[GeForceFX] Issues with FX5700-VTD256 under Win XP

Hello everybody,
Will appreciate your help or advice on the above problems I am experiencing with the MSI FX5700-VTD256 VGA PCI Card
I am using the following driver versions
For VGA - NVIDIA VGA Driver 71.25 for Win XP/2000
For Capture - NVIDIA Capture Driver (For FX series)
Downloaded from http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/driver/dvr/spt_dvr_detail.php?UID=533&kind=2
My configuration is AMD with 512 MB Ram under Win XP SP2
VGA problem
I am getting bad JPEG quality when browsing the web under either Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox, that is, picture under the JPEG format does display but with lots of artefacts, pixel soups around or in the pictures. What is causing this?
Capture problem
My capture card automatically set itself to NTSC colour standard each time I restart my PC, I can set this via Virtual each time. Are there any other settings which I can access to set it to PAL or SECAM permanently? If not, why this auto set up to NTSC?
Thank you.
Antony

I will like to update my posting, the jpeg display problem seems to be from the internet accelerator utilities provided by my ISP which reduce the quality of JPEG for the acceleration of web site display. But I am not sure if this is the main reason, have to test from another ISP to be sure.

Issues With CS4 Installation on Win 8?

I purchased CS4 (Web Premium) on disc several years ago, and it has been working fine on my Win XP computer ever since. The Adobe software has all the current updates, though I am using the CS4 version of Acrobat Pro (9.xx) rather than a more recent (free) version of Reader.,
Unfortunately, my computer's hard drive has fried, and I just purchased a new Windows 8 machine, which will arrive shortly. I am trying to determine:
1. Are there any general issues with CS4 installation on Win 8 that I should know about in advance?
2. Are there specific procedures (de-activation?) that I need to follow BEFORE attempting the installation on the new computer?
3. Other than specific user issues, are there problems with CS4 versus Windows 8 that I would not encounter with Windows 7.
I enhance photos and create web sites for a living, so the CS4 installation is mission-critical. I am hoping I did not make a mistake in ordering a Win 8 machine...
Thanks for any and all insights.

OK, fair enough. Maybe someone who has actually experienced this situation (CS4 --> Win 8 machine) might see this and offer some tips to avoid hassles. But I will try the install as soon as I get the new machine and post any ensuing issues/problems here.
As for de-activation of the previous installation on the XP machine, that is now impossible, as the hard-drive is fried. Unless there is a way to de-activate an installation some other way (without actually opening the programs). That said, I AM able to access files on the fried harddrive, so if there is a specific file that controls de-activation, I could access it on the old machine. However, I may not be able to actually RUN said file on that machine, but can copy it to a stick and move it elsewhere. So, any thoughts on deactivation of an installation on a deceased computer?

Apple 27'' Cinema display issue with nvidia quadro 1800 - Win 7 64bit

Hello,
I'm trying to help out a buddy of mine with his cinema monitor.
He has a Windows 7 x64 machine, with a Nvidia Quadro 1800 - monitor hooked in via DVI port.
Basically when you boot the PC up with the Apple monitor, the monitor turns on and backlit but no display, no options for BIOS or anything like that, just lit up and black screen.
I can boot up the PC with a Dell monitor and it boots up fine - and if I take the DVI out of the Dell monitor and plug it in to the Apple monitor while the machine is up and running, the Apple monitor comes on and works without issue - however, if you were to reboot it, or if it goes to sleep - I lose the Apple monitor, and have to start the process over.
The Windows machine recognizes the Apple monitor, it displays as Cinema monitor - all the video card drivers are up to date - also had the same issue with a previous video card (I swapped the video cards out thinking initally it was a bad video card)
What am I missing?
Thanks!

