*Problem Description:

 

System Clock (&BIOS clock also) go too fast: sometimes 10sec for each min, other times when reboot 5 seconds for each minute...This is happen in both OS (win & linux).

In windows i can see how the clock moves 4 "seconds" too fast and the five is a little more slow (irregular clock). In lnx seems that the "seconds" re much more regulate (without pauses) but go too fast also...

In the bios screen the same problem can be observed

With early bios 7-2004 happens the same...

Problems with that:

Music play too fast with xmms in lnx 4 example, & other programs run bad.

4 minimize this problem i have to low fsb @165Mhz then the system clock go fast but "only" a few minutes at day. In comparison with my previous systems that this happens in order of months not days...

Note: If i put fsb @ 165 in bios, system goes at 165, if i put 167, 168 or 169 system goes 167, 168 or 169, etc, but when i put at 166 (default) system goes at 167.5 --->1840 (1833 default...)

 

If u need more data: email-me (or tell me with a post)

 

Sorry 4 my english & thanks in advance.

Your PSu is a lil too weak for the mobo, minimum requirement for these mobo's are about a 450W.....its possible its this that causing some of the probs.........bios running fast and slow is sometimes down to a dead or dying cmos battery, try changing it out with a new one......

Battery seems correct but sometimes Vbat moves to 2.2V like "deeppeaks"...but anyway I have had similar Voltages with other systems & the clock was correct in them...

 

I think remenber (Motherboard English Manual) that the min PSU 4 this mobo is 250W with default values & few device attached. Like reference:

(4 Overclock [isnt this case]: http://newstuff.orcon.net.nz/wCalc.html )

[djalma]

When i see the picture above (gkrellm), i remenber one thing. I have attached to mainboard 3 fans: 1 cpu fan & 2 case fan (front & back). Well, the cpu fan & the 2º case fan are detected with programs like sensors in lnx & equivalent in windows, but 1 case fan isnt detected. I tried change the fan divisor but nothing happend...

CPU: 2678 RPM (min = 1328 RPM, div = 4)

temp3: +25.0°C (high = +120°C, hyst = +115°C) sensor = thermistor

 

PD: This fan is detected when i put it in other system...

[red930]

The MB only has sensors for two fans,the 3rd one won't be detected.

 

Be carefull about what fans you plug into the MB headers,I only run 2 40mm fans off the MB fan headers and my HS fan only has the monitoring wire plugged in

[djalma]

The fans re directly attached at 3 mobo fan connectors.

 

W83627HF/F Data sheet:

Hardware Monitor Functions ( Only for W83627HF)

 

• 5 VID input pins for CPU Vcore identification

• -......etc,etc

• 3 fan speed monitoring inputs

http://216.239.59.104/search?q=cache:5EFCh...+w83627hf&hl=es

 

?????? The 3 fan speed monitor isnt implemented in the mobo??? or is my mobo?

[red930]

I guess I should find out just what you are using

 

http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showpost.p...143&postcount=2

 

Edit: That spec sheet or whatever your using still doesn't overcome the fact that I don't know anybody on the DFI NF2 chipset that gets more than 2 fan speed sensor readings.

Well, it is all that i wanna know about fan speed sensors. The confirmation that i'm not the onlyone that has this "problem". I know a friend of mine that has got similar problem with a abit nf7 but i needed confirm that becouse u can see in the link above, datasheet of winbond seems clear... Thanks.

 

On the otherhand the main problem 4 me go on been the irregular clock signal (title post) & i'll be thankful if some dfi person in charge post about it...

 

Sorry 4 my very bad english again XD...

[MrToad]

Have a look @ this thread:

 

http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9340

 

Disgracefully it doesn't contain the solution, but who knows, it might give you an idea that leads us there...

 

On the other hand the workaround works, at least for me.

 

1) Boot into OS. If the clock goes mad syncrhonize clock with Internet time server.

 

2) Inmediately after sync shut down system. (no reboot, plain shut down)

 

3) Cold boot and enter bios setup.

 

4) Change a couple of settings (I allways change the FastWrites status Disable>Enable>Disable and then go into the System Health screen and press repeatedly the up or down arrow to force refresh)

 

5) Save and exit setup.

 

6) Boot into OS

 

Don't ask me why this fixes the problem. I have not the slightest idea... And I have given up, it works for me, fair enough.

 

Makes any sense? no. I know that if you choose exit without saving it doesn't work... even if there are no changes to save, if you don't save on exit it doesn't fix anything.

 

Maybe is just a matter of faith. Maybe I should ask the Vatican for a permanent solution, or pilgrimnate to Mecca, or even better, build a little shrine to the Baron Samedi, sacrifice a chicken, pour it's blood all over it and add some quality rum and sweets to the mix.

Duder you been hangin w/the soundx98,you two would get along just fine.

You know he would add to your ritual some quality party favors,

 

Bonfire,costumes,loud music,chanting,only thing he's changed is now it's stuffed animals(burn w/prettier colors.

Hmmm. I wouldn't mess the Baron Samedi, costumes and Heavy Metal. The result could be extremely... unpredictable.

 

At some point he could find it funny... And I wouldn't dare to call upon his sense of humour.

 

There was this old joke... "Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side"... "and why did the dead child cross the road? Because he was stapled to the chicken's back"... Guess who was holding the stapler...

[djalma]

XDDD funny joke XDD I dont speak english too well but i understand this joke XD

 

BTW, the same exact configuration was working flawlessly with an Atlon XP 2600+ (333 FSB) before the CPU Upgrade, and reverting back to the old CPU makes the problem banish.

 

VideoMate TV Gold Plus II (PCI Tuner) & Antec SL350P Power Supply go well with infinity & xp2600???

 

I m questioning about that because i have a pci tuner and a 300W PS also...in which pci slot are the pci tuner?

 

In this moment i put the fsb @ 165 & the system clock go fast in order a couple of minutes at day... something is something but anyway ill try ur method & thanks 4 ur post...

 

Sorry 4 bad english again & again XD...
