Speedfan Configuration for 975X PUE !

Does anyone please have a link to where I can download the Speedfan configuration for the 975X PUE ?
Thankyou

Hello Jack The Newbie,
Each motherboard has to be configured differently within the Speedfan settings in order for the software to give correct readings.
The Speedfan website provides configuration settings for hundreds of different motherboards from all manufacturers but not the MSI 975X. I have no idea how to configure Speedfan myself and so was hoping to be able to download the settings from somewhere !
Thankyou for the post

SATA to SATA transfer speed for 975x PUE

hi guys, i'm using this 975x PUE currently and having this problem. when i tried to copy large data files from a SATA HDD to another SATA HDD it always takes very long time to complete. ofcoz both HDDs are internal and no RAIDS card installed.
eg : copy files about 160GB size take more than 12hrs..
i think it shouldnt take such a long time to copy such huge file. this dont happen to me in my previous pc. can anyone advise pls?

thanks hoshigami, to be honest your pc spec is as good as anyone else but i hope you have sata2 hdd and not sata1 as they are much faster than sata1 when it comes to transferring of data. also i assume your ddr2 is ddr2 800.
when i cloned about 30gb from one hdd to another hdd it took about 25 minutes therefore 160 should not take more than 2 hours in fact much less as cloning is slower process than just copying..
as far as bios is concerned there is no parameter in which it can speed up transfer of data but what you can do is go into bios then click on default setting then click yes and save and exit. and also before copying you defrag your hdd a few times or use speeditup [link below] for further defraging.
http://www.geardownload.com/system/speeditup-free-highly-recommended.html
also do you have FAT32 or NTFS file management., also your hdd 7200 RpM or 5400 RPM.
i think your prob lies with the fact you try to copy 160gb in one go by doing that large chunk of data is scattered on your hdd without being defraged.
i would first copy about 20 to 30gb then defrag hdd a few times then copy further 30gb and defrag....and so on..
to be honest i can not think of anything else . lets see what others have to say. good luck

Vista Drivers for 975x PUE?

So I've decided I've procrastinated enough and I'm going to install the latest Vista beta. Are there Vista drivers for the 975X PUE yet?

Quote from: Vaniireq on 15-November-06, 12:35:18
I tried Vista beta...
I hated it..
I am a gamer..
I have a good pc and nice graphics card but...
Games run much slower on Vista..
Frame rates are terrible...
Even with the Vista Nvidia drivers, games were terrible..
A word to the wise:
If you play games or do graphic stuff, stay away from Vista since even Microsoft admits that right now, gaming will be slower on Vista...
Hope that helps someone...
Be safe and have fun...
Of course it runs slower. It's a new OS. It takes more resources to run. That's the way it's always been. I remember when XP came out, and everyone was horrified that the minimum was 128, and they didn't understand why everything was so slow on that monster machine that ran so fast under 98.

Advice for 975X Platinum PUE

Hi, I am having problems with my setup. I am running memtest to
test my CPU, mobo and PSU and it does not pass the test.
Current BIOS settings:
- Disabled: SpeedStep, C1E, Virtualization, SpreadSpectrum, Auto PCI Clk
- rest are at default

Result: Still running as I write this at pass 4
I want to get some advice from anyone on what other trials I need to
do. My current objective right now is to get the system up and running.
I already gave up on getting my memory to run at DDR800.
Here are some questions I have:
- is my PSU too weak? I had a stock on that came with the case and
after browsing the forums, it seems like it was weak and I went and
bought the best PSU I could find (in terms of Amp rating) and ended
up with this Thermaltake.
- is my mobo's dimm slots bad? I have tried reseating my memory modules
and even made sure I hear a "click" to be sure it's seated properly.
- Should I RMA my memory or my mobo or both? Not sure what is going on
actually. Should I try to get a replacement?
- Do I need to plug in anything special to the mobo? Currently I have
the PSU connected to the mobo:
- 24 pin power
- 8 pin for the CPU
- 4 pin (molex?-- the one for peripherals) for the PCIe power
Confused ??? and about to cry ....Help?

