FX5200-TD128 with AGP 1x/2x BX chipset mobo

hi,
I really need to know this, I'am at customer he wants me to install the VGA card to him MB. He bought to the MSI FX5200-TD128 card to him ABIT BX133-RAID motherboard. This MB supports only 1x/2x AGP... I don't know, this VGA card is backward compatible with this AGP in this MB? In the sysrequiements they don't write anything about AGP port. In other MSI card, MX440 is specified in the syserquiments the min. AGP port must be 4x..... At FX5200 this is missing.
Can I put this card to this MB? I don't want fry it...
please help!
Thank tou

It *should* work, but these cards usually get very hot in 3.3v slots so if this a passively cooled card you might want to put a fan over the heatsink.

    HI, I just bought a MSI FX5200 TD128 and i´m very disapointed with it. The card has almost the same perfomance of the G4 MX440 64MB. I know that this card is a low budget card, but come on! It costs twice the G4 MX440. It has to be at least 30 or 40% perfomance improvement!
    I have another question too! How can i know if my graphics card memory is 64bit or 128 bit? I heard that only the TDR128 has 128bit DDR memory. Is it true?

    Brunomcr,
    Caveat Emptor.
    Do your research before you buy. If you are looking for a good budget GeForce, go with the GeforceFX 5700 Ultra. It is currently the best bang for the buck.
    Take Care,
    Richard
    P.S. About the 64bit or 128 bit, who cares? It is an FX 5200, 128Bit and a huge overclock will not help that chipset.

  • FX5200-TD128 Video Card

    I've just installed a MSI FX5200-TD128 card into my MSI KM2M VIA KM266 motherboard. Everything appeared to install correctly, however when trying to run any 3-D based game I get a some type of failed to initialize video error. (Moto GP and Midnight Club II are some game examples) When going under video settings the AGP mode (1x 2X 4X 8X) is not check and will not let me change the settings. I've completely formated my harddrive and re-installed everything and still the same problem. I am running ME.
    Any Help with suggestions? Could my new card be bad?

    lfbarts,
    Install the following drivers in this order:

  • Mega 180 and MSI FX5200-TD128

    Hi all and thanks in advance for any help.
    I just bought MEGA 180 a some more things, here is my current config:
    Box - Mega 180
    CPU - Barton 2500+
    Memory - 2x256 - 400Mhz from Phoenix Technologies
    Disk - 120 Gigs HD - Seagate Ultraquiet
    DVD Rom - Leadtek Silent
    PVR PCI Card - PVR 350 from Hauppage
    Everything works fine.
    Now I have an MSI FX5200-TD128 Graphics Card and decided to try it out.
    With some difficulty I managed to put it in but now .... the computer simply does not start .. well sort off.  
    Once I hit the power on button three things can happen:
    * Computer starts but the display is not on, and eventually it locks.
    * Computer starts with some gittery on the screen and it locks
    * Computer starts, I hit the del key but I can't even get into the BIOS.
    In either case the OS never boots.
    My question is,
    * Do I need to set something on the BIOS before I install the card such as, increase the AGP voltage or something like that?
    * Can it be that my memory is just BAD for it?
    * Can it be that my AGP slot is just BAD?
    * Do I need to setup the BIOS prior to the operation?
    * Is this just that my MSI card is too power hungry, which I think it strange as it is from MSI, its the latest model of its type?
    Please help me, and again thanks in advance.
    Nuno
    PS: By the way, my BIOS is V3.30 downloaded two days ago from Live Update

    Hi,
    Managed to get it working. Here is what I did in case anyone has the same problem as mine.
    1) Take a memory DIMM out, a let one just stay there. This will get you a memory total of 256 Mgs and your system will now boot.
    2) Get to the BIOS settings.
    3) Choose the option concerning DIMM's and performance (third option I think).
    4) In the third option select Manual. This will allow you to set specific options for the memory.
    5) Select Auto in the option concerning CPU / DIMM transfer rating.
    6) Select High Performance in the 7th or 8th option concerning your DIMM settings.
    7) Save the BIOS
    8) Put the DIMM back in
    9) Start your system and voila it works.
    Best regards,
    Nuno

