A video card issue isn't going to crash 32 bit bridge - is it??!!

So I'm having the same occasional 32 bit bridge crashes as everyone else, then I simply replace an intermittently malfunctioning fan on my Nvidia GT120 video card, and immediately I have 32 bit bridge crashes gone wild! As in a few seconds after start up of any Logic project that used 32 bit plugs. Entirely crippling.
Just a coincidence regarding the video card / fan ya think?
Everything else seems to be functioning fine on the system.

Ahem. SORRY for the false alarm blabbering.... this episode turns out to be just another of my usual dufus-ish stunts.
When reconnecting stuff after installing that fan, a USB cable to a Line 6 Gear Box interface that serves as a dongle was left unpulgged. THAT was my problem.
NEVERMIND.

  • Video Card Issue? Seems atypical.

    2012 Macbook Pro 15" Mountain Lion   Bootcamp Win 7 Pro.  While idle in Windows, screen went to gray and fans went high gear.  Goes to gray on reboot after Windows startup logo.  Goes to gray after initial spinning wheel on Mac side.  In Mac Safemode, after the loading of the progress bar, the screen cycles through about 3 seconds of fast moving lines and distortion then goes to a gray screen with hard to see verticle pinkish lines.  BUT the computer still boots into Windows safemode with Networking and works fine, so this does not seem to be the dreaded 2012 video card issue.  Am stumped!

    Welcome to the forum!
    What machine and OS are we discussing here to begin with?

  • Two video cards issue

    Any fix for the "Hardware cannot render at the requested size and depth" when having two video cards issue?

    Now, the strange thing is: after a few initial issues one of the macs is doing fine. The second one, on the contrary, is a nightmare. Finalcut gives a green screen of death and hangs up suddenly while performing simple operations (like dropping a clip on the timeline).
    I'm thinking of trying to replace the two video cards with an older single dual display card, and giving up the fancy lcd monitors (that i bought at vast cost), at least until apple issues an upgrade that adresses the two video card problem. <
    If the machines are mechanically equal, it's obviously not the cards. Although you can only be absolutely certain if you swap the cards between machines and see if the green screen issue follows one or both cards.
    However, that new LCD display and card combination doesn't have much time in the pipeline so there could be other issues and you're doing the beta testing for all of us. Blaming the reseller is pointless; no one can keep track of all of these issues. We only find out about them only because of reported failures.
    You should research the "green screen" here on the forum. I do not recall if there are display or graphics cards issues associated with it. That seems unlikely. IIRC, it appears to be a QT issue.

  • Video Card issues in WinXP - Left 4 Dead

    Just wanted to see if anyone was having issues like I'm seeing in these two pics.
    This first pics shows what appear to be polygon regions appearing out of no where.
    http://i44.tinypic.com/2v146ep.jpg
    And this 2nd pic shows spikes that appear mostly out of characters but on some objects as well.
    http://i44.tinypic.com/vqhafk.jpg
    Usually when I start playing everything is fine but after a 20min or so they will start to appear. Changing some video settings in the game (such as anti-aliasing or resolution) will usually make them disappear for a few minutes but they will then re-appear. My best guess is that this is due to the video card overheating as it doesn't happen right away, but that's just a guess. I tried installing 'speedfan' to increase the fan speed but it does not seem able to control the speed on the video card.
    Also, I only have the drivers that have come with the bootcamp installation. On the forums it seems that it is recommended not to install other versions of the drivers so I have not at this point.
    I'm running bootcamp (windows xp 32bit) on my MacPro 10.5.5 / 4GB ram (quad core Xenon) with the ATI-X1900. I have the latest 2.1 bootcamp installed. The game runs perfectly beyond these issues, although I do get the occasional stutter or audio repeat.
    I don't have any of these issues on TF2.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on a possible solution? or does anyone know of a way to control the fan speeds in Windows? In OSX I use smcFanControl to keep the machine a little cooler.
    PS. I also heard that some of the ATI-X1900 cards had issues. Can anyone confirm this? If this is the case, can anyone recommend another card for my MacPro? I do occasionally get video card issues in OSX too while doing 3d work.
    Thanks for any help!

