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

  • Geforce 7600GS 256mb w Maxent MX-26X3 TV

    Certain programs appear clearer on the Maxent TV using the vga-adapter connection (recommended by Maxent support) while others appear clearer using the DVI connection.  The TV permits toggling between RGB & DVI.  If both cables are connected to the TV, can a user toggle between connections (using the switch on the TV) without having problems with the video card recognizing the change?  (OS is W2K w latest SP.)

    Can you gives more details on your component including PSU and Bios revision so others can help you!! gD LUCK.

  • XFX GeForce 7600GS 512mb AGP with MSI K7N2 Delta Problem

    Hi, I have been searching in everyplace and still I havent find a solution.
    I have the XFX GeForce 7600GS 512mb AGP card.
    I use the MSI K7N2 Delta.
    My Processor its the AMD 2600+ XP
    my PSU its a 420watt
    my RAM its 2gb DDR 400
    I made everything in the bios, didnt work.
    I updated the lastest drivers and bios, didnt work.
    I went to a friend house, he use a P4 motherboard with 500watts. Worked, PERFECTLY.
    I changed the card once (the first one didnt worked at all) but this one worked...
    now the question is:
    HOW I MAKE IT WORK IN MY PC  ?????????
    Can anyone help me?  I dont wanna sell it to a friend for only 60$ (that the only costumer I have found for the card in Panama)

    Heh I had problems with trying to see again was what happening in my PC but yesterday....
    Ok I went to my friend house, we used the card with his 350 watts 15A in the 12V+ and it worked.
    Then we tried to install the PSU but I dont know why its 4pin was incompatible with mine....
    Well heres the important part: I went to a local Computer Store where they repair too and with another more powerfull PSU in my PC  and the card didnt worked for seconds, but the guy played a little with my Ram and he noticed that its posible to that be the problem. Remember that my ram its a Kingston 400DDR 2X1 Gb running in the purple and the green slots of the mobo. when we changed them to both purples slots of the mobo the PC dosent work and make a the beep sound. I have the braket in my computer and it showed a red dot here:  GR
                                                                                                                                                                                                               GG
    Gonna search the manual to know what that means.

  • MSI GeForce 7600GS 512MB DDR2, AGP8X - maximum resolution ?

    MSI GeForce 7600GS 512MB DDR2, AGP8X
    Hey,  Does anybody know the maximum resolution of this graphics card? can it power a 30" Apple cinema display or the Dell 3007  ( 2560 * 1600 )

    Hi, I installed the MSI 7600GS - Its working great so far. Having problems with Display Properties / VGA Clock - the settings reset to default after i restart windows? how do i get them to stick.   Thanks
    nice
    about remaining things:
    you have change VGA Clock freq. via MSI DOT or via Nvidia panel(e.g. coolbits)? there should be a checkmark "apply this settings at start up"
    what drivers version you currently use?
    use Driver Cleaner to remove currently drivers,
    reboot.
    then download and install latest one from Nvidia: http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp

  • MSI FX5500-TD256 fix possible?

    Hello, I have a big prob with my agp card (MSI FX5500-TD256)...I use to have a PNY GeForce MX440 installed...and that worked great..but when I upgraded to the 5500...my Pc reboots on high graphic games (IE: Dungeon Seige2...Diablo2..even..Ultima Online).  I have Win XP Pro. (Not 64bit)...I do not have any service pack installed.  I have DirectX 9.0c....my PSU is 450Watts.  I have downloaded the newest MSI drivers (that didnt correct the prob).  I rolled back driver to the one that came with the 5500 card (7.7.7.2version)...I am totally stumped.  Plz..if anyone knows how to correct this graphic nightmare....I would really appreciate any help.  Thnxs much,
    Rubix.

    Okies...I went to the ECS website and look for updates on my mobo.  They have issued a bios update..which is suppose to fix a known issue with my particular board and NVidia chipsets.  The update is suppose to be burnt to a floppy and read in dos upon restart.  My Pc hangs on posting saying "invalid system disk" until the floppy is removed.

  • KT880 and Sparkle geforce 7600GS

    Hi guys,
    I recently bought a sparkle geforce 7600GS 512MB AGP version to upgrade my Ti4400 but it doenst work like it should.
    When i tried to play a game the pc gave a blue screen with "gv4 is in a infinite loop and ....." before it rebooted....
    That was with the 91.XX drivers who came with the card, so i upgraded them to 93.71 and the blue screen was gone.
    However when i try to play a game it still doesnt work, when i enter a game the screen freezes but the sound goes on. when i try to quit the game the screen keeps frozen... What could cause this? i have the latest drivers of everything installed.
    maybe this is related, the reason why i upgraded was that my Ti4400 wast working on the right drivers, then the screen was messed up so we had to use old drivers (30.XX) those where the only ones that worked.
    maybe there is something wrong with my motherboard?
    i have a
    windows XP SP2
    MSI KT880
    amd xp 2200+
    768 MB DDRRAM
    and enough cooling.
    can you please help me? thx

    Here is what via says about the cause.
    http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=5&ArticleID=9
    As you have experienced, different video driver versions can cause different types of it.
    Are you using the latest version of directX?  Try older versions of the Nvidia video drivers than the ones that you are using now.  You can get the different version to try from this link.

