.01/memtest86+-2.01.floppy.zip
- Extract all the files to a folder.
- Run the install file and it will create a memtest boot disk for you.
- Then boot from the floppy disk and let the program run for a while (4 hours+)
- If it detects any errors instantly stop and report back here. (or try 1 stick at a time)
CD or USB versions available here.
http://www.memtest.org/#downiso
But it is important that we know what else you are using with the board.
Could be a weak power supply or you are using different branded memory modules.
And did you plug all the power connectors into the board?
- 24pin ATX
- 8pin +12v EPS connector
- Molex near the first PCIE x16 slot.
Just incase this thought has crossed your mind,
Do not attempt to the flash the BIOS until you know the system is 100% stable/working
Molex near PCI-E X16 slot? I didn't plug that in no. What's it for may I ask?

Neo2 fis2r won't boot????

I just bought and recieved my new Ne02 FIS2R

Seems like a common theme. :( I'm in the same boat. I am swapping out my RAMM from 3700 to 3200LL to see if that helps. I know people are using 3700 though. We'll see in a few days when the RAMM comes in.

K8N Neo2 Plat won't switch on

My K8N Neo2 Platinum won't boot anymore
I originally thorugh the problem was that the power supply had died, but I've just bought a new case with an ANTEC power supply and it still won't turn on. I've tried:
- disconnecting everything that's connected to the board except for the RAM and the CPU
- removing the battery
- clearing the BIOS using the jumper
Does anyone else have any suggestions? I'm desperate here and getting behind on my work

My 1st Neo 2 I had the same issue and I tried everthing including new PSU (@600) and no joy . I returned and got another one, it worked for a few hours then died killing a new PSU also . So I returned it and got a 3rd Neo 2, it worked great for a week or so then it started "NOT" assigning IRQs to anything in the PCI slots for some crazy reason so I have RMA'd it back to MSI Now get this I was not OCing anything oh well if MSI can't fix it then DFI's new NF3 ultra MB will be getting shipped to my house quick It's been a week and no word from MSI oh well

Won.t boot nada thing

HI all, i really hope someone out there can give me some light on why my 865pe won't boot i have the newiest bios 1.9 yesterday i was on line with it and then something came on about saying there was a problem with my viv card (ati 9500)
then the computer froze..i went to reboot it and it stops. the d-bracket code says initializing vidio interface?..... i have changed memory, hard drive powwr supply you name it i change it and still no go will not boot past the 3 red and one green on the the d-bracket. Help :(
865PENEO2-FIS2R
OCX DDR 530 DUEL CHANEL
INTEL PENTIUM 4 2.6 ATI 9500 PRO VID CARD
VANTEC 470 WATTER POWER SUPPLY
MAXTOR 160 GIG SATA HDD

My MSI Neo2-FISR 865 board was working fine out of the box. Then a couple of days later I'm browsing online and my screen goes blank. A reboot results in a loud siren/klaxon type sound where the mobo keeps beeping and beeping (never heard a beep code like it before!)
I check all my connections, worried that the problem is my graphics card (ATI all-in-wonder 9700 pro) and still no luck.
I find these forums and read about the d-bracket and how the four LED's will light up and help you figure out your problem. I install it and find all four are lit RED, meaning there's a problem with my cpu.
I test my cpu in another system and it works JUST FINE! I test the cpu from that system on my MSI board, and it doesn't work. I try swapping my Corsair XMS on the MSI for Geil from my other system, no help.
After testing my components from the MSI system on my other system, there is nothing wrong with them. I can only conclude that since others have had the MSI board report a false problem with their CPU or whatnot, that there is something definetly wrong in the design of this board. After only a couple of days it dies on me! :(
I'm RMA'ing it back to newegg.com and getting an Intel 865PERL instead, at least Intel boards are known for their rock-solid stability. It's too bad, I really wanted to like this board. :(
Oh yeah, and clearing the CMOS didn't solve squat!

Bios Hangs, Won't Boot!

Hi, I have a Neo2/P4 combo that has been working fine for about 3 weeks. This morning Windows XP crashed and now it won't boot back up. The bios hangs for like 5 minutes after checking the hard drives.
I've gone into the bios and reloaded the setup defaults. Same problem. Does this sound like a hardware problem? What can I do to help determine where the problem is?
I don't think it is a software problem because it never even makes it to the "starting windows" section.
I've pulled all cards out but my video, and removed all hard drives but my bootable one.
Now what??

