X58 pro i7 pci express 2.0 issue with sata controller

hello
i installed rosewill rc-225 (marvell controller) pci express 2.0 x1 card. my crucial m4 ssd maxes out at 271MB/s
it is installed in the x16 slot. i tried gen 1 x1 slot i was getting pathetic 130MB/s what is going... on new egg people with this drive and the controller are getting more than 400MB/s
btw i overclocked pci express and it improved the speed i dont get it what is going on...

Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit, Video card is EVGA GTX295, Marvell 91xx Sata 6G Controller Driver is 1.0.0.1034.
Oh wow that is crazy.
So there are only 2 explanations left since I only have GTX260.
1. I have some fluke Rev 0 motherboard.
2. Marvell chip doesn't like Crucial SSDs. Which I did hear kind of on Crucial forum. (I am thinking this).
To finally conclude it is Crucial SSD, can you take me which revision/model of motherboard you have? I think i seen it on a corner of the motherboard printed. Or in the bios.
I'll get mine from the BIOS tonight.
Also I wonder if overclocking the CPU increase the speed.... I asked brasstech if he overclocked... I hope he did, that would explain things.

    if you disable gen3 in bios setup, does the it works fine when its installed in the pci-e 3.0 port?

    It says V10.3, 3/28/2013.  I'll have to flash and get back to you afterwards.  System ran about 2 hours at idle, I looked at it, rebooted it to get into BIOS, rebooted again to get the revision confirmed on POST, and then I shut it down.  After the fan...

  • What is the BEST cable connection from Canopus ADVC 300 to Black Magic Intensity Pro HDMI PCI Express Capture Card?

    I must connect an ADVC 300 to a Black Magic Intensity Pro HDMI PCI Express Capture Card.   For best quality, which cable should I use?
    On the ADVC 300 there are outputs of firewire, S-VHS and RCA.
    On BMPro it's a little confusing. On the breakout cable there are connectors that say:
    -5 B-Y OUT
    -4 Y OUT
    -3-R-Y OUT
    -7-R-Y IN
    -8-Y IN
    -9 B-Y IN
    -15 AUDIO IN RIGHT
    -10 AES/EBU OUT
    -12 AUDIO LEFT OUT
    -14 AUDIO LEFT OUT
    -13 AUDIO RIGHT OUT
    With the BMPro, there is also a separate, shorter cable.  On one end it looks like S-VHS and on the other there are two connectors, one black and one blue.
    On the actual BMPro Express card strip instead of using the breakout cable, there is HDMI IN (and HDMI OUT). 
    How should I connect this?  Is there an adapter cable of FIREWIRE TO HDMI? 
    Any help is much appreciated. 

    Well, when I researched how best to digitize VHS (into Final Cut Pro 7), I learned two of the best devices to use are BMPro and Canopus ADVC 300.  I’m using the ADVC 300 for the built-in time base corrector.  I definitely want to use that to stabilize the video.  I also read how well BMPro improves image quality.  So, I thought to use the two together must produce outstanding quality (well, as good as VHS can be). 
    Perhaps I got confused into thinking I can use both.  But the BMPro appears to have an S-VHS adapter. 
    I guess I’m wondering what is better quality: 
    Run the firewire from the Canopus ADVC 300 converter directly into the firewire port on the Mac Pro
    Or, run an S-VHS cable from the Canopus ADVC 300 into the BMPro Capture card
    (I should mention that I have purchased all these items and already have the BMPro Card installed so at this point it’s not a cost issue, but rather an issue of simply which works best?)

