SOLVED Friends MSI P35 Neo has no video/post!!! Need IMMEDIATE Help!

Ok, I have been working with computers for a LONG time. My best friend and I built him a gaming rig. He has a Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4ghz, a single Ati Radeon x850 Crossfire Edition, a Rosewell 550 watt power supply, and 2gb of ddr2 RAM (unknown brand...). Today me and him decided to dust out his case and tidy up his cables to increase airflow (his brother did a bad job LOL). Everything was working before. Now everything is powering on: the fans/LEDs, gfx card fan, psu, hdd, dvd drive, etc, but the screen is blank and i get no post/bios. Me and him went to the movies tonight to see Saw 5 , and I couldnt spend the night at his house to work on it. He is EXTREMELY pissed at me and thinks I broke his whole rig. I feel horrible. I read the manual for his mobo and EVERYTHING is hooked up correctly. I didnt do anything wrong. I have been googling and heard a lot of issues with MSI mobos like this. Please help me or my friend may never let me touch or look at his pc again. BTW i am only 15 years old, but i truely know what i am talking about. I know all the terms so dont feel that you have to go make it simple for my young mind hehe. I have been working on computers for about 5+ years. Im quite intelligent in this field.
Help truely appreciated!

i put my money on ram gone loose you may have to put the ram a few times before it works they can be funny and then naturally check the graphic card that may be loose too so double check all connection and cables . i do not think it is cmos
i dont think this is cmos at all. it was fine before, and in other topics like this, reseting it has done nothing. does ram effect things like this? already checked gfx card cables, they are in tightly. in need my friend to push down on his ram when he gets home and see if it helps.

MSI P35 Neo-F (MS-7360): Computer randomly freezes while playing games

Hi there,
I have reached the end of my technical knowledge right now and I'm not even sure if this area of the forum is appropriate. The problem:
While playing higher-end games like Crysis 2, Anno 1404, Mass Effect 2 etc. my computer randomly freezes and the last few milliseconds of sound are being looped on my speakers (kind of like a buzzing sound).
By "freezing" I mean that my computer becomes unresponsive to any action other than pressing the Reset-Button or holding down the Power-Up-Button (no reaction to Ctrl+Alt+Del, Alt+F4, Alt+Tab, no mouse movement... you get it).
There's no exact timing as to when these freezes occur. The fastest freeze happened after less than a minute of playing a game, slowes one (just today after switching to my newer case with better cooling) took about 2 hours.
This freeze only occurs while my System is under load. No freezes while browsing the web, using office programs, listening to music or watching videos.
System Specs:
Mainboard: MSI P35 Neo-F (MSI-7360)
CPU: Intel Core2Quad Q6600 @2.4GHz
RAM: 4x 1GB DDR2-800 Corsair XMS2
Graphics: Gainward GeForce GTX 560 Ti, 1GB GDDR5 VRAM
PSU: Antec High Current Gamer 620W (upgraded from Xilence XP600, 600W)
New CPU Cooler: Arctic Freezer 13 Pro (upgraded from OEM Intel Boxed Cooler)
New Case: Zalman Z9 Plus w/ 4x 120 mm Fans (Upgraded from a Case with only 1x 250mm side Fan)
2 Western Digital HDD (1x 2TB, 1x320 GB)
1 DVD Reader/Burner (unimportant for that error I guess)
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
2 Screens: 1x 24" Asus VS248H and 1x 21" LG Flatron Wide W2240T
Since this error is bugging me for quite a while now and since this is not the first forum I'm trying to get help from, here's a list of steps i already took to get rid of it, obviously to no good use:
reinstalled games where the freeze occurred
updated all Drivers (including cleaning old versions in safe mode; also tried older drivers)
updated BIOS to v1.A0
Reinstalled Windows
bought new Case and CPU Cooler to improve Air Flow/Cooling
checked Seating of all components (took out, cleaned, reapplied thermal grease where neccessary, re-inserted)
cleaned old case of dust (obviously no problem in the new case, which is 2 days "old")
ran 7 sequences of Memtes86+ without any errors
ran Prime95 without any errors for about 45 Minutes
ran Furmark for 15 Minutes under full load (burn-in test) without any problems, even though my graphics card hit the 100°C frequency-cut level
ran Furmark and Prime95 simultaneously without any problems
took records of component temperatures and system voltages without noticing anything unusual (at least not after i switched to the newer PSU, which is about 1 Month old - yet didn't resolve the problem)
tested with cyclic removal of 1 RAM device to further rule out RAM malfunction
tested with only 2 RAM devices in dual channel mode (Slots 1 and 3)
tried to reduce RAM clock (800 MHz --> 667 MHz) to no avail
checked S.M.A.R.T. values of HDDs, no issues reported
tested without any background programs
raised/lowered voltages to RAM, CPU and Chipset in BIOS to increase logic circuit stability/decrease heat production
I need to mention: After I transferred my system to the new case, i was able to play longer than average compared to my old case. So I am guessing that improper cooling was part of the problem, yet improving cooling obviously didn't resolve it.
Since these freezes are really annoying and nobody could help me resolve this so far, I'm hoping to find some new ways of narrowing down the problem or even getting rid of it here.
Regards
Sebb