  • FX5200-TD128 Crashing System

    Straight to the point, then...
    I built a system for a client approx 2 months ago and since that time, intermittently, the system will freeze, screen will go blank, then restart, Scandisk, "Error Report" window.  Configuration is as follows...
    P4 2.8 GHz CPU
    MSI 6728 NEO2-LS MBB
    512 MB Kinston KVR400 DDR RAM
    MSI FX5200-TD128 Video w/ 53.03 Drivers
    Western Digital 80 GB HDD
    LiteOn 52x32x52 CD-RW
    SB Live! 5.1 Sound
    Raidmax Scorpion Case with 420W Power Supply (other PSU specs - now posted later in thread)
    2x case fans
    Logitech Webcam
    Windows XP Home SP1(upgraded from ME - FAT32)
    Customer sent the error report and received a reply back that it was possibly video driver related, so last night we downloaded and installed the latest drivers from nVidia, but problem persists.  It doesn't seem to happen with any particular program or game... sometimes with Counterstrike, other times with Internet Explorer
    My next thought is to try converting to NTFS.  My thinking is that maybe the problem is somehow related to the fact that it was a Windows ME upgrade and not a clean XP install.
    Any help from the experts would be appreciated.

    Computermechanic…….
    We knew…. sooner or later that someone would try telling us that there
    420 watt PSU was adequate, but in reality was inadequate. We hope this
    explanation will help you to discover why your PSU is so underpowered
    and or inadequate!
    You said your PSU is rated @ 420 watts @ 100%, correct!
    Here are the specs you gave, correct!
    3.3v x 26A = 85.8 Watts @ 100%  
    5v x 32A  = 160 Watts @ 100%
    12v x 13A = 156 Watts @ 100%                  
    We come up with 401.8 Watts Total @100%, not 420 Watts !…
    PSU are often very deceiving !   All PSU are Not created equal !
    Even our really old Enermax EG365P-VE 350 Watt PSU has more
    watts than your 420 watt PSU!
    Here are the specs:
    3.3 x 32A = 105.6 Watts @ 100%  
    5v x 32A = 160 Watts @ 100%
    12v x peak 20A = 240 watts @ 100 %
    Total watts = 505 watts, correct!..Wrong!. 505 Watts @ 70% = 353.5 Watts,  
    that’s why it’s called a 350 watt PSU!...  
    Now will take your 401.8 Watts @ 70% = 281.26 Watts, You have a 282
    watt PSU !   Remember again, PSU are not created equal!...
    You said: “your power requirement is only 349 watts” looks like you’re a bit
    weak on those precious watts, like 67 of them! Ya think!  Welcome to the
    real world !....
    PSU… are Not designed to run efficiently @ 100% !…  
    PSU.. are designed to run efficiently @ 30% to70% with 50% being optimal!..
    You said: “13A on the 12v rail gives 156 max watts, more than twice the required
    75 needed for an FX card”. The FX card is not the only component that requires
    12volts, some of the amps, and lets not forget, which equals those precious watts,
    you also have to consider the HD, CDRW, SoundBlaster Live 5.1, 2 case fans,
    floppy drive, MB, CPU fan, PSU fans, NB fan, etc, etc. All these components
    could easily used over 100 watts, Maybe more! Maybe less ! Plus the 75 watt
    FX card, to easily total more than 175 watts! Maybe more!  Maybe less !
    So, if you take the 156 watts from the 12v rail and its running @ 30% you get
    46.8 W, now if you take that 156 watts @ 70% you get 109 W, but now, taking
    that 156 watts running @ the optimal 50% you only get 78Watts!..Understand!
    Everyone here, at our Overclockers club, can’t even believe that your rig would
    boot up and go into Windows, for one minute or two or three or four or five or
    six or even seven!.. Without crashing, lockups or BSOD.
    Most signs and symptoms of a faulty or inadequate PSU, are often or random
    reboots, BSOD, lockups, poor performance, crashing, etc, etc.
    If you’re a system builder, or even if your not, we suggest that you and your
    techs at your supply co., read this post written by clarkkent57 on “Choosing
    The Right Power Supply” [https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threadid=31880]
    and hopefully you and your staff will understand, what we are trying to say,
    your PSU is the issue here! “Its inadequate”!!!!!!

    or the
    Geforce Fx5700-TD128 8x AGP 128MB

    Hi got an Asus 9600xt core speed stock is 500 but can be whacked up well above that, Had mine at 550 and the memory to 340 (680). easy to overclock with the Rage 3d drivers. Gets well into the 4000 in 3d mark and over 32000 in aquamark...Used to use Nvidia but no way now!
    And it runs cool and came with masses of software and half life 2 voucher.
    Spanks the 5700 in every way including price at just over £100.
    But still would prefer a 9800 pro they liquidate all the opposition

