[VIA] Problem with a KT4V MB.

Hello
I ahve a problem, I linked two computers in a network and whenver I try to copy something to and from the KT4V Computer it restarts itself. Also the computer reboots randomly in Windows or at windows xp startup screen (5 sec after starting comp).
What should I do ? Can it be a MB problem ? what can It be?
The computer is:
MB: KT4V
CPU: AMD 2000+ Mhz
RAM: 1x 128 DDRAM PC 2100 PQI and 1x 128 DDRAM PC 2700 Samsung
HDD: 40GB Western Digital
Video: FX5200 nVidia
ATX Source 400W: with +12 18A / +5 32A / +3.3 25A
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Download this prgram and use it to test the memory.
http://www.memtest.org/download/1.55.1/memtest86+-1.55.1.floppy.zip
Extract all files to a folder first then run the install.bat and it will create a memtest bootdisk.
Again using 1 stick at a time run the program for at least 1 hour.
Any errors means that there is a problem with the memory/power.
Should everything be ok then try clearing the CMOS using the Jbat jumper.
Also the CPU should be running at 1.667Ghz (133x12.5).

[VIA] Problems with my 6200 OC installed in a KM400 mb

About 3 weeks ago I bought a BFG 6200 OC, I have installed the video on my computer, then I test the video with game like: Doom 3 and Painkiller(OpenGl games) and card worked perfect but when I tried to play games that use DirectX 8.0 or upper the only things that appeared on the screen were lines and some corrupted textures, I have dowload all nvidia possible driver but with no positive result, then some people told me that my mainboard (KM400) have some problems with some graphics cards, I update the bios, and via drivers using the live updates but I still have the problem. (I test the video card into another machine, a pcchip based board, and it works perfect).

[VIA] Problems with MSI KT6 Delta

MSI KT6 Delta
AMD XP 2000+
256 MB DDR 400
GeForce FX5200 128 MB DDR
I installed WinXP+SP1 and VIA4in1 v4.55 with NVIDIA 66.93 drivers. The screen fades out and in less than a second the picture shows up again.
Note: What should appear in device manager in section "System devices" after installing VIA4in1 v4.55?
I tried: changing video card, RAM memory, installing WinXP+SP2 (worse results!)
Thanks in advance

The system reports no errors nor conflicts in Device Manager window. This problem appeared when I did an upgrade from WinXP SP1 to SP2. I use Fedora Core on the same computer with NVIDIA drivers installed and there were no problems. I tried to change the monitor but it was the same. I think I managed to solve the problem by installing WinXP SP1 and an older NVIDIA driver (version 4.5.2.3) and VIA 4in1 pack 4.55. Everything runs smooth for now.

[VIA] Problem with Creative X-FI on KT6 Delta FI2SR

Hi all
I have a KT6 Delta FI2SR with 1GB PC3200 400MHz DDR, and an Athlon 3200XP+, running BIOS 5.7 (latest).
I recently bought and added a Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS soundcard, and I have an issue....
The card was installed, is on IRQ19 (no conflicts anywhere with sound), and on-board sound is disabled.
Randomly, on cold boot, I get told "NVRAM Update OK", and then I get NO SOUND!
It stays like that until I reboot and it "Updates" again, or I clear the NVRAM in BIOS.
LOTS of people on the Creative Forum have reported similar issues with ASUS Mobos, and nForce chipsets, but this is an MSI with VIA!
ALL (and I do mean ALL) device drivers are up to date....
Can someone @ MSI look into this? ASUS have resolved their issue with BIOS updates, but nothing for this board for a while!
I've tried mailing MSI support BUT [email protected] AND [email protected] get SMTP failures (no known username).

