Maxtor DiamondMax9 40gb HDD...
i thought i had it all setup right with the HDD in IDE1, DVD and CD-RW in IDE2 and floppy in the floppy bit...
at 1st the CPU cwas only clocking at 1250mhz, but then came here and sorted that prob..... (Sperad spectrum then adjusted the FSB to 166mhz ) then after that, when i go to boot up i got.... "no device connected to the Fasttrack controller...bios not installed" then browing through the forum i found how to "solve" that problem... ( disabled the Serial ATA thing, dont know if thats right .... ) but now i dont get that "bios not installed" line any more.... all i get is a flashing line in the top left of my screen....
so to sum up....all i get now is.... that flashing line......what could be goin wrong?

Overclocking with MSI KT4 ULTRA

Hi,
I'm currently overclocking my XP 1600+ Palomino to just under an XP 2200+. My Idle temp is 39C and 47C at Load. My CPU is still locked and I'm running at 167FSB x 10.5 = 1758Mhz / 334 Mhz DDR. So far this is the highest stable overclock I am able to get with my current config. I want to get up to atleast a FSB of 180 - 185 to give my GeIL 512MB DDR433 PLATINIUM some sort of challenge, but I can't get the board to post at anything higher than 168FSB. Is it my board topping out or my CPU? What kind of overclocks is everyone else getting with their KT4 ULTRAs? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks )

Hehe so u think all is about MHz!!!????
If u think so go and get some education about overklocking!
I have reached 209FSB!!! Thats overkill!
And im running my system now on the min level x9 Multippel.
And that wil give me a damn strong and powerfull system, I can overklock it to reach the MHz frequence to but i dont right now, i must get a new mobo first, MSI is only !!!
Its up, i wil get a ABIT, or EpOX mobo. then i+ll show u :D
Hmm i have a picture if u want.
But i dont know how to make a link to it, becouse i dont have a webpage now.

Dual monitor problem with MSI 5950 Ultra

OK, I finally got the money to have a dual monitor setup.
I am using a MSI 5950 Ultra card
Soyo 600T Dragon Ultra MB
1 gb Corsair XMS 3500 ram
AMD 3000+ processor
Adaptec 2410SA SATA Raid card
4 Western Digital 74gb Raptors in RAID 0
2 V201S 20.1 inch Viewsonic LCD monitors.
XP Pro OS
I have updated all BIOS/DRIVERS on all hardware.
The problem is when I connect both monitors I get a system freeze. It is random and does not have to be event (ie mouse movement) generated. There are no event log entries. If I disconnect the analogue monitor the freezing goes away. Is this a known bug? If so when can I expect a driver/bios fix on the card? If not can anyone suggest a fix.
I have removed all non-essential cards.
THanks
Steve

Have you installed the driver of the monitor?

Problem with MSI K9N4 Ultra-F

Here's my configuration:
DualCore AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2100 MHz (10.5 x 200) 4000+
MSI K9N4 Ultra-F (MS-7310)
2XKingston (1 GB DDR2-533 DDR2 SDRAM)
Using BIOS settings I cannot overclock my CPU for a single MHz. When tried, I had to clear CMOS. Also, I tried to use ntune utilities for overclocking, but when I enter any of those utilities, my computer freezes. That started when I flashed BIOS to a newest version(before overclocking was possible). Now I can't roll it back. Is there any chance to flash previous BIOS through Windows(I'm not familiar with flashing from floppy).
What should I do?

Stop updating the BIOS.

Problems with MSI KIT4 Ultra

Dear members of this forum:
I have a problem with my mobo and i want to talk with you about it. 2 days ago, y bought a new chasis (with a new power supply (450W) to change my old one (350W) and some new components (a new modem, dvd rw and new HDD)
I removed all the components from my old chasis and passed them to new one. When i turned on my computer, WinXP started to Crash. Trying to investigate, i was removing the components (hdd conectors, lan card, modem, ect..). and the problem continues... But, at this moment, when i tried to turn on the computer for 4th time, It never come back (i cant turn on the computer) I removed everything component to reduce the complexity. Only the mobo, video and memory and i cant turn on! I removed from the new chasis and use the two power supplies (new and old ones..) and nothing. Nothing... No of the light signals ignites, i cant see the power led or some light. I tried to clear CMOS, but nothing happends... Anyone can help me? The mobo is out? I need to replace?
Thanks for help

450 W. or 350W. really doesn't say much about P.S.U.s. Better tell us how much MAX AMPS they give to 3.3, 5 and 12v. lines. When turning on, do you see any life sign ? ( Fans spinning, any light ) Try starting all install again. Remove Mobo from case and put it over an isolated surface and start with min. hardware: CPU and HSF, memory (one stick) and Video Card.

