Hi,
There could be two reasons for the same,
1. The coin cell battery is drained and need a replacement
2. The motherboard software (BIOS) has gone bad , would require an update .

The following link is the BIOS update link for the motherboard. Before update make sure , all external peripherals except the keyboard and mouse has to be disconnected . Also verify the the existing version of the BIOS

Please be informed that any Driver software depends upon the PC make, Motherboard type and Operating System. You need to know all the three information's to do get going.

Please find the Driver software's of your Audio and video inside the installation disk provided with the PC at the time of purchase. As you have not mentioned your PC make I am unable to give you the direct download link. However you can download the same by visiting the website of the company that manufactured the PC.

Even here you need to be careful to download the correct software for your PC. You need to be exact with the PC make and Model number and the OS that you are using.

To install just Double clock on the driver setup.exe file and go on clicking 'Next' until you get the 'Finish' option and restart the PC.

Good day..!!you can try this website for you to get the right driver of your motherboard. http://www.msi.com/product/mb/K8MM-V.html

Check the power supply of your computer if it is giving power.Maybe the power supply is broken.

Hi,

Here is the main support page for your motherboard. You should be able to find what you need here. The manual is found under Download.

Thanks for using Fixya.

You or your friends need to switch of raid in BIOS.
Harder way: make a floppy with raid driver (wich situated on the disk with moterboard drivers)
Pirate way: there is copies of WIndoWS with installed drivers for almost all raid controllers

Sorry, I can't find a color diagram. But check page 2 of the HP support manual, this shows all the jumpers and board connectors. You can download the manual from the link below:

http://bizsupport2.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00358730/c00358730.pdf

You can download the audio device drivers from MSI WEB supportsite, select your model motherboard to download :- http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=downloadindex

Does the monitor say "Check connection" or similar? If so, then the plug is loose. If you have a graphics card on your motherboard, then tighten the connection between the plug and port. If it still doesn't help, this might be a problem with your graphics card. Take it to the nearest computer shop and let them change the graphics card and see if the display works. If so, the you have a faulty graphics card

Hi dharmen_shah,
I see that you need to install Windows XP on you Dekstop with an MSI Motherboard k8mm-V.
I have another desktop using the same Motherboard, there are 3 options installing Windows XP on the machine.

1. Using an IDE Optical Drive
2. Using a SATA Optical Drive "not a common installation process on this motherboard" since you will need to install the SATA rivers first to be able to use your SATA ODD
3. Using a USB Flash Drive

See steps below for each installation type.
*Using an IDE Optical Drive*

• If you have your Windows XP CD insert it on the Disc Drive restart the system as soon as the system restarts keep on tapping F11 this will bring you to the Boot menu.
• Once in the Boot Menu screen select your Optical Drive, it may say dvd/cd or ODD, select this and press enter. Note: windows may restart during the installation if it says press any key to boot to cd do not press anything anymore leave it will do everything on it's own unless prompted for any user information like a computer name date and time.
• You will see on the screen Boot to cd: then it will show "press any key to boot to cd" press Enter or any key this will boot from your cd Windows XP.
• Then you will see inspecting your hardware for configuration, once it boots to your Windows XP cd you will see a blue screen Loading up drivers and stuff for the installation of Windows XP.
• Next will be the installation of Windows XP itself, just follow the prompt it is very easy to follow and it will give you all the details and what buttons to click on.
• Note: Select Quick Format (NTFS) this will be faster reformatting your Hard Drive before installation.

*Using SATA Optical Disc Drive*

• You will need a 1.4 floppy disc to be able to do this.
• If you have a 1.4 Floppy Drive you will also need to download the SATA driver from the MSI website.
• Let us disregard this option since I believe you do no have a 1.4 Floppy Disc Drive and no one uses that or has a 1.4 Floppy Drive anymore on their machines.

*Using a USB Flash Drive*

• To be able to use a USB Flash Drive for the installation of Windows XP your USB Flash Drive should at least be 1GB or 2GB, 1GB will be enough since windows XP only uses at least 7++gb of disc space for the installer size.
• Using you USB Flash Drive you will need to copy the whole contents of your Windows XP Cd into your USB Flash Drive, don't worry this will be bootable just make sure that you copy everything from the disc into the USB Flash Drive.
• Once you have copied Windows XP on your USB Flash Drive insert it to one of your USB ports on the machine then restart the computer.
• Restart the system as soon as the system restarts keep on tapping F11 this will bring you to the Boot menu.
• This will be the same as using your Windows XP cd but instead you will need to select USB in the Boot Menu then press enter. on the installation steps it will be the same as installing using a disc.
• Note: Select Quick Format (NTFS) this will be faster reformatting your Hard Drive before installation.
• Windows may restart during the installation and using a USB Flash Drive will be different at this point because it will boot directly to the USB, Once it restarts and may repeat the installation all over, to prevent this as soon as the system begins to restart from the installation go and keep on tapping "Delete" once it restarts this will bring you to the BIOS screen press F9 to set it to defaults then press F10 to save and exit this will restart again.
• Once it restarts after setting the BIOS to defaults let the system boot on its own it will then show you a screen asking what windows to install the first thing highlighted will be the installation that was halted earlier just press enter then it will show you the windows installation page and will continue on it's own.

This is based on my own experience since I have an older Desktop that has the same Motherboard, I hope that I have given you all the options possible to installing your windows XP on your Motherboard k8mm-v.
Have a nice day,

http://majorgeeks.com/DriverMax_d5260.html Win7/Vista/XP . DriverMax is a new tool that allows you to download the latest driver updates for your computer. No more searching for rare drivers on discs or on the web or inserting one installation CD after the other. Just create a free account, log in, and start downloading the updates that you need.
You can also export all your current drivers (or just the ones that work ok) to a folder or a compressed file. After reinstalling Windows you will have everything in one place!
Most of the situations when Windows is running slower are caused by faulty driver installations. Windows stores all versions of older drivers just in case you want to go back; sometimes it messes up older versions with more recent ones. The Export Wizard will only export the drivers you select by copying the needed files to a folder or a compressed ZIP file.
After reinstalling Windows all drivers will be back in place in less than 5 minutes - sparing you of searching, inserting disc after disk and losing precious time. The Import Drivers wizard allows you to install all the drivers that you exported earlier. The entire operation might take up to 5-10 minutes.
Just one single computer restart will be required after all drivers are reinstalled!
DriverMax is able to display a complete report of all drivers (versions, release dates) installed on your system. This feature can also be very useful when you want to analyze the differences between the drivers installed on different machines. Hope this helps

You didn't mention your operating system, so you will need to select it....
