Msi ti 4200 problems

i installed a msi 4200 agp video card today and have had nothing but problems. on the first boot xp did not try to install new hardware. In the display properties it did not recognize the video adapter. i tried to intsall the drivers from the installation cd but it said it was not the right files and did not recognize the path. on the second reboot no picture after windows boots. i have a gigabyte mb ga-7vrxp and am upgrading from a pci video card. any help would be much appreciated.

Thatz Y... I won't switched to XP until it has really settle down...
lambethduke, I know where you've got things wrong and its a common mistake as I have accidentally did it myself before ... You must have direct right click on your Display adapter driver and un-install... This will cause the screen to go blank during startup whenever you wanna install the drivers again, though you may be able to see part of the windows starting up... Next time, juz un-install the driver by double clicking on the driver and inside the profile click on un-install and this problem will never exist to you anymore...
All the Best... :D!!!

MSI G4Ti-4200 problem

Hey all, hope you can help me out.
Having some major problems with installing the Ti4200 64 card on my system. My system continually crashes with it and no games or programs run for very long, freezing or just not loading, due to lack of virtual memory.
I've downloaded the latest patch for my motherboard and graphics card so its not that. Might be the psu as its only 300w so I'm looking into upgrading that. Could there be a prob with the motherboard, memory or psu. I can't afford to upgrade all of them so is there a way of finding out which one it could be.
System:
Win 98
Athlon Thunderbird 1.1
FIC AZ11 motherboard
765 crucial sdram pc133 (1 x 256 and 1 x 512)
Maxtor Plus8 IDE 40 gig Hard Drive
MSI G4 Ti4200 td-64
Creative SB Live!
Liteon dvd
300w psu

hi again,
here are the specs for my psu.
+3.3v - 15A
+5v - 35A
+12v - 10A
-5v - 0.5A
-12v - 0.5A
I've since flashed my motherboard with the latest bios, probably not the wisest thing to do in hindsight as now nothing happens at all with the msi agp card so i'm running off my pci voodoo 3 2000 now. As far as the cmos is concerned, its got all the same settings as before and now i'm totally confused. I'm guessing a new psu is the order of the day.

Msi kt3 ultra, msi gf4 4200 tvout problem

I have a msi gf4 4200 64mb card and i have a msi kt3 ultra aru and windows xp,
my problem is tv out is garbled in pal , ntsc is grey (iam in europe), the colours seem inverted blues are red, etc and theres a ghosting effect around moving images like in videos or around the cursor
Ive tried everything from default mem setting , to high performance , tried diferent driver sets , tried windows 2000, tried via chipset drivers, latest msi, nvidia gf drivers, pal b , g , i , 60hz, diferent resolutions, clone view, single output to tv, stretch view , nothing seems to fix it, the only thing that comes close to fixing it is using the tvtool http://tvtool.info/ with color fix correction activated, but the images isnt stable its got a weird strecthing, shimmering effect on the bottom half of the tv image
Iam sure that the problem is not tv or cable related because i tried a friends p4 (board msi sis 645dx) with the exact same model gf4 4200 (not my one) with my scart cable and tv set up and it worked fine.
Could it be a voltage problem? ive even tried upping agp and core voltage a bit to see if helps, and nothing

mhuizing,
nope havent tried a diferent tv , but it should work , i tested the connection with a friends computer
exact same gfx card model and it worked fine!
My old system leadtek gf3 ti200 , epox 8kha+ worked fine with this connection.
Iam using a scart cable to a video , then from the vid to the tv via antena cable
i upgraded and voila, i got some headaches for free :P !!!

