Graphics card covers sata ports on K9N6PGM2-V. How to access Sata ports?

I have http://www.ebuyer.com/product/148025/show_product_overview and http://www.ebuyer.com/product/160711 but when I install the graphics card it covers the sata ports. How do I access them? Is it designed that way and normal to access the sata ports another way?
Thanks.

Didn't you check the CPU support list before getting the CPU? Only the Ph II X4 900, 905, 910 are in the list and that list is updated to the latest BIOS 9.7 2009-09-18. Just because the MB supports AM3 does not mean it will support all of them.
 You have an economy/value MB and they typically don't have the features and support of the more expensive full featured MB's.
CPU support list:

• Support socket AM2 for AMD® Athlon 64/Athlon 64X2 CPU / AM2+ for AMD® Phenom CPU. (95W only)
• Support socket AM3 CPU. (65W only)

  • AGP Graphics card covers pci slot 2 & Problems with sound card

    I have already posted this on another part of the forum.
    Hi i have an M Audio Delta192 Audiophile soundcard which is not working fully
    i have been on the phone to the M Audio technical support about this
    my problem is apparently i need to put the pci Soundcard card into the first slot after my graphics card which would be slot no 2
    my graphics card has a fan on top which covers pci slot no 2 so the next available slot is slot 3 which is where i have my soundcard now
    a lot of the functions available are greyed out in the M Audio Delta control panel this is the software used to control the parameters of the soundcard
    is this right do i have to install my Soundcard in slot no 2 for it to work correctly
    if so is there any way around this
    my graphics card is a ATI Radeon 9800 XT
    if there is no way around this are there any agp cards that i can get that dont have a great big fan on top that covers pci slot 2 that are good quality & can run 2 monitors
    i cant seem to find any

    Hi J D Knight
    I'm Pretty sure it is this is what it has under my system profiler
    ATI Radeon 9800 XT:
    Chipset Model: ATY,R360
    Type: Display
    Bus: AGP
    Slot: SLOT-1
    VRAM (Total): 256 MB
    Vendor: ATI (0x1002)
    Device ID: 0x4e48
    Revision ID: 0x0000
    ROM Revision: 113-A14404-123
    this was the graphics card installed when i bought the powermac
    i understand the reasons for the fan as i am led to believe it is a powerfull card
    but my main use is for audio is it true about the pci slots do i need to have my soundcard in slot 2 as M-Audio have told me if so then i do need to change my graphics card so i can get my soundcard working as it should
    the only thing i need is my dual screens

  • Need help on new graphic card purchase

    Dear Apple users,
    I am looking for a graphic card to replace an older one. I have searched high and low but have no idea which cards are compatible.
    My existing graphic card which came with my G4 MDD is the Nvidia GeForce 4 Ti (256mb). I am looking for something with an equivalent specification or higher, but since my monitor is still the old 15" widescreen (got that when I purchased the G4 Cube back in 2000), only graphic cards with HDMI support are compatible. Which basically means if I need to replace my monitor as well, I'd still have to get a graphic card.
    I was told that newer graphic cards only have DVI ports instead.
    Do I just get any graphic card with DVI port, or must it be something more specific for the Macintosh? What about AGP or PCI Express? I am not familiar at all with these =(
    For example, if I get the GeForce 7600 GT, will it work? Or do I have to be more specific and get the GeForce 7600 GT for Macintosh?
    Thank you for your recommendations and advice beforehand. If there is any information I haven't provided that may be useful, please do not hesitate to post and I will get back as soon as possible.
    Regards.

    Hi,
    First things first. No apple display has ever shipped with HDMI support. Are you sure you are not referring to ADC?
    It looks like this:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:AppleDisplayConnector.jpg
    Does your display look like this?
    http://www.everymac.com/images/monitorpictures/apple_studiodisplay15.jpg
    If so it definitely is ADC.
    Secondly, unfortunately all the latest video cards do not support ADC, you will have to buy an adapter which costs $99 from the Apple online store:
    http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore?productLearnMore=M86 61LL/B
    Your Power Mac only features an AGP slot (not PCI-E found on the latest PCs and Mac Pro). The video card you buy must be a Mac compatible AGP card.
    A good card compatible with your Mac would be the 9800 Pro mac edition:
    http://www.amazon.com/ATI-Radeon-9800-Video-100-435058/dp/B000BJBCGG
    The 9600 Pro is also a good card, not as good as the 9800 Pro of course.
    http://www.amazon.com/ATI-Radeon-9600-PRO-Mac/dp/B000JFKZPQ
    Both cards would be a significant upgrade over your current one.
    Good Luck!

