BIOS for NX6600GT-VTD128

Hi,
where do I find information whether there is a new BIOS version for my NX6600GT-VTD128 (http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=NX6600GT-VTD128&class=vga)? It seems that there are no downloadable BIOS versions available for graphics cards.
I don't have any MSI software installed since it didn't worked.
Thanks!

they generally don't realease BIOS updates with MSI unless there is a specific well known documented issue. If they did it would be through the Live Update Utility and many times the card is improperly identified and flashed incorrectly. If it's working don't worry about it. VGA cards are not like motherboards. They usually get it right the first time.
The only time I see different BIOS's is if there is a different RAM package being used or there is a specific functionality update.
If you want to experiment and take the chance of rendering your card useless, you can look over at mvktech's website...just google.
Make sure you back up your original BIOS because, as Richard stated MSI does not make BIOS files available to the public and it's a royal pain to get it from them...trust me.

No Video-In signal for NX6600GT-VTD128

Hi,
I'm having a problem with my NX6600GT-VTD128 AGP. The video-in is not working. I have connected my TV and a video camera via SVideo and Composite connectors but there is no signal. I am using various programs like Sage, PowerVCR, Premiere etc and have also selected the proper "source" in every program. Installed latest driver, 66.93 from NVidia, 66.72 and 71.22 from MSI... Of course 2.20_wdm-vivo driver from NVidia is installed as well.
Please advise..........
Thanks

4.04? Ic, didn't know that a newer version existed..... nVidia site has only 2.20 and nothing about VIVO in the beta drivers. I found 4.03 from Sparkle and 4.04 from Gainward...... I'll try these today and post tomorrow with the results.
Thanks!

URGENT HELP: PC can't post after Bios Update on MSI NX6600GT-VTD128

The LiveBIOS utility on my PC showed that there was an updated BIOS of my MSI NX6600GT-VTD128 that I was using and I proceeded to update using the facility.
Everything seem fine until the system was rebooted, now the system refuse to post. All I see when I power on the system is a moment of power (e.g. I can see the lights on my keyboard and card reader), before they also disappear.
My system is a P4 2.4 Northwood running on a MSI 875P. I had already cleared the CMOS on my motherboard but it didn't help. I would appreciate greatly for any advice.

Common mistake.
Unfortunately, the cure is likely to be painful.
Did you disable your Antivirus and Firwall before doing such a thing?
Video cards aren't like motherboards, and just updating for the simple fact that it's available is wrong regarding BIOS's for anything.
You should have a specific reason to do so.
Now, did you backup your old BIOS?
You may need to contact MSI directly to get the original BIOS and use a PCI video card so you can boot and see what you are doing to reflash your AGP card.
How to contact MSI.
Thanks for the advice. And you are right, the cure is painful, particularly, when I didn't back up the old BIOS and neither do I have a PCI graphics card lying around.
I did deactivated my antivirus whilst flashing, and there was no firewall running.

[GeForce 6] nx6600gt-vtd128 vivo driver for windows xp x64 edition?

Are there any (beta or release) wdm driver for this msi's nx6600gt-vtd128 for windows xp x64 edition? If not, are there plans to make an x64 driver in the near future?

I have the same card, and i can't find ANY capture driver for it. Not even the WindowsXP 32-Bit.
Could you enlighten me on where exactly did you see the 32bit capture drivers? (Other than the MSI CD)
EDIT:
Now I noticed you said NVDIA's Website, they're even older than the ones MSI provided on the CD. Older by like 2 years.
What I'm looking for, is a place where I can find fresh new WDM drivers. Or at least an online package of what's on the CD
Drivers should not be availiable only on a CD.

