have you disabled aggresive chipset timings? That really causes problems at HTTs beyond 240-250Quote:

How did you configure the IDE Options, for Benches :) ?
I've one Single SATA Seagate 80 GBs conected just for Benching.
I checked with HDTach270 and give me very lousy performance, about 40% of CPU Utilization.

Update
OK, Disabled IDE Controllers + Enable SATA DMA
I tested with HD Tach 3, gives 2% CPU Utilization | Random Access 12.9ms | Avg read 47.2
So it seems that HDTach270 doesnt compatible with nVIDIA nForce3 controller
New 1.51b beta bios...
So far so good...
Before you ask or PM me for the bios, I am under "NDA" :D...
If you would like to test the bios, please PM OnePageBook or conrad.maranan & I'm sure they'd email the bios to ya or link you to the 1.51 beta bios...
Only thing I am not happy with the 1.51 bios is that VID is still only 10% max...
Minor problem only, I just use CoreCenter & get up to 1.75v (when set at 1.85 in CoreCenter)...
So far so good... Update this post/thread after a day or two to see if there's any problems that arise...
More info on the 1.51 bios 1.51b bios thread
Cheers,
Minnyboy
Any info about what has been updated on the 1.51 bios ?
Cheers,
B
where is the VDimm Read point, on this board?
does the zalman cnps 7000B Cu fits one the msi?
Yep, but don't use the MSI backplate.Quote:

I also tried sticking it in other pci slots and sticking my ethernet card in the pci slots, it also doenst get detected.
So my question is why isnt anything getting detected in my pci slots?? am i missing something????? They work on my old computer...
Just making sure i dont have to do anythign special for the pci slots to work, they should work once i pop them in right? windows should detect some new hardware... Anyways just checking before i rma it back.
sorry for the noob question , but where can i turn LDT down to 3x ? i can't find it ...
The BIOS lists it as "HT Frequency" ... same thing.
I have heard that the temp reporting on the Neo 2 is inaccurate. Just how inaccurate is it? I have readings of 60C+ in CoreCenter and would really be upset if I were to fry this CPU. Running 265 x 10 @ 1.55 + 15% to see if I can get Prime stable.
I don't know how off it is on air, but under a Mach 1 my 3 GHz load temps are shown in the +50's, lol. It's off a lot.Quote:

make sure you have plug n play enabled... it might be an irq problem, contact the msi support and check the msi support forums first for similar problem.Quote:

yeah I've tried most of the tips besides the hardmods and I've only been able to oc stably around 2.6 using htt 3x, 10x260, I'm also using the 1.51 bios
heres a screenie of cpuz at stock
http://intenseghetto.com/o/albums/benchs/amd/fxcpuz.JPG
any other info you would need?
I think using 3x HTT is not good 4 260x10. mine max with HTT 4x @ 276x10 and very stable @260x10@ Vcore 1.45v (winy 3200+, K8N Neo2 on Air.. )
i think its your cpu maxing out, not the board... try a lower multi.
what vcore what cpu load temps?
or maybe its the memory... what timings?
does anyone else have a problem with the nforce built-in-nic where it takes of 10 kb/s of upload speed?
did you try a nic card?
Are you useing the nVidia Firewall ?Quote:

I suggest trying a NIC card.....and another tip:
Start --> Run --> gpedit.msc
Administrative Templates --> Network --> QoS Packet --> Limit Reservable Bandwidth
Set this value to ENABLED 0%.

hi,
I have now my new pc since a week and i travelled around the net to have answers for the several problems i encountered. Now my pc is running so-so but he is running. I have :
Msi k8n neo2 platinum (bios v1.3)
a64 3500+ @220*11 (ht 4*) (don't know if its a 0.13 or 0.09 i'll explain later but he is working with 1.525 v now)
Zalman cnps 7000b cu with artic silver 5
2*512 ocz el 2-3-2-6
Gainward 2600 golden sample
Audigy 2 zs
I'm facing strange problems and hope anyone could help me with it.
1) I have a temperature problem . With mbm 5 or the core center. Sometimes the proc is 37°idle at bootup and sometimes it is at 48°!!!! I saw that there is a temperature issue with the board that is strange is that when i bootup at 37° everything works fine but when it's 48° i keep having freeze in any tests 3dmark or so. C&q is not activated in bios and i have not installed the c&q patche for a64 (i uninstalled it cause with it it took 1min to restart the system each time).
2) I have the 1.3 bios and what is strange is that each time i reset it by clearing cmos or removing the battery, he identifies the proc as an a64 3500+ but sometimes <with a 1.4v and sometimes with a 1.5. It's strange...
I have noted the information on the proc it read :
ADA3500DEP4AW
CBAEC0429RPMW
1062954G40449
If anyone knows if its a 0.9 or a 0.13 it would be nice to tell me.
3) I also have issues with the soundblaster in games such as fifa2005 the sounds sometimes stop and by just quitting and restarting it works. (the sound chip is disable)
4) What is strange is that my pc worked all night running memtest with no errors (11 hours) and the night before running prime95 (7hours) with absolutely no errors. I even tested the memory with a fsb at 250 with crap timing just to see if the meory stands the 1:1 ratio at 250 (i tried ht 4x fsb 250 *8 to be sure there wont be issues with the proc ) and everything works well but it seems my proco is becoming too hot with a voltage >1.525, so i cant make a 10*250. I though is was a Thermal paste problem and i reapplied Artic silver 5 but the prob is still here. I cant go above 11*220 is this normal ? 1.55 seems not a very high voltage and i find it so strange i have such temperature and heating problems, anyone as an idea?
Thanks a lot for reading and hope anyone could help me.
Welcome to Xtremesystems.org jeffstet.
Download this one http://www.cpuid.com/download/cpu-z-125.zip
then you see if it recongnize your cpu as Winchester(90nmn) or Newcastle(130nm).
Try ht ratio 3x for higher clocks. Yeah is a known problem with the temp, speedfan says my cpu is at 117C which isnt right of course :D Hope I could help you out with something.
thanks i used it already and cpuz tells me its a 0.13, but the last mem test version (1.4) says its a 0.09 and since voltage keep moving each time i reset it i had a doubt.
For the temp issue what is strange is that it seems that whem temp idle is around 37° everything runs fine and when it boots 48° i have freezes, so i think there is a real random temperature at startup even if the temperature reading is false.
