GeForce FX 5200 Ultra

I recently ungraded my mobo to a MSI 845GE Max. I also tried to install the PNY GeForce FX 5200 Ultra video card. I am running Windows 2000. When I try to install the drivers for the Video card, the system locks up on reboot and the login image is distorted. The PNY FAQs suggest upgrading the Intel chipset, which I have done. Still seems to be in conflict with the onboard vga controller. When I disable the onboard vga driver, the system locks needing a hard reboot. System runs great on the onboard graphics card, but I want to install a 3D card.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks,

Hi gdiodati,
Try disabling your onboard VGA, then set your Init. Graphics Adapter Priority to AGP.
Set your AGP Aperture settings to 128MB or 256MB.
Set your AGP Capabilities to "Auto"
Make sure that its running on at least 4x(1.5v) or max 8x(0.8v).
Check if you've any other devices sharing IRQ with your VGA card.
All the Best... :D!!!

All good!

Which two displays on Geforce FX 5200 ultra are possible?

Hi,
I have a Powermac g5 2x2 ghz (2004) Geforce FX 5200 (ultra?) videocard with two 17 inch monitors. I would like to chance one (or maybe both) into a bigger one, maybe a 24 inch. Is this possible and what is important to look at ? And what is the max screen size and resulution this card can have on two monitors? I red somewhere the max res is 1600x1200 and 22 or 24 inch monitors need support for 1920x1080?
Thx in advance. Ron.

Hi-
The Geforce 5200 supports digital resolutions up to 1920 by 1200 pixels.
A LCD monitor with DVI input up to 24" is no problem.
I red somewhere the max res is 1600x1200
That is for analog, not digital.

Will my NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra graphics card drive a 30" display?

I have a NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra in my G5 that I purchased 3 years ago. A colleague is selling his 30" monitor (about 2 years old) and I wanted to see if this card would let me use the monitor to it's fullest.
Will my current graphics card handle it?
Thanks ...

GeForce FX 5200 Video Card

Hi everyone!
I'm finding conflicting info concerning the graphics card requirement for FCE HD.
I have an original 20 inch iMac with a G5 Power PC processor and a GeForce FX 5200 Video Card, running Panther on the internal HD and Tiger on an external FW drive.
Will FCE HD work with the GeForce FX 5200 Video Card?
Many thanks,

Hi(Bonjour)!
On Apple Support specification for original G5 20" iMac :
http://support.apple.com/specs/imac/iMac_G5.html
We can see:
"NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra with 64MB DDR SDRAM with AGP 8X support"
On Final Cut Express HD specifications page:
http://www.apple.com/finalcutexpress/specs.html
We can see:
"An AGP or PCI Express graphics card compatible with Quartz Extreme or an Intel GMA integrated graphics processor in MacBook or Mac mini"
Quartz Extreme needs at least:spec says:
"Quartz Extreme functionality is supported by the following video GPUs: NVIDIA GeForce2 MX and later, or any AGP-based ATI RADEON GPU. A minimum of 16MB VRAM is required."
FCE HD3.5 application must be installed on your system disk to run without problem, and needs Mac OS X 10.4.6 (Tiger) to run.
So, yes, your iMac can run FCE HD 3.5 .
I Currently use FCE HD 3.0 on my other computer: an iMac G4 17"

MSI's Geforce FX 5200-T128 = FX 5200 Ultra !!

I recently bought an MSI Geforce FX 5200-T128 and decided to OC it and replace the stock heatsink to help the OC'ing a bit. It comes with a heatsink only and no fan. I got this cooler from an old Macintosh machine that could fit perfectly into the GPU. When I open the stock heatsink on the card I was surprised that on the GPU there is "FX 5200 Ultra" written on it. Is it really the ultra version ? If it is, then how come the Detonator (Both MSI's and Nvidia's) recognise it as a Geforce 5200 series only...not ultra ?? I read in the net that sometimes you can make an ordinary card and turn into the ultra ver. by changing the BIOS ! Can someone explain to me about this ? Am I really having the Ultra ver. GPU ??? Can I alter the BIOS so it works like an ultra ver ?? THX ppl......

hi,
i have the same card with you. o/c'd it to its limits [290GPU/464DDR] normally it had to reach 320GPU and 500DDR but the ram on card 5ns soo highest is 464Mhz[i am sorry]. you can o/c it to 320GPU-480DDR but at these speeds;
in 3dmark 2003 wings of furry test it passes some frames like slow cards and 2001SE it crushes on looping 3-4 tests...
when i relased that it is working but graphics are little choppy you can see...
290GPU&464DDR is the best stable solution i could able to find .. i o/c'd it with riva tuner and 3D turbo express .....both gives the same result...

[GeForceFX] Red lines on my GeForce FX 9950 Ultra

I have recently upgraded my Graphics card from a GeForce FX 5200 to a GeForce FX 9950 Ultra. I have had no problems with the 5200 model, but when i installed the 9950 card (which is HUGE!!!) the Loading up bios screen had red vertical lines all over it and when windows boots up it severly crashes and preforms a physical memory dump. The only way to get in to xp is to run from last good known settings but everytime it detects the new card and i install the latest drivers it crashes again. When i put my old card back in (the 5200 fx) the computer works fine??? I have a 650w PSW, the MSI KT6V motherboard, 1024 of ram, 2 X 80 GB hard disks, 2 dvd burners, and an Athlon 3000+ barton processor, and im a novice with computers. Can any one help???? Its it A faulty card or am i plane dumb??? Any help will be well appreciated!!

I went out and got a spanking new 650w PSU for this card when i relised that it needed an extra power surply to it. Im just gutted cos its going to cos me to send it back to the ebuyer. thanks anyway. i just needed conformation incase i was being stupid and missed something obviouse. Thanks for your time and effort.