[GeForce 6] NX6600GT-VTD128 Video Capture

As many of you probably know, the v1.08 WDM drivers are Macrovision free. However, I can't install them on my NX6600GT-VTD128. I get the notorious "Code 10: Device cannot start" error when I use them. The supplied v4.05 work fine, but are NOT Macrovision free. What am I to do?
System Spec:
(All the latest drivers installed)
MSI K8N Neo 2 (BIOS v1.5)
Athlon64 3200+ (overclocked to 4200+, I love MSI)
MSI NX6600GT-VTD128
Sound Blaster Live! DE 5.1
200GB WD HD (PATA)
480W Thermaltake PSU
WindowsXP SP2

I have exactly the same problem. I have downloaded the latest WDM driver kit from the nVidia site.
After installation two devices are detected. Going through the installation of the the first device (nVidia WDM Video Capture (universal)), this ends with the message that the device cannot be started (code 10).
The second device (nVidia Crossabr A/V) does install and start.
I want to use the video-in on my NX6600-128E for capturing old VHS tapes.
I have tried the WDM drivers both with VGA driver version 72.14 and 77.72. Same results!
Any help is much ap preciated!

Calling All NX6600GT-VTD128 AGP Users -- Post your temperature readings

Hi to all MSI NX6600GT-VTD128 AGP Users,
I've recently purchased a NX6600GT-VTD128 AGP card and have done some testing for a few days now. I read about the BIOS temperature modification and got it done with my card. To my surprise, the temperature reading is way above most of the temperature reading i see from you guys here. Here is my temperature reading :
Idle : ~70C
Load : ~90C
so far, i've only seen 1 or 2 users with the same overheating problem and i couldn't figure out what is wrong with my card. i can run 3dmark, games and everything else i throw at it without any system instability, but the temperature reading is making me nervous. 90C at full load is way too high and not acceptable. i've changed the thermal compound to ArticSilver Ceramique, tighten the screws to make sure the GPU Core and the HSF are making good contact. In fact, i did all that twice to make sure i get everything right. Other components on the board, including the PCB are equaly hot during full load. In fact, during full load, the heat is so intense that i couldn't put my fingers on the PCB or the HSF for more than 1 sec without getting my fingers burnt.
Problems i've given thoughts about are
1. bad contact between the GPU core and the HSF
2. faulty built-in temperature
As for problem 1, like i've mentioned above, i've double checked and reapply ArticSilver on the GPU and RAM chips. Just to be sure, the HSF itself is really hot during full load and quite warm during idle (tested using my fingers . so that means the heat is being transfered to the HSF correctly. (correct me if i'm wrong). As for problem 2, i couldnt tell because i don't have any reference tempearture monitoring device to compare the readings.
Im new to this card so i'm really hoping that more experience users will post something here, including your temperature reading for this card, to help me address this issue. If possible, I don't wish to change the onboard HSF. I'm using a 450Watt power supply. Please advice. thanks in advance.

I have two AGP MSI 6600GT's.
1) Idles 46, load around 62
2) Idles 52, load around 68
Both heatsinks were removed and Arctic Silver Ceramique added. Number 2 above is actually in a colder section of the house, yet has higher idle and load temp. I think the sensors are fairly accurate, but not if you have a faulty one which might be the case.
I suggest you get one of these which I use with one of my 6600GT's. http://www.bestbyteinc.com/prodinfo.asp?number=SEN-CNU-001
It's accurate to within 1C. It is being used with card #1 above, at 46C idle the display is showing around 36 which makes perfect sense because the internal temperature can be higher by around 10-15C or even more.
If you suspect bad contact with the heatsink. Turn the lights down low, and shine a flashlight at the edge of the card. Look at the space between the heatsink and the GPU from the opposite side of the flashlight. If it's not making good contact you should see light between the heatsink and GPU. Another thing you can try is take the heatsink off and clean off all the compound. Put a piece of newspaper between the GPU and heatsink with no thermal compound. See if you can pull out the newspaper with no resistance. If you can't it's making contact. Make sure to re-apply thermal compound before using the card.

Compatibility between MSI NX6600GT-VTD128 and motherboard

Hi guys, I want to know if there's compatibility between my motherboard "MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R AGP8X" and the "MSI NX6600GT-VTD128" because I want to buy this Video Card but my doubt is about the compatibility or maybe some errors, and I have a 400W Power Supply.. that's ok for this video card?... thnx !!!

hi, how are you.
wel there are no cmpatibility issue with this motherboard and the video card... or i am not notify about...
but do you have to give "us" (all posiblle reply) more info about your pc, anyway the only limitation about it's the slot used, that motherboard uses agp8x and you have to buy a 6600vtd agp 8x, because thera are one model pci express that's all
the power issue: not a issue realy 400w power source are just enough
th real monster are hte 6800 family that need 470w or something like that to work fine
ok i hope best to you and your newer card, and tellme how works this magnificent piece of technological art(in middle rank) and the capture feature with onchip video processor
byee!!