I would hope the PSU is fine - it's a 620 watt PSU which I bought when I installed a GeForce 6800GT
Both motherboard power connectors are connected up. PSU has two outgoing rails, with 3 main Molex and 1 mini (floppy) adaptor on each rail.
In the machine we have :
1 x Asus V9999GT GeForce 6800GT AGP 8x card (with dual molex connectors)
1 x Creative X-FI Fatal1ty FPS PCI card
1 x Adaptec 29040UW SCSI controller PCI card
2 x 80GB Maxtor 7200RPM SATA HDD drives (as one RAID0 array)
1 x Creative Fatal1ty FPS front bay (powered - small connector)
1 x MSI Dual-Layer DVD+RW Drive
1 x HP Surestore 12/24 DDS3 DAT Drive
1 x Panasonic LS-120 HDD Floppy Drive
1 x IOMega ZIP 250 ATAPI Drive
Logitech cordless keyboard & mouse on PS2 connectors
COM1 has a trackball
COM2 is a signal cable for a Liebert Powersure UPS
LPT1 is disabled (I have a networked printer)
7 of 8 USB slots are currently in use : (Joystick, Bluetooth adaptor, Fuji 6900Z Camera, Primefilm 35mm film scanner (own power), HP Jornada 568 PDA (own power), Logitech QuickCam Home webcam, Wacom Graphire Tablet)
CPU fan is powered and adjustable, and the case has 7 controllable fans.
There is a SCSI scanner (own power) and the 17" LCD monitor connected (on it's own power) as well, and thats it.
I've disabled the Case LED (which was also powered).
Obviously there are a couple of power splitters in there to supply power to the various internals

Voltage problem with MS6712 KT4V

hi...all
i have prob with a level of tension on the motherboard.In bios i cans see in PC HEALT that the +12V is approximative 13V-13,5 V(-12V is correclty at -12V)
I think that is a problem,
i'm not sure:when i have connected cable of reset switche,led,power switch i am not sure that is correctly maked.The del's work, switche work....but.....i'm not sure for pin's....
can give me a answer plz! ?(
thx

most psu work to plus or minus 10 percent on 12v rail
so it in theory should not go over 13.2v
as to them i can only suggest reading the manual
most cases the most common colour is the - line

[VIA] Problem with kt3 ultra 2 and 2800+ Barton

Please help. I've a 2800+ barton on my motherboard 6380E with bios 5.7 But my processor is recignized as a 2500+.
In the bios, my Fsb is 166 and all the rest is on auto. I've 1,5 GB memory pc2700 333 mhz.
I'm trying to force 12.5/13 in bios but it stay as 11.5 (saw with cpuz). What can i do to have the 2800+ recognized with this motherboard ? Help !!! I've change the FSB to 180, but with cpu-z, the processor is still a 2500+

You could try WCPUID, which can also determine the cpu that you have.
http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA002374/src/download.html
Failing that as Wonkanoby said check the codes on the cpu itself.
Perhaps as an alternative just try raising the FSB from 166 to 167. Upon boot instead of the bios detecting the cpu, it will give you the clock speed albeit at 167. Since you have the multiplier you can then work out the clock speed at 166, if you see what I mean and determine (or have a better idea) of the cpu that you have.
Good Luck

MS6712 Video and LAN problems with Windows 98SE

Can anyone help please with a problem that’s been baffling me for weeks.I
The computer in question is a TIME Powerstation with AMD 2600+ processor with 1024MB RAM, Nvidia Geforce FX5200 and Windows XP Home.
Have set this computer to Dual Boot to Windows 98SE (Using Acronis OS Selector software).
My problem is that after many attempts, have so far been unable to successfully load drivers for the Nvidia GeForce FX5200 graphics card or to get the LAN function to work in Windows 98.
For the graphics card have tried a number of the more recent Nvidia Detonator Win98 drivers, all have either produced an error message (‘While initialising device IFSMGR: Windows Protection Error’) or a blank screen. Necessitating reverting back to the Standard VGA Driver with its maximum of 16 colours! The LAN function does not work at all in Windows 98SE, though it does in Windows XP – again suspect a driver problem.
The motherboard of this computer is a MSI Microstar MS6712. Have tried the ‘VIA Chipset 4 in 1 Driver’ to no avail. Are any more/different drivers required for Windows 98SE?
Would appreciate any advice in what originally was envisaged as a simple task: getting Nvidia Geforce FX 5200 graphics card and the motherboard’s built in LAN to run correctly on Windows 98.

