Driver nvidia geforce 680 and 760M

Hi, I read arch Wiki to check what driver I must install for my nvidia geforce 680 and 760M but I don't understand what is the right driver. Can you say me what is the right driver?

@karol: Actually, you're wrong. 340xx is a legacy driver, delvi932905's cards aren't legacy, so no need to use a legacy driver.
@delvi932905: The mainline driver, nvidia, is for you. What exactly is unclear on the wiki? I'm asking because I don't think this could be written any clearer:
For GeForce 400 series cards and newer [NVCx and newer], install the nvidia or nvidia-lts package, available in the official repositories.
For GeForce 8000/9000 and 100-300 series cards [NV5x, NV8x, NV9x and NVAx] from around 2006-2010, install the nvidia-340xx or nvidia-340xx-lts package, available in the official repositories.
For GeForce 6000/7000 series cards [NV4x and NV6x] from around 2004-2006, install the nvidia-304xx or nvidia-304xx-lts package, available in the official repositories.
You have 680 and 760M, so clearly the first line - 400 and newer - applies to you.

Problems with Nvidia GeForce 210 and windows 8.1

Hi all, I have Windows 8.1 Pro update 1 64bit installed, two weeks ago I started giving problems graphics card NVidia (even has me
given several blue screen).
I tried to update the drivers for the card but I got the same problem. It was working properly with generic
drivers, and if I went to Computer Administrator me a yellow triangle appeared
on my graphics card and the properties told me the following:
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems.
(Code 43 )
My machine is as follows:
Mainboard : Asus P5K SE
Chipset: Intel P31/P35
Processor : Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2400MHz
Physical Memory : 3072MB (3 x 1024 DDR2- SDRAM)
Video Card : NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT
Hard Disk : Seagate ST3320620AS ATA Device (320GB )
Monitor Type: LG Electronics L1919S
I just formatted
the computer from scratch, and
I still had the same problem with the graphics card,
so I imagined it would be a hardware problem
and bought NVIDIA GeForce 210.
In the end I
upgraded to Windows 8.1 update 1 with
the latest drivers for the GeForce 210,
and after 6 days running everything correctly, a few days ago
returned to give me problems,
the screen sometimes freezes and will not
let me do anything and after a while
giving me a blue screen and reboots
me, I suspect that the graphics drivers
are giving me problems, and I had to
disable the graphics card and work with
generic drivers from Microsoft, and even then I
was restarted once.
I installed Driver Booster and all the drivers are updated.
Could
anyone analyze
dump files dmp ? Download here
I got another dmp:
C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP but it is too heavy.
Thanks

yes, I check the dump files
this cause by graphic card, on which graphic card you reformat your PC and update
.NET framework maybe cause this driver corrupted
my suggestion is try using internal graphic card, just for testing
Just in case you don't believe me, please check this dump file

Nouveau driver NVIDIA GeForce Go5200 corrupting on GNOME 3

I am trying to get Arch running on my sister's laptop, since she was an idiot and didn't upgrade or update Fedora 14, which caused it to be unable to update at all.
I've had the worst time getting this thing running. But my final unsolvable problem is getting the graphics card to work in Gnome 3.
I installed the nouveau drivers as suggested before messing with nvidia drivers. The nouveau drivers have this severe problem: they don't draw GNOME 3 or GDM consistently. They draw GTK windows and apps fine, though.
Symptoms:
The text is garbled.
The top bar isn't drawn at all, or it's drawn with messed up icons and messed up text.
The animated water drop that shows when you move the cursor to the top left of the screen works fine.
So I installed the nvidia driver because this is simply unacceptable. followed all instructions by the book, then restarted. The desktop reverted to the "fallback" method, which was usable, but this indicated problems with the driver (supposed to be 3D accelerated).
Then I did "nvidia-xconfig", and rebooted. The kernel module now wouldn't work. The /var/log/kernel.log read near the bottom of it,
NVIDIA GeForce Go5200 GPU installed in this system is supported through the NVIDIA 173.14.xx Legacy drivers. The 285.05.05.09 NVIDIA driver will ignore this GPU.
Well that certainly isn't what I bargained for. It's nvidia's stupid driver. WORK already!
I'll include another log found at /var/log/Xorg.0.log because I think the DRI modules, whatever those are, may be responsible for this, even though I followed the directions and made sure the nvidia config didn't have any DRI anything:
loading extension XFree86-DRI
load module "dri2"
loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri2.so
load extension DRI2
loadModule: "nvidia"
loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so
Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module. Please check your system's kernel log for additional error messages.
Don't pay attention to the capitalization. It doesn't matter. The capitalization is correct in the files. I think the problem is to do with something else.
My guess is that somehow this laptop's graphics card is just so d--- old that nvidia forgot about it *sarcasm*. It doesn't explain why the nouvea drivers suck so much on it. Why are they corrupting gnome, and better yet, will it be fixed? Otherwise, this laptop has met its life-span.

