ok, I thought mine was settled by switching from the two 4 pin to the 6 pin adaptor to the straight 6 pin connection. Still doing the same thing. I'm not sure but it did not happen with my MSI K8N-SLI Plat board, now with my ASUS, it's doing it. I had to switch board because my 3800+ proc...
I have the same issue. Also, display goes dead after about a day or two of being constantly on. System itself is okay because if I hit the Windows Key, up arrow, enter, enter, my system shuts down.
Any rate, I had the 6 pin adaptor provided but swaped it out with the one which came with my...
Hi all...
I switched from the MSI A8N Neo4 SLI Plat to this A8N-SLI Premium and so far, no major issues. I did have a 6 beep post boot, no video problem but think I resolved that. Only have one BFG 6800GT card (at the moument) but plugged in power into the EZ-Plug. Seemed to resolved the...
I returned the board for the ASUS board. I can tell you XP Pro SP2 showed the MultiProcessor, not the Uniprocessor I've seen with my older procs with single cores. As I stated before, Windows, Sisoft Sandra reported the multiprocs but showed or tested only one. It would also crash during...
BS how? That the 3800+ x2 E6 does not work with the board?
Okay, maybe I should have made my posting a little clearer. I spoke with an MSI Tech prior to my previous posting. The MSI tech stated there will be problems with the board and unsupported CPUs, listed on their site, such as the...
Okay, the official word is the AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ E4 and E6 procs, does not work with the MSI K8N Neo4 SLI Platinum. 4200+ and 4600+ E6 procs do not work with this board either. It was made clear it is not a mechinal issue or a board issue, rather a BIOS issue. They are working on a BIOS...
Memory serves me correctly, I have a Winchester core. Would it be in my best interest to get a RMA? I want the best for my money, this is my first major upgrade in 4 years. So please forgive me if I am sounding like a pest.
I am interested in overclocking next month, want to act now if I...
Sisoft Sandra runs all tests single core. I've looked into all options, cannot find the option to turn on test with dual procs. Although, the CPU/BIOS information reads the proc as "Type - Dual Core" "Model - AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+. Click on the drop down in the CPU &...
Yes, I did format/reinstall when I installed the board. It was the first thing I did after my first boot up. BIOS 3.7 shows as the current version available, on MSI site.
Anyone have problems with this board and the Athlon64 X2 3800+? Windows read it as a MultiProc but reads only one processor. I thought I had found the problem by turning off the Cool'N Quiet but that is not the case. All the up to date drivers are installed, AMD Athlon driver, 3.7 BIOS. My...
