FX5600- tv out is black and white

Hi!
I see this questions very often, but I have never found the answer.
My problem:
I have connected the computer(with FX5600, Win XP) to my videorecorder( because my TV do not have the right input), with RCA-RCA(composite) cable. My video card has an s-video out so I used an s-video to RCA(composite) cable. I have enableded the clone view: analog monitor(primary)+TV. The TV picture was black and white. I read the forum, and found out that I should change S-video output to composite output in nview.
I tried it, but the TV did not show anything. I have already tried TVTOOL without success. My VHS accepts NTSC, PAL-D/K, PAL-B/G.
Could you help me?

Hi!
The original MSI Cable (Mini-DIN to RCA) connects the Luminance part of the S-Video connector to the RCA jack, the Chrominance part is left alone. Sadly, my card gives me
a black screen ich I switch to "composite video" in the settings dialog. I tried some other
permutations of the pins in the S-Video connector of the card, but no success. So I built
this adapter from some other S-Video cable and some old parts I had laying around. The "circuit" (if you want to call it that) mixes the Chrominance part (responsible for the color) back into the Luminance signal (which is basically the composite w/o color). The graphics card stays in S-Video mode.
This is my "adapter" :
Its just sticked together from some old parts I had laying around, the capacitor is from an old electronics experimenting box, I doubt it likes the bandwidth of the chroma signal (stripes in the image). I plan to build it again from brand new high quality parts.
My conclusion: either the card is not able to produce composite video (software problem), or the adapter shipped with it is not compatible.
BTW: I don't speak spanish either, I just built the circuit from the image. But you are right, how can MSI expect such fiddeling from an average user? Maybe they test the cards only on S-Video, but never with Composite. Maybe you could ask in your local electronics store for an S-Video to Composite signal converter (not adapter!).

MSI GeForce FX5600-TD 256Mb Tv-Out, DVI

Hallo!
I have a AND XP 2000+, 512 DDR 266, MSI KT3-Ultra, MSI GeForce FX5600-TD 256Mb Tv-Out, DVI
and a 450W psu. Win XP Professional sp1
I have a problem with games and when i tested in 3dMark.
It's score bad.
3dMark2003: 2312
All drivers are up to date and i have tried to reinstall all components
Can Somebody help me Please? ;(

sorry but the only way you will improve your score is to lose the MSI FX6500. This is a renault 5 in ferrari clothing. It simply does not have the necessary fill rate to compete with even a Ti4200, trust me I spent 2 weeks trying to get it running to spec.
Basically only an Ultra or FX5900 will improve it.
Nvidia boobed on the design of the Graphics processor, the card can throw out frames well beyong a ti4200 capability but because it cant fill them quick enough it cant maintain the framerate.....still dont believe me ? Try thi, run 3d MARK, any version, in 640X480, youll notice that the score doesnt improve dramtically. 640X480 should mean more FPS but still no fill rate so it cant process any quicker.
I am well pi**ed of with my FX5600.

Fx5600 no Pal-N video out

HI everyone
I´ve got a FX500 xt VGA card, and when i try to conect to my TV by RCA, I see perfect image in NTSC, PAL-B and PAL-M but can´t get PAL-N.
When i set PAL-N out, it seen to give PAL-B signal to my TV.
I´ve a friend whith the same card and have the same problem.
Does someone have any solution?
I´ll be gratefull.
Sorry for my english

Hi,
I've already replied to your post in another thread. It's possible that the manufacturer decided it wasn't worth supporting PAL-M and/or PAL-N as they are mainly used in South America, and maybe they don't think it's a big enough market to go to the extra effort to support it
Cheers

