MSI R4870-T2D512 compatibility with crossfire and a current card

I own the factory overclocked version of the stand r4870. I was interested in purchasing another and setting up crossfire mode. The same card is being sold for %50 more than what I originally paid. Talk about a rip-off.
If I wanted to buy a more current model, will it crossfire with my MSI R4870-T2D512?
If I buy a 1gb version of a new card, will it only use 512megs since the older card only has 512? If possible, what would be the equivalent to the old MSI R4870-T2D512.
Do I have to buy an MSI card or can I buy HIS, or some other brand?
I have a MSI P45 Platinum LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard

Thanks for the combo chart. That answered question 1. I noticed that the dotted intersections are the "recommended graphics combination for compatibility" That limits me to a 4870 or a 4870x2. What happens when you are using a card that is not the recommended?
Do I have to buy an MSI card or can I buy HIS, or some other brand?

Lenovo Wireless Headset W770 compatibility with Linux and Mac

Hi,
Can someone provide me information on Lenovo Wireless Headset W770 compatibility with Linux and Mac distributions. On the product overview page under Software Requirements, only Windows is mentioned. http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?submit=true&componentID=1343112653906&DocID=PD...
Please let me know if the headset can work with other distributions as well.
Thanks & Regards,
Keya

Go to Solution.

I just received W770 and tried it on a PC and it worked. But when I plug the USB receiver in a macbook air (2011 MAC OS 10.6.8), it didn't work. The message I got is that MAC can't recognize the "keyboard" and asked me to press the shift button on the unrecognized keyboard- which I guess meant that the MAC treated the USB dongle as if it were a wireless keyboard of some sort. Anyway, would appreciate it if you could let me know how to make it work on MAC. The previous statement saying that it would work on any Lenovo machine regardless of OS is kinda of unclear - do you mean that it would also work on lenovo running MAC OS (is there any Lenovo running Mac OS?). Thanks.

Problem with NEO2 and sata controller card

1.Product Type: MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum (MS-7025)

4.CPU Type: AMD 64 3500+
5.Memory Type: G Skill ZX 2048mb.
6.Power Supply Type:
7.Operating System: Xp Pro
8.Problem Description:
Hello. I have a strange problem with my controllercard. I wrote this text to InnoVision suport and they send me files and bios updates for a whole week and it was still the same problem. And then i tried the card in an older computer and everything worked fine.
I wrote
"Hello. I got some problems with my new controller card. I can find my new harddrive ,that's conected to the controller card, when iam inside windows and it's seems to be no problem. I can look on every seting on it and everywhere i look i can read "No problem". I Also did some test with the seatools programe and everything was fine. But when i schould copy files to it the coumputer start lagging after a few seconds and i cant do anything. After a while i can move the mouse around but the it laggs again. My computer is overclocked at the time but i have tried to use the harddrive when it's not clocked also. Also when im goin in to teh controlpanel and starts the setings for Sillicon Images sata controll and have music on my computer, the music laggs for a very very short moment. Something must be wrong and i can not find it."
It's still the same problem in my computer. The older computer had a MSI moderboard with a VIA chip and i have a nForce 3. InnoVison said i should talk to you about this problem. I have 3 harddrives but i use this controllercard because i want to have my computer overclocked and then i can't use 2 of the sata ports as i think you know.
I would be very thankful if you could help me with this problem.

I've used a noname SATA pci card (non raid) with SIL3112 on my neo2 without problems with 1C bios.
Think you may try with a disk lower than 48bitLBA need (137GB barrier), eg a 120GB disk
Quote:
have the InnoVision EIO DM-8301 and had alot of problems using it with WD 160MB SATA drive.
I am using Intel 865 based MB with 2 original SATA channels. The original SATA channels are bootable.
I could not used the EIO card with 160G HDD. The whole setup is working only after I connected oine of my 120G Segate SATA HDD to the EIO Sata card.
I think this card do not properly support HDD above 120G.
Please respond to: [email protected]
http://www.devhardware.com/forums/storage-devices-80/sata-as-boot-20080-2.html
Btw: you have xp sp2 ?
48bitLBA is not enabled in the first version.

Edit:
Here's another with complete different setup and same problems
http://forum.tweakxp.com/forum/Topic212148-4-1.aspx
I doubt it has anything to do with your motherboard and/or bios.
Btw: I looked at innovision and their drivers in download area are very old.
Get the latest SIL3112 drivers for XP here:
http://www.siliconimage.com/support/supportsearchresults.aspx?pid=63&cid=3&ctid=2&osid=4&
And remember 3112 is sata150 only , so it's not sure it will work with your drive at all .
Anyway it should be set to fixed sata1.5G with jumper - not certain the controller can autonegotiate
without trouble. You cannot have command queing enabled either , disk support only NCQ and controller TCQ
so having command queing set ON will cause major conflicts in data transfers.