Mute issues with mpv/cmus under alsa + pulse

Hi everyone!
I am having some weird issues with certain programs (noticed this in mpv and cmus) where they would mute themselves.
For example, cmus is often muted when it starts up and sometimes re-mutes itself when it changes songs (I couldn't find any kind of pattern here).
Similarly, when I have a video on loop in mpv, it is muted from the second time onwards (mpv was muting itself on startup too, but I specified mute=no in the config file).
This also happens when I have a video with chapters in different files - so, for example, there'd be an opening song to a series which is located in it's own file, which plays fine, but when it switches to the series file I have to unmute again.
I have teamspeak3 running alongside all the time, if that matters at all.
I am not sure what logs to post, if any.
Googling didn't really reveal an answer; I disabled the auto-mute setting in alsamixer, but that didn't help.
I'd be grateful for any help!

I unfortunately don't have the answer for your question, but thank you so much for the mute=no suggestion, I was at my wit's end until I tried that! I'm having the same mute issue as you (also using pulse). But mpc plays properly just fine.

Issues with IE 64bit on Win 7

Hello Friends,
We recently upgraded our PC's to Win 7 64bit version and these are our PC configurations
- Win 7 OS 64bit
- Office 2010 Professional Plus 2010 64bit
- IE 8 64bit
These are the issues we are facing:
1: "Datasheet View" button on ribbon interface is disabled
2: "Open with windows explorer" is disabled.
Please let us know how to fix these issues or any workarounds

This is tied to the 64-bit version of Office. IE needs an ActiveX control that the 32-bit version of Office installs.

Issue with Task Scheduler on win 2012 R2

Hi All,
I am running a powershell script on windows server 2012 R2. It runs fine when i run it with powershell.
And when i create task and choose option " Run only when the user is logged in" it works fine.
But the issue is when i select "Run whether is the user is logged in or not" And with highest privilege it doesn't work.
Tried solution:
created a folder (or two on a 64bit-windows):
(32Bit, always)
C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\Dektop
(64Bit)
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\Desktop
as the powershell creates a excel and saves it in the some folder.
not sure what is causing it.
Any help on this will be appreciated.

Hi,
From the
Task Security Context article, we can get following description.
You can specify that a task should run even if the account under which the task is scheduled to run is
not logged on when the task is triggered. To do this, select the radio button labeled Run whether user is logged on or not. If this radio button is selected, tasks will not run interactively. To make a task run interactively, select the Run only when user
is logged on radio button.
Just a confirmation, did your PowerShell script involve any operation of mapped drive? If involved, please
use the full UNC path and monitor the result. Please refer to following similar thread and check if can help you.
Task
Scheduler Problem (run whether user is logged on or not)
Meanwhile, please open this scheduled task’s Properties and navigate to History tab, then check if find some
relevant events.

If any update, please feel free to let us know.
Hope this helps.

ASE157 - Permission issue with BCP out under Solaris

With ASE15.7 SP60 on Solaris10 u11, when data is bulk copied out using Sybase’s bcp utility, the output file generated is having permissions Read/Write for the owner and Read for the group and no permissions for others even if the umask specifies different permissions.
sybase15@server:/sybdata2/backup
!> umask
0022
If I try to create a file, I get the expected file permissions:
sybase15@server:/sybdata2/backup
!> touch test
sybase15@server:/sybdata2/backup
!> ls -l test
-rw-r--r-- 1 sybase15 sybase 0 Mar 21 16:59 test
But bcpout grant different permissions:
sybase15@server:/sybdata2/backup
!> bcp db..table out /sybdata2/backup/table.bcp -Sservername -Uuser -Pxxx -c -t'(¨)' -r'(¯)\n'
Starting copy...
27 rows copied.
Clock Time (ms.): total = 16 Avg = 0 (1687.50 rows per sec.)
sybase15@server:/sybdata2/backup
!> ls -l
-rw-r----- 1 sybase15 sybase 3150 Mar 21 16:42 table.bcp
Any idea?

This was a deliberate change made under CR 683458 in BCP version 15.7 ESD 4, to adopt SAP's more stringent "secure by default" policy.
A new feature has been developed that gives bcp a --filemode option that can be used to specify a less restrictive permission setting. This new feature becomes available in the connectivity 15.7 SP120 and 16.0 GA C1 releases.