I love my Scythe Ninja Plus cooler but like I mentioned, its huge, so it may not fit in all cases..
Matching case and cooler was a decision that I had made long before I had bought any of my components..
Here is a picture from an old review of the original Scythe Ninja in the same case that I purchased:
http://www.silentpcreview.com/article251-page5.html
The only difference is I have a large fan that is mounted on the bottom side of the heatsink that draws air across a passively cooled (fanless) video card, pushes the air through the heatsink and straight out the top of the case...
For building a quiet computer you should have a look at the site
http://www.silentpcreview.com
When you look to buy a cooler, pay attention to the normal air flow in your case and find a cooler that will work with that airflow rather than fight against it...
As far as temps go...
My core idle temps (remember that I am using speedstep and C1E) are about 38C to 41C
Overclocked and fully loaded my core temps are about 54C
But that is with all my fans, set manually at low speed...
With that said, you need to be a bit clearer about what temps you are speaking of...
There are two cpu temps (well actually 3 since there are two core temps)
There is the temperature of each core and then an actual cpu temp that is a bit cooler than your core temps..
Without seeing all temps its hard to tell what is going on. Knowing the ambient temp, the case temp, cpu temp and core temps would give a better picture of what is going on..
Remember that you were pushing and running your pc all day. That alone will raise your system temp and keep your idle temp higher than normal.. So your idle temp right now is not typical since your whole system is warm from running tests all day.. As far as your temperature under load, with a stock cooler 55C is a bit high considering you aren't overclocking but its not a dangerous temperature..
Comparing all our systems is hard to do, both dimitri and I have, what might be considered top of the line coolers keeping core temps low...
If you look at dimitri's temps they were raised about 10C degrees from idle to load, your system was about the same.. My temps are a bit different but that is because my cpu and case fans don't speed up and increase cooling when the load increases.
If you can let us know your other temps it will be easier to figure out whats up with temps..
As far as that reboot...
I agree with dimitri, try raising your memory voltage a bit..
Be safe...

975X PUE: SATA vs IDE Combinations: 2+2, 4, or 1+3?

Hello,
I searched but didn't find info. For a new build with a 975X PUE, what is the optimal configuration of IDE/SATA drives. I want to have a configuation like:
DRIVE PURPOSE SATA or IDE?
C: VISTA OS ?
D: Data drive 2 SATA, RAID1
E: Backup for Data ?
My question is: Should I use SATA for drives C and E or IDE? Or one of each? Is there a general rule for which is preferred? All things being equal, I prefer SATA since cables are smaller.
Thx.
Scott
PS C and E will likely be single-drive, non-RAID.

Quote from: jsmartin22 on 16-June-07, 14:51:31
I thought perhaps there would be a difference data rates between the IDE/SATA, which arise only when you reach a specific # of SATA drives--in which case it might be better to begin using IDE. Looks like I was wrong. Thx.
Scott
SATA II 300 has 3.0 Gbit/sec available per port, so the number of SATA ports used should not make a difference. There is a theoretical advantage in using SATA, as it is a serial connection instead of a parallel connection with PATA.
Furthermore, because of your RAID 1 setup, you will be using AHCI mode for the onboard Intel controller. The Intel Matrix Storage driver (used for AHCI mode) might give you a couple percents extra drive performance over an IDE interface, even when using single drives.
So SATA would be the way to go...

MSI 975X PUE weird temps

I recently bought a 975X PUE, but I get really weird temperatures. With the DualCoreCenter app I get 42C idle. Speedfan, it displays from -125C to 90C at any time. In configuration I changed from PII diode to thermistor diode. That seemed to keep it at -25C. With Core Temp Beta 0.94 Core #0 and Core #1 I got 51C-52C idle. I am using the Intel stock cooler and paste. I used the latest version of all the apps stated above. What should I do? The board is brand new and the case has really good air conduction. Also note that I am using SMART Fan, when I disable the feature DualCoreCenter gives me temp 39C on CPU and Core Temp #0 Core 45C and Core #1 44C

Yeah I found most temp progs suck in this mobo/chipset (not sure which it is) - Dual CoreCenter gives a 10c different reading compared to all other progs (no cheating there then!) and the alarm also set off constantly even though tthere were no temp breaches.
CoreTemp has also given me wierd readings.
I use Everest Ultimate 2006 as it seems to be about right (or rather the only one which didnt give wierd readings)

MSI 975X PUE + MSI StarHub 7-port USB 2.0 + Windows XP SP3 = Fail

Hi,
today I bought a MSI StarHub and connected it to my computer with MSI 975X PUE and Win XP SP3. But XP does not recognize the hub. On the same computer I have Win 7 installed. There the hub works very well. Any hints to get the hub working on XP? I have same problems with my mouse, logitech G500. It works on WIN 7 and does not work on XP. What can I do?
Regards

There was no driver for the StarHub included and I did not find a driver to download on the msi homepage. When running Win7 the hub is shown as Generic USB Device in the device manager on xp it is a USB 2.0 HUB [mtt] and I do not have the driver for this.
I installed the logitech G500 driver on both, win xp and win 7, but xp does not recognize it.