Is it worthy to buy a Zen with 2Gb and a SD card of 4 or is it better to buy a Zen with 4

Hi.
I'm thinking on buying a Zen, but i'm a bit confused on the issue of if is it better to buy a Zen with 4Gb or a Zen with 2Gb and a SD card with 4Gb, because the diference on the pricefrom the 2Gb to the 4Gb fits a SD card with 4Gb, and will result in a Zen with 6Gb...
Does the zen works fine with the reading times of the SD cards? Or does the performance drops when reading from the card?
I would apreciate your experience/knowing opinions.
Thanks
BM

dm4-1060us laptop SD Card Reader 5-in-1 question. Does it work with SDHC and SDXC memory cards?

This cart reader is a kind of multi card reader and you can use different cards with it. In my opinion every multi device should be used very, but very gently. I do not know what happened exactly in your case but maybe you have damaged something inside.
Try to restart your notebook and use other SD card to check if everything works well. Please do it very gently and if you see something is wrong stop with inserting the card.
I use 1 GB SD card on my A200 without any problems.
In my opinion you should check notebook by technician.
Bye and good luck!

Which NB100 comes with Bluetooth and the sim card slot

i am wondering which model come with bluetooth and the sim card slot,

I was a little disappointed the Bluetooth is missing on the NB 1000 12A, agreed the Bluetooth logo is on the left side of the box although the actual product spec sticker is on the right side and it only mentions wireless b/g.
Some of the listings for this model online do say it has Bluetooth although its evident its not included.
I have ordered one of these to cover the lack of onboard Bluetooth support:

Problem with iTunes compatability with iMovie and iPhoto

I purchased some music from the iTunes music store and wanted to use that music in a homemade DVD I made. I also have tried using the purchased music when I play a slideshow in iPhoto. In both instances, an error window popped up saying that I needed to launch iTunes and authorize the computer to play the song... Well I bougth the music on the same computer and it is authorized. I typed in the authorization anyways and then after that iMovie and iPhoto both pop up with an error saying that it can't use the file.
Thinking it might just be one song file... I have tried this with many purchased song. I have had the same problem with all of the purchased songs I've tried.
Are some purchased songs not compatable with the iLife applications? How can I fix this problem? I'm running iLife 05 and I have installed all of the updates, including the most recent...
iTunes 6.0.2
iPhoto 5.0.4
iMovie HD 5.0.2

Project Server 2010 compatibility with IE11 and Windows 8.1

Hi All!
Maybe a silly question since compatibility is always asked about older versions, but here is my question:
Is Project Server 2010 compatible with IE11 and Windows 8.1?
I personnaly tested with IE11 and it seems to be ok. All views and pages can be opened with IE11.
But what about windows 8.1?
Has Microsoft done any communication about this?
Thanks in advance for your helps.

I am seeing a minor issue with the timesheet grid after users are upgraded from IE8 to IE11.
We are using Project Server 2010 with SP1 and Oct 2013 CU.
When some users (using IE11) switches between filters or views in the Timesheet page, the grid shrinks making to content un readable. The only way to get it back is to refresh the page. After a refresh, the grid returns to normal size, but the pane
divider is too far to the left and always must be dragged to the right in order to see the task names in the left grid.

BasicTx and BasicRx daughter boards compatibility with USRP2920 and LabView

I want to know that BasicTx and Basic Rx daughter boards from Ettus research are compatible with USRP2920 and Labview or not.
Also do these boards supports variable gain or not? Please confirm
Thanks
JK
Solved!
Go to Solution.

They will work but you need to use property nodes to configure them. Ther is no LO so ther is no center frequency parameter. I and Q are separate channels so you will need to break them apart and treat them as such. There is no gain because the boards essentially provide access to the ADC.

Help! New to Mac - compatability with DVI and JVC HDTV

Hope someone can help. I'm new to mac and have just bought a mac mini and a JVC LT32DS HDTV to use as a media centre. I've scanned through the hundreds of postings on the DVI problem with the mac and would like an idiots guide (literally!)as how to set the mini to work with the JVC TV.
Following the advice I've got the two working witha VGA connection but once I use the DVI/HDMI (profigold)cable the screen is not stable and keeps flashing in and out view. I've tried various resolution settings but get no stability. I've read about Switch Res X but don't really know if this is the right way to go.

I went to "Mediamarkt" and tried two Philips HDTVs
1) 26PF5320
2) 26PF9320
TV 1) had no problem accepting the DVI signal from the mini at all the native resolutions I tried (no extra software). TV 2) -- originally my favoured one -- had a barely noticeable overscan on the menubar.
So I bought the 26PF5320: a bit cheaper but also higher native resolution.
So it pays to compare even similar models. Retailers will understand the situation. However, it's important to go on a slow day -- not on Saturday -- and maybe hurry up before Christmas. Understandably they don't want to spend too much time on demonstrations when the store is full of potential customers.
The young man from the store was very impressed with the mini. Less impressed with Quicktime and that you have to pay to get a full-screen video. But that's another story.
I was able to carry the TV and the mini (the latter in a backpack) from the store to the tram and then from the tram stop to home. Just two year ago this would have been science-fiction.
I will try to collect more data on HDTV/mini matches and mismatches and maybe put it in an ASCII table for a start.

