When will the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum BIOS 1.C be released?

Hello
When will the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum BIOS 1.C be released?
Thanks
FearTec

Don´t know the reason for you guys, for updating bios, but basically I would recommend Syars modded EasyBios, based on the 1C3 (1C0) version.
Check out the link in Syars sig or read it here;
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=59711.0
and read about the differant version and you´ll get a pretty good idea whats changed and added.

When will the next K8N NEO PL bios come out??

i hate this board now!
1. it randomly freezes in Counter-Strike when using OpenGL acc.
but running other games perfectly.
2. the AGP/PCI lock need hacks to work.
3. cant past 231FSB when overclocking. If higher than 231FSB,it just cant boot!
though u can get stable in windows,but once poweroff,it never boot until u clear the cmos setting.
4. poor 3d performance when runnig a nVidia card.
5. it reads higher temps! when running my newcastle 3200+ with the stock heatsink, idle 65 degrees , and fullload 78+ degrees. But actually, the heatsink is not so hot.
6. Poor Little heatsink on NorthBridge.
ADD:
7. max 2.85V ram volt only and no .5 cpu multiples.
and MORE!
MSI should fix them in the coming bios.

Plenty of people are asking the same question about BIOS.
Your nVidia card should actually run better than a Radeon, paired with the nForce 3 250 GB chipset.
Temp reading on Newcastle core CPU's is a know issue, but basically it's just being mid-read. This is AMD's fault, not MSI's.
NB heatsinks can be replaced. Think yourself lucky you don't use an Arctic Cooling VGA Silencer on your GFX card.

3700+ san diego core and msi k8n neo2 platinum bios

will i need a bios update to get my 3700+ san diego core to work in my system. currently my motherboard bios is 1.5 Fedex sometime today is suppose to drop off my new 3700+ san diego core today. if i do need a bios, were can i get one for it to work.

Offcially that board does not have support for San Diego at this time, so if you have got it working, as some people have it may have some wierd and wonderful effects on your system.
A guy on another forum got a response from a MSI tech that said they were working on it and to check their site regularly for a bios update. As far as "weird and wonderful effects" my setup has never run faster or smooter since I upgraded from my 3500+ Winchester. This is the 3rd day I've been running the San Diego, have had no problems other then having to use A64 tweaker to set RAM timing to 1T. 500Mhz overclock stock voltage, air-cooled, prime stable, I ran the torture test for 9 hours overnight!
Check it out!

MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum (WAKE On Lan with Realtek)?

Hello can the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum (BIOS 1.B) WAKE On Lan with the Realtek card?
It does not appear to work for me and there is nothing in the BIOS.
My WOL packets wake up other PC's.
Please Help.

Hello !
Go into Bios Setup, Integrated Periphals, and disable the nvidia Lan, but let the Onboard LAN enabled.
Now go to PCI Configuration, Wakeup Events, and enable wakeup on PCI event and wake on LAN.
Check in Boot Order Menu if you can select the realtek onboard Lan as first booting device, push it in first place.
Another Option could be using the nvidia Lan, its reported to work with wakeon lan.

Reboot problem with MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and 250 GB SATA HDD

I'm having a "reboot" problem with my MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum. After turning my system on it will run without any problems, until I reboot. After a reboot it will always hang after the initial windows-bootscreen. The HDD-light will remain on. If, instead of going into Windows XP SP2, I try to enter the BIOS after a reboot (DEL) the system will also hang (blank screen with blinking cursor).
It started doing this after I installed the Maxtor 250 GB SATA disk. Before, I didn't have problems rebooting. If I disconnect the Maxtor drive I can reboot and enter BIOS and Windows each and every time. Reconnecting the Maxtor 250 GB SATA drive will return the reboot problem. I always have to use the power swith to get a working system again. It's not enough to do a hard reset (this has the same effect as rebooting).
Here are the details of my system:
MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum (BIOS 1.B)
Athlon 64 3200+ (Winchester, 2 Ghz, 512 KB cache, stepping DH-D0)
2 x Kingston KVR400X64C25/512, 512 MB, DDR, PC3200 (2,5-3-3-8 T1)
Asus Radeon AX800 Pro (256 MB)
PSU Antec Sonata 380W
HDD Maxtor 80Gb ATA (6Y080P0, Pri Master)
HDD Seagate 250Gb SATA (ST3200822AS)
HDD Maxtor 250Gb SATA (6V250F0 - jumpered in SATA150 mode, the mobo wouldn't work with the drive in SATA300-mode)
Aopen COM5232/AAH Pro CD-Writer ATA (Sec Master)
BenQ DW1640 DVD-Writer ATA (Sec Slave)
P.S. The NVidia IDE-drivers are NOT installed. System is not overclocked.