Hi,
Unplug hard drive.......
If you can boot up, then it is a disk problem
This could be:
1) Virus
2) Hard Disk BAD sectors
3) You updated a driver, that windows does not accept....
Please post more info, no matter how silly you think.....no silly questions here, just good answers.
If you can, add signature, go to your profile, then sig tab, please browse mine and create you own.....best of all!!! It's free

Neo2 that won't - Help Appreciated

I've got a NEO2 Platinum with AMD 3500+ in an Antec Sonata (380W) case. Machine has been working fine for the past 4+ months. All of a sudden it won't boot past the inital post screen. I've cleared the cmos and removed any extra components and it still hangs with the D-Bracket signaling that it's at the Init Floppy Drive Controller (#2 Red, all other Green). The memory shows good, CPU seems OK per the displayed bios screen. With the only problem indicator being "Bad CMOS checksum - Defaults loaded". It says to hit F1 to continue or Del to enter setup.
This is a brand new system as of 12/2004.
The system has a single WD 80 gid hard drive, 1 gig of corsair XMS ddr400, ATI Radeon 9700 Pro, Plextor 716A burner. System has been run at nominal setting (no over-clock).
I'm at a loss here. What should my next step be?
Thanks,
Brian

Finally got a second to sit down and play with the system... and managed to get her working again. Looks like the USB keyboard was part of the issue. I luckily had an old PS2 keyboard in the closet and I plugged it in after clearing the CMOS by removing the battery. After reboot, it hung in the same place, however, with the PS2 keyboard, I could hit the DEL key and the system jumped into the bios.
I reset the bios to fail-safe and rebooted. This time the system booted up normally. I did a quick check of the system and then re-booted and updated the bios setting to something more appropriate. Still pretty tame settings though. A second reboot and the system came up fine. I then plugged the USB keyboard back in and XP installed it.
The final reboot - pulled the PS2 keyboard out and everything is back up and running. Don't know why things got hosed... maybe it was all the DOOM 3 that I played the night before.
Anyway... thanks for the thoughts and support. Always helps to have a sounding board and folks that have some good experience to share.
Regards,
Brian

Bios updated and now K8N Neo won't boot? FIXED!

Successfully restored from backup (after some hassles!), but thanks to everyone who helped.
Having messed with the bios some more, I *think* I now know what the problem was. And *blush*, I think it was my fault all along *blush*.
I think I had one of the drives selected at the top in Hard Disk Boot sequence, instead of the SCSI - Raid Array.
That would mean it was only reading half the MBR at boot time which would kindof explain the problems I was having.
Still, we live and learn. Thank God for backups!
Cheers all
Chippy
I hope someone can please help me?
I just upgraded my K8N Neo2 bios from 1.4b to Easybios 1.3c (or whatever its called).
I took all the proper precautions and the bios update itself has worked just fine. My system is "working" OK.
However, I can't boot. The system POSTs fine, detects the raid0 array just fine and then falls over with an MBR 1 error and an MBR 3 error.
I booted from the XP install CD and loaded up recovery console, and I can log on to the array. The array and all data is fine.
So it looks like its just the MBR record that is screwed. Is this because of some incompatibiliy between my old and new bios?
And anyway, please does anyone know how to fix it? I suppose I can try to rebuild the MBR somehow, but I don't know how. And I really DO NOT want to risk losing all of the data on the array. Yes, I have a full back up, but I don't want to end up having to rely on it!
Has anyone seen this problem before when doing a bios update? And any ideas how to fix it?
(I guess I could flash back to 1.4b, but I really would like a later bios version to go with my new - as yet untested - Opty 146).
Thanks

Thanks for the tip, Doc. But I have entered the bios settings from scratch.
I can try it again, but why do you think that might work? There really aren't two many sata and raid settings to make - all you have to do is enable the two channels (sata3 and sata3) and then enable them also in the raid menu. That's it. And the board "sees" the raid array just fine, its just it won't boot anymore. I can read and write to the array no problem from Windows Recovery Console, so I conclude that the hardware is all working properly. I think its an MBR incompatibility issue between the two bios versions... or maybe MBR corruption.
I seem to remember some people having problems with this a year or so ago when upgrade this bios from 1.4 to 1.5. Some people were having to do complete Windows reinstalls to fix it. That was why I didn't update my bios sooner.
But I asked around this time and it seemed those problems had been resolved.
Seems I was mistaken!
Any other thoughts / suggestions?
Thanks

