MCP7A Ultra Chipset (GeForce 9400) compatibility?

Hello all! I'm planning to purchase a new Core 2 Quad motherboard, for an Arch-based NAS server and secondary box. I was thinking of using one of the GeForce 9300/9400 integrated boards, so I would have the benefits of a video chipset without a separate card, but recently I read that this is not supported in Linux. Can anyone confirm that boards like http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Mot … uctID=2946 are viable? Even on the Nvidia site, they have the graphics drivers, but no chipset drivers for Linux.
Thanks.

Hmmm... on Nvidia's site it seems to insinuate that chipset drivers for Nforce boards (Including the GeForce 9400 ones) are included in the kernal - except for really old versions, which it seems you can download for Nforce1-4 based gear.
Any idea? I guess my key question at the moment is if I should purchase one of these boards, or a P45 based mATX.

K9VGM-V and KFA GeForce 9400 GT

Well I've had this PC awhile, got a K9VGM-V motherboard and now I'm trying to install a KFA GeForce 9400 GT so I can play some video games XD
Anyways I load up the comp and I hear some ticking and then it finally goes, then when I get in and try to install the drivers it tells me something like a compatible hardware couldn't be found. And when I go to hardware wizard it also doesn't find it. I've looked around and it seems like there's some conflict with VIA chipset an PCI-E 2.0 graphics cards or something, anyways that's the situation I'm in and wondering what I need to do to get this to work. Thanks,

I think those are the specs offhand. If I unplug my monitor and plug it into the graphics card I get a black screen, but while unplugged I get a no signal message, so apparently I'm getting a signal from the graphics card it's just not sending anything. As I said before when I try and install drivers from the CD it tells me something like no compatible hardware found, and when I run the device wizard or check device manager there's no mention of this new graphics card. No I haven't disabled the onboard vga in bios or uninstalled the onboard vga drivers either. The drivers for the KFA GeForce 9400 GT that I've tried to install are: ForceWare 177.42 WinXP 32Bit, ForceWare 177.31 WinXP 32Bit, ForceWare 177.19 WinXP 32Bit Those are the drivers that come on the CD with the graphics card. Mostly I haven't disabled the onboard vga and uninstalled those drivers is because in the past I've always been able to install my graphics card and use display settings to switch graphics cards around and I'm a little afraid that if I uninstall and disable onboard graphics that I'll have trouble getting them back on if I can't get the graphics card working.

I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro, I am trying to run MW3 but it will not work without crashing a few minuets into the game. The general specs on my computer are a dual processor 2.53 ghz. 4 gb ram and a NVIDIA geforce 9400 (9600 is the alternate card)

Things to note:
I have been unable to update firmware on this computer for about a year now. Im not sure why.
I am running a bootleg copy of Windows XP on this computer, I would not like to spend $149 to get Windows 7 if possible.
any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Why don't you take your 'old' MBP into your local Apple Store and have them check out everything that's wrong with it - and I mean everything? Then, when you get an estimate about how much it would cost to get the machine completely repaired, ask about the Apple flat-rate repair pricing?
It's worth a shot - and with what you may save, you can put in the bank for a new MBP.

Does Sims 3 Pets work with Snow Leopard and NVIDIA GeForce 9400 graphics?

So I recently purchased Sims 3 Pets, because as I'm sure someone has heard, my computer met the tech specs published on the game box. But I have the problem in the game that whenever a horse appears, the game freezes. I've heard that updating Leopard (I have 10.5.8) to Snow Leopard fixes the problem. However, I've also heard that Sims 3 does not work with NVIDIA GeForce 9400 graphics. (But apparently Snow Leopard needs this graphic card to run?).
So my main question is does anyone know if Sims 3 Pets works with a NVIDIA GeForce 9400 card and Snow Leopard?

*** Just a Note: I've been playing the original Sims 3 game on my mac since it originally came out. I haven't had problems until this particular expansion pack.

Is NVIDIA GeForce 9400 the same as GeForce 9400M?

Final Cut Pro X system requirements claim I need a GeForce 9400M to use the software but my Mac says I simply have a GeForce 9400. Are they essentially the same?

Hi,
Going to the Nvidia website, it is clear that they regard the 9400 and the 9400M as different. Is it only the form factor (M seems to be meant for laptops) or are there greater differences? I don't know. Mac users are usually saved from the Windows problems with driver updates, but that's another issue.
But my aging iMac does well enough with FCP X and seems to have the 9400 graphics card.
I agree, try the trial version and see what happens.

Temparature of nForce4 Ultra chipset ?

Hi Friends,
I am new here.
I have MSI K8N-NEO4-PLATINUM motherboard with AMD X2 3800 with 512DDR400x2 with MSI 7600GS PCI-Ex card.
My Cabinet has one single Temparature Prob, which I have install at the side of CHIPSET nForce4 Ultra chipset's Heat-sink cum Fan. While playing games these are the results -
CPU : 38-45C max (Core Center)
SYS : 38-45C max (Core Center)
CHIPSET : 45-48C (by the Temparature Prob) never in 50s
Please, note that INDIA is quite HOT country and environmental temparature is in general about 28C to 30C.
My Questions -
1. is the Temparature, specially the CHIPSET, is safe ?
2. what should be the PANIC Temparature for the CHIPSET ?
Please reply soon.

Quote from: iosoft on 20-August-06, 20:13:53
I can't install anything on the CHIPSET as the Graphics card is just 2mm over the CHIPSET HeatSink.
Will I install a 80mm FAN and focus it on the CHIPSET ?
and one more thing, CHIPSET never goes in 50s.
You can also considered for the Zalman heatsink. But you may need to do some modding on it's fins although it's quite near to the GPU but maybe with mod it should be fine. Make sure you've better ventilation in your case like fan 12CM is better than 8cm .Also if you're too worried you can open the side casing and see any different with that? ANyway that temp is not bad also as long don't go to 60C then you will worried about it.Gd luck.