I forgot something.
I uninstalled the nvidia driver afterward and reinstalled the nouveau driver, but I'm having new problems. I've tried to recall what all config files I changed to work with the nvidia driver, and I've reverted them. I could have missed some.
GDM will start, and I can log in but now Gnome 3 doesn't show any GUI controls. Only the background.
Xabre wrote:Well, as noted, you dont need nvidia driver (which is for geforce 6 and newer chips), but nvidia-173 driver (gf 5 series), which currently doesn't support xorg 1.11, which is in arch repoes.
Best suggestion, if nouveau doesn't fit, is to rebuild or find a repo with xorg 1.10 (wiki might help), and the install nvidia-173 from AUR.
Isn't there a way to force the update server to give you an earlier version of a package? And if so, would it automatically uninstall the newer version, and its dependencies and its dependees, and replace them? I've been reading Man pages all day, so I'm really tired at this point and need a little help sorting through the information in my head.

Nvidia Geforce 670 and the Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration for Adobe Premiere Pro

Will Adobe test and certify the Nvidia Geforce GTX 670 for use with the mercury playback engine GPU acceleration feature of Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 in the near future? Any advice would be much appreciated, thanks in advance for any help.

Adobe only certifies after extensive testing... For many others, with at least 1Gig of video ram, use the nVidia Hack http://forums.adobe.com/thread/629557 - which is a simple entry in a "supported cards" file - and Mac http://www.vidmuze.com/how-to-enable-gpu-cuda-in-adobe-cs6-for-mac/

Satego X200 - XP Display Driver (Nvidia Geforce 8600M GT)

Hi,
finally I managed to install XP on my 2. HDD - beside Vista (in order to get rid of Vista later).
What I still need is a suitable display driver, since Toshiba offers only one for ATI.
I found many posts with similar topics in the www (laptopvideo2go, Nvidia, etc), but no suitable driver so far. Nvidia doesn't support Toshiba drivers directly.
So I asked Toshiba for a solution and mentioned that a beta-driver might help as well since I don't need high grafic performance on this machine (no 3d stuff and I won't play games here) it should simply work ;-).
They answered very quickly and provided a link to a not-signed _Satellite_ X200 driver. Unfortunately that driver leads to the same result (similar to: "Hardware not supported ...installation terminated").
It would be great if anyone had an idea
THX
Kroever

@jaba & @Horwath
I asked Toshiba Germany again if and when they'll make an XP driver available. Their answer was quite clear - and disappointing: "they can't actually tell" :-(
In the meantime I found a way to increase my grafic performance a little bit (while using the XP standard VGA driver) .
I had the problem that i.e. shifting a single window took some time because it goes nearly line by line (not really but that's how it looked like).
Therefore I reduced the hardware acceleration to "none" (don't know if this is the correct translation since I use a German MMI).
This helps a little - I wonder how long, I guess 'til my son installs his next game ;-)
I will follow your advice looking for 3rd party drivers but of course I'd still appreciate any further hint.
Thanks so far

NVIDIA Geforce 9400M and Adobe Photoshop/CS5 question

Adobe states that their new software, due to ship April 30, will require a "... qualified hardware-accelerated OpenGL graphics card, 16-bit color, and 256MB of VRAM"
Does the 9400M on the base model iMac and many other models including laptops, offer hardware acceleration to OpenGL?
If I want to buy a new computer to run CS5, do I HAVE to buy the better models that do not have the 9400M? I'm sure the better model (with ATI Radeon HD 4670) would be better, but is it an absolute requirement? Adobe is not sure which models are qualified. I've been making a list of Intel based Macs that surely won't run CS5. A demo version is forthcoming to find out for ourselves. Any hardware geeks or engineers with tech info?

