GeForce FX 5900 drivers causing mouse problems

This is a very strange problem, sometimes my mouse cursor seems to stop moving, but I can still move the mouse aorund and click on things if when I see where it highlights them.  This happens with 3 different mice all the same result 2 the same manufacturer and 1 different it also doens't matter what drivers I use for both mouse and vid card.  I've tried MSI, Nvidia, and Omeaga drivers for the vid card, and tried stock windows, microsoft, and logitech drivers for the corresponding mice.  Now if I let it sit long enough like that it gives me a BSOD that states the problem resides in nv4_mini.sys.  does anyone know anyway around this or should I contact Nvidia directly?  Thanks in advance Ryan

Camaro Guy > Im using a ASUS A7N8X-X motherboard
I thought I may have been my PSU that was not powerfull enough (300W, I have 2 extra 80mm fans installed also) But after seeing that you use a 500W+ PSU, that cant be the problem.
Have you tryed using a older forceware driver ?
And btw, im refuseing to degrade my hw accel. in propeties, might as well have bought a Fx5200

  • MSI 6670 MD2GD3 causing mouse problems in Windows 7 x64

    Hello! I bought a new PC and I`m experiencing a very annoying bug. My configuration is: CPU: AMD FX 8350, Motherboard: Asrock 990FX Extreme 3, 16 Gb Corsair DDR3 1600, Kingstong HyperkX 3K SSD + WD Caviar Black 1TB HDD, Graphics card: MSI 6670 MD2GD3 and a 550W PSU.
    I installed Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on it. Everything loads up very smooth and fast but the mouse is driving me mad!  After alot of testing with different mouses and different components i changed the graphic card with another one, from a friend (different brand). The problem went away... until i put my HD 6670 back in. What happens exacly is... the mouse behaves as if it sticks on clickable objects (links, buttons, etc). It lags for a fraction of a second than jumps to where i am trying to point it. It also freezez for a short moment when i open some programs. It doesn't do this everytime but it's very annoying... it ruins the whole experience of using a new PC  I have all the latest drivers and BIOS updates... The temperature of the system is more than ok... I can't find another explanation apart from the video drivers... Can anyone pls help me?

    The other video card was an old Radeon X800 GTO on PICE. The PSU is actually 520W, it's Booster SPS-520... i think it's a normal ATX psu. I am begining to think it's more and more a driver related problem... X64 driver problem to be more exact (i tested the video card on a Windows 7 32 bits setup and everything was ok). But on my 64 bits Windows, when i try running a program that is just a bit demanding for the first time... the mouse freezez for half a second while the program is loading. For example... after i turn on the PC... (i give it time to load up)... when i launch Google Chrome the mouse freezes for half a second. I did alot of testing around (i`m obsessed with this problem  ) and it turns out that the lag is much smaller if only one dispay is connected to the PC. Usually i have my tv connected to the PC as well, through a HDMI cable... and it's set to duplicate. Anyway, like i was saying, the freeze take less time when only one display connected, but it still freezes :(. Another strange thing: before instaling the video driver, when it's runing on Standar VGA driver, i can open Google Chrome for example and there's no freeze, everything loads up perfectly :| Is there anyway to fix this? Do u think the store i bought my video card from would accept it back if i pay off the difference and buy a more high end card from them? :(

  • Charger causes mouse problems

    Hello - I guess this is both two questions and a warning.  I use a 11" MacBook Air  with Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5, purchased in October 2011.  I am in a town in Kenya with no Apple Store.  My charger got fried during some power fluctuations yesterday and I needed a new one quickly for a variety of reasons.  In town I found a knock-off that seemed (and seems) to work fine with respect to charging.  Got home, began using computer while charging.  Within a few minutes I noticed my mouse (the mouse built into the computer) was behaving oddly and not working so well.  Within an hour it was barely working at all.  Restarting helped the situation for only a few minutes.  I tried unplugging the charger and, voilà, the mouse worked (and works as I now write) perfectly.  So the warning … you can figure that.  The questions: How could a battery charger affect a mouse?  If I charge only while not using the computer can I expect any problems?  Thanks.