  • MSI x58 ProE and Corsair 12GB (3x4GB) RAM Issues

    Greetings!
    New poster here with a question that I cannot seem to find an answer to anywhere. I've looked over the forums but have had no luck figuring it out. My goal is to identify the culprit and replace the appropriate parts.
    I built this computer in 2009 with the intention of doing OpenCL/CUDA computing and handle all my multimedia. At the time, 6GB DDR3 RAM (3x2GB) was about all I could afford. The machine works great, but lately, attempting to do some video and image processing has been hitting limits on my available RAM. I also want to run a linux VM or two. I thought I would order the Corsair 3x4GB DDR3 kit from NewEgg and not have any problems upgrading. I didn't have any plans of running the 6 and 12 GB sets simultaneously because I thought there would be some sort of memory density/timing issues.
    New RAM desired: Corsair Dominator with DHX Pro Connector and Airflow II Fan - DDR3 Memory Kit (CMP12GX3M3A1600C9)
    Old RAM in system: Corsair Dominator with DHX Pro Connector - 6GB Triple Channel (CMP6GX3M3A1600C8)
    Request 1: Can I mix the 6 and 12 GB sets (for a total of 18GB) if I keep the density the same across each set of slots? There are 3 black (primary) and 3 blue (secondary). I was thinking of putting the 12GB in black, and 6GB in Blue.
    I placed the order, received it, and went to install it yesterday. Took the existing 6GB out and dropped the 12GB in, saw that BIOS recogized it with the right timings, and proceeded to boot Windows up. Blue-screen at the very first Windows logo. I thought "well that stinks, let's check to see if the RAM is defective through MemTest." Downloaded an ISO of 4.2, fired it up, and it hung right away. Hung in the "Address Test, Own Address" test. Big fat A note: BIOS and MemTest both recognized the full capacity of the sticks.
    My next thought was "Well, one of them might be bad, let's try to find out which one." I individually put each one in the first slot on the board, ran MemTest, and showed 0 problems on any tests with each of them.
    Summary thus far: Individually, each 4GB stick works perfectly. In combination, they fail. The full 3x2GB set works perfectly.
    My next theory was that my board might be bad (even though the 3x2GB set in the same slots has no issues). Knowing that the first slot was good with every bit of memory I put in there, I left a 4GB stick in slot 1, and dropped a 4GB stick in slot 2. MemTest hung again. Thinking it might have been that one stick, I put the other one in there, and it hung also. So, slot 2 looks suspect. Move the sticks to 1&3, and they look fine, but that still leaves me missing 4GB of RAM.
    I've followed advice and re-seated the CPU, looked for bent pins (none found), and tried manually setting the timings to the 9-9-9-24 that is printed on the sticks. No luck with any of that.
    Request 2: So, my question to you is what am I missing? I feel like the board is the problem, due to the slot 2 problem with the 4GB sticks. However, my 2GB sticks don't have any problems at all in the same slots. Could the 4GB sticks require a little more power that my board might not be pushing out (the board is labeled at 1.5V, the sticks are labeled 9-9-9-24, 1.65V)? Would a bent pin be causing this that my eyes just cannot see? I read somewhere that a guy had a pin that was 0.25mm off that was causing his problems.
    Or should I be looking at the memory? The 3x2GB set works fine, but the 3x4GB does not.
    I'm not sure what my next step should be other than replace the RAM first, motherboard second. The RAM I just got, so I could RMA it if I knew exactly what the problem was. The motherboard is approaching 3 years old and presumably is out of warranty. I wouldn't mind replacing it, but I don't want to spend money right now if I don't have to.
    I don't have a second machine to test on, although I'm trying to locate one (most of my friends don't build custom PCs). I have also tried putting the 6GB in the black slots and 12GB in the blue, but the machine doesn't work with that configuration either.
    Request 3: Could someone explain how I could aim for 1066MHz on my RAM? I read that on the X58 Pro-E that this resolves most problems with random bluescreens. When I try to do this, I get lost in the numbers/options within the BIOS.
    Anything else I might be missing? I'm out of ideas
    Thank you all so much for the help!

    As you can see, above 1066MHz you need to overclock both the processor and the mainboard.
    I think for your config the best shot is 3 x 4GB DDR3-1333 (9-9-9-24 at 1.55-1.60V)

  • I have a 2012 Macbook Pro and the GPU is causing issues with Yosemite. How can I resolve this issue?

