Geforce fx 5200 (128MB)is poor

now i using asus v9520 magic/ tv output(128MB),i try 3dmark 2001se just get 4691 only,and 3dmark03 -910
i using detonator 43.51 (WHQL) + via 4 in 1 4.46
i find geforce fx 5200 (128MB)is poor,last time winfast a170 (geforce 4 mx420)can get 4134(3dmark 2001se),the geforce fx 5200= geforce 4 mx 440se
have yours got this problem , or may need wait Detonator fx come out
thanks

This has nothing to do with anything from MSI LOL...
PS i have that Same Exact card and i get 4800 3dmarks in 3dmark 2001 SE. Since its a non ultra don't expect good performance. MX440 can beat it at some points. One reason is that the memory is only 64bit and has half the shaders and textures.

Detonator R.I.P.

nVidia has today introduced their new series of graphic drivers called "Forceware"
v52.16 WHQL'd to replace the aged detonator series. Although benchmarking scores went down with the default driver settings game performance in most of the games i tested is better overall as well quality. Specially i have got an hefty increase in frames in Halo (about 25%). Stability is very good.
You can download them as an 7.8MB file here . International languages are included.
Please install via device manager ---> update driver , pointing at the location you extracted the driver. I suggest you log in first in Safe mode (press F8 during boot up) and then install.
enjoy,

I´ve written it in other threads, but here is again:
The VIA 694X chipset defaults to 2X transfer rate to workaround insufficient drive strength from one of the signals. This may or may not happen with your motherboard. Try forcing AGP 4X transfer rate with RivaTuner from System Tweaks - Compatibility. There it is the explanation of this problem. If you keep getting an unstable machine after you forced 4X AGP transfer, there´s probably no fix for it. Anyway you won´t lose too much performance, but this happens also with the VIA KT133, so perhaps you should contact VIA for some help, but they could tell you to install their VIA 4 in 1 service packs, and that´s an useless question!!!

Detonator 40 is released!

Hi,
nVidia has released new Detonator 40.41 drivers...
They promise 25% boost in performance....
http://www.nvidia.com/drivers

More surgery applied to nVIDIA files!!
This time, I have looked into nvcpl.dll of Detonators 40.41, anf this is what I have found:
- "Powermizer" is only available for GeForce4 Go.
- There is a diagnosis tab for GeForce4 Go too, enabling temp monitorning and automatic underclocking for GPU saving.
- There are two different Hardware tabs, wonder what's for each... they both look the same.
- Still some settings hidden at hardware tab: aperture size (info), depth of request queue (automatic, manual), enable fastwrites (on/off), enable write combining (on/off) and enable 2D command buffering (on/off).
- nForce integrated GF2MX tab, some settings for tweaking frame buffer. (Those of you who use integrated VGA, are supposed to have this tab showed).
- If your VGA's advanced settings crash as soon as you open it, rename NVRSxx.dll to NVRSxx.back (xx are the two first letters of your language name). You don't need to set your local settings to US English to fix it!!
- If you are not using US English as your local setting, rename NVWRSxx.dll to NVWRSxx.back (xx are the two first letters of your language name). This way you will get the whole nView dialog, full of tabs and settings, not an ugly dialog with only two tabs and a few settings.
- There are lots of bitmaps not shown, wonder what the h*ll are they for.
- Stereo drivers are included!!, but I find no way to enable them.
- Some tabs and dialogs for GF3 with HomeCinema, but they seem to be almost useless.
- Registry keys for Detonator has changed, some of the previous tweaks will need a rework. NvRefresh and other tools like that wont work (until they release new versions). Anyway, Coolbits still works, at least.
- and that's all, folks. More news soon.
And some personal opinions:
- nVDVD seems to work better (if possible!!) with this release, can't explain the way it's better, but I feel the force in it
- Collapse feature of nView is great, nVidia should thought of it sooner!!!
- Mmmm... OGL1.4 support, DX9 support, sounds GREAT...
- "Inmediate mode optimizations for Solid Edge", that's cool!!! I really like SE, and use it a lot, so this is a five stars enhancement for me!!
- Cool control panel UI, but I still miss a lot of settings, hope that Unwinder surprise us soon with a new release of RivaTuner.
- No problem installing them over 30.00. People with control panel crash, read above the way to fix it.
- Sideband still disabled, nVidia states that GF4 and GF4MX support sideband, but maybe MSI has disabled it at BIOS or somewhere else.
- Looking lots of forums, hardware news sites, overclockers sites, nVidia fanatics sites... ALL PEOPLE IS REPORTING A HUGE IMPROVEMENT IN PERFORMANCE!! So, nVidia is telling us the truth.
- nVDVD 1.71 released...
- Hidden tabs available (http://www.nvnews.net):
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\NVTweak]
"Coolbits"=dword:ffffffff
"NvCplEnableHardwarePage"=dword:00000001
"NvCplEnableAGPSettingsPage"=dword:00000001
"NvCplAllowForceTVDetection"=dword:00000001
(new D3D refresh rate over-ride at D3D xtra settings, new AGP tab (don't work for me), extra setting for TV out and extended coolbits)
And all of these in a official-beta release (It still sounds strange to me: "official-beta"). I think that the "absolutly official" release will be exactly this drivers but WHQL, just a CAT file included in the pack...
I think that nVidia cuts the performance of their GPUs by software, this way, when any other GPU maker (any other GPU maker? I mean ATI, of course) releases a new chip that could play with nVidia GPUs at the same level, nVidia releases new Detonators that make our VGAs jump to a higher level. Doing this from time to time, nVidia will allways be a step beyond. Like a cat playing with a mouse.