  • Direct Draw Graphic cards!

    Hi,
    No, nothing you can do. The system will work this out for you and it will allocate AVAILABLE memory for the GPU if required.

  • Installing a graphics card

    i am installing a graphics card in an HP7800. a simple question, how do you remove the metal dust cover? it used to be simple just remove the screw but there are no scews i can see, just metal tabs. do i just bash it out? there must be a better way than that.

    Hello caribx-----,
    I am providing you with the HP Support document: Upgrading and Servicing the PC Guide. If you reference the section titled "Installing Add-In Cards" you will see the steps to removing the dust cover as you are inquiring about. Step 7 Pull the add-in card bracket up and out. and Step 8 If  you’re adding a new card to a previously unused slot, remove the expansion slot cover.
    There are diagrams as well to show you what you should be looking for.
    I hope this answers the question you are asking. Thank you for posting this on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
    Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

  • Directx 9 Support - Intel 945 Express Graphics Card

    This Z61T Model 9442-E6U has a lot of power and I use is mostly for business. I purchased software recently that requires DirectX9 and I continue to get a program error that my graphics card does not support DirectX 9. How can this be? Is there a work around? I am shocked that this computer, with all its power, does not support the DirectX 9. I have installed the latest DirectX9.0c software and the latest graphics drivers. Help!!!

    That card will run the game I have it and its amazing but you will need at least 2 gigs of ram to run it.

  • I believe my graphic card has just gone out

    I have a 2008 Mac Pro Tower and (I believe) the graphic card has just gone out. I can still access the tower remotely (via home sharing for Apple TV, etc) but the direct monitor is showing a crazy squiggle pattern (usually about five minutes after the machine initially boots). I've checked, and it's not an issue with the monitor itself.
    If this alone was the issue, I'd feel 99.9% sure I could replace the video card.
    But in addition to the video issue (during those five minutes before the video goes out) the Mac Pro is having random 10 second mini freezes where the mouse or an application launch suddenly stops.
    I'm hoping this mini freezing problem is ALSO related to the graphics card issue. I'd hate to spend the money on the card only to learn that it doesn't still  resolve half the problem.
    Can anyone say whether video card issues could also cause the processor to have clunk issues?

    This is a FIVE (5) year old thread. Might have thought about just starting and stating in a new thread.
    Especially as the "green" symbol marks t he thread as solved and should be closed to new comments.
    Cards and options available in 2009-2011 have changed a lot in the meantime as has OS X.

  • Satellite C50-A-1DV - Graphics card replacement

    Hypothetically, If I wanted to replace the graphics card in my Satellite C50-A-1DV, how would I go about it?
    And If i had to send my laptop in, how much would it cost?

    At first I must say that GPU replacement or upgrade is officially not supported and any action in this direction is on your own risk.
    Please note that notebook disassembling will cancel valid warranty.
    But we are discussing hypotheticallyabout all this.
    What you must do is to obtain new GPU, disassemble your notebook, exchange it and put your notebook together.
    On some notebook models GPU is fixed on the mainboard and cannot be exchanged. I dont know how it is on your machine.
    > And If i had to send my laptop in, how much would it cost?
    If GPU is defective and warranty still valid best option for you is o contact nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. In case that you want to do upgrade, Toshiba service will not help you with this.
    Can you please tell us what is the problem with your machine and original graphic card?