Geforce 9400 vs. 9400M

My Mac Mini late 2009 should have the NVIDIA Geforce 9400M graphics card. Instead only the 9400 is shown in "about this Mac". I have reasons to assume that certain problems are connected to the 9400. Why do I not have the 9400M - or is it simply displayed incorrectly in the "About this Mac"?

Per this
Re: Is NVIDIA GeForce 9400 the same as GeForce 9400M?
They seem to be the same except in form factory. M is for mobile applications which is used on the Mini

Now... don't LOL, but there is a reason I picked the 3200+ instead of the 3000+, but I can't remember why???
Probably because the 3000+ only has a 9x maximum multiplier, whereas the 3200+ will go to 10x.
2600MHz at 9x means a FSB of 289MHz and ram at 289MHz for best performance. Will your ram do 289MHz? Of course you *can* run your memory and fsb async, but I prefer not to.

21.5 iMac GeForce 9400 - Low Refresh Rate

Anyone have a 21.5" iMac with GeForce 9400 10.6.6? Playing the movie below, I only get about ~30 fps playback according to QuickTime Player 7's info window, and according to the frame meter in Quartz Debug. For you fellow coders, even CVDisplayLink callbacks only go at ~30 fps.
I've freshly restarted the machine, and there's nothing odd installed on the system at all. It really appears there's a hardware problem with not being able to get to 60 fps.

Could be a bad memory problem or an issue with Parallels. Try booting into Safe Mode and see if the panics cease.

NVIDIA GeForce 9400 iTunes video hiccups

On Mac OS, as soon as I start up iTunes, my video display seizes up (drops frames for a few hundred milliseconds) every 5 seconds or so, not just in iTunes playback, but across the entire display. This happens whether or not I am playing a video file. As soon as I quit iTunes, the freezes disappear. My computer is a Mac Mini with an NVIDIA GeForce 9400 video card, which I understand can be problematic with iTunes.
Here's the strange part: When I run iTunes on the Windows 7 partition of the same computer - iTunes plays files perfectly well with no freezes at all. Let me stress - the hardware is exactly the same: iTunes works for me under Windows 7, but not under Mac OS, which seems really weird!
Any advice gratefully accepted.

It doesn't use system memory, it can use if needs.
That's how Vista and W7 works:

Where can I find a NVDIA GeForce 9400 driver upgrade?

imac9.1 is continually crashing. The problem report is indicating it is in "com.apple.GeForce(5.4.8)".
I assume what I need is to upgrade the NVIDIA GeForce 9400 driver, but I can't find it anywhere,
not even on the official NVIDIA site. Anybody know ehre I can find it?

Hi, we're stuck with what Apple gives us in the OS, before reinstalling 10.5, try reinstalling the big 10.5.8 combo.
Repair Permissions afterwords, reboot.
1058 Combo Update, 10.5.8...
http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

Neo 2 Platinum nForce 3 Ultra chipset drivers?

Does anyone know of a place that I can grab the chipset drivers that MSI provides for the nForce 3 Ultra chipset? I have tried the ones from the nVidia site and after they install my network card the machine reboots and windows won't load. Prior to that(about 2 weeks before this reformat) I installed the drivers from the MSI site without a hitch. Normally i'd just grab them from here but the problem is it has been almost 8+ hours now and the site containing all the drivers/bios etc.. is giving me mysql errors or not loading at all.
edit nm finally came back up.

The 5.11 driver set has caused a lot of people problems with the network driver; many people are sticking with 5.10 drivers instead, which also be downloaded from the nVidia site and are arguably the most recent stable set. The ones on the MSI site work for you because they're older (5.03 IIRC), but you can probably update to 5.10 without any problems.

MSI KT3 Ultra ARU & GeForce 3 TI200

A little prob:
When I run my GF3 in AGP mode, all my games hang after playing 1 min. Then when I change the "Via Tech CPU to AGP-controller" to "PCI standard PCI to PCI brigde" thereby running my GF3 in PCI-mode everything runs fine. Then I went into "dxdiag" and saw that "Acceleration of AGP-struktur" was not availble. So I was thinking, am I looseing enything by running the GF3 in PCI-mode and is it the MSI or the GF3 that is causeing this problem.
I have tried all the VIA 4in1 drivers and they did not help.
My specs:
MSI KT3 Ultra ARU
Athlon XP 1900+
Palite Daytona Geforce 3 TI200
Windows XP pro

i have the kt3 ultra with a geforce 3 ti200 and it runs flawless.. i use the det 30.30 drivers. one thing i noticed with geforce 3 cards is if i have my agp apperature set to anything but 128 games will freeze and get all kinds off lock ups. if i were you i would look around this forum for the bios setup guide for the kt3 ultra! and set your bios according to that guide
if you cant find it here goto http://www.amdmb.com and go to the msi forum there and the set up guide is there
hopefully that helps!!!!

MSI Twin Frozr GeForce 770 Compatibility Issue?

My new system crashes intermittently during any game. I normally can play for about a half hour but the times very greatly. Also the way the game crashes varies. Sometimes the game will just shut game. Sometimes it will freeze. And Sometimes the computer will turn right off.
I think it might be a compatibility issue because when I put my other video card (A GeForce 550ti) into this computer it runs fine. Also when I run the GeForce 770 in my other computer it seems to run fine there too.
Do you guys think this is a hardware compatibility issue? Or do you have any troubleshooting suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Is OS X Lion now ok for MBP 7,1 NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics, previously people reporting problems ?

You can use it without a problem, and you can edit the settings by going to http://192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.254.
I haven't seen any issues with the E series from Cisco
