Z87 MSI Mpower Max Adaptive vcore not working properly?

Hi, first time MSI MB user here.
After I finished tweaking my OC settings, I changed the vcore voltage from fixed to adaptive mode, since that is said to lower the idle temps.
However, it doesn't seem to work in the way that I thought it would.
Vcore voltage stays at the same value regardless of whether the CPU is idle or under load.  I thought it would lower itself when the CPU is idle.
Am I misunderstanding something here?
Voltage check done by AIDA64 and CPU-Z 1.64.3
Below are my bios settings:
BIOS ver. 1.1
CPU Ratio Mode - Dynamic
Adjust CPU Ratio - 45
EIST and Turbo boost -enabled
Adjusted Ring ratio - auto (39x)
Adjusted Ring Frequency - 3900Mhz
VCCIN Voltags - 1.95V
CPU Core Voltage Mode - Adaptive
CPU Core Voltage - 1.25
Thanks.

Once the CPU V. is taken out of auto and set manually, the voltage isn't going to drop at idle.

That's not what I was led to believe?
Yup! Turns out your belief is correct. The rules 'have' changed with Z87!

  • MSI 865PE NEO FISR2 Audio not working properly

    The audio on my board is not working properly.  I have it set for 6 channel and am using Creative Labs Inspire 5.1 Speakers that have 3 inputs that match the 3 output jacks on the mobo.  However, its just not right.  It is sending anything to all 5.1 speakers and also to the proper speaker at same time.  So every sound is coming through all speakers and it a tad louder on the speaker it should be coming out on.  Anyone else have any clue as to what setting I can change to correct this or is this something wrong with the cmedia drivers?

    The answer to all your suggestions is yes, already did it and in the demo app the sounds work fine.  Its just so odd, I may just go to Circuit City tomorrow and buy another set of speakers and see if it is possibly them that are causing the issue.  Then if so, I'll just return the Creative Labs ones as I just bought them 2 weeks ago and CC has great return policy
    Actually, one of your questions I did not either understand what you meant or did not see the option Quote
    Did you enable the output port correctly - LR to LR, surround to surround, center/lfe to center/lfe
     The only thing I see is setting phones, 2, 4 or 6 channel in the cmedia control panel and then I plugged in the proper cables.

  • AC adapter light not working

    When charging my Macbook Pro sometimes the indicator LED light doesn't come on at all.  Everytime I checked when the LED isn't working the computer still charges, but I am not sure if when I leave it sometimes if it is charging correctly since the LED doesn't work periodically.  I am also wondering if this is an issue with the adapter, rather then the actual computer port.  If it is the computer port I don't feel comfortable with sending it out for repairs if its just a small issue.  I guess what I am trying to see is if anyone else has experienced this issue.  I would much rather go to the apple store and recieve a new adapter, and if the issue persists I can send it in for repairs.  Please if anyone has experience with the same trouble I have had let me know.  Thank you in advance.

    May be the adapter is not working properly.
    Take the MBP and MagSafe/Power Adapter to the Apple store  for evaluation.

    The MagSafe power adaptor LED doesn't appear to indicate the correct activity.

  • Bootcamp 3.2: Microsoft Virtual WiFi MiniPort Adapter shows "device is not working properly...Code 31"

    Using Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit, Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter shows the "device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31).".The device is the Apple iMac10,1 All-in-one computer. Right clicking browse files (for the device) shows the Bootcamp (C:), DVD (D:); and my external hard drives can be selected.
    Internet and WiFi connections all working ok. Am also running MacDrive 8 to access the Mac drives when in the Windows partition, again without any seeming issues.
    Updating the driver simply generates another Code 31 error.
    Appreciate this seems to be a known problem - is the a solution a novice use might be able to follow or should I simply ignore the error message?
    Driver Date us 21/06/2006 and Driver Version is 6.1.7600.16385.

    Hi  ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. It is a great site for information and questions. I have looked into your issue about your HP ENVY 4-1204tx Ultrabook and issues with WiFi adapter is not working properly. Error codes in Device Manager in Windows  8.1 could be fixed by deleting any extra drivers. So I would uninstall all that is listed in the Network drivers in the Device Manager, restart the Notebook. Here is a list of Device Manager options, this might help.
    Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that need updating or reinstalling. Hope this helps. Thanks.

  • [SOLVED] Configuring SPDIF for MSI Mpower MAX

    Hi people of the Arch,
    I would like to play music over SPDIF, while I get no errors, I also get no sound.
    I have read the Wiki here Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture
    Also, I've been Googling and searching here on the forum, I've followed some steps but none seem to 'sound' right.
    What I have not done is creating an asoundrc file with my setup, I believe that I can test if it works first, before I create such a file. Like to hear if this is right.
    And I should note that I also use regular stereo out and USB headphones.

    Mine originally came with v1.1 and had no problem booting or restarting problem of holding settings above stock/auto/default. 
    Quote
    What happens is that it will make it past the start orbs and I see the mouse with a black background and then it BSODs. The computer restarts again and then boots properly.
    Usually an indicator a voltage isn't high enough. OC settings don't sound stable. Might open a thread in the OC and Undervolt forum section for help with that. I've stayed away from the DRAM Training (left it as is) and reached 2800 without any trouble. Not all IMC's are going to handle that speed though from what I've been reading. All my benchmarks so far are showing RAM speed above 1600 adds little performance value.

