G4ti4200 it go boom!

Ive installed a Ti4200 128mb in my pc; all was fine (games played and windows found the card fine), the problem occured when I ran '3D! Turbo Experience' to check the card, and I found after a minute the PC switched itself off abruptly. Hmm, I thought.
It turned out that the PSU had packed in, which was of the following spec:
300W
Output: +5V - 35A
+12V - 12A
+5VSB - 1.0A
+3.3V - 14A
-12V - 1A
-5V - 0.5A
I replaced the PSU with a spare one I had lying around which was a 230W, which booted the PC up fine. I then ran the 3d turbo program again when in Windows and was confronted with 2 error messages stating that the GPU fan was running at 0 RPM. No sooner did I go down to check the fan (Which was found to be off at this point), did the PC switch off - killing another PSU.
Any ideas? The mobo I use is an Iwill DDR333 with an XP1700+ Chip. Is it a duff card? Or is there something more sinister going on here? I aint about to go out a PSU yet just in case it blows that one up too.
Help much appreciated.   :]

Cheers Richard, only after reading the bottom of the 230W PSU did I find it only gives a max combined 115W on the 3.3V and 5V. The only thing that concerned me was that the PC seemed fine (Even when running Unreal tournament 2003, and also 3dmark 2001SE); but caused the PSU to pop when I ran the 3d turbo program packaged with the card. Suffice to say I wont risk running the program again, even though my new Enermax 431W is on it's way to me right now :]
Thanks for the help guys.

  • G4Ti4200-VTD64 voltage incompatibility with MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR??

    Hello,
        I have the MSI G4Ti4200-VTD64 (4X) video card..  I want to upgrade my motherboard to K7N2 Delta-ILSR. Is there any voltage incompatibility?? I heard that new mother boards will support only AGP 1.5V. Is the AGP voltage of K7N2 Delta-ILSR 1.5volts??  Is my video card compatible with this voltage?? I really want to retain my current video card as I am quite satisfied with it and I'm not willing to invest on a new one at the moment. If there is an incompatibility could you suggest another Socket A MB with good performance and SATA RAID support.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards,

  • New ipod touch and Harman Kardon boom box:

    New ipod touch and Harman Kardon boom box:
    I must say I am very disappointed that I cannot charge my ipod while playing music anymore.
    I had no problem with all other ipod generations. Can this somehow be fixed?
    While the Harmon Kardon boom box was posted on the apple web site as recommended. And Now???
    Has anyone information regarding this issue??

    I'm having a similar problem with my new touch 3rd gen, with a Sony clock/radio/docking model ICF-CL75iP.
    No sound coming out of the speakers, and no picture or video showing on the radio's LCD screen.
    Sony replied to me that it's intended to work with any ipod touch 1st and 2nd gen but not with 3rd generation. Whose fault it is? Wrong software from Sony or Apple?
    I guess I'll try to downgrade the firmware from 3.1.2 to the previous one. If not then I'm stuck

  • In need of a "Boom box like" sound effect

    I am trying to score a scene where there is music coming out of a Boom box. Is there a plug-in in Logic that I'm not aware that creates such a sound or is there a plug-in that I can purchase or download?
    If anybody has any suggestion on how I would achieve that 'boom box" sound I would appreciate your ideas.
    The only plug in that I know of is Vinyl which creates that scratched record sound, which I don't need.
    Anyway, thanks

    Specifically, I don't know of a dedicated boombox simulator.
    1) Make a CD or cassette of the audio, and mic a boombox playing it back
    2) Make a CD or cassette of an impulse, and create an IR of a boombox playing it back
    3) You could try using some filtering, fast compression, and a very short IR - or something like the bass amp plugin, basically any speaker simulator with good frequency response (unlike a guitar cab) could give you the effect with a little eq

    I need to download an App ( furby boom) but my ipad won't do it because my Ipad is set to buy the the Colombian store and not the US store. How can I change the setting to download this app? Where do I change the setting Of regional stores?

    If you're in the US and have an account in the US iTunes Store, then go here and check the region:
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > tap your Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region
    If you find that it is set to the correct region, log out of your iTunes Store account, restart your iPad, and sign into your account again.

