2 problems, video drivers, and cpu underclocked a22m

hi, I have an a22m 2628-RSU, first off, whatever OS I install the cpu runs at 697mhz, the bios says it is an 850mhz (the cpu it self says 850/256 meaning 850mhz 256k cache) I even replaced the CPU with an identical one, and still 697mhz.
the bios has the cpu set to performance not battery life. I have the same problem with an a21m which is a 700mhz, but only runs at 547mhz.
problem 2, I have installed windows 7 RC (7100) everything works great except it does not like the video card, same happend with vista. It says drivers are installed, but I know they are not functioning. 3d screen savers like the 3d text which work flawlessly in windows xp, tell me that my video card does not support them, in both windows vista, and 7.
thank you in advanced for any help.

IBM Thinkpad a21m 700mhz (547mhz) 384mb 40gb, Windows XP

Welcome to the forum!
You have to push the machine pretty hard (open 10 Firefox windows and run Photoshop at the same time) to get the CPU to work at maximum speed. That is one of the ideas behind Intel's SpeedStep that your A22m has.
Graphic cards as old as yours are not supported by Vista or W7. 
Hope this helps.
Cheers,

    I'll leave it to Steve and Bill as to whether the fix offered in the link for Premiere Elements 2 would still be applicable to your version of Premiere Elements.

  • Creative drivers and CPU spikes

    Hi. I have a few (probably Creative-related) issues that bother me, but hopefully solving one will make the other go away. If not, I'll post it in a separate thread.
    Back to the issue. I am using Windows XP. Most of the times, my CPU gets clogged a little by the System process, which takes up to ~10% CPU usage. I carried out a little investigation and it turned out the Creative drivers are responsible for it. It's worth pointing out that I'm no computer scientist, I just followed a simple tutorial ( link here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/markrussi...7/3031251.aspx ). According to Kernrate, XENFilt.sys driver has slightly more hits that the other ... entries ... Again, I'm not familiar with these professional terms. I've found out this driver was produced by Creative, so after updating the drivers and software to the recent version, here I am - asking for a little help.
    Year ago I purchased the Tactic 3D Alpha headphone set with the drivers, some software and USB device, which I connect my headphones to. When those spikes are persistent ( and unfortunately, they are ), I just unplug this USB device and plug it in right afterwards. The System process calms down and the problem is gone for like, 20 minutes? This period of time varies a lot.
    Thank you for your help
    Sincerely, Thomas

    Since you are using Rhapsody To Go then you need to have the PlaysForSure firmware on the player. The PlaysForSure firmware changes the player so that it doesn't use the Creative Drivers to recognize itself on the computer, but rather a Microsoft supplied driver which is included in Windows Media Player 0.
    Using the Creative Driver, you would have to install it on every computer you plan to take your Micro to. However the PFS firmware only allows you to use Windows XP systems running WMP0. Whereas with the Creative Driver you get Windows XP/2000/98/Me, and even Mac and Linux support with the appropriate software installed on those computers.
    But since you want to use Rhapsody To Go then you need to install the PlaysForSure firmware in order to transfer those songs to the player.

  • Youtube playback problems, Video freezes and audio jumps back..

    Hello,
    since a few weeks I have a strange problems when I am watching videos on youtube. At the beginning the playback works fine, audio and video.. but then the video freezes, and at the same time the audio jumps back for few seconds... when then the audio is again at the same time position where the video freezes, the video continues normal... this happens about 1-4x times per video.

  • [GeForceFX] Problem updating drivers and playback probs

    I have an NVidia FX5200 personal cinema and have constantly had problems udating drivers (crashes or b&w display) - last time I tried the system crashed and no amount of fiddling would allow me to go back so I had to re-install windows and ended up with new install of XP Pro SP2 on reformatted partition - this installed its own FX5200 MSoft driver (something like 5.6) but didn't install any software or capture drivers so I re-installed the drivers from the disk - this ioverwrote with 4.n version drivers. When I tried to update to the latest drivers using MSI live update my pc crashed on start as before with a blue screen message OX0000007E and I was unable to sort this out so ended up re-installing windows AGAIN and starting from scratch once more.
    This time I thought I had it sorted and gradually updated the drivers dowloading and updating each of the 7 available and this time each one seemed stable... until I reached the latest 7772 when I got the same blue screen message - fortunately this time I was able to roll back to 6681, which unless 77 is essential, I'm jappy to stick with.
    However I am having problems playing avis and mpeg files direct from my hard disk - they both stop briefly, sound stutters or they jerk when playing although they play fine if I burn them to cd and play from the dvd drive.
    Any ideas about why I am not able to upgrade drivers successfully and any ideas about why I'm getting playback probs? All help appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi Shrek
    I just listed my first post. I bought a dell Dimension XPS T500 in 999. It used a CT4780 that fed a good Altec Lansing speaker system. When I built my present budget PC I used the old CT4780 card. Because I?am using XP Pro I loaded Li'veDri'veUni-Pack.exe driver (released 280203). This worked fine.
    But I do not have the SPDIF working as yet. My MSI? MS-6533XG?Motherboard does have?header pins for SPDIF but?so far I haven't used them. I am looking for drivers to use if I can get the SPDIF connected.
    Do you have any info?on my needs?
    Thanks