    1. Restart
    2. Shut down the computer.
        Clean the trackpad with moist not wet microfiber cloth.
        System Preferences > Point & Click
        Try turning off three finger dragging and then turning it on after  testing.
    3. Is there any Bluetooth device nearby with failing batteries? If so, replace the batteries.
      4. Reset PRAM:   http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14222
    5. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • Printer causing mouse problem?

    I have a Beige, but recently was given an early G3 iMac, 233mhz processor, 288mb ram.
    I successfully installed OS 9.2.2 (starting with an OS 9.1 iMac disk..........the iMac had 8.6 on it) and updated the firmware; removed the hard drive, hooked it up to my Beige and copied some applications onto it.
    Everything works fine, except:
    When my Brother printer (USB) is turned on, whether plugged directly into an original USB port or through a powered hub, the mouse icon still shows and moves, but clicking it does nothing.
    This does not happen with the Beige. The printer works just fine plugged into the USB card or hub.
    I have tried 2 mice and two keyboards; I have removed all the Brother software and extensions from the hard drive and reinstalled from the Brother CD. I have gone to Brother's website and looked for updates....nothing.
    Any ideas?

    I'd check out the Brother CD for any 'Read Me' files which may list incompatibilities or odd behavior's.
    Um... clutching at straws now but... any uneccessary printer extensions loading? Like Laserwriter etc? Maybe trash the mouse or OS preferences? I doubt they're the culprits but it's not like you'll be killing anything by trying it.
    Perhaps a bare mimimum extension setup with just the OS & Brother driver/extension to see if the same problem occurs or.... I don't know, is it possible to print without the brother driver? I know the Mac OS has a standard printer driver but I thought that was just for the laserwriter and for background issues. I may be totally barking up the wrong tree on that.
    In fact, I'm sure that's the silliest idea I've ever suggested here. I'm getting forgetful, wasn't it all easier when we used calculators and typewriters like Angela Lansbury?

  • Beta doom 3 drivers causing any problems for anyo

    I'm tempted to try the creative beta drivers for doom3, but use my computer to play dvds, listen to music, etc., so I don't want to mess up any of the other parts of the driver. The beta description has this warning:
    [*]Some Creative applications such as Surround Mixer, THX Console, and Creative MediaSource? may not work properly with this beta driver.</LI>[*]Refer to Readme file for more information.</LI>
    Of course, you can't get to the readme unless you install them. Are they working for people out there? Should I try them, or wait for the update?
    Can I install the newer driver (from May 2) on top of them, or will I lose the beta driver benefits?
    Thanks!
    Message Edited by zipr on 06-02-2005 03:36 AM

    The may 2th driver PACK is nothing more then what it says - a pack of previous drivers. It does not however include the enhancements included in the beta driver, so in essence the beta driver is the newest driver you can get. I have had no problems with the beta driver at all.

  • Direct 3d problem with my Geforce FX 5900

    It won't run any 3d applications and leaves my $3000 computer with the only purpose of complaining on online forums.
    I've tried with the original drivers
    I've tried with the updated drivers (45.23)
    Here are my system specs:
    Pentium 3.0Ghz w/ 800Mhz bus
    D865PERL Motherboard
    512 PC-3200 Kingston Hyper x RAM
    Audigy 2
    420w power supply
    and the MSI Geforce FX 5900 VTD-128

    I uninstalled my old nVidia drivers under Control Panel/ Add/Remove Programs...then I ran Driver Cleaner to clean all old drivers off of my system *see the sticky post at the top of the forum page here*...then I turned of the puter took the old card out, put the new card in, started the puter and installed the latest driver from nVidia's website. Worked like a charm!
    Yes and a neat little story behind this mouse....
    I bought it cause it was awesome I thought, got home, hooked it up, charged it for a night, used it for a week and then it died...so I figured out that the charger wouldn't charge the batteries from the base so I went and bought a separate charger and a few sets of NIMH batteries. Used it for about a month that way then tried to take it back one day to Best Buy where I bought it from. Yea Best Buy alright heheheheh They told me that I hadn't bought the extended warranty for the device and now I'd have to go back to the mfg to get it replaced...so I called Logitech. Got Tech Support on the phone and the guy made me jump thru hoops and stand on my head and all that fun stuff that we do to try to make it work. Then he said well what's your address? I gave it to him. He said you'll have it in a day or two. I said Have what? He says A whole new mouse. I get this puzzled look on my face...I say So should I ship this back when I get the new one? He say Nah keep the old one and enjoy. So now I have the working charging base that has one of the mice in it charging while I use the other one until the red light flashes to tell me it needs to be charged. Then I just take the other one out of the cradle, put the dead one in, push the button on the base, push the button on the bottom of the charged mouse and voila! I'm back in business. And I can do it even if I'm in a game and it doesn't crash my game!! How's that for a success story when all you usually hear here is negative? heheheheh

