Losing signal to TV – NX7600GT Diamond Plus

I hope somebody in here can help me.
I got my new GFX a month ago, which is a NX7600GT Diamond Plus – chosen because it has a HDMI port.
Now I’m trying to get card working with both my monitor and TV, which is not going according to plans. I’m using the newest NVIDIA driver for Vista Home Premium that has found my TV ones, but still no picture on the TV. When trying again I can’t get NVIDIA to find my TV at all.
Actual it can get the TV to show the boot of the computer, but when Windows takes over the TV loses the signal.
Why can’t the TV be found and why can it not display the signal from the GFX card?
Looking forward hearing from you.
JB:-)

Does it work when using XP?
Could be a Vista problem.
The machine I'm using now is newly build, and have nothing else then Vista installed on it - so no Win XP try.
Anyway it can not be Vista, because MSI has certified the card to Vista, so it have to be something else.

  • NX7600GT Diamond Plus Questions

    Hey Everyone,
      My questions today are about the  NX7600GT Diamond Plus video card. I am thinking about building a Home Theater PC and I was looking at the MSI 7600GT Diamond Plus card, because of the HDMI port.  Does this port besides carrying video carry sound as well? if so what kind is it, 2 CH, Digital, etc.? If it doesn't any recommends on cards that will carry very good sound quality out?  Also, are there any benefits to having two of these cards instead of one, other then having two 7600 GTs for playing games?  Finally, if I play a DVD on my computer(which is encrypted) and run the HDMI cable from the card to a DVD player/recorder, will I be able to record the movie or will copyright bs problems occur?  Sry for all the noob questions, but I am new to the HTPC arena.
    Thanks
     

    Hello
    I currently own this card and might be able to answer your questions.
    This card will send digital S/PDIF sound through the hdmi port if your motherboard or sound card has spdif cababilities.  This can be done one of two ways.  Option A:  If you have an internal header off of your mobo/soundcard you can use the supplied internal spdif cable.  Option B:  If you don't have an internal header (I don't and use this method) you can use the supplied RCA pass-through cable conecting the RCA end to your spdif out and the other end to the VGA.  Aside from being able to SLI them and increase the performance of some programs there is no advantage to having two as you will only be able to use the ports on one.
    I'm not entirely sure about being able to copy a movie.  I wasn't aware that there were any DVD recorders with HDMI inputs on the market.  If you have a standard definition DVD (not Blue-ray or HD-DVD) you probably shouldn't run into any copyright problems.  However I've found that many DVDs will refuse to play on my computer if a TV out port is activated, you may or may not run into this with the HDMI port.  This isn't card specific, from talking with tech support this is apparently present on all nvidia 7-series cards.
    Overall I was really impressed with how this card handled the digital sound, but was not impressed with the quality of the HDMI video signal.  The signal was being overscanned, and looked horrible in comparison to the analogue signal from my card.  This is really no surprise considering this is the first ever HDMI card.  Theres always going to be bugs at first.  If you're planning on building an HTPC I would suggest using the plain old RGB (15 pin analogue) if your HDTV has the input (most do).  You won't run into any DRM restrictions using this method and the quality difference (versus DVI) is hardly, if at all, noticable on today's HDTVs and projectors.

  • NX7600GT Diamond Plus and fan speed with Dual Core Center

    I just got a NX 7600GT Diamond Plus for my HTPC. I noted that Riva Tuner and other utilities are not able to control the fan speed of the video card. The only way one can control the fan speed is via Dual Core Center and 3D Core Cell. The problem is that the default setting for fan speed on Dual Core Center is too high and clearly audible. How can I get Dual Core Center to start with user defined presets during windows start-up/boot-up ?
    What I want to do is to put the fan into 'SILENT' mode automatically during Dual Core Center start-up. Any ideas / suggestions ?

    Quote from: BOSSKILLER on 17-January-07, 00:44:11
    well no need to edit manually, MSI provided everythink in easy way from core center.
    select advanced mode, create your custom profile pickup your desired settings,(setup maximum FAN RPM via buttons) and save it to custom profile.
    suggest you to read help section from program.
    So the custom profile is automatically loaded every time DualCoreCenter starts up ? Maybe there is something wrong with my install of DCC, I cannot get it to load custom profiles automatically upon startup. I can save the changes to say "User Profile 1" but the profile active on startup always is the "default" profile ...

