GF4 Ti4200-VTD8X(8894) and Live update 2.0

Hello all
Recendly i bought this graphic card (i mention on the subject). It's much faster than the Asus GF2 Ti i had before and all are working properly except of the updating program called Live update 2.0. I installed it and when i got connected to the server it announced me that the version running on the server is newer than mine and it gave me the option to update it as i did. When i reconnected to the server and asked for updates about my card's bios or driver it gives me the message that my graphic card isn't from MSI. The utility option works fine but as you can understand isn't the important one. As i was ecpecting the same results i got from the live monitor too.
So i would like to ask the moderators of this forum or anyone who could know:
1) Is my graphic card [MSI GF4Ti 4200 VTD8X (8894) 128 MB] combatible with the Live update utility 2.0 or not? The 3D turbo experience utility works fine on my pc.
2)If i update the VGA bios and driver of my graphic card manualy (without the live update utility) from the MSI web site will i still have the tabs "MSI information" and "MSI clock" on my display properties?
Thanks in advance

I recently built a system (specs below) and installed this card (MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTD8X MS8894, 128MB DDR), and when I try to use Live Update 2 (version 3.33.000, from the CD that came with the card), I get the same message:
"Warning!!! Your Display Card does not support MSI Live Update 2 function. Note: MSI Live Update 2 supports the Display Cards of MSI only."
I'm using the drivers/BIOS that came on the CD: Driver version 6.13.10.4107, BIOS version 4.28.20.05.11. I see on the nVidia site that they have the 4109 drivers out now, should I try those? ?(
I have also made sure to do the suggested modifications to IE (and I don't have PC-cillin installed):
"Note: In order to operate this application properly, please note the following suggests.
-Set the IE security setting 'Download signed ActiveX controls' to [Enable] or [Prompt]. (System default is [Prompt]).
-Disable 'WebTrap' of PC-cillin(R) or any web based anti-virus application when executing MSITM Live Update 2TM.
-Update Microsoft® Windows® Installer"
I downloaded a newer version of LIveUpdate (3.35.000), and installed it (after completely uninstalling the old version), and got the same results. Nothing on my system is currently overclocked.

MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTD8X tech question

Hi everyone, I hope u can help me with this:
I'm planning on buying a MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTD8X (Video In) from the United States which uses the NTSC system for Video, however where I live we use the PAL system for Video. So my question is will I be able to use the Video In feature of the card ?( ?? Do these cards work using both video systems or are there different video versions of the card?
Thanks in advance!

bondock,
It is my understanding that they will work with both systems. They do not make them market specific.
Take Care,
Richard

Please help, simple question about Smart Playlists and Live Updating

PLEASE for some reason I've never gotten an answer on this.
I have a Smart Playlist called "Recently Played" with Live Updating. No matter how I set the parameters, the most recently played *song will ALWAYS appear on the bottom of the list when using my iPhone on the go.* I bolded that because I want you to be aware I'm not talking about on iTunes - I'm aware you can change how the list is viewed on iTunes.
When using your iPod/iPhone on the fly and Live Updating is enabled, is there any way to make the most recently played song appear at the very top???
Thanks so much

Haven't seen that problem before but try the following: in iTunes, right-click the playlist name and enable the option "Copy to Play Order." Then sync.
The normal use of "Copy to Play Order" when you have the playlist displayed in iTunes in some sort order, but you want it to display in the iPod in shuffled order (as it will actually play). Different problem than you are observing, but the same thing "might" help.... Let us know.

Ti4200 and Live Update 2

When I use Live update for my Ti4200 VTP (MS-8886), it tells me that live update is only for MSI products and that my card is not supported.
Has anyone had this same problem or know why this is happening?
J. :P

I uninstalled the old one and downloaded the new one and installed it.
I think when I first had this problem, which was a while ago, my card had not been updated yet.
I had'nt downloaded a newer version since then.
It may be that your card has not been updated to the list yet.
Maybe, Maybe not.
Good luck,
J. :P

New VIA Drivers and Live-Update

I noticed the latest VIA drivers are not yet available for download using MSI's Live Update prgram. Is it ok to download them seperately from the official VIA site? Or should I just wait for the Live Updater to get them?
Just Wondering...

