Wind Top AE2220 Hi-Fi problem

Hi all,
I was given a Wind Top AE2220 Hi-Fi from a friend of mine as it wasnt working, he kept the ram and the HDD and i have now put some ram and another HDD in it but when I turn it on I hear the fans whir into life and the blue led comes on at the power switch but then all it does is come up with a whitish screen for about 3 seconds and then goes off but i can still hear the fans whirring and the led remains lit. it does not go to the bios screen or anything. Does anyone know what the solution to getting this running could be?
Thanks in advance

Well ive had the back off of it and I cant find anything that looks like a reset button. it just looks like any other computer inside.
Thanks alot for all your help though, any other ideas, please let me know 
It might not be a button. Could just be the usual 3 pins with a jumper over 2 of the pins.

Will the fact that I have opened it up and removed the warranty sticker render the warranty void? 
Don't think it will unless you break something (visible damage).

    You would have to do your own new fresh Windows install, with a borrowed Windows disc.

  • Monitor keeps turning off on Wind-Top AE2220

    Hi, I've a Wind-Top All-in-One AE2220, starting this morning I keep getting a black screen when I turn on the computer.
    Pressing the LCD on/off at the bottom right corner will occasionally (2 quick presses seems to do it) get the screen to turn on for a brief second, and from that I can see Windows have started completely normally.
    What might be the cause of this and is there anyway to fix it?
    I've also tried plugging in an external monitor to use temporarily, but the monitor says there was no signal, is there anything I need to press to switch the display to the external monitor?

    I have the very similar AE2020 model. The behaviour you are seeing is bad and I suggest exercising your MSI warranty. I had a fairly good experience doing that with mine a few months ago, though my reason was different. Like mine, your MSI AIO video connectors are for input only, not output. It's in your manual, though you have to look hard for the reference.
    Bye.     

  • Taking apart a Wind Top AE2220

    Does anyone know how to take one of these apart? I've never messed with an all in-one pc before, but my fan is running more than normal and I'm pretty sure it could use a good blowing.
    Just don't go taking that wrong you pervs. 

    Guess this should be moved to all in-one pcs. my bad!

  • Wind Top AE2020 usb issue

    Hi
    I'm using a number of these at work connected to a usb device. The usb device has it's own driver and this works perfectly connected to any port on any of our other computers (different models, brands and OSs). Our problem is that the AE2020s often freeze completely when we connect the usb device.
    When they do work I've noticed that it can take several seconds before the computer registers that the device has been plugged in or out (going by the sound at least).
    While I'm generally ok with computers this is a bit outside my field. I was thinking about updating the Mobo chipset drivers, but I'd love to hear if anyone is familiar with this problem first. Any help would be greatly appreciated
    The computers in question are:
    MSI Wind Top AE2020
    Intel Pentium Dual Core T4500
    320 GB HDD
    3gb ram
    Win7
    BIOS v. 02.67
    Please let me know if I've left out anything and I'll get the info

    The AE2020 uses an nVidia ION chip set and not the usual Intel. That was one of the reasons I bought one. However, because it's not the mainstream Intel, Microsoft and MSI do not update the chip set drivers that often. I suggest going to the nVidia web site and downloading their most recent driver for this chip set. You might want to check Device Manager for the exact model name or use the nVidia automated update facility on their web site.
    I have had only good experiences with USB devices on my AE2020. These would be standard devices like a wireless keyboard dongle, a BlueTooth mini-card mounted internally, a slide film scanner and an assortment of USB Flash drives and hard drives. It also sounds that this USB device you speak of is not something I might get at Best Buy. Is the driver for that device designed for Windows 7? You've said it works well with other systems. Are any of these running Windows 7?
    Bye.

  • Wind Top AE2211G: panel technology and hard drive replacement?

    I'm thinking of buying the Wind Top AE2211G, but I can't find any information about the following two things that are important to me:
    What panel technology is used for the monitor? TN, MVA, IPS?
    Is the hard drive easily replaceable by myself in case it dies? Can the case be opened easily without losing the warranty?

    Well you probably haven't noticed then that this is a 'User-to-User' forum, run by users for the benefit of other users, on behalf of MSI. Although there are a couple of MSI employees who are members and occasionally post here, none of the forum admin or moderator team work for MSI.

  • Msi wind top 1900 easy viewwer

    Where is this file?  I've searched the hard drive, no luck.  There is an instruction manual that came with the computer, but no program that I can find.
    Never mind - found it.  Warning guys, it does not install automatically with the rest of the software.  I'm using AE1900 wind top with vista basic, 2G and 260G HD.  Pretty nice machine, but seems very slow.  Thanks for your patience with a newby

    MSI Easy Viewer did not load on my system either. I finally found it on the CD that comes with the unit and which also includes drivers. The system with Vista works fine. I did follow some of the suggestions found in an on-line article (possibly PC Mag) which discussed 12 things to turn off in Vista to improve performance. I also set power setting to maximize performance, used Advanced System Care Pro to tune/optimize performance and free up available RAM, and inserted a ReadyBoost flash drive into one of the USB ports (definitely helps reduce boot-up times). On-line forums/articles also indicate that performance can be improved further using Windows 7 RC, although I have not yet done so.