  • NX7600GT Diamond Plus - Dual Monitor Problem

    Hi Folks
    I have the above card on XP SP3 running the latest nvidia drivers - never had MSI drivers on this installation.  Both monitors have the correct drivers installed.
    I just bought a lovely 24" HDMI monitor and was hoping to have it running with my existing DVI LCD monitor.
    The 24" is connected by the HDMI cable, 19" LCD is on the DVI connection.
    Thing is I cannot get an extended desktop option (I presume this is Dualview in nVidia speak).  It just doesn't exist for me!  The only thing I can manage is a Clone view, or single display.
    I've tried running the dual display wizard and setting to force TV detection thing, but nothing seems to give me the extend desktop or dualview option.
    Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong please.  I've had a search of these forums and the net and I can't find anyone having the same problems!
    Thanks for any help
    Balders
    edit...Sorry for stating the bleeding obvious, but for anyone who doesn't know (it's pretty old) this is the card with only one DVI output and one HDMI output.

    Well!
    Just to let you know I did exactly the same thing as I did last night, except this time it worked!
    God knows!  Must have been one of them there gremlins!

  • NX7600GT Diamond Plus & PowerDVD Ultra

    Hello,
    While watching HD-DVD movies with Cyberlink PowerDVD Ultra, I get a thin green line on the bottom of the picture. A friend of mine, with the same graphic card, has the same probleme. Is it a known issue ? Thanks.

    This line exists in all HD-DVD movies played back with PowerDVD Ultra.
    It is not possible it comes from my projector, since this line does not exist with an ATI card.
    It is visible all the time.
    It is always the last bottom line.

  • NX8600GTS - Diamond Plus HDMI Problem

    I have this new video card and am trying to connect a single display via HDMI only.  I do not wish to use DVI.  I'm having difficulity in setting this up properly.  I need help.  So far the only way I can get this to work is using Dual Display option and use DVI and then send the signal to the HDMI interface; however it requires the DVI connecter be active.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I too am having this problem!!  This is a serious problem that someone from MSI needs to address.  I bought this card to use on my HTPC in my living room on my new Sony 52" LCD for gaming and HDTV.  If I plug just the HDMI in then then everything works up until the point Windows is supposed to start, and the sytem goes still and no display unless I plug something into the DVI port, even a VGA adapter to the TV's built in PC input, then suddently the system starts to boot.  I don't want to have to flip back and forth just to get windows to boot everytime!
    I did some searching on the internet and noticed other people have had this problem in the past with older model Nvidia cards like the 6800.  They appeared to have solved the problem by updating the Nvidia Bios with an ASUS version bios (even though their card was a different manufacturer).  I don't want to attempt this, but the moral of the story is it means the problem most likely is bios related, not driver.  Also the fact that Windows doesn't even boot yet, meaning the driver isn't even loaded yet, confirms that assumption.  What is probably happening is Windows is not detecting any displays so it doesn't boot.  I tried to update the MSI bios but apparently it's at the most current version, and there are no older versions listed for download I could try.
    Can someone from MSI please help us out here with this problem?  Most of the people who buy this HDMI card want to plug it into their HDTV as the only display.  If you can't do that with the HDMI it's worthless for that use!

    I have the same problem as the original poster with still no solution.
    Maybe I can clear it up a little as far as the specific problem.
    Hardware:
    MSI 8600GTS Diamond Plus (just one, no sli)
    MSI K9N SLI MB
    Corsair XMS2 Ram
    Sony Bravia 60" Projection TV
    If I plug the video card into a regular monitor via DVI, video card works great. Boots into Windows XP, everything is good.
    As soon as I disconnect the card from the monitor and move it to the tv and connect the tv via HDMI, system can boot into BIOS but after the summary screen, goes blank and Windows won't load. No HDD active LED, nothing.
    As soon as I plug in a monitor via DVI, boot into Windows, plug in HDMI, switch to Multiple monitors, I can then use the TV as a monitor.
    This wont due since I don't want to have a monitor sitting next to my TV all the time.
    I don't want to use another output method for my TV as, the way my sound system is connected, I don't want to have to select different sound sources everytime I switch input's on my tv (if that makes sense to anyone).
    I have done a MSILive BIOS update for the card but I'm not sure what it did since I didn't read the release notes.
    Drivers have no affect in this problem since it doesn't physically boot into Windows anyway.
    ANY HELP WOULD BE AWESOME!!!

