Have you updated the BIOS of your motherboard? If not then do it first. Use MSI Live Monitor s/w u got in the CD with ur MoBo to c if u have the latest BIOS.

Only thing you can do is update your BIOS.This sud surely solve ur problem.If it does not,than it means that u need to change ur BIOS.If ur motherboard is under gurantee,better change the motherboard.

For more solution read the motherboard manual.

Ur using a very old version of Everest ... get atleast v.3 or above ... I don't ur mobo is detected incorrectly .. just the mobo ID maybe ..

BTW , ur RAM is not running i dual channel mode ... u have put it in alternate slots ??? If so then put them in consecutive slots ...

Update your BIOS dude.Its OLD,its dated from June 2006.3600+ Brisbane has launched recently.
Updating the BIOS should solve your problem.You can get the BIOS from MSI website.And update using the Flash Utility in DOS mode,thats the best way to do so