  • MSI Wind Top AG2712 i7-3630QM 1TB 128GB SSD 12GB W8

    Hello everybody!
    I'm from Poland and my English isn't very well.
    I have a question:  I have MSI Wind Top AG2712 i7-3630QM 1TB 128GB SSD 12GB W8   and I have gaphic card GTX 670MX. Would i have a NVIDIA  GTX 970M on thic AiO PC?  Please write back!
    Good be!

    Hi,
    With AiO I guess it's similar to notebooks: it might work, but there are few factors that might have to be changed. For example you would most likely have to modify heatsink for the GPU. Also custom BIOS might also be needed.
    As long as these can have their GPUs removed/swapped around. So even if you buy 970M, make sure you will be able to return it in case it don't work.
    I would ask MSI as they have all the details about each AiO version and graphics cards, so they should be able to answer this straight away, simple as "Yes or No", as currently on the forum we can only guess whether it will work or not.

  • MSI Wind Top AE2410 GPU Error ?

    Hi there
    I recently received a MSI MS-AE321 Wind Top All in one PC. Unfortunately I have this issue when the its powered on, everything is fuzzy 
    I have opened it up and had a look around for fault, all I can think of is the GPU thats now dead  R.I.P
    Is there by any chance I can just replace the GPU ? I'm a IT guy, but never worked on these machines before.
    I'd appreciate any help on this, as I wish to have this machine running ASAP   

    Quote
    When the machine starts up, its pixel blocks with cyan, yellow and pink buzzing all over the screen.
    Could be just a connector or cable issue as well.

    Hmmmmmm Board replacement you say ? Is this machine EOL ? - End of Life ? I actually wish to purchase a new board with a external slot for another GPU.]Hmmmmmm Board replacement you say ? Is this machine EOL ? - End of Life ? I actually wish to purchase a new board with a external slot for another GPU.
    Which All-in-one is it as MS-AE321 is just the board? Actually if the machine has a integrated GPU there is no such possibility like replacing it with another board with MXM compatibility.

    The driver here:

    With this info:
    Ralink Wireless Lan Driver

    Update Date   2010-10-06
    is partially wrong. version is OK but driver itself is dated back to Feb 2010.
    Why telling this? Cuz Wind Top can not connect neither via LAN nor WLAN! Thank god the day came to end...
    Date "2010-10-06" is the one when this driver is added at msi web.
    not the driver date itself

  • TV card problems for Wind Top AE2400

    I have a new AE2400 that seems to be working fine apart from...
    I have purchased and installed the Mini DVB-T tuner card (MSI  Model A336)
    Under Win7 MCE (Ver 6.1.7601.17514) the Tuner Card is unable to locate any Channels.
    I have updated the drivers.
    I have verified that a signal is present from the antenna socket
    Device Manager reports the card as " AVerMedia A336 MiniCard Hybrid DVB-T (Driver Version 10.2.64.48)"
    Other bits
    PAL
    Region Australia
    Antenna
    Any suggestions on how I can get it working ?

    Update...
    Have removed the card and uninstalled drivers and reinstalled everything - no change
    Tried installing AVerMedia mediacentre software (V 1.7.9) but they don't recognise the tuner...
    Have contacted AVerMedia (they produce the A336 card for vendors like MSI) - and have referred me back to MSI for a solution.
    Fingers crossed

  • I rec'd yellowish admail, I can't delete it, I can send but not receive email. "Cannot Get Mail,connection to server failed". This is on Wi Fi from my lap top which has no problems?

    The adware comes in on my sub account (almost hourly), it is always on top of my Inbox. It's funny I can send and receive from my sub account, just not my main account.
    I am able to get Safari. I see one previous suggestion to delete account, but I'm afraid I would then lose my email address. I tried on another wi fi and still had the same problems. I also saw it may be a password problem, but if that is so how do I get Safari? I also rebooted. Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    If you delete your mail account from your iPad you won't lose your address. I've deleted and re-added my mail account several times.
    It'd be the same as.....I have a favorites list for a website. I can delete that favorites list, but the website is still out there. I just need to retype the address. Same thing with the mail.
    The worst that'll happen is that you'll have to redownload your mail onto your iPad.
    Who is your mail provider? Are you accessing it via their app (for example the yahoo app) or are you accessing it via safari or via the iPad's mail app?

  • Yellow Bar at top of track, and problems...

    I am trying to edit a file in garage band. I clicked on an icon, a circle with an arrow in it, and now there are two problems I have not been able to figure out:
    -the track only plays a section with a yellow bar above it, in a loop.
    -the track no longer displays the white arrow at the top with the vertical line, within the window it is playing in. It disappears and I have no way to know where on the track it is.
    -the track display above and the editing display below, are no longer synchronized. The red vertical line disappears and the bottom editing display just sits there. Now I have no way to edit the track, to know where the red line is and find the sections I want to edit.
    Any advice?