  • 7600GT Diamond plus

    I am interested to buy the above product. But i notice the card does not have HDCP. Does that mean it cant play hdcp media. is it hdcp done can be supported through software??

    From what I understand this particular 7600GT card is HDCP compliant, whereas the older 7600GT cards from MSI(pre "diamond plus") are not.  I'm guessing thats why they made this nearly identical card to the older versions.  I'm not 100% sure though.
    Oh...I'll add my own questions too about the card as I'm somewhat interested in it:
    Does it have full TV out functionality?  (Do ALL the TV out ports work?  i.e. composite / s-video / component y-pr-pb)
    Does the default MSI driver work for all of the above?
    Does it pass the Windows logo testing when you attempt to load a driver?
    If you hook multiple TVs up to the card do the signals bleed into eachother?
    Can you play a DVD on your TV with this card?
    Just to check because ive had all of the above issues with my last two nvidia 7-series cards.
    One more...
    How does it compare to the 7900gt (my current vga) in terms of overall performance and compatibility?
    Basically would this only be a slight, unnoticable "downgrade", so to say, for my games and movies?
    thanks for any info

    Conclusion
    First off, let us say that the K8N Diamond Plus is an excellent feature-rich, enthusiast motherboard. As the successor to the K8N Diamond, we had expected nothing less from MSI. However, therein lies a fundamental problem with the motherboard. It is all too similar to the K8N Diamond. In terms of features, the exact same VIA FireWire, Marvel Ethernet and Silicon Image controllers have been used. Even the updated Audigy SE audio onboard is nothing but a re-hash of the Live! 24-bit, using the same DSP,ADC and DAC ships as well. Sure, the Audigy SE carries a better signal-to-noise ratio, but when put in a gaming environment, we don't think it would be noticeable over the din of rocket launchers, fireballs and napalm explosions.
    Even when it comes down to performance, the K8N Diamond Plus matches the K8N Diamond to a tee
    Hardly sounds inspirational

  • K8N Diamond Plus Audio Problem

    New rig - have the K8N Diamond Plus, AMD 64 X2 4400+, Logictechz5300-e speakers.  When testing audio - the front speaker channel does not work - the center and rear are fine - tested to make sure it wasn't the speakers - definitely a mobo problem.  Have tried it set to 5.1, 6 and 8 channels.  Has anyone else experienced this issue??
    Thx

    The audio signal from DVD or CD is passingthrough IDE CABLE digital..(When listen CD audio).Now with X-FI you must buy(of corse if you have the money) 7.1 audio speakers like mine(gigaworks s750) to take full advance of your card.Believe me you won't regret it!.

