K8T Neo-FIS2R latest mobo revision

Hi
I am wondering does anybody know wich is latest mobo revision for K8T Neo-FIS2R.
Mine mobo revision is 1.0

wow after standing on my head i found it mine says 02
i am thinking this isnt too helpful as for all i know that is the month it was built..or the inspector number,...
but it was fun trying to find it..a red sticker on a red board
i should have figured it would be near the revision number.

Cant get into Bios, New board (K8T Neo-FIS2R)

I just put in a new board and cpu, everything seems to start up fine. BUT I press DEL to get into the bios settings and it tells me theres no bios installed. My HDs wont autodetect at the start so i havent gotten to windows yet, HD taken from old pc with winxp on it already.
Im totally lost here as what to do.
Can i just DL the newest bios drivers and flash?

no bios installed
...that's the Promise controller...you have to press Delete when you first power on, you're probably missing the timing because of the Core Cell screen...
...you don't want to flash the BIOS until you get a stable system...well, you could, but...

I have a problem. I've been my HD but I lost the temperature probe and I can't find it anyway. Can someone help me? Thanks

Can someone help me to find a temperature probe for the imac's Hard Disc? I'm tired of looking for but I can't find it.

What you are asking isn't clear. Are you saying that you are not getting any temp readout for the drive? What are you using to see the internal temps? If you aren't getting any output from the drive temp sensor, the drive fan should be revving up full speed. Is this happening?
Get Temperature Monitor and post the results

No temperature probes

I'm not sure if this is a kernel issue, but I can't seem to get my temperature readings on Arch. I ran sensors-detect and followed the wiki article just to be safe. lm-sensors said that it detected quite a few sensor modules (or so I thought) but this is the only temperature probe that registers under Arch:
blender ~ $ sensors
k10temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1: +29.2°C (high = +70.0°C)
Also, I can't modprobe the coretemp module, which might be an issue:
blender ~ $ sudo modprobe coretemp
ERROR: could not insert 'coretemp': No such device
Does anyone know what this means? Any help is appreciated!

The module coretemp is for Intel processors. If you don't have an Intel processor, it doesn't load. Even if you have an Intel processor, it doesn't work with older models.
What modules did sensors-detect suggest to load?
Since you have the k10temp-pci module, this

may be the equivalent for coretemp on your machine.

K8T Neo-FSR showing incorrect CPU temperature

Hello. I recently purchased a K8T Neo-FSR, which came with BIOS v2.2 installed. For some reason, it wouldn't allow me to set my own memory timings (it always used the "safe and sane" SPD values, according to CPU-Z, regardless of any BIOS settings I tried). I wasn't about to sit back and let my expensive new memory go underclocked, so following some advice I found on an obscure German forum, I installed the v7.1 BIOS from MSI's global site. That fixed the timing issue, but now the board is reporting incorrect temperatures for my CPU. It usually fluctuates between 23-26c, but will occasionally rise to nearly 30c and then immediately drop back down again. Case temperature remains stable at 27c. When I first installed the board, the temps were right around 45c, almost 20 degrees higher, which seems a lot more accurate to me (though this was also before I upgraded the crappy heatsink).
Is this anything to be concerned about, and is the CPU temperature supposed to constantly fluctuate like that? I'm worried that if my fan fails or something else goes wrong, the sytem won't react until the temperature is 20 degrees OVER the safe limit. I have a feeling it interferes with the Cool n' Quiet functions, too, though my CPU fan (Thermaltake Venus 7) has its own built-in sensor and adjusts itself automatically anyway.
Aside from the temperature wackiness, the system is rock-solid and runs like a dream. Specs are in my signature.

There are 754 Venice's out there as NewEgg sold them at one point from what I gather as I was looking at what was the best 754 but settled for the Clawhammer.
I have just stopped using CoreCentre on my XP as it started to show extremely erroneous and frightening temps so I ran MBM5 in conjunction as well as used my Cases thermal probes and guess which one was wrong...?
This was after seating and reseating the cooler, CPU, memory many times and it was only on Asetek's forums that reminded me that I should maybe do some independant tests by taping probes on the cpu's board as close to the core as poss, a difference of twenty degrees no less.
CoreCentre seems to have got a bit lost and a tad annoyed as I cross checked after buying the components for a 1/2" inch custom watercooling setup.
Now this is the current temp and voltages I get:
The 45 degree high was me using Prime to "cook" the thermal paste as I had to reseat the Artic Freezer 64 as it had dropped a touch.
My ClawHammer is for some reason one of those that never had a heatspreader which of course leads to difficulties with such coolers as the Freezer 64 Pro. Does anyone know where I can get another spreader or should I just leave it...?
I am not going to o/c this CPU to be honest, since sorting the temps out and once the watercooling is on, 3.2Ghz is plenty good for me for the moment and bearing in mind the Neo's touchyness about settings in BIOS I am very much considering now to roll back the BIOS to 1.9 as it was 2.2 that started causing the problems.
As for the memory timings, my Neo is totally ignoring any attempts to change the timings of my memory, I had to part company with my XMS Crucial sticks because the Neo had all sorts of problems and running some of the best memory at DDR200 was pointless.