Compatibility ?? MSI NX6600GT-VTD128 with chaintech motherboard ?

hi
i have bought recently this MSI NX6600GT-VTD128 and install it on chaintech 7VIL4 with 512 ddr athlon 2800+ 400W psu and cant start the pc black screen no boot only fan working.... so my seller told me that maybe it is not compatible wat do you think about this ???
thanks for helping i try everything except install it on other pc
bye

Just because yours has more watts doesn't mean it is more powerful.
Check out this topic https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=76923.0
Also please post the max amps for your powersupply on the 3.3v 5v and 12v rails. This info can be found on a sticker on the side of the PSU.
Good Luck

MSI NX6600GT-VTD128 & MSI "3D! Turbo Experience"

Hi,
yesterday I bought a MSI NX6600GT-VTD128. The card is running fine. I also installed the MSI tool "3D! Turbo Experience". However, the tool does not show any relevant information: no voltage, no memory clock, no fan speed...

Hi,
As most will probably agree, 3D turbo is not a very useful piece of software. Your best bet is not to use it. There are lots of 6600GT posts here that address the monitoring issues of that card.
For memory clock and OC'ing you can use the coolbit reg update. You can find a good write-up in the stickies at the top of the forum.
Good Luck,

NX6600GT-VTD128 AGP D3D Problem

Hello Experts,
first I want to show some screenshots to describe my problem.
Counter-Strike Scource
Half-Life 2
Nascar Racing 2003
All screens are taken from a 1280x1024 resolution with 4x AA and 8x AF (Direct3D). After a few minutes this lines flicker on the screen but only in D3D and a 1280x1024 resolution. In Nascar I can switch to OpenGL and everything is fine. HL2 and CS-S are also fine in 1024x768 resolution. Do you think, this is a hardwareproblem or a ForceWare driver problem?
I tried the 71.89 and 71.84 but nothing changed.
My system is not overclocked.
I could not appreciate that in lower resolution and with OpenGL everthing works fine.
greetings

Thx for your response and tipps.
After a few tests with underclocking the card (core & memory) I had no luck and all problems already exists. Also if I disable AA and AF, set 4x AGP only and turn Fastwrites off.
My last try, befor the card goes back to the dealer, was switching the driver. I unistall the 71.89 driver and clean the system with a detonator destroyer. Then I install the nonofficial 76.44. Suprise, suprise, no problems with Nascar Racing 2003 Season and only minimal problems with HL2 and CS-S. A test with SWAT 4 was also successful (befor switching the driver I had the same problems like HL2 ... )
Sorry crull, i think u lost your money . It looks like that the official forceware driver had a few problems with the 6600GT cards anfd many things looks like a beta driver.
I will do some more tests with 3D Mark 2003, stay tuned.
regards
ST
I can't understand how you can have those problems with the same drivers I have used with my NX6600GT-VTD128 running HL2 and CS.
I have tested probably around 7 or 8 drivers, some beta but nothing at all like what you got. In fact I haven't seen any artifacts with any of the drivers I have tested. Right now I'm using the 76.44's.
So how can you have all these problems with the same exact card and drivers that I do not have?
Even if you find it gets somewhat better with drivers, I still think it is hardware related or maybe drivers that are not directly video card such as chipset drivers. Just because of the fact I have not had any trouble like you have had using the same drivers, same game and same video card.
I didn't want to say this at the start but there isn't only software and hardware problems, there is also user problems as well. So I was really gonna put my money on user problem, but I was just being nice blaming it on the hardware. (kidding) It doesn't matter anyway because any money I lose on that bet I can make up for it when you pay the bill I am sending you for my services.

