Nbox FX5900sp quiery

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone can help.
I have an MSI nbox 5900sp, the problem is that it runs slower (much slower) than a normal 5900. I have unlocked the Nvidia o/c utility and have increased the clocks to more normanl operating speeds. Should I raise the AGP voltage for the card to compensate for this?.
Gery.

Kingfisher,
As standard I was getting about 5500 in 3DMark®03, my m8 gets high 6s only difference in the system are the cards and he has a 2800+(333Mhz)
have not tried out this with my new settings. I also stuck the voltage up to 1.7 volts and seems to be more stable. Once I install 3dmark again I will post results.
Cheers,
Gerry

NBOX FX5900SP 256MB....i think i killed it :evil:

Hi folks
i think i've killed my 5900SP ......... i removed both heatsinks and fans to replace the thermal grease, it looks as though i must have knocked a couple of capacitors from the card, and now it wont boot.
it gets to the bios screen which shows the different cd roms and the bios number etc..... there are white vertical stripes down the screen and then it resets and reboots and shows the same screen again before rebootin again.
i just really was wondering if there is anything that can be done for it or if all thats left is to throw it in the trash?????

Fx5900sp Vtd256 Bios

Hi There. I was wondering if anyone can help me. I need to find a copy of my MSI FX5900SP VTD256 BIOS, to download, i lost my copy on floppy disc and now my gfx card is not working right, i need the origanal BIOS file. Hope someone can help me, im stuck.

Well, MSI sent me a new copy of my BIOS, for my FX5900SP VTD256 (Nbox), gfx card. So my Card is back to the way it was when i first bought it.
So if anyone needs a copy of the BIOS, please contact me.
Thanks for the Help
So, there you go, you DONT HAVE TO SEND THE CARD BACK TO MSI,
And, it never turned out to be an expensive key chain.

Does MSI FX5900SP VTD256 like ASUS A7S333?

I just got my new MSI GeForceFX5900SP VTD256.
After uninstalling my previous board and configuring my new card, my computer froze with a blank white screen.
After variuos unsuccessfull setups from at my BIOS, I decided to format and reinstall my Windows2000 with SP3.
As soon as I install my video drivers, the problem comes back.
Fooling around with my BIOS setup (AGP apperture size and stuff) and my card memory, 2D and 3D frequences, I could put my system to work ok for a longer time. But it freezes at the and anyway.
I found that my cards conf was unable to detect my AGP slot speed and capabilities (mine is 4X). And it detected it as "AGP(on PCI mode)".
I then updated my mobo BIOS and installed a new VGA driver from ASUS. Now my fx5900 can detect my AGP speed and now it displays "AGP" instead of "AGP(on PCI mode)".
I thought that would work but it still freezes after a moment. I unplugged all my periferals, leaving only my HD, CDRW and video card on fearing that it could be something with power force.
If I use only regular apps, like browsing the internet and stuff, my comp works for about 10 min before freezing. But if I run 3Dmark 2000, it crashes right in the 1st, 2nd test.
Any IDEAS what is going on? Is it overheating (the cooler runs ok and the temperature when I check is cool)? Is my card malfunctioning?
Here's my systems config:
Athlon XP1700+
512MB DDR
HD 40GB seagate 7200RPM
Mobo ASUS A7S333 - bios as331600 and most recent drivers
MSI GeForce fx5900SP VTD256 with most recent drivers
Config on BIOS set to -
AGP Aperture size = 256MB
Agp "Speed" = 4X
Video card = AGP VGA Card
Supprt for PCI2.1 = enabled
Fast writes = Enabled

What is a PSU? Power Supply Unit.
If it is, I will check it tonight and I will post it here.
Do you really think this is a power related problem?
I have already unppluged everything, leaving only my video card and HD turned on, eacho in its own power cord.
Thx in advance. I hope I can get this to work. My games are staring at me...
P.S. I'm thinking in buying ASUS A7V8X-X. Do u think this board will present no prblem with my new card?

Why isn't there a place to select files in the media quiery box in DWCS5.5?

Why isn't there a place to select files in the media quiery box in DWCS5.5?

Such a simple solution! I think I gave up on that idea before but I was dragging it to the icon for ME and not the actual queue window. Also looking for a better way to send a clip to the top of the queue without dragging it since I've got so many in line.
Do you find the quality of the renders the same when using AE?
I'm outputting to the Youtube 1080p 2997 preset- actually need to figure out the suble differences in all the presets in ME. AE has less options but they are all customizable. When I'd tweak a preset in ME, a lot of times it comes out with a glitch or does not open at all- rendering with the audio button un checked for example, etc.
Thanks!

VIDEO IN - MSI NBox

MSI NBox FX5200 128MB DDR 8x AGP, DVI & S-Video In
Hi i was wandering if anyone knew how to use the S-Video In Feature on this 128 AGPx8 card?
i didnt get any software that alows me to record video..
help.
thanks
karl

You should have got winproducer for that. Ask the dealer for it!
But anyway, basicly get the WDM capture driver from nvidia and you can then use any standard video capture software (virtualdub is available for free - open source).

