Desp.cpl error opening MSI Info tab...

I've just installed MSI 45.33 drivers for my FX5600-VTDR128 card under Win2K SP4... This is from a clean install of the operation system and before installing the drivers the video was the default "standard VGA" you get during the win2K install...
The drivers work using directx diagnostics but when ever I go into the display properties dialogue and attempt to select the MSI Information tab I get the error dialogue:
"An error occurred while Windows was working with the Control Panel file D:\Winnt\system32\desk.cpl"
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks
Dave

Richard,
Unfortunatly because of problems getting my TV card to work I  have to use the more recent MSI drivers than the currently available Nvidia reference drivers...
One thing I've noticed is that the desk.cpl file was one of the items updated in Win2K SP4... I might have to see if replacing it with an earlier version removes the problem. Anyway the MSI info tab being non viewable isn't that big a hassel so if I can't fix it I should be able to live with it...
BBFN

    Every time I try to select the MSI clock and the MSI info tab under the properties control panel in Windows XP I receive a Run DLL error saying their is a problem with file msicpl.dll. I have resetup my entire PC from fdisk to dowloading new drivers the first thing I loaded was the video card and still same error. The card works fine besides this one problem please help.

    Thank you ?(

    wyles,
    Download and install the latest  nVidia ForceWare Drivers
    Delete the file msicpl.dll from your Windows Directory and the problem will go away.
    If you want to be able to have the hidden functions, create a file with notepad and put this in it.

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\NVTweak]
    "Coolbits"=dword:ffffffff
    "NvCplEnableHardwarePage"=dword:00000001
    "NvCplEnableAGPSettingsPage"=dword:00000001
    Save it as agpsetting.reg to your desktop or anywhere you like. Then run it and it will give you all the hidden options from nVidia which include extra Resolution settings for your desktop and overclocking for both the memory and core.

  • How to get rid of D.O.T tab&MSI info tab?

    Hiya people
    Does anyone have any idea,s on how to get rid of the msi info and DOT tabs in the display properties
    I,ve looked thru the forums and someone said the msi drivers introduce a new dll to the win/system32 folder and the only way is to format the drive ,i don,t wonna do that as i,ve just recently formatted.
    Its not a major fault or anything as i think they are harmless, they just annoy me being there,i prefer coolbits for my overclocking.
    Any idea,s would be greatly appreciated thanks

  • 5700 Ultra 3 - No ' msi clock' or ' msi info' tabs???

    I have an FX5700 Ultra card from MSI with the original drivers that were supplied with it installed. Prob is that i used to have the 'MSI clock' and 'MSI information' tabs under display settings, and now they are gone?? I upgraded the nvidia drivers to Forceware drivers and all was fine, but then accidentally set the refresh rates for the adapter and monitor too high. I had to reboot in VGA mode, uninstall the drivers and reinstall the original supplied drivers on the MSI CD. Since then i have no MSI tabs under display settings?? Any suggestions?

    man, if u wanna see the clock of the card, get a utilitary like rivatuner. it has a regfile which displays the clock . if u wanna see the clock displayed by msi and DOT, go to msi hp and get the latest driver from it. i recommend u to use http://www.nvidia.com latest drivers and use a utilitary to display your vga card clock.

  • VTD8x reports 32meg in MSI inf. tab

    VTD8X 128Mbs RAM
    -   I've just uninstalled 41.09 nvidia drivers and installed MSI 41.07 cause I wanted to use the MSI information tab in the advanced display settings applet, it tells me the card has 32 meg when it should say 128.
    -    Also when the PC boots, unlike other cards, I don't
    see a screen telling me about the video card(mem size,
    bios number...). Why is that?
    -    Where do I download a bios update for the card.
    I don't have an internet connection so I can't use Live Update.

    'wonkaboy' do you mean the "quick power on self test"
    that's the only one I can find in my bios (Award), I've set it to disable but it's not made any difference.
    I think 'some body' is right the missing VGA info is more likely to have something to do with the video card bios,
    it didn't happen with the older card (TNT).
    I wonder if other people with the same card have experienced the same thing.
    The MSI info tab in the display settings panel only showing 32 megs doesn't help much in offering reliable
    information about the card.
    Anyway, thank you both for replying.

  • TS2776 iPhone 5, Outlook 2013, Windows 7.0 64-bit.  Every time I connect my phone to my computer via USB, iTunes opens with the "accept our terms and service" then deselects the boxes checked under the INFO tab to sync my calendars, contacts...help?

    I am connecting my iPhone 5 to my Windows computer via USB.  This should open iTunes and start the sync process.  Instead of iTunes opening, I get the iTunes service agreement to which I must agree.  Then iTunes opens and begins to back up my phone.  It is syncing my photos and music (although the music thing is another nightmare), but under the "info" tab in iTunes, the boxes of which functions I want to sync are no longer selected.  Hence the computer and the phone are not sharing information.  When I select the functions I want to sync, I must either replace or merge.  If I replace, I lose the information I recently put into my phone.  If I choose to merge, then I have duplicates of everything.
    How can I resolve this problem? Why is iTunes acting like it doesn't know my phone?
    I'm using an iPhone 5 iOS 6.1.4, Windows 7 64-bit, Outlook 13, and the must current version of iTunes (because I've removed and reinstalled it twice already).
    Thanks for any help!