:D
I only used Live Update for a limited time ... mostly because there was too much time between launching an new driver and the driver becoming available through Live Update. The VIA drivers are available for more than a week, I think.

Ms-8900 and live update not working

In the beginning the live update auto-search would work, but now it it stops running when it gets to "searching for msi utilities" and does nothing. I have updated to the 3.34 version, no pop-up blockers, etc...
any ideas why it's doing this now?

You might want to try and uninstal it then reinstal it, and if that does not do it, then more than likely their service is temporarly down, Has happened to me a time or two and more often than not it is the site to blame.

M510C Megabook Bios and Live Update

Where can I obtain Latest Bios and Drivers for M510C Laptop
Flashed Bios with latest from live update but it went backwards to older version Bios
Was 2.30 Now 1.40(beta) (thought it was typo has happened with other MSI Live update files before) {Thats my excuse}
Now Live Updates shows bios optimised
Also all the driver files live update 3 (Ver3.61) finds are old and web links for drivers are old and no bios image to download
Had to use ATI drivers for newer Megabook 610
Also had to download Intel inf and wireless g update version from intels site
PC Alert4 Preloaded version show CPU Temp and System Temp
Now Manualy updated PC Alert4 it only shows CPU Temp
Overall Very Happy with Megabook Quality and performance (just fine tuning of software/drivers needed)
Would like live update to show updated drivers and Bios images
Also would be nice to have graphical picture report of battery conditon like it shows of promotional Sheet
Thanks MSI
One last thing a forum just for notebooks and maybe socket 775 boards

MSI have sent me an Email (I did send them one)
Which fixed the BIOS Issue and is now available. Also are working on other live update drivers file
THANK YOU MSI
for your
GREAT SERVICE/SUPPORT

GF4 ti4200 and capturing DV

I just got my GF4 Ti4200 8x yesterday and have had great success with everything except capturing digital video via my 1394 firewire card. Previous the GF4, I had a GF2 ti that was able to capture video perfectly, but ever since I installed the GF4 I cannot capture video via the firewire controller, only the video in port on the card. However I've noticed something interesting that makes me want to think it has something to do with the card: I installed the Intervideo WinProducer that came with my card and it can capture digital video via the 1394 card without crashing like Premiere and the software that came with my camcorder; however when I try to play back the video it gives me that ugly blocky video with the logo and the scrolling subtitles that say my trial has expired ?( how can it be expired if I just bought it and entered the key on the cd? Anyways, thanks for any help.

You have 2 capture sources, you need the software to be able to allow you to select the one you want.
You should try virtualdub, supposed to be good and it's free.

DiskSuite and Live Upgrade 2.0

I have two Solaris 7 boxes running DiskSuite to mirror the O/S disk onto another drive.
I need to upgrade to Solaris 8. In the past I have used Live Upgrade to do so, when I have enough free disk space to partition an existing disk or to use a unused disk for the Solaris 8 system files.
In this case, I do not have sufficient free space on the boot disk. So, what is the best approach? It seems that I would have to:
1. unmirror the file system
2. install Solaris 8 onto the old mirror drive using LU 2.0
3. make the old mirror drive the boot drive
4. re-establish mirroring, being sure that it goes the right way from the Solaris 8 disk to the old boot disk

Need to Create a Live Update Smart Playlist That Shuts Off After a While

Hi All--
I'm trying to create a smart playlist with the following properties:
1) Every time I play it, it selects a different random set of songs.
2) The playlist plays for a fixed duration, then shuts off. (I like to go to sleep to music, but it wakes me up in the middle of the night if it plays for too long.)
The best I've been able to come up with is to set "not played in the last xx days", "Limit to yy minutes selected by random", and "live updating". However, there's a problem with this: as soon as one song has played, it's purged from the list, which causes live updating to replace it with a new song. As a result, this creates a list that plays forever, since new songs are continuously added to replace the ones that have been played.
I tried turning off live updating, but then I'm stuck with the same songs over and over. I also know about the trick of just using "select random" and deleting the contents of the list, so that live update will repopulate it, but that won't work on an iPod without doing it in iTunes and then re-syncing.
Any ideas?