Tip: Fix pulseaudio issues with World of Warcaft Wine = 1.3.25

I recently installed Pulseaudio (although I do enjoy dmix), and noticed that WoW is the only wine program having problems with audio (stuttering). The simple fix was to change Wine emulation to 'Windows 7' instead of 'Windows XP'. This is probably because of
(Wine 1.3.25 released) What’s new in this release… Rewrite of the audio support, using the Win7 architecture [mmdevapi].
Just a tip for anyone searching around.

Installation issues with JRE, Auto Update, win 2008 and terminal services

Hello,
We have seven Windows 2008 servers running Terminal Services in one TS farm. I have approximately 600 users accessing these servers. We have a need for the Java JRE. The JRE is to be installed on each of the seven servers since the user has no input into which server they log on to (round robin / load balancing)
There are several issues that have occurred with this installation. I install the JRE on each of the servers when there is no one logged on. I turn off both of the update features while installing as administrator. When the users log on, however they are at some point prompted for an admin password to update Java. The users have no need to update java as all updates will be performed by the system admin. Additionally, when the user runs any app that uses the Java plug-in, they get a folder put on their desktop labeled Sun.
Are there special instructions for installing Java when using Terminal Services and Windows 2008? As you can well see, 600 calls to the help desk asking about this update popup is not productive and accessing 600 users accounts and turning off the auto update on an individual basis is not practical. The user cannot disable this update anyway. They options are grayed out at the user level.
If this is not the proper forum to ask these question, please forward this message to the proper department or let me know who I should/could contact to resolve these issues.
Best regards,
Bob

I mean to only explain 1 enviornment. We have a windows 2008 terminal server. It has JRE 1.6.0_07 (32bit) install on it. The users use this server for Office Apps and to Access our software which is web based and requires a JRE to be able to work.
When the users login the terminal server picks up there local timezone from the machine they are logging in from and apply's it to there terminal server session. The problem is when the jre is launched it is picking up the server timezone, not the timezone from the users session(which is different).
Does this clarify it?Nope.
Either the user is running the jre or the server is. Or maybe both. Seems like all of those are possible from your explanation.
It doesn't matter what the jre is running. What matters is who runs the jre.
Best I can suppose your situation is as follows.
- The server, not a user, is running a jre with one or more applications.
- The users use something, probably a browser, to access that server app (it doesn't even matter that it is java in terms of what the users are doing.)
If and only if that is your situation then you MUST pass information from the browser session to the server (java or anything else for that matter) and you MUST use that information in the server code to display time information.

Major issues with a T60 running Win 8!!!

Hi,
My daughters T60 which I refurb'd and installed Windows 8 has been running fine for 6 months and now has a major issue - contstant Blue Screens, programs crashing continually. I've tried installing severla diagnostics but can't even get them installed.
I ran chkdsk /f and it said there were hardware issues but I haven't managed to trace them.
I checked the seating of memory cards and they all seem secure.
I guess a hdd format is next option,
Sorry, bit lost - any recommendations on where to get a good diagnostic of the issue?

Hello,
Try booting the computer from Lenovo's self-booting Diagnostics CD or Diagnostics USB and using that to test the ThinkPad T60's hardware. You will need to download and create these on another, working computer.

Encoding issues with Instant Client and Win-1252 database

Hi,
I'm connecting to a Win-1252-encoded Oracle XE database from a Ruby on Rails application via ruby-oci8.
NLS_CHARACTERSET WE8MSWIN1252
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET AL16UTF16
When the database and the application reside on the same physical server, the application retrieves the correct characters from the tables. But if the database resides on a different machine, then I use Oracle Instant Client; unfortunately the characters I get back from the database are then incorrect ('e' instead of 'é', 'a' instead of 'à', etc.).
Is there some kind of setting (or another version of the Instant Client) that I can use to fix this encoding problem?
Thanks,
Chris.