Thank you for all the replies. Upgrading to the latest Nvidia IDE-drivers did not fix my problem. Moving to other SATA-ports did not help either. Upgrading the mobo's BIOS is not really an option (I'm using one version before the most recent and there isn't anything in the fixlist of the latest BIOS).
Now I've contacted Maxtor for (hopefully) a new firmware.

MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum - Release date?

I am sooo waiting for the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum motherboard to hit the retailstores!
I live in Sweden, Stockholm and I wonder if you guys here know when this motherboard will go gold? Is it coming to stores before in the US than the Europe or what?
I thought this was the right place to ask the question, this is after all the MSI forums!

Msi k8n neo2 platinum and corsair cmx512-3200LL

is anyone using the corsair cmx512-3200LL with the msi k8n neo2 platinum or any other motherboards? if so how well does that memory overclock for you?

LL used winbond CH-5 or BH-5 or Infineon B-5 depending on revision .
And everybody knows that it's hard to overclock winbond very far without excessive vdimm increase (2.9v - 3.4v).
Corsair XL use samsung TCCD and overclocks much easier when having a motherboard with a vdimm limit at 2.85v.
xms 4xxx also use samsung (TCCC or TCCD) and some versions use hynix D43/D5
so you can't directly compare xms3200LL with the others .
You can query RamGuy about the chips used on the spesific modules here :

MSi K8N NEO2 Platinum

Hello to everybody
just one quik question does the the Thetmaltake Tower 112 (the 100% copper made) fits the msi K8N NEO2 platinum???
i search on the net but i wasnt able to find something relevant
thenks
p.s. please post if you now for sure i don't wanna answers like it should fit..please thenks again

If it is made for a K8 then it will likely fit. However you may want to check into that things weight as most of those huge copper coolers go over the weight limit the board can support. That can lead to cracked or broken parts at some point. All that for just a couple degrees in cooling is a bad idea. If you feel you really must have better than stock cooling maybe the better thing to look at would be a watter cooling system.
Oh ya you may want to try the search button here too... {sarcasm mode off]

I like Ryan's picks. By the way AMDMB does rock...fantastic forums great info on mobo's not just AMD either.

HI! i'm the one wih the raid problem on a k8n neo2....
That's what a i Did.. i unpacked the exe and copy the files in a floppy... question is: if i do that, windows instaler askme for some files that aren't in the .exe, anway it reconices the raid and everithing goes fine until the first BOOT on windos... it shows a blue screen, butremoves it so fast that i cant read it or pause the system. But i know it's a raid problem because if i install it on a ide disk it works.
The nforce3 drivers are almost a year old, and i'm not sure if nforce4 is compatible...
I think the're compatible because if you enter in msi driver download page and select my model, they put the Nforce3 and nforce4 for win64 and my model is only nforce3. The thing is they havent released the nforce3 for WIN 64.... So.. It's normal that win asks me for some files that ain't in the .zip file (i extracted the files o course) and Which driver should i put the Nvidia one year old nforce3 or the new nforce4. (the nforce3 for 32 bits is rejected by windows) or... i have to wait the new nforce3?
thanks for helps

MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum cant upgrade to BIOS 1.4, Windows wont boot.

Hello
I have a MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and I cant upgrade to BIOS 1.4. I have tried everything and cannot get Windows XP to boot with BIOS 1.4.
I have reset the BIOS, set defaults, cleared the battery etc but when I load BIOS 1.4 (from a 98SE an ME boot dish and even from the Live Update?
The only solution is to rebuild Windows after loading BIOS 1.4???
Help

Hi !
Well, I have that problem, too. I think the reason is a new RAID-BIOS-Version built in the BIOS-Update. I´ve tried the beta-versions V1.51 and V1.5X, too - but they won´t run anyway.
My WinXp hangs while booting (before the WINDOWS-XP-Logo appears, or while fading in...). I cannot reinstall Windows completely because, when I install the 2 raid-drivers, the installation routine hangs before the licensetext - when I don´t install the drivers i cannont install on the raid-drive (beacuase the installation routine shows 2 hdds).
I think, a new driver will solve this problem, but I don´t know where to find it....