975x PUE random reboots during games

Here is my setup:
MSI 975x PUE
Core 2 Duo E6300
2GB Gskill 800mhz DDR2
X1900XTX (PCI-e)
300GB HDD
Xfi Fatality
Windows XP And Vista
My system seems to reboot randomly when playing games. No warning, No errors, just straight reboot. It could be 5 mins into the game or 45mins into the game. I have tried formatting and reinstalling windows XP Pro, I also tried installing Windows Vista Ultimate, I made sure the voltage in the BIOS is setup correctly for the memory, I run memtest86 for almost 24 hours with no errors, I run Windows MemTest for about 20 hours with no errors, I run PRIME2004 for about 9 hours with no errors, I tried different RAM, I bought a new hard drive, I replaced the Power supply with a brand new Antec 650 watt. I updated the BIOS. There are games which I have played for a few hours with no reboot, Diablo 2, Neverwinter Nights 1, Quake 3, Counter Strike Source. Games that reboot the system all the time are Command and Conquer 3, World of warcraft, Lord of the Rings Online Beta, S.T.A.L.K.E.R, and Neverwinter nights 2. I have also tried installing Ubuntu, and the install goes fine, but I cannot install the video drivers, and I get a PCI error every time I boot up, the error is too quick for me to take a note of.

rma the orig gskill, corsair has always worked for me, kingston hyperX should work also, or just read through the forums for what is working for others, cheaper is not always better, it appears the 975 is picky about ram.
That would lead me to believe the MB is defective then, not the RAM. If the MB is fussy about RAM why would the onus be on the RAM manufacturer to replace the RAM until something works instead of the MB manufacturer, who is the source of the problem, to properly design their MB?
FYI I'm also having issues with my 975x PUE where it won't boot with neither my very high quality OCZ RAM nor with just basic Crucial RAM. They've RMA'd my first board and the new one fixed my original problem (wouldn't even initialize POST) only to give me different problems. MSI royally screwed-up with that board and I hope they find a solution quick because I'm not very enthusiastic about being beta tester for hardware I pay hundreds of dollars for.

Disabling JMicron on 975x PUE?

Hey all,
I was reading some 975x PUE overclocking tips in the OC forum a few weeks ago, and it said something about disabling JMicron. When I went to go do that, I couldn't figure it out...
I'm on BIOS 7.4, and it seems that JMicron is doing nothing for me except slow my boot... does anyone have any quick tips?
Thanks

Quote

The JMicron Chipset/Controller is there to offer you a 2nd IDE-port and a 5th SATA Port (that is all it does). If you don't need any of these two ports you can safely disable that thingy.

MS 7246 (975x PUE) = Motherboard of many woes , help if you can.... (pics)

My setup
MSI MS - 7246 v 2.1 (975x PUE) bios 7.0 / 7.1/7.2/7.4
E6600 2.4ghz w/ 4mb cache
2x 1GB Corsair CM2 6400 (ddrII 800)
Silencer 610w powersupply
2x 74gb raptors Raid=0
I'll try to be as informative and brief as possible.
My journey started with a lot (not enough as it turns out) research for a nice board for the core 2 e6600. Finally choosing this motherboard after reading through the review on tomshardware.com . I'm not new to computer building, but who knows, maybe I've missed something.
I've come to find , the bios are quite horrible to say the least, with each "revision" i loose more options and less things work.
This motherboard will not clock my e6600 correctly. In system properties / CPUZ it is displayed as a 1.2ghz proccessor.
The bios also confirms this on boot up, Displaying 297mhz (33x9) along with the incorrect DDR2 533 speed.
Here are the settings in the bios (ver 7.0, the only version that seems to work with the RAID)
CPU FSB Frequency = 266mhz
FSB @ memory clock ratio = Auto (i believe thats 1:2 according to cpuz)
It feels like im missing a multiplier somewhere in the setup. Everything is half speed.
I've tried to update the bios to the one's ive listed , but with any other bios revision my FSB ratio option gets locked, and my raid doesnt work.
I've sent the motherboard in on RMA and its been returned, It came with the 7.4 bios flashed on to it which means my raid wouldnt work (and still would not detect the processor correctly).
I've included some pictures of the bios settings and what its displaying, just to prove im not out of my mind!
Any help would be great!

