MSI NX6600 Diamond VGA

Hi, I have NX6600 Diamond TD 128E VGA that I just bought. This GVA has vivo
future. In ?ts box ?t comes with Svideo cables and in and out cables. My
question is whatever I did, I couldn't bring the wiew of PS2 game consoule
on the screen that I connected. I couldn't find any writing or answer about
how I can do it. I didn't use any programe, maybe should I need to use a
programe?
Only not on PS2, either couldn't get any wiew on my video camera.
Please help me with this subject.

I) T--TV out, it means it can video out to TV, as dual monitors, and you need to enable "Clone mode" in display properies-->settings-->Advanced-->NX6600-->nView tab.
II) V--Video-In, it means you can capture video or pictures from the video devices. You need to install capture driver and capture software from the CDs coming with the card.
Exactly...

IRQ problems with 865PE Neo2V and MSI NX6600-VTD256 VGA

Hi All,
I thought I would try a posting here first for help before filling out the cumbersome service request form. I recently purchased the 865PE Neo2V motherboard with an intel 3.2Ghz processor, 1 Twinmos 1024MB DDr400 memory, 2 Maxtor Diamond 250GB S-ATA HDD's and the MSI NX6600 VTD 256 AGP VGA card. I am also running a Plextor 716a dvd burner and a Toshiba DVD Rom on the secondary IDE slot nothing on the primary for 2 S-ATA drives and 2 P-ATA for a total of 4. I have always had a very good experience with MSI products in the past, easy to install and for the most part problem free. That is until now. I am having a rough time with the VGA card and IRQ conflicts. In the past with all my MSI motherboards I was able to choose ( Reserve IRQ for VGA) Not so with the 865PE NEO 2V.( Unless I am missing something and doing it wrong) To make a long story short the MSI NX 6600 (NVIDIA GeForce 6600) VGA card is sharing IRQ 16 with Intel(R) 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller - 24D2 and Intel(R) 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller - 24DE. For the most part the system runs OK except every so often during startup the system loses the VGA Card and tries to reinstall the card and software. After reinstalling the software the first time it happened I subsequently tried choosing Cancel on the prompt to install and simply reboot the computer. To my surprise the system always seems to see the VGA card on the second boot! and works fine. I have been running the system for two days now with the USB disabled in the bios which gives the VGA card IRQ 16 by itself, so far the system has seen the VGA card each and every startup without problems. Since the USB and AGP are fixed I am unable to move anything. Unfortunately I need the USB for my printer and scanner. I would also like to add that I have the latest BIOS upgrade for the Motherboard and the latest MSI Drivers for the VGA card.
Any suggestions on how to get the VGA card on its own IRQ?
Thanks for any input
Mike
Edited to add that For an OS I have WinXP Pro service pack2

or rather, the poorly installed drivers.

I take umbrage with your statement. I installed the latest drivers from MSI correctly! I also chose not to install the very latest as they are a Beta version with the warning they may be unstable! Perhaps I was under the misguided impression that I would be better off with the latest drivers offered by MSI for the particular VGA card I paid my good money for! ( this is the main reason I thought the problem was not driver related!) It is not my fault that MSI dropped the ball in its offerings to its valued customers!
Just because I was being polite to Hans who offered so much good advice and showed such a genuine concern for my troubles doesn't mean I had not read the advice from Nvidia on how to uninstall and reinstall "their" drivers! I will admit though that from my read on Nvidias suggestions they did not go as far as to recommend uninstalling the norton works completely, only disabling it!
On another note My computer seems to be starting so far without the problem! On yet another note after installing Nvidias driver package Version: 91.31 You get a warning every time you start up that the SLI is disabled. (unless your sli equipped) I found a fix for it and have it stored on my web space if anyone wants it. It is a zip file and I guarantee that I've scanned it with Norton and it is virus free. After unzipping it and clicking on it it makes an entry into the system registry removing the warning.

I just checked my email and have a reply from the service department. Here is what they said:

Dear customer,
The latest BIOS can be installed using Live Update:
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/software/swr/spt_swr_list.php?kind
=1
The latest driver for the VGA can be found on www.nvidia.com. We (and
other VGA vendors) do not make our own drivers, nVidia (and ATI) make
the drivers. So at the website from nVidia the latest drivers can be
found.

