Only DVI with GeForce FX 5200

I just bought a Dual G5 1.8 off craigslist and this is the first non-integrated display computer I've owned (5 lappies later).
Purchased an Acer X223W (22in DVI input) and plugged it into the DVI port on the GeForce FX 5200. Turned on the display, then turned on the G5 and.... nothing. No video that is... the computer runs fine.
My question is this, is the DVI port only for second monitors, or should this work? I'd just stick in the system discs but joe craigslist couldn't find em and I've only got the ones that came with my macbook...
So before I go beg, borrow or buy some retail discs, I thought I'd check and see if this should work in theory
thanks!

Okay, I've been searching and searching and It seems like this should be possible (others seem to be running just off the DVI port).
I've got the discs and used them. I've zapped the pram and restarted with the discs but still no luck...
Any ideas on how to get this mac to recognize this monitor?

  • MS-6330 Lite K7T Pro2 Ver:1 with GeForce FX 5200, does it works?!

    Hello...
    I have one MS-6330 Lite K7T Pro2 Ver:1 and it Support AGP 2.0 1x/2x/4x, and I want to buy a GeForce FX 5200 that works for AGP 8x...
    Question, this GeForce FX5200 will work with my MotherBoard (that supports AGP 2.0 1x/2x/4x) ?!?!
    I think that´s no problem, and i´ll not have ALL the features that the board offers, but will work... do you guys know about?!

    AGP cards are backward and forward compatible within limits. 1.5 V-only keyed cards will not go into 3.3 V slots and vice versa, though "Universal" slots exist which accept either type of card. AGP Pro cards (rarely used) will not fit into standard slots, but standard AGP cards will work in a Pro slot. Some newer cards like nVidia's GeForce 6-series or ATI's X800-series only have keys for 1.5 V to prevent them from installing in older mainboards without 1.5 V support. The graphic cores can only handle 0.8 V for AGP8x and 1.5 V for AGP4x and will be damaged by 3.3 V slots. Some of the last modern cards with 3.3 V support were the nVIDIA GeForce FX5000-series and the ATI Radeon 9500/9700/9800(R350) (but not 9600/9800(R360)).
    to answer your question, that card will work in your board

  • High definition video with Geforce FX 5200 ?

    hey guys,
               can some body tell me if my MSI Geforce FX 5200 T128 is capable of high definition video e.g stretching small video window to full screen, in this mode you see bad video quality is there any solution ?

    this is not a vga issue. if u get a video with 720x480 resolution and strength it, surely it will lose quality. for maximum resolution of windows, check the monitor and vga card´s manual for specifications.

  • OpenGL features are disabled with GeForce FX 5200 [CS4]

    Yeah my video card is kind of old, but it should support OpenGL shouldn't it?
    Anyway I've installed the latest drivers and even tried Adobe's "force old card" reg hack and still it doesn't work.
    Is there something else I may be missing?
    Thanks

    I don't think so. You really might be one of the unlucky ones who aren't worthy of Adobe's new vision of the future. ;-) Regrettable, but I guess you can't sue them over it, so maybe Santa can bring you a new card for Christmas...

  • Another dual display problem - GeForce FX 5200

    I've seen lots of questions about dual display problem, situation when trying to connect two non-apple vga displays to your graphic card.
    I have GeForce FX 5200 graphic card, with 2 display output's. And two DELL 17" vga LCD displays.
    I manage to connect 1 display regulary with dvi to vga converter, but for other display I tried several difrent converters ADC to DVI to VGA, and it just did NOT work.
    G5 could see other display in display settings, in arrange option I coud see two identical displays, but I don't get anu picture (desktop) on other display???
    Is it problem with output's on my graphic card (Gforce FX 5200), could it be soloved with some ADC to VGA converter?
    P.S. Dr. Bott ADC VGA Extractor is not compatible with GeForce FX 5200????

