5900-TD128 problem

Hi everyone..
After some assistance with a problem that my FX5900 is causing with WinXP.
It will intermittently turn itself off causing the monitor to go blank and the monitor power light to flash.
Sometimes it will recover though often XP will be locked or the screen will be in low res mode.
I’ve tried various Nvidia drivers (currently 53.03) but nothing seems to be rectifying the problem.
Any ideas on how I can fix this very annoying problem?

Here is the conflicts/Sharing window from the System Information application.
The only IRQs that the video card is sharing is the USB controller. The sound card is on IRQ 17.
Could the sharing with the USB controller be causing the problem?

5900 td128 question

Can any one tell me what the core/memory spec is on the fx 5900 td128 card? 3Dmark 03 is reporting it as 300/850. I have the new WHQL drivers installed and so can't install coolbits.
thanks

It runs 300/850 in 2D mode and 400/850 in 3D.
3D Mark tests the clock in 2D mode so it's reading the wrong one.
Get coolbits from here ( this one worked for me on the FX5900 ), you will see what I'm talking about.

Continued 5900 Ulta Problems

Ok,
I didn't hear much about my image quality problems, so I assume I must be pretty much alone in that issue.
However, I am starting to have other issues as well:
I have the setup listed below, and I have run into the following issue no matter what drivers I try (nVidia, MSI):
Whenever I switch video modes (resolution specifically), video out is turned off (i.e., picture disappears). If I reboot the machine I get it back, but I get nothing until I do.
Has anyone ever run into this problem or know how to fix it?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill

I should add that I have the following problem as well:
No games will run at all. If I run them I get a message stating that there is not enough video memory (or the game just dies).
I don't know if it is useful or not, but here are my IRQ settings. Do they look Ok?
Any other thoughts?

NX6800 TD128 problem

I bought a NX6800 TD128 about 3 weeks ago.
As soon as i had installed it I put doom 3 staight onto my machine, so that I could test how fast it was. But It wasnt great at all first thing what happened, As soon as i had started the game, was that the whole screen divided Up into small black triangles and flickered like mad . this only happenes If I am moving thou. If I don't move my charecter in doom 3 everything is great but If I start to move the whole monitor flickers. This doesn't only happen with Doom 3 but with XIII or Prince of Persia the Sands of Time. But with the latter two games It isn't so bad with PoP It hardly ever happenes (the flimmering) and with XIII It only happenes In outdoor leveles. But doom 3 Is horrible. I have already installed all the newest drivers for the VGA card (forceware61.77) and I've also got the newest ones for my motherboard (asus A7N8X) And I#ve got SP2. I'm not quite sure if my powersupply is good enough thou. It says It has 500watts butt in real life it only has 5v 30A 3,3 28 A an 15v A with 12v But that should do. I can't think thats the problem because I've already tested the Pc with all the extra bits like Cd drives and PCI cards unplugged and the flickering didn't change. what can I do ? Is my VGA card faulty or something ?
please help me
with regards x7aa1186

Speak to MSI and ask them the best way to solve this problem.

Big MSI RX9800Pro-TD128 problem

Hi everyone!
I am a proud owner of a Radeon 9800Pro (MSI RX9800Pro-TD128) and I've got an issue that looks very much (or exactly) like this:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v302/IvanV/shot0000.jpg
If you failed do recognize it, this is a screenshot from 3DMark03 GT4. It happens with all driver versions I tried (from MSI and from ATI). It used to happen only in GT4, so I wasn't to concerned, but now it also happens in HL2 when AA and AF are turned on (which is also strange, because I didn't use 3D Mark with AA and AF). The card is not overheating and works fine in other situations. My system:
CPU: AMD Athlon64 3000+
MB: MSI K8T Neo (VIA K8T800 chipset)
RAM: 512MB DDR 400MHz Kingston ValueRAM etc...
Windows 2000 Professional with SP4, DX 9.0c