  • G4Ti4200-TD 128Mb Crashing with 3D Games

    Folks
    I am having a problem with running 3D games on on the ti4200 128mb.  I can play for anything between 2 & 20 mins when the system just freezes and requires a hard reset.  Windows XP is solid as a rock, even after many hours of Windows work, and crashing only occurs in games.  I have tried all sorts of drivers from the standard 31.00 to the most recent 41.09.  I have even installed the 27.20's that the MSI website suggests should be tried with my Via KM266 chipset. I always remove the previous drivers using Remove Programs before installing the next.
    I don't think that it is an overheating issue as I have run the shuttle without its case on in a ventilated area.  I know the first thing you are going to say is power supply, but I tried the board in a friends PC Chips machine (mbo 810 with 550 watt PSU) and had the same problem.  Also many review sites (inc PCFormat Magazine) have run high end graphics cards in the Shuttle system
    http://www6.tomshardware.com/howto/20020815/minipc-08.html
    http://www.xbitlabs.com/mobile/shuttle-sff/index2.html
    This is the second card I have tried.
    Here is my spec:
    GFX Card G4Ti4200-TD 128Mb
    Shuttle SK41G (Socket A Duron/Athlon) (http://us.shuttle.com/specs2.asp?pro_id=155)
    CPU: Athlon XP2200+ (Socket A)
    Memory: PC2100 - 512Mb
    Hard Disk: 120Gb (7200 rpm)
    Operating System: Windows XP Home
    Output: 200W(PFC Mini Power Supply)

    well i dont know why its no good in your mates ,but
    a.the 200 watt psu in that never enough for a gf4
     and im convinced running them on low power psu does them no good at all
    b. heats got to be an issue inside that case no matter what you say
     what sort of vga do they recommend
     i would guess its faulty now in some way due to a and b
    the 8mb built in is more like what is designed for
    try a basic geforce to go

  • Iphod usage with harley davidson boom audio

    there are problem on iphod usage (or interconnection) with harley davidson boom audio?

    I had no problem with a iPod Shuffle but I've now bought a Nano and have trouble with the advance feature.  If my Nano is hooked directly into the usb port on my 2014 FLHTK, I cannot use the advance feature.  If I'm connected to the Nano via Bluetooth, I can use the left-hand thumb button to advance to the next song (in shuffle mode).
    I'd like to know how to set the Nano so I can use the Boom! Audio thumb buttons to advance songs when the iPod is connected to the usb port.

    Hi shldr2thewheel,
         it has been a while since we have last spoke, I would like to let you know, I am still working on getting used to the switch from windows to a Mac/Apple system. I do have a new question for you, I did purchase In Design CS5.5 through journeyed.com through Cuyahoga Community College of which I attend as a student, is there a way to purchase an online book through iTunes to learn that as well? Also, you know me, the struggling student, I would also, when and if the book can be purchased through the iTunes, would need to know if you do know of a much easier book for struggling students like myself and at a reasonable price as well for the In Design CS5.5 program. Our campus bookstore had closed early, and, so did the colleges library and our local library here where I do live, so, I cannot go to either place to purchase a book or to take out a book, plus cash funds are low at this moment as well but, I do have money left on the iTunes account to use, if it can be used. So, can it be used, the iTunes money, towards finding a low priced online book? I am in great need of assistance as I have a project due for my one course for this Tuesday, September 4, 2012.
    Sincerely in need of help once again,
    Kim

  • MSI G4Ti4200-TP64 Driver

    I just purchased the MSI G4Ti4200-TP64, Model # MS-8886 from Fry's Electronics.  I am having problems loading the driver on my computer.  I have a SOYO SY-7VCA-E motherboard with VIA chipset VT82C694X, Pentium III 933 Mhz processor, and 512 Mb RAM.  I do know that some cards have compatibility issues with the VIA chipset.  NO matter what I do the driver will not fully load and I get a data invalid  and the computer defaults to the Windows VGA generic driver.  My previous video card was Leadtek Winfast Geforce2 Pro.

    You ´re looking for automation parameter "Tap time" - if you open the automation parameter menue of you DD Plug In you will find a subfolder for each tap from A-Z - at the very bottom you find Tap time which can be automated like any other parameter. It's displayed in Milliseconds so just double the number and the delays will switch from 16th to 8th notes.

