Still Cannot do anything on this board(KT4 Ultra)

So in the beginning I bought this new system, here are the specs:
(Original Specs)
MB: MSI KT4 Ultra
CPU: AMD XP 2200+
RAM1: 512MB PC2700
RAM2: 512MB PC2700
AGP: Nvidia Ti4200 128MB
PCI(All):Empty
IDE1: 80gig Western Digital
IDE2: literon 16x DVD
PSU: 300W
(cant think of anything else)
So when i got it home, I could not Install Win2K AT ALL, No matter what i did or tried still would not install.
So after awhile i said forget it and install WinXP, worked installed fine(or so i thought).  I installed SP1, d/l all the updates. d/l VIA 4.45 and for the graphics card i d.l the latest certified drivers. Well i thought i was in the clear, but then i started getting errors or problems while trying to run games or 3D apps(cinema4D). So i went through all the forums and ended up replacing the PSU witha Antec true power 480, and the CPU cooler with a volcano 9. but still nothing but problems so i took it back to my dealer and they deemed the mobo bad or something and gave us a new one.took it home and still Errors, did a fresh install of winxp(win2k could still not install)Still erros everywhere. so i took back to them again. and they claimed this time that the cpu cooler was to big and wasent makeing full contact, and gave us a smaller one(i think a volcano7?) i was like alright that is understandable. got it home did fresh install AND STILL Errors.
I dont know what to do, lets see i cant run 3Dmark2001SE program just quits no error. Quake3 quits,Cinema4D says it has generaded errors and needs to quit. at first PCMark2002 did not work, But i was runnin a test on my harddrives and C: would keep failing, so i looked in one of the logs and said something about memory, so i changed my swap file to D: and boom PCmark2002 went all the way trough its tests, and i could do tests on my c and d without any errors but i still can use 3d apps?
Any ideas please
Thanks in advanced

"......so i took back to them again. and they claimed this time that the cpu cooler was to big and wasent makeing full contact, and gave us a smaller one(i think a volcano7?)....."
THATS SO NOT TRUE ?
Volcano 9+ was a nice copper base, and it makes great contact with the cpu core
Man i built a simliar PC for a friend:
MSI KT4-Ultra (bios version 1.3)
Athlon XP2400+ FSB266 Retail Box
TT Volcano 9+ using box white paste
Kingston 512 MB PC2700 RAM
Ati Radeon AIW 7500 AGP4x
WD 80 GB 7200 RPM
LG52x24x52x CDRW
CNET 10/100 NIC
Windows XP Pro SP1 /Via 4.45
SP CASE Tower 400watt psu
maybe, it can be your memory, thats my guess
or could be you setting AGP8x?

  • HT1491 ***!!!  I have not been able to access the itunes store for many months now.  I backed up all my purchases and reinstalled itunes and I still cannot access anything at all.  Anyone else have this problem?  I'm on an Alienware comp with Windows upda

    I have not been able to get onto itunes to check my account or purchase anything for about a year now.  Got an Alienware system with latest Windows.  When I pull up itunes I can access my old music but cannot access my account to purchase anything new.  Just reinstalled itunes and it still does not work.  I am ready to just quit.  Anyone else having this issue?  Solutions?
    Thanks!

    If this is an Alienware system, the most likely culprit is the Bigfoot Networks LSP as per the following document:

    Head to the Downloads and Drivers page at Dell for your particular model of Alienware. Look for available updates for your BigFoot networking device. If you update those drivers, does that give you back your Store access?

    Please help me

    Had a similar issue a couple of days ago, when my password was not recognized. I KNOW it was correct, yet when I checked in settings, the number of asterisks were far too few for my password. Ended up with my account disabled, so I had to request a reset, the link was sent the back up email account I created when I got my unit.
    Today, I was asked to confirm credit card info when trying to download a FREE app. I suppose that is for any future in-app purchases....at least, I hope so!

  • 2 iPad's Down and Still Cannot install Anything???

    I have just returned my new iPad to the shop and picked up another after I could not even install any software to the iPad from the PC, iTunes works OK, the computer has been authorised and then de-authorised, and then re-authorised, as already advised on this forum, but when I try to install anything (even a FREE App called iBooks) I get the following message:
    The application "iBooks" was not installed on the iPad "James's iPad" because an unknown error ocurred (0xE8008001).
    This is getting annoying, I have basically paid for something that I cannot even read a book on??? and yet on the TV adverts they seem to this or more, I have tried free games and free apps, I was going to purchase something but in case I cannot get this working I do not want to waist my money...

