KT880 Screen Draw problem

Someone else posted a similar thread, but his issue got resolved. Here's the deal.
I have the system described in my signature. The PSU is not mentioned, but it is an Antec 400W PSU that I bought specifically because it met the suggested requirements set forth in the Trouble Shooting guide (I'd list the amps, but I really don't want to open my computer up right now). Anyways, the screen draw performance is horrible, particularly in Windows Media Player 10 and at http://www.pcpitstop.com during the video test. The odd thing is that when I play games (Rainbox Six 3 Raven Shield for example) I see no problem in video performance. I just reinstalled windows, updated it, and then installed the latest 4in1s and nVidia driver (66.93) and tried it: same problem occurs. I have tried my Mushkin memory as well as some cheap SimpleTech stuff I have, and both give problems. Any suggestions? Do you think this may be a problematic board? Does any other KT880 Delta user have this problem?

There is the URL to the beta bios. It is named as index.zip, but I downloaded it and it is fine. In case the .exe file doesn't work, just download the 1.8 bios file from the kt880 webpage and use it. That was the one I used.
I don't think this is a quality of memory issue. I set one up for my friend with some corsair memory in it and it did the same thing. And the beta bios here (1.9b6) fixed it and mine. I am not sure what exactly it fixes, but it does fix it. My computer was the same. good on games, bad on desktop. It's got me, but all I know is my system is a beast now.
Hope this helps... but remember, don't cry if you blow stuff up using beta anything.
I'm crying now... I recently got a KT880 with 512MB x2 Corsair PC3200 value RAM. Right now not overclocked, DDR set to SPD mode. I was using bios 1.8 and I couldn't install WinXP SP1 or SP2 with "Vlink8X" enabled in the bios. Once disable I can install everything. Even then sometimes my PC will restart itself for no apparent reason, even with onboard Gigabit and AC97 disabled. I tried bios 1.96 and now my PC reboots itself again and again during POST. How I know, the keyboard lights blink every 5 seconds or so. Anyone else experiencing this?

2D Screen Draw Issues - KT880 Delta

Ok, here I am again after resolving all the other issues.
It would appear that I am having some slight 2D screen draw issues. As with everyone else that has posted in these forums along the same lines with the KT880 Delta everything is fine with 3D. For some reason it is only with 3D.
So far I have done the following:
Moved my Soundblaster Live Card to the 5th PCI Slot to avoid any conflict.
Installed, Uninstalled and reinstalled both sound and nVidia drivers
Disabled VLink 8x in the bios
Set AGP to 4x in the bios (I only have a 4x AGP card currently)
Set the cache to 128mb
First installed the correct 4-in-1 drivers, then superceded thoses with the Hyperion drivers instead.
Despite all this I am still getting draw issues when minimising and maximizing windows, scrolling through web sites, and dragging open windows around the desktop. However, I have tried 2d drawing tests on windows media player 10, as well as pitstop (that actually told me I had a good setup!!)
So, not too sure what to do...any more help would be great.
Specs are:
MSI KT880 Board
Sempron 2800+ 2.0ghz CPU
1.5Ghz DDR333 memory
Gainward MX440 128Mb 4x AGP card
Creative Soundblaster Live! 1024 card
350w PSU (Not sure what type it is!!!)
I hope thats enough information

This appears to be a recurring problem with the KT880 across several different graphic cards (mostly NVIDIA). I've never seen so many complaints specific to 2D graphics collectively as have been reported here for just one particular mainboard. There is talk of a BETA BIOS that solved at least one case, but not others:
KT880 Slow 2D Performance with Leadtek 6600GT AGP
KT880 Screen Draw problem
KT880 DELTA mainboard and 2D speed decrease
MSI kt880 Delta + Graphics card = problems
KT880 Slow Screen Draw and other problems
KT880 DELTA FSR Problem with graphics in Win XP
The number of reported cases is more than the # of threads because some users entered into existing threads to report they had the same problem with KT880. MSI should be investigating this issue.

KT880 Slow Screen Draw and other problems

Is there a performance issue with the Kt880 boards that causes it to draw the screen slow, and causes the onboard LAN to fight with the USB controllers?
Do I need to reduce the FSB of my RAM @333 to the FSB of the 2400+ @266?
Maybe there are some BIOS tweaks that fix this problem?