It seems pretty evident to me that you have a bad board. I've tried all offcial bios (and many betas) and NEVER my processor (the same as yours) was incorrectly detected.
I doubt that dissabling SpeedStep and C1E will help in any way, and if it does, that should be a sign of a faulty board, because I'm running at 3 Ghz (333 x 9) with SpeedStep and C1E enabled and all voltages auto without any problem.

SLI brigde For 975X board....

Were can i get an SLI bridge? To work on my 975X PUE mobo? I'd like an MSI one if that doable lol

The board surely doesn't come with SLI bridge. And no, there is no promise whether this board can ever support SLI too. Try to get the bridge from NForce SLI based boards, steal/borrow it over and test on this board, if it just doesn't work, then you have to forget SLI on this board for a while.

MSI 975X PUE Power Connector !

I've just noticed that the 975X has a 24 pin ATX connector. My Antec Truepower 480W PSU only has a 20 pin connector.
Is this an adaptor available or will I have to dig deep and buy a new PSU ?
If a new PSU, then any recommendations !
Thankyou

Quote
The Antec article is very interesting and basically seems to say that it is OK to use a 20 pin ATX supply on a motherboard with 24 pin ATX connector. This is contrary to the link in a previous post !
Not really. Here is a passage from the arcticle the other link did point you to:
Quote
The 24 pin connector is actually just the 20 pin connector with 4 extra pins added on the end. The original 20 pins were unchanged. The extra 4 pins are not separate rails. They're just extra lines to provide more current to the same rails. On every motherboard I've seen, the extra lines for ground, 3.3, 5, and 12 are just connected to the other lines on the same rail from the 20 pin connector. I've never heard of exceptions and it doesn't make sense for motherboard makers to create any. As a result, you can plug a 20 pin cable into a 24 pin motherboard and it will work just fine. At least, it will for a while. They added those extra 4 pins for a reason. When you plug a 20 pin cable into a 24 pin connector you're not providing the extra current carrying capacity which may be needed by the motherboard. If your motherboard's current requirements are low enough then it will work properly with only a 20 pin power cabled plugged in. But if the motherboard draws enough current, then you can overheat the 20 pins you're using on the 24 pin connector.
Quote
I assume that the 4 pin connector next to the first PCI-E graphics slot on the 975X PUE board takes the same connector/supply as the one that supplies power to the IDE [...] drives !
Yes, it is the same connector you usually use for IDE drives:
Floppy drives usually use this kind of connector:
Quote from: AaronYuri on 28-February-07, 01:59:50
Jack the Newbie,
I've seen the spec. The OCZ I recommended will run his pouter.
It probably will. But I am a little afraid that the 450W-PSU you recommended might come close to its limits on the 26A/+12V-rail.

975x PUE & Overclocking Help

Hey guys,
I have an Intel core 2 duo 6600, MSI 975x PUE mobo, 4gb ddr 2 corsair ram. I followed the several guides on overclocking, and currently have my CPU FSB at 333, the CPU Voltage is set at auto (according to PC Wizard 2008 it's running at 1.28V), my ram multiplier is at 1:1, ram voltage is at 2.1, ram timings at 4-4-4-12 Everything so far seems stable, idle temps are in the mid 30's (celcius), however i have one problem, When i restart my PC, the computer does not post, my screen just stays black. I have to reset it again for the bios to post and the computer to boot. Anyone know what causes this and how I can resolve it? I appreciate any help!

Insert Quote
First of, PSU corsair VX 550, cracking PSU and single rail. Would say mid budget range.....
Did you set PCI express timings to 100 instead of Auto?
Disabled spread spectrum
Also, disable SPD and maually set to 5-5-5-15
memory voltage as per manufacturers website
Do not up voltage of cpu to start with......
And lastly.......... was system stable before you started OC work?
I researched my PSU and found nothing but great reviews, it's basically the same PSU as the OCZ GameXtream 700W PSU.
PCI Express frequency is on 100
Spread Spectrum is Disabled
Memory Timings are already manually set at 5-5-5-12 as per the manufacturer (I also tried 15 but no change)
Memory voltage is at 1.9 per the manufacturer
CPU Voltage is set on Auto since upping the voltage made no change.
My System is completely stable on default settings, and its' completely stable when overclocked to 3ghz, however when i restart the computer it will not do a warm boot, I have to hit the reset button. It's more of an annoyance then anything.
Right now I have my CPU running at 2.84 and memory at 667 w/multiplier on 1.25 and my computer will do a Warm boot Just fine. I'd really like to keep it at 3ghz though.