Hi, this is a what I found out: The respective hardware is listed here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/831/cpsid_83117.html
With my white Macbook 4.1 I have no problems to use all features of the regulard Photoshop CS5. Even when running on 2 monitors (I do the actual work on a 23" Apple Display and use the MacBook for my tools)
Even a test with Photoshop Extended CS5 version has worked out but with lousy performance. In case there are people out who like to know, what can be done with OpenGL ... Adobe is great in hiding stuff:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404898.html#updating
Further information can be found here:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404898.html
Also a lot information can be found in the 600+ pages Manual. This is also pretty much hidden. You need to activate the onlin help and than click the text in the upper right corner which read something like "Show Help-PDF (38MB)" ... the wording in German is "Hilfe-PDF anzeigen (38MB)
Or you download it here:
http://help.adobe.com/enUS/photoshop/cs/using/photoshop_cs5help.pdf
http://help.adobe.com/deDE/photoshop/cs/using/photoshop_cs5help.pdf
There is, however, a big problem as soon as several applications use OpenGL. In my case it is EyeTV. I can either view live TV or record it. I cannot do both. Neither can I view a recorded Clip in EyeTV. For me as a non-professional it appears, that OpenGL allows a program to do TWO things at a time which can only be done, if the storage (RAM) is separated). Since Photoshop and EyeTV fight for the same spaces only one can be on first. And Photoshop seems to dominate... the normal view of the picture is produced by the regular chip while the bells and whistles a supported by the graphic chip. EyeTV may even freeze.
By the way, there is an option, to stop EyeTV (and probably other programs too) from using OpenGL.
http://support.elgato.com/index.php?m=knowledgebase&a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=3097
It works i.e. the basics like viewing and recording works but I have decided to use always only one OpenGL-program at a given time.
Last comment - though you did not ask: I have marked under "Finder Information" to open in 32-Bit modus. The program as such works also without this mark but plug-ins like those from NIK-software do not work yet. Their updates are coming:
http://www.niksoftware.com/support/usa/entry.php?view=faqs/generalanswers.shtml#CS5compatibility
I will post my question on a related issue separately = will an increase of the graphic memory to 512MB guarantee better performance or it it also a question, how OSX 10.6 manages the split various memory chips?

Photoshop CC not detect nVidia GeForce GTX 680 after driver upgrade (Windows 8 64-bit)

i just upgraded the driver for my nVidia GeForce 680 graphics card from the nVidia website. the specifications are shown below. Photoshop CC now says that it can't detect my graphics card. does anyone know the solution to this problem?
nVidia verstion 327.23 WHQL
release date: Sept 9, 2013
operating system: windows 8 64-bit
will adobe have to issue an update to photoshop CC to fix the problem?

hey chris,
thx for relplying. i appreciat it. here is what happened. i did an update through microsoft and downloaded a driver for nVidia. somehow that download caused PS CC to stop recognizing my GTX 680. i'm not sure why. subsequent to that, i went to nVidia's website and downloaded the current driver. i still found that PS CC didn't "see" my graphics card. that is when i wrote this post. after i posted this i rebooted my computer and found that everything now works fine. PS CC now recognizes my GeForce GTX 680 with no problems.