MSI NX6600 128Mb 128Bits VTD128 - Drivers......

Hi,
My VGA is NX6600 128Mb 128Bits with VIVO.
I downloaded the MSI(NVIDIA) driver in Download session on MSI site. But, the version of this drivers is old, and this drivers in game BattleField2 not run correctly.
I downloaded the new drivers 84.21 of NVIDIA web page, this drivers run correctly in BF2, but i want use D.O.T. function and this driver not have this software. ?Where I download only D.O.T. software to install and use in my instaled NVIDIA drivers?
Tks
Razi

You must download from MSI the same driver but for the MSI NX6600GT. I have the MSI NX6600 VTD128 Diamond and I had the same problem that you, MSI does not update the page for this video cards (6600 and 6600 Diamond) but yes for the 6600GT, I don't know why... .
Try with this and post it.
Greetings!!!.
PD: Like allways, sorry for my english.

MSI 6600 diamond PCI-E/ 3DMARK05 = 739/ PSU Problem?

This is my first post, so forgive me if it's not OK.
I have an MSI NX6600 VTD128E diamond. I am getting the Nvidia Sentinal warning approx. 75% of the time. I just installed an Enermax EG465P-VE FMA. I'm not sure if the specs will show up in my profile, so they are 3.3v - 35A, 5v - 35A, 12v - 33A. From all the reading I have done I thought this would solve my problem, but it did not. My original PSU was a 300W Hipro with dual 12v rails @ 18A each that came with my computer, and I got the warning everytime I turned it on, which is why I switched for the new one.
These cards get there power from the PCI-E slot on the motherboard with no option for an extra power connector. At this point I don't know if I need a new PSU with dual 12v rails, or if there is something else causing the problem. From reviews of other 6600 cards I think my 3DMARK05 numbers should be between 2600-3200? Any thoughts or suggestions would be very appreciated.

Thanks for the reply blazing storm.
I have had 1 or 2 restarts trying beta drivers, 71.81 and MSI's 71.22 caused a strange xp screen saying please wait, but it never booted up. Far cry wouldn't load with one of them. This is the only game I'm playing right now and it actually runs pretty good with settings on High. My clock speeds were at 400/800 after the Sentinal warning so I'm not sure what it is doing, but my marks definatly suggest something is wrong. Everything runs ok with the 66.93, which I used before the beta's and I am using them now.I didn't get the warning when I started my Comp this time so I think I will try 3DMARK05 again just to see if there are any changes.
From what I understand about Memtest (very little) I need a floppy drive, but I don't have one. Am I correct or is there another way to use the program? Anybody else have some ideas? Please.
PS- could someone explain the differences between ATX12V, ATX V1.0, V1.3, V2.0, V2.3? etc. Do the new PCI-E boards need a specific version? Thanks.

MSI P4N Diamond, Socket 775 compatibillity

Could anyone please tell if there are any known compatibility issues between a MSI P4N Diamond, Socket 775 motherboard and a PowerColor X800 GTO, 128MB, 256bit video card? I have heard that this video card might have some issues used together with mb based on NVIDIA chipset. Is this true? There some bios updates that can fix such issues? Thnks.

I have sent an e-amil to MSI support and I got this answer:
dear user :
in this case , we will suggest you to use anlther vga card like X800GT /X850 ,
because the are a few customer reported for these
are some status happen if they hope to enable dual-display feature with X800GTO
+ mainboard based on nvidia chipset , and this
status might happen because there are some resource conflict between the X800GTO
and them/b bios .
Any advices?

Yep the thread is long winded and a bit bizar in places if you were not in on the original conversation.
However it does give a load of info to work with if you have a Diamond board. We discuss parts, Overclocking and various other topics of interest.
Some say we should publish that thread to put some poor slobs in colledge to sleep.
Enjoy.

Can I use 4GB RAM on my MSI K8N Diamond with Windows 7?