    I have a 2012 Macbook Pro and the GPU is causing issues with Yosemite. There are a number of issues I have run across:
    If I have four tabs open on Safari then I start to get a flickering on the screen from the GPU refreshing
    When I leave the computer alone for more than 20 mins the screen saver should start -- what happens is that the screen goes to black. When I move the cursor I do not get the login screen. I have to reboot
    FireFox Web browser will not run
    I get issues with the computer running very slowly
    I have already turned off the transparency option in settings. Any ideas??

    You may want to look at something like http://bjango.com/mac/istatmenus/. This has a Free Trial window, but it is a commercial application. If there are any heat/sensor issues, this may help.
    A SMC Reset or PRAM/NVRAM reset may also help.

  • Airport Express (n) signal issues with Powerbook G4

    Here is my setup:
    1 Airport Express (n)
    1 Cradlepoint CTR500 router
    1 Lenovo PC Laptop
    1 Powerbook G4 12"
    I have a printer hooked up to the Airport Express as well as my stereo. I have the AX set to 802.11n (b/g compatible) for the Powerbook. My laptop (PC) is n. The Powerbook is approx 10 feet away from the AX, and there is a wall with a door between the two. No electronics are between in the wall, etc. Its a pretty strait shot, except for the wall.
    I have noticed that the Powerbook will show 5 bars for Airport, and after a little bit, go down to 2 bars, or even 1. It will stay there, couple of mins at the most, then shoot back up. Sometimes I have to disconnect (turn airport off) and then reconnect to establish 5 bars.
    Now, I have also noticed on my PC that (being 3 feet away from the AX) I will sometimes go from 5 bars to 4, and my laptop will register anywhere from 14 Mbps up to ~150 Mbps connection. It settles around 72 Mbps when the Powerbook is connected to the network. So why under normal web page browsing, does my speed drop to 14, 28, 36 Mbps, yet show signal strength at 4 bars, or even 5, usually when the Powerbook is connected? In addition, and I understand that the 54G rated Powerbook will slow the network down all around, why is it that the Powerbook will drop from 5 bars down to 2, or even 1 in the airport menu? Is the AX changing channels? I have manually set it to channel 8 to see if that was the problem, and it didn't seem to solve anything.
    I am kind of at a loss here. Perhaps interference? I do live in an old 100+ year old house, so that might be an issue? I will say that when I set it to N 5GHz, my laptop will connect and maintain a 300 Mbps speed. That's pretty good IMHO. So since that stays connected properly, I can only assume that it is a 2.4 GHz interference issue with neighbors, upstairs phones (this is an apartment) or other devices perhaps.

    I think you're probably right that you're getting intermittent interference at 2.4 GHz.
    Suggest you try [iStumbler|http://istumbler.net]. Monitor it for a day or so to get an idea of which channels your neighbors may be using. Then, set the AX to one as different from the others as possible. If the interference problem returns, try another open channel.
    Also, try activating interference robustness on the AX and Powerbook.

  • Anyone have issues with Sata 3 SSD in the 2011 Macbook Pro

    Hi Guys and Gals.
    Does anyone have issues with the Macbook Pro 2011 Model with a Sata3 Solid State Drive ?
    I have issues and have a Vertex3 made by OCZ. I am in active discussions with OCZ to find a resolution on their end. I have also contacted Apple Care and Intel and have run into dead ends.
    However I am bringing my MBP for a repair, logic board replacement and will post the results after they change the logic board for me.
    Check my thread on OCZ: http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?89970-A-call-to-all-Macbo ok-Pro-2011-Users-with-SATA3-Issues
    Regards,
    Jase