MS-6340M /GeForce FX 5200 problem??? Help!

I just bought the MS-6340 motherboard with Athlon 1.1 gig processor. I also bought the new Gainward 660/Pro nVidia GeForce FX 5200 128MB Video Card. THe Card is a 8X AGP and the motherboard has a 4X AGP slot.
My problem is that my computer completely freezes up all the time with that card in. I've put older cards in and the PC runs fine. I've currently have Windows XP, but I started out installing WIndows ME and 2000, and it locked up on them all. I have the latest 44.03 nVidia drivers installed. I also have the latest 4.7 BIOS installed for the motherboard.
Has anybody had a similar problem? Any help would be appreciated.

i have a GeForce FX 5200 and i have just a heatsink, no fan, and i overclock QUITE a bit, i bought off newegg.com, a universal video card fan, that works on 5200's, and now i can overclock past fx5200 ULTRA speeds!!!!!! its awesome!!! this fan is a vantec, and also comes with thermal paste, check it out, for $6.05, its awesome! click here - http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=35-110-102&depa=0
or, go with the copper one, little bit more $$ though - http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=35-110-103&depa=0
that definentally should be sufficient cooling
hope this solves your prob like it did mine!!!

Geforce fx 5200 (128MB)is poor

now i using asus v9520 magic/ tv output(128MB),i try 3dmark 2001se just get 4691 only,and 3dmark03 -910
i using detonator 43.51 (WHQL) + via 4 in 1 4.46
i find geforce fx 5200 (128MB)is poor,last time winfast a170 (geforce 4 mx420)can get 4134(3dmark 2001se),the geforce fx 5200= geforce 4 mx 440se
have yours got this problem , or may need wait Detonator fx come out
thanks

This has nothing to do with anything from MSI LOL...
PS i have that Same Exact card and i get 4800 3dmarks in 3dmark 2001 SE. Since its a non ultra don't expect good performance. MX440 can beat it at some points. One reason is that the memory is only 64bit and has half the shaders and textures.

Problem with MSI Geforce FX 5200 & Westinghouse LCM-22W2

I've tried a bunch of different drivers and the highest resolution I can get displayed on this monitor is 1440x900. it's native resolution is one step higher, 1680x1050. Anyone have any ideas as to why my card refuses to display anything higher than this, even tho the latest drivers i have and all MSI's information specifically states that it should be capable of doing so?
Thanks,
-John

here's my specs - if i'm missing anything important let me know.
MSI KT3 Ultra ARU
Athlon XP 2100+ (overclocked, recognized as 2700+)
MSI Geforce FX 5200 VTD128
1 GB RAM
Win XP Home, SP2 completely up to date
The Nvidia drivers are version 6.14.10.9371 released on 10/22/06 - I had a newer version but they didn't fix any problems, at this point i'm honestly not sure why I went back to this version :P - I had the absolute latest version from Nvidia's site, which the release notes specifically stated supported the Non-traditional 1680x1050 resolution, and that the FX5200 was supported by these drivers. Still didn't work.
The GPU Bios is 4.34.20.23.08
Also, upon startup my system was kinda hanging and I would get a notice that SW20.exe had crashed. I disabled sw20.exe and sw24.exe from starting up when the PC did and have no problems. It's not liek I miss them, cus I never used the overclocking functions of the graphics card anyway.
Originally XP was recognizing my monitor as a "Plug and play" monitor. The manual says this:
"VESA Plug and Play eliminates the complicated and time-consuming installation process. Your computer system will identify and automatically adjust the LCD monitor. The LCD monitor uses Display Data Channel (DDC) to send Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) to the computer system, so the computer system can automatically adjust the LCD monitor."
Right now the monitor is running with a custom inf file that PowerStrip (Which I downloaded from a link I found here) created for it. Westinghouse has no drivers or anything remotely helpful on their website.
Also, I'm using a Dual-link DVI cable, the monitor also has a VGA input.

hey guys,
i wanted to ask if the basic FX 5200 is 64 bit then what will those VTD models of the FX 5200 do , it makes no sense either MSI FX 5200 is 64 bit Original and there are no 128 bits ok or it must be FX 5200 Ultra which i could not get cause it was not available only i could find was FX 5700 Ultra which was too expensive or the 5600 which was also expensive this was perfect but each model i found was 65 bit ??? why ?

G5 Second Display using the GeForce FX 5200 - Non-Standard

I have a Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5 Macintosh.
The display adapter installed is as follows:
GeForce FX 5200:
Chipset Model: GeForce FX 5200
Type: Display
Bus: AGP
Slot: SLOT-1
VRAM (Total): 64 MB
Vendor: nVIDIA (0x10de)
Device ID: 0x0321
Revision ID: 0x00a2
ROM Revision: 2060
Displays:

Depth: 32-bit Color
Core Image: Supported
Main Display: Yes
Mirror: Off
Online: Yes
Quartz Extreme: Supported
Display:
Status: No display connected
I want to attach a second display to my machine, but the second plug on the card is a non-standard DVI-type connector. It looks like this:
x x x x x x x x x x X X
x x x x x x x x x x -----
x x x x x x x x x x X X
...with 10 rows of 3 as opposed to 8.
I have had trouble finding an adapter to use to convert this to VGA (which is what I meed to connect my second monitor). I've searched the Apple Store online to no avail, as well as Google. Perhaps I've had no luck because I don't know the name of this part.
Any help is much appreciated!

Hello! Does the port look like the one below? If so you'll need an adapter. Tom
Actually, HERE is the page i was looking for that shows and describes all dvi connections.