    Upon inspection of the card it is totally loaded with dust. I found this article:
    http://macsaregreat.com/?p=63
    which has some pics and this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1265166&start=0&tstart=0
    which discusses many issues as well with the X1900 and Leopard. I first started seeing issues with the card during my 3d work after I installed Leopard.
    I'm off to the computer store to pick up some compressed air to try to clean that vent now. I already use smcFanControl already, before using it I was getting card errors every day.
    Thanks again for the info regarding the dust on that card.

  • My 27" imac won't boot in normal mode. The screen stays white. I have upgraded to Yosemite. However, the computer does boot in safe mode. Could this be a virus related issue or possibly a video card issue?

    My 27" iMac will not boot in normal mode. The screen stays white. The computer will boot in safe mode. Could this be virus related or is it possibly an issue with my video card. Before this happened, my computer screen was flashing weird things and the computer would unexpectedly power down.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return  three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Video card issue

    I am currently running Photoshop CS5 and my video card is an ATI Radeon HD5400, when I open Photoshop and check the prefrences I see the graphics card listed and Enable OpenGL Drawing is ticked. However as soon as I open an image or new document, and check the prefrences (performance) the GPU settings are greyed out, I have downloaded the latest drivers for the card (as at 13 December 2011). Prior to opening the initial image I have gone to the advanced settings in the GPU settings and changed to basic, this had no effect!, everything works fine in PS except the GPU functions, any help wopuld be much appreciated.

    Hm, I got mixed results.
    Catalyst 11.12 seems to support OpenGL okay for Photoshop on my video card, and my own apps seem to work fine with it.
    But...
    I did manage to get Photoshop to drop out of OpenGL mode during editing under some conditions...  The checkbox was still checked in the Edit - Preferences - Performance dialog, but the display of the open document actually reverted to GDI operation.  What I normally do to test is select the Zoom Tool and click and hold the left mouse button.  If the screen zooms in smoothly, OpenGL is active.
    Thing is, in EVERY case where I could reproduce this behavior, I opened an image through Camera Raw.
    In EVERY case where I DIDN'T open an image through Camera Raw (even the very SAME image I had opened before, which I had also saved as a PSD), I could NOT get Photoshop to drop out of OpenGL.
    Having updated Camera Raw to 6.6 just yesterday, and for that matter having taken about a dozen Windows Updates, as well as updating the ATI Catalyst drivers to 11.12, things may be a bit muddled.  Plus, I'm not sure whether going through these same gyrations might have done the same thing before.
    More testing is needed.

  • X58 PRO won't boot (memory or video card issue???)

    Hi all,
    this is my first message here.
    I have recently bought a X58 PRO motherboard to which I have connected the following devices: one HD, one DVD, the CPU (i7 950), one Video Card (GeForce 6600 pci-express) and three DDR3 modules from Corsair (named CMT6GX3M3A2000C8). According to Corsair website the modules CMT6GX3M3A2000C8 run on thie X58 PRO.
    I have turned on the system, but the screen remains black and the motherboard issues an intermittent buzz sound.
    Besides:
    The led close to the pci-express (where the video card is connected) is on.
    The 5 CPU leds are all turned on.
    The led close to the memory socket is off.
    As far as I know, usually the intermittent buzz means that the motherboard doesn't recognize either the RAM or the video card, but I don't know if the buzz is different case by case (can be buzz be different according to the issue?) and in the manual I didn't find a troubleshotting chapter.
    Is there a way which allow me to better identify where the issue would be (in memory or in Video Card... or something else)?
    I have not tested neither the memory nor the video card on another system, thus I don't know if one of them is faulty.
    Can anyone please help me?
    many thanks in advance!
    Lorenzo

    Quote from: Bernhard on 27-April-11, 16:06:04
    Do a CMOS clear>>Clear CMOS Guide<<
    Only insert one mem module. Check all your power connections to the board/s again that they are secure. You may want to reseat your CPU and check carefully that all the contact pads on the CPU do have imprints.
    Ok, I'll try it this evening!
    In the meanwhile, I thank you.