    Well, my My Genius appointment went very much as anticipated - it might well be a SATA III connection but Apple they do not support SATA III drives - least of all other people's.
    Furthermore, they do not actually support anything other than the original configuration as sold - so given that I bought a 750 GB HD version, that is what I am stuck with - I asked Apple (London Regent St) if they could upgrade it to one of their own SSDs if I paid for it - they could not.  They can only repair the machine to its original condition. They could not even advise me as to what Apple co-branded SSD I should look for to be compatible with this model - 512 Gb drives do come up on Ebay - Apple / Toshiba seems to be the normal one - but they couldn't advise if that would work or not. So it could be good money after bad.
    Anyhow, they finally agreed to swap the cable, for a charge, so that will take two or thee days, plus the 5mins to do the job.  I will post the results of the cable swap when I have it. They could not tell me whether it would be a different version of the SATA cable to the one already in the machine - but I asked to keep the old one so I can see if there is any visible difference.
    It does seem strange that Apple support thunderbolt drives - which you can't even buy yet, but don't support SATA III in either Mac Pro or MAcBook Pro given that the full 3.0 standard was released on May 27, 2009.
    Two and a bit years is a long time in tech terms.

    Hotjase, have you come to understand that the issue lies with the logic board? One would hope that Apple would owe up and come forward if there are in fact faulty logic borards. I have read that Apple have gone from 6/3 to 6/6 and then back to 6/3, though I do not know if this is applicable to all MBP models, or just some. As I sayed, I have the 13" model.
    SdeS, what was the result of your talk with the Genius? Did you receive a new cable? If so what result?

  • Ok, so I have a 1g macbook Pro and I'm having an issue with the graphics card, so I believe.

         I believe I'm having an issue with the graphics card. For one, when I'm using programs like iMovie '11, SPORE, or the Sims 3  for long periods (hours usualy) of time, the computer will be perfectly fine. It gets warmish-hot, like usuall, all of a sudden it will randomly freeze for 5 to 10 seconds, then shut down and reststart. This happens, espically on the Sims 3 I can play for a while, but when I try to save it will shut down on me.
         Also, I got a new iPod touch 4g on the 25th, the first few times I tried syncing and downloading, it started off fine, but after 10 min. it would restart. Now it works ok, but I still monitor it just incase.
         Can anyone help me understand why all of this is happening? I beleve the graphics card isn't good enough, even though it meets the standards for iLife, and The Sims 3. My graphics card is a ATI,RadeonX1600. The laptop has 2 GB RAM runs at 2.16GHz with an Intel Core Duo on OS X Snow Lepard (10.6.8). Thanks everyone.

    Threads are just processes that link together like the threads in these discussions, well, maybe that is a bad example given how disjointed these get
    It looks like you are not pushing the cpu or hard drive enough to cause your behavior.  Not sure what the temperature limit on that cpu is, on the newer models it is around 100-110 °C which is notciabley hot, and the system shutsdown for self protection at the thermal limit.
    You could be hitting a thermal limit causing that behavior...so do you see good behavior at lower load levela on the system?  Does this only happen with when you are under the high graphic loads?
    Trying to zero in on when this occurs to see if we an isolate the problem.

  • Macbook Pro 15" vs 17" & space designer issues with VSL

    Hey Group! This is my first post/question. I'm a composer who does alot of sampling work and just stepped up to the macbook pro15" with the specs listed below. I'm running LogicPro (first time user on that, DP before), everything updated fully.
    I have no G4 or Quad... this will be my primary machine. I went with the 15" for portabilty and price (I'll be adding a separate display for larger view home studio work). Has anyone experienced nightmares because of the smaller amounts of firewire and usb ports? I use the left usb for my MBoxII (so there's audio and midi), the right usb for program keys (via a hub) and the firewire port for the external audio. I gather I can turn the card slot into addntl firewire ports (any 3rd party info on that appreciated). In other words, other than the slightly smaller display size have I made a terrible mistake choosing the 15" over the 17"?
    Also, I've experienced that when I use presets or matrices from the the VSL Solo Strings Instrument interface in the EXS24 I get random audio drop outs and it makes the space designer go nutty, even when I try different buffer settings. I see huge CPU spikes and hear audio glitching during the reverb tail of final notes. I also can't reactivate another note until the cpu settles back down (about 5 seconds) without getting very glitchy response. This only seems to happen with the VSL. Anyone else experiencing this?
    for Audio/Midi interface-ing I also own a Motu828mkII, which isn't as great for on the road work, but i could definitely use for my set up at home.....would I expect substantially better program performance out of that than the MboxII?
    Many thanks for all thoughts and responses
    Mark B

