Will be building with an MSI z87-g65 and 4770K cpu and Windows 7 Pro

I will be building a system with an MSI z87-g65 and 4770K cpu and using either an MSI 460GTX or an MSI N6970 HD (both never used VGAs).
I read this topic and how it was solved:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=169759.msg1241119#msg1241119
I wonder if using the "onboard" GPU in the 4770K would be simpler to load Windows 7? I did a search and didn't find posts relating to this.

The listed cards will work fine. The integrated gpu won't work better or make it easier for Win7. Just don't enable Win8 features in UEFI.

Will iTunes work with an old IBM Thinkpad and Windows 2000?

I am trying to set up my daughter's old ThinkPad 380XD so she can use it with her new iPod Nano. I have loaded Windows 2000 SP 4, with the latest MS updates. I have tried the iTunes setup that came on the CD with the iPod as well as downloading iTunes from the Apple website.
I have been able to get both iTunes and QuickTime installed and can launch QuickTime ok. When I try to launch iTunes, I get a message that says "iTunes.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being created." When I check the event log, I do not find any entries that match the time or description of the iTunes message.
I have looked at previous posts for this problem and do not see a clear solution except to disable firewalls or anti virus programs. I don't have either operating but I do see that I only have 32Meg of RAM and iTunes would like 128Meg. Is this the cause of the problem and would it affect iTunes and not QuickTime? If RAM is the problem, is there any solution other than increasing the physical RAM?
Thanks in advance.
Windows 2000

Sorry, no. You would have to have 2000 at least to be compatible.
Also, iTunes will not work without QT, as QT is the playback software used by iTunes.

Audio problems with SBLive! 5.1 and Windows XP Pro,

I just reinstalled Windows XP Pro from a slipstreamed CD with SP2 on it. (That means I can't just remove SP2 without reinstalling Windows.) Now, when I play a game the audio skips and stutters for the first 5-0 min of gameplay. The skipping and stuttering goes away eventually, but its REALLY annoying. This is the only hardware problem I've had with SP2, and I would like to know if there is a patch in the planning to fix all the SP2 Sound Blaster problems, or do we all have to find our own work around for these things.
If anyone has a solution for this please let me know. I've already installed the UniDriver thing, and it still acts up. I've tried removing and reinstalling everything, cleaning out my registry, and rebooting. Defragging my HD did not work either. Nothing seems to work.
CPU= AMD Athlon XP 2600+
RAM=704Mb
Video=GeForce 4 MX440 AGP 28DDR
Please help soon.

I think I may have solved my problem. I recently installed Full Spectrum Warrior. I installed it to a different dri've than all of my other games. Lo and behold, no audio problems. After some further investigation, I believe that the audio problem lies in an old hard disk dri've that is in the beginning stages of failure. After I actually thought about it, my load times from this hard disk have been taking forever, but Full Spectrum Warrior loads very quickly. The dri've is going to die! But I guess it's ok, the dri've is almost 0 years old, and this is the 3rd computer its been in.
Thanks for your help,
Josh

MSI Z87 G65 Killer E2200 Ethernet Problems

I'm currently having a lot of trouble with the Killer Ethernet system while trying to set up my internet. I built my computer with an MSI Z87 G65 motherboard that has "Killer Embeded Ethernet E2200" and downloaded the drivers for it. I also have a Rosewill WiFi adapter in order to pick up wireless internet.
Now my problem is this: My computer will always pick up a wireless connection, but the wired connection will only work once I install the drivers. After any type of reset or reboot, the computer doesn't pick up the wireless connection anymore. Here's the situation in a nutshell:
All the drivers have been updated to the current version for Windows 8
The connection HAS worked in the past, but simultaneously seems to just not show itself
The Wired connection WON'T be shown in the Network and Sharing Options of Windows if the computer doesn't recognize it being plugged in (when it really is)
Disabling Wireless settings DOES NOT show the wireless connection (I've been able to connect to both Wired and Wireless before)
The Wired connection seemed to be working for a few days until a Windows 8 update seemed to raise the problem again.
And that's about it. Uninstalling and Reinstalling the drivers has worked in the past, but then there comes a time where Windows just "decides" that it doesn't want to recognize the connection anymore. I'm wondering if there is a more permanent fix or a way that I can see the wired connection in another way to connect directly to it. Thanks for your help!