Lockups with Nvidia GeForce 8200

I need help trying to figure out why my computer keeps locking up. My computer locks up within a few hours to a few days. 9 out of 10 times it locks up when I'm playing a video. The other times it seemed like it locked up when I was just simply moving the mouse. When it locks up, the entire screen displays one single color (blue or black or green or white or etc). The mouse and keyboard are dead (no lights). I cannot gain access via ssh. The power light and fans keeps running. I can push the reset button and it'll reboot normally.
I'm running Arch64 with the nvidia driver (185.18.31-1) but I've had the same problem in Ubuntu and Fedora. I have a ECS 8200A motherboard (onboard Nvidia GeForce 8200) and AMD Athlon 64 X2 5050e.
I've tried the following solutions I found thru Google searches:
-Reset cmos
-Gave nvida and hda intel their own irq's
-Tried several kernel parameters including:
*idle=poll
*maxcpus=1
*all combos of noapic, irqpoll, and pci=routeirq
*noapic pci=assign-busses apicmaintimer idle=poll reboot=cold,hard
*noapic nolapic
-Changed "init display first" in bios from "pci" to "onboard"
-Ran memtest86+ for 12 hours with no problems
-Ran mprime for 2 hours with no problems
-Updated BIOS to latest version
-Disabled all unused devices in BIOS, CPU/PCI spread spectrum, and Cool 'n Quiet.
-Tried the beta version of nvidia module
-Tried adjusting the cpu voltage in the BIOS but that made my computer unbootable
I don't know what else to try. Any suggestions??

are you using the propriatary drivers? just for sake of troubleshooting you could always try enabling the open-source ones and see if the problem still exists.
i know nvidia's drivers have had off and on issues with memory leaks causing system crashes, dunno if that could be whats causing it, but if it is, it was there in some releases and not others, might be worth a shot trying a different driver version.
The 8200 doesn't work with the open-source "nv" driver. I've tried the beta version of the proprietary nvidia drivers and the 173 version--didn't work. I guess I could try the "vesa" driver tonight and see if my computer still crashes.

Security pb NVIDIA GeForce 7300

Hello,
I hope someone can help me here.
I'm using a 0768-FFG N100 equiped with nvidia GeForce Go7300, and I upgraded it to Windows 7 64bits a few years ago. It works very well and fast, but since a few month I have some trouble with the display which is shutting down and restarting several time an hour.
I think the problem happens because the NVIDIA driver 179.67 installed by windows update is not the best one.
In addition, I noticed that three driver's files called : nvcpl.cpl - nvcplui.exe - nvcpluir.dll are not signed...
Has anyone any idea on how to make compatible my old nvidia Go7300 with Windows 7 64bits ?
I'm realy disapointed because all others components are working well, and I have no money to buy a new lenovo at the moment !
Thanks for your help.
XSJ

I don't think it is your graphics card. My Dell is doing the same thing on my G5 Powermac and my Intel Macbook. It is so intermittent how would you get Dell to see the same problem without sitting there waiting for the symptom all day. OR is it a known fault with Dell?

Nvidia GeForce 9400M makes my MacBook Pro screen blinks

I am using a Macbook Pro 2.4MHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB 1067MHz DDR3.
That's the one with the Nvidia GeForce 9400M and the Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT.
Using the Nvidia GeForce 9400M, as my default video card, seems to make my screen blinks. That is random.
Apple's Hardware Test show no problems.
When I am using the Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT the screen blinks stops.
I am sure that all started after updating to Mac OS X Snow Leopard. I am currently running Mac OS X 10.6.5.
Is this a software problem or there is a problem with the Nvidia GeForce 9400M chip?
Does any is experiencing the same problem?
+the problem withe the screen blinking is quite old. I am mostly using my Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT as my default video card with no problem at all, but I want to be able to use my Nvidia GeForce 9400M because of the better battery life.
Any help will be valuable.+
Tom.

I have the same issue with mine and sadly I missed the date to get Applecare on this machine (they usually call but this time around they didn't). ***** that I didn't get this resolved before my warranty ran out .. I'm certainly not going to shell out for a replacement motherboard out of pocket. I now use the 9600 graphics exclusively and can almost watch my battery drop by the minute.
On a side note I'm not very impressed with the quality control Apple has had with their portables in the last few years. I bought this unit refurbished and it took two units to get one that worked properly, and even then this one never did as it's had this video blinking issue since day one. The problem is I didn't really notice it until recently when I started using it running more often on battery and decided to use the mobile chipset to save battery time. This is the third MBP I've had and their 3rd MBP that's had motherboard issues.
When it comes time to replace this one I'm seriously considering going with a macbook air or something else. Can't justify spending the money on more MBP's with such terrible track records.

