FX5600-VTDR128: How to change 8xAGP to 4xAGP

How can I change 8xAGP to 4AGP? (FX5600-VTDR128)
I don't find a setting in the Bios (875P Neo-FIS2R)
Display settings shows the different check boxes for 2xAGP; 4xAGP and 8xAGP. 8xAGP is checked but they are all grey out. No change is possible.
Some ideas?
Thanks

Are you referring to the check boxes showing AGP speed displayed in one of the MSI tabs in display properties?
If yes - those I think are there mostly for information.
If you wish to change AGP - try installing the Nvidia "coolbits" patch.  This way you will get an extra settings page "AGP Settings" in the "Geforce FX 5600" tab under Advanced.
You will be provided with a slider to change the AGP rate to AGP8, AGP4, or AGP Disabled.
Hope that works.  If you need coolbits, create a reg file with these contents:
--- begin copy below this line ---
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareNVIDIA CorporationGlobalNVTweak]
"Coolbits"=dword:ffffffff
"NvCplEnableAGPSettingsPage"=dword:00000001
"NvCplEnableAdditionalInfoPage"=dword:00000001
"NvCplEnableClearViewPage"=dword:00000001
---- End copy above this line ----
Save the file as coolbits.reg then doubleclick and answer yes to enter it into the registry.  Wholla - whole lot o extra stuff to set.
Hope this works for ya.

  • FX5600-VTDR128 Restarts

    I have a FX5600-VTDR128 graphics card and a  K7N2 Delta-ILSR motherboard.  The problem starts when I install the drivers.  The computer soon restarts after the installation and will continure to do so every fifteen or so minutes.  After the computer restarts itself for the first time the MSI Clock settings are changed to 2D 54MHZ., 3D has a ? and memory clock is set to 100 MHZ.  When I try to change the settings the computer screen goes blank and I have to shut it off.
    Any help would be great.

    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.

  • MSI FX5600-VTDR128 shows vertical lines and blinking dots even in BIOS

    Just got a MSI FX5600-VTDR128 and tested it with three different mobos. This issue happens in all of them.
    The screen shows blinking dots and vertical lines even in bios sceen, and also in Windows XP.
    This is a random issue, I mean... it doesn't happen all the time, just once in a while!!
    I want to avoid all the RMA pain in the *** as I bought it via Internet, and wonder if there's somthing I can do as flashing bios, testing the card's memory etc... before sending back my card :(
    As it's a issue that also happens in bios I'm afraid this is a bad hardware failure and the only thing I can do is to send my card back, am I right?
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi!
    Well... I managed to change the DVI mode of my LCD screen to normal analog mode and.... BINGO!! no blinking dots and no lines!! :D
    I think I'm going to avoid RMA hell at last!. I'll keep analog mode, as far as I know it's way faster than DVI (16ms vs 20ms) and I'm going to avoid a real hell here :D
    I passed through a RMA with a DDR400 module and I can say it was a real pain.
    I'm into advanced computing (power user 8))since 1994, and I'm really dissapointed about how things are developing. I mean hey! there was absolutely no crap with my 486 DX2, my Pentium 100 & Pentium 120 nor with my AMD K6-III 450Mhz.
    Almost no mem/mobo/vga issues or incompabilities...
    As technology develops, now with DDR400, lots of crappy hardware, lots of incompabilities, RMAs, strange issues, faulty hardware....
    Please note it's just my point of view, but it's a sad  reality...
    Well I'm becoming a doomsayer and pessimist, and I'm having a happy day since I managed to solve my problem so I'll become perpetually overoptimistic happy
    btw I'm from Spain (Europe) and I usually buy from a very big hardware shop because it has very good prices (185€ for my FX5600 card), the downside of this is the shop being 600Km from my city!...
    Have a happy nice day you all!! :D
    PD: pls don't hate me, gfilitti :D