OK, I think I finally found a way to do this, sorta. This will work on any iPod or iPhone that supports live update and allows the creation of ad-hoc playlists, either named or on-the-go:
1) Create the list as described above.
2) Sync to iPod or iPhone
3a) On a non-touch iPod, highlight the playlist and hold down the select button until you get the menu with "add to on-the-go" in it, and select that.
3b) On an iPod touch or iPhone, create a new playlist, then select the dynamic list and "add all songs" to it.
The playlist you created isn't dynamic, so you'll just play through it once and stop. Deleting the contents from the temporary list and doing step 3a/b over will get you a new set of songs. The dynamic list will purge the songs and update with new ones as you play them from the static list.
It's not perfect, but it's reasonably fast to get a time-bounded selection of music that refreshes each time you want to play the list.

No more live updating?

iTunes 11 is only updating my number of plays and 'last played' on random songs. Has anyone else had a problem with iTunes not recording and live updating the data from music being played? I have a smart playlist of songs that I haven't listened to this year, I want to play through them, but it's not longer recording that they have been played. Can some one help or is this just a flaw in the 'new and improved' iTunes?

After further research - I did find someone else post that if you turn off 'Cross-fade' option it starts to live update again! Thanks to those other contributers!

Reason for msi tabs & live update not working

Ok i had the same problems with my msi video card the msi tabs not working and live update giving me an error. I used to run a asus p4b533 board with a sis chipset> what i found out is that the live update and the tabs work under any m/b that have the intel chipset. I now have a asus board with a intel chupset it's working fine. I've tried this on other boards and same results. It seems that everyone who's had the problem was not using an intel chipset board. This is my theory...

Just reinstall LU, and you should be fine.

Has Live Update EVER worked? Trying to download "AMD Chipset Drivers" 970A-G46

I just installed W8 clean, added 8.1, all the updates, and installed Live Update fresh to see if i actually works this time around.
I see that apparently it still is a piece of crap software.
Never have I found this program to take less than several hours / entire day to download something that I allegedly need. It will tell me my BIOS is up to date yet when I go to the MB page and compare the version from BIOS and Live Update, there IS a newer version there (heck it is up to 2.6 and I had a v 1.0B using Windows 7). Even after flashing with USB to 2.6, LU5 is still showing my BIOS version as 1.B0.
I just wound up manually downloading the internet, realtek audio, and usb drivers then installing them myself.
The only file that is missing from the MB page is what Live Update is telling me as "Not Installed": MB Driver /AMD Chipset Drivers/(current version) Not Installed/(online version) 13.101.0.0
I have been waiting at least 30 minutes downloading this file through LU5 which is only at 27%.
Is this even needed? Is the MB page THE DEFINITIVE page for downloads and should I just uninstall LU?

Quote from: ITPalg on 27-November-13, 09:37:01
Well, it is an AMD based board, not Intel. Shouldn't the board manufacturer supply the drivers for their own board?
p.s....after letting the one file download for over an hour, there is a corrupt file in it /rolls eyes...I also can't find drivers for an ATI based MB on the AMD website. The only selections for drivers are for graphics cards.
So you didn't get a disk with your motherboard?
Yes, MSI will provide drivers for your motherboard off of their website, or with the disk that came with your motherboard. You had mentioned the newest drivers...the newest drivers will always come from the chip manufacture...ie AMD, Intel, Nvidia, etc.
AMD no longer has a specified chipset driver to the best of my knowledge. They have Catalyst...it pretty much takes care of everything.
