I have a MSI 7091 Ver 2 Motherboard. The entire IO panel is not working and I cannot get into the BIOS to enable USB Legacy support. I have heard there is a PCB fuse that protects the IO panel and wou

2004/5 junky and zero support mobo post. NO OS TOLD At all of VAST not one tiny clue and is needed use a USB port unless USB is dead in BIOS but not told that either.. do not flash your bios or you will brick he PC, you heard wrong, as is normal 1/2 what you read on the internet are pure lies or full evil. there is no fuse. all we know is this MSI 7091 Ver 2 (old) 2004 Msi ended all support now, zero results there. nothing else, no PC told at all what is in the case a secret. no PSU told no if 4pin and 24pin power are connected to mobo. keyboard USB dead? that it in BIOS not told that. this MOBO has no VGA rear port at all, it is iGPU free, has none. so BIOS is dead due to no video card installed and if has one installed none told, and some are dead lacking 12vdc aux power not connected to the GPU card directly, oops failure #1 915P chip set relic MOBO pentium 4 old dog CPU the ICH6R chipset runs the rear USB ports even in bios full time. the keyboard needs to be connected to USB2, port 1. P4 has no igpu on the die/chip, so none there, and no vga port there. 1: coin cell is dead this old. AND ALL MOBO JUMPERS SET RIGHT.. 2: all via lan chip dead, for newer OS ,VIA IS zero support. 3:BIOS only works with GPU card, usb rear + keboard 4: cpu correct type p4, and no bent pins bought off fleabay. 5: 1 stick of DDR1 RAM. 1GB MAX PER STICK, 6: MOBO JPW1. MUST HAVE PSU POWER HERE.+ATX1 7: POWER ON NOW, AND BIOS WILL WORK 8: relic MSI mobe only PS2 keyboards work for BIOS hotkeys. BIOS HOT key (setup) some use ,<DEL> key on keypad (numlock off !!!!) or needs this keyboard 2004. . or PS2 + F2 key. (or F2 ,f1, f2) dance, wild but is prompted. the only manual on the web for his old dog does not cover bios at all, lost in the sands of time. it. P4 is year 2000 to 2008 , 915p is 2004 so is this. thing a relic and hard too find MSI facts this junk. zero support means junk in my book. ms-72xx here, the PC prompt you clearly and then tells F11 is boot menu, last at end of POST v1 not 2, v2 docs rare more. http://msi-ftp.de/Manuals/Medion8383XLmitMS-7091.pdf 7200-undefined-undefined-0.jpg

My 845GV board doesnot powerup

Hi , the cold restarts seem highly likely to be a failing power supply unit and considering the age of the system as indicated by chipset model , I would be confident in suggesting a psu replacement would resolve the immediate issue. ( psu's loose efficiency over time ) As usual there could be other factors . However also your total installed ram memory as noted being 256MB is grossly underspec for functional running of late release version application programs - so i would highly recommend increasing ram memory to at least 2GB , but 4GB would be better .( you can then also increase shared video memory if using onboard video for better video performance, if useful) But depending upon resources of running tasks and your acceptable speed to complete a task , before spending money on sub-system upgrades, you should consider the benefit of a computer upgrade as possibly a more cost effective solution. * i800 series chipset era : your noted ram memory 256MB - typical 16MB-64MB shared memory for onboard video - Ram memory manager allocated free space ( for user launching new apps) say - 60MB = not much for the operating system and starup applications , so excessive program pages are allocated to the page file, located on the sloooooow hdd , hence for you i imagine an almost non-functional computer

My MSI U100 Netbook won't charge. I purchased

Yes the AC Cord does go bad , you can also look at the power jack at the back of the Laptop to see if it is loose when you plug it in. I always start with the plug they are usually cheaper than a battery.

Ram problems...msi k8n neo4 platinum

You will need to manually set the ram speed, in the BIOS to 333MHz as the board does not support 400MHz in dual channel mode. Also, the slot lay out is every other slot, so you need to put one brand of RAM in slots one and three, then the other brand in slots 2 and 4. The 3GB maybe incomparability in using two different brands. I had this exact board and it was very finicky with RAM. I know DDR is expensive, so you may be stuck with 3GB, but I'd expect some errors. You see, each brand may have different timings the old BIOS cannot pair up between the brands, causing a conflict and causing you to lose out on 1GB of RAM. Check the manual pages 2-7 and 2-8 for memory configurations.you can get the manual from here: https://us.msi.com/Motherboard/support/K8N_Neo4_Platinum_PCB_1.0#down-manual

Al iniciar o reiniciar con

The first thing would be to uninstall the Wireless device and software. I would then look for a BIOS update for the mother board it may not be set up to work with a USB wireless device as it is an older model. You may have better luck using a PCI wireless card directly on the Motherboard. Translated: Lo primero ser?a desinstalar el dispositivo y el software inal?mbricos. Luego buscar?a una actualizaci?n de la BIOS para la placa madre que podr?a no estar configurada para funcionar con un dispositivo inal?mbrico USB ya que es un modelo anterior. Puede tener mejor suerte usando una tarjeta inal?mbrica PCI directamente en la placa base.
