If I shut down my PC to Standby or Hibernate, and the setting in the BIOS is
on AUTO STR or POS the system will not restart.
What happens is it switches on then off, on then off and continues to do
this. The only way to stop it is to erase the CMOS with the JBAT1 Jumper.

Everything was fine until last Sunday. I have a K7T266 Pro2 with an
Athlon XP 2000+ and a dual-boot Win98 se/WinXP Pro SP-1 system.  Or
had, rather. Last Sunday, all of a sudden WinXP crashed and then
refused to boot. When I gave up, I tried repairing XP by loading

Hi,
I've comitted a mistake. I went to the "control panel" => "install/uninstall

MS-6178
Bus Clock: 100 megahertz
BIOS: Award Software International, Inc. 6.00 PG 08/07/00
With this Mobo I am using CPU, 750 megahertz  Pentium III.

I have had this problem with several motherboards but am usually able to
get it working.  I install XP, then install SP1, then Nvidia drivers.
Everything works except that USB 2.0 ports show up in device manager as
unknown devices.  USB 2. is enabled in the bios.  I then loaded ...

A closer look at MSI's Master2 Far website
http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=K8T_Master2_FAR&class=mb
suggests that they only support 333MHz for Opteron, and 400MHz for
Athlon64 MX. That doesn't make sense to me- why would a motherboard be

I have downloaed the latest bios from the MSI website for my K7D Master, but when I try to flash it, it hangs when it's about to start flashing.  Following the instructions and booting from a floppy, it comes up with the name of the data file to flash from, but at the botttom it ...

Just built up a new system with K7N2 Delta-L and Antec's Sonata Quiet
case.  Main problem is a bit high system temps.  PCAlert and Sandra
report system temp @ 40C and CPU temp @ 55C when idle.  I have a Athlon
2800 retail w/factory fan.

I've been having this motherboard since last summer, but i've had some
rrandom crashes here and there. What i'd like to know is, what basic
drivers should I use with this motherboard? Are those two drivers the
ones I need to get?

The thermal sensor that resides under the CPU just rests loosely between the
motherboard and the bottom of the CPU in the opening of the socket.
My question is how accurate can it be if its only measuring the air
temperature?

I have a PC that is fitted with an MSI K7T266 Pro2 motherboard. Today I
finished installing an Asetek Waterchill CPU cooler. When I booted up the
system again the BIOS complained that the CPU fan was not running (Duh!!) and
suggested to shutdown. Although I get the option to boot ...

I have a pc based on an MSI K7N2 motherboard bought approximately a year
ago.  It has the latest BIOS and I am running Win XP Pro with SP1.  I
have just tried to add an external Maxtor 200 Gb IDE drive and bought an
external USB 2.0 drive case which appears to have a Genesys Logic

I have a K8T Neo FIS2R (version 1.0) motherboard, initially with version
1.4 BIOS. After flashing to the latest 1.7, my optical mouse light stays
on after I switch off.  If I pull the power plug, it goes out of course,
but it doesn't come back on when I plug it back in.

Problem with KT6 Delta FIS2R motherboard (m/n: MS-6590, PCB 2.0, BIOS
v5.5)
Ever since I upgraded to BIOS v5.5 from v5.4, I've been getting a POST
error when I boot:

When I install some drivers (e.g. WinTV usb, nVidia video capture) on my
K8T Neo FIS2R, a Local Area Connection is created. Does this happen to
anyone else here? It seems bizarre to me, and leads to network problems.
