Does MSI FX5900SP VTD256 like ASUS A7S333?

I just got my new MSI GeForceFX5900SP VTD256.
After uninstalling my previous board and configuring my new card, my computer froze with a blank white screen.
After variuos unsuccessfull setups from at my BIOS, I decided to format and reinstall my Windows2000 with SP3.
As soon as I install my video drivers, the problem comes back.
Fooling around with my BIOS setup (AGP apperture size and stuff) and my card memory, 2D and 3D frequences, I could put my system to work ok for a longer time. But it freezes at the and anyway.
I found that my cards conf was unable to detect my AGP slot speed and capabilities (mine is 4X). And it detected it as "AGP(on PCI mode)".
I then updated my mobo BIOS and installed a new VGA driver from ASUS. Now my fx5900 can detect my AGP speed and now it displays "AGP" instead of "AGP(on PCI mode)".
I thought that would work but it still freezes after a moment. I unplugged all my periferals, leaving only my HD, CDRW and video card on fearing that it could be something with power force.
If I use only regular apps, like browsing the internet and stuff, my comp works for about 10 min before freezing. But if I run 3Dmark 2000, it crashes right in the 1st, 2nd test.
Any IDEAS what is going on? Is it overheating (the cooler runs ok and the temperature when I check is cool)? Is my card malfunctioning?
Here's my systems config:
Athlon XP1700+
512MB DDR
HD 40GB seagate 7200RPM
Mobo ASUS A7S333 - bios as331600 and most recent drivers
MSI GeForce fx5900SP VTD256 with most recent drivers
Config on BIOS set to -
AGP Aperture size = 256MB
Agp "Speed" = 4X
Video card = AGP VGA Card
Supprt for PCI2.1 = enabled
Fast writes = Enabled

What is a PSU? Power Supply Unit.
If it is, I will check it tonight and I will post it here.
Do you really think this is a power related problem?
I have already unppluged everything, leaving only my video card and HD turned on, eacho in its own power cord.
Thx in advance. I hope I can get this to work. My games are staring at me...
P.S. I'm thinking in buying ASUS A7V8X-X. Do u think this board will present no prblem with my new card?

  • Fx5900sp Vtd256 Bios

    Hi There. I was wondering if anyone can help me. I need to find a copy of my MSI FX5900SP VTD256 BIOS, to download, i lost my copy on floppy disc and now my gfx card is not working right, i need the origanal BIOS file. Hope someone can help me, im stuck.  

    Well, MSI sent me a new copy of my BIOS, for my FX5900SP VTD256 (Nbox), gfx card. So my Card is back to the way it was when i first bought it.
    So if anyone needs a copy of the BIOS, please contact me.
    Thanks for the Help
    So, there you go, you DONT HAVE TO SEND THE CARD BACK TO MSI,
    And, it never turned out to be an expensive key chain.

  • Reached 310 FSB !!! Unlocking 14xMulti on 3.2 Prescott ? MSI already did it like ASUS !

    hi there , first sorry for bad english :-)
    i found a interesting feature/bug in bios version 1.9 on Neo 2 (6728 v1.0), running a 3.2 prescott on that board gives me a 14xmutli instead of 16x so i could run my fsb 310 instead of 275 before. looks like this only works on the 1.9 version of this bios. is this not the same like asus do on their new "unlock" feature for intel cpus ?
    now my neo2 burned off and got a Neo 2-P (6728 v2.0) and this feature is gone, please MSI could you not implement this "bug" on/off switchable in current bios ? so many users would be happy !

    Wow! That's a great OC!
    Do you also have to change the memory timings when you do this? my infineon run on 3 3 4 8.
    Is there anything else one has tweak before doing this or can i just go to bios and set it to 1.49V and 310FSB?
    If one can achive such good OC it might be worth it to get liquid cooling. If i get liquid cooling will it make much difference?

  • MSI VX6600-VTD256 (602-8988-010)

    Hello:
    I have MSI VX6600-VTD256 (602-8988-010)
    When use the drivers on the install CD that came with the card by
    running "setup" from the root directory of the CD everything works fine.
    However if I use the latest MSI drivers (nvidia_xp2k.v71.22) or the
    latest nvidia drivers (71.89_win2kxp_english) I get anomalies and or
    artifacts on my desktop.
    I would like to know why card works fine with the drivers on the install
    CD, but has problems with the latest drivers even though the latest
    drivers are in fact newer.