  • Help!  Video card issues- Slow during games

    Hey everyone, so heres my problem. I just got a brand new mbp 13" with 4 gigs ram with the new battery and everything. I have the game monkey island and spore on my mac. I also have windows xp installed on the other partition of my hard drive. I just need windows for one piece of software I use that I accidentally bought for my pc that died so now I'm stuck running it on my mac in windows. I also have modern warfare 2 on the windows side. Up until a couple days ago all the games were running really great, however yesterday something popped up on my windows saying something about malware (ughhh) and then call of duty on the windows side was running completely sluggish and when I restarted the computer in mac and tried to run spore or monkey island both of them are running slow too. What is weird is that it is only sluggish when running these games, never when watching movies or anything else that requires a video card. Could I have got a virus thats also affecting my mac os. Could this be a hardware issue? I'm just not sure. Would appreciate any help

    If you got a virus on your Windows partition, that in itself wouldn't affect Mac OS X partition directly. If you have a Windows partition you should take all the usual Windows related measures to ensure your system is protected against Virus/ Trojans/ Malware etc by installing Anti Virus software.
    Have you reset your PRAM (and/or Permissions)? Did this have any effect?
    Since your MBP is so new, if a PRAM (& permissions) reset didn't help, I'd make an appointment to see a Genius at your local Apple Store and get them to check your MacBook Pro over.

  • IMac early 2008 8800GS video card issue

    I have had this machine for 2.5 years and all is fine until 1 day (mid of Nov) that it would not start (blank screen after apple logo).
    Nov 19, 2010
    I brought it to the Richmond centre apple store in Richmond, BC, Canada (since I have applecare). I was told by the apple genius there he would need to replace the logicboard and the video card with estimates of $1500+ (i was thinking i m so lucky that I have bought applecare). The repair took 1 full week and at the end they only replaced the video card. I was happy to have my imac back (Nov 25, 2010)
    Dec 7, 2010
    The iMac would not start up again (same symptoms to the first one) except that this time I was able to boot into safe mode (any other modes or from ext HD or DVD will not work). In safe mode, the screen has a huge vertical bars like barcode, so I have no other choice but to bring it back to apple store again (this time to Oakridge Centre in Vancouver, BC). The Apple genius there said there's a problem with the logic board and they will replace it. The repair took 1 day and both logicboard and video card were replaced (Dec 9, 2010).
    Dec 30, 2010
    The iMac would not start again (blank screen after apple logo). This time I m so frustrated. How can you have repair the machine 2 times, replace most of the machine components and yet the machine would not start. I m losing so much confidence with both the iMac and the technicians at the Apple store. I give the machine a few more chances to boot/cooldown, disconnect to power source. It would boot up after disconnected to the power source for extended time but the screen garbled up as soon as you bring up the dashboard or attempt to use any applications.
    Jan 1, 2011
    New day of the year and I have to bring the iMac to repair. I ask for either a replacement or a refund as I have no confidence in the machine that I have. The Genius said that we cannot do that but we will take it in and have a look (I have no other choice but to leave it with the hands of the technicians.)
    Jan 3, 2011
    Apple technician called around 8pm in the evening, he told me the problem was with the LVDS cable that attaches the logic board to the lcd panel. I was very patient (because i seriously don't think it's the LVDS cable) and not let my anger out as he is just a fellow who's trying to fix my computer. Long story short, he told me they don't have the parts and need another 3-5 days.
    Anybody has a similar problem? Does it make sense that the LVDS cable can cause the mac not able to boot up?