Can I use 4GB RAM on my MSI K8N Diamond with Windows 7? I have put 4GB DDR 1 in my motherboard but windows 7 says (2.75GB usable)...
Regards, Jay

It depends highly on how much hardware (add-in cards) you have installed. If you have two VGA-cards, then it's likely that usable memory stays below 3GB. If you take some hardware out, you will see the usable memory increase a bit, but you won't reach the full 4GB. It will go as far as about 3.25 or so.

MSI K8N Diamond Plus - Guide to my first week

OK, not a newb here, but been around the block quite a bit. MSI K8N Diamond Plus is my 5th A64 mobo (ECS K8M800, my daily undestroyed computer, K8T800, my 12 year olds gamer, Asus A8V Deluxe, first 939 system, Abit AN8 SLI, first SLI gamer, and now the MSI Diamond Plus). Had the KDP (K8N Diamond Plus) for more than a week now, and here's what I've learned.
This is state of the art again, and we have no one to blame but ourselves for the pain this causes us when we upgrade like lunatics
And as usual, the drivers and BIOS are al Dente (i.e. not cooked enought yet, a little raw)
MSI is also oddly silent on this system, which is wierd, as they are a large company, and specifically cater to enthusiasts. But their BIOS guys are MIA. Hopefully this will not be forever. Asus, ABIT, DFI, Epox are always fast with fixes
The board is a nice design, with everything basically accessible, as much as any other board. Lots of purposeful components, not too many dumb frills. No tooty fruity colors, but rather practical parts.
The new 2 piece NForce chipset is fine, and the MSI guys gave us a decent, but funky cooler. It gets a little warm to the touch when you pound on it with Prime95, or Quake4, but other than that it is fine
The manual has a zillion typos, and fortunately for us in this forum, we have shared what we've learned. The translation from Chinese to English leaves quite a bit to be desired, and hopefully, MSI will learn from Asus and Abit and get a better translation service. In 2006 this is just plain stupid, especially with a $225 board
As usual, the mobo supplied tweaker utilities are just aweful. They look like a hallucination from a Hunter S Thompson book, and they work about as well. Core center is a sad state of affairs, and the rest of them just burrow their way into your otherwise stable system and cause it to have poor behavior. And therefore as usual, the BIOS is the best way, if slowest, to tweak this bundle of parts
Which brings us to the BIOS. IMHO, the worst one I've seen on a high end board. ZERO explanation for half the settings (this is not strange in and of itself, BIOS is still a black art, but in a tweakers board, we should have some basic explanation )
There seem to be adequate settings in the BIOS for all sorts of doodads and gizmos, but who the heck knows what half of them are. Roger points out rightfully, that we now need to "Tune" across all these different intermediary bus structures and test. But with the lack of info from either NVidia, MSI or anyone else for that matter, its kinda hard to know where to start.
The board is clearly sensitive, which is a result of it being high strung. This is no different than any "first out" product I've ever bought. Most take 2 or 3 turns of the crank to get totally stable and forgiving. This one hated my OCZ platinum EL 2Gb kit memory, and it brought out the worst in one of the SLI based EVGA 7800 GT COs. These components worked in the Abit AN8 SLI (although not always great), but the MSI has ZERO tolerance for even the slightest pertubation from the memory. It was BSOD city until I removed both of these components by process of elimination that took probably 100 hours
Once I removed the bad components, and replaced the memory with Geil Ultra X 2x512 2-2-2-5, it worked great, ran Prime95 for 10 hours with no errors, and seems reasonably stable. I've RMA-d the bad 7800GT CO back to EVGA, and will report back on how SLI behaves when I get the new one (cross shipped of course, I haveno patience )
I also now need to replace the 2Gb RAM kit with something that the board will tolerate. I may RMA the 2Gb kit back to OCZ and try another one, but I dunno. I love OCZ but I have a bad feeling about this, even though they have great!!! support. I may try OCZ PC4000 or the RAM that Roger successfully used.
I did upgrade to the 1.16 BIOS, and found that some new things were added, as well as voltage control in Cell was a little better, but registration of changes in voltage is still a disaster. I adjusted a bunch of times, it didn't register, and I ended up smoking a new A64 3700+ Diego with 1.95 volts, even though the BIOS claimed it was 1.53. I had to rebot to see what was going on. The Thermalright XP-90 kept the proc from melting down through the earth
Finally, I hope this board attracts more people, and therefore more tweakers that can figure out all these gadgets and settings. Everyone flocked to the Asus X16 SLI product, which is too bad, as this one needs lots o' folks to hack it up for us to figure out what is going on.
The on board Creative audio sounds lousy to my ears, and I will replace it with an Audigy 2ZS gamer that I had in the Abit. It just sounds better, but hopefully the drivers will not trash my newly stable system. Creative scares me, they scare me alot.
I've been able to get the CPU up to 2.4Ghz, with a .5 volt bump to the CPU and 2.9 volts into the Geil memory. So far, so stable, no smoke coming out yet
I hope this info is somewhat valuable to someone on this board. I will post details of all changes that I make, as others are doing, so we can at least take care of ourselves with this thing.