Issues with MSI FX5600 cards

In my part time i build computers from a small buisiness i started while in university.
I have several issues concerning the new MSI FX5600 Cards, that have not been completely answered in any post that i have read here in the forums or in the poor FAQ section of the MSI website.
These cards have been around long enough now that MSI should start taking Customer service into consideration and start answering some of these issues that many have mentioned and have yet to get an answer to.
The first Set are Hardware related. Second are Software.
HARDWARE#1 First off is the poor construction of the heatsink/fan assembly on these cards, the one im using now, along with pretty much every one i have seen has large gaps between the RAM chips and the heatsink ( well its not really a heatsink more like a heat spreader plate).
The solution given in this forum is for the consumer to do the work of assembler himself (thats pathetic). So i guess MSI should stamp "some assembly required on their boxes and drop the price some $50 for the time it takes a user to repair this problem.
MSI should hire some good assembly people at your factories! I have installed many cards over the years and by far this is the worst heatsink assembly i have seen, which is quite obviously due to MSI using cheap labour done at a rapid rate.
Or just abandon this one heat spreader plate idea and paste individual passive heatsinks on each ram chip, like Asus and many others do.
And best idea yet is to Recall all your cards and offer everyone a decent heatsink solution to replace this poor design.
HARDWARE#2 Why is there no temperature monitoring on these FX cards? Simple question however i have yet to see an answer. Will there be in the future, or is there no temperature monitoring due to lack of a hardware, or do we all have to go buy thermocouples and connect them to our heatsinks, if we want to know the temp of our cards. Given the above #1 it would also be good to know the temp of the RAM given that many of the chips have no heatsink at all connected to them.
HARDWARE#3 The unit that plugs into the back of the VIVO cards never quite stay plugged in well and are so short that due to a lack of slack in the cable weight put on it by pluging in other cables tends to cause the whole unit to become unplugged. Why not just make that cable a litle bit longer?
HARDWARE#4 (related to above vivo connector unit) why use a (infra red )IR reciever connected to the video card? Why not just supply a seperate ir reciever and have that connected to a USB port or somthing else. Does it really make sense to have IR using the AGP resources? Also the quality of the ir reciever is absolutely the cheapest i have ever seen, and is awkward to place in any usefull position without using tape to stick it it to somthing.
Hardware#5 Cheap Remote control. Lots of buttons on it however most are really useless, and dont work anyways.
Instead of providing these remotes free with the cards, make a good remote remote control that uses RF (radio frequencies) instead of the awfull IR, and that can actually controll common software that people would normally use, or that ships with operating systems like media player etc.. Also why not have it also act as a second mouse like other manufacturers do?
SOFTWARE #1 Lets start off with the IR software or driver, I have used several other IR recievers/software that work perfect within windows. HOWEVER MSI has the absolute worst i have ever seen. The memory leaks everyone has is a perfect example of how poor their IR hardware/software work together. Will you be providing some new drivers to fix this? Or was providing a remote control just a gimmick to try and capture a few early customers?
SOFTWARE #2 the media center is so awfull, due to many reasons here are some.
a) for many people it wont even work to begin with
b) the resolution and more importantly Refresh rate ( 60hz ) is just plain stupid. ( i dont know anyone who can stand looking at a 60hz refresh rate for more then a few min without getting a headache).
c) use of remote control is full of bugs and is limited to this software alone.
d) i have yet to find any way of even adding pictures or other media files to the lists (not that i really care) this just points out the poor user interface.
I could go on about how bad it is, but i wont.
I recommend that MSI re-think their media centre and just get rid of it all together and start from scratch on somthing new. Try looking at what competitors such as ati's software and even Nvidia have as thier media centres. Also just dont use Intervideo's WinDVD and do like Asus and go with Cyberlinks PowerDVD.
c) lack of any monitoring software for video chip or ram heat status. This is related to the hardware comment #2
d) 11 cd's software bundell. Who cares why do you guys hype this if its basically 11 cds of old games that dont even use direct x9 capabilites of the card, or apps that i would question if anyone would even use. Most would prefer a drop in price versus having this large cd set.
Well that is it for now. Normally i would get paid for my ideas and suggestions where i work full time as a product development technologist, But this short list I provide freely hoping that MSI get their act together and make a better product. There is lots of potential there however it would require much more in terms of fixing these bugs that really reduce customer satisfaction and thus reduce sales especially in the customer recommendation sales.
Two last comments not related to the cards:
i) The packaging. is it really necessary to pay for the extra ink to put colorfull images within the inside of the box? could you not use that extra money saved and put it into either hiring better assemblers or making wires a little longer etc..?
ii) There is nothing mentioned in the manual concerning the Remote control its use or that of the media center.
It would now be nice if MSI would plese answer some of the above questions and sittuations and create a new FAQ for this card and have it available within the FAQ section of their website.
Thank you for reading this post.
hope for some improvements soon

