Msi geforce4 mx 460 locking up pc, help!

here is what i have:
asus cuv4x mb, 667 mhz intel celeron, 256 mb ram
msi geforce4 mx 460
diamond pci sound card
some isa 10/100 card
windows xp pro
this is a fresh install of win xp, i tried the drivers on the msi cd, also the newest reference drivers from nvidia.com, that didn't help. i tried removing the sound card but no luck there. it mainly locks in games like GTA3 or NHRA Dragracing. it runs for about 30 seconds and locks. ctrl alt del doesn't work so i have to power down. it locks in windows also, but not as often. i don't see anything conflicting in my device manager. does anyone have anything i can try? thanks in advance!

oops, i must be a moron. under the 3.3v and 5v it says 120w, then under all the voltages (3.3v, 5v, 12v, -5v, -12, -9) it says 250w. so just to verify, i need one that has 200w with the 3.3v and 5v? or is it ok now? sorry...

  • Built-In TV Tuner in MSI Geforce4 MX460-VTP ?

    I notice that MSI Geforce4 MX 460-VTP has TV-Encoder Philip 7108.  People also claim that after the installation of Capture driver, the Device Manager also shows these 4 devices in Sound, Video & Game Controller :
    - NVidia XP WDM Audio Capture
    - XP WDM Crossbar
    - XP WDM TVTuner
    - XP WDM Video Capture
    As I also have Leadtek WInfast TV2000-XP, it also installed these 4 devices.  Does it mean that the card already has a TV Tuner function on-board and I can get rid of the Leadtek TV200-XP card ?
    However, I remember correctly that the spec for this card doesn't mention anything about TVTuner function.
    Can anyone explain ?

    Hey there,
    I've got exactly the same setup.
    Using the MSI geforce 4 4600 and a Winfast XP/2000 TV Tuner
    Huge Problems...like I can't get the Winfast card to work.
    The system recognizes it and installs the Winfast version WDM drivers. Great right?!?!?! ,
    Well after installing the Winfast APP (newest version), I get no TV?!?!
    I can't remember exactly where the problems started.
    But at one point, my system worked perfectly.
    I think it may have something to do with either installing the WDM drivers on the MSI CD or Windows XP Pro.
    I've emailed Leadtek support and they couldn't find a solution. So they've asked me to RMA the card.
    Some other things to note.
    After removing the card and all instances of the drivers and app. I still get errors in my event viewer...all saying that the device is not present. No !!!
    If you know how to get rid of the errors...please enlighten me.
    Does your setup work?!?!?!

  • MSI GTX 460 Hawk hangs, need help

    Hello!
    Need help with my MSI GTX 460 Hawk.
    Sometimes it hangs and I need to restart my computer and sometimes screen goes black and then windows says that video driver wasn't responding and was recovered.
    Computer hangs more often in the 3D game, but in not 3D programms computer hangs too, but no so often.
    The temperature is ok, maximum is 70 deg. in 3D game. I even tried to set videocard cooller to 100% and it didn't help.
    I did no overclocking or anything like this.
    I use the latest videodriver from nvidia's website and the latest directx.
    Windows 7 64bit.
    Can you help me to solve this problem?

    If you are really in lack of parameters:
    Board: Gigabyte GA-EP45T-UD3LR
    VGA:  MSI GeForce GTX 460 Twin Frozr II
    PSU: Raidmax 500W (22A on 12v rail)
    Intel Core 2 Duo 8500 3.16GHz LGA 775
    OS: Windows 7 64bit
    The problem: Videocard began to hang:
    Sometimes it hangs and I need to restart my computer, sometimes I get BSOD and sometimes screen goes black and then windows says that video driver wasn't responding and was recovered.
    Computer hangs more often in the 3D game, but in not 3D programms computer hangs too, but no so often.
    What I've allready tried:
    1. Installed latest drivers from nvidia.com and latest directx.
    2. Checked temperature: maximum is 70 deg. in 3D game at 100% load. I even tried to set videocard cooller allways to 100% and it didn't help.
    3. Installed MSI Kombustor to burnin test videocard, but I can't catch any hangups with it.
    4. Checked windows system log. The last warning after driver recovery message is:
    Video driver nvlddmkm wasn't responding and was recovered.
    5. Two latest BSODs were caused by dxgkrnl.sys and nvlddmkm.sys drivers.
    6. Finally installed MSI LiveUpdate, it shows that no videodriver is installed and wants to download an old videodriver ver.  258.96.
    Need help to solve this problem.