    After you'd run the Configure Classic instance did you run in the statement as stated in 'Oracle® Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) Part Number E10421-05'?
    java -classpath ORACLE_HOME_DIR\discoverer\lib\disco-config.jar;ORACLE_HOME_DIR\oui\jlib\OraInstaller.jar;ORACLE_HOME_DIR\opmn\lib\iasprovision.jar -Djava.library.path=ORACLE_HOME_DIR\oui\lib\win32 oracle.disco.install.config.DiscoUtil -oraclehome ORACLE_HOME_DIR -tnsadmin TNS_ADMIN_DIR
    I've completed an installation with the same steps (although I ran the config.bat file in as_1/bin rather than from the program files list and also I've the jrockit jdk installed)
    I've found that this fails with the error;
    INFO: This tool works only on Windows Platform. Exiting the program
    Which is strange considering this is Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit
    DISCO is running in the EM console but the URLs (as defined in the installation summary report) do not resolve properly. I was just interested to hear if you're installation was the same, this isn't the first installation I've done, they've all had a similar issue

  • MSI clock/MSI information tabs cause error

    Hi all. I have a geforce4 ti 4200. I've tried many of the drivers on the MSI website, but when I am in display properties and try to click on either the 'MSI clock' or 'MSI information' tabs, I get a run a dll as app error and it shuts down the display properties window. When I open it back up, those tabs are gone and only come back when I again close it and re-open it.  ?(  Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
    Tim

    Tim,
    Download the DetonatorFX Drivers from the nVidia Website and install them. Then go in a delete the file msicpl.dll from the Windows Directory.
    Take Care,

  • My home page is google and it works but when I open a new tab it displays an error message :Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.ht

    I've made sure a dozen times that my home page is set correctly, and when I hit the home button next to the search bar it works and takes me right to google BUT whenever i open a new tab i get the error that my page cannot load and the web url that it keeps trying to remember is in the error message:
    Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.html.
    of course the last dot is not the url anymore but the end of the sentence for the error message, but i don't ever use chrome ever on my laptop only my cell so what is going on????? help fix god please!!!!!!

    Do you have the FastStart extension?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance

  • I get a "JavaScript Application - Reference Error: XPCSafeJSObjectWrapper is not defined" error every time I try to open a new tab.

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [/questions/777191]</blockquote><br>
    Just like the title says, starting with Firefox 4 Beta 6 or 7, I forgot. Any time I try to open a new blank tab (sometimes even when I start up Firefox and the app tabs load) I get an error that says "JavaScript Application - Reference Error: XPCSafeJSObjectWrapper is not defined" If I close it everything works as normal again (until I open a new tab) but it is very annoying to have to do this. Is there any fix for this or is the bug just still there?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • In iTunes I click on a song and when I click on the "get info" tab, it opens up but everything is gray - locked, therefore, I cannot edit the year or genre of the songs. Not every song is locked, only certain ones for some reason. Any help?

    In iTunes I click on a song and when I click on the "get info" tab, it opens up but everything is gray - locked, therefore, I cannot edit the year or genre of the songs. Not every song is locked, only certain ones for some reason. Any help?

    I ran into the same problem, I think that, If you tab on a song that is on your IPOD, and the song data is grayed-out, I think it means that the song is probably twice on your IPOD and that the iTunes directory can not edit THAT song data for two (or more) files @once. Check if this is the case, sinceI have the same problem,am looking for a way to have One and the same song in more playlists but only keep the song once on the IPOD.

  • I read the info on TBird opening messages in tabs. I set it to open in main window, but it hasn't changed. Is there another solution?

    I could not understand the info on the action of tabs. I followed instructions to set "open in existing window" but messages still show up in tabs along the top. I have trouble finding my inbox. Thank you, Martha

    If you select Open in an Existing Message window, the first message that you double click to open will always open an new window. If you leave that window open and double click a second message it will open the new message in the existing message window.
    If you select Open in a New Window, every message that you double click will open a new window. If you do not close the windows after reading the messages you will be right where you are when you neglect to close the tab after reading the messages. You will have every message that you have read open in a tab and the Inbox tab gets pushed off the screen.
    '''Close the tab or window after reading the message.'''
    If you have lots of tabs open you can '''right click''' one of them and select '''Close Other Tabs''' and then use the x on the last tab to close it.
    This will also close the tab with the Lightning calendar in it so you will need to reopen that.
    Have you tried using the Message Pane to read the messages and not open them at all? F8 will toggle the Message Pane on and off.