Duel Monitor Calibration with the NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT

I have ordered a Mac Pro with a NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT and would like to know whether it supports dual LUT's? I have also ordered two 30" ACDs and would like them both calibrated for photo editing work in Aperture.
Looked at the NVIDIA site but couldn't see the answer.
Many thanks...

In short, no. The only way to get a LUT for each monitor is for each to have its own GPU. Having said that, I have the Radeon 1900XT driving 2-21" LCDs and have managed to get them really darn close with a good calibrator. If it's really important for you, buy a second card.
This is from the Nvidia knowledge base and the answer is the same for Macs.
+"Windows XP detects NVIDIA GPUs as a single processor even if the GPU supports dual monitors. This prevents the operating system from natively allowing two separate ICC profiles from being used on a single graphics card. This is not a problem if a user is running dual monitors and each monitor is running on a separate GPU.+
+Microsoft has provided a utility for users with two monitors running off of a single GPU who wish to calibrate both monitors. You may download this utility from the following URL:+

Any difference between GeForce 7800GT and Radeon X1900 for Aperture?

I keep reading about this Radeon card and I'm curious. Does anyone know if there is a major difference between the Radeon X1900 (for a G5) and the Nvidia GeForce 7800GT and how it affects Aperture? I'm running a G5 dual 2.3 with 5GB RAM and the 7800GT and Aperture is somewhat pokey. Would the X1900 make a big difference with Aperture or not?
AMR

guess I should wait until it comes out and get some
hard numbers about the X1900 performance.
http://www.barefeats.com will be doing Aperture-specific tests that should prove informative.

After effects and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2048 MB

I've installed the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2048 MB on a Mac Pro 3,2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon running OSX 10.9.4 but it seems AE doesn't take advantage of the new hardware and the CUDA technology. The ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB mounted before, went for the same rendering times. Am I missing any setting in the software or isn't the graphic card the perfect choice for fastening my rendering processes?
Ae obviously recognize the Nvidia and the CUDA settings should be ok....
Any Idea?
Andrea

AE only takes advantage of CUDA for ray traced features, which is being phased out. To get the most out of your render times, invest in processing power and RAM. I upgraded to the Titan Black and noticed hardly any difference in my render times. Check out this response given by AE's Todd Kopriva on Sept 24, 2014 at Creative Cow: CUDA does not accelerate : Adobe After Effects

MSI nVidia GeForce 4200 TI driver problem

Hi.. I really need your help guys..
First of all, I have Windows XP Pro.
Okay, I have this MSI nVidia GeForce 4200 TI card, and wanted to change drivers.
I had 50.xx, and wanted to change back to 40.xx, because it works better with Counter-Strike.
So, I went into Device Manager and went into the video card properties -> driver.
I pressed the 'Uninstall driver', because you need to uninstall the newer driver if you want to install an older driver.
Then my computer restarted, and when it was booting, a blue screen or something came up, with text about my computer was deleting and scanning some files(?).
I don't know what it was uninstalling excatly, but when I got into Windows I had to use a 'VGA driver' or something..
I tried to install the 40.xx driver, double clicked the Setup.exe but when it was begining to install this error came up: 'An error occured while launching the setup. (0x80040702)'.
I don't know what it means, but I can't install any drivers for nVidia?!
I tried the Device manager, and I can't update the 'VGA' ..
It's like my computer isn't recognizing the card or something.. I've tried 'Add new hardware' and everything.
Please help me!
Thanks in advance.
P.S. My PC specs:
Intel Pentium4 2.0GHz
Some IBM mainboard
512DDR
GeForce 4200 TI
Windows XP Pro

Generally for nVidia drivers for the VGA, is what I explained above by going to Add Remove programs in control panel and look for the entry for nVidia display drivers.
Since you are asking me this, I fear you may not be at the experience level required to do this as it can be somewhat of a nightmare if all the drivers are not removed completely. This is what you just experienced.
Look at the top of this forum and you will se an Important thread called driver cleaner, by Bonz and then the one above it by me. Go to the DriverHeaven Website and download the DC utility but make sure you read EVERYTHING and understand it before you proceed. If you are confused or not comfortable, then I suggest finding someone that is experienced enough to do it for you.
It should be pretty straightforward.
Good luck

Driver nvidia geforce 680 and 760M
