MSI GF4Ti4200 128Mb no DVD

I just bought a GF4Ti4200 128Mb and I just cannot get no DVD application working!
The MSI WinDVD did not work, the WinDVD that came along with the DVD drive did not work, MGI Soft DVD Max did not work, CyberLink PowerDVD did not work, Windows Media Player did not work...
I was also installing Windows XP Home Edition, I just re-formatted hard drive, new installation, and same problem.
This is my PC:
Motherboard MSI 845PE Max2-FIR
P4 2.53 MHz
1024 Mb DDR 333 MHz
Maxtor 120 Gb ATA133
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum
MSI GeForce4 Ti4200 128 Mb ViVo graphics card
Ricoh DVD+R/+RW drive
Windows XP Home Edition
Does anybody know how can I get to see a DVD with this graphics card, or should I bring my Matrox G550 32 Mb back???...

Finally discovered my problem--I had the NVIDIA Desktop Manager loaded on my system and it was set to my previous video card and apparently overroad BIOS and everything else.  It did show this card as an option, I chose it, plugged my monitor into the MSI card and instantaneously now had correct video.  Suggest if anyone has the ASUS MOBO with NVIDIA chipset to check their control panel to see if NVIDIA Desktop Mgr is on their system and if so, check the settings.
Thanks for support

  • [VIA] MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU and a MSI FX5900XT 128MB DDR Video Card

    Does any body out there know if a MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU and a MSI FX5900XT 128MB DDR Video Card will work well together?

      like the grayone say, is true. for more ensure, try and search the graphic cards support list for your board at MSI (Sorry cause i don,t no is  where the site located)
      in my opinion, most is compability for your card, when is a AGP slot.
      Except the new one like the AGP slot, call AGR( Accelaration Graphic Riser slot) that really need to find a compatibility graphic cards.....

  • MSI Drivers and Utilities DVD won't work

    Hello, I've just purchased the parts to construct an entirely new computer, and I've chosen MSI Z77A-G41 motherboard.  I put everything together, and I loaded Win XP on, and my plan is to upgrade to Win 8 during their special offer.  I needed to go into Setup and change the SATA mode from AHCI to IDE, so that I could install XP. Once I had XP up and running, I inserted the MSI Drivers and Utilities DVD to load all of the drivers.  However, when I put the disc in, it auto-runs, the driver/utility screen is shown 'blacked out' and I immediately receive a Windows error message: "DVD Setup Application" error.  I went in through Windows Explorer to the programs on the DVD, and found DVD setup. By trying to run this from within Explorer, it takes me to the same error as when I auto-run.
    The only thing I can think of is that I need to change something else in Setup, to run Win XP because it's so old?  I'm pretty sure that there's nothing wrong with the new DVD burner, because I've used it to install XP, and also to extract and install Service Pack 2 and 3 (which I downloaded on another computer and transferred on a CD).  If I knew exactly what needed to be installed from the MSI DVD, I could try doing it from within Windows Explorer.  But, I'd still like to figure out what the Setup Application error message is telling me.
    Any helpful suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    A further note before I head off to bed.  I was able to install Win XP service packs 2 and 3 using my new burner, and I've activated with Microsoft and downloaded and installed 117 updates. I have now used this same DVD burner that won't recognize or work with the MSI driver/utilities DVD, to install all of the drivers for my video card---that DVD auto-ran just fine.  So, after doing some searches on Google about the "DVD Setup Application" error, not a lot of help but most people say that if another DVD will spin up and load things OK---it must be the fault of the DVD that won't load.  In other words, I don't think that there's a problem with anything in the Setup on the motherboard.
    So, if anyone has any further ideas, please let me know.  Otherwise, I'm going to contact MSI tomorrow and see about a replacement DVD. Thanks.

  • MEGA 865 Deluxe with MSI DR8-A 8x8 DVD±R/±RW Writer

    Hi everyone,
    I am just about to put this box together, please advice..
    Heard any compatibility issue on this one? IE, ejecting problems or loosing functionality in PC or HIFI mode? or any issues at all....
    MEGA 865 Deluxe with MSI DR8-A 8x8 DVD±R/±RW Writer
    It will be a bummer if I go put this together and it doesnt work properly. That will be money down the tube.
    Thanx.

    I have the same box and optical device. I have yet to get an audio CD to play completely through in HiFi mode. It will play for 3 to five minutes and then quits, LCD reads No Disk. I can get it to start up again with no problems but it only plays a few minutes at a time.  It works fine in PC mode both in playing Audio CD's and DVDs so I am guessing that my problem lies in Hi Fi circuitry/or wires. I believe you should be able to use the 865 in Hi Fi mode without O/S, Memory, or even a CPU. Good luck.

  • MSI FX5500 128Mb 100%CPU usage problem

    Hi,
    i have a LANPARTY UT nF3 250Gb mobo and a Atlhon 64 1800+ 512ddr and a MSI FX5500 128Mb with Windows XP SP2, and i'm having too much cpu usage(between 70/100%)..the strange part of this is that i'm having this huge cpu usage when system is at desktop without anything runing (programs..games..).. and no.. its no virus/adware/spyware.. because i've format my system and only install windows and mobo drivers(nf3 drivers) and ofcourse nvidia Display drivers nothing else..
    if anyone could help me i appreciate because this slows down my computer a little bit.. :S

    its weird..because in task manager in processes separator, there is no process using too much cpu, but in performance separator it shows CPU between 70/100% of usage.. i will try to post a screenshot soon as i can to show to you..
    btw.. could this be solved or its my graphic card damaged?