Killer network is 'killed' under windows 8, otherwise, borked!
There are a few threads about it, mine being here:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=172930.0
Gave up, and going to pick up a cheap network card today, one that will just work.
I actually read through that same thread when I was still searching for answers. It's a shame that we have to resort to getting a new network card. That's a huge disappointment. I'm going to try and go to Killer's chat support and figure it out this morning, but I probably will end up doing the same. Thanks for your reply!

MSI Z87-G65 adding PCIe cards, how will the GPU PCIe remain?

Hi,
I'm about to to buy a MSI Z87-G65, but currently having issues with Realtek 1150, while its really much better than past sound cards, i have issues with drivers, since MSI also run the same sound card, i want to run a HT | OMEGA eClaro 7.1 Channels 24-bit 192KHz PCI Express x1 Interface Sound Card and im also not too keen of the choice of MSI on the network card, i had issues on my GT70 on my lan and wifi, that has been worked out but i hate the Killer software/panel, this PC will also transfer a lot on gigabit so don't want to deal with poor performance, so im planning on a good trusty Intel EXPI9301CT Desktop Adapter Gigabit CT 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI-Express 1 x RJ45.
I know when you run SLI on PCIe 16x, the first goes to 8x and the second to 8x, when 3sli is ran it goes 8x4x4, but im using the layout like the following, wondering what speed will the first 16x PCIe slot will run with the configuration below, 16x or 8x or 4x?

You can't run nVidia graphics at 8x 4X 4X. Tri-SLI is not possible. Crossfire is though. Download the pdf English manual at an MSI Website. It gives all the information of the lane assignments.
To answer the question, if other PCI-E 16X33 slots are used other than the primary for graphics, the primary will indeed drop to 8X.

MSI Z87-G65 Gaming BIOS causing RAM problem?

Hey
I updated my bios something like week ago from 1.7 to 1.8 and seems like it is causing ram to behave oddly. I installed the BIOS via live update 5 and flashed the computer via USB. Seems like the ram usage climbs to 100% at span of few hours, usually something like 2-4h. Also my SSD usage also is very high at the same time, around 50-100% changing rapidly. Haven't had the problem at earlier bios versions. Also task manager won't show any specific process that is using all that RAM/disc. Kinda annoying that can't use computer longer that that because it gets so laggy :(. I'll include some screenshots from task manager.
Thank you!

Quote from: Sea Dog on 31-December-13, 04:01:00
After the flash, was a PSU power cord removed, battery removed CMOS clear performed? Also, was the ME driver re-installed with the latest available? If none of that helps, then I would suggest to contact MSI Technical about the problems encountered with the new UEFI/BIOS revision. A reflash can be accomplished as well back to a version that was working. There is no real need to keep updating a UEFI/BIOS if all works without any problems with the exception of a specific improvement of a particular function that may have been less than optimal.
No I didn't, I'll try it that way and check out if it works. Tough ME driver is a latest but I didn't re-install it.
Thanks for response!

Msi 790GX-G65 and "EB" Ram question....

Hiya All,
Q: could it be that "OCZ DDR3 ram p3 1600 EB 2GK" won't work with a MSI 790GX-G65 mobo because of the "EB" (enhancend Bandwidth) ? ? ?
can't find anything on EB in the manual or on the net concerning the MSI 790GX-G65 mobo
System freezes randomly, sometimes during start up sometimes after an hour.
all temps are okay and nothing is OC-ed.
got ati 4870 gfx card.
550 W power suply.
cpu: AMD phenom2 x3 720 black edition
thanks to any one willing to look into this matter
Bassman404
p.s. asking this for a friend so hard to give more info than this atm

thanks for your quick reply
The PSU is a HKC USP5550
and forgot to mention that the ram is running on 1333 MHz not 1600MHz.(not trying to run it higher than 1333 MHz atm)
i'm wondering if the "enhancend bandwidth" could be the cause of the system freezing?
or in other words do i have the wrong RAM?