  • Msi KT3 MoBo / MSI geForce4 TI 4200 Problem

    Hello, hopefully someone can help me.  I am having a rather unusual problem.  Least I think it is.  I have a MSI kt3 ultra2 motherboard, 512 meg ddr 2100 crucial ram.  AMD XP 2000+ CPU and an MSI Geforce4 TI4200 video card.  First of all, what agp settings should i use?  4x? 2x?.  Secondly, should i enable agp fast writes?  And last, what are the other 2 settings in the agp setup in the bios which are like 1/2 or 2/3?
    I also ran mad onions 3d mark 2001 SE and got a score of 4898!  This seems a little low to me.  Comparing online, I should be getting scores rannging from 9000 to 13000.  I have installed Nvidia Detonator drivers but they are the latest beta drivers.  Are these bad drivers?  None of my games ever freeze except for Soldier of Fortune 2.  It slows way down and when i ctrl+alt+del, it says i am using 100% cpu usage.  Can anyone help me?  I just want my system i bought a week ago to run at its full potential and have nowhere else to turn.  

    I am using Windows XP Pro.  I am running the 3d Mark 2001 SE with a 1024 resolution and no AA.  I am also using a 32bpp color depth.  The defaults when you load the program up for the first time basically.  I never did get a patch for SOF II although I should have.  Man do I fell like such a n00b.
    Hey Jamie B, you said i should "disable support for advanced cpu controls is NOT checked".  Where is that at?
    Thanks to all who have replied. :D   I appreciate it.

  • MSI GeForce4 Ti4200 128MB refresh problem

    Hi all!
    I have following WinXP refresh problem:
    When I set refresh rate to value bigger than 75Hz, system tells me that refresh rate was changed, but my monitor still shows me 75 Hz.
    My HW configuration:
    Athlon XP 2000+
    ABIT KD7 (VIA KT400 chipset)
    MSI GeForce4 Ti4200 128MB
    IBM DeskStar 45GB 7200 rpm
    17" AOC 7GLr
    I have tried various graphic card drivers (both drivers that were on CD supported by MSI and downloaded detonators from nVidia), for my monitor i have correct drivers from AOC. I was able to set refresh rate to 100Hz using PowerStrip 3.3. In SiSoft Sandra Professional i found warning, that i should use PnP/DDC compatible monitor or video adapter.
    Guys from AOC support told me, that problem is probably in my graphic card.
    Can you help me?
    Thanks in advance.  :(

    I experienced the same problem with a new msi 440mx VTD (8x). I tried the latest detonator drivers (41.07 and 41.09) and could not get more than 75Hz refresh in any resolution, though the configuration told me it was 85Hz. In Monitor Inf my Iiyama MT-9017T has the specs 96kHz and 55-160Hz, that used to give me 1024x768@100Hz with my old graphics adapter.
    my configuration:
    Athlon XP 1600+
    Epox KTA3pro (KT133a)

  • MSI GeForce4 TI4200 8X 128MB - PC Internal Speaker

    My HW :
    ASUS P4S8X (+512 DDRAM)
    INTEL P4 2400+
    MSI GeForce4 TI4200 8X 128MB
    My problem is that when playing :-) D3D games, the PC internal speaker makes BEEPS continously with irregular intervals.
    No problem with MS office applications .
    No problem with DVD .
    The motherboard BIOS is updated .
    The VGA driver is too ( version 4107 ) .
    I don't want to cut off the PC speaker .
    Can anyone help me to resolve this problem ?
    Thnxs in advance.

