945GM3 (MS-7267 Ver. 3.0): Can't get 5450 Video to work at all.

I just bought a Sapphire 5450 (100291L) video card and a Hanns-G 22" HDMI monitor to install in a friend's system along with Win 7 HP 64bit.  It boots fine with the built-in video, but it doesn't recognize my video card at all.  Device manager shows only the 945G video. 
I installed the latest MB BIOS v5.6, cleared cmos, and reseated the graphics card with no success.
I even tried to disable built-in video in the BIOS with no luck.  The video screen stays blank (not even a BIOS screen), but I can hear the windows welcome screen music, so it makes it to the desktop.
The system is:
945GM3 (MS-7267 Ver 3.0)
Intel P4 641 3.2GHz
2GB DDR2-800@DDR2-667 (for some reason SPD load it as 667MHz instead of 800MHz)
Saphire 5450 (100291L) DDR2-512MB
500GB Seagate HDD

  • I can't get my video toto work

    I can't get my video to work on my iPad.... I have never used it before so today I thought it would be nice to take a video... I did look it up on line but everyone is saying I have to slide the marked video to the middle of the screen, and I have done all that but it still won't work... Thank you

    Swipe up or down on the screen - anywhere on the screen - until the word Video appears in yellow type on the right. That indicates that the video mode has been selected. Then tap on the big red dot to start recording, tap the big red button when you are done recording.

  • How can I get flash video to work on ipad2 ?

    I have ipad2 on order - then realised does not support flash. All our training videos are flash !!! Do I cancel order or can I get flash to run on ipad2

    Flash is not supported on the iPad. There are some apps that take a flash video on a web page, send it to a server which converts it to a format suitable for the iPad, but these are somewhat iffy.

  • Can't get the video to work on my ipad 7.0.2...camera works...has the word "video" on the camera screen but no open when I touch it.

    Can't get my ipad to take videos...since it has the word "video" on the camera app I would have thought it would take videos. -  I touch the spot. ...NO video!  I guess this ipad doesn't have video capability. ??

    Try sliding the words instead of tapping them.

  • Can't get any video driver working (X-Server)

    Hi everybody (and thx for reading this),
    I'm about to install Arch Linux 64 Bit on a new machine, an Acer Aspire 8935G. I installed Arch Linux on several plattforms over the last months with help from the brilliant Wiki-Guide. Unfortunatley I can't figure out how to get the X-Server running this time, so I need a little (???) help here to point me in the right direction.
    System is up and running. Graphic Card is a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670 (and an Mobile Intel GM45). What I did so far was installing the radeonhd driver first (and later others, because radeonhd wouldn't work) and configure X with:
    # Xorg - configure
    Which resulted in a message of the X Protocol:
    List of video drivers:
    radeonhd
    intel
    ati
    radeon
    fbdev
    vesa
    after that I installed and ran HAL, to avoid problems with input hotplugging.
    Finally, to test the configuration:
    # X -config /root/xorg.conf.new
    (EE) RADEONHD(0): rhdAtomGetDDCIndex: GPIO_DDC Index 5 exceeds maximum 5
    (EE) RADEONHD(0): AtomBIOS returned 3 Grey Levels
    (EE) RADEONHD(0): AtomBIOS returned 3 Grey Levels
    (EE) RADEONHD(0): rhdAtomLvdsDDC: unknown record type: c
    (EE) RADEONHD(0): ParseTable said: CD_INVALID_OPCODE
    (EE) RADEONHD(0): atomSetBacklightFromBIOSScratch: rhtAtomDigTransmitterControl(atomTransEnable) failed.
    ^C
    Playing around with vesa, intel and fbdev didn't bring me any further. Vesa and Intel led to a black screen without responding keys (hard reset is necessary every time) and FBDEV led to a error message:
    Primary device is not PCI
    (EE) FBDEV(0): FBIOBLANK: Invalid argument
    Maybe it's an issue with the integrated full hd monitor, because of the DDC-Message, but googling around didn't help for the moment. The hardware works with Linux, Mandriva 32-bit-Image ran out of the box with X-Server and KDE 4.2. But I would prefer an Installation of Arch Linux with the software, I really need and want.
    I will try to add the xorg.conf later on as I'm writing this on an other machine.
    Thx in advance for the help!

    Yes, I know. I also tried to get it working without an preconfigured xorg.conf. You know it... yeah... results in a black screen ;-).
    zenlord wrote:And are you using the latest software? I installed Debian stable on a G45-chipset with intel graphics last week and I had to use at least the 2.6.2-driver IIRC, or upon loading the (old) driver, the DVI-port was disconnected and I was left with a black screen, but otherwise working install
    Yesterday, I experimented with the Intel driver, because I found out that Mandriva also uses them, not fglrx like I thought. First I tried the xf86-video-intel. Have given me the typical X-Server feeling at start, probing the monitor I guess, than the backlight of the screen is on but the screen itself stays black. Fells like it's working, just the monitor is not respondig. Tried 1001 different screen settings, but the problem can't get solved. The same phenomenon can be experienced when usen the latest Intel-Git-Drivers from AUR. Last message of Xorg was: Setting up DRM Master or something like that. I will go and check it tonight again and report back.