  • 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

  • GeForce FX5600-VTDR128

    Hi,
    I've been looking around for a new GFX card, I was looking for a 256MB card, but noticed the MSI GeForce FX5600-VTDR128 which came with a remote control. The remote sortta got my attention as I noticed it connects to the TV-Out socket (if there is a 256MB card I've missed could you please let me know, thanks!).
    My question: Using the software and calbe that comes with the card (nice software bundle too!) can you use the remote on other (MSI and non-MSI) cards that have the TV-Out socket?
    Thanks for any help,
    Pete

    Hello:
    sorry my english, I speak in spanish.
    I brought this card a mounth ago, the remote controller is not a greatest thing in the world, this is very complete, it has a lot of functions, but the software blunde (included or feature) is to bad, is not fast. I think that I can use the remote controller for everything, but it is not (or I don´t know how do)
    The card have a remote controller sensor with a wire. The conector of this wire is ONLY for this card (or another MSI, but not all MSI).
    I hope help you, if you still have questions, write to me [email protected]
    Sebas.
    I have a question too,
    Is posible to sintonize (tuning) the diferent channels with this card?

  • Problems with X-wing Alliance and FX5600-VTDR128

    I recently switched video cards from a GeForce 2 to a FX5600-VTDR128.  After the change, I've found that the in-mission text in LucasArts' X-Wing Alliance game has become all garbled.  Has anyone else run into this, and if so, have you found a solution to it?  Thanks!

    Hi All.
    I have the same problem here and there are other people complaining about it here in Brazil
    http://pub32.ezboard.com/fcimffrm8.showMessage?topicID=200.topic
    (brazilian forum, please try to translate it using google language tools)
    I bought this card together with a new P4 system and was happy to play XWA again with it. The game runs perfectly except for those unreadable in-game text messages. My english is not to good so I need the text to perfectly understand the mission objectives and hints.
    Well, the game worked 100%  with my old P3 with a Geforce 2 MX for three years. It seems like the problem is known by "professional XWA Players"  but nobody has a fix or a workaround to this problem.
    I tried all patches (v.2.01 and v.2.02) for XWA  and the following drivers from NVIDIA:
    Detonator 45.33
    Forceware 52.16
    Forceware 56.72
    I hope someone from MSI or NVIDIA read this thread  to help verify where the problem resides, and why just FX 5200 and FX 5600 customers are affected.
    In time...X-Wing Racer  and Unreal tournament 2004 Demo works great here!

  • Difference between FX5600-VTDR128 & FX5600 XT-VTDR128

    hey guys, what would be the difference between the
    FX5600-VTDR128 and the
    FX5600 XT-VTDR128
    ive heard that the XT is a slower version of the card but just how much slower? ive looked on google for a few reviews but nothing conclusive..  

    yeah i knew the gf4ti series is better than the fx5600 for the current set of games but anything that utilised dx9 will give the fx 5600s an edge. hence why people ive talked to int he p4 foums here with similar set ups to  mine except have fx cards get lower 3dmark01 scores than myself.
    i just wanted to knwo the real differences between the xt and non xt versions. the msi pages dont have the specifications on the gpu and mem frequencies!

  • MSI FX5600-VTDR128 dual CRT quality?

    Thinking of buying a MSI FX5600. Read a review on the MSI FX5600-VTDR128 at http://www.amdmb.com/article-display.php?ArticleID=241&PageID=5 and he states that there is a ghosting effect when using dual CRT monitors.
    Can anyone confirm and how bad is it?

    http://www.supermicro.com/TECHSUPPORT/MonthlyFAQ/MB/mbfaq0603.htm
    Q: I have a P4DP8-G2 motherboard. I upgraded my video card to a Geforce FX 128MB, but now the SCSI BIOS disappeared and I cannot boot up the system.
    A: This is because the shadow ROM is not large enough to fit both the Geforce card and the SCSI controller. After the Geforce card is loaded, there is not enough shadow ROM left for the SCSI controller. You may want to try some video card that uses less shadow ROM. (HC)
    i know its not your board but as they seem to have an issue with one board perhaps email them

  • MSI FX5600 VTDR128 Display Problem

    I've just built a new PC using components listed below. When I switch the PC on the display comes up with coloured vertical lines every time. I believe its the graphics card. It checks the drives ok and beeps once then continues to boot up. I stuck a Win XP disc in the DVD drive and it started to boot. It even copied files to the hard drive so the rest of the PC must be working. Anyone got any suggestions.