  • Display Ports : Adding NVidia GT-120 Graphics Card to Mac Pro

    Hi
    Just installed the Base NV GT-120 graphics card in order to use the new Mac Cinema Display 24".
    Also still running the original ATI HD 2600 card.
    Installation was easy.....
    The ATI card runs a 20" Cinema Display and the 24" is on the new NV card.
    GREAT picture on the 24" Display!
    Just to let you know....The MDP cannot be the primary port for the display. That is all the dock/menus are all on the "smaller" or display on the DVI port.
    UNLESS you re-write the code in terminal....which Apple support advised me not to....
    Any thoughts/ advice?
    Lenny

    1. open your "System Preferences" and click on "Displays".
    2. select the tab "Arrange", you will see two blue rectangles which represent your two displays. you can drag those rectanglea to change the arrangement of your screens.
    3. in one rectangle you see a small white rectangle on top. this is representing your menu bar. just drag the menubar to your desired primary screen. close the preferences and that's it.

  • Black screen when monitor connected to one graphics card port only

    A couple of days ago did a back up using SuperDuper. The program is set to send the mac to sleep and when I tried to wake it got a black screen though the system seemed to have woken judging by the sounds. I've had issues after back up with the system freezing so tried rebooting as the first option, unplugging and reconnecting everything but still a black screen. Tried a second monitor and this worked but on reboot it too turned black. I then tried the second graphics card port and this time the screen worked and rebooted fine too. Since then I've tried the original connector/port and sometimes it works sometimes not and mostly even when it does work when I connect at first a reboot results in a black screen. The obvious logic is that this port has gone (ATI Radeon HD 2600) Apple say I have to return the whole kit to base for them to evaluate. I can't afford to be without the Mac for a week or however long it will take so I will just buy a new video card and install myself but just wanted any thoughts on the issue first - could it be anything other than the graphics card? Other hardware/software issues? Can't think why but don't want to shell out if that's not the problem.
    Also, will the NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 work with my 2008 Mac Pro?
    Many thanks

    The 2600 does seem pretty rubbish - never had a Graphics card go on me before - and especially not in less than a year. Of course Apple said I had to return the whole machine to base rather than ship out a new card. It was less disruptive to shell out for a new card than lose the machine for a week or two under warranty. The GT 120 seems fine to me but if you need extra graphics support for 3D, gaming etc then I guess the 4870 is the more powerful option.
    Just to confirm it is the graphics card have you tried reseating it in another slot?. Also I found that for a while at least swapping to the second monitor port worked until that bit the dust after a week.

  • Dell Optiplex 780 standard size tower PC dual monitor display port graphic cards

    Yes, only my boss informed me that they have to be display ports, he didn't tell me why.
    I'm unable to buy from ebay or craiglist either & my local vendor doesn't have any in stock.

    Quite a mouthful I know! but I need these specific graphic cards, ideally with next day delivery:

    Any recommendations? I can find 2 on amazon (UK) I need 3!

  • Force graphics card to display on second DVI port?

    Background: My computer has been crashing intermittently. I narrowed it down to a hardware problem by seeing multiple OSes crash, so I bought some canned air and dusted by CPU/heatsink and graphics card, an NVidia 9800. Now, for some reason, nothing is outputted from my primary DVI port, but Xorg isn't configured to output to the second port, so it tries the first and of course nothing is displayed. How do you configure xorg.conf to use another display port?
    I've tried running nvidia-settings from a VNC session, but it complains that the current display isn't the one that uses the graphics card, and I can't get it to use display 0 with "nvidia-settings -c 0", so I'd prefer an xorg.conf line to add rather than just be told "try nvidia-settings". Thanks!

    Oh well, now nothing is displayed from EITHER port... I guess I need to go get a new graphics card.

  • Msi K9N6PGM2-v2 and Graphics Card

    about 4 years ago i built the msi k9n6pgm2-v2 system.
    has been great - although i did not realize it at the time,
    i also bought msi R4350 graphics card.
    i have not installed the graphics card.
    i want to upgrade to windows 8.1 64 bit version.
    i did read on another post that the main board is
    compatible.
    i am currently using xp 3.
    can the video card be used with windows 8.1??

    NVIDIA 960 card  + GAMING 5 motherboard = best bundle for budget gaming!
    it would be nice to see more testing of hardware-demanding games!