975X PUE SATA RAID Windows XP Blue Screen Install

Hi,
I've just purchased a new MSI 975X PUE motherboard and am trying to install Windows on it.
I have connected 2x WD Raptor 36GB drives, and set them up in a RAID 0 array using the Ctrl+I RAID BIOS utility. I have set the SATA config in the BIOS to RAID mode, and turned off the other SATA controller... The RAID BIOS detects the array ok after it has been set up, and shows it as OK.
When I boot from a Windows XP SP2 CD I press F6 and choose the RAID Driver for ICH7R RAID. Windows tells me that it already has a driver but this version is newer, so I say to use the one on the floppy (I have tried without doing this and Windows does not detect any Hard Drives at all).
Once I have loaded the drivers it continues loading the other drivers for the setup, and then gets to "Loading Windows Setup", here is waits for a minute or so and the blue screens.... The stop code is 0x7B (INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE)...
I have upgraded the BIOS from 7.0 to 7.1 (not 7.2 yet as I have read about problems with it).
I've tried various versions of the drivers from different locations, and each time it blue screens in exactly the same place... I'm beginning to get very annoyed with this as I shouldn't be expected to find my own drivers when there are ones supplied on the CD...
Is anyone able to suggest what I could do?
Thanks
[EDIT] Also I have tried an install of Windows Vista Beta and that installed fine using the drivers from the CD...

I must say again that the problem is located in the memory modules. As suggested by Hans before, try running memtest86 first,
http://filexoom.com/files/2006/11/1/41824/memtest86%2B-1.65.floppy.zip
and sometimes even if tests runs fine, doesn't mean that memory is OK. It just might be that that type of memory doesn't fit within your MB. As I mention before, my friend was using Corsair for his MB(getting the message INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE), and after replacing with A-Data(definitely lower quality memory), everything went fine. So, try with another memory.
As for Murphyman, when you use the yellow connector, you are using the Jmicron controller,witch asks for RAID drivers before you use the device installed on it. The blue IDE controller is controlled by Intel's ICH7DH, and no RAID driver is need. So, try connecting the DVD drive on the blue connector, and see if will work.

One year later, I still have problems with the 975X PUE

A year ago, I bought the 975X PUE board and turned out to be one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made when purchasing something computer-related.
To start with, the board didn't recognize the OCZ memory that I had bought, so I had to change it for some gSkill memory. That, however, involved a trip to Argentina since at the time it was very hard to get DDR2 memory @ 800 Mhz here in Uruguay. I had also complained about how the temperature monitor was unreliable and problems booting the computer.
I still have those problems, but I learned to live with it since no major problems arised. Sure, I'd have to boot three to six times just to get it running, but hey, no big deal.
Later, I decided to go for RAID1 and surprisingly, it worked so I had no new complaints.
However, lately something new has been happening. The computer seems to reboot randomly and without warning. This had happened before when lightning struck nearby (I blamed it on electro magnetic something) but now it happens all the time and I can't find a solution. I leave the computer on during the night and in the mornings, I come to find that it has rebooted when I was sleeping.
Here's what I have:
MSI 975X PUE (7.1083006)
INTEL E6600
GSKILL 4 GB DDR2 800 Mhz RAM
WD 320 GB 7200 RPM
2x WD 500 GB 7200 RPM (RAID1)
NVIDIA 8800 GTS
Windows Vista 32 bit
PSU Biswal 780W 30A +12V
I've looked over the latest firmware thread that used to be a sticky on here and noticed that everything else seems to be beta. MSI never released something better for this board? Here's that thread: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=99818.0
The only thing that I could think of for these random reboots is that maybe the unreliable temperature sensors fool the computer and make it seem like the CPU is a lot hotter than it actually is. I've fired up Everest and right now, with only Firefox and a couple of IM clients running, CPUs are at 50 and 54 degrees celcius. Taking into account that the case is open and I'm in an air conditioned room set to 24 degrees celcius and that there's a mini Typhoon on top of the E6600 as well as a couple of fans in the case, these CPU temperatures are nearly impossible.
What's going on with this? Can anyone help me out?

Quote from: daiver on 04-January-08, 21:59:50
Ok, lets say my PSU is degraded. That solves my spontaneous rebooting issue. How about everything else?
I still have to boot my PC 3-6 times to get it to start. Temperature monitor still sucks as well.
Is 7.1 the latest official firmware for this high-priced mobo?
Daiver the biswall brand is a very cheap one, I think you should buy a trusted PSU. In Argentina you can find many brands, like Topower and Power Cooler, that are good PSUs and at a fair price.
The latest bios for this mother is 7.7, but some users find it not so good as 7.6. I use 7.6 and works perfect.
