no need to reply thats how I feel:mad:

Well, the people who have great sucess with MSI far out weigh the people who have installation problems. If you post a specific problem maybe someone can help you. Just saying they suck is not being fair to a great M/B company.

OK you wanted to know Hmmmmm?

:burn:
frist of all It wasnt a Instalation problem The borad ran smooth 4, 4 MONTHS Now just read this PIn head told you no replays and un till MSI makes Good on there Products that THEY claimed is so GOOD . So I refuse to relinkwish the right to Publicly denowce them.

MSI is a good Motherboard stright up BUT (there it is.The perverible B U T)
MSI is a ****ty Company that well, wright/have writen
any thing to sell there product to the Public for a few bucks
Profit. the end. I started o/cing this board in the 6 mts of ownership. After they refused to RMA there own PRODUCT(Sound chip locking up)
I beat the **** out of mineM/B that is. I Killed 2 Maxtor 7200rpm 20 gig HD, with HD fans. Blow out the sound chip. Blow CPU fan relay on the M/B K7T Pro 2A 6330- 750 sok A Unclocked never got it over 800 YET still working on that as you can c I was trying to blow it up
Well its still working ,the borad still o/ced to 788 1.85V
TNT 2 for VID 3.45V micron PC 133 case 2
IF i try to lower the system it crashs go figure NOT A HAPPY CAMPER WITH MSI NEVER WOULD GIVE ME AN RMA TO GET A NEW BORAD after repetedly e- mailing phone calls even a visit to there Miami HQ. THEY JUST DISCONTINUED IT TO MANY COMPLAINTS FROM CUSTS.i guess NOT yelling at anyone in per tictulare they ****ED me off had this proplem 4 mts new Would NOT give me an RMA nor would they exstange the borad at there Miami office South America HQs. (So whats up pin head get the point they REFUSED there own warrenty thats why they S**K)
just for the recard
(Dont take the word Pin Head to heart thats what I use with my kids when they **** me off )

Well I tried to decipher your message and I could not make heads or tails of it. It sure sounds like you have bad luck with many products and not just the M/B. If you have chosen to not accept help from us, that is fine. I do insist that you take "MSI sucks" out of your sig. This is not approiate for this forum.

I wish you luck with your Asus, maybe you can get that one to work. Although remember that when you overclock your M/B, it voids your warranty. RMA is not an option.

was in the middle of composeing it after I posted it .srry
now as per what i was saying
Before i even oced the K7T ProA
6330 the sound chip locked up.I would reboot it would still lock up
That is when MSI frist Refused to RMA the board.
The hard drives I trashed do to messing around in the bios after
the mother board lost a HD and showed only one HD in stead of 2
I did a HD find in the BIOS that is when I or the board lock up the hard drives.
The Whole reason I'am mad as hell at MSI They made a product. they gave it a warrenty they told us in wrighting if we was to Oc even in fussy logic that the warrenty was Voided. I do read and understand things
They Stright out Would not let me even send the board back
ok so they stink
:confused:

Are you mad because MSI is going by their policy by not allowing a return of an OCed motherboard? If that's correct, then you have to accept the consequences of overclocking.

I don't mean to flame you, but your threads will get more attention if write more clearly. If you can't write well, just use short and simple sentances wenever possible. It also helps to read over your posts before you post them.

While I'm at it,
Welcome to the forums!!

in the past 5 yrs never did I have a company like ths size of MSI treat me so poorly I guess there on a hit and run operation hit the wallet the run like hell any where some puplicly declaires MSI as a great company
I will do the same by declairing the other how lousy of a company

My bad about misreading when you OCed the motherboard. The best thing to do would have been to either get PCI sound card or keep pressing them for the reason thay refused your RMA. Since you overclocked it, you've got no chance for an RMA (even if their original reason was BS), and the best you can hope for if that your sound card works OK when you get it Mon.
I can't tell if the motherboard or some mistake of yours killed the HDs etc., but you should do something in either case. If you think that the motherboard killed your hardware, then I recommend you use the bat/windows/dump installation method; bat it through a window into a dumpster. If you don't think that it was the motherboard or some other component's fault, then you shouldn't be putting together a computer. It's your money that you're spending, but I always hate to see a fellow overclocker waste money.
BTW, if I've misread anything, just call me on it and I'll be happy to correct it.

my board, my original board had a bad southbridge, i called msi, ran some tests, then had me send my bard in, a week and an half later, i had a brand new board on my door step, a new revision too, i love msi, my next mobo will definitly be an msi. they have great add on programs, good raid, good overclocking, great bios, high capacity for ram, wonderful stability, etc....i suggest you rethink your actions since you did overclock the board, THEY didnt overclock the board for you....why make them pay for YOUR choices...you could have waited to overclock till your warranty was up....then do whatever you want...think about everything you have done, before you go bashing a wonderful company like msi...thank you

Hate to see that you havent really had a good experience with MSI products. Iapologize for what I am about to say. I dont understand what you are posting. It doesnt make sense but if you want to make a decent moan about your MSI experience then first dont put MSI sucks as your title (especially in the MSI forum) people dont like hearing bad things about there MOBO manuf. Especially since many of us have only had good experiences with there boards and MSI customer support.

It hardly matters now. His last post was an the tenth of March, and he's probably forgotten about this strange place, where people type coherently and reread their posts before posting.

I've had probs also, k7Master mobo.

I will call the FTC if MSI doesn't get their act together!!! I had to send my mobo in then wait 2 wks while they tested it. I've done this twice! My system timer went out this last time! If they don't send me a brand new board instead of a refurb, I will take action!

BTW, I have never had any probs with Abit or Asus.


That's my 2cents worth!