FX5600-VTDR128 or FX5600 Ultra Nbox 256Mb

I'm trying to choose between these two but have a question...
As I understand it, the VTDR's GPU clock runs at 325 Mhz, and the 128Mb memory runs at 550 Mhz.
but the FX5600 Ultra's GPU clock runs at only 235 MHz core but has 256Mb of memory running at 800 MHz .
Is this correct and if so, which gives the best performance, the faster clock or the larger faster memory????
The Nbox has a better games bundle, the VTDR a handy remote - but these wont influence my choice - just the performance.
Thanks
Nezza

Thanks for the reply PoRsChE, and yes I agree with you, but......
I'm not really a gamer, so ultimate perf' ain't as issue.
I mainly want either of the FX56's because:
1. They're not ATI's (have had BIG issues with compatability)
2. I mainly need the ViVo function of the card (hence I don't need the extra speed of the 5700)
3. I like the design of the MSI cards (they go with my illuminated case - yeah, I know, but what the heck!
4. They are at my price limit!
As I can afford either, it makes sense to go for the one with the better performance, just in case.
As I said, I'm not really a gamer, but I fancy the software package of the Nbox, but then the remote of the VTDR would be handy, so in that, I have no preference.
Big question, though is why is the clock speed of the Ultra so much lower than the non-ultra (or have i been miss-informed!)

Nbox N5900SP NEED HELP PLEASE

HI FOLKS
I ve just bought this card and installed. I used the drivers cd, when i reboot the computer after few minutes some green dots and vertical stripes apeared on the desktop so i reboot again it was ok and i start playing the game call pain killer about 10 minutes later dots and stripes apeared again its doing this even when i reboot the computer during the reboot on bios screen and motherboard logo screen the dots are green and the stripes white.
Also memory clock is on 700 [default] if i make it higher or lower than that on msi clocking features which is on where desktop settings are [you guys would know what i m on about] anyway higher then 700 like 850 all the graphichs goes funny
and this dots and stripes all all over the screen and computer frozes.
where am i doing wrong? Right now i ve got my old 5200 installed and i ve got no problems like that.
this is my spec:
amd xp 2800 [runs cool]
A7V8X-X asus motherboard [ latest driver and bios]
1 gig ddr ram
N5900sp 256ddr Nbox
120 Maxtor 7200rpm 8mb cache hdd
Msi Tv anywhere tv/video capture card.
psu 300watt
by the way do you guys think power supply being 300 watt might cause this problems?
or is the card faulty?
Any ideas please post THANKS

Hi Guys

I contact with the company who i bought the card , they told me to send it back for test if its foulty they said they will replaced so lets what is going to happen i hope its not about my spec as I ve got the new power suppy i cant think what else can cause this. If you have any more ideas please share with me THANKS.

MSI Fx5900SP Installation question??

I currently am running a Geforce 3 with the latest driver 52.16. My new MSI card is still in route to my house but a couple simple install questions.
Should I assume that I can plug in the FX5900SP card with little hassle and XP pick up the new hardware and current 52.16 drivers or should I uninstall the current drivers and do a clean install with the card & MSI software bundle, Live3 update etc.
Are you guys using MSI software or just grabbing NVidia's latest driver updates. It seems that the MSI support site are still on 45.33 release.
Are there any of the MSI software bundles (besides the games) you guys recommend checking out? Currently using Creative Playcenter 3.0 and Nero 6.0 as far as media goes.
thanks...specs should show up in my sig.

All should be fine for your card. It's always recommended to do cleanly un-installation and fresh re-installation of the drivers be it the change of card or drivers.
Apart from the games... I've yet to try out on the softwares... .

Nbox Help ( Urgent )

can anyone help me plse
i am now currently in KL, Malaysia
the NBOX sale in here is NBOX 5600
can i know which type of 5600 is inside the NBOX ?
FX5600-VTDR256
FX5600-TD256

That's hard to say since the news release says there are two flavors of the 5600 available in the nBox.
My only suggestion is to ask the reseller directly or look on the side of the box and compare it to the specs found on MSI's Taiwan website.

MSI NBox 5900 Ultra wont work at 8x AGP

I recently bought a MSI 5900 Ultra 256 in the NBox package. I installed it and loaded the latest drivers and began playing DAOC. It was great for half an hour then it locked up. I also had an issue where my refresh rates were really bad and it was drawing like one frame every 10 seconds.
I rebooted the pc and turned off 8x agp. Botted it back up and played for the rest of the evening.
I just put in a new 500 watt PS with a 32A 12 v rating, so I would hope the PS isnt at fault. I also had recently cleaned all my nvidia drivers off the machine as I had installed an ATI 9600xt.
Please help.
I already spent a week working on an XFX 5900 ultra that I ended up sending back, I dont want do that again. Also, I have noticed a number of other folks here who have had the same issue.

I have the latest bios and drivers on my pc. I am not too sure what the grease has to do with it not working in 8x mode. I am not real sure what the 3.3 and 5v Amps are actually. The image on the website is very blurry. I looked up a review and found this information:
3.3v 28 A
5v 30 A
3.3v / 5.0v Combined Load - 200W
3.3v / 5.0v / 12.0v Combined Load - 480W
The review was found here:
http://www.systemcooling.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=1371
I am going to try a full whip and reload of my machine. If this doesn't work I guess I will return the card and go ATI from here on out.
Could this have something to do with the fact that the motherboard is an nvidia chipset? Do MSI mother boards have issues running nvidia FX cards?

Will the MSI FX5900Ultra NBOX fit in these motherboards?

I am wondering if this video card (NBOX 5900 ultra) will fit in the following motherboards.
ABIT AI7
EPOX 4PCA3+
I appreciate any feedback you guys can offer.

How about an IC7-G? The reason I ask is my supplier has only a few mobos to choose from and they dont carry MSI....I would get the MSI board but I can get an awesome deal from my supplier because I did some work for him (about 3/4 of the lowest prices of pricewatch). The mobos that I can get are the Abit IS7, IC7-G, AI7. Epox 4pda and 4pca. Asus P4p800.
The revision 2 epox board has a different heatsink and seems to allow a bit more space than the picture you posted.
Thanks for the help