  • Firefox 6.0.1 causes extreme problems with ATI Catalyst 10.x drivers on a Win7 x64 system. When I roll back to Firefox 6.0, no problems. Can this be resolved?

    Firefox 6.0.1 causes extreme problems with ATI Catalyst 10.x drivers on a Win7 x64 system. Took me quite awhile to identify, but when I roll back to Firefox 6.0, no problems. Once Firefox recognizes this and reinstalls the 6.0.1 update then severe display driver problems occur causing very erratic display behavior and ultimately rendering the system inoperative. The problem appears to occur within a minute or two after Firefox has been opened and it occurs even if Firefox has been subsequently closed prior to the actual event taking place. I have attempted this 6 times just to ensure that the problem was associated with the 6.0.1 update.

  • Weird mouse problem (clicks not being performed, -)

    Recently I am suffering from a really weird problem.
    The middle mouse button shows a really strange behaviour:
    I'm using KDE from [extra], and middle clicking e.g. a link in a webbrowser (no matter which toolkit it uses) instead of opening one tab, opens the link in several tabs.
    Also middle clicking on a tab, normally should close *one* tab, while here it often closes more than one tab. Since this happens in every application I use, no matter which toolkit is used, this cannot be a KDE/Qt problem, since e.g. Firefox is affected by it too. I also doubt that GTK is the cause of this problem…
    [The middle clicking problem has been solved, by cleaning the mouse wheel]
    [The problem below, still persists]
    Furthermore, sometimes my laptop looks like it enters a "state", where my clicks are not "performed" the normal way:
    E.g. I had a media player running, when my laptop got into this "state". No matter where I clicked on this app, the clicking action was performed on the Play button. Using Alt+Tab to focus another window/bring it to the front, and clicking in this window anywhere again resulted in the Play button getting clicked.
    After quitting the media player app (through a keyboard shortcut) my clicks still did not work normal. They still simply were not performed. In order to "re-gain" the ability to click, I had to log out first.
    Since I've setup my Arch Linux not to automatically start X/KDM after logging out, I found myself in the terminal, where I ran startx, in order to run KDE.
    The terminal still had some output of my X session, but it wasn't displayed with normal characters, but rather with some weird characters, looking all scrambled and stuff, as you can see on the screenshot. http://imagebin.org/100067
    I currently use the packages from the testing repo, but IIRC this behaviour was there even before installing the testing repo packages.
    Extra information:
    kernel26 2.6.34-1
    xorg-server 1.8.1-1
    nvidia 195.36.24-2
    xf86-input-evdev 2.4.0-1
    I run Arch Linux x86_64 on an Acer 5741G Laptop, with a NVidia Geforce GT 320M.
    Interestingly, another user who suffers from the same bug is running a computer with intel graphics, so it probably is not the nvidia driver causing the problem either.
    Originally the bug was reported as a rekonq bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=238987

    Hello,
    I seem to suffer from the same problem. Sometimes (perhaps triggered by amarok, but I have to investigate this further before blaming this app) the left mouse button stops working. I can not perform left-klicks anymore. Everything is fine with the right button. If I log out and in again the mouse if fully back. In this loop X has not been restarted.
    My setup:
    KDE 4.4.5 (official packages)
    X: X.Org X Server 1.8.1.902 (1.8.2 RC 2)
    kernel: 2.6.34-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT
    architecture: x86_64
    mouse: Logitech MX1000 Laser (Logitech, Inc. MX-1000 Cordless Mouse Receiver)
    If s.o. will ever work in this I will be happy to provide any information I can come up with.
    Cheers and good night.

