MSI N260GTX Problem with driver or...?

I installed a MSI N260GTX today on an Asus PQ5 P45 mobo. After installing the drivers from the CD provided with the graphic card, my Windows XP went into 4-bit colors. I tried various of other drivers, but the same problem occured.
I am going to try the grap.card. on another system tomorrow, but can you tell if the problem is with a busted G.card, busted mobo or some other issue?

Boot in "Safe Mode" then use Driver Sweeper { http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1655 } to remove current drivers.
Then reboot to normal mode and install latest drivers, depend of your OS version:

  • MSI FX5600XT problems with agp 4x and other stuff

    Well
    I just bought myself a MSI FX5600XT-TD128
    I had a Hercules (guillemot) GEFORCE2 PRO (clock higher than GTS and slower than Ultra).
    I'm not sure if my previous videocard (the gf2pro) would run stable @ 4x or run @ 4x at all.. I know my motherboard is capable of agp 4x, the old videocard I am not sure it was..
    WEll, I bought the msi, plugged in and no post.
    so I take the card out, put it back in, posted... 5mins later, crash..
    No post..
    So I put the old videocard in (gf2pro) and disable agp4x in the bios, plug the msi back in and running so far stable...
    My motherboard is an IWILL KK266 (via kt133a).. very nice motherboard running on a not-so-compatible-with-it athlon xp 1600+ (1.4ghz)
    The mobo problems with the cpu (processor) are limited to having to press 'reset' switch to boot (or else pc will power up but no boot).
    Well my question is, is the agp 4x problem related to this msi video card in general, or to a faulty video card I *might* have (so I can exchange this one) or is it related to the motherboard???
    Also, can someone explain to me the diferences between FX5600, FX5600XT AND FX5600 ULTRA?
    Also, explain to me please the 'V,T,D,R' models differences too?
    And Last but not least, what is the best driver for the fx5600xt and winxp??
    I'm running msi latest (53.03, I installed it just to test em), I had nvidia's 52.16 prior to that.
    Thanks for all ur help

    This can also be from a weak PSU, which would be even further taxed by adding the power hungry FX card.
    Might need a stronger PSU.

  • Geforce have problem with driver

    Sorry i cant find any related to Geforce 3 Ti200, so i use Geforce 4 ti as it topic fronties. Currently i am using Geforce Ti200, after i install ur website driver Nvidia VGA Driver 45.32 for Win2000/XP/Server2003, it just very often keep my pc hang at the time, if i no use this driver, i cant play certain game, do u mind tell me what to do? Why this driver caused a lot of problem to my pc? Is it somekind of bug, can u release new driver to fix it?

    No MSI employees work in this forum, this is a user to user help forum only.
    As far as the drivers for the Ti-200, there were users reporting problems with later drivers in this forum. If you do a search of the VGA forum, I'm sure you'll find the threads related to this issue.
    I suggest going here http://ftp://download1.nvidia.com/Windows/ and try that version instead of MSI drivers. You may not be successful however. I suggest using "Driver Cleaner" found here http://www.driverheaven.net follow the directions supplied with the download and found on the website.
    If you are not successfull, then you may have to upgrade your video card.

  • MSI N260GTX problems

    Hi
    Specs:
    Mobo Asus Striker 2 formula
    CPU Q6600
    RAM OCZ ReaperX 4GB
    2x WD 320 GB HD
    1x WD 1 TB
    Corsair 550W pwrsply
    Graphc.card MSI N260GTX (with the free tomb raider game, booh :p)

    If you need more specs let me know
    I just bought 2 new graphic cards: MSI N260GTX
    I pulled my old card out and the new one's in. Connected 2x pcie power cables and an SLI bridge (or whatever its called)...
    Now i turned on my pc and nothing really happens, just a blank monitor
    So i tried all the different options, 1 card, 2 cards on the different PCIe slots with the 2 different     uh... DVI/VGA things :p (on the back of your card for your screen)     
    But all i got over and over is a blank screen.
    Even after trying 1 Ram card instead of 2
    The LCD poster of my Mobo says Errormsg after 15 secs after startup so it really doesnt do anything :S duh ..
    Are they both dead ??
    So i thought i put my old graphics card in (ATI radeon HD 3870) and that one works just fine, so my mobo is fine i think
    Does anyone know what i can do, or do or did anyone have the same problems????
    Mus
    srry for my bad english...