    I agree that policy with regard to replacement of online purchases vs in-store doesn't make any sense. As a customer, this experience would of frustrated me a lot. It's good you were able to eventually get a new iMac but it makes sense for them to try to fix it first before replacing it. I think before the 3rd repair I would've escalated the issue until I got to the store leader. If they understand you need it back quickly, they will usually do their best to make you happy. Of course, not everybody's perfect.
    In my experience, if you need to have something soon, you need to politely go up the management chain. I never heard of the first tier employee being able to replace an iMac or do any other kind of replacement. It's always the store leaders and Genius admins that can accommodate these kind of issues.
    The store leader is your friend and it's their store's reputation on the line. Ask for his/her email address and vent out your frustration to them. Recommend what you would've done as an AppleCare person to accommodate your issue. It's this kind of feedback that makes them better. Who knows, they may even reward you for your valuable feedback.

  • Issues with games, video card issue?

    Hi,
    I have been having issues with games lately. Mostly they are hidden object games from  Big Fish, but they start up then minimize, it doesn't crash completely just minimizes, I click on it again and it works for a few seconds and minimizes itself again and again. I am unable to play the games because it keeps minimizing. could this be an issue with my video card? I have attempted updating it but it doesn't seem to help. Any ideas?

    Ok OK, Update...
    the games work perfectly on my father's HP which runs windows 7...so it definatly is NOT because of not updated stuff....I really dont know what else to do at this point....no suggestions from anyone?!?!?!

  • Im assuming I have video card issues?

    Hi,
    Just last night I played Itunes on my G5 Dual 1.8ghz/Nvidia Geoforce 6800 Ultra 256/4gb ram/Neovo E-19AFlat panel with no problems at all. However I woke up this morning and turned on the machine but screen was black. I had startup chime and even a brief glimpse of the grey screen with apple in the center then it went black. If it was the video card being burnt would I even get the grey screen? I checked the connections,rest PMU,NVRAM and PRAM. Let me also mention that when the screen is black and I push the monitor's power button off and on I get a second worth of my desktop then back to black. Also if I remember correctly after the grey screen I get a brief glimpse of the blue screen with the grey box w/ apple logo and progress bar for a second then to black again. Help please! I miss my apple......

    Hi yokomo : You may have an HD corruption.
    See this article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300537
    especially:
    Next we're going to check to see if the computer has video when started up from a disc:
    Find the Install or Restore disc that came with the computer. Insert the Software Install and Restore disc into your CD/DVD drive. The disc may look something like the picture below.
    <Deleted>
    Shut down your computer.
    Once it's off, hold down the C key on the keyboard and start up your computer. This will start up the computer from the Software Install and Restore disc instead of your hard drive.
    If you see video when started up from disc, you may have corrupted software. You can use the Archive and Install feature of the Mac OS X installer to reinstall. This kind of installation gives you a fresh version of Mac OS X, but you don't lose any data from the computer as your old information is all archived.

  • Video Card Issues

    Hello.
    I am bit of a newbie at this PC building game and I am having some issues I was hoping you could help out with.
    I am running:
    AMD 3500+
    MSI K8N Neo Platinum/SLI
    ATI x600 All in Wonder (PCI-Express)
    1 GB DDR Dual Channel RAM
    Window XP SP2
    Initially, Windows would boot fine, but when I attempted to run a DVD or a game (BF 1942), the video card would choke and the PC would reboot.  I realized I didn't have enough power from my PS, so I upgraded.
    Things are much better now, however, after a certain amount of time running, I get either a matrix style green pattern interlaced in DVD or a purple checkerboard pattern in my game.  Everything still runs OK, so I am assuming I just don't have a setting right somewhere.
    I have the latest listed BIOS from MSI (Dec 2004).  I am running the Catalyst 5.3 drivers from ATI.
    Does anyone have any suggested video card setting to try?  BIOS settings?  Could it be temperature?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Thanks for the replies, I will answer as many as I can now and hopefully more later.
    Power Supply - Rosewill AP600X
    12V-35A
    5V - 50A
    3.3V - 30A
    I am not overclocking and I installed the Catalyst 5.3 first, so I didn't do a driver clean.
    I will try to check my temps although I believe I have ample ventilation.
    I will try the AA and AF settings.  Any suggestion on a screen resolution?
    Thanks for the help!

