Msi fx5900&terratec tv problem

First of all, English are not my native language,that means I make many (even too much) mistakes,but I hope you will be able to understand and help me.
Specs:
GA 8inxp
P4 2.4
512 MB ddr
Audigy
Terratec cinergy 400 tv tuner
MSI 5900FX-vivo 128MB
Win XP
After installing MSI vga,my tv tuner is no longer functional. Going back to Ti 4600(without vivo), tv-tuner works fine.
To be more specific, with msi_vga tv-tuner disappears from device manager and I cannot install drivers. Doing so via add_hardware_wizard the dreadfull code 10 message appears and,of course, tv-tuner does not work.
I have tried the latest drivers, including wdm(vivo and vivo_tv tuner) with out succes.I have also tried the last two drivers for cinergy.
Considering that cinergy works fine with my Ti suppose the problem is MSI's vga.So,please, don't adress me to Terratec.
Any sugestion is welcome, a solution is even more .
If a moderator or any one from technicall support team read my mail,please send me the bios of msi 5900/128MB without vivo. I am willing to try it.I have a hint that vivo causes the problem.
Thank you in advance (and excuse my English)

I guess MSI's tech support is not that great after all
A month later my request and no response from MSI.
I am really dissapointed and being so I will not buy any MSI product nor I will suggest them to anyone.
Farewell MSI

Trying to clock MSI FX5900 TD128

First of all: HI! (This is my first post here ) )
I recently got muself a MSI FX5900 TD128. I installed the msi drivers and I saw it is possible to adjust the clock there. It is one (2D) that says 300mhz and one (3D) that says 400mhz. I've tried to adjust the 3D-clock to 450mhz (ultra settings) but when I reboot the pc it is back at 400mhz.
I don't know if I am doing this right and what the difference on 2d and 3d-clock is. Does anybody know?

Hi Metaman,
You are having the same problem that I had with my FX5200 that the settings were not being saved. I do not know why this is.
I downloaded the Geforce tweak utility from http://download.guru3d.com/gtu/ this allows you to change clock settings.
P.S the 300Mhz is memory speed
the 400Mhz is the GPU speed
kind regards

FX5900-TD128 memory problem

Hey there,
I've been having some trouble with (I presume) my graphics card. Basically I can play games just fine after my computer has just started up (or reset). But after a while of playing games or using 3d software in general I can't start a new game.
The games just refuse (start loading and then the window closes) to start or give me various error messages, so here are some:
GTA Vice City: Grand Theft Auto VC can not find enough available video memory
Ravenshield:
OS: Windows XP 5.1 (Build: 2600)
CPU: GenuineIntel Unknown processor @ 2555 MHz with 767MB RAM
Video: NVIDIA GeForce FX 5900 (5672)
Assertion failed: RenDev [File:.\WinViewport.cpp] [Line: 471]
History: UWindowsViewport::OpenWindow
Sim City 4 : Hardware Driver Error
Note that it is the games that give me the errors, not windows.
System specs:
Gigabyte P4 Titan 667
FX5900-TD128 (running nvidia's 56.72 drivers)
Pentium 4 2.53 Ghz
768MB of DDR RAM, 266Mhz
Audigy 2
I've tried to include as much info as I can, but if theres anything else you need to provide a solution I'd be more than happy to find out and tell you.
Thanks a bunch.

Alright, not sure how to find out the IRQs themselves, but I'll just list _everything_
Gigabyte P4 Titan 667
Pentium 4 2.53Ghz
Kingston 512MB DDR stick @ 266Mhz, Generic 256MB DDR stick @ 266Mhz
MSI FX5900 TD128
Omni 400W/12V PSU
60GB Generic HDD (ST360015A)
60GB Maxtor HDD (4D06H3)
LiteOn CD-RW 52x24x52 (Primary)
NEC DvD-RW (Slave)
Sony Floppy Drive
Audigy 2
Z-640 Speakers/Sennheiser PC-150 Headphones
Microsoft Media Keyboard & Mouse (PS/2)
Also, something that I probably should have mentioned is that I've had the graphics card for quite some time without encountering this problem. The only thing that I have changed recently is swapping the DvD-RW in for a (broken) DVD drive.
I dont see how this could affect the games (I've tried using the CD and the new DVD drive for the CDs) so I would imagine it may be a driver problem. I've gone through all the drivers I have and the most recent ones from both the nvidia and MSI site.
Thanks again,
Con

PSU sutiable for a MSI FX5900 Ultra 256MB?