     1 - Recommended PSU for a system with 260GTX SLI is +12V~50A, your Corsair +12~41A. Recommend you get TX650W +12V~52A as minimum PSU, better would be TX750W +12V~60A or PC P & C Silencer 750W +12V~60A.
     2 - Is that 2 PCIe 6 pin power for each card or just 1 on each card?
     3 - Did you follow instructions Asus to enable SLI?

    I speak of Brazil, I have a smarthfone BlackBerry 8100 and a Dell Inspiron 1525 notebook with Windows Vista 32-bit, Service Pack 1.

  • MBP 2011 can't find harddrive (not problem with drive or cable)

    My early 2011 MBP 13" was running fine, then froze up. On restart I got the image of the folder with a question mark on it (the Mystery Folder) - the system couldn't find a drive to boot from.
    I took it to a genius bar and the, ahem, "genius" said the system couldn't find the drive because of a problem with the drive. "The drive's dead" he said. I hadn't backed it up, and was freaking out that I'd lose all my data. The only option he said Apple could do would be to take it away (for a week) and put a new hard drive in for £80. They'd take the old drive out, and I wouldn't get it back to try and recover the data.
    I asked about replacing the drive myself, as I've done that on PCs, and he said I could try it.
    I bought a new hard drive, and an external enclosure. I put the new hard drive in the MBP - Mystery Folder. I put the old drive in the external enclosure - it starts up! Everything still there, exactly as I left it when it froze. I clone the old hard drive onto the new one, try booting from the new drive in the MBP. Mystery Folder. I connect the new drive with an external enclosure - it starts up! And everything running fine.
    It's the cable, I hear you cry. So I ordered a new internal cable. Replaced it. Started it up. Mystery Folder.
    So, it's not the hard drive, it's not the cable. What is it?!

    Hi Ogelthorpe.
    That's right - I now have 2 hard drives, clones of each other.
    Both will boot when in an enclosure and connected with a USB.
    Neither will boot when inside the MBP.
    So it's not the drives that are the problem. Therefore it's an internal cable problem?
    I replaced the cable.
    Neither drive works when connected internally with the new cable.
    What else could it be that means the system can't see the hard drive when connected internally?

  • Extreme Music - Problems with Driver and Installation

    Hi guys,
    ?After the my computer has given up it's life on the last friday, I bought a new one and wanted yesterday to install everything like OS, driver and so on.
    I started the install of the driver(which is the version from the creative website , released in july 2009) for my soundcard, the X-FI Extreme Music and when the information was given, that the Windows drivers will be updated and it will take some minutes, something happend:
    At my first try a bluescreen appered. You can imagine, that I was shocked to see a bluescreen on my new pc after an hour.
    I run CCleaner to remove some rests of the "maybe installed" driver and started it again. There was no bluescreen, but the mouse freezes and the setup does nothing anymore. I can close it with may keyboard, but the driver wasn't installed.
    After a new clean up with CCleaner I tried it again. I put out my cable of the mouse , so maybe this was the problem(ofc, WHY is there a problem with USB and PCI Cards ?). The installations works, no hang up or freezes. After a restart nothing happend. No sound. I looked at the hardware manager(do not know, whether it is the correct word, I'm german and have a german windows ) of windows and at audio, video and gamecontroller, there is a warning of not working driver.
    I remember, that on my old system the driver was titled something like
    X-FI Audio[800] or something like that.
    But here it was named with?
    X-FI Processor WDM
    I thing the system is installing the wrong driver.
    I looked at some forums , find the hint to change the PCI slot. I did it, but nothing changed.
    So, here are some information of my system configuration, maybe someone can help.
    Old system(where the soundcard works fine with no problems):
    - Athlon X2 4200+(socket was the "old" 939)
    - Asus A8N-E
    - DDR 400 RAM, 2GB
    - Windows XP Professional(32 Bit) with SP3
    New System:
    - Phenom II X4 80(quadcore)
    - Gigabyte MA790XT-UD4P
    - DDR3 333 RAM , 4GB
    - same OS as used in the old configuration
    Ofc all chipdriver were installed and seems to work fine.
    The onboard soundchip is disabled too.
    Hope for help ^^