    Update: Vienna Strings is aware that there are still a few issues with the VSL Instruments and Intel Macs and they seem to be working very hard to fix these bugs ASAP.
    Having great success programming very large orchestral tracks with my set up (see below) and, after finding a balance between ram and frozen tracks, I'm able to get alot out of the 2 gigs of Ram on the Macbookpro. It's definitely a tightrope between cpu/and disk i/o usage (how much to freeze (which seems to put more strain on the i/o) and how much to keep in ram (which seems to make the cpu happy), and I'm finding larger buffer sizes allow for smoother playback without any noticable midi performance lag. I don't do a whole lot of audio recording with Logic, mostly sequencing and sampling, so i can't speak much to the audio track issues, or real time recording over sequenced tracks.

  • MSI K8T Neo2 issue with SATA drives....

    I have a K8T Neo2 motherboard, with a 3700+ San Diego core, running Windows XP Service Pack 2. I don't have the version with the Promise SATA Raid - using the VIA SATA RAID. I am using the latest BIOS (according to the Live Monitor).
    The machine was set up (the OS installed) on an IDE 40 gig drive. All was fine, but I noticed that my machine lagged at times (mostly games, under heavy disk load) so I decided to get a couple of Seagate 250 gig drives (they have NCQ, which I know is not supported by this MB, but they were on sale, and I'd read that the drive should still work ok).
    I attached the drives, and enabled SATA in the bios. The machine boots fine. I created a single 500 gig striped array using the two new drives. Windows XP sees the array fine, but that I have to initialize it.
    Every time I initialize it I get an error that says, "An error has occured" and tells me to check the event log (nothing there), and to either restart the Disk Manager or reboot my computer. The OS actually locks up a few times when I'm doing this (the mouse-cursor freezes).
    I've tried using the disks as two single disks, same error (and it reported that they were only 137 gig each, though apparently it's a registry issue, and I used a util to change that setting, but I haven't tested to see if it changed anything.).
    I got the latest VIA SATA drives from the MSI site, and installed them (though honestly, WindowsXP saw the card and the drives just fine). One weird thing is that the VIA SATA RAID is listed under SCSI devices in the Device Manager - there is no SATA category in there.
    I'm at a loss here. I've searched the web, and this forum, without luck.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    *Edit* I just unplugged two IDE disk drives from the computer, and when I started it up again, it found a Promise SATA Raid controller. I thought that wasn't included with the basic version of the board?
    David.

    Ok - thanks - I read through the stickies and updated my bios tonight to 9.20 (the latest).
    Had some dry-mouth moments when WindowsXP decided to "discover" every piece of hardware I had, right down to the mouse, and again when core-center rebooted my computer.
    Also, there was some time where my memory (OCZ 2-3-3-6 DDR3200) was being set to CAS2.5, which was kind of weird, but it fixed itself.
    Unfort, I am unable to increase my FSB/HTT speed past about 205 before my computer does a reboot.
    I have an ATI video card (X800 Plat Ed), and I'd read that some other people had issues with ATI card and the AGP-lock, so I got the CG-ICS950405 clock-gen, and it does state that my AGP is running at 66 (and PCI 33).
    Going to bump up my settings via clockgen as soon as I post this (want to post before it potentially crashes).
    Should I roll back to the 9.10 bios? Not a lot of discussion on the 9.2, and I'm wondering if it causes some issues.
    Thanks again for all the help and info. I used to have a firm grasp on all the components of a system, way back in the P3 days, but things have changed quite a bit...
    **EDIT**
    Seems to be a Core-Center issue. Used ClockGen to o/c to 2600, with temp nice and low. Will run like this for a bit. Does Core-Center work with a 9.X bios?
    I think all my problems are solved - copied a wack of files to my SATA drives, and there were no issues. I won't trust Live Monitor again for drivers or bios - it's still stuck way back at 3.30.
    I'll pass the info I've learned off whenever I can.
    Comments and criticisms welcome.
    David.
    Quote from: Puppetman on 26-September-05, 23:23:42
    I looked at the motherboard page - they recommend 3.30 unless you have having issues (which I kind of guess I am). Funny that Live Monitor won't pick up those BIOS changes - wonder what else I'm missing.
    So 9.1 fixes the AGP/HTT overclocking issue?
    The stickies are great - thanks.