  • Has anyone heard of the sonic boom virus hitting macs today

    Today I had a problem with no sound coming from my macbook air. checked and rechecked and then I googled apple support. Called a number and talked to a tech - i thought from apple - he took over my machine through logmein123 and searched my machine. He said I have sonic boom - a very lethal virus. He wanted 199 for the first year so I got off.
    He said it affects macs and pcs on a network. How should I proceed?

    he took over my machine through logmein123 and searched my machine. He said I have sonic boom - a very lethal virus. He wanted 199 for the first year so I got off.
    That was not Apple, that was a scammer. There is no such malware as "sonic boom." I've been tracking Mac malware for years, and feel that I have a complete list (see my Mac Malware Guide)... sonic boom is not on it.
    Unfortunately, since you gave control of your computer to this sleazeball, who knows what might be on your computer by now. He may very well have installed some software to give himself a back door to get access to your machine later, or a keylogger, or some other nastiness. I would NEVER consider continuing to use a machine in that condition.
    You could try scanning the machine with MacScan. I don't have a lot of respect for MacScan, but it can identify some apps that are legitimate but could be misused in a case like this. However, that's probably not the most reliable method for fixing the problem. In my opinion, you need to erase your hard drive completely and reinstall the system. It will be a lot of work, but it's what I would do.
    1) If you don't already have backups, get an external hard drive or flash drive and copy any data you don't want to lose onto it. The safest option would be to copy your entire system to an external drive using something like Carbon Copy Cloner. Then disconnect that drive and put it out of the way until you need it again.
    2) Hold down command-R at startup, and after selecting your language, you will see four options. One is to open Disk Utility. Do that.
    3) In Disk Utility, select your internal drive and erase it. When finished, quit Disk Utility, and you should end up back at the menu of four options.
    4) Reinstall the system.
    5) Copy your data back to the new system. Do not use the Setup Assistant (which will offer to import data from a backup), as the goal here is to avoid copying any parts of some malicious software back onto your system.
    6) Reinstall any applications you had installed.
    If this is overwhelming to you, make an appointment at the Genius Bar at your nearest Apple Store and talk to a tech about this. Explain what happened and that you're concerned about what this guy might have installed.

  • Boom - out goes the hard drive

    After preaching today about the necessity of backups and bootable drive clones I came home to finish some system cleanup and moving some files around on my new (larger) backup drive.
    I decided to do a clone of my boot drive first (with CCC) since it's been a while since I did one. After doing the clone I went to Disk Utility and did a Verify Disk on both the cloned drive and my original MacHD disk. My primary disk failed the verify, and since I can't repair the boot drive I rebooted to my new cloned drive.
    Wouldn't you know - after rebooting, and then finding that even DiskWarrior was reporting it couldn't deal with the drive, the directory structure was completely corrupted and boom - all data was gone after the DiskWarrior repair.
    What a timing, huh. Wow, another day and this would have been much more painful...
    So, I'm currently in the process of reformatting the main drive, and will clone the drive back when it's done and verified.
    But I do have a question. Since I'm running off the cloned drive right now I see that many of my file icons have changed (MS Word files for instance look like a very old icon, not what they were when booted to the main drive) and all of my Apps, except for Apple apps, in the Dock no longer work. I assume this may be due to paths being different in the properties somewhere (my old disk was MacHD and the new one is MacHD2) and that will be corrected once the main drive is rebuilt.
    Does that sound right?
    Thanks,
    -n

    Okay, answering my own post...
    So, the file icons were in fact resolved after the primary disk was restored from the clone.
    But, the broken Dock icons were not, so I had to remove them and drag new ones there. Not a big deal, but seems odd to me why it was only some apps.
    For what it's worth, this was a great disaster recovery test. I basically had a full disk crash with complete loss of boot drive and data, and I was back up and running with a clean system and all data restored within 5 hours. Gotta love it.

    Please HELP!

    Have you tried a different monitor?  (or even hooking up to a TV if your card supports TV Out?)
    It sounds to me like your monitor has lost one of its colours (green, most likely).
    Check your monitor cable to see if it's connector is loose, or if the connector has bent pins.  Try moving/fiddling with the cable where it connects to the monitor / where it connects to the video card and see if the colour comes back correctly - even if for a brief flash - that will confirm the monitor is the problem.