  • What to change to attempt to fix mouse problem

    Hello!
    Ok, so I have a bit of an annoying problem with my mouse,
    The middle button is a scroll wheel, but when I click it (trying to get the middle click for new tab in firefox / pasting accross terminals, etc) it quite often double-middle-clicks!
    Now admittedly it's not the most unbearable problem in the world but I'm feeling adventurous and am curious as to where would be the best place to start?
    I was thinking maybe locate the mouse drivers and try to add some kind of delay for clicky events so only one click could be interpreted in x milliseconds.
    Any pointers as to where I could start?!
    It's a Typhoon Sureshot laser USB mouse.
    Thanks!

    Is that uploading done via a regular Browse button like you see on this forum to add an attachment or is it done otherwise e.g. via a plugin like Flash or Java?
    Did ATT support manage to do this with the current Firefox release?
    You can try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

  • GeForce FX 5900 XT, DirectX 8 & 9 games hang -- solved.

    This was my original posting:
    I have recently bought a MSI GeForce FX 5900 XT VTD128. To my surprise I have exprerienced numerous crashes in games that use DirectX 8 or better. The games pauses and I get a blue Windows XP (retail version - 5.1.2600 - , without Service Pack 1) crash screen that says the game was stopped to prevent any damage to Windows and some things I should check (wich I did) and in the technical part:
    *** STOP: 0x0000008E (0xc0000005, 0xF7D83E2D, 0xBA2DC29C, 0x00000000)
    *** nv4_mini.sys - Address F7D83E2D base at F7CD9000, DateStamp 3fb91de8
    Those hexadecimal are not within the range of memory addresses the VGA card uses.
    I get the error with Freedom Fighters, GTA Vice City, GTAIII, Crazy Taxi. The latter crashing much more than the former.
    I tried ePSXe (the playstation emulator) using Pete's OpenGL 2 vga plugin, wich uses T&L and pixel shader and I had no problems.
    Games that use OpenGL or DirectX 7 or less seem to work fine. This was checked with Quake III and Severance: Blade of Darkness.
    DirectX 9.0b tests on DirectDraw and Direct3D found no problems, plus all the files are OK.
    Afterwards a friend who works repairing PCs, recommended a clean install with the latest drivers for the motherboard as well as the lastest 53.03 vga drivers (MSI version). All this to no avail; I get the same message.
    I've also tried vga drivers 52.16 and 53.06 (Beta), as well as disabling Fast Writes in the motherboard BIOS.  
    A web search only lead me to some driver pages. MSI have no troubleshooting help about the matter, at least that I could find, neither in the manual nor the website.
    I have tried using my old NVidia Vanta again and GTAIII works perfect.
    Both cards use IRQ 19 and don't share it.
    I've noticed that DirectX acknowledges different files to both VGAs. Vanta's principal controller file is nv4.dll whereas 5900's nv4_disp.dll. The small VDD files are nv4.sys and nv4_mini.sys respectively.
    Also nv4_disp.dll has no digital signature while all the others do.
    Is there any diagnostic utility I could use to better pinpoint the problem I'm having?
    Thanks for reading this far.
    After this cry for help I didn't want to wait for a star to fall so I kept on doing homework. I delved deeper into the forums and found in the mobos forum a thread with a reply that said that bios 7.40 for K7N2 delta-ILSR solved an incompatibility issue with Geforce FX 5900 and another with a way to clean the remains of uninstalled drivers.
    I was not up to flashing the bios yet so I tried the vga in two other different PCs.
    The first one had Win98 with a  mobo M810MR with DIMM RAM. It worked awfully. It crashed when double clicking an icon, didn't run many games and even didn't pass the DirectX tests. That with 4X.XX drivers (I don't quite remember the version). With 53.03 (MSI version) I wasn't as unstable but still had many problems.
    Another PC entered into the scene. One with WinXP and Linux, as well as a KT2V PRo Dual with DDR RAM. In WinXP still couldn't run any games or 3dMark. It even rebooted it a couple of times, just out of the blue. In Linux it worked fine but didn't try any 3D games (didn't have any). It was detected as a Generic GeForce FX though.
    Before sending my vga to another region of the country (something I wasn't very prone to do in the least, as I had to pay for sending and retreiving it) so the vendor could try it and replace it (if he found it faulty).
    THE ALMIGHTY SOLUTION: for those too eager to stand my babbling this is what worked.
    I flashed the bios up to version 7.60 and uninstalled the drivers and used Driver Cleaner. It works without any problems now. I tried it in my other 'test' brand new WinXP install without using Driver Cleaner and it seems that flashing the bios was enough. Although I would recommend using it.
    Well, that's all. I thought it could be useful to have all this in one piece.
    Thanks to all that cared.