  • RFC adapter in XI 3.0 not working properly with BAPI in R/3 4.6C

    Here is the scenario.
    An XML file is received from our customer. This file contains purchase order information that is used to create a sales order in our SAP 4.6C system. Once the sales order is created an acknowledgement is generated and this is returned back to our customer in an XML format.  This scenario is working perfectly fine in our XI 2.0 system but is not working properly in our XI 3.0 test environment. Our custom function module in R/3 is a wrapper function that uses a standard SAP BAPI to create the sales order. Part of the function module does use the statement
    call function 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
    The last thing the BAPI does is call another function module that using an RFC destination that will return and order acknowledgement.
    Here is what happens within XI and our SAP system.
    The XML file is received and mapped to our imported RFC. The RFC adapter is called and the information is passed onto SAP where our customer function module executed. The sales order is created within SAP without any problems and the second function module is called which references an RFC destination assigned to our XI 3.0 system. The information is sent back to XI and an appropriate file is created for our customer.  All seems to be working properly except that when the original RFC is sent from XI to SAP,  SAP creates a short dump stating
    "call to messaging system failed: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.DeliveryException:" Then it is put back into the que where 5 minutes later it executes again and trys to recreate the sales order in SAP. (again, this same function module executing from XI 2.0 works fine)
    I believe I have everything configured properly because the SAP side is being executed and I am successfully passing information back from SAP to XI. However the original function module in SAP is failing with the above error message. It appears that the original function module cannot communicate back with XI. I have had SAP looking at this issue and they have not been successful yet in solving this problem.
    Any ideas.
    Thanks,
    Jim d'Hulst

    Hi,
    I think the problem is with the send back of acknowledgement to XI. Does the DeliveryException state something about the sender agreement? I guess you are using a statement like below:
    CALL FUNCTION 'ZABCD'
    destination <tcp/ip destination>
    exporting
    input = ack.
    In that case, check whether the TCP/IP destination is working fine. Also, to be able to exchange message, the structure of the Function Module ZABCD needs to be identified as the sender in XI Configuration (Integration Directory).
    Also, check your config with the blog mentioned below:

  • Max Memory Settings Not Working (SQL Server 2008 R2)

    I have 12 GB ram in sql server 2008 R2 of 64 bit server (Windows 2008 R2).
    I have set the Max memory setting to 12288 MB Memory setting.
    Still the usage of sql server process is around 14  GB.
    Is Max memory setting not working?
    I have also enabled AWE after all it is 64 bit.
    Thanks

    Problem is that: my OS is halting due to this RAM. I have 16 GB of ram and assigning 12 GB to SQL SERVER and rest is using for OS. Please guide me how to get information about actual memory usage from all sql server processes. like
    all CLR etc 
    Hi,
    Are you also running SSIS/SSAS/SSRS with database engine services. What do you mean by OS is halting ?
    If you want to check whether SQL Server is facing memory crunch please have a look at perfmon counters from
    this link
    Sys.dm_OS_memory_clerks would be DMV helpful in tracking memory utilized by various processes
    I have also enabled AWE after all it is 64 bit. Thanks
    Please note AWE doe snot have any notable affect in 64 bit system.
    Below will tell you memory used by SQLCLR
    select single_pages_kb + multi_pages_kb + virtual_memory_committed_kb from sys.dm_os_memory_clerks where type = 'MEMORYCLERK_SQLCLR'
    Below query will give you memory consumed by various clerk
    SELECT type, SUM(multi_pages_kb)
    FROM sys.dm_os_memory_clerks
    WHERE multi_pages_kb <> 0
    GROUP BY type
    ORDER BY SUM(multi_pages_kb) DESC
    Can you reduce max server memory to 11 G and see if it gives some relief

  • HP Pavilion Power Adapter Beeping/Not Working

    I just made a post earlier tonight about how my HP Pavilion dv7-1014ca Entertainment Notebook was running too hot. Well now I've got bigger problems.
    The battery on my laptop has been shot for a while now. My notebook isn't even 2 years old yet and I've gone through3 batteries. For whatever reason, they just aren't lasting. Last year I also had issues with my power jack not working properly. I got it repaired last summer, but in the past two months, it seems as if the issue has returned. Sometimes when I move the chord, the power supply cuts out. Also in the past month or so, my power adapter has been making this annoying beeping noise whenever I plugged it in. It would usually go away if I fiddled with it, but as of right now, I can't get it to stop, short of unplugging the thing. As it stands, the power adapter no longer seems to work, and since my battery is shot, my notebook has turned off. With no battery and no external power source, my laptop is unusable.
    So... is the adapter fried? Is my power jack toast again? Seeing as my PC is no longer under warranty, what are my best options for replacement parts/fixes?

    Hello @pxj,
    I understand that your notebook's keyboard is not working, and that your alternative keyboard does not function as well. I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
    Since your system's available drivers do not contain any keyboard drivers for Windows 7, I recommend obtaining a recovery disc to re-install Windows Vista on your system. This can be done by following this document on Obtaining HP Recovery Discs or an HP USB Recovery Drive.
    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

    Run this driver.  If it installs automatically, great.  If not...

    Go to the device manager and click on the network controller needing drivers.
    Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update Driver.  Select the Browse my computer for driver software option and browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.
    That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp34931.  Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and see if the driver installs that way.

  • Satellite Pro U200: VGA output not working properly when AC adapter was connected

    Hi,
    I have a problem with vga output. When I'm working on battery and connect my notebook to external monitor it's ok, but when I connect AC adaptor then start waving also bluetooth and wlan does not work properly. In other case when I remove battery from notebook and connect AC adaptor it works properly.
    thanks in advance

    As long as you use a CRT you should set the refresh rate new, at least 85Hz. Standard is 60Hz as far as I know, and that hurts in your eyes.
    The wireless lan behaviour is quite normal as long as your not right next to the access point. On battery power the wireless lan card reduces its energy consumption thus the connection will be poor if you dont have a perfect signal. You can turn this off in the iNTEL Pro/SET wireless software, where you can configure the adaptor. Try to change the powersafe mode to manual and full power, this should solve your problem.