[875P Neo FIS2R] Dead Mobo or dead CPU?

I've got the Neo FIS2R (PCB 1.0) version with a nothwood 2.8C CPU and all of a sudden, a couple of days ago my system stopped working.
When I press the power button the fans work just for an instant and then everything stops...
One thing I've noticed though is that, either with or without the cpu on the board, when the 4-pin 12V connector is not connected, I can power up the system and I got 4 green leds on the D-bracket. Once I connect the 12V again, I cant power up my system
I've tried with a different PSU and with all the cards, drives etc disconnected and I get the same results.
If anyone has any idea, if it is the CPU or the mobo that is dead, please, please tell me

Hi Maesus thanks for your input.
The problem is that i dont have access to another S478 board, if I did things would be much simpler indeed...
By the way another thing that came into my mind, is that I have 1GB RAM (2x512MB dual channel at "fast" setting in the bios) and I had overclocked the CPU from [email protected] by increasing the FSB @ 215MHz. I had also increased the core voltage of the CPU @ more than 1.6V. The AGP and PCI buses were left at default speeds but the AGP voltage was increased a little as in some games I overclocked the video card as well from inside the windows.
The past couple of weeks or so, I had all kinds of BSODs (from STOP 0x0000007f errors to IRQL_NOT_LESS...) out of the blue quite frequently, either when running specific applications or completely randomly.
I am mentioning the above, because I've read in other forums that it is a frequent phenomenon for Northwood CPUs to die when increasing the core voltage above a level (SNDS) and one of the symptoms indicating that the CPU is dying is frequent BSODs a few weeks before they die.
In fact, before my system died, I had a BSOD and after that the computer shut down and couldnt be turned on again (I saw the BSOD when I was sleeping...but not in my dreams and the next morning the system was dead. I have disabled the auto-restart after a BSOD in the windows).
Any help will be appreciated.

MSI K8T Neo... where's the case badge???

Just recently got my K8T Neo motherboard, and got to wondering, "where's the MSI K8 Mainboard sticker?" I don't know if the board was supposed to come with one, but I've liked to have one ever since my old MSI K7 nForce2 board, and was looking forward to proudly displaying my MSI K8 pride. So, if the board wasn't meant to come packaged with one, do they actually make those stickers, and where can I get one?

i was looking foward to getting one too, but alas the board didn't come with one
and since my athlon 64 was oem that didn't come with one either. so basically i got no stickers in my highly overpriced system

K8T Neo Mobo

I have the chance to buy a K8T Neo board from my local computer store. i am wondering if someone can confirm if this will support the Sempron 64-bit 3100+. i checked the MSI website but its vague as to what it supports, i would greatly appreciate any help. Also what equipment would u recommend for this mobo. i was thinking of :- AMD Sempron 64 3100+, 512mb DDR 400 PC3200. but i am unsure as to what rating of powersupply is recommended. thanks. Andy

As said before, you might need to flash the BIOS before it can support it....
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_cpu_support.php
Also, most of the time it should even start without the right BIOS...
To test this, plug in some old PC-2x00 memory stick...see if it starts....
It also depends on the powersupply you use, like some old 300W thinggy won't be able to bring it alive...

Where do i find bios v1.1 for k8n neo platuinum?

i'm wondering where i can find bios v1.1 for my mobo k8n neo platinum?
Oh, and how do i flash my bios to use it?

Browse the forum there is a link with all the bioses.
But why would you want 1.1 ???
Its the first bios...AND IT SUX !!!
Try the 1.4 official if you don't want to be a beta tester...
You can get that from live update that comes with your mobo CD.

Seagate 160 SATA Drive & Neo-FIS2R mobo

Everyone, I need your help for a newbie.
I have installed a Seagate 160mb SATA drive as my primary bootable drive on a Neo-FIS2R mobo. I have successfully moved my partitions etc from the previous drive (80GB Seagate IDE drive).
The system boots fine, Windows XP sees the drive but everytime Windows XP starts, it pops up messages saying New Hardware found and tries to install the SATA drive under the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers section in Device Manager.
Under this section in Device Manager, I see 2 IDE Channels defined with yellow circles and exclamation marks inside the yellow circles.
I have 1 IDE drive attached as well and maybe later another IDE drive will be added.
What settings do I need in my BIOS? Are there drivers required to be installed in Windows XP?
Thanks for your help. This is driving my crazy!

In bios under Integrated Peripherals, On Chip ATA Operating Mode set
Native Mode
ATA Configuration - PATA only
SATA Keep enabled - yes
PATA Keep enabled - yes
PATA channel selection - both
This should let you boot from the SATA and see the PATA.