WHAT IS WHQL?
Short for Windows Hardware Quality Labs, a Microsoft facility that tests and certifies third-party hardware and driver products for compatibility with Windows operating systems. Products that meet the compatibility requirements are then allowed to display Windows logos on product packaging, advertising and collateral and other marketing materials, indicating that the product has met the standards of Microsoft and that the product has been designed to work with the Windows operating systems.
Once a product has received the WHQL logo it is listed on the Microsoft Hardware Compatibility List.

My system halts whenever I do certain applications such as Windows Media player. audio cleaning Lab 2005 deLuxe, and recordings..... it happens all the time. However, PC does not crash at other times.
I thought it was my old GeForce3 Ti200 in the first place so I changed it to GeForce4 Ti4600 and the problem is still there :(
I refreshed Win98se and downloaded updates from Microsoft. I ran memtest68, Registry mechanics, Anti-virus - all successful but still my PC crashes! By the way, my PSU is http://www.jeantech.com/Products/Power_Supply/400W/400w.html (+3.3v @ 28A, +5v @ 35A, +12v @ 17A). This is my new PSU replacing my old PSU 300W just few weeks ago. I suppose this PSU is rubbish! right?
Any suggestions here?

@harrisb: If it's not broken, don't fix it.
I had frequent IE9 freezes.
MIrcrosoft Action Center assigned the cause to NVIDIA and recommended updating the NVIDIA driver.
I installed Version 310.70 WHQL and so far everything is running smoothly.

Detonator 31.00

Well. I have downloaded some days ago the nForce 1.12 drivers, and it includes Detonator 31.00. I would like to install them for my GF4MX, but it only support the integrated GF2MX. Some websites are making available a modified version of this drivers to support all GF cards. Coul anybody mirror the modified files only? I really don't want to download the full pack again, just the inf file and any other modified file if any.
I have looked into nvcpl.dll version 31.00, and there are some new tabs, no idea if they are visible by default or if you need some Coolbits. This tabs are Powermizer, extensive antialiasing panel, extensive hardware panel (more settings available), new anisotropic panel ... Anybody could post if they are visible by default?

Hey Beltxo,
If you go to guru3d they have something there which sounds like what you are after.
Its under videodrivers/Nvidia/
about the third or fourth file down.
hope this is what your after.
but thats the full pack isn't it ?( ?( ?(

WHQL X-Fi Driver missing "What You Hear" recording

I have tried this 3 times to make sure it is not a simple glitch?
If you uninstall your X-Fi driver and do a clean install using the WHQL driver from the MS Update, the driver installs without the ?What You Hear? recording option. If you update to the driver without uninstalling the old one, the option remains available so this seems to me a small problem...however it troubles me to see that it is missing form the MS driver if you do a clean install.
Is this an option that MS is pushing to have removed ?
Message Edited by SGV on 04-07-200703:46 PM

I have the software from the CD installed, as I stated earlier, the "What You Hear" option is only missing if you do a CLEAN install of the drivers from the Windows Update. That is?to say if you install the drivers from Microsoft's website with no other X-Fi driver installed on your system.
If you installed the update over a previous version of the drivers, then the "What You Hear" option remains available.
I checked this three times by doing a clean install from the Windows Update and then installing the other driver from Creative?s website.
All three times I deleted the X-Fi driver from my system, then installed the one directly from the Windows Update. I would check my record settings and could not find the "What You Hear" option. I would then install the driver from Creative?s website and checked the settings again and the ?What You Hear? option was available.
If you just installed the Windows Update driver over the one previously on your system without first deleting it, then yes, you should have the "What You Hear" option.
I also could not get the "What You Hear" recording option in any software application that previously had it (ie, Adobe Audition, Sony Sound Forge) until I installed the driver form the Creative website.

Detonator and geforce4 mx 440

hello., i got geforce4 mx 440 and using driver by MSI. Can i upgrade the driver to nvidia detonator..... i upgraded it already and there is a few options missing such as msi clock in the display propertites... and also the name is no longer msi starforce geforce ...is it ok ?

preducer,
It is fine. I always use the nVidia Detonator Drivers for my GeForce Cards.
Use notepad to make a new file and put in it what I quoted below and then save it with the .reg extension.
Quote
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARENVIDIA CorporationGlobalNVTweak]
"Coolbits"=dword:ffffffff
"NvCplEnableAGPSettingsPage"=dword:00000001
"NvCplEnableAdditionalInfoPage"=dword:00000001
"NvCplEnableClearViewPage"=dword:00000001
That will open all the extra options in the Detonator4 Drivers including the Core and RAM Speeds for your GF4.
Take Care,

NVIDIA Detonator Drivers

i was just wondering if it was safe to install NVIDIAs Detonator drivers on my MSI G4TI4200, this seems like a stupid question but i just want to make sure if i can use them or not before i try installing them.

Hello,
Thx for the replies. Well I would like to keep the MSI tabs, but if had to could live with out them. Although I for got about the VIVO and Duel display. I run 2 monitors and one of the reasons I bought is card was for the VIVO.
I see got one reply with no VIVO function and one with VIVO. So guess I would like to know more about any problems you had getting it to work Denis. Or if there was anything special you need to get to get the Nview, Dual Display and VIVO to work. Correction on my video card I got, its a G4Ti-4200-VTD64.
Thx for any info you can help with