  • FX5200 td128 Freeze my PC

    I just bought the MSI FX5200 TD128 TVout and can't install it.  After reboot the screen goes black and freeze.  I tried with the driver from the CD and download the update from the homepage.  ver 56.63 and the problem persist.  Anyone can help me?  I just can get restart in safe mode.
    Spec;
    MotherBoard MSI
    RAM 386
    CPU AMD 1.3
    Win Xp Home

    Can you put the specification of your computer more clearly, for example, what sort of motherboard have u got (model number) please.
    If there is internal video card in the motherboard, have you disable it.
    Also, what PSU do you have?
    Try to upgrade the motherboard's bios the the lastest version.

  • MSI 648 Max with AGP X8 - BIOS update

    I have replaced my old AGP card with Radeon 9550 256MB for use with my new Dell 20" WS monitor.
    Every time, after starting or during 3DMark03, it crashed back to desktop and sometimes retarting my pc.  I try ram settings, aperature etc with no luck.  My pc has TrueBlue 480 watt PSU and the voltage reading is good.
    In the end, I searched this forum and found out it was the problem with AGP X8 so I changed it to AGP X4 via ATI control panel, my pc went through 3Dmark03 with no problems at all.  AGP X4 works flawless.
    Regarding BIOS - my motherboard is SIS 648 MAX-L HT ready (Hyper-threading) and its latest BIOS version is v3.1.  I'm just wondering that is my board exactly the same as non-HT 648 MAX board physically?  Since they use same chipset with same layout and also because I noticed the BIOS update for non-HT version is different with v1.5 and has the fix for Radeon 9700 problem which could be related to my problem.  Since I'm using Pentium 4 2.53Ghz, Hyper-threading is a useless feature, could I flash my board with this BIOS?
    Thanks in advance

    then leave it at that then. the actual real-life performance difference between 4X and 8X is negligible
    Thanks, just asking...I guess I answered my own question!

  • MSI GeForce 4 MX 440 with AGP 8X - No Dual Display?

    Hello! I have just purchased the MSI MX440-VTD8X  based on GeForce 4 MX 440 with AGP 8X. I have the latest drivers and everything but I’m unable to enable the clone option to have pictures on both my monitor and my TV. The option is grayed out. The TV connection is correctly connected. I can choose my TV as the primary display, it’s just that I cannot have dual display! Isn’t my card supposed to have this option? Here is a pic:

    A previous poster (in a different thread) found that if the video card has both analog and digital monitor outputs, then for TV-out to function properly with the VIVO 4-port adapater, you need to connect your analog monitor to the digital output using the supplied digital-to-analog converter.
    I have a new G4 MX440 VTD8X and had a similar issue to the one described here....the TV could not be detected by the video card when connected via RCA jacks (S-video worked, but could not CLONE the monitor).  I moved my primary monitor from the analog to the digital port, and viola, the TV out functions perfectly now. :D

    I think you may find some 8x AGP cards will ONLY work in an 8x AGP slot and are not backwards compatible....
    Can you name any examples? Seems stupid for manufactuers to cut out part of their product target audience.

  • Fx5200 TD128 Dual Monitor Gaming

    Hi, i have a GeForce FX5200 TD128 and i have 2 monitors, 1 on the DVI and one on the SVGA slot,
    I would like to know how can i set my monitors to be able to play fullscreen games on both monitors  

    XblackdemonX,
    The GeForceFX 5200 does not have enough horsepower to play a game on one monitor and you want to play on two monitors????
    The game has to support dual monitors if you want to do multiple monitor gaming.
    Take Care,
    Richard
    P.S. There are some flight sims that support dual monitors.

  • Is FX5200-TD128 (MS-8911) passively cooled?

    I just want to make sure but is the FX5200-TD128 (MS-8911)
    passively cooled as shown in the picture on the MSI website?
    Also does this card have an DVI port which
    can support a resolution of 1920 x 1200 (like my current Creative
    ti 4200) ?
    Perforamce is not too much of an issue since I only want the
    card for 2D but I need an DVI port for my Apple 23" LCD.

    Quote
    Dual, 400MHz RAMDACs for display resolutions up to and including  2048x1536@85Hz
    That's what it says on the product page and the 8911 appears to be passively cooled.