Not sure yet but I think I have sorted out most of the bugs.
Changing the FSB speeds and removing a stick of ram does nothing, except to reduce the system performance slightly.
Updated BIOS to latest. No change.
Repair install after removing Symantec AV 9 Corp, and System Works 2005. helped some.
Removing the NIC, uninstalling all Networking components then putting it all back really made an improvment.
Then I turned on the SATA controller and let it install the PCI to IDE bridges and that helped. Removed the VIA CPU to AGP driver and it reinstalled it's self. slight improvment on the screen draw problem.
Getting the USB to stop messing with the PCI bus was easy. I removed all the PCI cards RESET Bios data, reinstall VIA 4.53, added the PCI cards in one at a time then added on the 2 extra drives. Will change the drives to SATA next week.
I think the whole problem comes from the install CD I made with NLight. Nlight has an option to remove components, turn off SFP and modify the UXTHEME.dll, and the TCPIP.sys file.
After work Monday I will try a fresh install of Win XP OEM original on a spare drive, and update it to SP1, then SP2 and see how it goes.
So far game play is excellent with good frame rates and no crashes. My team mates were complaining of poor frame rates on a custom BF1942 DC Map with frames of under 10FPS where I was at 65 to 100FPS.
That poor KT600 I had was probably fine

EHP1 Upgarde Monitor screen resolution problem in a support message

Hi Experts,
We have recently upgraded our Solution manager to EHP1, iam facing a screen resolution problem with 15 inch monitors.
Our key users have 15 inch monitors to their system and when they try to reply a support message under transaction data-> Overview tab -> reply it is showing only one line for them , due to which they are unable to enter the complete data in it.
How ever We have found that this does not occur with 17 inc monitors as the required screen resoution 1280* 1024 is possible due to bigger size of the monitor.
can any one suggest how to make the overview tab visible completely with small resolution monitors.
Thanks
Nanda

Mac Pro 2007 with Nvidia 8800GT screen redraw problems on Mac OS 10.5.2

I seem to be having a slight screen redraw problem. Such as when grabbing the browser window and moving up and down it seems the redraw can't keep up,also seems problematic when watching flash or other video online. It does it in the finder too for windows listings or in icon view there is a fluttering or flashing back and forth, kind of like a white super split second flash when dragging the window box smaller or larger not as bad as when making smaller. Hard to describe but my original Ge-force that I pulled was not having these characteristics. I figure that the drivers need tweaking. In windows I am not getting these results. I have newer boot camp installed as well as the leopard graphics update done so I am trying to see if others are having a slight problem or maybe it is me.
Also I make certain it is not heat related as I monitor that and it does not matter at what temp it is.

Here's another similar experience -- and my solution.
I bought a Quad-core 2.8GHz (8GB RAM) Mac Pro in May and got the "better" Nvidia 8800GT. I thought I was happy, but there were redraw issues after sleeping and a display "roughness" I found annoying. Upgrading to OSX 10.5.4 didn't help.
I found it to be mostly absent on startup, but sleeping the Mac would bring it on. I.e., after sleep, the relatiionship between the 8800GT would be different than before. when I logged out and in again, the problem woud vanish. No what I expect from a "superior" graphics card. I ascribed it to funky drivers from Apple.
The store I bought the Mac from offered to swap for my suggestion of an ATI HD 3870, so I went for it about a week ago.
This card is far smoother than the 8800GT and just as fast in rendering benchmerks for graphics. (I'm not a gamer.) I am a happy camper! There is no stuttering, oddball redraw, or jerkiness as there had been with the 8800. It's perfect! Never mind that it may be 5% slower for gamers, it feels faster for my use.
BUT NOTE: As I now see from reading several forums, I wasn't alone is getting a screaming-Mimi at first! The first 3870 ran at nearly full fan speed at power-up. The speed changed a little with resolution changes on my big Mitsubishi CRT monitor, and actually stopped when I switched to 1080x1920 @ 72Hz! Then the fan would start and quit, start and quit randomly -- convincing me it was defective.
I returned this RED-shrouded unit and the store replaced it, this time with (randomly) a BLUE-shrouded unit. (Slightly lower serial.)
Bottom Line: This replacement 3870 is quiet as a mouse! Fan runs near-silently at startup and after hours of regular use in a 75ºF room. I get the distinct feeling that a bunch of cards with wonky fan controllers were built, and some of us got 'em.
Bad News: The ATI HD 3870 does NOT support multiple refresh rates under Windows XP-SP2 booting the Mac Pro, with or without Boot Camp drivers installed. No version of the ATI drivers fixes this, and ATI does not officially support Boot Camp yet. You can choose a resolution okay, but you're stuck at 60Hz refresh -- a pain for those of us who hate 60Hz flicker. (I like 100Hz refresh.)