  • G5 Video Card issue, or is it?

    G5 video issue
    G5 dual 1.8, 6 gig ram, OSX 4.11
    AGP card ATI 9800 pro, 256 ram, rom: 113-A14402-116 DVI-D & mac DVI outs
    PCI card burned for mac, ATI VGA 32 ram, rom: 113-85501-208
    Monitor, KDS flat screen, vga/dvi, connected by dvi
    Problem: if system sleeps or monitor sleeps, then monitor does not wake at all or wakes with vertical lines and no discernible images.
    Set computer to “never sleep” but last time the problem occurred when the screen saver deployed.
    It seems the usb/ keyboard is no longer responsive, can’t tell for certain.
    Only way out is cold reboot.
    Have cleaned inside, removed all but the two video cards. Normal diagnostics show nothing out of the ordinary, SYS & TechTool.
    HOWEVER, when second monitor is connected to second card, problem does not emerge. Even if second monitor is off. When second monitor is disconnected from second card, problem returns.
    Is this a MOBO card problem or video card?
    If is video, can you recommend best replacement? Use is: graphics, Photoshop & Illustrator, & video editing.

    Try reseting the PMU or SMU (power management), depending on Power Mac G5 model

  • Video card issue on Qosmio G30

    About 2 years ago I have bought my Qosmio from Germany with 3500 Euro and first problem occur about 1 month ago when I start playing games.
    Notebook is equipped with the nv 7600 gt mobile video card.
    Problem with vertical lines on display from boot up. This is a hardware problem if you get this don't try to flash your bios or something like else it didn't work after these lines the next step is u get b.s.o.d. (blue screen) from now on the Qosmio doesn't boot anymore until you disable the vga card driver (7600 gt) in windows (safe mode) with standard display adapter and you can work without 7600 gt mobile as long as you don't have to play games or run 3D programs.
    Luckily I was in warranty and ASP changed the whole motherboard (that's the only solution because the video card is together with the motherboard), this is very expensive if you are not in warranty. (About 700 - 900 $)
    After I get my Qosmio back from warranty, about 5 days ago (today is 30 April 2008) I just started playing a flight simulator and after 10-15 minutes I get blue screen again. My notebook restarted automatically and again same vertical lines and stripes on my display and same bsod (blue screen).
    It is ok for me because I still have warranty for 2 month's but my question is what if this problem occurs after my warranty over.
    null
    Message was edited by: ADMIN

    If it happens again out of warranty, you will have to buy a new laptop. I am in the exact same situation (blue vertical lines on boot, only works with generic VGA driver) and am stuck. I can buy a brand new Dell XPS for the cost of repair of my Qosmio, so I do not think I will be repairing. Another option is to try to sell it as salvage ("Qosmio, excellent condition except motherboard, parts!") perhaps. Meanwhile I have learned my lesson about spending money on a niche product. $1000 laptop that everyone buys is far easier to repair than a $3000 laptop that nobody heard about :(

  • Help, T420s display/video card issue!

    Hi, all. I would appreciate for any input.
    Recently it happened a lot with my T420s especially when I was on full-screen video playback. The screen suddenly became like the image I attach below and there was no response at all. Then after 30 seconds or so, the system would shut down. I suspect it a over-heat problem with my video card. BTW, the fan in my T420s is also running like crazy all the time, I have put up with this ever since I got my laptop
    My last laptop was T61. With all the Nvidia video card problem before, I am so afraid this would hit me again. Should I return the laptop immediately to Lenovo. I am writing my thesis right now with this computer. Really cannot afford not having my computer for some time.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Did the machine ship less than 21 days ago?  If yes, yes to the question above.  At least that is what  would do.