Lets be realistic. A system with a 560TI is recommended to have a around 31Amps under full load, a CX500 would be sufficient.
Have you monitored your CPU and memory utilisation ?
As suggested before, test the GPU in another computer to see if the behaviour is the same.
Whew, I thought for a second there that my common sense had left me when I saw that 60-Amp-Post ^^
Yes, I monitored CPU and RAM usage, there is no recognizeable pattern to be seen and it almost never happens under full load.
I will see if a friend of mine can test my GPU on his computer, and I will test it underclocked right away.
Though one more question regarding that: Should I only underclock GPU Core Clock or both Core and RAM clock?

memory voltage 2.1
Make sure that the memory timings are not set to 4-4-4-x but that they are set to the defaults values (5-5-5-x). Also ensure, that the memory clock speed is not set to anything higher than 400 MHz (=DDR2-800). The voltage at these settings should not need to exceed 1.95V. So please lower it accordingly. In case the freezes still occure, please run memtest86+ to check your memory for errors.

Please get rid of that tool for all further tests. Uninstall it completely from your system as it is known to cause crashes and freezes on its own terms when running.

MSI p35 Neo-Fi & PSU compatibility question

Ok I have a new high end computer system that is missing a PSU.
I recently got Coolermaster real power 700w psu which obsiviously wasn't working with the mobo (couldn't boot). Now I'm returning that psu and I have to ask which PSUs are compatible with this MSI p35 Neo-Fi motherboard.
So right now I'm planning to get Corsar 650w TX or Xilence 600W. I don't really want to waste time on returning another PSU so if any of you have any suggestions it would be welcome.

I'm going for that corsair psu then, thanks for replying guys. It has gotten good reviews too so now I'm convinced it's good.
Quote from: Frankenputer on 14-August-08, 07:02:02
The 650TX is an excellent choice. I'm interested in what other components you are going to have in the system.

MSI P35 Neo FIR IDE channels

Hey there,
I have an MSI P35 Neo FIR and I'm curious as to how the single IDE port on the motherboard works. Where does the IDE's primary and secondary channel lie in relation to the rest of the channels on the system? It sounds like a weird question, but what I'm getting at is the board has several SATA channels which seem to be of higher priority.
I need to make a 320GB IDE drive the most prioritised "master" drive in the system, but I'm concerned that the other SATA channels mean that at best the drive would be master of the 8th channel or thereabouts. Am I making a small amount of sense?

Nowdays, SATA Controller treats the drives with individuality, where it can treat each SATA drive as IDE Master Number #x. Only for IDE where master and slave are still involved.
I have the same curiousity as Jack only why does the master drive concern much in your system? If it's the boot order and you have the SATA drive as the boot drive, you can simply go into BIOS and select that particular drive to boot off from. If it's a new installation and you need to run the installation disc off the optical drive, you can also select that to boot off in BIOS settings as well.

MSI P35 Neo & Core2Duo E6550, Windows & CPU-Z finds ONLY 1 core...?

