Geforce FX5600(256MB) Questions

Hi,
I just purchased the GeForce FX5600 card model number FX5600-VTDR256 and have some questions regarding the card.
I have already read through the forums and could not find any answers so here's a new post.
I wanted to know 3 things.
My First question:
On the back of the box it says E3:Fan Speed Monitoring and Warning
I can't find the software through with which I can monitor the fan speed and
temperature of the card.
Please help!
My Second question:
My card has a Video_In option, I managed to attach my TV and the card through the Video lead and now I can Watch TV through the Media Center in WinXP.
Now is there a way to surf channels since my TV doesn't support S-Video
leads and the Video lead doesn't surf channels.
My cable TV doesn't come with a digital box or anything, I just get a RF connector lead that goes in the back of the TV and I scan for channels through the TV.
My Third and last question:
When I install the Media Center II in Windows ME, at the end of the
setup I get an error message saying the WINDex.dll failed to self-register.
Afterwards when I run the program in Windows ME, I get a Director Script
error and have to quit the program.
Could anyone please guide me as to what I should do.
Please help me out, especially regarding the temperature problem and the
Media Center problem in Windows ME.

temperature of the card.

It should be in the nVidia settings under the advanced button and the slide out menu, should be the last one down, called temperature settings. You could try using the 3d Turbo Experience but it can be troublesome and bulky. I prefer to use Drivers from nVidia and the Coolbits Registry hack for the clock features
My Second question:

Don't really know the answer to that for sure but I would try using a VCR as your tuner and use the VCR's remote to surf. Perhaps someone's got a better answer ?(

Have you been here to download the latest?

It only says XP 2000, I have looked on every page but all the links point to the same file, it is an upgrade to Version 3, Maybe it will work, if not I will ask if there is an update for ME.

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.

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?

Help installing a MSI NX7600GS-TD256 GeForce 7600GS 256MB

Hello,
I was recently given this video card by a friend... MSI NX7600GS-TD256 GeForce 7600GS 256MB 128-bit GDDR2 AGP 4X/8X Video Card. The problem is that it didn't come with any installation instructions. I'm putting it in this motherboard http://www.foxconnchannel.com/product/Motherboards/detail_spec.aspx?ID=en-us0000114.
I know the graphics card is compatible with the motherboard. My question is do I have to connect the graphics card to the power supply in my computer.

gallienus,
Also next time please list your specs so we can get the full picture of what is in your rig.
This will also give us a chance to point out any issues which might be a problem for you.
Take Care,
Richard

Will my Airbook (11" late 2010) w/ NVIDIA GeFORCE 320M 256MB using the Mini Display Port to Dual-Link DVI Adapter support the Dell 3007WFHC (30") monitor at full resolution (2560X1600)

Works fine at 1280X800 (with out without MDP DL DVI Adapter) - cannot get any higher resolution

Hi ddickson01,
The MacBook Air 11 inch late-2010 model does support 2560 x 1600 resolution on an external display. See this specifications article for reference -

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

GeForce FX5600 128 - Causes BSOD and STOP Error

Hi everyone,
I recently upgraded my Fathers computer from Win ME to XP (SP1), and I now cannot run Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004. It ran perfectly under ME, and I haven't changed any hardware during the upgrade.
As soon as the game starts (plane on the runway) I get a blue screen and a 'STOP' error: *** STOP: 0x00000050 (0XC967C967, 0X00000000, 0X8053CDD1, 0x00000000)
By turning off all 3dfx functions in the game settings, or by turning off hardware acceleration in Windows we have managed to get into the game, but the graphics are poor and so slow its unplayable.
Apart from this, the system is working perfectly with no other problems when running normal windows apps. I have no other games to try the 3dfx functions on.
The hardware configuration is:
GeForce FX5600 128 graphics card
512 mb RAM
AMD Athlon 1.4Ghz processor.
The software configuration is:
Direct X 9b (same version as was being used to run the game under ME)
Nvidia drivers tried:
Nvidia VGA Driver 61.77 for Win XP/2000 (not WHQL)
Nvidia VGA Driver available through windows update (WHQL – though I can't remember the driver number)
Also tried an old driver 43.?? that came with the video card. The problem is always the same.
I have run dxdiag and initially it told me that the 61.77 drivers were not WHQL certified. After then running windows update it downloaded a driver which shows as WHQL certified (I do not know the version of this driver), I ran dxdiag again, and the system reported no problems. I successfully completed all direct draw and direct 3d tests under the dxdiag program, with no problems reported.
I have been in contact with Microsoft FS9 support initially, who later passed me to the operating system department as they had no luck in finding the fault. They tell me its a hardware issue and I should contact the manufacturer.
So far I have tried creating a (completely bare) parallel Windows XP installation and running the game in that, again the same problem occurs.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to resolve this problem? I have an opportunity this weekend to remove XP and go back to ME, which I am planning to do unless anyone has any thoughts on how I might fix this issue?
Many thanks in advance, John

