Hello,
After i wake my pc from s3 sleep state, cpu fsb and ram divider revert back to values set at the bios. Also the cpu voltage is set to 1.4 default value.
Is there a way to change this behaviour? I want the values to stay where they are.
I have a amd64 venice 3000+.
I have a problem with the SATA3 and SATA4 ports on my K8N Neo2. Whenever I connect a drive to one of them I can't boot into windows. It gets to the windows loading sreen but the screen is very faint and the progress bar doesn't move. I have tried several drives which all work OK when connected to SATA1 or SATA2.
Also, I just bought a Maxtor 300gb SATA driv. The drive is capable of 300mb (SATA II ?). When I try to connect it to any SATA port I am unable to boot into windows. It attempts to reboot and keeps going to the 'didn't boot correctly into windows last time...' screen. I changed the jumper on the drive make it 150mb but it still didn't work. It's possible that the drive is faulty but I wanted to check to see if the K8N Neo2 board had a size restriction for SATA drives.
Any ideas?
Make sure that you have the drivers for the SATA chip on the mobo. I'm not sure if 3 & 4 use a Silicon Image chip. You might want to check that out.
anyone have any idea whats up with mine???
try setting your timings to 2-3-2-7 instead of 2-2-2-7, and then change it back to 2-2-2 in Windows with A64Tweaker.
I have som serious problems with my new RAM
512*2 XTREEM DDR600 Team Group
When I run bios 1.47mod the RAM can only run 1:1@300FSB in singelchannel not in dual 1024. Does anyone else have problems running 1:1@300FSB, or have the solution to my problem?
My goal is running 300*9 = 2700mhz, its not the cpu that's the problem.
System:
3000+ Venice
2*512 XTREEM
MSI NEO2
I've tried 1.36b with bad results, no boot unless FSB<220.

You'll be very lucky on a NF3 to reach anywhere near 1:1 at 300 in dual channel.
Ok, how about NF4?Quote:

I am starting to upgrade my system the specs are bellow. I would like to know if any other these Ram have been used before on the Neo2 Plat. and with what result?
Also is it worth upgrading or waiting? (cost per gain)?

Well, I've been using the same RAM for about a week (see sig) - so far so good :D There doesn't seem to be any UCCC-specific modded BIOSes, though...Quote:

Actually, what I have in BIOS for voltage and what CPU-Z, MBM, Core Center etc. read in Windows are hardly ever the same, and usually on the low side. I'm 6h prime stable, which for my tastes is barely, but temps are okay despite the voltages. I'm hoping I can do with less voltage if I can get what I'm using more stable.
Could the issue be hardware, BIOS, or what? The PSU is an RMA replacement, if that means anything...

Hey everybody, I saw some wierd stuff so i thought id report. WIERD BIOS OBSERVATIONS ON STOCK AND SIDEFFECT BIOS *********
************************************************** ***********************************************
I was on the 1 c final , i got a 3700 and rushed it in my board forgot to clear bios. It corrupted and I couldnt get back in. I ordered another bios , put it in no problem. and got on the internet.
Flashed old bios to 1c final , tried to get on internet and could not. Also I had to enable the giga network to get windows to give me nvidia connection , and I needed the firewire on. Then I disable both in windows and go with the nvidia connection. Well on the old bios I get no connection to the internet even with a clear cmos command in dos! Windows gives me a no connect IP like my nic isnt working.
So ok the old bios chip got damaged everything else seems to work. Ill clear it and keep for emergency. Flashed to latest msi bios
I put new bios back in and get into windows and even get the internet ...ok
flash 1 c final and again I have to have the giga lan and firewire enabled in bios to get the nvidia connection . Fine I disable the others and then I get on the internet.
Since my mistake in haste. I am seeing the giga lan blurb when booting up and I believe a raid detect or ide raid check that is disabled. This happens with bios on old chip and new chip even with cmos cleared . My old bios originaly was 1 b and was winflashed to 1 c no problem. During that time I didnt see any raid check or the giga lan check during a boot up after post screen. SO that is wierd!!!
Anyway so far everything seems ok Im not overclocking yet though. I am preparing to get a raid o installed so I also thought this would be a good idea to put these observations up. Its wierd.
I too have been having very wierd things happen in my bios recently.
First off yesterday I couldn't boot windows at all, the bios wouldn't find my hard drives. So I reflashed the bios and everything was okay.
A short time later the same thing happened again. Then after I try to reboot I get the Realtek LAN message right before it should have booted into windows. I flashed again.
So far it has been okay but I wonder what is going on that keeps corrrupting my bios. I also randomly get the "Nvidia is searching for array" message even though I have disabled RAID in the bios.
What usually causes that type of behaviour?
I checked my battery and the voltage was at 2.79 volts which according to what I've read is okay.
The Bios in question is also "1C Final by sideeffect"
Any help from you experts would be great.