Today, after months of having this issue, I solved the problem. Still, I don't understand why this worked, so please someone explain it to me. I found two solutions:
1) Change AGP aperture size to 256MB. Since I have only 512MB of RAM, things got a bit less smooth, so I was thinking, since things did work from time to time, and guided partly by memory and partly by instinct I
2) returned AGP aperture size to 128MB, and removed desktop wallpaper, screensaver, custom Windows appereance in Display Properties and it also worked.
I retested all variations several times to make sure, and right now I have little doubt that this is a permanent solution. I only don't know why, so if anyone could tell me, I'd really appreciate it.

MSI GF FX5900 TD128 Problems

I recently bought a new GeForce FX5900 TD128 from MSI and I am having a couple of problems. I am geeting some frequent crashes in games such as Morrowind (every 30 minutes to every hours). The problem is the same in other 3D applications. Could the problem be related to DirectX9.0a? Should I reinstall DirectX8.1? Should I try seeting the BIOS (and the card) to AGP 4X? Or is the card deffective (It runs fine in 2D applications and on the desktop).
here are my system specifications:
Motherboard: MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR (Original BIOS)
CPU: AMD Athlon XP 3000+
Memory: 2X512K of Crucial DDR400 (Non Dual-Channel)
Graphic card: MSI GeForce FX5900 TD128 (Nvidia's 4.4.0.3 drivers)
Screen: Samsung Flat 19"
Sound: Onboard sound
Power Supply: Antec 480W

Sorry for getting back to you so late. I had to travel a bit for work. My card is set at AGP 4X and everything is fine. Thanks a lot. It's always the same thing when you buy new hardware... You got to be patient. At least, I got less problems then my friend with his new Radeon 9800 that crashes all the time :D.
By the way, sorry for my bad english... I come from Montreal and I'm french canadian... It's been a long time since I had to write in English...
Thanks again

XT 5900 and problems with Photoshop

Has anyone with an nVidia card had any problems working with the Photoshop program? I recently purchased the XT5900 VTD 128 card and have been attempting to calibrate my LCD monitor to use the Photoshop program optimally. The monitor is to be adjusted for black/gray and color gamma numbers that will allow one to work with and adjust digital photos that will closely correspond to final printed product. The Adobe Gamma utility simply does not work on my LCD monitor. I have talked with support at Envision (monitor) and MSI about problem with little success. Perhaps someone out there has encountered similar difficulties and has some suggestions/solutions. Thanks.
LJ Brown

Friend I have the opposite experience. Working on my LCD monitor (and perhaps that is part of the problem) the great picture I produce on my monitor is not reflected in the printed product. Colors are washed out a little, contrast not correct despite perfect on the monitor. Have been working with others about this problem trying to decide if it's the monitor, the video card, etc. The printer (Canon) is properly setup, all heads are in alignment,etc. I also have Photoshop CS. Have tried to calibrate the monitor with the Adobe Gamma utitlity so this problem would not occur but the calibration is poor, the black/white and color target and gamma screens just don't end up the way Adobe says they should and I presume therefore is why the printed product is less than desirable. If you have any suggestions please pass them along. Will be away for a week and will pick up the thread then.

MSI RX9250-TD128 Problem: Jumbled video at top of monitor after windows starts

I'm trying to intsall my new MSI radeon 9250 128MB video card in my year 2000 vintage Dell dimension 750 series desktop.
I've tried installing all of the drivers provided on the driver cd and I keep getting the problem of a jumbled bar of video displayed at the very top of my monitor once Windows starts up i.e. once display would go to 1600X1400 or whatever.
I am able to boot up in safe mode.
About my computer:
Windows 2000 professional
750 MHz pentium iii processor
340 mb ram
an AGP slot that fits the card (im not sure what type, anyone know how i can check if it is 2x 4x 8x?, i don't think this is the problem though because it is supposed to be compatible with 4x)
note: when i open up the device manager and go under display adapters, radeon 9200 series.. the "general" tab says that there is no driver installed. However, when I look under the driver tab, it lists the driver that is installed and the various driver files that are installed.
another note: in the device manager there are two display adapters, "radeon 9250" and "radeon 9250 (secondary)" i tried turning the secondary off and it didn't solve the problem
Also, is there an MSI technical support email that works? I've tried emailing [email protected] from two different email accounts and I'm getting it returned.
Thank you