  • HT201263 I have downloaded ipod software for recovery and still cannot get anything to happen

    I have gotten my Ipod to go to the Itunes connect screen for recovery. However when I donwloaded the update it did not work. So my Ipod is still not being recognized by my computer.

    If you cannot operate the device nor get it to connect to iTunes, make sure the cable is not the problem, try another cable.
    If not, then try this:
    1. Connect the device to iTunes
    2. Hold both the power button and the home button down simultaneously
    3. After 10 seconds, release the power button but leave the home button pressed
    4. iTunes should then recognize that the device has entered DFU mode and ask to restore.

  • No menu bar, no toolbar, no gear icon, nothing on my Firefox. What happened? I downloaded and cannot do anything with this useless browser. Help! I want to

    I downloaded Firefox repeatedly and cannot really use it other than typing in a url that I know. I cannot get a google homepage. I cannot delete, add cookies, delete browsing history as is suggested by the error messages. Nothing works or is consistent.
    I have no gear icon, no toolbar, no menu bar. It is a very strange setup that I'm looking at.
    This is crazy. What the hell happened?
    I get the error message that I need to enable cookies and delete browsing history in order to simply create a google home page? Seriously?
    This is so odd. And I cannot find controls to perform any functions. I'm using Windows 7
    Thanks

    You can do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 28: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • I cannot burn anything using this program

    I have read the instructions, I have read the Hot Tips, and I have even saved an image file and nothing. I have checked settings and preferences and wasted years of time trying to use this so called cool program. I am using an external burner and it is recognized by the program. What the heck is going on and why isn't this program working. The DVD is encoded as well. It even gets my hopes up and runs through the burning process and then burns the disc with nothing on it. Pointless! This is DVD 6.

    I'll try the disk image again. I have created on before, but don't actually get to use it. I'll open the disk image file and it has, of course, two files in it. It doesn't prompt or I haven't seen info in iDVD to burn the image. I'll check the link you sent me.
    After you have created your disk image, you can test it to see if it works properly. Open DVD Player (Applications folder). Then, click on your disk image to mount it on the desktop. Now, you should see your movie start to play using DVD Player. If it plays correctly, you should be able to burn it.
    To burn a DVD from a disk image, open Disk Utility ( Applications->Utilities->DU). Drag your disk image into the left panel. Click on it to select it, then click on 'Burn' on the top left. Follow the instrucions re: inserting your blank DVD disk. You should get a burned DVD in a few minutes.
    (These instructions should be one the links I posted...).
    The disc will go through the burn and eject the disk with the message burning completed.
    You actually get that message, the disk is ejected, but nothing is burned onto it? It won't play in the computer or on a DVD player?
    Then when I try to shut the program down it won't. A message of "cleaning up" prompts in the program and never completes.
    You mean that you cannot close your iDVD project? Even if you have problems at this point, your disk should have burned already.
    Are you referring to your iDVD project as 'the program'?
    When you try it again, start with creating a disk image. Be sure to 'delete encoded assets' before you have iDVD make the disk image.
    Also after iMovie there is an option to send to iDVD so themes and what not can be added. I usually send the movie that way.
    Sometimes that process causing double rendering. Try saving and quitting your iMovie. Open your iDVD project, or better, create a new one. Then, drag and drop your movie into it from within iDVD, via the 'media' pane.
    Honestly, it should not be this difficult for you to get a 10min movie burned to disk

  • Why can I not access ICloud mail on Mac Mail anymore.  When I reopen a new ICloud account, the "incoming server" box is gray and I cannot enter anything.   This happened the 3-4 times I attempted to start a new icloud account?

    Was getting ICloud mail then it stopped.   Icons next to ICloud on my mac mail say it's a netweork error.   I tried deleting the iCloud account several times and reentering it but it always leaves out the info that goes into the "incoming server" box and there is no way to manually enter it as the box is grayed out.   

    Sign out of iCloud (system preference>iCloud) reboot and sign back in.