Note: If one or both of the first two Options is disabled at the moment and you have to enable them, Windows may not boot anymore. You will have to Re-install the OS or try a repair installation. Windows XP is not able to automatically adjust to the changes automatically.
There is a fastest way without bother to repair or reinstall OS..
We can force desired HAL by this way, the method used is very usefull and can be applied even when OS doesn't provide choice for manual HAL update.
(etc: desired HAL is not listed as choice... Windows often becomes rather stupid...):
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC & ACPI Uniprocessor PC use the same kernels, etc: only specify hal is enough:
in boot.ini ---> /hal=halacpi.dll (for Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC) and /hal=halaacpi.dll (for ACPI Uniprocessor PC)
NOTE: files should already exist into system32 folder. file version should match with currently version installed. if you got SP2 get files from here:
"C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\i386\sp2.cab", open with winzip and get correct hal which you need:
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC ----> halacpi.dll
ACPI Uniprocessor PC -------> halaacpi.dll
ACPI Multiprocessor PC -------> halmacpi.dll
or use microsoft expand if you don't have winzip:
cmd, go to C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\i386\
type from there:
expand sp2.cab -F:myhal.dll c:\windows\system32
where myhal.dll= your chosen hal (halacpi.dll, halaacpi.dll or halmacpi.dll)
for XP without SP2, same procedure but look for HAL files into "\I386" XP installation folder(and those syntax from there:)
expand HALACPI.DL_ %systemroot%\system32\HALACPI.DLL
or expand HALMACPI.DL_ %systemroot%\system32\HALMACPI.DLL
or expand HALAACPI.DL_ %systemroot%\system32\HALAACPI.DLL
or to force directly to default hal:
booting from recovery console command prompt, or from other location and load NTFS mounter with read&write NTFS support:
navigate to root OS drive and go to OS root directory(%windir%) into system32 folder:
example: (where C is OS root drive, and "windows" is OS root folder)
C:
cd windows\system32
ren hal.dll hal.old
cd "c:\windows\driver cache\i386"
expand sp2.cab -F:myhal.dll c:\windows\system32 /* where myhal.dll should be replaced with one of chosen hal: halacpi.dll, halaacpi.dll or halmacpi.dll */
cd "c:\windows\driver cache\i386"
ren myhal.dll hal.dll /* where myhal.dll should be replaced with one of chosen hal: halacpi.dll, halaacpi.dll or halmacpi.dll */
for ACPI Multiprocessor PC we need to update kernels too, go to c:\windows\system32 and make backup 1st: (under pure DOS, or different OS)
force ACPI Multiprocessor PC:
cd c:\windows\system32
ren ntkrnlpa.exe ntkrnlpa.old
ren ntoskrnl.exe ntoskrnl.old
ren hal.dll hal.old /* backup hal too, gona replace it also */
cd "c:\windows\driver cache\i386"
expand sp2.cab -F:halmacpi.dll c:\windows\system32
expand sp2.cab -F:ntkrpamp.exe c:\windows\system32
expand sp2.cab -F:ntkrnlmp.exe c:\windows\system32
cd c:\windows\system32
ren halmacpi.dll hal.dll
ren ntkrpamp.exe ntkrnlpa.exe
ren ntkrnlmp.exe ntoskrnl.exe
reboot PC you have done, no modification into boot.ini is required. at XP startup will detect new hal installed and will be asked for reboot. you have switched to ACPI Multiprocessor PC.
You can review default HAL files and restore it if you don't have backup(if you skip or forgot to make backup) from looking here: \Windows\Repair\Setup.log search for "HAL" inside will find original file name locations.
also HAL query can be obtained from this registry key: HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\ACPI_HAL\0000\HardwareID
The thing that need to take attention is that:
Make sure that HAL along with both kernels will be from same SP, etc: if you currently use SP2 dig for HAL file & kernels in:
C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\i386\sp2.cab
respective if you are using SP3:
C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\i386\sp3.cab
If no there is no SP installed look for them in I386 folder in XP installation disk.
Takes less than 2 minutes, and switch to desired HAL without troubles.

Problem with my MSI P35 Neo MotherBoard [Cannot find harddrive]

Hi guys.
So, I've been trying to install Archlinux for a while now, and I've been trying to figure out what problem Is by myself, and I've been asking a bunch of people, but it seems that it's going to a dead end.
What we figured out, and what we "think" it is, is that the controller on my motherboard does not support the system, and my SATA disk that I am trying to install on.
What i have tried is that.. I've followed the "beginners guide" to install arch linux, and when i noticed that i got a big problem with my harddrive i asked some people for help, tough we cannot figure out what the problem is..
Firstly i boot up with my ArchLinux CD.. Then i write km, to change the keyboard layout. Then /arch/setup ofcourse . After that when i try to partitionate and set mountpoints for filsystem it does not show any kind of hardware at all. So i tried to partitionate with gparted and then boot up with Archlinux again to install all my packages etc etc. But it seems like it does not write the information to anything.
This is a big problem for me cause i really want my Arch distribution to work, so please guys.. Help me!
EDIT
Just in case you wanted to know.. My motherboard is a MSI P35 Neo