  • Problem with motherboard and cpu cooler

    First of all , hello.
    Let me present my current pc.
    Mainboard - MSI 880GM-E41
    CPu - Amd phenom x2 560 black - unlocked to quad
    Ram - 4 gb kingmax DDR 3
    Video - Gainward GTS 450 512 DDR 5
    Hdd - Western Digital 640 GB
    Power suply - Sirtech 400 W
    Now the problem.I bought a Scythe Katana 3 cooler because i couldnt stand the noise from AMD stock cooler anymore.
    The cooler RPM in idle/load / full load is 2800 RPM (maximum !) Shoudnt the mainboard set the cooler's rotation to match the processor current usage ? My cooler stand in maximum rotations every single time.
    Note that my temperatures are excelent.
    I took a look in Bios and could find much.
    H/W Monitor
    Cooler - 4 pins selected
    Smart fan target - disabled selected.Guess this is the automatic option.I dont wanna set it to manual in order to give some values.
    Amd cool and quiet - enabled (tried it with disabled too , same deal)
    C1E support - enabled.
    Would updating my bios to lasted available solve this problem ? I wanted to do that but i wonder if updating the bios would interfere with my unlock of the processor's cores.
    Thanks you very much.

    Yes , it is
    I dont actualy have an "enabled" option....just disabled or some values.
    I heard from a friend that :
    Smart Fan Target - the critical temperature from which the fan starts to grow in rotations
    Cpu Min.Fan Speed - the desired rotations per minute in idle
    Is this correct ?
    Im thinking about
    First - 45
    Second - dont know....i have to test with different values.

  • Problem with paintComponent, and CPU usage

    Hi,
    I had the weirdest problem when one of my JDialogs would open. Inside the JDialog, I have a JPanel, with this paintComponent method:
    public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
    super.paintComponent(g);
    Color old = g.getColor();
    g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
    g.drawString("TEXT", 150, 15);
    g.setColor(old);
    parent.repaint();
    now when this method is called, the CPU usage would be at about 99%. If i took out the line:
    parent.repaint();
    the CPU usage would drop to normal. parent is just a reference to the Jdialog that this panel lies in.
    Anyone have any ideas on why this occurs?
    Thanks!

    1) I never got a stack overflow, and i have had this in my code for quite sometime...If you called paint() or paintComponent(), I'm betting that you would see a stack overflow. The way I understand it, since you are calling repaint(), all you are doing is notifying the repaint manager that the component needs to be repainted at the next available time, not calling a paint method directly. good article on how painting is done : http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/painting/index.html#mgr
    2) If this is the case, and the two keep asking eachother to paint over and over, .....

  • Problems with drivers and Windows after restoring

    Hey All,  I hope you can help because I have myself a confusing problem.
    I have a Satellite A500 series laptop running Windows 7 Premium.
    I recently had a hard drive fail.  I have replaced the hard drive and used the restore/recovery disks provided to me by Toshiba. 
    My problem is, during the recovery I am informed that two drivers do not have the necessary Digital Signatures. These are the Realtek RTL9191SE Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC and the TOSHIBA Firmware 64 bit Drivers. 
    Once recover was complete I tried to use the computer and had several issues that may be connected:
    1.  I cannot get any Microsoft updates- which includes any of the troubleshooting options etc.  Apparently the service is not running.  Even if I got to the website I can't get anything.
    2.  My Microsoft Office produce key code (printed on the botton of my laptop) is "incorrect"
    3.  My wireless will not work because there is no digital signature validation (code 52) 
    I know my wireless if functional because if I press F8 during boot up I get the option to ignore signature validations and can get on the internet.  From there I did download and install an updated driver from the TOSHIBA website, which had no effect (I got the same error, even after uninstalling the other driver).  Even while ignoring signatures I cannot update windows or use any of the computers troubleshooting or assistance.
    I have tried restoring a second time to no avail (got the exact same errors).  Any suggestions to getting this computer back to "out of the box?"  Or at least functional enought I can surf the web and work on my Excel charts?
    Thanks

    In another thread, a similar problem was solved by installing the Intel driver iata_enu.exe from here.

    What do you say?
    Can I upgrade my CPU to AMD Phenom II P960?

    Hey, adiv093.
    The slot you're referring to is being occupied with the wireless card. That is not a free slot for you to use.
    To answer the processor question. No, you cannot upgrade to that.

  • Just updated Skype and my Video Drivers and now everything is crashing

    I have seen some of the threads here when i goggled why my computer started crashing and most threads asked for the DxDiag file as well. Just wondering if someone would know what my problem is?I have just updated Skype and my Graphics Drivers today, (read: Radeon 2xx Series Gfx Card, with the proper, and most up to date drivers.) and now I keep getting BSOD's and things when I have a Skype window open, and try to run a game like Warframe on Steam. I have in the past, before these updates even suffered from the Graphics Drivers Crashing when I recieve or make a call with skype, just wondering if that may be an underlying problem as well. All the best and thanks for any help you may have.

  • ITunes 12.1 has static-y music, the 64 bit iTunes for old video drivers did NOT fix

    Playing music on my iTunes has all of a sudden become static-y as of the 12.1 update, I looked for a while and found the "64 bit iTunes for older video drivers" and found that it fixed the problem for most people, I installed it and tried playing music, it's still static-y, I've changed my audio bitrate playback and bits per sample and nothing has changed, does anyone have a fix?

    Did you see if changing the Play Audio Using select in Edit > Preferences > Playback to "Direct Sound" resolves the issue?  Otherwise you may want to consider rolling back to 12.0 and waiting until a future release is shown to resolve the playback issues in 12.1.  See Turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for steps needed to completely remove all installed iTunes components, and for links to the 12.0 installers.