5900 Ultra Problems

Hi guys, hope someone can help, as I am fairly lost on this one. I've been pretty out of touch with graphics cards for sometime now, this, being an NBox FX5900 Ultra, is my first for a good 4-5 yrs.
I did a full uninstall of drivers for my old card, granted not with a cleaner utility(i was unaware they existed!), and then installed the card and the MSI drivers that came with it. Everything seemed fine, I was having plenty of fun playing about with all the new settings, and dual screen, and loving up the power on a variety of games, including the copy of Unreal II that came with the NBox package. When i came out of Unreal, there where some major graphics corruptions, mainly chronically wrong colours and distortions, and my machine hung. I rebooted and got nothing but a white mess instead of a windows desktop. I have not been able to move past this despite updates of ALL drivers, mobo, gfx, and just about anything else i can think of.
There is also another much more disturbing problem, a sequence of pairs of wrong colour lines on the screen, at regular intervals running vertically, right from the BIOS boot.
I have tried installing the card on a completely fresh install of win2k on my old machine, a 700MHz Duron with 128Mb of SDRam, an obv weak machine but still should be able to handle the card. I have met exactly the same results once any drivers, MSI or nVidia, are installed.
I am thinking this is probably a hardware fault now, but i dont understand at all how it was working originally and is now screwed up. Any help anyone could offer would be MUCH appreciated. cheers guys.

I think you diagnosed the problem your self, by installing it in a second rig
and it does the exact same thing, I would RMA that bad boy, ASAP!
Why it worked in the beginning and doesn’t work now, that’s a good
question, to many variables to consider! Heat, voltage, amperage, faulty
components, etc, etc.

5200 TD128 problem with installation of driver

Hello
I brought a MSI FX5200 TD 128 to replace my old graphic card few months back. My FX5200 been working fine till yesterday when it suddenly wont boot up... Colours on the screen turn mad when entering window 2k. I thought its something wrong with my OS, so i formated the harddisk and install winXP this morning....
During installation, winXP uses some default drivers to boot. When i tried updating the drivers( from cd, from msi download, from nvidia website) my monitor screen turns black(hang) when entering window.
Can anyone help me please. I am working at home. I need my graphic card up and running.
Thanks
Zar

enter in vga mode in win xp by pressing f8 on its boot process. go to video settings and decrease the refresh rate for 60hz. go to http://www.nvidia.com and install the latest driver for your vga card.

Changed from K7N to KT6 Delta-FIS2R

Well, it took some time, but I finally got a motherboard in exange from my K7N2-Delta ILSR. I picked KT6-Delta FIS2R. Since I received that board, I had a few annoying problems. First, The CPU temp was around 60C in windows! Then, when I formatted the hard drive to install XP again, it crashed and would not even restart. I reseted the BIOS and I had a message telling me the CMOS was damaged or corrupted !?! Did anybody had the same problems with this board? Is it just defective and need to be returned ?
Here are my specs:
CPU: AMD XP 3000+
MOBO: MSI KT6 Delta FIS2R
Video: MSI GF FX 5900 TD128 :D
Sound: Onboard sound
Memory: Crucial, 2X512K (Non dual channel)
Operating sys: Windows XP Home
(By the way, is it possible to see the CPU frequency in the AMI Bios? I can only find FSB frequency?)
Thanks for the help,
Valkyr

You've done it exactly as described in the documentation (Power off - jumper to 'clear' position - jumper back to normal position - power on)?