  • KT4 Ultra: conflict w/ expansion cards

    This is my first post, so please be gentle. I recently built new PC for photo editing and want to keep this old KT4 Ultra computer for general usage right beside. Both are running Windows XP Home SP3.
    My KT4 computer had HDD crash and after replacement and fresh istallation of XP I initially had following expansion cards inside:
    USB Expansion card (w/ 4 USB ports) on Slot 2 (INT B#)
    Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC on Slot 3 (INT D#)
    Terratec EWX 24/96 Sound Card on Slot 6 (INT C#)
    Everything was OK until I wanted a LAN connection for sharing of files (mostly) and Internet (via cable modem) between these two. Instead of a broadband wired router I opted for a Gigabit Ethernet card installing it on slot 5 (INT B#).
    USB Expansion card (w/ 4 USB ports) on Slot 2 (INT B#)
    Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC on Slot 3 (INT D#)
    D-Link DGE-528T Gigabit Ethernet Adapter on Slot 5 (INT B#)
    Terratec EWX 24/96 Sound Card on Slot 6 (INT C#)
    Somehow didn't want to have it on slot 1, so close to video card. Unfortunately after this the sound card was dropped by the system, a yellow question mark in Device Manager.
    Further I failed to instal my Bluetooth Dongle which I earlier had used succesfully for communication to my mobile phone. Now my Broadcom USB Bluetooth Device is put under Unknown in Device Manager.
    I did experience problems with the sound card several years ago in this very same PC. That time I knew little about system and BIOS setting and had to use another PC for audio purposes (digitalizing of tapes and vinyl).
    As reference I used the PCI Interrup Request Routing table, found on page 2-32 in KT4's manual. Funny thing is that Sandra XI tells now that my two Ethernet cards having both INT pin A# while by their slots they should be B# and D#. I don't have true understanding what this means though. In BIOS the PNP/PCI Configurations has all slot IRQs on Auto.
    Is this conflict easily cured by re-positioning card(s) on other slot(s) or addressing IRQ settings manually, and if so how and in which order? Or should I remove all the cards and install them in certain order...?
    I'm quite exhausted as I had some component issues with my new PC and now this KT4 once again rejects my sound card. Maybe I'm better off by installing it on my new PC, but then this failure with Bluetooth dongle, (which I put on the USB port of KT4, not on the USB exp. card.) Oh my, why can't sound card and ethernet card live together!?!
    I would appreciate your help very highly.

    Hope you get things like you want them!
    Eh, made this in 2003, but I'm not sure if it isn't more confusing than anything else:
    "The use and sharing of IRQs aren't mentioned in my MSI manual, (due to the APIC function I think), so I had to go to some ASUS manuals. As standards are standards, I believe things can't be to different. If someone has any addings or suggestions please come forward, so I can adjust the table.
    *Please note that this is generally speaking and mainly for ASUS boards a few years old!
    **Please note that you should not have any sharing with the IDE controller or similar!
    ***Please note that it is a good thing to have expansion PCI sound cards in slot 3!
    ****Please note that surprisingly enough it looks like PCI slot 2 would be free for any device, but AGP cards get hot and bigger so it is not a great idea.
    IRQ sharing table
    PCI 1 shares with PCI slot 5
    2 shares with AGP and PCI slot 6, or sometimes with onboard IDE
    3 shares not, or sometimes with onboard audio/modem
    4 shares with onboard LAN
    5 shares PCI slot 1
    6 shares with AGP and PCI slot 5
    AGP slot shares with PCI slots 5 and 6
    USB 1 shares with USB 2, 3 and USB 2.0
    2 shares with USB 1, 3 and USB 2.0
    3 shares with USB 1, 2 and USB 2.0
    USB 2.0 shares with USB 1, 2, and 3
    Onboard audio/modemshares not, or sometimes with slot 3
    Onboard LAN shares with PCI slot 4
    Onboard IDE shares not, or sometimes with PCI slot 2 "
    Normally it is best to let Windows or whatever OS you run do the job. Setting IRQ:s yourself is a (too) big assignment.

  • KT4 Ultra and SATA

    I have a KT4 Ultra that supports SATA Raid and Im looking at getting a new HDD. CAn I run my old PATA HDD with a SATA HDD without it being in raid format or do the disk have to be in a raid format.

    Hey guys, how about this:  
    MSI KT4 Ultra SR, Win2000, PDC 20376 Promise Serial ATA chip on board.  WD 40gig IDE hd as primary on IDE 1.  Attached a Maxtor 120gig SATA to the Serial ATA 1 connector. While booting did NOT setup an array.  Windows 2000 in Disk Management under Device Manager/Disk Drives has now two folders, one for the WD and one that says SCSI Disk Device.  It's also also recognized under System Information/Components/Storage as SCSI controlled by the Fast Track 376 controller.   Is this a proper way to setup the serial Maxtor as an extra single drive in the system attached to the Serial interface?  Is this even possbile?  My problem is that while the drive is recognized as a SCSI disk device as described above, it is NOT seen under Disk Management as a new unformatted drive with a new letter.  Assuming the above setup is correct, how do I format the drive so Windows can use it?  Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you.

  • Serial ATA on MSI KT4 Ultra FISR??