I have your board.
1. Windows 98 won't recognize more then 512MB of RAM.
2. I had problems with the FX 5200 Ultra on this board. Occasionally when I booted the system, I would get a black screen right after the post when the OS was about to load. I've been hearing a few people lately stating problems with the KT4V-L mobo and the FX 5200 Ultra. I promptly returned the card and got a Radeon 9700 Pro instead. I have never been more happy since I made that decision. I will never put another Nvidia card in this mobo again. I also had issues with the Geforce4 MX card I had. I've come to the conclusion that Nvidia sucks.
3. Make sure your BIOS is updated to 1.9, and al lyour VIA drivers are updated. That may help you too.
That's all I can offer.

IDE problems with KT4V-L?

Hi, I am trying to resolve a long standing problem with regards to cd/dvd drive issues - both with reading and burning. I have had a system based around the KT4V-L mobo for about 3 years now and about 2 years ago I started experiencing problems with my msi cdrw drive- problems reading and burning discs, both blank and written. I tried various possible solutions i.e. new cable, different ide placement, firmware upgrade, different burning software, via drivers, various WXP tweaks, mobo bios upgrade/tweaks, even a fresh XP install (vanilla xp pro) but nothing would stop me churning out coasters. I then thought that the drive itself must be faulty and swapped it for a new one only to have exactly the same problem. I limped on for a good while (everything else works just fine) until dual layer dvd burners got cheaper and decided to swap my cdrw for a samsung dl dvdrw. Still same problems... especially with dvds. Another fresh install of WXP pro (sp2) has yielded no improvement nor has trying mandrake linux (ver. 10). Anyhoo, my thinking now is that there may be a fault with the onboard ide controller although my HDD has always worked fine... As I said before, I have tried all the different placements/settings with regards to ide connections/cables/jumpers and bios settings.
Sorry to bang on for so long but it has been driving me slowly mad for a good while Any help gratefully received as I am on the verge of binning the mobo and just buying a new (different) one...

Thanks for the response osnavi, the first cdrw drive was well under a year old when I changed it and had only had light to medium use. I agree that the power supply could be better but the fact remains that everything worked perfectly for the first year-ish. At that time I actually had another dvd drive alongside the cdrw with no problems until this issue arose- I then had to physically remove the dvd drive to get the cdrw working at all. I currently have my HDD as primary master and the dvdrw as secondary master but as I said previously I have tried all the various settings available. The HDD is running in ultra dma mode 6 and the dvdrw is ultra dma mode 2 - I did have to reset this as WXP had demoted it to PIO mode only, presumably due to multiple errors... Re. the power supply issue, is it possible that the system ran fine for a year (with slightly more load due to the extra dvd drive) and then just b0rked out? I have had no other issues at all with this system and I am a fairly application heavy user (photoshop, quark, fps games etc). Is it also possible that the upgraded bios may have caused the problem as I did flash it from the original OTB bios to version 1.9 as directed by the msi live update system?
Thanks again for your interest.

Problems with KT4V and AtiRadeon 9700 Pro...

Hi all,
I have lots of problems with my current configuration with games (lock ups) and even in normal use. Also I'm not able to run 3DMark through to see with kind of results would I get. Car chase (high) gets very low fps and the nature test doesn't even work. I have tried different 4in1 drivers and BIOS versions. With 1.6 BIOS version I had lots of CRC errors (should be corrected in BIOS ver. 1.7 but in expense of data rate?). Does anyone have any suggestions so that I could for example go through the 3DMark even with the expense of performance?
I had those game lock up problems also earlier with KT7A-100 RAID + AtiRadeon 64 (3DMark worked) so I bought new graphic card (didn't help) and after that I bought the new mobo. I know my config is not the best in the world, but I think it should be enough to give some happy moments in ever so demanding games... for a while...
There is also one thing that is quite strange. In my display adapters there is two drivers for AtiRadeon (primary in AGP and secondary in PCI)? I'm not expert, but isn't that weird? I have tried installing different drivers again and again (also reinstalled OS) with no luck! Trying to delete the secondary one doesn't help...
Help..........!