  • MSI 6800 128mb - stutter every 20 secs or so

    Hi,
    I have recently bought the MSI 6800 128mb card. Ther card runs well except for one thing. Every so often there will be a freeze/stutter in gameplay for a split second.
    I cannot seem to resolve this issue. The game play is smooth and graphics are fantastic except for this odd stutter.
    I have been looking into this and have read many suggestions on how to fix it.
    Here is what I have tried:
    Latest drivers (61.77)
    Dropping hardware acceleration in Windows by one or two notches (tried both)
    Changing the Blitting settings using RivaTuner
    Upping the 2d Clock
    Underclocking and overclocking both 2d and 3d clocks
    Disabling/Enabling fastwrites
    Adding more RAM
    I was going to flash the bios with that from the nVidia website but it appears to be the same version so I figure this would be pointless.
    It was also suggested that the problem may be that there is not enough power to the card, but I have a 500w power supply and its on its own rail with nothing else connected to it.
    If anyone has any advice or answers please let me know
    Thanks
    Jonathan
    P.S.
    My system basics are:
    AMD Athlon 2800+ oc'd to 3200+

    WD Caviar 80gb Hdd 8mb Cache
    PcChips M848A 400FSB AGPx8 ATA133 etc MoBo

    Hello there
    I have exactly the same problem!   Msi bios sucks!
    so u should consider flashing a new bios into your card
    Get the right bios here:

    Hi Zeon, yeah the bios revision, and programs to flash it are on this site.
    http://www.mvktech.net/download.php?list.27
    and Dr Dos from this site.
    http://www.bootdisk.com
    To do this you need to create a boot disk.......Heres what i did.
    1. Create Boot disk using DR Dos
    2. Copy the bios revision and the Nvflash program onto the same floppy disk.
    3. Backup original bios by typing A:\ nvflash -b backup.rom, then press ENTER.
    4. To Flash the bios....type A:\nvflash -5 -6 Biosfilename.rom, the press ENTER.
    Very easy and simple to do.
    I remind anyone who will try this that its at your own risk.
    i havent tried this yet because i need a damn Floopy Disk but i think that's the only way to fix these problems.  
    Stay cool and thanks to all those who made these guides for us  :P

  • MSI X79 GD65 8d DVD problem

    For some reason the DVD drive does not work with the MSI, but it works with my other computers. The DVD drive is detected by Windows 7, but it will not read any DVD/CD.

    What SATA port are you using the ODD in? SATA II or SATA III? Native Intel or external? Are the SATA controllers all enabled in the UEFI/BIOS?

  • How to make MSI D16 (MS8216S) read DVD+RW disks

    Greetings
    I have MSI D16 drive, for the last 6 months. When I found out that it cant read the DVD+RW disks, I replaced it with the NEC Drive.
    Since MSI havent released nothing since 2003. Why was this drive in strores in 2004?
    Is there some beta firmware for this drive, so that it can read DVD+RW disks?
    Best regards

    I think your question is mainly directed on MSI with regards to the release of BIOSes. This is a mainly user to user forum help so here's how you can contact MSI.
    Good Luck .

  • MSI FX5200 128MB Personal Cinema problems

    Greetings from Sweden. I had problems with a jerky video picture. That problem was solved for the most part by adjusting the horozontal and vertical video motion values. I should add that when I turned off the sound card completely in the BIOS, the video picture was as smooth as the original VHS tape.
    I still get jerks in the sound during playbacks, rather like a a CD player that hit a bump in the road. They are always in the same spots, so they came during the recording.
    I tried a more advanced sound card than the one that came with my MSI motherboard, but that made no difference. Could it be in the buffering?
    Anyone have any ideas.

    i am getting same problem but i only get this problem when i have tv out enabled  this is happenning in other programmes as well like nvdvd and power dvd . powere dvd is not recognissing graphics card in tv out mode when hardware accelaration is activated. i have tried all possible setting s and will not sort problem out. in standered 1 monier mode everything is fine no stuttering or picture problems. i think it is driver issue. :O

  • 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 SP-VTD128
    VIVO, 400MHz core, 700MHz RAM
    The MSI FX5900-TD 128mb
    Product Specifications
    Graphics Core: 256-bit
    Memory Interface: 256-bit
    Memory Bandwidth: 27.2GB/sec.
    Fill Rate: 3.6 billion texels/sec.
    Vertices per Second: 338 million
    Memory Data Rate: 850MHz
    Pixels per Clock (peak): 8
    Textures per Pixel: 16
    RAMDACs: 400MHz
    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.