I echo these words too. :O

Starting to get upset with new FX5600

OK - I bought a FX5600 yesterday and things seemed OK with a bit of crashing which I figured were teething problems, maybe with drivers (apart from the software thing I've whinged about on another thread). Then I found out that there were these new Detonator drivers out (44.03) so I got them. Then the brown stuff really hit the spinning thing. I can't play anything for more than 30 minutes without a crash now. 'Daikatana' now plays worse than it did with my old GeForce2, even though when I first installed the new card I was bossing UT2003 with full effects. I can't even revert to the old drivers because the install program doesn't recognise my GeForceFX as an NVIDIA chip!!
I figure it might be to do with IRQ type scary stuff. This is what my device manager shows (repeated lines e.g. IRQ 5 are just as they are shown on screen):
00 System Timer
01 Standard 101/102 keyboard
02 Programmable interrupt controller
03 Communications port (COM2)
04 Communications port (COM1)
05 Conexant PCI modem enumerator
05 VIA TECH 3038 PCI to USB Universal Host Controller
05 ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
05 ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
06 Standard floppy disk controller
07 EPSON Printer Port (LPT1)
08 System CMOS/real time clock
09 VIA TECH 3038 PCI to USB Universal Host Controller
09 VIA TECH 3038 PCI to USB Universal Host Controller
09 ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
09 SCI IRQ Used by ACPI Bus
10 VIA USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller
10 CMI8738/C3DX PCI Audio device [my onboard sound]
10 ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
11 VIA TECH 3038 PCI to USB Universal Host Controller
11 NVIDIA GeForce FX 5600
12 PS/2 Compatible Mouse
13 Numeric data processor
14 VIA Bus Master PCI IDE controller
14 Primary IDE controller (dual fifo)
15 VIA Bus Master PCI IDE controller
15 Secondary IDE controller (dual fifo)
Whew. That took a long time to type. Now, I don't understand IRQ stuff beyond what an interrupt is. I certainly don't know which things are safe to be on the same IRQ slot. But it seems to me that all those repeats can't be right - can they? Mainly though, the graphics card is sharing an IRQ with two other things - is this bad?
I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out with this. Is there a problem with my IRQs and if so, what on earth do I do to fix it?
Many, many thanks in advance.

Ross,
APIC is enabled in the BIOS. You do not want to enable since it would mean you would need to install your OS again in order for it to function correctly. On Motherboards with APIC the default is usually enabled. Seeing you do not have it enabled and I am guessing you did not disable it in your BIOS. this makes we wonder if you are running Win98SE or WinME since they do not use APIC? (The only thing you missed listing above in your first post.)
Here is a little more info direct from Microsoft on APIC:

VCR and FX5600

I've been trying to setup my VCR to my computer using the FX5600 card, I've tried every driver possible on the MSI site and on Nvida's site, but no luck. I can get sound but no picture. I'm using both Media Center Deluxe II and Inervedio WinDVD creator (I'm trying to copy old VCR tapes to DVD).
I'm also using the Video In /out convertor that came with the Video card.
I'm starting to think I may have a bad Video card, but I'm asking for you help before I take it back.
Thanks to anyone who can help me.