  • MSI FX5600-TD256 (256mb card)

    Hi,
    My pc spec is like following,
    Pentium 1.8A ghz
    256DDr ram,
    Asus motherboard P4B533,
    And Geforce 4 mx 440 64 mb card, etc.
    I wish to upgrade my graphic card, so i want to buy MSI FX5600-TD256 model.
    It is my computer(motherboard)support this graphic card?
    AlSo it is any different between MSI geforceFx5600 128mb and MSI geforceFx5600 256MB?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I wouldn't even buy the FX5600, because as you can read nside this formum, there are lots of big problems with this card and the drivers.
    I installed the card first in an win XP system, but could not get any newer game to run (e.g. age of mythology, morrowind, rise of nations, freelancer....)
    Afterwards after my cpu died I instaled the card in an windows 2000 server system, and I still have exactly the same problem. 1 minute after starting the game the system crashes and starts write a memory dump.
    Tried miniport driver update, tried driver update, tried driver cleaner, nothing helped so far.
    My advice you should buy a graphic card that is known to have a working properly driver, e.g. as OpT1kN3rv told the Ti4800
    regards

  • MSI FX5600 TD256 Problems

    Hi all. This is my first time on these boards and must say the info i have got from it is outstanding. Keep it up.
    I need some help.... I use an MSI KT4 Ultra via KT400 chipset based M/B with an AMD XP2600+. 1024MB 2700 ram. MSI FX5600 TD256mb G/C. 120gb H/D. Thermaltake power supply 480w. Water cooled.
    My problem is that the PC starts up and runs ok for a while but all of a sudden the monitor goes blank. The CPU fan still runs but all else fails. ie, case fans, CD drives, etc.
    The only way i can get it to work again is by removing the G/C and reinserting again. It makes no difference if i just turn off all power to the PC. This again works fine for a while and then it happens again?
    Can anyone tell me if this is a common problem or what it could be. I have seen others mention the power supplies but mine is not the cheap type and surely 480w is ample?
    I am sorry if something here is not listed. Let me know if any other info is required and i will post.
    I forgot to say. I have put in an old G2 G/c from my old system for now and have not had a problem so i can assume it is something to do with the G/C?
    I do not know if i need new drivers or BIOS? I can never get into the MSI live update for this. Does anyone know how to get them and especially for the BIOS, how do you instal them (in detail, I do not want to dammage anything).
    Thanks in advance
    MSI KT4 Ultra-FISR (MS6590). MSI FX5600 TD256 256mb. AMD XP2600+. 1024mb 2700 ram, (2x 512). 120gb maxor h/d. Thermaltake Xaser11 case + 480w p/s. Water cooled. Win XP pro

    Hi there. Since you are talking about flashing BIOS's, may I ask a question? (OK, another one.  )
    I was looking through some of my old downloads on my hard drive and in my MSI folder, I came across an upgraded BIOS for my MSI Ti4200-VTD64 (MS-8870). The file is GF4Ti4200_4.25.00.37_250_500.rom, but I did not have an installer for it. I searched the MSI web site, but I didn't even see this file. I wouldn't have put it in that folder unless it came from MSI, so my question is, does anyone know how to install it, or where I can get an installer for it?
    Thanks
    (...and yes I'm familiar with the possible perils of flashing  )

  • MSI K7N2-IL 2M/B and MSI MS-StarForce GeForce FX 5900 Ultra

    Hi
    I wonder if you could help me.
    I am curious, the below is the spec of my machine.
    AMD Athlon XP 3000 + 333 FSB CPU
    MSI K7N2-IL 2M/B
    256 GEFORCE FX 5900 ULTRA GRAPHICS
    though the graphics card is reported as MSI MS-StarForce GeForce FX 5900 Ultra [Nividia GeForce 5900 Ultra] in Windows control panel.
    I am needing to learn more about exactly what is what in this PC.  
    I have installed MSI Live monitor and have upgraded to NVIDIA nForce System Drivers though my graphic driver is still reported as 4.4.0.3 or 43.51 [another question why are there two versions given to graphic drivers?]
    As Live monitor doesn't report any further updates possible when there are newer Nvidia drivers from the Nvidia website - can I install these ?
    Also I am looking for a utility to monitor, change fan speed and temperature, is the Nvidia  system utility ok to use?  It says that it's only compatible with
    nForce3 Pro
    nForce3
    nForce2
    I'm not sure if I only have Nforce ?
    I would really appreciate any help you may give - I know that the above probably sounds as if I'm as thick as 2 short planks.
    Thanks in advance