Guys,
Is this PSU sutiable for a MSI FX5900 Ultra 256MB?
It's a 520W HiperPower PSU Quiet Triple Fan (Active Fan Control) Active PFC.
Sorry Wonkanoby and Deathstalker I just cant afford a Antec or Enermax at the moment, but this PSU does not look so bad?
Click this link to see PSU power details

You just have to dig a bit further into that link...(albeit for a 350)
From the numbers and the reviews, looks half decent. Only thing that catches the eye is the rather low max amps on the +3.3 in light of the overall TCO. (Should be a problem only if you have gobs of memory and things powered via the USB.)

Does MSI fx5900 "SP"-VTD 128 support temperature monitoring?

Hello everybody!!!
I really need someone's help here.I recently used the coolbits hack to overclock my card(MSI FX5900 SP-VTD 128).It runs fine after overclocking but the problem is that I can't monitor the cards temperature!!!
I used both the 3D Turbo Expirience and the registry hack to add those DWORD values that enable the thermal monitoring,but even after that I couldn't see the card's temperature!!!
Is there anyone who can give me a solution to this problem?I really don't want to damage my card by overheating it!!!

I have the same card as you the MSI FX5900SP 128VTD and it does have temp monitoring, i has used different drivers and my temp monitoring tab has always worked o.k, you may have damaged it already if you are excessivly O/C the card, i can only get mine to 465/812 before i start to see affects or lockups, so that may be the case, i am looking to flash my card though with a bios from a FX5900U to get the O/C that i want but i want to know if its been done first , i know you can do a FX5900U to a FX5950U so why not a FX5900SP(XT or SE) to a FX5900U?

Msi Fx5900 Sp-vtd128(ms-8929-060) Appearing As (ms-8937) At Msi Live Update 3.

Hi everyone!
I have recently purchased the Msi FX5900 SP-VTD 128 card."Model number MS-8929-060.
When I used the Live Update 3 program to check for updates for my videocard and motherboard,the programm identified my card as "MS-8937" and not "MS-8929"
After a quick and easy search I found out that the "MS-8937" model number is used to describe the MSI FX5900XT 128 and not the FX5900 SP-VTD 128 which is the card that I use.
Can anyone help me out here??!!Does anyone else have the same problem??

Bill K.,
Forget Live Update and download the latest nVidia ForWare Drivers. Then go to your Windows Directory and delete the file msicpl.dll and see what those drivers say your card is.
Take Care,
Richard

MSI FX5900 128mb or 256mb

Hi all
I have decided to buy a MSI FX5900 has anyone got the specs for the
MSI FX5900-TD128 and the
MSI FX5900-VTD128 I need to know memory / clock core speeds etc. Not the ultra to expensive for what I can afford
I have found some info on the forum.

FX5900-VTD128
VIVO, 400MHz core, 850MHz RAM
My question is how much difference will 128mb of memory compared to 256mb be using the FX5900. for games?
Thanks

Thanks. I've done my homework on just about everything. I know 2gb of ram will be in it. I'll be getting the 160GB drive because of the speed limitations of the larger disk.
Mostly, I'm having trouble finding any real numbers showing differences between 128 and 256 vid memory with motion. It's good to know it wont make much of a difference with FCE by itself.
Does anyone have a link to any benchmarks pitting the two 15" models? Specifically, with motion.
Also, kind of on a similar note, but not related to final cut, does having the 256mb version place a significant impact on battery life?
Thanks.

Thanks for any help!