    You guys didn't read the post fully SPAMMERS
    He solved his problem by updating the BIOS to the latest version, he has the nVidia Chipset based motherboard and there was a known issue related to the FX series video cards. This is nForce specific.... period

  • Animations Cause Mouse Cursor to Blink

    I just upgraded my video card and am now using the <code>nvidia</code> drivers (I also upgraded my monitor to a Dell Ultrasharp 2005FPW at the same time).  Ever since then, my mouse cursor blinks when either doing animations like the typical hourglass (wait cursor), or when I happen to be hovering the normal cursor over an animation (like the loading screen of Xfce, for example).
    The cursor blinking doesn't really cause any problems, but it is somewhat annoying.  Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

    Add "Option "HWCursor" "off"" in Device section (where your GPU is defined) of xorg.conf.

  • MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR, Mouse problem & Video off problem solved!!!

    I find the following information that I collected very interesting at the very least...
    Here goes...
    The video off problem that I was having was directly linked to the mouse. Here, let me explain the video off problem. In the BIOS Have the Standby mode set to S3. The problem occurred when I started windows, then went into standby, then started back up, then restarted the computer, the monitor would act as if it were in sleep mode, or rather there was no signal being sent to the monitor. Well the odd way I fixed that is by plugging in a standard 2 button PS/2 mouse. Also this fixed the issue with the mouse sometimes not working in windows.
    Here is how I tested.
    Logitech MX700 Cordless Optical Mouse, PS/2 & USB= failed.
    Logitech iFeel Optical Mouse, USB= failed.
    Microsoft Cordless Ball Mouse, PS/2= failed.
    Standard Artec (Cheapy brand) Ball Mouse (With no wheel), PS/2= All issues fixed, and passed.
    When I said failed I do not mean they didn't work, I mean they sometimes didn't work and also caused the Video off problem after restarting the computer.
    Obviously it isn't the ports (PS/2 or USB) that are the problem, it is more like the mouse itself, and the amount of buttons in particular. As you can see above the only mouse that works correctly is the one that only has 2 buttons, the rest has 3 or more buttons along with a Wheel. The MX700 has 8 buttons + wheel, WOW!
    Anyways I figure out it was the mouse, and not the memory.
    Obviously MSI needs to make a patch for this mouse problem.
    I'm still having a hard time believing that the mouse caused the video not to work, but it is true! I spend well over 5 hours testing this crap. Every time with the mice with more then 3 buttons it messed up, and every time with the 2 button old fashion mouse it worked flawlessly!
    MSI, get to work on a new BIOS to fix this mess!!!  :]

    bye
    LOL, that isn't what I'm talking about.
    There seems to be a problem with my motherboard accepting mice with more then 2 buttons. It works the first time, but if you restart the computer, the video goes off. If you have both installed, it still messed up.

  • IMac Nvidia GeForce 8800 GS Drivers

    I am running XP Professional via Boot Camp. I run XP so I can play America's Army since it is a Windows only based game. The problem I am having is when I expand Americas Army full screen it completely locks up my iMac and I have to hold down the power button to reset it.
    I have been told by several people that the problem is from the Nvidia GeForce 8800 GS drivers. I tried to up date the graphics drivers from Apple's and Nvidia's website with the latest driver. When I try to install the graphics driver from the setup file, it gives me the following error.
    "The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit."
    Here is the location where I downloaded the driver from.

    Here is a link to America's Army on the support forums.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Hey guys,
    I encountered problems renaming the nv4 disp file that allen sent me (drivers still would not install)...so instead of replacing the original nv4 disp.inf file in windows, I opened the nv4 disp file allen sent me, copied the text, and pasted it in the original nv4 disp file in the NVIDIA folder after deleting the text of the original file and saved it...after that, the new drivers installed without a hitch...have yet to test whether or not the infinite loop is gone or not in Age of Empires 3 though...will keep u updated...thx for the file allen!