first of all, i do think that all the settings in the BIOS have an explanation in the manual, even if it's a basic one. if that explanation doesn't tell you everything in detail, is because if you do need a detailed explanation of the settings, you probably shouldn't be messing around with those settings.

a 0.5V bump? again, you must be joking. maybe 0.05V.

MSI NX6600-VTD256EH VIVO problems

i have this problem with my MSI NX6600-VTD256EH VIVO card. I can't get it to capture. Do i need some different drivers etc? I have tried searching for some advice for it but just can't find none.

It seems you missed part of what was written above your post. Quote from: Stu on 23-March-06, 03:04:44
what capture software are you using?
do you have the correct WDM capture driver installed? look in the 'Windows drivers we recommend' sticky for links
whats the exact problem you're having with capturing?
Do you have the WDM capture driver installed? Exo has posted a link where you can find them.
I did miss your sentence. I was in a rush out the door to an appointment.
I'm not sure where your statement "Be polite and not sturdy" comes from though. Maybe it's the manner in which you read my post.

MSI K9N DIAMOND boot problems

Hi.
I have given the main PC sig below to my son. And I now have / building
MSI K9N DIAMOND AM2 nvidia nForce 590 SLI 8channel audio DDR2 ATX
Corsair 1GB DDR2-6400 128Mx64 non-ECC 240 DIMM unbuffered 5-5-5-12
AMD 2x 5600 cpu
I have kept the PSU, wifi card.
(will update when up and running.)
When I put his harddrive (SATA) into his new PC it saw it straight away and booted into xp,without having to reinstall . Great.
I put my drive into the new AM2 board and I get three beeps (I read that's the USBs)
Then it either just hangs on a black screen or if i enable raid it tries then the BSOD code 0x0000007E which i believe is just a standard error message.
The D-bracket has 4 green lights...
does anyone know why I cant just boot up my drive like i could with my sons, is it because i'm switching to AM2 from 939?
When I enter the raid setup (F10) it can see the drive but next to where it says bootable drive which is normally a yes or a no it has N/A and I cannot change it.
I belive it is a raid/ driver problem I'm thinking its the AM2 upgrade.
I did not get any floppy raid drivers with my mo/bo.
If I reinstalled Xp would I need to install raid drivers during setup? (F6)
I have clears cmos
Many thanks for any help.

hello
I plugged my sons drive into my K9N Diamond and it is saying the same thing in the raid setup (F10) .....When you have the option to set as the bootable drive
Quote "set as boot drive N/A"
It can see the drive OK, I can delete array and rebuild it
Is there something in the bios that I need to tick or untick/ enable for it to boot from the drive?
any help would be great.
thanks

If it really was 2.64V on the +12V rail, your MOBO wouldn't even post. That reading is a wrong reading. What are you using to check the voltages? What is shown in the BIOS?
i really had serious problems .Two A..S Striker 2 Extreme down ,2 MSI P7N2 diamond mobo down {[3 x ( start,5sec -> freze)] and no post anymore} And suddenly the third P7N2 Diamond working.
Nothing changed. How to explain this?