The 256 MB version will allow you to load heavier 3D scenes in its memory with great performance, but the 128 MB version will have more bandwidth and it will generally be faster, although when the time come that a 128 MB video card will run out of memory, then the card will start to swap memory between its memory and AGP memory, thus it will be much slower that having a 256 MB version a bit slower.
Confused?
I´d go for the 256 MB version. although it has 2.8 Ns memory and you could reach just 714 MHz memory clock speed, but the other card will have less memory.
It´s just an opinion, but I would choose 256 MB version if I were you, and if I had the money

[Athlon64] Msi K8N Neo2 Platinum problems with Patriot Ram

First post, whoo hooo
So what version of BIOS are u running? I recently installed the two newest versions 2.0 and 2.1, and they both give me problems. With the latest (2.1) I'm getting the same error as you. Returning back to previous BIOS fixed my problems. Oh yeah, my RAM is Kingston Hyper-X, so i don't think thats your problem.
Let me know if you fix it, thats why im here, .

Power of the Press - MSI Neo4 SLI Bios Problem

For those interested, I just sent this to hardocp because they did the review on the MSI SLI Platinum. Since MSI headlines this review on their website, maybe hardocp can do something about this bios problem. Enjoy and please send more emails to hardocp so we can get this problem addressed! Believe me, Ive seen this works with washington politicians, I know it can work if we all do it.
I appreciate companies like yours doing extensive reviews about products. However, your review caused me and a whole bunch of others to purchase this board with enormous problems associated with it (check out the msi forums). The problem is that this board works only for 130nm chips in which you tested on. On the newer amd 90nm chips, this board is the worst performing sli board out in the marketplace (for both winni and venice core chips). You need to do something to stop people from buying this board because its just awful and the folks from MSI are silent on the subject.
It's gotten so bad that people have gone out and purchased other sli boards, transferred all of the equipment out of it and into the new one and guess what...voila, no problems. Anyway, some of those in the other user forums had the same problem but those other manufacturers quickly fixed the problem. Its just getting worse and worse. I feel like both msi (and I am MAD) and reviewers like you (unless you don't know about the problem) are silent on this and its cost me hard earned MONEY ($175 for the mobo) and hours and hours of time...
You have a LOT OF POWER with MSI and I can see it because they headline your review on their website (power of the press). For Gods sake, please do something before others make the same mistake or if you can get MSI to allocate resources to fix the problem...you would be HEROs! Thank you.

Ok, I guess I am confused some, where is the issue with the new cores? I have no issues running the San Diego core and the my memory at the listed and published speeds.....
Quote
Also is your MOBO the SLI type? I run the SLI Neo4 with a San Diego core without any issues. In fact I dropped it in and booted using the San Diego as a direct replacement for a older (if 6 months is old!!) 3500. I have OC'ed with Corecetner as far as I can push it and runs awesome!
Quote
GUys, I am not sure exactly what issues you are experiencing as there can be MANY factors! But my SLI Neo is running awesome! It overclocks (no Tiresmoke, i won't go into that in this forum ) and has NEVER once BSOD, or rebooted or even crashed! Not once and I push the crap out of this as it is my gaming box. Also TS you are SO correct on the clock settings on the ultras, you gotts make sure they are the same or it will cause issues. The only thing I am kinda bummed about is the lack of real performance with the dual 6800 Ultra's, but that is a Nvidia issue not MSI. Guys I may be blessed, but I have run three Neo MSI brds, 2 939 and 1 754 and never had any issues....
Quote
I have yet to experience any boot/reboot issues...So I think we should wait to hear more from this person before we assume anything...
Quote
I have the nForce4 SLI brd and i run a new San Diego..it booted up fine and zero problems. But man is this thing FAST
Quote
According to MSI, the Neo4 will work fine with the new cores, the Neo2 will need a bios upgrade
Quote
I set my brd up the first time for SLI with dual cards and have never had any issues..Sorry guys, but I guess it's the luck of the draw, but I have yet to ever ave an issue with any MSI brds..I have a Neo2,Neo4 and the older 754 slot Neo..no issues.
7 of your last 11 posts. Why man? Why?
This is from MSI at the "listed and published speeds"
Dear Customer,
Since the mb has not been certified to support the Venice and San Diego Core processors, please wait until beginning of June, 2005 for the release bios support for the mb.
Sincerely,

Look, I have already been threatened to be banned because of my sarcastic replies to you. Read every one of your responses I listed. Obviously OTHERS are having problems. WHY don't you help them instead of TAUNTING people that yours works. They are upset, and you make them feel dumb like it's their fault.
Man I have tried to contribute so much to this issue that at least 20 different members here are having, I have tested with an Asus SLI board, I have tried different BIOS's and posted results, I have theorized with others and I feel like you are slapping me in the face by restating time and time again "what problem mine works great"i
I'm on a verbal warning because I didn't have respect for you. Well how are you respecting the other people who have problems by saying you don't know what their issue is. Read up on it or help them, instead of creating tension. Please?