I'm trying to set up a composite (yellow cable) off of a VCR (trying to record VHS tapes to DVD). I've also tried to setup a DVD player (using S-video cables) just to see if that would make a difference.
However, I've just run into something new. The shop I bought the Video card from suggested I try Microsofts Windows movie maker program. With this program I am able to get a picture (using composite input for the VCR and S-video for the DVD). However the picture is very, very choppy, in fact it seems to freeze just after a nano second. But at least it is a picture.
After getting this picture I tried numerous other cables with no luck.
My system is a:
motherboard: MSI KT6 Delta
CPU: AMD 2.6 ghz
memory: 512 DDR
Video card: MSI FX5600 VTD 256
so I can't believe my system can't handle a VCR tape.
Once again I really appreciate everyones help and fast responses,
Kelvin

Monitor for geforce fx5600

Hello to all
I have a vid card MSI Geforce FX5600 VTDR128 and a monitor that alone it resists up to 800 x 600.
I want to modernize my monitor, what monitor do you think I should buy crt or lcd?
Byron

CRT definitely if you're going to be playing games. The main drawback with LCDs at the moment apart from price, is that you're stuck with one resolution which is usually about 1280 x 1024 even in a 17" screen. I've just bought an EIZO T966 21" CRT which although pricey (it cost me €999) compared with say an Ilyama at around half that price, has many more features. One of the problems I can overcome with this monitor is to automatically resize the display area of MP games that run in 1024 x 768 with anti-aliasing options enabled. If I were to run them in the same resolution as my desktop settings, I would lose the anti-aliasing features. For the benefit of the uninitiated, anti-aliasing adds grey in varying degrees of lightness to the edges of images so that the jagged effect that you normally see is smoothed out. You can't do those things with an LCD monitor though because of the way the liquid crystal performs. Some useful info on the subject here

FX5600 VTD256 camcorder signal input failure

I just installed an FX5600 VTD 256 VGA Card in my new computor with a windows XP operating system. When I try and feed the output of my Sony VX2000 through the TV-out/Video in connecting cable I get no signal. I have tried various editing programs including Vegas 4 but still I am not able to capture any video through the nvideo card. My Pinnacle external video card works fine through a standard USB port. What am I missing?

what camcorder do u have? (model no please)

VTDR-128 fx5600 - No Color Red on VGA plug (d-sub port)

okay, i have a couple other posts here and i've decided to clean up my plea for help a little bit because i've solved the worst of my problems and, being more educated, can explain things a little easier.
i will recap my experiance now:
2-3 months ago i bought my spanking new VTDR-128 fx5600 card from a well known vendor. i was given a period of 2 weeks for vendor RMA, but i waited too long as this card was intended for a system i was building for someone else. when we finally were able to test it:
1: system would crash within five minutes, max.
2: no color red output from the monitor plug (d-sub port?)
3: bad, horrible artifacting in all games and even during low resolutions 2D windows usage. after power off, card heatspreader could almost burn my finger if i touched it.
4: color looked fine on both tv-out dongle and dvi > CRT adapter that came with the card, if only i could boot for more than a few minutes at a time
i wish i had taken pictures, but one day, i was convinced the card was "dead" and i decided to take the cooler off and put it on an older card i have. i carefully removed the cooler front, then back, and noticed on the back, one of the ram chips was a smudge of thermal interface material (in the pins and such, on other components as well)
i was astonished, i jumped with glee, and spent 45 minutes with a fine bristled brush. after many inspections with a magnifying glass, and almost half a can of maxell "blast away" canned air, i put the card in my computer, re-loaded the newer drivers, installed all the msi software, and proceeded to run benchmarks!
i was so happy i could pee my pants. somewhere in the manufacturing process i think something got a little messed up and the thermal paste was smudged. even with hefty overclocks the cooler doesnt feel NEARLY as hot as my old ti4200.
many people have been disappointed with performance from this card, but i am very impressed! i was able to run halo before at ~20-30FPS, now i'm getting 50 and things are much prettier. its added 4000-6000 to my aquamark score, and i went from 11000 to 16000 in 3Dmark2001SE.
the reason i'm posting again is because i want the vga plug to work. nview dualview does not work with the DVI adapter and i use my TV for gaming. so if i want to game i have to deal with the monitor having no color red.
this card has been tried now in 3 systems, with 3 different monitors and the color RED is not visible on any (with the vga plug (d-sub))
i am forced to believe nothing is wrong with my system, and it relies solely on a mistake made in manufacturing. the card overheated and crashed and burnt before i took the heatspreader off, after cleaning the paste off it works perfectly.
so, maybe GlennVidia will be kind to tell me if:
MSI will help me fix or issue a replacement. i doubt this has happened too many times before, i am probably one out of a million buying a graphics card with this mistake.
i've made many attempts at contacting MSI support, and i've read through faqs and KB so many times i could write an encyclopaedia.
do you think MSI would even admit a mistake, i am betting that first they just tell me "i voided my warranty". that makes me want to cry! i emailed them 5 times so far, and they only tell me to "RMA with vendor" and "test in another systems" even after i explained everything...
::sigh::
i'd do anything to get this card working, i love it regardless of it's redless vga!