VCORE PROBLEMS WITH MSI P35 NEO F

To see if I can help or at least explain what's happening, buy a MSI P35 NEO F for using a quad, the topic is as follows handling vcore is rare
First thing I can not put less voltage that the cpu brings default, second what happens next if bios setting 1.3250 vcore for Quad, once in both windows everest, cpuz, like others programs tell me that this placed on 1.40 vcore which is excessive for the speed at which the quad, this is so in this mobo? Their story that was installed version 1.20 bios which handled vcore%, the upgrade to version 1.40 and is now handled in decimals (numbers) vcore, but still the problem
You pull more vcore which setting in bios and if you want to download the vcore eg put 1.26 vcore not let you because it takes the vcore default of cpu minimum.
i'm not crashing or problems with the temperatures, but nobody likes to have more vcore's necessary.
Wonder because being rookie of this mobo, maybe there's some bios version that fixes this bug or someone knows something else, thank you guys

-- SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH --

You can slap 1.6v in that CPU and temps won't rise that much.
Core 2 Duo/Quad operates @ 1.250-1.425, anywhere in between those values is perfectly stable for Intel stock cooler and frequency.
Absolutely nothing to worry about. But if you want to complain about >1c I really can't see the sense in that.

Is MSI P35 Neo compatible with new USB3 PCI-E adapters?

I've just bought a 1 Tb Samsung USB3 powered external HDD. Currently I only have USB2 ports which can't handle the transfer speed of USB3. Is my MSI P35 Neo mainboard compatible with new USB3 PCI-E adapters, if I were to fit one?
Thanks in advance
Pedro

If it is an add-on card, it should work if the drivers are properly installed.
However, if you need more information on compatibility results, I suggest that you log a technical support ticket with MSI.

MSI P35 Neo 2 FR refuses to boot

Hello. I own a MSI P35 Neo 2 FR. I have it for about 4 weeks. Today, i shut down the computer and, after i tried to restart it, it refuses to boot...
The MB doesn't even start. But, if i get the CPU cable off the board, the MB starts, but it remains at the 4 red lights...
So, i am asking for some help.
Is the board fried?
Should i take it to warranty?

Quote from: flobelix on 22-February-09, 00:26:11
Your psu is very weak. That Cooler Master states it would be be able to do sli means nothing.
Funny, 43A on +12V is very weak, and a statement of CM is invalidated without proof.
Quote from: flobelix on 22-February-09, 00:26:11
It is a split rail with three rails at 19A peak each. Peak means seconds before it blows to pieces or shuts down.
How do you know that's a peak value and not a continuous one at 40°C? That unit is a decent AcBel unit, not groundbreaking neither a craptacular one, just a PSU who can power without problems a quad OC-ed on air and a GTX 280.
Quote from: flobelix on 22-February-09, 00:26:11
Across all rails it should do 516w on +12v (which means peak also), that's 43A peak total. So it won't do even 40A continous that's for sure. On each rail it won't do any more than 16-17A.
My god! How do you know that? If it's not PC P&C it doesn't mean that it's crap.
Read before blame a PSU for a failing MB.
Quote from: flobelix on 22-February-09, 00:26:11
I'd recommend trying with another and stronger psu before doing anything else.
I'd recommend buying a MB who's able to power on long term a quad, not only for a month.

MSI P35 Neo Combo and GEIL 2x2GB DDR3 1600Mhz question

Memory spec for MSI P35 Neo Combo says:
• Supports two unbuffered DIMM of 1.5 Volt DDR3 800/1066 DRAM. (Max: 4GB)
If I put GEIL 2x2GB DDR3 1600Mhz, if it cannot work, will I destroy my mobo or memory?

MSI p35 neo combo 8gb?

I have msi p35 neo combo(or ms 7365) with 2X2 gb ram(4gb in total) and i want to put 8gb ram.Is it possible to put 8gb on this motherbord and which frequency should it have for new ram?

Don't know what MB you looked up but what you show is incorrect.
That P35 Combo MB is made to use either 2 sticks of DDR2 or 2 sticks of DDR3 max of 2 x 2GB of either type. That means 4GB max. If you already have some or can borrow some 4GB sticks to try you won't hurt anything by trying them.
Main Memory
• Supports two unbuffered DIMM of 1.8 Volt DDR2 667/800 DRAM. Max: 4GB
• Supports two unbuffered DIMM of 1.5 Volt DDR3 800/1066 DRAM. Max: 4GB
• Supports dual channel memory architecture.

2.) Will I need to find 64 bit drivers for the LAN, sound card, etc and download them prior to installation of Win 7?