    you can use speedfan for temp

  • Driver for MSI NX7600GS-TD256X AGP

    Hi!
    Sorry for the mistakes, I'm french.
    I have a MSI NX7600GS-TD256X AGP as graphic card but any drivers is ok with this card. In the list of products nvidia and msi, it doesn't exist. So i don't know what i can do because i can't play at any game without this driver.
    Thaks for your tip,
    mmoussouni.

    Just drop the X and you have your card here:
    http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=130&prod_no=839
    http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=searchresult&keywords=7600GS
    There simply is not "X" card.  Google it.  No hits at all (besides this thread and some thread you opened in a french forum.  You are the only person on the planet who calls this card NX7600GS-TD256X
    There is a "Z"-Card:  NX7600GS-TD256Z: http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=130&prod_no=1142 ... but no "X" card.
    It doesn't really matter anyway because there is no "specific" driver anyway, just the usual GeForce Driver Packet which covers a wide range of different video cards, including whatever card you have.

    In the list of products nvidia
    When you check the NVIDIA Driver Download Site there definately is a 7600GS in the list.

  • Graphic glitches with NX7600GS - TD256

    Hello to everyone
    I recently bought a NX7600GS TD256 (AGP) and I installed it according to the instructions. The problem I am having is that graphical glitches appear on my screen all the time:
    These glitches also appear in the pre-windowsscreens. Any ideas if this might be a hardware- or a software-problem and how I might fix this?

    Quote from: Nameisis on 20-June-07, 14:56:34
    ur psu is too weak it only has 250W i guess u need at least 350W or more with decent 12A rail
    Yeppa, just looked at it. Card requires 350 W and my PSU gives a max of 250 W. Thanks for the help!

  • Another topic for MSI NX 7600GS 256MB AGP driver problems

    Seems that some of users are having troubles of installing new drivers for NX7600 display adapter. Only drivers supplied with install cd will work with this card. Any other drivers, including MSI’s wont recognise the card.
    My system is following:
    OS: Windows XP Professional 5.01.2600 Service Pack 2
    Mainboard: Abit Kv8 (VIAK8T800P-8237)
    BIOS: Phoenix Technologies Ltd.

    I´ve being requested to force install Nvidia drivers, but  since i have owned several NVidia (TNT2, Geforce 2 Gts, Ti 4800, Fx5900, 6600gti) display adapters, and NEVER i havent had to force install ANY drivers, i am wondering why i have to force install drivers for this display adapter? Why is it so with the Msi? I hope that this product isn´t that bad. 
    By the way can i have instructions for force installing drivers, if i have to do it. I hope that Msi will give drivers that will work with this card.
    Yours,

      Yes, beta drivers worked for me also! It seems that Nvidia has some sort of bug in it´s latest official forceware release, it does not recognise 7600gs agp display adapter. But i think and hope it will be fixed in future release, before that i have to use beta or the older drivers supplied with msi card. Thanks Yoppy  for the tip! By the way you reported that you have video problems with beta drivers, i dont have such problems, div-x and every video file has worked fine so far! So you have to wait for the next release of new drivers.

  • Major headaches with MSI FX5500 TD256 card...

            
    Hello all,
    I recently purchased an MSI FX5500 TD256..now my system keeps rebooting and often suffers from screen freeze.  I can access the internet and stay connected all day with no problems....but as soon as I try to play an online game such as City Of Heroes...reboot.
    I have already installed the newest bios/mobo drivers and any other updates recommended by the program:  Everest. 
    I have tried numerous drivers from both MSI site and Nvidia site.  (Cleaning after each re-install of these with Driver Cleaner Pro as to avoid any possible conflicts.)
    I even re-installed OS (WinXP/Home) twice.  (after formatting HD of course).
    I have used DocMem to check the ram...ram checked out ok.
    I am at my wits end....if anyone has any ideas...solutions..plz help....not much hair left  (grabs handfull and begins to pull)...
    I have a rar file (mini dump file of the error and Everest report on my system)...is it possible to post these?
    The system is roughly 2---2 1/2 yrs old.  (Self built and havent had any serious probs with it until this card.)  oddly enough...the card doesnt appear faulty...
    Also...Everest reports CPU temp is 120F.   But there are 6 fans installed and mobo/CPU  cooler are (mostly) clean.
    Any help would be appreciated. 
    Thnxs.
    Azreil.