New Mobo- Now OS won't boot

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here are my specs that i have now:
865PE NEO2-FIS2R
FX5600-VTD256
WD800 (w/ 8mb cache)
Intel 2.6 (Northwood)
300 Watt PSU (i don't know what info is relevant)
Ram 256 (333) i think - I don't know how to check the specs
WinXP Pro (upgraded from 98SE)
Problem:
I had all MSI components before. I brought over the HDD that had XP Pro on it. First time up it just boot up to the Safe Mode screen. 2 Beeps then a reboot to the Safe Mode again, and it keeps doing this. Note: the new mobo didn't do the regular system inventory, proc speed, ram etc. But the BIOS found everything.
Tried a boot disk, it then said that the OS had problems and couldn't boot.
I am a little fuzzy on the BIOS, so if you can help me out. I am not messing with RAID or SATA. Are there any specifics I should know. I did set ram voltage to 2.7.
I tested the Western Dig HDD and with their diag and it came out perfect. I tried to repair XP but it fails everytime. Here is the error that it gives. C:\$WIN_NT$.~LS\I386\asms "One of the components Windows needs to continue setup could not be installed."
I was beginning to think it was Gates' fault (imagine that). But then i dropped in a Win2K HDD that i had tested on another system at work. And the new HDD won't boot up either. It tries to boot up, the Win2K screen flashes and then straight to a Blue Screen. It says "Inaccessible_BOOT_Device"
Help Please!!! Let me know what other info might be helpful.
[email protected]

Well, i did finally get it to take the OS. But it would not boot to the HDD. When you first start up the pc it sets on autodetect of the primary for over 30 seconds and never finds it. You could manual boot to the HDD by a F11. I finally figured out how to flash the bios, so now i am up to date on that.
Now it will boot to the hdd, but it takes over 2 minutes and a lot of just black screen. Is there a setting I am missing in the BIOS?
I am not running any sata or raid configs. Could someone give me the basic setup for this, especially where the ide config is concerned. Or why it is taking so long to boot up. I know it isn't normal for my 1.6 never took that long.
Thanks for all of your help.

Computer Won't Boot Up

Here is my issue, my computer one day was working fine and the next it won't boot properly.
System Specs: Satellite T235D-S1345RD (Laptop) - Windows 7 (64bit) - BIOS 1.7 - 4gb RAM -
I have gotten the computer booted one time. I am unsure why it did that time but did not do it another time.
Since that one time I put the computer in hibernate and when I tried to bring it out it told me it failed when coming out of hibernate so it went to reboot and now won't boot.
Here are the few steps I have done to try and get it working. When it boots up it gives me an error message (says that power failed or for some reason it did not boot)
I have ran "Repair Computer" and it does not do anything. I try start windows normally and it goes no where.
So I then tried F8 and got into the Advanced Boot Menu. First one I tried was Start Windows From Last Known Good Configuration. (or something like that I forget the exact wording)
When it does that the computer will start to boot up go to the "Windows Loading" screen and then it flashes a blue screen (there are words there but it flashes so quickly I cannot read it) and it goes back to the boot screen and acts like it is restarting and continues in that loop.
Next step - Enter F8 again tried "Repair Computer" and it loads to a black screen with a Cursor but nothing ever happens. I have given it over 30 min and nothing happens.
So next step- I enter F8 again and try to boot up in safe mode and again when it loads it flashes a blue screen and then nothing.
EDIT - I found how to show the blue screen. It says UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME. Not sure what else I should do after I get that error message. Message Reads:
It reads UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME and says if it's the first time I've seen the error screen, to restart the computer. Then it tells me if it appears again, to check and make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.
"If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode."
END EDIT
Next Step: I come to you guys here on this forum. I am a bit perplexed and lost at what to do. I wonder if this is a virus but I cannot get the computer to respond to try to get into it to check.
Ideas? Advice? What should I try? I can get into the F8 menu but not sure what else I should try. I will try anything to get this computer up and running!
Thanks for any and all help.