  • MOVED: MSI CX623 - Problem with RAM and setting the primary board

    This topic has been moved to MSI Notebooks & Netbooks.
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=167930.0

    You should try a different mem slot. Say for example 0 and 2. There have been issues with DDR slots and all different types of mobos. Like I have a Shuttle Ak31v3 mobo with 2x256DDR2100 Kingston and the chips will only work on slots 2-4 and 1-3. It will not boot if I tried any other combination. It's a pain in the ass but thats just how it is. I had this same problem with a Asus A7V266.
    I don't however have that problem on my Kt3 ultra 2 R mobo.

  • MSI Z87m problems with Realtek install

    I cannot install Realtek drivers with this motherboard. Brand-new system with Windows 7. Intel I5 CPU, gigabyte gtx 780, 8 GB ram. All drivers updated, win 7 updated.
    I have tried the drivers from the included disc and also direct from Realtek site. They will install but they will not work. Red Cross shows up on the volume icon anytime I try to open audio.
    I have even tried reinstalling the OS twice. Makes no difference.
    I tried installing the Realtek drivers from SafeBoot. I just get an error message.
    Creative Sound Blaster cinema will also not work because the RealTek drivers don't work.
    I have read a few other posts of people having this exact same problem with this motherboard and Realtek drivers.
    The windows HD audio will work.
    Right clicking on Realtek properties in device manager shows everything is working fine, even though it isn't.
    I have also had problems when booting into the bios. If I try to change anything, like a fan setting, and then try to save and exit, the system freezes. I had to CMOS once already. Pc also freezes in the bios when trying to access the hardware Monitor option, requiring a reboot. The other options work fine.
    I've written to MSI about this problem but I was hoping somebody might have an idea of what I could try before I take the system back to the store for them to check it and replace the motherboard, as I will then be without the PC for a week.

    What xmad is trying to get as information is the 'complete' name of the mainboard. Z87m is not good enough. Also, more information about the other systems components including specifics of the RAM, brand, rated speed, and the PSU brand and description. For now, test with just a single RAM stick.

  • Problem with Drive Encryption for HP ProtectTools - Error EE050014

    Hello!
    I have a problem with starting up my HP.
    I am using a HP Probook 4530s, have had it for approximately 2 years now - this is a new problem that has never occured before.
    On startup, after swiping my finger/entering the password at the HP Protecttools screen, I get an error screen titled "Mcafee endpoint encryption" saying "Error 050014 file access error". As far as I'm concerned this is not a Mcafee product although it mentions Mcafee, and I will not receive any help from their support forums. All I can do is press enter, then the cursor is locked in place and nothing but restarting the computer can be done, and then the process repeats. 
    Before this error occured, I was going through files with an anti-malware program and it is possible I may have deleted something that might have triggered this, however since I cannot access the desktop or anything it is impossible for me to look into that.
    I have been desperately looking for a solution for a while now but have come up with nothing solid. Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Regards!

    Hello matroid,
    Your ProBook is a Business model.  Your issue would be best answered on the HP Enterprise Business Community Forum

  • MSI 180 - Problems with Media center III

    Hey,
    I have a problem with the Media Center III. When I want to watch TV I have to make a automatic scan in both Cable and Antenna. It seems that nearly all of my channels are found under the Antenna scan (strange I have Cable).
    Well my problem is that eventhough I set the TV source to Antenna every time the Media center III software have been shut down I have to go into TV -> settings -> change the TV source from Antenna to Cable and back to Antenna to get the channels.
    Anyone had the same problem.
    Please help, how do I get the software to remember the settings......
    best regards