Difference between the Various FX5900's

Hey i own a MSI FX5900 TD128 and i was surfing the MSI site and came across like 2 more
FX5900 XT-VTD128
FX5900-VTD128
The site is : -
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/vga/vga/pro_vga_list.php?kind=2&CHIP=48&NAME=GeForce%20FX
Could someone pls tell me the difference between all of em since they all r 128MB's cards!!
Thanks alot

FX 5900 TD128 and FX 5900 VTD 128 is at same
V means that the graphic card is VIVO support (VIDEO IN-OUT)
and FX 5900 xt has a new nvidia chip on it.
but performance and quality is not changing very much

MSI K7n2 and K7n2 Delta Probelms!!!

I work at a computer store in the central Texas Area. We have been selling and Building computers with msi boards pretty much exclusiveley. When MSI made the change to the Delta K7n2 We recieved 5 bad boards in a row. SOme would not Post at ll. Others would post 1 time and thats it, and others would crash in any 3d ap. I purchased the Original K7n2 And And Currentley running it with a BFG Asylm 5900 Standard and 512 Of PC 2700 Crucial mem. and an XP 2600. I have had no problems until i tried to play command and Conquer Zero Hour. Now after about 20 Minutes the game will crash to the desktop with an unknown error. I switched back to my TI4600 and the same has not happened. I notice that there was a bios flash to fix 5900 Compatability problems. Anyone Still haveing issues. After what i have seen first hand At my store. I will think twice before getting another msi board. We have now begun to cary Gigabyte and Have had no problems.

darthmayxj,
Try disabling 8X AGP in the BIOS.
Take Care,

FX5900-TD128 memory problem

Hey there,
I've been having some trouble with (I presume) my graphics card. Basically I can play games just fine after my computer has just started up (or reset). But after a while of playing games or using 3d software in general I can't start a new game.
The games just refuse (start loading and then the window closes) to start or give me various error messages, so here are some:
GTA Vice City: Grand Theft Auto VC can not find enough available video memory
Ravenshield:
OS: Windows XP 5.1 (Build: 2600)
CPU: GenuineIntel Unknown processor @ 2555 MHz with 767MB RAM
Video: NVIDIA GeForce FX 5900 (5672)
Assertion failed: RenDev [File:.\WinViewport.cpp] [Line: 471]
History: UWindowsViewport::OpenWindow
Sim City 4 : Hardware Driver Error
Note that it is the games that give me the errors, not windows.
System specs:
Gigabyte P4 Titan 667
FX5900-TD128 (running nvidia's 56.72 drivers)
Pentium 4 2.53 Ghz
768MB of DDR RAM, 266Mhz
Audigy 2
I've tried to include as much info as I can, but if theres anything else you need to provide a solution I'd be more than happy to find out and tell you.
Thanks a bunch.

Alright, not sure how to find out the IRQs themselves, but I'll just list _everything_
Gigabyte P4 Titan 667
Pentium 4 2.53Ghz
Kingston 512MB DDR stick @ 266Mhz, Generic 256MB DDR stick @ 266Mhz
MSI FX5900 TD128
Omni 400W/12V PSU
60GB Generic HDD (ST360015A)
60GB Maxtor HDD (4D06H3)
LiteOn CD-RW 52x24x52 (Primary)
NEC DvD-RW (Slave)
Sony Floppy Drive
Audigy 2
Z-640 Speakers/Sennheiser PC-150 Headphones
Microsoft Media Keyboard & Mouse (PS/2)
Also, something that I probably should have mentioned is that I've had the graphics card for quite some time without encountering this problem. The only thing that I have changed recently is swapping the DvD-RW in for a (broken) DVD drive.
I dont see how this could affect the games (I've tried using the CD and the new DVD drive for the CDs) so I would imagine it may be a driver problem. I've gone through all the drivers I have and the most recent ones from both the nvidia and MSI site.
Thanks again,
Con