    Like AdrenalineJunky stated radeonhd supports the card. I read about it yesterday.

  • How can i get incoming video to work during a video conference?

    Until recently, i have been able to chat with people over video chat very easily, without any problems at all. Not too long ago, i have been experiencing some odd occurrences. When i invite or am invited to a video chat, it will just come up with the video coming from my camera. I can hear audio coming from the other person but no video of them. I have tried this with 3 people who have the same computer as me and it does the same thing every time. They say that they can see and hear me, but i cannot see them. It is almost as if i am in a one-way video chat, however i am not.
    Anyone that has a solution to this please donate your ideas!!
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Hi Waxexm311,
    The Video Pic failing to display is either something to do with the Processing of the Video or getting the video through iChat.
    As I have already posted the first point is the .plist may be corrupt hence deleting it hand restarting iChat.
    It may be to do with the Internet speed as seen by iChat which reads the Quicktime Setting - hence setting it to 1.5Mbps and restarting iChat again.
    After that it can be the Cache and Log files and running the Cron scripts usually sorts this.
    Does this happen with all Buddies ?
    Use Table 1 for the Apple test accounts that Auto answer
    http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/ContactTesters.html
    If they work try people in table 2
    If that does not work Quit iChat
    Paste the Bold text below into Terminal
    /Applications/iChat.app/Contents/MacOS/iChat -errorLogLevel 7
    This will force iChat to start and create a log as it does so.
    As iChat launches for you normally try a Video chat.
    Not where that process starts in the Log and then post the Start up bit and then the continuance as two separate parts.
    (Or at least mark the log when you post it here.)
    There may be something wrong with the App in which case a Reinstall may be in order.
    Please Note the last paragraph that says to run the Combo Installer afterwards of the latest OS (Or at least the level you are at to bring iChat up to the level of the OS).
    Running the Combo Installer can sort things like this out on it's own. So that is worth trying even before the Reinstall.

  • I can't get flash videos to work on Daily Show website (using either Safari or Firefox) - latest version of Adobe flash.... can anyone help??

    Hi all,
    I can't get the Daily Show videos to play (flash) on either Safari or Firefox on either of my macbook pro & macbook air.
    I have the latest version of flash, tried reinstalling, restarting, cleaning out the cache but no dice.
    Can anyone help me? 
    Kind regards, Renegade.

    Works with no problem on my MacBook Air. Since it is happening on both browsers on both of your computers, have you considered the possibility that it may be something to do with your router?

  • HT4623 Hi I CAN'T GET MY VIDEO TO WORK FIRSTLY MENTIONED WRONG URL NOW NOTHING?

    Hi I can't use my video or see anything but a blank screen when I try it. Firstly it said wrong URL now nothing.
    Any help please?
    Jenny

    The "requested URL cannot be found" message is a frequent message that I have gotten in the videos app when trying to play a movie that has been downloaded to my iPad for months. I delete the video and download it again.
    Apparently you are talking about something different but you are supplying details in bits and pieces.
    Try this. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I can't get itunes video to work with my windows 7 64 bit system?

    I have a windows 7 64 bit operating system and have loaded the version of Itunes designated for 64 bit systems.  All of my audio content seems to work fine, but my video content is almost non-functional.  If I try to play a movie or tv show, I get the sound but no picture.  In frustration, thinking that I would be unable to use the movies i bought on Itunes, I got a converter to change the video over to mp4 format.  Well, as soon as I started trying to convert the files, the player started functioning.  I notice that after using the converter, my itunes video files work okay.  If I restart the machine and itunes without the converter running, I get the old problem of no picture but sound.  As soon as I start converting a file, then thing starts working again.
    A related issue, is that I can not see the Itunes Homepage.  I can open specific pages related to searches, but the drop down menus and links are hit or miss as to whether they work or not.

    hello dshultz58, does it work if you use the windows installer for plugin-based browsers from: [https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html]?