    Burned in wrong type? As there is DVD+RW and DVD-RW, if the drive can't handle both types, it can't read it.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD
    Also you have Blueray, double layer etc....
    I think you burn in a format the drive doesn't understand, or the drive is broken.
    Beware, CD and DVD have different lasers inside the drive, so while it can read CD, DVD may fail in total.
    I doubt firmware is the problem, as the drive isn't that old.
    The Optical Drive can handle the two types and more, the weird thing is it reads cd and dvd original, when i put cd or dvd generic its doesnt read and appear empty.. What is the problem please help me obtain a firmware please.
    Optical Drive: HL-DT-ST BDDVDRW CT21N

  • MSI 6380 Problem with DVD burner

    Hello
    I have a prob with my new DVD burner. Maybe someone of oyu has any idea what could be the prob.
    I have an Athlon XP 2400 (T-Bred) on my board (MSI Kt7 266, MSI 6380 v2). I have done the C37 mod and removed the cap. Everything worked fine. Processor correctly recognized etc.
    First my old DVD burner and my old DVD-ROM stopped working (means they didn't react to any commands anymore, I pres sejecct and nothing happens...) and after thorough testing (different combinations with correct jumper setting master/slave/CS..., new cable...) I thought they're broken and got a new DVD burner. But after installing this one - sampe problem.
    This is the problem in deatils: The bios does recognize the burner in autodetection in the bios or with the setting "auto". Then it says "DVD" for the respective IDE channel and during bootpu it shows the correct name of theburner (LG GSA-4163). But the drive does not react on commands. If I press eject the lamp on the drive starts blinking but nothing happens, the tray does not open. It blinks a few times then blinks a few times very fast but nothing happens. The drive is listed in the explorer in WIN but I cannot access it. Also, the device manager shows no problem. All my HDD's work fine even on the same IDE channel.
    Does anyone encounter a similiar rpoblem or have any idea how to solve this?
    Thanks.

    I got another psu, more powerful then my old one. Same problem though. Can it be that this is the third optical drive in a row that fails?
    Strange is that with the new psu (3,3-28A, 5V-35A, 12V-26A, 410W combined, ANTEC Truepower) my hardware monitor shows that for all the power the values are lower compared to my old psu. It shows 3,26 V 4,9V and 11,7V repsectively. With the other psu all values were higher. Is that an error or does this new psu suck?

  • MSI 965 Platinum slow dvd drive access - is it a Jmicron issue

    I am having a bit  a problem. I just built this system and installed windows xp sp2 without a single hitch. However while I was installing various drivers and such for the components I noticed that the DVD ROM was slow to respond. The hard drive is under SATA #1 and the DVD ROM is in the only ide port on the board. When I installed windows and the subsequent MSI drivers disk I did not tell it to install any jmicron drivers what so ever. I was wondering what is the proper set up for this configuration ie. bios setting and should I install any of the jmicron drivers and which jmicron drivers to install. I do not care about having any RAID functionality.
    Thanks

    Let me clarify this situation a little more. Like I said earlier I just build this system and did not have any problems installing windows xp. I do not recall exactly which bios setting I changed so my IDE DVD-RW drive was recognized but the setting had something to do with raid/ide/disable. I think. Anyhow, upon boot up it recognized my IDE DVD-RW drive and correctly booted the windows xp sp2 cd. I went through the setup menu for xp and created one large partition. It recognized my SATA drive as being 230 or 240 GB when in actuality it is a 250. No problem with me. I formated the HD. It took about an hour to format the whole drive. Next, it loaded windows xp which took about 15 minutes or so. When the OS started I used the included MSI disk to load the network, intel and sound drivers. I did not choose to load the jmicron driver because of the horror stories I have read. After I loaded the MSI drivers I installed my video card driver and monitor driver/software. It was when it started to install the video card driver that I noticed the drive acting a little weird. By weird I mean slow access and it was giving me an when it would try to "autoplay" the EVGA driver disk. Anyhow, eventually it started and I was able to install the video card drivers. After everything loaded I decided to load a few CD's. Mostly data and music CDs. On some of the data cd's the access times seemed slow. Like 10 - 15 seconds for xp to negotiate with the DVD drive. So, I thought there must be a connection with not installing the Jmicron drivers. However, my system is incredibly stable. It has not had one hiccup. I even installed NWN2 and played it for several hours without any issues. Since this is my first SATA drive I do not know what the devise manager is supposed to look like. Nor did I really know what to exaclty set the bios at the get the best performance and stability from the system. When I look in the device manager under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers there are several items listed in this order
    Intel(R) ICH8 2 port Serial ATA Controller - 2825
    Intel(R) ICH8 2 port Serial ATA Controller - 2820
    Primary IDE Channel
    Primary IDE Channel
    Primary IDE Channel
    Secondary IDE Channel
    Secondary IDE Channel
    Secondary IDE Channel
    Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller
    My questions/concerns are as follows.
    What are the proper settings in the bios for a SATA HD connected to one of the six SATA port (not JMicron) and a IDE DVD-RW connected to the IDE Jmicron port?
    Do you have to install the Jmicron drivers for the IDE port and if so will it compromise the stability of the system?
    Which Jmicron driver do I install? ( I don't know if there is more than one just asking incase there are different ones)
    Is this the way the device manage is supposed to look? (see above)
