Re: Ms-6570 K7n2g

Stupid possibility: bad BIOS? Or a corrupted data in FlashROM.

The IC FlashROM can die or a range of data get corrupted without a explanation, it is rare but possible.
It is little hard to test it without proper hardware ( IC eprom-flash programmer like WILLEM with hub-lpc adapter to 3.3V flash I suppose needed ). Or with another same working motherboard to test if it is ok or not.

I'm glad to know that it worked well. I supposed this -5V hang problem was restricted to me and my motherboard only and I done this mod to myself.

I never thought this could affected other owners. Well I hope this BIOS can help others too, I will publish in my blog so google can index it. I don't know if index this forum.

Re: partial success K7T266 Pro2

Without this C37mod, if you try to use any Tbred or Barton you will get 4 RED LEDs on D-Bracket.

Another thing, don't try to remove C37 with any sharp tool as some users had done in MSI forum. This procedure can damage under it.

Re: partial success K7T266 Pro2



I have a modded BIOS for this -5V hang, I just need to find where it is in my CDs.

To run Thoroughbred Athlon or Barton in this board you need to do the known C37 capacitor fix, ie, remove it with soldering iron with a lot of care.