    Hello
    Just a general query here about Serial ATA on the 6590 board (KT4 Ultra FISR).
    I am hoping to build a system with this board and was hoping to start with only one HD, preferably an 80Gb Serial ATA drive.  Does the promise raid controller on this board allow you to boot on a single serial ATA drive?
    P.S.  I was also hoping to add a Radeon 9700 card (not pro) but have read about many problems within this forum.  Does anyone know if the problems have been cleared?
    Thanks
     ?(

    Well, my idea was to buy a Serial ATA drive from the outset and use it as the only HD in the system.  Therefore, it would have to start on the serial ATA raid port.
    The only other boot option I can see which may be relevant is "Legacy SCSI".  Doesn't sound right though.  There are also a lot of BBS (BIOS boot specification) choices from 0 to 9 but I dont know what they are.
    There are about 25 boot options including from USB CDROM drives but nothing specific to RAID!

  • KT4 Ultra reboot before booting

    Ok, this is going to be long, but I'm hoping one of the details will give somebody a clue.  I'm going to stick in details I don't think are relevant even.
    The components relevent to this story:
    KT4 Ultra Motherboard
    Addtronics 300W power supply
    Athlon XP 2400+ cpu
    Windows XP SP1
    2 seagate 120gig SATA drive in a mirrored RAID config
    A cheap off brand UPS.
    This machine had been up and running about 9-10 months on the current install.  The machine was ROCK solid.  I ran this machine 24/7 with reboots only for getting rid of adware or stuff like that.  Never did I see a blue screen or any bad behaivor.  And I never even bothered to cycle the power during this time.  Sounds good right?
    Well I'm doing some work on the carpeting in my office, so I shut it down and moved the machine to a different room.  Well I got everything plugged in and powered it up, and to my surprise it started doing a chkdsk (the in boot chkdsk) since it wanted to, I let it go.  Well as I watched I could see tons of errors coming as I'm watching this many of the files where clusters were being repaired were in the Windows/system32 directory.  So I'm thinking to myself I'm screwed (which is true), as I see the names of vital system files going by.
    So after completion it automatically reboots (chkdsk forced it), so I get to the screen where the login should be, but no press ctrl alt del to begin message but instead I get a box saying a service (lssas i think) specified invalid parameters.  I click ok, and I having nothing but a solid blue screen.  I press ctrl alt del and nothing, so I reboot again.  This time I get the same error, but I also get the ctrl alt del to begin message, and I press, I then enter my login message.  It does stuff for a second and then reboots.  
    So now I let it reboot again, and during the reboot it powers down.  I was confused by this.  I pressed the power switch, and I could see the power, hd leds blink for a sec and then blink off and the PS doesn't even start.  So I press again a few times and get nothing.  I leave it alone for awhile, come back and it powers up again.  Same error, same login attempt, same power down.  
    I grab my laptop from the otherroom and plug it in to the same wall socket (directly not through the UPS) that my UPS is plugged into.  At that instant, it goes in to power save mode (too quick to be normal power saving), so I quick unplug it, and plug it into the ups.  As I plug it in, it it comes out of power save and operates normally (that's what I'm working with).  So I'm thinking something is wrong with the power outlet (I will pursue that tomorrow), so I go and grab one of those indoor/outdoor orange heavy duty extension cords and plug everything into a different room, and all seems to be working fine.  
    So at this point i try my computer again, same thing.  I decide its time to repair the winxp install, so I boot off of the XP cd and load the RAID drivers.  Right at the screen where it says R to repair, something to install, something to exit, I choose repair, and it immediatly powers down.  I did it again, and this time it powers down a second after this screen comes up.
    So this is where I am now.  I think I had bad power or something, and I now suspect that the PS or the motherboard might be bad.  But since it really consisently powers down at the same point, im confused as to what the problem is.
    Anybody have help to offer?

  • URGENT- Removing KT4 Ultra

    hi Guys,
    This is the first time I have ever done this (removing Kt4 Ultra) so would be very grateful if you could help. I have looked in the manual but there is no help on removing the motherbard and the holes don't seem famiiar. I have tried using a screwdriver but it doesn't seem to release the motherbaord. Any help appreciated.

    Of course you removed first all cards inserted in slots and CPU/HSF and cables connected to Mobo. If you don't know where are the Mobo's holes you should take a look to the base plate where screws are inserted, so you'll have an exact idea where you'll find screws heads. For this, you have to take off side case cover. If not screws were used to mount Mobo, most possible plastic stand offs were used so you'll see white plastic points you can cut, freeing this way Mobo. Almost all Mobos has 6 holes ( 2 lines of 3 holes or 3 lines of 2 holes, 4 in the squares and 2 in the middle edges of Mobo) Take care when using screwdriver, as is easy to scrach Mobo.