Hi,
>>then I use Oracle Instant Client
It's possible that maybe a NLS environment variables configuration problem ... For more information, I advise you to take a look at [url http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/htdocs/nls_lang%20faq.htm] NLS_LANG FAQ

FX5700-VTD256 lost DVI signal

In addition to the Creative and nVidia application problem that I posted here:
Issue with FX5700 and Audigy 2 ZS app's?
I just lost my DVI signal (in windows, during BIOS POST, everything)!
Long story short, did format+delete partition+fresh win XP pro install. After installing my logitech tackball drivers (which worked fine before, for a least a week or so), I rebooted my system...no video signal. I have a analog/DVI flat screen, so I was using the digital connection. I hear windows boot up, so I try shutting down, unplugging the system, pressing the power button...etc. Turn everything back on, monitor is still black, and windows still boots up. I shut it down and go to sleep.
In the morning, I hooked up the analog cable, and booted up the system. The monitor comes on (analog signal, with the DVI cable still attached), and I boot up into windows. No errors, no warnings (still have the EAX and nVidia app's not showing up in systray). I look in hardware manager, no conflicts, no unknown devices (except for the USB ports that are disabled in the back). I look under display/settings/advanced/drivers and see that the monitor is ID'd correctly, in Analog mode...even though the only monitor driver I installed off the samsung CD was the digital driver. Tried installing digital driver again. Hit the "signal switch" button on the monitor to force it to look for a new signal...digital comes up with nothing, and so it goes back to analog.
My best guess would be that the video drivers are AFU, but why would that affect being able to detect a digital signal when I'm in BIOS? I'm lost. There is no BIOS jumper on my video card, so there's no "safe" VGA BIOS to go to, as far as I know, and MSI's Live Update says that my BIOS is the current version. Help?
power:
+5V -5V +12V -12V +3.3V +5V

Apparently the card broke itself, soon to be RMA'd. Figures.

[SOLVED] Touchpad issues with Eee 900A, only with Arch.

Hi guys, posting here because I'm having a hard time tracking down this issue.
I recently aquired an Eee PC 900A, which I have running the 2-09 arch build no prob, but I'm having one massively annoying issue with the touchpad under X.
Whenever I lift my finger and replace it on the touchpad, at anything but super slow speed (and sometimes even then), the cursor will jump, an in or so back..
Now I thought this might be a hardware issue, so I've tried booting into different distros (after trying tons of configs for the synaptics driver in xorg.conf), and this dosen't occur in the Xandros distro that ships with the Eee, or in Eeebuntu..
I'm pretty certain it's not a config issue, Eeebuntu uses hal, I've tried using hal, and dozens of xorg.confs.. I've also tried the zen-eee kernel for the 1000/901's, which is older, and still has the same issue.
So I'm sure this is a software issue, but I'm not sure which.. It even happens if I dont have the xf86-input-synaptics driver installed.. I'm not going to post my xorg.conf here, because it's irrelevant.. I've tried using tons, including the one that ships with xandros..they all change aspects of the synaptics driver, but none affect this issue.
Anyone else having this issue? Fixes, suggestions?
Thanks.

hi guys,
I had a similar bug on my netbook with the Elantech touchpad. I have reported a bug to the maintainer of the Elantech driver and I get a patch that fix it.
description of my bug:
with two fingers above the touchpad, tap alterrnatively with each finger on the touchpad.
- expected behaviour: the cursor does not move.
- actual behaviour: the cursor jumps sometimes to the left or the right.
this only happens when configuring the touchpad with synaptics (by defaults, mine is detected as a mouse)
is your bug the same than mine ?
are you using both the proto=exps option and synaptics ? (I still have the bug in this configuration)
if it is the same bug, I have submited the patched kernel to AUR

Heroes Of Might And Magic V under Wine

My wine has just been updated by pacman -Syu, I looked into winehq database and found this:

Looks like both demo and retail version are working correctly in wine (not cedega). What are your experiences with this game under wine?
I am mostly interested in opinions of people who use open source driver for their video cards (DRI).