IDE 3 with MSI KT4 Ultra

Hello!!
How do I get the Promise Controler Fast Track 376 on my Board to work?
I tried to connect both of my HDD´s (not at same time!!) but he will not recognice them!! After POST it says no drives detected, or Bios ist not installed (or something like that!!!)
I just need an explicit How To, because the tips and how to´s in other Boards haven´t worked!! I haven´t tried any Bios modifications or so!! The Mobo Bios ver. number is 1,4!!
I had no probs with that Highpoint Controller! What is so different with the Promise Controller!!
Sorry for my bad english! I am from Germany! .-)

Hello!!
The Raid Controller is enabled in BIOS
The Jumper Settings are correct (As displayed on HDD!)
The drives are working currently on IDE 1 without probs! (No PSU - 420 W - probs!!)
I can only try to use SATA to PATA Converter next!!?? or?
Thanks to everybody for helping me!!

Hi,
take out your RAM stick(s), and put them back again. Try with one stick first, also try with different slots. If none of the slots work, test your RAM on other machine. It could be your RAM has fully spent its life.

MOVED: SATA RAID problems with 890GXM-G65 - Driver not accepted by win7 x64

This topic has been moved to Windows 64bit.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=139814.0

when I attempted installation I have been unplugging the current boot drive. The first screen I am given after selecting the us / english / keyboard stuff and clicking the "install now" is the screen asking for drivers.
I know that windows must be recognizing the raid drives because I could continue installation but only if I use the 32 bit drivers and corresponding os version.

MSI GeForce3 Ti200 + MSI KT4 Ultra [problems]

hi, every time i am on my computer my computer restarts and random intervals and when it returns to windows from a reboot it telss me it had a display device driver failure.........i never used to have this problem b4 and only seem to get it now since i installed my new motherboard (MSI KT4 Ultra). I did a fresh windows install and am running the latest VIA drivers, i tried all the nVidia drivers out there old/new......same problem....... any help would be great, cause it's getting real annoying now.
This is the error i get:
Quote
The driver for the display device was unable to complete a drawing operation. Please check with the device manufacturer for a driver update.

well after removing the display driver and now running the standard vga driver, i am positive the thing at fault here is the driver.....because i my compter does not spontainiously reboot nor do i get any display errors, hoever my computer activity is very limited, i can not run any games or use any graphic intensive apps.
.......since the driver IS at fault, will MSI please release a fix or a new driver that will resolve this issue
Thnx.

Linux and MSI KT4 Ultra : DVD problems

Hi, I own an MSI KT4 Ultra Pure mobo. The vt8235 Southbridge is supported in the lastest version of the Linux Kernel, 2.4.20 . After upgrading the kernel all seems to work fine, but when the system try to initialize my hdc (Secondary master of IDE, a DVD reader DV-5800A from NEC) it locks up with the message :
hdc: device {Busy}
hdc: drive not ready for command
ide1: reset success!!
and start looping with this message.
What can I do to get work my DVD Reader? With my precedent MoBo it works perfectly
Thanks
Bye

Hmmm that error used to happen with an older kernel and an ALI chipset. If you leave it long enough does it give up trying and continue to boot? The ALI did this eventualy.

MSI KT4 ULTRA-BFISR + Ati Radeon 9700 pro = not good??

Hello everybody!
First of all, i youst have to say that i think MSI have the best motherboards....
Here's the problem (i haven't buyed anything yet!):
I am going to buy MSI KT4 ULTRA-BFISR and ATI Radeon 9700 Pro, but i have read many places that Radeon aint working with MSI KT4-based cards! Im am going to buy an 520W Power (i aint so good in english so i hope you now what i write :D )
I am also going to buy 2 x Cosair pc3500 xms ram... Is this one working with the motherboard by the way?
But my question is: Will the Ati Radeon 9700 pro work with this card? (i must remember to buy the 1.3 version!) I am gonna get my Radeon 9700 pro from USA, how can i now when i order that is an 1.3 card?
Thank you for answering! :]

I think also that even there is two drivers, that is not a reaseon why it isn't work. One time I install only standard VGA drivers, but result was that I got two standard VGA driver. 8o
First time I try without VIA drivers, then with 4.42 and 4.43 VIA drivers. Result was almost same all the time, it always crash when Nature test start, but this exist also to older mobo (Abit KT7A-RAID). Problem exits few games they lock up or stuttering. Ati demos works fine, but one time that car demo stuttering a lot, but I transfer data at same, so I'm not sure what was reason.
This moment I don't have possibilities to try Hyperion 4.45 drivers or something else, because it's my friend computer.