    Ordered it from simply.co.uk. Phoned them yesterday and their arranging to collect and send out a new. Still waiting for the courier though.
    Borrowed a Matrox PCI card from work. Fitted it last night and up pops the ASUS splash screen.   PC booted fine into Linux drive I had in their for testing. Just waiting for the new card now. All I've got to find out next is whether the software activation in XP is clever enough to see the hardware has changed. I'd like to keep my old PC.
    Thanks for your comments.

  • How to change default alerts in iCal?

    Hello.
    Every time you add a new event in iCal, the Info panel of the event contains a series of default alerts that you may want to add to it. However, all of them are useless to me (e.g.: "Send email to <my address> 4 days after), so I need to manually edit them event by event. Anybody knows how to change them? I have already inspected all the plist files related to ical, and looked inside the ical package content, but I found no indication of where to change these values. Using iCal version 5.0.2
    Thanks,
    l

    John: Thank you, this is exactly what I wanted. I was indeed inspecting the plist with bbedit, but what I did not realize is that the file has some parts which are binary, so I could not see the PersistentMenu-lastUsedAlarms part by using a text editor. I opened it with Xcode and I did find what you were saying, and erased all the junk that was in there. In fact, the issue I had was also described here:
    http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Uk/uk.comp.sys.mac/2010-06/msg02349.html
    For some reason, it looks like after some upgrade the program adds were some positive values in the plist and I was stuck with default alarms that were set *after* the events I wanted to set an alarm for.
    I did what you suggested, then added by hand new values to the PersistentMenu part of the plist, and I am now happy.
    For everybody's information, to know what I did, it is enough to know to add Dictionary items to the  PersistentMenu-lastUsedAlarms, with 3 fields:
    -- AlarmTypeKey (this determines if you want a sound, or else an email, or else the other default alarm type keys. For example, sending an email is a Number, value 4; having a message with sound is a Number, value 3)
    -- AlarmDurationKey: This is a Number, in seconds, that determines when you want your alarm to trigger. E.g: -172800 will be two days before. Must be negative for "before", of course)
    -- AlarmParameterKey: This is a String, where you store the value that you want the alarm to have. For example, if you want an email to be sent, the AlarmTypeKey will be 4, as explained above, and this field will contain your email address. Instead, if you want the alarm to be a sound, the AlarmTypeKey will be 3 and this field will have the name of the sound you want (e.g., Basso).
    That's it. Thanks a lot for the solution!

    This could be the same problem other users are reporting as a white screen or black screen, caused by an incompatibility between Firefox 33 and some older graphics card/chipset drivers.

  • How to change the OraSSO login link in webcache/load balance

    Hi
    we have 10gAsR1 installed as a Portal instance. We have 6-server
    load balancer => webcache as loadbalancer (listening port 80)
    Wb ch1 and wb ch2 => webcache (listening port 7777)
    portal1 and portal2 => Portal listening 7778
    infra =>Infrastruture with repository Portal/Oracle SSO (listening 7777)
    This set up is working fine for our intranet setup, now we need to open this for couple of external clients. Well initially we need to open on the load balancer server on port 80 for external team to access, it works fine when we make it publc access.
    Now when we need to make it SSO (siteminder) enables, when users click on login link it first goes oracle sso then it internally redirects the page to site minder sso.
    Well, I have noted that the sso server details are mentioned in global setting sso/oid details. Since we need to open this for external client we have to add a DNS entry for this so that we can allow its access over firewall..
    Now I have made DNS name change at my infrserver level, now I need to update the change at the load balancer server (where wheb chache is running).
    Any one know how to chang the URL at load balancer.
    I am struck at this point please suggest how should i proceed..
