MSI GF4 Ti4200

Thanks for earlier replies (August); No joy. I have the latest MSI VGA drivers/VGA BIOS for this card eg. VGA driver: V4.13.01.3000, VGA BIOS: V4.25.00.29.00. My ASUS motherboard BIOS is set to AGP 4x, and VGA set to AGP (not PCI). On the MSI Information screen, I can't change from AGP 1X to AGP 4X. (or change any other options on that screen either). I have sent feedback emails to MSI - no response - am I being optimistic? Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
I'm running a PIII/866, memory 256Mb/133.

I had the same problem it's your VIA/Motherboard drivers but i have got MSI ultra ARU Motherboard which is VIA don't know about ASUS Motherboard.
I used the 4in1442v VIA drivers
Update them and you will have 4x ticked and you will have AGP traffic enable ticked, as in the MSI manual.
I also had a 2500 there about increase in 3dmark2001se it should around 9500+

MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTD8X tech question

Hi everyone, I hope u can help me with this:
I'm planning on buying a MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTD8X (Video In) from the United States which uses the NTSC system for Video, however where I live we use the PAL system for Video. So my question is will I be able to use the Video In feature of the card ?( ?? Do these cards work using both video systems or are there different video versions of the card?
Thanks in advance!

bondock,
It is my understanding that they will work with both systems. They do not make them market specific.
Take Care,
Richard

Last week I bought my video card. I didn't have problems until few days ago. Mouse movement in Win XP is choppy, not all the time. I played with sample rate but that didn't help.I tried my old gf2 mx400, and i didn"t have problems. I was reading threads and I realized that the problem may be in power supply. It's a bit old (about 2 years :-) ), iam not sure is it good if it is warm . This problem occurd just after the problem with HD (detection problems, messed HD name..), i checked IDE cable, it's good. 3d expirience is not shownig voltages and temepatures. Fuzzy logic 3 somtimes alerts that the temperature in chassis is 131C!! which is impossible. I sens lack of fps in games.
Please help!

640x480 and above, capture with MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTP

could anyone successfully perform this operation ?
The weird thing is that if I set a capture of something like 5 fps in VirtualDub and 640x480 (I tried with several codecs and thought that decreasing the fps would improve the bandwidth usage), it still doesn't want to capture anything -> 0 frames. The maximum I can get (15% frames lost) is 320x200 at 30 fps. I tried to capture directly to memory as it's supposed to be very fast, no luck.
Maybe my system is not monster enough, don't know.... ?( Or could that be the card which is limited for this ?

WDM 1.16 from MSI-CD. I tried with WDM 1.08 too.

your system is fine for this kind of job....
i have no problem in capturing full pal (768x...) in 30 fps (using included wincoder and mpeg1 or mpeg2 codecs) 60% cpu load on duron @1380
virtual bud will need somethong better then 1,3gh duron but i got no problems with 640x480 divx pro 5.02 25fps on my current sysetm (but the cpu load is high 75-90%) (0% frame lost)
some motion codecs (mjpg) will need both fast cpu and fast hdd....
uncompresed will produce so much data that even very fast hdd's will by to slow
but it is in fact weird 15% frame lost on 320x200 is much to high.. what board are u using?? are the latest 4in1 drivers instaled (very important for w2k) by shure that agpx4 and bus mastering are on... are u using any other extensin cards (tv tuner, off board sound, ide, lan??) if yes try removing them

Does exist the MSI GF4 TI4200 VTP8X?

Hello, I live in Spain and I go to adquire a MSI graphics card. I'll buy a GF4 TI4200 VTP 8X, but I think that model doesn't exist because in the oficcial page not appear, only appears the TD 8X and the VTD 8X models. But in http://www.alternate.net that model exist! What happen? Exist or not exist?
Thank you very much !!!
P.D. Sorry for my English, it isn't very well

I had the same problem with my MSI G4 Ti4200-VTD8X.
I did the same manual loading of the capture program. Didn't work. Look in control panel under your hardware and see if there is a yellow "!" next to the part that mentions "capture." Every time that was there the in didn't work.
I would uninstall and try it again.
Sometimes it would work for the day. I would even shut the computer off and when I would turn it back on, it would still work. Shut it off for the night and the next day it wouldn't work again! Go figure!!! Do a restore to the point where I shut the computer off for the night, and it still wouldn't work.
I believe it worked for good when I loaded the 4072 drivers. I did not install the manual program (I think - I did so many un/installs I can't be sure). Now the funny thing, those other little installs are not in my harware. But it works. I can't explain this.
Basically, uninstall the whole card driver , not just the capture. Reinstall the card driver without that other manual capture program. Just keep trying installing and uninstalling and checking out WinProducer to see if the capture option is there. If it still doesn't, try the manual capture program. Just keep trying different combinations.
Sorry that this isn't more of a step by step, but it worked for me. Hopefully MSI will put out another driver soon that will fix this once and for all.

MSI GF4 Ti4200 Video-in/capture on secondary monitor.???

Hi,
I have an MSI Ti4200-VTD8X (dual head, Video I/O). I am running it in dual monitor setup. When i try to view the video input on the secondary monitor i get the message:
"due to limitations of your computer's display device, this video can only play back on one of your monitors. please move the video window completely onto that monitor"
Does anyone know if this is a driver problem? or really it is a limitation with the card?. though i do not know why would the card be able to view the video capture window on one monitor but not the other?.
Thank you for any help you can provide.
L.
P.S.: system:
MSI T14200-VTD8X 128m
ASUS A7v8x Mobo
512M RAM
Win XP

Yes, I am using NVidia's nView as well as their WDM drivers. my dual monitor support seems to work fine.
Only if i want to see video input feed using something like win_DVR or Win_VCR or even Win_Producer that i get this message if the software/input winodow was on the secondary monitor.
Any help would be appriciated :D

All the Best... :D !!!

