Microstar motherboard MS-6701

[Athlete]

I've tried searching for this motherboard, but cannot find any details about it.

The pc it is in is a Medion.

What I am particulary searching for is how to upgrade the memory, I know it takes 333mhz ddr memory but I was wondering do you have to change any jumper settings to increase the memory from 128mb to 512mb.

The phoenix award bios recognises the 512mb but once I reboot I get a continous beep sound.

Faulty memory? any ideas?

Hi all,

currently the MSI MS-6701 is listed as unsolved. It is a mainboard that has been manufactured for Medion, a big system integrator for computer discounters.

The Medion model name for this board is MD-5000 or MD5000. It is used in Medion's latest PC Titanium MD8008 XL for example.

I just recently found a link to the manual, and would like to share it here to spread it a little wider:

_http://www.checkmark.dk/sa/download/drivers/medion/motherboard/manual/MD5000%20Mainboard.pdf

Note that for some browsers the "%20" might be problematic, so don't give up if you got a "file not found" - in that case your browser has just cut off everything after "%20".

The manual does not cover much for people interested in overclcking, but tells you everything about jumpers and connectors, which is still much better than nothing !

Have fun !

Hope this helps....I have just downloaded the pdf file, if you can't download it.....PM with a place to upload it to you....