Hi:
The 24 character failure ID usually indicates HDD is failing/has failed. You need to replace it with a new one.
Specs: http://support.hp.com/in-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dv6-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-series/5191856/model/5...
Manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03099531
Check warranty: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/weInput?cc=us&lc=en
Order recovery USB: http://support.hp.com/in-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dv6-6c13cl-Entertainment-Notebook-PC/5191856/model/5...
Contact HP: https://support.hp.com/in-en/contact-hp/product/HP-Pavilion-dv6-6c00-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-serie...
If you're under warranty, HP would send you replacement HDD.
If you're not, buy any branded 2.5" SATA 9.5mm thick internal laptop HDD and replace it yourself. But HDD of at least same capacity HDD as the one that came with your laptop (640gb) so that recovery media would work -
Go through page 56-58 in the Manual for replacement procedure. It's quite simple DIY job.
Something like this:
http://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=N82E16822236561
If you've not yet created the Recovery media to restore the factory settings after replacement, you have to order a set of Recovery USB from HP.
For salvaging the data from old HDD, I suggest you take out the drive. Connect it to another PC using SATA to USB adapter - copy all the files you need.

Satellite m300 won't boot! please help!

Hi,
I've got a bit of an issue here.. I have a Satellite m300.. a white one..
and it won't boot... I've had this very issue before but it turned out to be an external USB HDD that stopped it from booting up but now even with everything removed it still won't boot.
And it was fine until yesterday, it just gave up.. I am away from home for work so I have all the work stuff and unfortunately without my recovery cd, but my guess is that it won't even read it..
So this is what happens..
turn on..
all light come on.. including power and all the white lights around the keypad..
and then maybe 5 sedconds later caplock and numlock(?) green lights flash..
then it's a dead still.. no HDD activities or sound.. just dead quite..
the screen remains black blank through out..
it seems to get stuck here before reaching the post screen.
i thought the power button usually took more than just a push to turn off? it instantly swithces off with a single push of the power button..
I think this laptop is like on sleep or something and can't seem to wak up.. maybe?
And it has vista.
Please help.. I have some important work files I need to recover at least before formatting..
and that has to wait till I get home which won't be for a month or so..
which also lets me take it back for warranty as well..
any help appreciated!!!
cheers,
Min

Just removed all components. I reset the CMOS. I then reconnected the 20pin and 4pin, 1 stick ram, and the video card (no ide devices, no mouse, keyboard cd drives) and the monitor doesn't show up. I also tried another monitor so it isn't the monitor.
Could it have a bad AGP port?
Any other suggestions? I am thouroughly stumped. Also the power and reset buttons don't work no matter what configuaration I put the front panel connectors in. The Power LED is lit up and it doesn't work and the reset light is off and it doesn't work.
Also noticed one of my fans connected to one of the two other fan pins on the motherboard isn't working.
What a nightmare.

Mid 2010 MacBook Pro won't boot past blue screen

I've been having problems booting up my MacBook. I can't get past the blue screen. It went from booting slow at the grey apple logo screen to not booting up at all. Is it a problem with my hard drive? I also have boot camp running as well, but I can still see the boot camp drive for windows and my OS X drive, as well as my installation disk when I have it inserted when I hold the option key at start up.
I'm still able to run windows on it without any problems when I pick the windows drive. I tried different methods from different forums but I'm just not getting through. I tried holding 'c' to boot up from cd and I let it run over night but it never got past the grey apple screen with the gradient wheel (still spinning). I had already used time machine to back everything up before this happened since I was able to boot up properly (but slowly). Can anyone help? It's driving me nuts, and I can't remember what os/firmware version I'm running.

n your signature you said you are running 10.6.3. So let’s assume you are running Snow Leopard.
It sounds like your diagnosis of disk problems is correct. The OS X partition may be corrupt.
Try booting in Safe Mode.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
Try again to boot in normal mode.
If it will boot in Safe Mode but not in normal mode then you could have some 3rd-party software preventing the boot or you could have a corrupt disk or OS.
Boot as from the startup manager (Boot - option) and then select the installation disk.
Hopefully that will work better than starting with the Boot-C option.
Then try to repair the system disk.
Start the Disk Utility.
Perform the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5836.
If it repairs OK but still won’t boot reinstall OS X.