MSI K8N Diamond hangs on startup

Without having changed anything (neither hardware nor software), the computer now hangs on every bootup.
It only get to the MSI Diamond logo screen (with Graphic memory passed and memory check stated in the background)
I cant even press DEL to enter BIOS menu or F11 to enter startup menu.
The computer has worked like a charm for 6 months since I installed it, so this current problem is really strange.
Windows XP Pro SP2
MSI K8N Diamond (Award Bios)
XFX GeForce 6800 Ultra
2048MB PC3500 RAM
250GB SATA Hitachi Deskstar T7K250 7200RPM (Master boot)
250GB ATA Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM
Creative Soundblaster XFI Fatal1ty FPS
Logitech MX510
Logitech UltraX Flat Keyboard

My PSU is a Hiper Type-R 480W (sufficient for my usage at least)
The problem seems to be in the USB handling, since it randomly decides to fullfill the startup after I've disconnected/reconnected some of the USB devices;
My USB devices are;
Wacom Intuos2 (Tablet)
M-Audio Oxygen-8 (Midi keyboard)
These USB ports and devices never caused any problems before though. And since the startup shouldn't care about USB, it's damn strange that it just hangs without any error what so ever.

No signal - MSI K8N Diamond

Hello, I have a K8N Diamond motherboard which I've had for about 4 months. I tried to set it up a while ago but I remember it not working, anyway I tried again this morning but I'm getting the same problem. After I install everything and start up the PC I get a "no signal" on my monitor. The fans start up, and all the led's come on but nothing else seems to be happening. There is no problem with the graphics card, soundcard, hard drive, ram, power supply or any of the cd drives as I am using them all now on a different pc. I am thinking it is either the cpu which is also 4 months old, bought at the same time as the motherboard, or a fault with the actual motherboard?
MSI K8N Diamond nForce 4 SLI ATX Motherboard
Radeon 9800 XT Graphics card
M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 Soundcard
Bestec 250 watt Power Supply
Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 160 GB Harddrive
AMD 64 Athlon 3500 Socket 939 2.2 GHZ Processor
1536 MB Ram
I know the power supply needs upgrading to around 450 watt but i'm sure that shouldnt cause this problem?
Any ideas?
Thanks, adam.

dude, 250W power supply? i think this is the lowest one i've seen on the forum. no wonder your rig is not powering up. go get yourself a good PSU, something with more than 25A on the 12V rail. the Tagan 480 looks like a favorite amongst the users.
haha i know. i had a 400 watt but it blew so i've been using this since. I'll head out and get a new one today and see if that does the trick. thanks

Soundblaster Audigy on MSI K8N Diamond Plus, Sound Linked? vs Audigy2 ZS?

Had a couple of quick questions regarding the Soundblaster Audigy onboard chip on my MSI K8N Diamond Plus. I have the audio connected to a front panel, and when I try and change the Right or Left speaker volume balance in Windows (by going to volume control and dragging the balance slider right or left), the volume slider goes down and the balance slider snaps back to center. As in my previous post, I had some damage to my front panel connector pins and wanted to make sure this wasn't a hardware issue requiring a replacement of the board.
Also, I have a Soundblaster Audigy2 ZS card from my previous system, and I was wondering if it added anything the onboard Soundblaster chip doesn't provide. I was thinking of installing it, but if the onboard audio does everything the card would, I'd rather just use the onboard solution.
Thanks.

MSI K8N Diamond - Front Audio Header Mic problem

Hello,
I'm Alex Dias Teixeira from the netherlands
About 3 months ago I assembled my own computer, but yesterday is tried to install my Fronpanel that is on my case. Not without problem.
I connected all pins as said in he manuals, and replaced the two jumpers with the pins, no problems so far. The problem is that my microphone is not working properly in my frontpanel.
Its seems to work but when I record my sound in Windows Soundrecorder I get a flatline but can hear my sound I recorded... in MSNmessenger and Windows Speech hardware test my sound is POOR( bad and soft sound ). I have no clue anymore ... anything is connected properly :(

Check the manual, but if you use the microphone plug-in in the back on the motherboard, you might disable microphone input
to the front case header panel. I believe if you use the microphone in the back, it disables microphone input from the front. Also be sure to check the multimedia/sound settings near the clock to make sure you don't have anything muted in advanced tabs found.