Can't get my epson sx535wd to work. my epson will get contact with my router (sitcom wl306) and my mac is on wifi, but they can't connect. epson can't find the computer and my report says: there are conflicting channels on my router or entry point. help

OK, let's try these................
1 - Boot up from your install DVD and run "Repair Disk" from the Utility menu. When done, restart back to your desktop, repair permissions and restart your computer. Re-connect your printer.
2 - Download & install the Gimp drivers. Make sure the one you install is compatible w/your OS-Gutenprint 5.2.8-pre1. Repair permissions, restart your computer & re-connect your printer when done.
The Epson model I have, in order to get it to print wirelessly, I had to install a Gimp driver.
3 - Check out the following KB Articles:
Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Connecting to a network printer
Epson Printer Drivers v2.10 OS X
Adding a printer to your printer list in Mac OS X
Mac OS X 10.4 Help: The printer I'm adding says "Driver not installed"
======================
If still unsuccessful after trying all of the above, the problem could be your iBook or human error. You can either call Epson & ask to speak with a Mac savy supervisor or return the printer & find another that is compatible w/your current OS.

Are there any Canon all-in-one printers compatible with Yosemite v.10.10 and Windows 7?

My current Canon Pixma MX850 printer just died. I'm looking for an All-in-One, preferably Canon, printer that is compatible with Yosemite version 10.10 and Windows 7. I have spent this weekend researching with no matches. They all cover v.10.9 but nothing higher. I'm desperate for a replacement for our business. I was just about to order the Canon Pixma MX922 when I caught the specs.
I'm needing the following functions:
ADF with 2 sided ADF scanning/printing
Ethernet
Wi-Fi certificate
Wireless
Auto 2 sided printing
AirPrint and (google) iCloud print would be an add-on but not necessary.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

The MX922 (known as the MX926 in Australia) is supported by 10.10 and Windows 7. Whatever site you were looking at may not have updated their details. Here is a link from the Canon Australia web site showing the drivers and applications for this model for 10.10.

Question about MSI Z87 boards and NVMe PCI-E SSDs

With the release of the Intel SSD 750 PCI-E SSD and more NVMe SSDs no doubt to follow, will the older motherboards like the Z87 series get updates so that they can boot with NVMe SSDs?
All of the Z97 and X99 boards already have compatibility:
http://www.msi.com/news/1949.html
What about older chipsets like Z87, Z77? Z87 in particular is very similar to Z97, so I'd imagine it'd be the most likely candidate.

Yeah I did.
Quote from: jkinneberg on 13-May-15, 07:04:11
Did anyone get an answer from MSI.
MSI is there going to be a BIOS release to support the ability to boot off of nvme PCIe cards for the M87 boards?
MSI Tech. 05/14/2015 We unfortunately do not have any information regarding any future support for these series boards and supporting NVMe, you , you may continue to visit our news section for updates as they become available. http://us.msi.com/news/
I think is possible though - that and it's likely these boards may support Broadwell as well.

Msi 890fxa-g65 and two radeon 6950 video cards

Hi,
So far I have the one radeon 6950 with the MSI msi 890fxa-g65 motherboard. I was thinking of getting another 6950 down the road and was wondering if anyone was able to fit two 6950 video cards on a msi 890fxa-g65 motherboard.
It seems a bit tight. Also I currently have an Ultra brand 750W PSU. Is that enough?
Thanks.
Mike

Quote from: zerohedge101 on 27-March-11, 22:58:58
Thank for the response. The main impedance is on the motherboard connections for the front panel of the computer case. These pins are located at the bottom of the motherboard where the 6950 video card goes. The pin connections and the wire stick out quite a bit and the video card might crush them a little.
Is there some sort of adapter for those pin connections to make them go on a 90 degree instead of straight out. This is the only impedance to get that video card in really. The case is big enough even though its only a mid -tower.
Thanks for any help.
Yes, those are you HDD, power and stand-by switch connectors I believe. Yes, I have seen 90* adapters but I don't remember where. It might come with the case attachments or a Mobo I put together about a year ago. In any case, take your existing card and "gentaly" place it into that bottom slot without the pins inserted (mark or draw a little graph as to where those pins go). See if you still have a little bit of room for your connectors. Also, what kind of connectors are we talking here? USB external pins are here to. If you can live with just the MoBo USB ports, then forget the external USB connection then. That way, simply put that card in and GO! Try it out.