  • OverClocking MSI FX5700-VTD256

    Hey all... I've got a FX5700 256MB Video card installed on my computer, and I'm thinking of over clocking it (dispite that fact that its new). Does anybody have any idea how overclockable this card is? the model name is MSI FX5700-VTD256. (the stock clocks are 425 MHz core and 500 MHz DDR memory)

  • Does MSI fx5900 "SP"-VTD 128 support temperature monitoring?

    Hello everybody!!!
    I really need someone's help here.I recently used the coolbits hack to overclock my card(MSI FX5900 SP-VTD 128).It runs fine after overclocking but the problem is that I can't monitor the cards temperature!!!
    I used both the 3D Turbo Expirience and the registry hack to add those DWORD values that enable the thermal monitoring,but even after that I couldn't see the card's temperature!!!
    Is there anyone who can give me a solution to this problem?I really don't want to damage my card by overheating it!!!

    I have the same card as you the MSI FX5900SP 128VTD and it does have temp monitoring, i has used different drivers and my temp monitoring tab has always worked o.k, you may have damaged it already if you are excessivly O/C the card, i can only get mine to 465/812 before i start to see affects or lockups, so that may be the case, i am looking to flash my card though with a bios from a FX5900U to get the O/C that i want but i want to know if its been done first , i know you can do a FX5900U to a FX5950U so why not a FX5900SP(XT or SE) to a FX5900U?  

  • Does MSI 5850/70 have 100% fan speed for 2-3 secs when turning computer on?

    Hi,
    I currently have radeon 4870 and would like to upgrade to dx11 hardware. I seems that there are a lot of 4870/5850/5870 cards with stock coolers having this feature: they spin fan at 100% for couple seconds when I turn conputer on. And I don´t really like it. Question is, does MSI 3-in-1 High Efficiency Fan behave similarly on 5850/5870 series? If it does, can it be turn off using Afterburner or BIOS modding?

    Yup, all new(er) cards do it, from any brand/manufacturer, so its not just an MSI thing.
    And no there  is no way to turn it off, unless you can write bioscode, or perhaps mount a different aftermarket cooler.
    But why do you want to turn it off, like mentioned, they do this for a reason and its only a few seconds.
    Ive said it before and I say it once, the sound is too short and too high pitched to wake people up, unless they sleep next to the computer.
    Also, if you mod bios, or mount an aftermarket cooler and some goes wrong, bye bye warranty.

  • GTX 760 (N760 TF 2GD5/OC ) unstable at stock settings. (Does MSI cross ship?

    I recently purchased a GTX 760 TF
    N760 TF 2GD5/OC
    At stock settings, it is unstable, for example, running unigine heaven 4.0 will cause the card to reset in a way where it gets locked at around 500MHz. Nvidia cards do this when the GPU is unstable.
    if the card is set to the slower silent mode, then it is stable, and does not crash.
    If the stock settings are used 1020MHz, the card videocard will crash after around 40 minutes.
    If the card is set to OC mode, then it will crash anywhere from 1 minutes, to 10 minutes.
    if the card is set to the OS mode speeds, and the voltage is set to +12mv, then it can sometimes go a good 20 minutes+ before crashing.
    Overall, the videocard is unstable at anything above the reference speeds
    Related system specs are
    Phenom II x6 1075T
    12GB DDR3 1600
    Motherboard: gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
    Power supply: thermaltake SP-750PCBUS 750 watt
    All voltage rails are stable during gaming and benchmarking.
    The store I purchased it from no longer has it in stock so an RMA with them will not work in a reasonable amount of time if I want a replacement.
    I don't want to be without the card for an entire month, so I was wondering, does MSI offer any kind of cross shipment or any other method to speed an RMA process.
    gpu-z showing the stock settings of the card