Nokia Lumia 1520 - Screen Brightness Problem

I have two Nokia Lumia 1520.
Both of them have the same problem. I will explain the problem to you in detail and before that let me assure you I am a Windows Phone long time user , have been part of the development , developed several apps for the platform and I have used Lumia 800 , 720 , 920 , 925 and now 1520. So I am well aware of all the settings , sunlight readability , automatic brightness etc. This problem is not due to any of these , I can assure you
Now the problem ,
I set the automatic brightness option OFF
I move the brightness to HIGH
Then I lock the phone
When I unlock the phone , the brightness drops by 10% suddenly without any intervention
This problem happens sometime. Some days I see this problem , some days I don't and there are few days where I see this problem very heavily.
I purchased another 1520 and it has the same problem. I am very sure , from my experience that this is a firm ware issue. This is NOT a hardware problem , but a serious problem from your software end. It is prudent that Nokia recognizes this problem and finds a solution to this. Interestingly , I am not the only one who is facing this problem , the whole globe is facing the same problem and for such a pricey phone , this is a frustrating experience - very frustrating. I am sending some links , which will show the problems users are facing:

The phone is rock solid and amazing except this irritating problem.
I have only few days within which I can request a exchange from the merchant. So if any Nokia official can confirm that a software fix is on the way , it would be super helpful
Nokia , please help !
Moderator's note: We have removed the IMEI numbers. Posting of personal information is not allowed in this forum for security purposes.

I have Nokia Lumia 1520 Black.
I have also been facing the same problem with screen brightness.
The problem occurs only when the Brightness is in Automatic mode.
--> When the Brightness is set to Automatic mode & take out from dark location to bright location the display turns out to weird grey color.
--> And then if the brightness is set to low, medium or high display comes to normal.
Is this issue related to the hardware or software.
If it is related to the Software will you be able to fix it ? or else How about the replacing with the new one ?
Awaiting for the response.

Screen refresh problem where data is entered and the screen doesn't refresh

Many people in the company are experiencing the odd screen refresh problem where data is entered and the screen doesn't refresh to show the updated result in corresponding cell formulas.
Microsoft have issued a hotfix to fix the issue for Excel 2003 as shown. Microsoft released a hotfix for this problem (<a href="advisory?ID=978908">KB978908</a>). Display memory tends to pick up data from hidden sheets and pastes it
into the active screen. No impact on the file. This occurs when protecting and unprotecting worksheets in VBA. I also suspect that enabling and disabling screen refresh contributes to this problem. In any case there is a fix, albeit with the following disclaimer:
As of yet I have not been able to find a fix for this for office 2010 and 2013, Any suggestions would be great.

Hi,
Based on your description, Excel does not show the text strings when you typing. It may be caused by the cell format, if we set the cell format as ";;;" in custom format, it will not display the text that you typed.
And the issue may be caused by the third-party input method, there are some compatibility issue between them.
If the issue still exits, please try the following methods
Verify/install the latest updates
Repair your Office program

Hello,
Did you check if there are no objects on that index slide that have a fading transition? You should set the transition for every object to 'No transition'. The transition can be found in the Properties dialog, tab Options.

Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Has anyone else had a screen separation problem with the ipad?

Has anyone else had a screen separation problem with the ipad?

Does it really matter whether anyone else has? If you have, that's a problem for you whether or not anyone else has experienced the same issue. Call Apple tech support or take the iPad to an Apple Store, if there's one in your area, and they'll replace the iPad unless it's determined that the problem was caused by some sort of accident rather than a factory defect.

Q10 Screen Sizing Problem in Blackberry 10.3

Has anyone else noticed that there seems to be a screen sizing problem in Blackberry 10.3.
When you wake the screeen with a gesture or pull the handset from the Q10 pocket, the screen that it "wakes" up to is enlarged, requiring the user to use the finger gestures to shrink it down to regular size.
Or have I just not mastered 10.3 yet?

Hi Folks,
I've sussed this one out!
It is not a problem with the screen resolution or the software update, I had within the accessibility settings the "Magnify Mode" enabled.
Disable this and the screen behaves perfectly..........

Screen resolution problem in table control

when i was transfering data in BDC using table control,i got screen resolution problem.
how to rectify the problem?

Hi,
Check this coding.
WA_CTU_PARAMS type ctu_params.
WA_CTU_PARAMS-DISMODE = 'N'. "no screen mode
WA_CTU_PARAMS-UPDMODE = 'S'. "synchronous update
WA_CTU_PARAMS-NOBINPT = 'X'.
WA_CTU_PARAMS-NOBIEND = 'X'.
WA_CTU_PARAMS-DEFSIZE = 'X'. "Default size
CALL TRANSACTION 'VA01' USING it_bdcdata
OPTIONS FROM WA_CTU_PARAMS
MESSAGES INTO it_mesg.
Default size will play good role in terms of resolution. in one system in table control you can see 10rows, but in others system it will show 20 records. it depends on resolution. but when you set the default size then it will take same (default screen size) in all the systems when you run BDC.
Hope this resolves your query.
Reward all the helpful answers.
Regards