    It should work. On Dr. Botts web-site it says:

  • Fade-off with MSI T-128 (nVidia geForce FX 5200) PCI card

    Hi
    I'm totally fade-off with nVidia GeForce FX 5200 (MSI -T128) graphics PCI card. I've tried all options found on different forums and also with latest driver for the card both from MSI and nVidia. But non of these are able to solve my problem.
    Even though, I have installed the latest driver for the card form nVidia or MSI, my system gives BSOD (infinite loop) on XP and system hang on Ubuntu/Linux. Request you to please help me out for this problem. Its dam sure something wrong in the card driver or BIOS settings as its occurring with any OS.
    This is my last ray of hope, with a expection that some MSI people will help me out, else I'll have to throw the f**king card to bin. Sorry being unprofessional, but it seems that I have wasted my money banking on the brand MSI/nVidia.
    PC Configuration:
    1. Asus K8N motherboard (nVidia chipset, NO on-board graphics)
    2. MSI T-128 (nVidia GeForce FX 5200) PCI graphics card
    3. Windows XP SP3/ Ubuntu 9.04
    4. 512 MB DDR1 RAM
    5. 320GB, 7200 rpm Seagate ATA HDD
    6. AMD Athlon XP 2800+
    Again request the nVidia people plz plz plz .. help me.
    Note that, When I'm booting with safe mode in XP, the PC DOES NOT hangs.
    Thank you in advance.

    Its followed by "Sorry being unprofessional". But when my hard earning money draining, its obvious. Anyway, Do you have answer to my request ? Or only guiding me for proper language ? If you have ans plz give me too.

  • PowerPC G5, NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200, problems with monitor

    I have 1.6GHz PowerPC G5 (M9020LL/A) with NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 & HP LP1965 monitor. Monitor does not wake up after going to sleep using system preferences or being turned off using the button. All I get is light blue screen changing to black and so on and on. Anyone? Thx a lot!

    Thx for tips. Booting OK in Safe, reaching Desktop.
    1. While in Safe, if both G5 & HP are on "never turn off" I get some dark grey screen after couple of minutes and I can "wake" G5 with mouse/keyboard. If I turn off HP on a button, nothing helps.
    2. Still in Safe: as soon as I set G5 to sleep after x mins an HP loses signal, nothing helps. I can wake G5 from keyboard, coming to light blue pic and thats it.
    3. Rebooting - nothing helps. As soon as I cut the power to monitor or it goes to sleep, same thing happens. Black screen turning to light blue and so on. I have tried to press Power on G5, put it to sleep, than wake it by pressing Power again. I am stuck on a light blue screen for a minute, then all of a sudden I get the signal back.
    Only thing that "works" is to have Screen saver on x mins and Monitor on "Never".

  • Problem with MSI Geforce FX 5200 & Westinghouse LCM-22W2

    I've tried a bunch of different drivers and the highest resolution I can get displayed on this monitor is 1440x900. it's native resolution is one step higher, 1680x1050. Anyone have any ideas as to why my card refuses to display anything higher than this, even tho the latest drivers i have and all MSI's information specifically states that it should be capable of doing so?
    Thanks,
    -John

    here's my specs - if i'm missing anything important let me know.

    Athlon XP 2100+ (overclocked, recognized as 2700+)
    MSI Geforce FX 5200 VTD128
    1 GB RAM
    Win XP Home, SP2 completely up to date
    The Nvidia drivers are version 6.14.10.9371 released on 10/22/06 - I had a newer version but they didn't fix any problems, at this point i'm honestly not sure why I went back to this version :P - I had the absolute latest version from Nvidia's site, which the release notes specifically stated supported the Non-traditional 1680x1050 resolution, and that the FX5200 was supported by these drivers. Still didn't work.
    The GPU Bios is 4.34.20.23.08
    Also, upon startup my system was kinda hanging and I would get a notice that SW20.exe had crashed. I disabled sw20.exe and sw24.exe from starting up when the PC did and have no problems. It's not liek I miss them, cus I never used the overclocking functions of the graphics card anyway.
    Originally XP was recognizing my monitor as a "Plug and play" monitor. The manual says this:
    "VESA Plug and Play eliminates the complicated and time-consuming installation process. Your computer system will identify and automatically adjust the LCD monitor. The LCD monitor uses Display Data Channel (DDC) to send Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) to the computer system, so the computer system can automatically adjust the LCD monitor."
    Right now the monitor is running with a custom inf file that PowerStrip (Which I downloaded from a link I found here) created for it. Westinghouse has no drivers or anything remotely helpful on their website.
    Also, I'm using a Dual-link DVI cable, the monitor also has a VGA input.

  • NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 with Apple 23" Cinema Display?

    Hi,
    I would like to know if my graphic card in my Sony Vaio PC is compatible with a 23" Apple display ? I would like to run a splitter with one feed going to my Mac Pro and the other to my PC utilizing the same Apple LCD monitor.
    I have a NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 with 128Mb, this card has a PCI connection,but I am not sure if my card could support the Apple 23" Cinema Display that I recently purchased to replace the 19" Envison LCD that I'm currently using ?
    Does anyone have an idea ?
    Is there a list somewhere giving compatble graphic card ?
    The nvidia site does not say a word about cinema display !

    Apple doesn't make compatibility information known
    for non-Apple systems.
    But yes, they do.

  • Weird one with my fx 5200 after deleting old drivers and installing from scratch.

    Ok, now I got a weird question, but seems to be a problem. I have a MSI Geforce FX 5200 as seen here and I was having a few problems with my drivers, and I figured it was my video card since it would mostly happen in games with 3D acceleration. So, I used Driver Cleaner and got rid of every nVidia driver on my computer. Rebooted, and installed the latest of the MSI website (45.33) and now, when I look in my settings, I have an option for DOT?!?!?! as seen here
    My question is, did I install the wrong drivers or did DOT become part of the 5200? (it's the one with only monitor out and s video out, no DVI or anything special, heatsinks and not fans)
    Thanks for the info in advance.

  • Dual monitors on nvidia geforce fx 5200

    Hi,
    I'm using a nvidia geforce fx 5200 card that has vga out, dvi out, and svideo out. I have one crt hooked into the vga, the main monitor, and I have a dvi to vga converter, to enable a second vga, crt monitor. When I try to use the nvidia-settings, and enable twinview,  and I get this message:
    "failed to set metamode (1) 'CRT00: nvidia-auto-select @1024x768 + 1024+0, DFP-0: 1024x768 @1024x768 +0+0' (Mode 2048x768, id: 50) on X screen 0."
    any ideas? thanks.

    Hm, Not working, just display on the true vga monitor. Are you using a dvi to vga connector as well? Heres my log output, I couldn't make too much of it, I tried to switch the CRT-1 to DFP-0 which didn't seem to do the trick either.

  • G5 GeForce FX 5200 graphics and third party monitor

    I need to buy a new monitor on which I can change manual settings, to work with a G5 1.6GHz using a GeForce FX 5200 card.
    Unfortunately the new Mac displays (24") only use a mini display port. And the 20" cinema displays are no longer sold.
    I have seen a Dell Ultrasharp 2209WA 22" with VGA and DVI-D ports. It's 1680 x 1050 resolution. Any ideas on compatibility with the graphics card? Will the DVI port on the G5 work with it? I would prefer to use the DVI rather then the VGA port.
    Thanks.

    Hi Japamac; thanks for your reply.
    I was referring to being able to change, using physical controls on the monitor itself, the Brightness, contrast, colour temp.
    I had read elsewhere (somewhere in this support section, I think), that using the manual controls had become a problem when connected to this card/G5.
    We currently have an old ADC connected 17" monitor, on which there are no manual controls of that sort. (The purpose of making these manual settings is to use in conjunction with a Spyder2Pro for colour calibration).