  • MSI K8N Diamond Plus - Guide to my first week

    OK, not a newb here, but been around the block quite a bit.   MSI K8N Diamond Plus is my 5th A64 mobo (ECS K8M800, my daily undestroyed computer, K8T800, my 12 year olds gamer, Asus A8V Deluxe, first 939 system, Abit AN8 SLI, first SLI gamer, and now the MSI Diamond Plus).   Had the KDP (K8N Diamond Plus) for more than a week now, and here's what I've learned.
    This is state of the art again, and we have no one to blame but ourselves for the pain this causes us when we upgrade like lunatics 
    And as usual, the drivers and BIOS are al Dente (i.e. not cooked enought yet, a little raw)
    MSI is also oddly silent on this system, which is wierd, as they are a large company, and specifically cater to enthusiasts.  But their BIOS guys are MIA.  Hopefully this will not be forever.  Asus, ABIT, DFI, Epox are always fast with fixes
    The board is a nice design, with everything basically accessible, as much as any other board.   Lots of purposeful components, not too many dumb frills.  No tooty fruity colors, but rather practical parts.
    The new 2 piece NForce chipset is fine, and the MSI guys gave us a decent, but funky cooler.  It gets a little warm to the touch when you pound on it with Prime95, or Quake4, but other than that it is fine
    The manual has a zillion typos, and fortunately for us in this forum, we have shared what we've learned.  The translation from Chinese to English leaves quite a bit to be desired, and hopefully, MSI will learn from Asus and Abit and get a better translation service.  In 2006 this is just plain stupid, especially with a $225 board   
    As usual, the mobo supplied tweaker utilities are just aweful.  They look like a hallucination from a Hunter S Thompson book, and they work about as well.  Core center is a sad state of affairs, and the rest of them just burrow their way into your otherwise stable system and cause it to have poor behavior.  And therefore as usual, the BIOS is the best way, if slowest, to tweak this bundle of parts
    Which brings us to the BIOS.  IMHO, the worst one I've seen on a high end board.  ZERO explanation for half the settings (this is not strange in and of itself, BIOS is still a black art, but in a tweakers board, we should have some basic explanation  )
    There seem to be adequate settings in the BIOS for all sorts of doodads and gizmos, but who the heck knows what half of them are.  Roger points out rightfully, that we now need to "Tune" across all these different intermediary bus structures and test.  But with the lack of info from either NVidia, MSI or anyone else for that matter, its kinda hard to know where to start.
    The board is clearly sensitive, which is a result of it being high strung.  This is no different than any "first out" product I've ever bought.  Most take 2 or 3 turns of the crank to get totally stable and forgiving.  This one hated my OCZ platinum EL 2Gb kit memory, and it brought out the worst in one of the SLI based EVGA 7800 GT COs.   These components worked in the Abit AN8 SLI (although not always great), but the MSI has ZERO tolerance for even the slightest pertubation from the memory.  It was BSOD city until I removed both of these components by process of elimination that took probably 100 hours
    Once I removed the bad components, and replaced the memory with Geil Ultra X 2x512 2-2-2-5, it worked great, ran Prime95 for 10 hours with no errors, and seems reasonably stable.  I've RMA-d the bad 7800GT CO back to EVGA, and will report back on how SLI behaves when I get the new one (cross shipped of course, I haveno patience )
    I also now need to replace the 2Gb RAM kit with something that the board will tolerate.  I may RMA the 2Gb kit back to OCZ and try another one, but I dunno.   I love OCZ but I have a bad feeling about this, even though they have great!!! support.  I may try OCZ PC4000 or the RAM that Roger successfully used.
    I did upgrade to the 1.16 BIOS, and found that some new things were added, as well as voltage control in Cell was a little better, but registration of changes in voltage is still a disaster.   I adjusted a bunch of times, it didn't register, and I ended up smoking a new A64 3700+ Diego with 1.95 volts, even though the BIOS claimed it was 1.53.  I had to rebot to see what was going on.   The Thermalright XP-90 kept the proc from melting down through the earth
    Finally, I hope this board attracts more people, and therefore more tweakers that can figure out all these gadgets and settings.  Everyone flocked to the Asus X16 SLI product, which is too bad, as this one needs lots o' folks to hack it up for us to figure out what is going on.
    The on board Creative audio sounds lousy to my ears, and I will replace it with an Audigy 2ZS gamer that I had in the Abit.  It just sounds better, but hopefully the drivers will not trash my newly stable system.   Creative scares me, they scare me alot.
    I've been able to get the CPU up to 2.4Ghz, with a .5 volt bump to the CPU and 2.9 volts into the Geil memory.  So far, so stable, no smoke coming out yet 
    I hope this info is somewhat valuable to someone on this board.  I will post details of all changes that I make, as others are doing, so we can at least take care of ourselves with this thing.

    first of all, i do think that all the settings in the BIOS have an explanation in the manual, even if it's a basic one. if that explanation doesn't tell you everything in detail, is because if you do need a detailed explanation of the settings, you probably shouldn't be messing around with those settings.

    a 0.5V  bump? again, you must be joking. maybe 0.05V.

    The thing is, if i stick all the for ram pieces into the pc, it tends to crash down after a while or during the booting with PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA as error msg.
    but if i take two pieces out and run all with 1 gb no problems occour. This is starting to really annoy me, so i'm hoping someone has the know how to help me out, i'd really appriciate any suggestions or or solutions, i just want to run my system with 2gb of ram

    run memtest on the system and tell us if you get any errors. it is probably a bad configuration of the memory timings and voltages. try to get the timings and voltages from the manufacturer's web page and then set up manually in bios.