MSI TI-4200 Win 98SE Rebooting

I needed to create a Window 98SE disk so I can play some of my games that don't work on XP Pro. I have used the latest drivers, but after I installed the drivers for the card, the PC reboots and goes into safe mode. On my XP drive, it all works great. How can I find out what the problem is? How can I fix this so I can get to playing my games again?
Thanks, Dean.
FYI ...
nVidia 45.23 drivers
Intel 845PESV board with Pentium 4 3.06 Mhz
1 GB ram
WD 80GB hard drive

Ok, my current confuguration is as follows:
Intel DE845PESV motherboard
Intel Pentium 4 3.06 Mhz(533 FSB)
1 GB of Kingston 133mhz DDR ram
MSI TI-4200 Geforce 4 128mb graphic card
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz sound card
Compaq DVD-117 DVD drive
Liteon LTR-48246s CDR-W drive
Sony Floppy drive
Windows 98 SE
Promise Ultra ATA-133 (Tx2)
After some additional research, I believe the problem is with the nVidia drivers. I removed the drivers and had Windows configure the card as a standard VGA display card. Then everything boots OK, but only 16 colors. As soon as I install any version (I tried 40.71, 44.03 and 45.23) of the nVidia drivers, the PC re-boots with a problem loading ndis2sup.vxd. I don't know where to go from here.
The games I want to play are Mechwarrior 2 Titanium additon and Mechwarrior 3. I have tried many configurations in XP but no good. So I figure a drive with Windows 98SE will do the trick. I have everything loaded except the graphics card.
Is there any more info you need to help me?

MSI Ti-4200 TD GPU GRAPHICS "LAGGNESS"

I have bought the MSI Ti-4200 TD about 2 months ago and have installed it to my new D.I.Y computer. But it does noe seem to be running smoothly when I play games on my computer. For example, even for games like Warcraft III, C & C Generals and RalliSport Challenge. I have encounter small jams here and there during gameplay and the worst is in Rallisport Challenge where "laggness aka big jams and distortion" occurs at every 10 to 15 secs f gameplay which cause "dizziness" ...
I have even download the following driver for update on the GPU and things seems worst. After I have uninstall the old driver from my Win2K and install the fresh new driver, I have found that the system does not indicates whether my GPU is running under 2x or 4x AGP under Control Panel > MSI Information. I am unable to adjust my MSI Clock settings as an error message appearing says that "DirectDraw Init Failed. The sample will now exit". I do not have this problem with the previous driver. ?(

Well... Thanks for your advice, but I have already formatted my computer and re-install everything. Though now my computer and the GPU works well :] and perform rather well, but I will still take your advice to heart when the next time I come across this problem again. )
May I ask to confirm again? Is is that if I meet up with this problem, I will go to my DxDiag and de-activate my Direct Draw >> Restart my computer >> Re-activate my Direct Draw >> Restart my computer. Am I right?
Thanks again for your help :D !!!

MSI Ti 4200 random lockups

Ive been trying to get a GeForce 4 to work in my computer for over 3 months now and I am getting very frustrated. First I had a Visiontek Ti 4200 64Mb with a Soyo Dragon+ mobo and that would lockup any time I tried to play a video game. The screen would get covered with colored blocks and i would have to do a hard reboot. Then I decided to get a new Epox 8K5A2 mobo and used that with the Visiontek card and it still did the same lockups. I sold the Visiontek card and now I have an MSI Ti 4200 64Mb card and that is doing the same thing too. Last week I bought an Epox 8K3A+ because I had seen websites using it with the exact same videocard for benchmarks so I figured it has got to work. Got the board yesterday and guess what, it does the same damn thing as the others. I have a 600W Robanton powersupply that is designed for high-end servers. It puts out 40A at +3.3v and 60A at +5v so it can't be my powersupply. I tested both cards in my parents PC which has a Duron 750 and an Epox 8KTA3 mobo(350W Codegen PSU) and they worked perfectly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Lite-On 16xDVD and 16x CDRW
Netgear FA311 NIC
600W Robanton PSU

I upgraded my mobo to its latest BIOS version and it still didn't work so I swapped out my XP 2000+ for a Duron 750 and that still didnt work. Then I swapped my PSU for my parents 350W Codegen PSU and it works , no lockups. I just ran through 3Dmark2001 and it actually made it all the way thru. 8o Now I'm gonna swap the Duron 750 out and put my Xp 2000+ back in and I'll see if that works. If not then I'm gonna have to buy a new PSU. I'm gonna need some suggestions from people who have similar systems(Athlon XP, DDR mobo, GeForce4)

