X58 PRO BIOS only shows 4 of 6gb ram but Mermory-Z shows all of them installed.

What is up with this board? I returned the first board and ram for this same thing. I bought 6 1gb PC-1066 chips and can only get 4gb no matter how i configure or arrange the chips. Memory-Z shows that all of the chips are the same model and speeds serials are 1 off each other so they are the same run of chips. Why is Memory-Z showing 6 1gb chips but the bios and windows say 4gb?
P.S. They are Micron chips.
Any help appreciated.

You can tell by there typing that english is not one of there main languages but the say their busy working on a solution to my problem so i'm happy so far. I'll update once i get an answer in case others are having this problem also which i'm sure there are.
Since there aren't really any other threads about it, your statement is doubtful.
Have you tried not installing anything into the second channel, and then the same for the third?

X58 Pro BIOS Crash during Boot

Hi All,
I have recently assembled a system with X58 Pro board and Core i7 920. It was working fine for 3 months except that it started having BIOS crashes since last night. The issue is that the mainbaord lights would be on without the POST screen and within few seconds the system resets automatically. The same procedure happens for about 4-6 cycles and on the 7th cycle i get a message on screen saying the previous overclocking has failed and the BIOS is reset to default settings. Post then the system boots up normal and works just fine. But once the system is shut down and when the system is switched on(cold boot) I get the same problem. I have also noticed that a month back the CPU clock had jumped from default 2.66 to 2.67 automatically without any overclocking and just couple of weeks after that the clock rose up to 2.87. It has remained like that until the BIOS crash issue. All these happened without any manual overclocking. I was wondering how can this happen automatically unless the clock speeds are adjusted manually. That was quiet strange though. Neways after this issue(BIOS Crash) popped up the clock speed is back to 2.67 than the default 2.66. Weird again. The BIOS version is the default one(V7.0) that was shipped with the mainboard. I tried to M-Flash the BIOS to V7.3(after reading couple of postings from the forum) but without success. The same problem still persists. I have done the following things after going through the forums regarding the issue.
1. Cleared CMOS using the clear CMOS button(With power chord unplugged)
2. Tried M-Flashing to V7.3 (Not sure whether the BIOS was updated during the process)
I kindly request all of you so provide some solutions so as to get my system back to normalcy. Your worthwhile suggestions would be really appreciated. The system config is mentioned below
Core i7 920 @ 2.66 GHz
MSI X 58 Pro - BIOS Version 7.0
Corsair 6 GB(3 x 2 Gigs) DDR3 @ 1066 MHz (installed on the black slots currently)
EVGA GeForce GTX 295 1.7 GB GDDR3
Tagan 1100 W PSU
2 x 1 TB Seagate Sata HDD @ 7200 RPM w 32 MB cache
Sony Optiarc DVD-RW Drive
Windows XP 64Bit SP2
Looking forward for some positive solutions

Hey NovJoe,
Thanks a lot for your reply. I have done as per your suggestion and the system works fine now. Pretty interesting though. During the individual RAM tests i did not face any BIOS crashes and i thought the MOBO DIMM SLOTS would be faulty. So i installed the second RAM strip on the second slot worked fine and finally the third one and works fine too. I am really wondering wht had happened in the first place. Was that due to any dirt or dust in the memory and DIMM contacts? Well neways i am kinda relieved now. But i wanna make sure that everything works fine. What types of tests do you suggest to make sure that the system is working almost fine??
Thanks a lots
Regards

When saving my illustrator file to a pdf it doesnt show all the artwork ie boxes are hidden in the pdf or only showing part of them. How can I fix this?

when saving my illustrator file to a pdf it doesnt show all the artwork ie boxes are hidden in the pdf or only showing part of them. Even some text is hidden. I have flattened the artwork so everything is in one layer. How can I fix this?

Hi John
I have indicated on the attached jpeg where the problem is, basically a line of text is missing at the top and part of the feeding diagram is missing. I created the artwork in different layer and then flattened. All text has been converted to outlines, however the areas being affected have no transparency, I have used solid fills or no fills. I get the same result when I export the file as a jpeg. Hope you can help.

My photo stream shows all my pictures of 200 on my iPhone but my iPad is only showing 53 of them. How do I make my iPad show everything?