The build in firewall in MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum

Hello everyone,
I am using an MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum-54G nForce3. I wonder if anyone else is using the built in firewall? I have some problems with my Internet connection and I think it is firewall related.
I would like to know if anyone else has any valuable feedback on this subject.
Thank you!

Works fine for me, make sure you have the latest drivers installed and turn off any other firewall including the Windows one. You will find that you may have to set up some rules to open up ports for some apps. I have set mine up to play Farcry and now get no Punkbuster problems.
I am using the Nvidia ethernet to connect toe the internet and the Realtek to network my second PC.

Has the K8N Neo2 Platinum bios poroblem been fixed?

I work at CanadaComputers, and well we've been having this problem w/ people purchasing the K8N Neo2 Platinum, and a 3000+ winchester, mainly because that it wont post becuase the CPU is 90NM, where as the bios that is shipped w/ the board only supports 130NM.
I was just wondering if that was fixed or something because people that still buy the board from us, have this problem. Are we getting just the older versions of the board (the june build i think?) or has the problem just not been looked into?
Luis

Interesting that you work there. I bought an MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and AMD64 3000+ . How are people finding the Asus A8V DX and Epox 9nda3+? Any problems? I may sell my MSI and grab one of those, and actually could easily get it from CC. I don't care if I lose on total speed etc. I want stability and less problems. I haven't even put my PC together and gotten it up and running and the list of potential problems is daunting. That and the fact that I happen to have a Matrox G400 video card which won't even allow me to start my PC! Arrghh. Either that or grab a Sapphire 9600XT even though I hardly play games.

News - BIG PROBLEM - MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum - DOES NOT POWER!!!

Hi to everyone.
I'm a proudly owner of a MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum that in one year gave me no problem until yesterday morning.
I used the computer in the night before and when I finished I turned it off and I went to bed.
Yesterday morning I found the power led blinking (like if the system was in standby), and there was no way to turn the PC on.
I even took off the battery for more than 12 hours and I left only minimal components installed:
the video card (Gainward GeForce 6800),
the psu (Antec TruePower 550W),
1 x 512 MB Ram Crucial Ballistix,
and I checked them into another computer and they work perfectly.
I tried shorting the MB power switch pins with a screwdriver and I've even tried to power on the system without the Memory or the Video Card... I've tried everything that came across my mind with no efforts!!!!
Every time I give power to the MB appens only that the power led starts blinking, but pressing the button the PC doesn't turn on.
PLEASE HELP ME... I really don't know what else to do!!!
Thanks,
Alberto

Hi thanks for the answers.
I do have a D-Bracket, but my problem is not that the system does not boot or does not post... my system DOES NOT POWER ON (!!!!), so d-bracket is useless!
When I plug the system power the only thing that happens is that the power led starts blinking (with the system still in soft-off), and if I press the power switch button nothing happens!
I've the bios for 7025 v1.8 and the settings where for OFF on power-loss ond pressing the button (can't rememeber if it was more than 4 sec) was meant to turn off the computer, but considering that I un-powered the pc more than once without the MB battery the settings should be factory default by now.
I went through the Windows-XP shut-down system, and i could not be an electrical problem as I always used the PC with a pretty good UPS unit.
Right now these are the full specs of my sytem:
- MB MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum nForce3 Ultra
- GAINWARD 6800 2600 GLH 256 MB Ram
- PSU Antec TruPower 550 W
- CPU AMD64 3500+ core Winchester @11*210 Mhz (this cpu has never overclocked very well)
- HEATSINK Thermalright XP-90 with a 12 Cm Enermax Fan (CPU temp in always below 55 °C when stressed)
- 1 x 512 Mb RAM Crucial Ballistix DDR400 optimized for MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum
I left only these things inside my computer in the hope that it would turn on... it did not work. I tested each component but the MB, and they work perfectly.
Again...
Thanks for you efforts, any help will be appreciated.
Alberto.
All parts have been tested: CPU/RAM/GFX/PSU/HD/DVD, just not the MOBO ?
Checked if the MOBO is shorting in the case ?
Have you tried using the reset switch as power, on/off switch ? I've seen before when the power switch stops working (lose/bad wire busted spring) after swapping reset to power, then the system turned on. Worth a try, as sending it back to USA won't be cheap. If its over 1 year old it mite not be covered by the re-seller and or MSI. Best to check this out as law and warranty is different from country to country.
Good Luck