Been running the Memtest86+ overnight on one stick and it came up with some 1690 errors...
Just stuck the other in now and leaving it run for a couple of hours... Not holding my breath though. Already sent my supplier an email to expect them in the post for a refund. Time to go down the old branded RAM route. Any suggestions for rock solid RAM that won't break the bank?
Thanks once again fellas,
Niels

Geforce 7600GT 256MB Upgrade

HI,
i have a Power Mac G5 2Ghz 8 Ram Slots and i´m not sure if this Geforce 7600GT 256MB will fit because of not knowing what Slots PCI-X PCI-E i have in my Mac.

PCI-X (PCI Extended) and PCI-E (PCI Express) are not the same. In fact, they're quite different and physically incompatible with each other.
I don't see anything in your original post that would tell us for sure which type of slots you have. You could have the Late 2004 model like DaddyPaycheck stated, but the Late 2005 G5 (which is PCI-E) also fits your description. In any event, take off the side door and look at the sticker that's down near the bottom underneath the plastic air deflector. It will tell you what type of slots you actually have.
Also, the 7600GT was never an option for the Mac. You must have a PC card that you're trying to install. Due to differences in the ROM on the card, that card will not work in a Mac, even if it physically will fit.

NY GeForce 6200 256MB Graphics Card

Will a NY GeForce 6200 256MB Graphics Card work on mac with a PCI slot?

Well, Its a power mac G5. Its a single processor with 1.6 ghz. Now the first card i saw doesnt look like mine. The plug ins dont match.
Are you talking about the gold connectors? They will look different because the 9600's I listed don't have ADC. That will make the physical build slightly different. The card will fit into any 8x AGP Pro slot.
The card that you pictured is a GeForce FX 5200 Ultra , isn't it? With ADC, correct? The different maker and port configuration will make the cards look quite different. You can use the ATI Radeon 9600 in your machine with confidence.
Your G5 is an 8x AGP compatible machine, and as such, will be able to use any of the 3 cards that I listed. The ATI Radeon 9600 (both versions) have 2 DVI connectors, so you will only need a DVI to VGA connector to connect each VGA monitor.

MS6167 - Problems with NVIDIA GeForce FX5600 graphics card

Hi all,
tried to install a Nvidia GeForce FX5600 old PC of mine that the kids use, mobo is MS-6167. Could not get this to work. States that it cannot get enough resources (in Windows XP, Device Manager). I have tried to force reasign of IRQ from the BIOS on reboot, and even removed the sound card.
Could this be a power issue, though I assume the card would just not work or crash.
Any help apprecaited.
Thanks,
Bunnster

"AMD's 750 Chipset
Power users looking for next-generation features such as AGP 4X /my marking/ and PC133 SDRAM support are currently out of luck on both AMD's Slot A and Intel's Slot 1 infrastructure, as chipsets that support both features are in the latter stages of sampling among motherboard manufacturers. Before a motherboard can tout such features, the motherboards' chipset must support them. All Athlon motherboards currently available ship with AMD's 750 chipset, which only officially supports PC100 SDRAM and the AGP 2X interface."
Source: http://www.firingsquad.com/hardware/6167/default.asp
Ad libris: Meaning, I don't think your Nvidia card can do AGP 2X. Bad news could be you'll have trouble fitting the previous card. Your best bet would be to get a powerful PCI-slot only card.

GF FX5600 256MB DDR AGP DVI VO

The 8X motherboard K7N2G-ILSR and the 8X GeForceFX 5600 are both compatible with eachother, especially since they are both 8X AGP.
Take Care,

P.S. 8X anything will run at 4X too.

MSI GeForce 8600GTS 256MB GDDR3 size question

I am considering the MSI GeForce 8600GTS (NX8600GTS-T2D256EZ-HD) passive cooling PCIe card for my computer.
Since my cabinet is pretty small and I have a oversized CPU fan, I need to know the space required for this card.
It seems like the cooling ribs are on the left side of the card (looking at the DVI connectors), but how much space is required?
Can anyone help me?

I just installed this particular card in a couple of systems over the holidays. The cooling for the card is entirely on the side opposite from where the CPU and Northbridge coolers are located. I don't see you have any problems if that is what you are concerned with. It is a rather large card though. Of course, I have them installed in a COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 case which is ideal for me and my customers.