    Same issue happened on both of my computers.
    second PC has a MSI 870A-G54 motherboard and a AMD phenon II x4 965 (underclocked to keep the system quiet for home theater use)
    I am pretty much swapping in my GTX 460 for now.
    When mailing the videocard in, do I use the original box?  also, would it impact the warranty if the UPC section was cut out of the box to be mailed in for the rebate that MSI had going for the card?
    another weird issue I noticed, if I run a game that causes the card to go up to 1019 MHz and not clock higher (e.g., running audiosurf and twitch streaming, the card will crash more quickly than if the card is loaded up enough to jump to 1123MHz at 1.2V
    anyway it looks like this card in only stable at nvidia reference speeds
    At reference speeds, it can handle a full work load, even run unigine and bitcoin mine (useful stability test) at the same time without crashing where at any other speed, you are looking at a crash in under 1 minute.

  • MSI - FX5900SP-VTD128 - Need bios

    Anyone got a MSI - FX5900SP-VTD128 with the original bios? I really need it...
    Thanks

    There are no up-to-date Performance BIOS Versions available for your mainboard.  If Performance BIOS Versions ever existed, they were released in the early BIOS Development Phase for testing purposes.  To be honest, I have not come across any Performance BIOS for your board yet and it is also highly questionable if such a BIOS would help you in any way (if it existed).  Whatever problem there is (or not is) does not necessarely have much to do with the BIOS you use.
    If you need help and advice on overclocking, please open your own topic in the OC Section of this forum, provide FULL system specifications (read the >>Posting Guide<< first) and post a list of your current Cell Menu settings for comparison.

  • Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

    Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

    The NEW macbook Pro and Air are EXTREMELY close in form factor
    The newest macbook Pro is essentially a larger macbook Air with Retina display and options for speed in increasing prices up to an independent graphics and quad core processor.
    both Air and new Pro now have PCIe SSD and permanent RAM.
    The Air is the lightweight portable form factor, fast to boot and shut down, but with longer battery life than any of the macbook pro in 13"
    Now the new macbook Pro and macbook Air are extremely close in form factor and nature.
    both have 802ac wifi
    both have permanent RAM, no superdrive
    both are slim profiles and SSD
    The only real differences now are (in the most expensive Pros) faster processors and quadcore processors and top end model autonomous graphics.
    ....and of course the retina display
    both are now "very good for travel"
    Other than features the form factor of the Air and Pro are VERY close now,....so now its merely a matter of features and price more than anything.
    You need an external HD regardless of what you get for backups etc.   Drop into an Apple store and handle both and make your choice based on features, such as Retina or non-retina, .... both at a distance now look like the same computer.
    The Pro weighs more, ....but nowhere near what it used to just a month ago on the older macbook Pros
    The NEW macbook Pro is a different creature entirely than the older macbook Pro, .....the new Pro is thicker than the Air, but id frankly call the NEWEST Pro a "macbook Air with Retina display" , or
    Maybe a “macbook Air PRO with Retina display” 
    Instead of Air VS Pro now,.....its really a smooth transition from Air to pro without comparing say, 2 different creatures, now its like contrasting a horse from a race horse.
    Either one in 8gig of RAM (preferably)... the 4gig upgrade costs very little,  the I7 you will notice only 15% faster on heavy applications over the I5, and NOTHING on most APPS.....I5 has longer battery life.
    As you see below, the non-Retina 13" AIR is 82% of the Macbook with Retina display in resolution
    there is no magical number of pixels per inch that automatically equates to Retina quality.
    http://www.cultofmac.com/168509/why-you-might-be-disappointed-by-the-resolution- of-those-new-retina-display-macs-feature/
    A huge internal SSD isnt a game changer for anything, you need an external HD anyway
    what you WONT READ on Apple.com etc. is that the larger SSD  are MUCH FASTER due to SSD density
    "The 512GB Samsung SSD found in our 13-inch model offers roughly a 400MB/s increase in write speeds over the 128GB SanDisk/Marvell SSD"

  • What does the bios look like on a G61-336NR? Product: VU181UA#ABA

    What does the bios look like on a G61-336NR? Product: VU181UA#ABA and is it removable?

    Hi Juicy9097,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP G61-336NR Notebook and BIOS concerns. The BIOS is responsible for loading the operating system. Without it your computer will not work as it checks the hardware and then loads the operating system. Here is a link From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia explaining the BIOS.
    Hope this explains things.
