Problem with motherboard MSI 925XE

Luckily that is pretty easy with modern motherboards.

1. Remove power and unplug all devices hooked to computer.
2. Open case.
3. Write down the location and orientation of all wires connecting to old motherboard.
4. Disconnect all wires from the case that are plugged into old motherboard.
5. Uncrew the screws holding the motherboard in the case.
6. Carefully remove old motherboard.
7. Install new motherboard and secure it to the case (probably using the same screws as the old MB)
8. Refer to diagram you made earlier to plug in all the wires to the proper places in the new motherboard.
9. Check and make sure the new motherboard works before closing the case.
10. If everything is working correctly, close up the case and you are done.

Hi,
below is link for this board's specs.
http://msi.com/product/mb/K9MM-V.html#/?div=Detail

However windows 7 is not supported
you can in most cases use the vista driver. or visit each components website for any new support drivers they have.
the above link does describe Realtek as your audio and Lan and VIA as your chipset.
you should at least have the latest BIOS done prior to updating the drivers.

CHANGE MEMORY MODULE

the ms, 7xyz series is a relic
all that matters is the size of mobo, to case
ATX or microATX
some or most cases (not oem) do both sizes
and none told by you case , maker and model
but just looking there under mobo shows what screw stub holes are there for both. or not.
the power switch is just 2 pins and easy to rewire.
the manual on both cover all that but no case told.

Before you buy new memory.
Remove your system memory and clean both sides of the contacts of each DIMM with a drop or two of house hold alcohol onto a cotton swab. Do not touch the contacts after cleaning. Reseat the memory and boot the system.
Your MSI 925XE Neo Platinum uses the Award bios.
Click on the link to open bios beep codes descriptions; http://www.bioscentral.com/beepcodes/awardbeep.htm
The 925XE Neo Platinum MB,
Supports up to 4GB memory size.
Supports Dual channel DDR2 memory architecture.
Supports DDR2, 400/533MHz memory.
You can also test your current memory if you wish. You can download this free testing software; http://www.memtest.org/
Scroll down the site to just below the three screenshots. Memtest86+ V4.00 (22/09/2009).
You can create a bootable CD or floppy disk drive software that will test your current system memory.

Hope you find this helpful!
Cheers!

Kinda sounds like a short, have you made sure youre motherboard is screwed in with ground case screws? Ive done this one by mistake and got these same errors, also a fried board after a while. You also need ram in it as well before it will give a display, also if you have a second video car dinstalled you may have the monitor in the wrong video card slot, common mistake. If your bios is hosed then you will need to by a new board if you dont wanna solder a new bios chip to the board

Hi switchblade, Some of this will seem basic or even a rehash of what you?ve already done but please keep an open mind. The one thing I?ve learned over the years is never assume anything especially when things aren?t working like they?re supposed to. -The first thing I would do is to check each screw, card, connector and component you installed to make sure nothings being shorted out or is improperly connected. Common occurrences are screws touching capacitor or other component leads. -Check the power connectors to make sure everything is connected correctly and that all the contacts are still mounted in the plastic connector correctly. -Check the output on your power supply and verify it?s rated for your motherboard. It?s possible that whatever caused them to replace the motherboard could have been caused by a defective power supply or vice versa. -Make sure the motherboard is correctly grounded to the chassis per your instructions. Typically the mounting screws touch a grounding plane on the motherboard and in turn ground that to the chassis. If your using plastic mounting studs that might be a problem. -Verify the power switch is working correctly. -Make this as basic a machine as possible: remove and add in cards (except primary video card), remove all USB components, reduce the size of your memory (RAM) and if you have multiple hard drives remove all except your boot drive. -Try a more basic known good video card, a PCI if you have one. -Again whatever problem caused MSI to warranty replace your motherboard could have damaged your processor or memory. I would have expected a beep code but if you?ve gotten this far without resolving your problem we?re running out of possibilities. -If nothing changes can you tell us some more about the status of the computer or what led up to this? Did you just build it; just install a new part, power problems, anything? Let us know what you turn up and please don?t forget to rate the posting.