GF4 Ti4200 and Win98 - HELP ! serious problem with drivers !

Ok, I could successfully install the MSI GF4 Ti4200 128 in Windows 2000, no problem there, everything is working.
I then installed Win98 as a second OS, I launch the drivers setup (from MSI CD) and I reboot as wanted by the setup. The PC reboots, the Win98 screen appears and suddenly...it reboots by itself, no message, no black screen. I tried with other driver versions from NVidia and this time, I get a freezed black screen after the Win98 screen, I must press reset. I had to enter the safe-mode to remove the drivers and get the usual 640x480 in 16 colors.
What's going on ? I tried to change my bios parameters, disable the virus detection option, everything that could make problems ... but no success. I also tried a second Win98 installation, with DX 8.1 installed before the drivers but still the same problem.
My system is AMD XP 2100 with Asus A7V333 motherboard - 300W for power, is the problem caused by some VIA chips ? I tried with their 4-1 drivers and stuff on the CD but it really doesn't want to work.
Please help...

after searching a bit on the forum, I found a thread where someone pointed out a problem caused by memory, greets to him. I have 1 gb of ram and I added these lines to my system.ini :
[vcache]
MinFileCache=65536
MaxFileCache=131072
ChunkSize=2048
NameCache=4096
DirectoryCache=96
ConservativeSwapFileUsage=1
Values may change with more/less memory...And now it works perfectly in Win98.

Overclocking MSI GF4 ti4200td 4xagp

I was wondering if anyone knows what are reasonable overclocks for the msi gf4 ti4200 td 4x agp card. Today I adjusted the core to 300 and used the auto adjust feature for the memory and got it up to 567. Things are running stable but I was wondering if this is too high or if there are any limits I should not pass? Can it go higher? I only have the default heatsink and fan for the GPU and no heatsinks on the ram. Should I worry about temps?

If you aren't getting artifacts on your screen then I think it should be fine. Run a few more games and watch for colorful pixels. If you get them then clock down a bit.
Have Fun, don't blow your card

Rob

Help with GF4 TI4200

Everytime I start window xp the message vbios.dll failed messages appear, and If i go into display and select those 2 additional MSI options it get an error and the thing closes... any solution to this?
My cpu is
P4 2.53
Asus P4S8X
Samsung 512 DDR
MSI GF4 TI4200 128mb 8x AGP

FFSabin,
Use notepad to make a new file and put in it what I quoted below and then save it with the .reg extension.
Quote
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARENVIDIA CorporationGlobalNVTweak]
"Coolbits"=dword:ffffffff
"NvCplEnableAGPSettingsPage"=dword:00000001
"NvCplEnableAdditionalInfoPage"=dword:00000001
"NvCplEnableClearViewPage"=dword:00000001
That will open all the extra options in the Detonator4 Drivers including the Core and RAM Speeds for your GF4.

GF4 Ti4200-VTD8X(8894) and Live update 2.0

Hello all
Recendly i bought this graphic card (i mention on the subject). It's much faster than the Asus GF2 Ti i had before and all are working properly except of the updating program called Live update 2.0. I installed it and when i got connected to the server it announced me that the version running on the server is newer than mine and it gave me the option to update it as i did. When i reconnected to the server and asked for updates about my card's bios or driver it gives me the message that my graphic card isn't from MSI. The utility option works fine but as you can understand isn't the important one. As i was ecpecting the same results i got from the live monitor too.
So i would like to ask the moderators of this forum or anyone who could know:
1) Is my graphic card [MSI GF4Ti 4200 VTD8X (8894) 128 MB] combatible with the Live update utility 2.0 or not? The 3D turbo experience utility works fine on my pc.
2)If i update the VGA bios and driver of my graphic card manualy (without the live update utility) from the MSI web site will i still have the tabs "MSI information" and "MSI clock" on my display properties?
Thanks in advance
Morte

I recently built a system (specs below) and installed this card (MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTD8X MS8894, 128MB DDR), and when I try to use Live Update 2 (version 3.33.000, from the CD that came with the card), I get the same message:
"Warning!!! Your Display Card does not support MSI Live Update 2 function. Note: MSI Live Update 2 supports the Display Cards of MSI only."
I'm using the drivers/BIOS that came on the CD: Driver version 6.13.10.4107, BIOS version 4.28.20.05.11. I see on the nVidia site that they have the 4109 drivers out now, should I try those? ?(
I have also made sure to do the suggested modifications to IE (and I don't have PC-cillin installed):
"Note: In order to operate this application properly, please note the following suggests.
-Set the IE security setting 'Download signed ActiveX controls' to [Enable] or [Prompt]. (System default is [Prompt]).
-Disable 'WebTrap' of PC-cillin(R) or any web based anti-virus application when executing MSITM Live Update 2TM.
-Update Microsoft® Windows® Installer"
I downloaded a newer version of LIveUpdate (3.35.000), and installed it (after completely uninstalling the old version), and got the same results. Nothing on my system is currently overclocked.
Help!