I have over 200 photos on my iPhone photo stream but my iPad 2 only shows 53 of them.

Photo stream photos appear after you enable the feature on your devices so any photos that were already on the phone when you turned on Photo Stream on the iPad, will not appear. Only photos that you take on the phone moving forward will appear on the iPad.

Building new system, MSI X58 Pro-E, i7 920, GTX 295, 6gb, Thermalright e-120

Hello, I was hoping for some advice on this rig, to overclock or not, etc; Im a bug gamer, so its really about gaming to the max 1st,
Heres the brand new parts;
MSI X58 Pro-E (In the box, just arrived, do not know bios yet)
i7 920
Patriot Extreme Viper PVT36G1600ELK 6GB DDR3 9-9-9-24
eVGA GTX295 1792mb CO-OP edition
Thermalright extreme e-120 cpu cooler (Jesus that thing is huge)
Im going to re-use this stuff:
2x500gb seagate HDD sata raid 0 for performance
Antec 900 case Lots of fans...nice
DVD RW
Corsair TX750W Says 60A on a single +12v rail (I think its good, only @ a year or so old)
SB X-FI Fatality gamer sound card
So, basically should I look to OC this setup a bit? maybe to like 3 GHz or so? If so, whats the "safest" method to OC? I have an excellent cpu cooler and a case that has a ton of fans in it so hopefully I should be good for cooling.
Do I just OC the CPU? Will the memory run at its top speeds with this chip? or do I need to do something for the memory also, I recally for some reason on my current PC with a 780i SLI evga mobo I had to set the ram timins manually, they were never picked up properly on "auto", will I have that also on the MSI board?
I hope Ive provided enough information to get started.
Thank you for any help!
Oh, I plan to build this baby the following weekend as I am working the next 2 weeks straight...meh

Yes, why not?
Do not be aiming for 3 GHz, you can run that on stock voltage. 4 GHz is more within the grasp of the TRUE 120.

There's only one way to overclock - overclock... There is no safe way of doing it...

The only way you can overclock a CPU without overclocking anything else is with an extreme edition CPU. (The i7 965, for example.) It's overclocked by raising the CPU multiplier, not the baseclock frequency.
With regular CPUs, you overclock the baseclock, which overclocks the CPU core, CPU uncore, memory, and QPI frequency.

Extremely doubtful.
I hope I've answered your questions. I can be more thorough if you wish to know more. Of course, Google can tell you more than I ever could.

IPhoto in MacBook Pro 2013 only shows "place holders," but no photos, after data transfer from Macbook Air 32011

I am trying to transfer data from my MacBook Air 2011 to a "new" MacBook Pro 2013. Both are running Yosemite 10.10.2. Since Migration Assistant WOULD NOT WORK (the MacBook Air couldn't "see" the MacBook Pro), using my WiFi network, I transferred the necessary data to a 500GB drive and THEN to the MacBook Pro. However, two programs didn't transfer well - or at all! iTunes only transferred the Music (Media?) files, but not iTunes U, Podcasts, Audiobooks, etc. I have had to drill down into the storage files, retrieve the non-transferred files and add them, one by one - a most laborious task. But, this is nothing compared to the problem with iPhoto (9.6), which shows only 6 events and 4 Faces transferred, with the rest only place holders (black boxes and grey dotted squares) in all the folders in my iPhoto.
I "Showed Package Contents," and found the missing files - of which there are many! - and started adding them, again, one by one.
Can anyone tell me what happened to my iPhoto (Yosemite 10.10.2)? It's fine on my MacBook Air, but simply WON'T TRANSFER to my MacBook Pro?
PLEASE - someone tell me how to CORRECTLY transfer my iPhoto files and/or HOW TO MAKE THE MACBOOK AIR "SEE" THE MACBOOK PRO in Migration Assistant?

Hello Mary,
Sorry to hear that you are having issues with moving your data over to your new Mac. There are a few alternatives that you can do to migrate that data if you are not seeing it in Migration Assistant. The first is make a Time Machine back up to that 500 Gb external hard drive and then use that in Migration Assistant to copy the entire data over. If you do that you will want to remove any data that you have on your MacBook Pro after the transfer completes as it will create another user with the data from the MacBook Air. Another option is to use a Thunderbolt Cable that you can purchase online if you want and use the option from another disk to copy that over. Take a look at the articles below for more details.