Opinion: MSI875P NEO-FIS2R is/was a :censored: board

I purchased my first and what will now be my last MSI motherboard in the MSI875P NEO-FIS2R. My original board crapped out for no good reason and was replaced under warranty, with the replacement board crapping out just over a week later - without overclocking or anything else. The box had a 520W PSU, ran 7 x HDDs, 1 x DVD, 1 x CD-R and 8 fans incl. (PSU fans). The 2nd board crapped out for no good reason when I placed the Prescott 3.4E CPU under load doing video rendering (the CPU and PSU are fine and dandy - running in another rig now).
Guess there'll be many here who disagree, but after many years of building and running my own systems using a range of other boards, this has most definitely been my worst experience. Time to go back to ABIT boards. MSI's support is so good I've yet to get a response (over a month later) as to what alternatives I have to get my data off my striped drives cofigured via the on-board Promise 20378 chipset.
Adios MSI, I'm tired of , the out -- your 875 boards and I've no reason to believe any of your later boards are any better.

Personally, I think these are fine boards--they're just a bit, well, demanding might be the word. They tend to confound the end-user who expects to just plug everything in and go. However, if you take the time to learn their ins and outs, they can really, really scream. Moreover, so long as one exercises the slightest bit of caution (and let me suggest that when it comes to me, the slightest bit is slight indeed), they can even be quite forgiving on a hardware level. Behold the fact that I have managed to not fry a single component on this board. I've also found that often the problem doesn't actually lie with the board, though it may appear so at first blush.
As regards tech support: well, I can't really comment here. I operate under the assumption that the tech support people will, should I call them, have drastically less idea what's going on than I do. I've found this to be true about 99% of the time over the last seven years or so. Moreover, if you were running RAID0 without a backup, well, I have a hard time seeing how that's anyone's fault other than your own. It's a commonly know fact that if a 0 array goes south in any way, your data is basically screwed. Ten seconds on google will tell you that.
I wish people would actually find out what they mean before they complain. There are certain things one can fault these boards for, but I've never seen any of them mentioned in a post such as this.

875P NEO FIS2R board

I've recently tried to purchase the 875P NEO FIS2R motherboard but when the board arrived it was the FISR version not the FIS2R version which I ordered. I promptly returned it to the supplier as the FISR is in my opinion a lower specification as it doesn't have the same Raid capability and is not what I ordered. However, the supplier is telling me that MSI no longer make the FIS2R board and the FISR he supplied is the model that MSI has replaced the FIS2R with. I find this difficult to believe and suspect the supplier is trying to rip me off. Can anyone shed any light on this? When I check the MSI website the FIS2R is still featured but I'm having great difficulty sourcing one.

I wouldn't buy this board... many people are having serious issues with it.
This is not true. You can't base your opinions on a board by what you read in a forum. Remember that the majority of people come to a forum because they have a problem. Sometimes it is the board, but as often as not it is because of something else. Most people posting are do it yourselfers and need a forum to learn how things go together and don't go together. Most shops assembling computers have the luxury of spare components for testing and lots of past experience.
MSI sell millions of boards annually. The forum doesn't get hundreds of thousands of new users, so I think it is more appropriate to say a few people have issues, not many.

Probs with k8t neo and radeon 9500 non pro

Hi!
I´m totaly new with amd and i got a msi k8t neo and a sempron 2800+ with 1gb memory and a saphire radeon 9500 non pro and the computer does not start with that graphiccard.The processor fan just spins up a bit then it dies. But with a gforce 5200 card the computer works fine. I have tryed the saphire card in my server with a P4 1,6ghz and on that motherboard it works just fine.
Im from sweden so my english is not the best ;-)

Quote from: qTj on 17-November-05, 20:25:05
Yes i have tryed all those things. But my card works perfectly in 2 diffrent computers. So i dont think that the vidccard is broken.. But what do i know...
Well you know that othergfx cards do work oin ur board, so I still say you RMA it, or swap if with another card that will work

"drulleförsäkringen"
translates like "fools insurance", apperently in Sweden U get a refund when u buy something and wreck it

Where's the "System Temp" probe? (K8T-Neo)

Where is the "system temp" probe located, and what does this measure? I've seen other posts asking this question and I can't see a definitive answer.
The reason I ask is this:
I've got a nice copper Zalman heatsink that keeps my cpu cool, around 30 idle and 40-45 under load. The "system temperature" is always hotter than the cpu, at least 40 and can get up to 50. I stick my hand in the case and the air is no where near that hot, so I figure its reading the temp of some chip on the board, ie the northbridge (ok I know its not really the nb, but lets just call it that.)
I stuck a 4cm fan on the stock passive nb heatsink and this had very little affect on the "system temp." So either that temp probe is not on the nb or the stock heatsink is just lame. Anyone got any ides?
Another question --- what does the V-Link DATA 2X bios setting do? I've read that enabling it greatly improves "system performance." But when I disable the SATA controller (as I have no SATA drives) the V-Link option becomes greyed-out, like the v-link only has to do with SATA. Does it affect anything if I'm not using SATA?
Scott

Hi
The Winbond chip at top of board above Dimms and Bios monitors the temp, if there is hot air coming from the HDD bays, as chip is right under end of drive as a rule, just where all the cables and things are most likely to interupt air flow. it can affect the temps. Its a good idea to direct air from a fan to that point.
Cheers