  • Z77A-G43 issue with SATA drive

    This is wierd
    I have 4 Hitachi drives all of 1TB, perfectly working on old PC.
    Today have decided to transfer them into new PC:
    MB: Z77A-G43
    BIOS: 1.20
    CPU: Intel g2020
    Primary drive is Intel SSD 120G series 330
    I have attached 3 HITACHI drives successfully, they are all working fine.
    but particular one forces MB to reboot before BIOS screen, last code seen on screen is A2?
    Then I have decided to put dedicated controller 1st I took SilImage 3512 SATA/RAID Controller
    - no changes computer reboots before post screen
    After I took VIA VT6421 SATA/RAID Controller
    - no changes computer reboots before post screen
    searched web, found nothing useful.
    any ideas what might causing this?
    EDIT: tested controller SiI3512 on old PC and trouble HDD, everything works just fine :/
    read AMIBIOS codes:

    A2 is ide ? what ide ? I give up.
    it seams to me that this board is broken in several ways
    - non working DVI
    - faulting with valid SATA drive
    what else awaits me on this road

    Quote from: flobelix on 07-May-13, 04:27:27
    using IDE previously and now AHCI might trouble Windows but system would none the less post. At least you should get past IDE detection but hanging at A2 means it doesn't.
    I'm wondering about your statement you had been using SilImage 3512 SATA/RAID Controller and VIA VT6421 SATA/RAID Controller. Are these PCI add-on cards? Did you try all SATA ports controlled by the Z77 chipset. Are the drives used are all identical? Is the issue only happening with one particular drive or anytime you attach a fourth hdd no matter which one it is?
    About the performance difference from AHCI to IDE the differences are minimal. Should be almost irrelevant for the hdds.
    My discoveries:
    Using sata mode IDE with windows installed in AHCI mode == windows hangs during loading (BSOD), probably missing drivers or similar.
    Also I am unsure what A2 code means but I have noticed it is displayed while bios post screen shows up with the list of installed drives during normal boot.
    And is also last code I see when I attach problematic drive resulting in reboot loop.
    To be honest I haven't tried all SATA ports on board for sure I haven't tried SATA 1 (1st white) as there is my SSD drive.
    But I have tried almost all other ports. I can try them all, but I don't think this will solve the problem.
    I don't think problem is in what slot I put my drive, since same behavior is with SATA/RAID controllers.
    And whit this SATA/RAID controllers this drive is working perfectly normal on other PC.
    No not all drives are identical but I have exactly same drive as this one, and all drives are hitachi:
    * HDT721010KLA330 working fine
    * HDS721010SLA360 working fine
    * HDS721010CLA332 (1) working fine
    * HDS721010CLA332 (2) problematic drive == reboot loop (when its single drive or with others).
    True I haven't tried to detach Intel SSD and leave problematic drive as only drive in system, I may try this tomorrow)
    funny part is that HDS721010CLA332 (2) is working fine when I hot plug it.
    Checked firmware version on both drives, and both drives have identical firmwares.
    Only difference I know off is that working drive has 1 partition, and problematic drive has 2 partitions.
    EDIT: forgot to say it passed SMART test, everything was green (hitachi sw), while hdd sentinel reported 1 bad sector but saying estimated drive working days > 900 days and degree was 98% I am guessing because of that 1 bad sector and too many working days (years) behind him.