First step would be to create the necessary entries (easier to make a complete xorg.conf versus xorg.conf.d/##-whatever.conf).

FX5600 VTDR-128 performence

Hey guys, i jsut got HALO for pc and tried it out on my FX5600 VTDR128
it runs VERY slow, so i had to turn the graphics all the way down and need to run it at 800x600. is this just the video cards slowness? or could it be somethnig else with my system?
I have a :
amd athlon xp 2500+ barton
asus a7n8x deluxe
1gb ddr400 ram
80gb WD hardrive
msi geforce fx5600 vtdr-128 video card
benq fp767 17" lcd monitor (16ms response time)
Im jsut wondering, is this the performence i should be having? or is it a little slow?

yup
what are your system specs? what kind of processor how much ram?
i have not personally bought the game yet, but i have read two reviews that stated unless you have a bawlin system running top speed, your framerates are gonna be very unsatisfying. its not a problem with your card or even the drivers, the game was written poorly with mid-range systems in mind. the fact that this is a 2 year old game, makes this situation EXTREMELY disappointing. yes, the developers had to port it over to the PC platform, but if you wanna look at it like that, the XBOX is the closest console there is to a PC. they had 2 years to tweak this game, even with a FEW improved graphical effects, it is STILL running on technology that is 2 years old. GeForce 3 graphics + some more current pixel and vertex shaders, and the game CHOPS like a cooking show on the food channel. very disappointing. maybe there will be patches to the game in the future to deal with this situation. for now, you're stuck like the rest of us unless you upgrade to some serious firepower. sorry, it sucks.

Original BIOS needed for MSI FX5600 VTD256/VIVO

[EDIT] I forgot to mention that when i boot with the FX 5600 the monitor doesnt retrieve a signal and it goes into power save mode. Is this good or bad? Will i still be able to flash it?
A bad thing. But the card is still flashable no matter what the condition of the BIOS within. For example, have a looksy here

GForce4 FX5600 VTDR128

Hi Guys,
i purchased the MSI Gforce4 fx5600 vtdr128 and Neo2-S mobo after they recieved excellent reviews Tom's Hardware Guide. i thought that MSI deserved my $$$. but i've only got one problem with the gfx card. One of things that really got me interested in it was that i could use the Media Center Deluxe 2 to view pix, watch tv, movies, etc. I couldn't believe that when i installed the software, that you needed WinXP. I checked out the FAQ here and it stated that the software is compatible with WinXp only. the OS i'm using is Win2K Pro. To my knowledge, this wasn't noted down in either Tom's Hardware Guide or on the packaging so i'm pretty pissed off at the moment cos i can't utilize that part of my gfx card. Can you guys out there confirm that only WinXP is compatible with Media Center 2 and do you guys have only ideas???? your help would be much appreciated..... ultimately if i have to get WinXp then i will but i think that this is false advertising not stipulating that Winxp is required to run mediacenter2
;(

Hi cmrino
I had the same problem with my TI4200 and the same mainboard as the one your using, what OS are you using and do you know how to boot up windows in safe mode?
This is how I got over the problem.
I downloaded the latest MSI driver via live update after starting XP in safe mode and installed them it cured my problem.
I still don't understand why the mainboard should make a difference to the driver. BTW the blue screen was saying that it was a memory problem or video card but it was booting fine just windows XP had the problem.
If you need more help just ask.