Best format for external HDD for compatibility with Windows and Mac?

I have a couple of USB HDDs formatted as MS-DOS (FAT32) which I use on both my iMac and Toshiba laptop .
This week I discovered that I could have used exFAT which would have avoided the 4GB file limitation.
Apart from this, are there any other pros or cons associated with exFAT and would it be advisable to use this formatting in future?

I am cross using extern HDD and USB Stick's. Win7 64 and OSX 10.9. I had the best results when i format the drive with OSX (best cluster size by automatic). I am using small 16GB USB Stick's and large 2TB HDD.
Some Windows Programs does not work if they are not installed on NTFS and you also have no security on both systems in filesystem because exFat has no security. Could be also a bad idea to use a exFat drive for iPhoto Library but not tested.
I use exFat for Data like Music, Pictures, and Movies. To share home made things with friends and family.
If you use "active" Files like programs or databases use the "OS Native" filesystem, you have less problems :-)

KT4V (with lan) and TV Tuner Cards

I have a MSI motherboard model MS6712. This device isn’t compatible with any PCI TV Tuner Card. When I am using a tv-tuner card, after some minutes the computer crashes and the only way is turning off the computer by switching off the power. This problem happened with four tv cards which I have used. My motherboard has been replaced two times with others MS6712 motherboards. But the problem, which doesn’t happen on a MSI MS6385, is still persistent. Drivers and Bios are up to date.
My motherboard has known incompatibilty with any tv tuner card? I think that this problem affects any MS6712 motherboard.
Anyway the problem is surely caused by the hardware or by a defective BIOS.

Apple MacBook Air 11 inch, 13 inch, or Dell XPS 14 with i7 and nvidia graphics card?

I am a college student looking for either a MacBook Air 11 inch or a MacBook Air 13 inch. I was looking at the Dell XPS 14 with i7 processor and nvidia graphics card. It is similar in price to an Apple MacBook Air 11 inch. I will mainly use the laptop for browsing, a bit of Minecraft, watching videos (netflix/downloading movies), presentations, and documents. I would also need it to be lightweight because I will be carrying it around campus. I cannot choose between these three.....any ideas? I have an iPhone 5 and iPad with retina display (that is what I use currently and it is not working out). I just saw the WWDC14 and I saw how all my devices could connect to the Mac flawlessly.
Please let me know,
Thanks

I recommend the macbook 13" retina. Yes, it is expensive, but if you pair it with 8GB of memory, you should be futureproof for the next 5 years minimum. Why not the air.
Currently the air sports thunderbolt 1, This is super outdated. Macbook pro has thunderbolt 2 which allows you to daisy chain monitors via display port 1.2. Macbook Air sports display port 1.1a which only allows daisy chaining amoungst thunderbolt monitors which are expensive. $1000 minimum per a monitor where as you could pickup a daisy chainable displayport 1.2 dell monitor for $200. The only reason I am severely regretting my 13" Air.
The screen, yes, in a few years all screens will sport retina resolutions. It makes a big difference when reading and typing for long periods of time. Text is more clear. Also, 11" is way too small. If you want something that small, get an Ipad Air.
Battery life, 9 hours should still be enough to get you through the day. I go to school and I could only top out at 7 hours usage at most.
Gaming, Although I dont recommend gaming on any laptop because laptops aren't meant so much for gaming. Mostly because the heat generated from it kills the life of your laptop. It is up to 20% faster than the air.
Weight, half a pound off the 13" AIR is not a big deal. Actually the retina is smaller in height and width, so better center of balance when using it on your lap and the black bezel is less distracting.
Processor, its 10% faster in overall processing speeds generally.
Dont forget to purchase 2 year extended warranty. Buy that from bhphoto for 180 bucks. No tax and its way cheaper than apple.
If you still want the air after that, consider getting the 13". It comes with sd card slot, it is handy when you run out of space. And its 10% faster than the 11" even though they have the same processor. The processor's performance is based on the thermal threshold of the computer. The hotter it gets, the slower the computer gets to cool the processor down.
If you choose the Macbook Pro 13" RETINA(Not the $999 version with the DVD Drive), if you can, wait till late october when they update the computer with better hardware. Well... if you can.

MOVED: MSI 785GT-E63 problems with temps and temp hardware

This topic has been moved to Off-Topic Technical.

I also use cpuid hwmonitor to check temps n volts 12 vlt rail is at 12.05 during load. The gpu load temps on the lightning nvr exceed 72c at stock and 76c with the oc. Should I get a new mobo? Compatibility issue? I was looking at a asrock 990fx extreme 3 as this would allow me to upgrade my CPU later if I choose. I am on my current main pc bc bulldozer didn't grab me. Some benches r less than the x6s, my two 6970s perform btr than a single 7970 for my needs and the only increase I would see is if I got two 7970s that's way to much coin n would be bottlenecked by my current CPU I'm sure. Any ideas? I'm at a loss