I am sure that I used to have the realtek disabled all the time and I didnt see this message but now I must have this giga lan enabled or windows wont give me the nvidia connection under network connections. THATS MY WIERD THING.
Tata2 what you see is probly normal. Even though its disabled it looks or we get the message , who knows if the board is actually looking. It maybe just because its a modded bios. I dont know
Some claim 500 ddr with the platinum rev 2 tccd but I couldnt do it with my venice 3200. I could do it but I would get various bsod for no reasons sometimes and memtest no problem. Went back down to 10 x 200 and problems went away 5 2 2 2 timings. Prime example of an overclock pushed too far.Quote:

Are you sure that your MC was up to it? It would have to be an awfully crappy mem controller, but that might have been the problem. I really doubt that it could have been that you pushed the Venice too far. 2500mhz should have been no problem. What volts did you run? 2.7v would probably be the best setting, since that usually set ~2.78 on my Neo2.
And I'm not quite sure where your post fits in with his, since he's talking about 1gb sticks, which is impossible with TCCD. But whatever.
I want to blame the cpu cause I fear the memory being the probolem but it passed tests. 145 +8% and mem was 275 and shortly 2.8 im maxing that this time. The 3200 seems to run like a dream but the various bsods I was getting do relate to memory as the overall concensus.
I have had troubles with ram in the past and that is why I am asking.
One time I got some OCZ gold GX ram and it would not over clock past 200fsb. The ram worked fine on any other computer and OCZ swore the ram would work and offered to RMA it. I posted my results in a pervious post.
I seem to have troubles going over 200fsb with T1 timings. And have tried an number of things with no result.
I like the idea of PC4000 ram over the tight timings. I guess the only way to find out is to try it.
OCZ Gold EL PC4000 2GB 2X1GB DDR500 CL3-4-4-8 184PIN DIMM Dual Channel Memory Kit W/ Ramsink
or
Mushkin XP PC4000 2GB 2X1GB DDR500 CL 3-4-3-8 184PIN DIMM Dual Channel Memory Kit
Agr I hate making decisions with out full info. I think I will go with OCZ as I do not know Mushkin or if they are compatible. If only computers where easy...
Sleepy Samurai the new muskins are lookin sweet to me did you catch bachus's review http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...hlight=mushkin
They have CE-5 chips the old mushkins (wich I have, are CE-6 ) The mushkins are definitely compatible with my board. I havent got the pleasure of using OCZ yet but want to, either one should do fine. Also the gskill 2gb will be cheaper.
Get those new muskins and let us know how the do!:)
K just switched from Ballistix Z503's to G.Skill 2GBHZ's and without any tweaking been able to run same 265MHz, slightly loser 3,4,4,8 (from 3,3,3,8 with Z503's) but most noteably @ 1T (from 2T with Z503's)
and this is hours of BF2 STABLE which makes K H.A.P.P.Y. =D
tweaking to come soon =]
Hi to all...
2 SE,
Please can you make 1.8F mod with 1T fix but without changing memory
latency..., like NFM did.
I have RAID 0, and with newer bioses starting from 1.A to 1.D have anoyng
problems like (comp don't want to boot at all, can't detect hdd's, can't load
windows...), tryed every bios available but no one works OK exept 1.8F and
older. I see that other users on this forum who have RAID 0 have same
problems..., and it's obvious that older bioses work better for us with RAID 0.
With NFM 1.8R3 works OK, but memory latency's are to tight, and bios
suffers from 2T. Don't know if "san diego edition" can work ok to...
PLEASE save us...
Hi PURE MCSE,
I use 180NFM(Rev.3)1T The Sandiego edition which forces 1T
and found it to be one of the most stable and have ideal timings for
my G.Skill HZ which I run at 270 2.6v 3,4,3,6 1T. With some of the newer bioses when i overclocked(low overclocks) sometimes my raid array would be lost so i would have to reset cmos and start again which just got annoying in the end so I switched back to NFM's bios and never looked back.
By the way what memory are you running?
HI HeamothoraxUK
I use Infineon 2 x 512 PC3200.... stable until 235 at 1:1.
I was afraid to flash becouse the core is not San Diego but VENICE...
I used NFM 1.8r3/2T standard edition and it worked ok. NEVER had RAID problems at all.
The "THING" that bother's me with NFM bios is memory latency...
Factory default latency: TRRD(2), TRWT(4), TWR(3)..., NFM bios set them to be TRRD(3), TRWT(2),
TWR (2), everything worked so far without a single eror but I think it's to tight for my memory...(maybe I
am wrong...). I dont know what's the difference between NFM 1.8r3/2t standard edition
and NFM 1.8r3/1t San Diego edition, is the diffrenece only 1t/2t fix or there is something more...
- Is it safe to flash San Diego edition for VENICE core...
Thanks...
HI PURE MCSE,
I'm almost sure venice is supported natively by pre 1.8 bioses
it was only the sandiego which was not so you should be ok. If you want extra voltage on your chip try the 1.36 or 1.37 modded bioses.
Hi PURE MCSE,
Just had a quick scan through this thread you should be alright
with 1.36Mod and upwards I don't know if there are any 1T 2T issues but avoid 1.52Mod as it doesn't work and will trash your board. Good luck.