  • IOS 6: can't get Siri geofences to work at all (parents, home)

    I’ve read many online examples of people setting up a geofence reminder for then they reach a location identified as “mom” or “dad” or “parent”. I know you have to set up a known location (like a parent or your own "home"/"work") but it still won't work for me on my iPhone 5 (my first Siri device).
    I have told Siri who my “mother” and “father” are, and that seems to have been understood successfully. (I see that info in my Contacts, and when I tell Siri the info again, it tells me it already knows that ___ is my mother.)
    Here’s what happens every time:
    1. I ask it to remind me of something when I reach my mom’s.
    2. It understands this just fine: it asks if I want her work or home address (odd, but OK). I tap or say "home." So far so good.
    3. Then it asks me WHEN I want to be reminded! Suddenly the geofence idea is abandoned and it thinks I’m doing a timed reminder.
    If I refuse to give a day+time, I can instead say “when I reach my mom’s,” which Siri seems to understand: it asks yet again for me to choose my mom’s home vs. work. I choose “home” and Siri goes back to asking me the useless “when” question again. Endless loop. No reminder set.
    But then today it's even worse: now it either goes straight to the "when question" without any attempt to understand to the location, OR it knows this is a geofence reminder, but simply says my parents’ address isn’t set. But it IS set—and Siri has properly mapped it for me in the past! When I try to re-teach Siri “My mother is _____” it says that it already knows that. So it HAS all the needed info, yet it tells me it does not.
    For comparison, I AM able to get Siri to set a Geofence successfully for my own home. I can look in Reminders and see that my request has worked. (But the reminder never comes: I get home and it never gets triggered. But that's a whole separate bug.)
    I've reported this to Apple via Feedback, but if anyone has a workaround to make Siri do ANYTHING with Geofences, I'd find it very useful! Thanks.

  • I can't get Flash Player to work at all I need help PLEASE!!!

    I have been trying for close to 1 week now to figure out how to get this flash player to work on both IE & Firefox and it's driving me crazy. I'm running a Windows 7 Home Premium Edition 64-bit not sure what other info you need but I'm here if you need more. I just want to get this fixed so hubby can play his games and I can play mine.
    Thanks so much

    Games require not only the latest Flash Player, but the least Shockwave as well. I recommend a complete “clean install” for both.
    Download the following by right clicking and  selecting either "Save target as"(IE) or "Save Link As"(Firefox):
    Shockwave Player Uninstaller
    Flash Player Uninstaller
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    Shockwave Player 12 FULL Installer (Other browsers)
    Save the files - DO NOT RUN ANYTHING YET.
    Reboot your system.
    BEFORE opening anything, run the UNINSTALLERS to remove Shockwave and Flash Player,
    Once they’ve finished, go to: C/Windows/System32 and delete the Macromed folder.
    Go to: C/Windows/SysWOW64 and delete the Macromed folder.
    Open your Registry Editor (Start>Run or press the Windows key + R and tope “regedit” [minus the quotes] and click OK)
    In the Registry Editor, go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE and delete the Macromedia folder.
    Go to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software and delete the Macromedia folder there.
    Close the Registry Editor and empty your Recycle Bin.
    Run the Flash Player installers, and the Shockwave FULL installer for Firefox.
    Lastly, using IE, visit: http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/otherversions/ to download and install the Shockwave FULL installer for ActiveX.

  • Running Firefox 22 on Mac with no Adblock and can't get most videos. Works fine in Chrome & Safari.

    I am unable to run most videos in Firefox. Have v22 and have had this problem for a while with several versions on both my Mac and PC laptop. I've tried downgrading Flash, didn't work. I've checked, and I'm not running Adblock. I'm about ready to dump FF and use a different browser although I don't want to. Any help is appreciated.

    Safe Mode isn't practical for permanent use, but you can try making some of the changes in regular mode.
    (1) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox (this is disabled in Safe Mode)
    Un-check the box here and restart:
    Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    (2) Check for and disable any nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the following tabs (these would all have been disabled in Safe Mode):
    Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category
    (3) If you use any recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media, and you do not want to disable them, make sure they are as up-to-date as possible

    Hi jayjay22
    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Yes Time Machine is only available in 10.5, to upgrade you will need to purchase a retail copy of Leopard.

  • Can someone tell me what settings I need for ipad texting.  Went to Mexico and now can't get the texting to work at all on ipad.  Thanls

    Can someone tell me what settings I need for ipad texting.  I went to Mexico and when I returned the texting does not work on my ipad.  The support at Apple wanted to charge me to get info.
    THanks

    Can't address the problem directly, cause even though my iPad4 is Cell+Wi-Fi, I've never put a SIM in it and never had the need to text, SMS or iMessage, from it. When away from the office or home wireless network, I tether it off the iPhone. Skype, both text and video, work just fine thru the Wi-Fi link, though.
    HOWEVER, when I was hashing out the contract details to get the iPhone 5 about 14 months ago at Telcel, the representative distinctly mentioned that both Visual Voicemail as well as iMessages would be included in the package and they would be mandatory cause "I was getting a (subsidized) Apple iPhone" on a 24 month leash. Then when the gizmo came out of its box for SIM installation and activation, she went thru the motions of making sure both were working properly.  So I assume the carrier has some say in the matter.