X58 Pro BIOS update from 7.3 to 8.x

Hi.
I've thought of updating my the bios of my X58 PRO but I've hesitated as I'm not sure if the new 8.x bios versions are meant for my mb. 8.e is the latest I think.
I was wondering if anyone on the forum had any experience on the subject? I saw one old thread with someone thinking the same thing but wasn't quite sure how it worked out for him.

Well atm I'm having problems with my DVD-drive giving me DMA errors whenever I'm trying to burn a DVD. I've looked into the matter and nothing seems to be helping so I thought of updating the BIOS.
Even though a BIOS update might not help with my current problem, I'm still interested to know whether it is possible to update BIOS from 7.3 to 8.e.
I read from somewhere that this was not adviced because 8.x versions are meant for X58 PRO SLI
MSI automatic updating also didn't even suggest any updates for my BIOS. I know not to flash from MSI LiveUpdate, I just ran it to check for updates.

I can see only the last received fax in my PC and not all of them using a Officejet Pro 8600 Plus

I create a file in my desktop where received faxes can be saved. Indeed, i can see the received fax, but if i receive one more, it replace the previous one. Thus, i can see only the last received fax. How can i see all them and not replace one another?
This question was solved.

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @pasma ,
I read about the issues you are having with saving your faxes on your desktop. I noticed you mentioned you had created a file. I would suggest creating a folder instead and that should help with the saving problem!
Let me know how that goes for you, have a great Wednesday

Adobe Color Themes Panel in PS CC. Does it show all your themes?

For some reason, my Color themes Panel in PS CC2014 does only show a certain amount of colour themes, and it is not resizable any further. There is also no scrolling available. Only half of my themes show up that way. I can bump them to my favourites and when synced again they show up in the favourite section, so they are synced … Anyone out there found a way to access all your themes from within the Panel/MyThemes?
thx,
J

HT201401 My iPhone 4 does not ring only vibrates. I have restored but so luck. All the settings are okay. Ringtones can be heard through the speaker during selection. Please help. Thanks.

My iPhone 4 does not ring only vibrates. I have restored but no luck. Ringtones can be heard through speaker during selection. Ring volume is also set at maximum.

I had the same problem. I took the phone to the local tech shop and they replaced a fried headphone flex cable. Cost me $70.

X58 Pro BIOS 7.3

MSI tech support sent me BIOS 7.3 version for the MSI Pro X58. Doing the upgrade from 7.1 to 7.3 will kill the RAID config. Seems like JBOD is missing as an RAID option in 7.3. In 7.1 I had a single drive JBOD as my boot drive and 5x500GB drives in RAID-0. The RAID 0 drive was not accessible under 7.3 and I had to recreate and restore. the JOB drive was accessible as a non-RAID Drive.

I just updated mine from 7.1 to 7.3. No proble like that. Once the bios is updated, I did load optimized, then do RAID mode. I have a disk set up as boot disk, and two drives as RAID 0. Works.

MOVED: Core i7 920 Underclocked?? MSI x58 PRO BIOS v. 8.5 (SLI enabled)

It seems that my 920 wont come from being underclocked to the frequency I have it set for. I have the MSI-OC genie set for 3.6GHz (18x200MHz) and that's what the bios says, but as soon as I boot into Windows 7, my CPU is underclocked.
Go into the BIOS, set 180 baseclock, +0.05 CPU Vcore and be done with it.

Core i7 920 Underclocked?? MSI x58 PRO BIOS v. 8.5 (SLI enabled)

Hey guys, I'm having a bit of trouble.
It seems that my 920 wont come from being underclocked to the frequency I have it set for. I have the MSI-OC genie set for 3.6GHz (18x200MHz) and that's what the bios says, but as soon as I boot into Windows 7, my CPU is underclocked.
Now I know of the 'idle' state that core i7s go into if they aren't being used, but I can't seem to get it to go higher than 2.4GHz (18x133MHz). I'm running Prime95 to try to push it up to the 3.6GHz it's supposed to be at. No luck, so I even tried Prime95 with playing Supreme Commander and STILL nothing. Now Supreme Commander is an extremely CPU intensive game that works with thousands of AI units.
Can anyone help me figure out whats up?