GeForce 6600GT » NX6600GT-VTD128 Query

Hi
I would like to buy the GeForce 6600GT » NX6600GT-VTD128 graphics card from the retailer pixmania but i have a query about something they (pixmania) advertiste the GeForce 6600GT » NX6600GT-VTD128 as MSI NX6600GT-VTD128M - 128 Mo.
http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/130210/art/msi/nx6600gt-vtd128m-128-mo-t.html
May i ask what the M stands for after the VTD128 because ive always know it to be described as NX6600GT-VTD128 without the M.
And could you please confirm that that graphics card on pixmaina is the same as the one on the offical MSI site
http://msicomputer.co.uk/Products.aspx?product_id=703575&cat_id=78
thanks all

Ruud00,
I think M stands for Typo.
Take Care,

P.S. MSI only makes one AGP 6600GT - NX6600GT-VTD128

What's the correct bios for my Satellite A100? Is PSAA9E = PSAA9 ?

Hi,
I wanna do a BIOS Update. But If I go to the Toshiba-driversite: http://de.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_bios.jsp and choose Notebook-->Satellite-->A series there are listed:
A100 (PSAA2)
A100 (PSAA8)
A100 (PSAA9)
A100 (PSAAN)
A100 (PSAAR)
At the undersite of my Laptop is printed: PSAA9E. Is this the same as PSAA9 ?

Hi mate,
dont worry and download the bios for PSAA9 since toshiba cuts the last digits from the model number because the last digit probably the region or country describes. I am not sure, but what I am sure is that PSAA9E definetively PSAA9 is.
Cheers

V20z:upgraded bios for dual-core support, lsi SCSI no longer works.

I upgraded the firmware of my v20z to latest available(2.4.0.14) to gain support for some AMD 275 processors. Prior to upgrade system was running w2k3 server and XP fine.
After upgrading the bios/processors the boot process stops when initializing the scsi controller, or if the disks are removed, when looking for OS. Boot from the diagnostic CD works fine, if no drives are installed. Dianostic CD hangs with a scsi bus error otherwise.
The problem seems to be that the onboard LSI SCSI controller does not configure the single installed drive correctly. When I attempt to change settings in the controller bios, I receive a message "Unable to save non volatile settings". Changing out drive for a newer drive causes no change. Downgrading to other available BIOS revisions causes no changes.
any suggestions????

well it is almost the original state--I can't find the original bios for download. I also checked if LSI had a bios that I can flash to the adapter, and while they do, the flash procedure doesn't work. Probably because this is an integrated, and not standalone chip.
I do get the bios prompts, etc. I can go in and make changes, but I can't seem to make them save. I get "unable to save non-volatile settings".
I think I will check through the docs some more, and look for the download site for older bios

Request custom BIOS for MS-1762 - 937-176262-072

Hello, i attempted to perform a BIOS flash with the MSIHQ tool that indicated that it was a successful flash but it still showed the current/previous E1762IG6.70O rather than the E1762IMS.10U (advised to use from Devil Tech for the GT70 0NE i have a GTX 675MX 2GB) what BIOS is compatible with my machine or do you guys recommend a custom BIOS? I did remove ac and battery for more than 5mins after flash. Many thanks much appreciated! благодаря Svet!

that's crossflashing, because of this it refuse to change it.
i will ask MSI later today/tonight for latest bios for your barebone unit,
and will give you if there is newer one available than your current

or do you guys recommend a custom BIOS?
this one has no connection with the question, the custom one will be based on some of official one.

Custom BIOS for GT60-ONC

Hi, is it possible to have an unlocked BIOS for GT60 ONC that allow CPU and DRAM tuning ?
Basically I would a BIOS that allow the same things that on desktop motherboard, dram timing, frequency adjustment, CPU frequency and things like vt-x or hyper-threading activation.
Also is there some features that can be tuned on the VGA card from BIOS ?
I read on a post that you have a custom EC that handle better fans, is it possible to have it also ?
Right now I have :
EC : 16F3EMS1_T16
BIOS : E16F3IMS.10U

Quote
Also is there some features that can be tuned on the VGA card from BIOS ?
only for onboard GPU, not for dedicated/discrete nvidia card.

Hi, is it possible to have an unlocked BIOS for GT60 ONC