MSI 651 Combo / MS6769 Problem with Temperature

Hi. I´m having some troubles with my mb, since 2 weeks ago. Suddenly, it starts to appear that cpu temperature go 70 º C (158 º F), and i hadn´t do anything. I changed the cooler, and put some new grease, and nothing happen. Then i searched in this forum, and i found a message simmilar, that said something about upgrade bios, and thas what i recently do (WS6769 v1.0 originally, then V1.3, then V1.2). But nothing...
What should i do? buy another mb? I don´t want to.
Thanks.
Claudio

Well, i´m pretty sure that it is the mother board, because, i already changed all what´s possible to change: processor, RAM, hd, power supply, processor.
Din: I don´t know what´s "corecenter". I already upgraded BIOS (to v1.2 that supuestly fix my problem), and put thermal paste (grease? in spanish "pasta disipadora") between CPU cooler and CPU. And i do change the processor (i put a p4 1,8GHz), with other FAN processor (CPU cooler), and the same temperature.
Danny:Those details you ask me:
In a label on the power supply (lVoltage MAXAmpere): +5V 30A, +3.3V 20A, +12V 15A, -12V 0.8A, -5V 0.5A, +5Vsb 2.5A.
It is a Maxpower 300 Watts ATX, model PX300.
On BIOS PC Health: Sys Temp: 18ºC/66ºF, CPU Temp 66ºC/150ºF (up to 70ºC), CPU Fan speed 2909 RPM, Vcore 1.68V, 3.3V 3.26V, +5V 5.10V, +12V 12.03V, -12V -12.19V, VBAT(V) 3.26V, 5Vsb(V) 5.14V.
I have a Celeron 1,8 GHz, socket 478, a MSI 651 Combo MS6769 Motheboard, with nothing else. Hd Maxtor 30Gb, Rewriter MSI 52x24x52.
The problem: From one day to another, it wasn´t load XP. It resets itself after a few seconds (about 5 secs). On the BIOS PC Health section, i actived the CPU Temperature beep on "too much degrees" (i don´t remember the exact name, but that´s the idea). And that´s how i realize that the temperature is the problem. I think it is how the motherboard inform the temperature, and it is a nominal temperature, not real. If it´s real, i already had a burnt processor.
Anything else that can help to find a solution for me?
Very thanks.
Claudio

MSI FX5900 Ultra 256 MB and MSI 648 MAX

I have just installed my new FX5900 Ultra graphics card and when ever the card runs any 3D application for more than a couple of minutes, my PC will instantly shut down. The only way I can get it back up, is to remove my power cable from the PSU and wait about 20 seconds and then the PC will boot again.
I have checked the temperature of the card before and after the shutdown; and the latest Nvidia reference drivers show a GPU core temperature of 37 C. In addition, if I put my original GeForce 3 back into my computer, I experience no problems.
Looking on the internet, I have come across other people who have had a similar problem and this was resolved by changing the AGP slot to run at 4x rather than 8x. I have gone through the 648 Max BIOS and am unable to find anywhere where I can step down to 4x AGP.
Any Help Will Be Greatly Received.
Regards,
Macross

Thanks for your help guys. Whilst I have not been able to pick up my new powersupply, I have removed the Q-Tec 400W and put my old 300W PSU back, and guess what?? My PC has not shutdown since.
This power supply lark is totally new to me, and it does seem that a good quality 300W PSU can be better than a average 400W. I have never looked at the 3.3, +5 and +12 before, just the total wattage. Well, you do live and learn. Though it would have been nice if MSI put information like this in the manual of the card, or the WEB FAQ's.
I shall pick up my new 520W PSU on Saturday. Then I can put this new 5900 Ultra through its paces!!
Thanks
Macross.