Kt4v possible problem with bios 1.8 and hd

Any Idea anyone with this one.
system running well till the other day when hd went very slow even after defrag, install bios 1.8 and reset the bios and adjusting it for my setup. Come to check my harddrive with maxtor powerdiag 3.04 and could not find the drive or any other drives connected. In the bios setup the drive is present. I removed all drives, cdroms, etc except the maxtor main hd and tried again with the same result. After placing in an ata100 controller card in to a spare pci slot and plugged the hd on to it, that the software sees the drive. The test finished and show the HD to be fine.
The question is do I have a problem with the onboard contoller or with the new bios or both.
When I first got this MB I did the same test with the original bios and the hd connected to the MB controller and the software had no problem seeing that and other drive connected.

I'll stick with the V1.10, but I'd fell better if MSI showed me they actively update their systems by releasing updated BIOS files from time to time.
I can't sell a 15000$ storage system that doesn't recognise the CPUs installed. The customer would laugh and tell me to come back with a supported system.
Isn't this a VERY valid reason for wanting updates? Even if it only is an updated CPU list?
The only reason I tried this MSI board is that it was the only one available with my retailer at the time I bought it with 3 PCI-X 100Mhz slots. Maybe I should go with a Tyan Thunder next time. Tyan at least show some activity.

Why do I get an "unable to connect - There may be a problem with the mail server or network." message from iCloud. I have verified the settings. I can access my iCloud account online but can't send or receive e-mail via the mail account.

Text limits to the "Question" link prevents a full explanation:
This is a long-time problem. I have tried to resolve it with Apple but their "Customer Support" is merely a name.
I can go online and access my e-mail but when I try to send or receive e-mail via iCloud through my internet server (Google fiber now but the same situation existed with my prior service), I receive "There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for 'Apple Email' and try again.
"The server returned the error: The server 'p0-imap.mail.me.com' refused to allow a connection on port 143."
Well, I have verified the setting and tried again and again and …
Well, you get the idea …

Maybe you should test these things before calling people out, because these settings do function perfectly well.
iCloud is not supported on Snow Leopard or lower, why bother to mention it?
The OP has an iCloud account, and that can not be opened without Lion or Mountain Lion (on a Mac), IOS5 or 6 (on an iPhone/iPad)

Hi Noob Søren
There are a few things that are confusing in your question.
As far as I know, you dont have to install Time Machine on this OS as it is already installed for you. You only need to connect a hard drive to your computer via firewire or usb, click on the Time Machine icon, Open Time Machine Preference in the drop down menu and select a disk: your connected hard drive.
You can of course reformat this connected device, partition it into a few volumes to organise data if you so wish.
I find it strange that your mac's hard drive is divided into two volumes... perhaps this was created through bootcamp?
You can access the configuration of your hd through Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities.
Clicking on one of the icons on the right hand panel will bring the details of the contents of your hardDrive and volumes. From there you can decide to erase a partition, reformat etc....
If your hd contains more than one volume, and one of them is empty, you could decide to remove it. Back up all your important data before doing so.
Hope this helps

Had a problem with my iPad 2 and took it into apple store to get it restored to factory settings. I now need to restore from iTunes but can't see my iPad when connected via USB, any ideas please?

Help !! I had a problem with my iPad 2 this morning which resulted in me taking into the apple store and them restoring it to factory settings. They advised me to restore all my apps etc from iTunes which I am trying to do, however once connected via the USB I cannot see it as a device on iTunes, and I keep getting the message on my laptop "the iPad cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 11.1 or later, go to iTunes.com/uk and download the latest version"
I cannot see what the version of iTunes is on my iPad and have gone into safari to try and download but not able to as it tells me iTunes is already loaded. I have the latest version on my laptop so I am stuck as to what to do next. Any suggestions please??