    +12V = 12,032  (status OK)
    +5V = 5,08 (status OK)
    +3.3V = 3,056 (status OK)
    When warning (beeps with regular interval = about 500ms), the sound comes from the external speakers and I can see the "alert" in the history .
    My problem is that these BEEPS comes from the internal speaker, and it sounds like this = 5 beeps in one second, two seconds nothing, 3 beeps in one second, long silence, then it starts again.
    This drives me grazy.
     

  • Very Low 3dMark2001 score w/ MSI GeForce4 MX440SE-T

    HELP!!
    My System:
    AMD Athlon xp 2000+
    ASUS A7V333
    256 DDR 333MHz Kingston RAM(Latency 2.5)
    (MS-8878)MSI Geforce4 MX440SE-T
    And With that system I am getting very low scores about 4070 at 3Dmark2001 SE! It seems to me impossible, it is near to my old Geforce 2MX.
    I think there is some problem with my configuration, but yet I couldn't find anything.I tried alot of things, checked all drivers they are all up to date.(Via 4in1 drives:latest hyperion thing,NVidia WHQL certf. 40.72. etc..)I enabled fast write, enhanced agp performance control from bios and eveything I know from display settings i.e. Antialiasing disabled, d3d tweaked and still the problem persists.
    I need someone who can help me under these hard and strange conditions.. ?(

    I have to agree with sqersch, I've run at 60 mhz and got way more than 60 fps, refresh rate doesn't have alot to do with card performance.  Sure you get a fps boost when you increase the refresh rate but nothing significant and it certainly doesn't "cap" the frame rate, it can just improve it slightly.  Besides about the only thing you would want to increase the refresh rate for is so that it would be easier on the eyes, (less flicker).  As for the guy complaining about his benchmark, what exactly do you expect to get with an mx version of a geforce 4?  I'm not saying that score isn't wrong, just wondering what score you hope to achieve with an mx card.
    Geforce system specs:
    Msi Kt3 Ultra 2-R with amd athlon xp 2200+ (overclocked to 1.98)

  • For some reason I cannot delete files off my desktop without putting my password in and even when I do I still can't delete and I also can't put files on my desktop at all ! but when I look at my desktop it gives me a silver lock? Please help me?

    when I go to find my desktop in Finder it shows a folder and a silver lock ? PLEASE HELP ME !

    If the light will not turn on the TC is dead. No matter that the hard disk is running.. it should only run at start up or when it is accessed not constantly.. that means the board in the TC has failed. Apple do not repair them.. They will replace it under warranty or applecare.
    If you have gone over the 12month warranty it will still be covered if you have applecare on any computer or an Apple TV. In fact the cost of the apple TV plus apple care is still cheaper than buying a new TC.. so it is a route some people are taking.. certainly depends.. in some places like Europe or Australia now, there is a recognition that statutory warranty must be longer on a product that is premium to the market. 12months is not good enough. Apple will sometimes listen.
    They might be fixable but I do not know how.

  • After upgrading to Mavericks my Mac Pro does not open my double CD drives when I hit eject in the menu bar it locks up (please Help)?

    After upgrading to Mavericks my Mac Pro does not open my double CD drives when I hit eject in the menu bar it locks up (please Help)?

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after  you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post any other kind of report — it will be very long and not helpful.

    My grandsons new Apple refurbed 35g ipad keeps locking up with a black screen amd nothing else. I have reset it many times pressing the home and off buttons together but it keeps locking up. Help,please!

    Thank you for trying to help. I followed your instructions, it took 6 hours to download, and then said it could not solve the problem (something to do with error 9?). It will have to go back to Apple - its only 3 days since it came out of the package and its very disappointing for him. Looks like I have to hang around in the Apple store in Plymouth all tomorrow until they can fix it, or will change it. Thanks for your help.

    <Edited By Host>

    Only the wireless carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock
    it. Contact them to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Apple does not unlock iPhones - wireless carrier has this responsibility.