MSI Ti-4200 128 MB possible overclocking problem

I have a:
QDI Kudoz 7E/333A mobo
AMD Athlon 2000+ (Palomino)
MSI Ge-Force Ti-4200 128 MB
512 MB Ram@333
Maxtor 160 GB HDD UATA 133 8MB Cache
Western Digital 40 GB GDD UATA 100 2MB Cache
SB Live Audigy 2 NX
Nec DVDR/W 3520
Nec DVD-ROM 5500
Windows XP SP 2
NVidia Detonator (Forceware) 66.93
Coolbits2
I had overclocked my Ti-4200 to 285MHz Core and 585MHz RAMDAC using the coolbits registry key (boot settings). Everything worked fine for about a month, I have ran several 3DMark tests (mostly 2003) and many "heavy" games (Doom 3, Far Cry, HL2, Warhammer:DOW, etc) and no problems occured (crashes or weird graphics). The 3DMark 2003 score from 1500 now is 1700 and I am (was) quite happy about it. Yesterday I removed the 512 Ram and re-installed it after a while (had to remove the card also) and the PC, without having any problems at all (I was playing Dungeon Siege a few hours ago) suddenly, while in BIOS and DOS, the screen is filled with white dots (looks like Pac-Man ) and while loading the XP logo I see thin vertical lines (red and yellow) and then the monitor closes while the PC still works. I tried running in safe mode, it loaded but I still had these lines on the screen. I removed the DVD-ROM and the WD HDD just in case (350W PSU) but still had the same story. I installed a Club 3D Radeon 9600 Pro 256 MB and everything worked fine. I didn't install any Catalyst Drivers, I removed the coolbits from the registry and the NVidia drivers, re-installed the Ti-4200 and still I have the same problem. The card looks fine, no broken pins or anything. I also thought about a virus but this can't be, I triple-checked everything I installed and no viruses were found (and the Radeon worked).
I fear the overclocking was not so good after all but I can't be sure.
Any ideas?
Thanx in advance.

Proves a theory im made at least, MSI makes cheap / fault video ram, your card is a gonner pretty much, those vertical lines and monitor shuitting down are known as screen corruptions that occur when the video ram is fried (in most cases), did you overclock it by 10%? Im wondering if you can RMA a card since MSI does guarentee 10% overclock on some cards so I here but I cant be sure, someone else needs to answer that question as for MSI, if your going to overclock, dont buy from them, Im quite peeved at MSI because the memory on their cards cant even handle stock speeds let alone overclocked ones.

MSI TI 4200 - TD8X - PC freezes while playing games.. Dx problem? Settings? HELP!

Hi
I bought a MSI GF4 TI-4200 TD 8x about 2 months ago, and it has been running fine 'till now...I'm having a few problems in a few games (HALO, homeworld 2), ocasionally my computer freezes completely in the middle of these games, and I have to reboot...I've tried lots of things to solve this problem, but I wasn't able to just yet...As I know these 2 games use directx 9, I was wondering if my graphics card supports or is compatible with dx9...In the manual and on the site it says dx 8.1 compatible...doesn't mention dx 9... So I'd like to know if it is compatible, and if this may be the cause for all these gaming problems...If not, I'd like to know what can I do to detect where the problem is...
When the game crashes, a long beeping sound occurs...I think this may be relevant too...
I've updated the SB drivers, mobo drivers, nvidia drivers (tried 45.23 and 44.03), tried changing AGP aperture size on BIOS (64 or 128),

Please create a signature in your profile like mine.
I don't think this is directly related to your video card.
If no help here:
Post this question in the nForce forum too and tell them I told you to.
The reason is someone may have had this problem from that forum but deos not visit this one. I also suggest you post this question over at http://www.nforcershq.com/forum/ to see if they have experienced it.
I know I have experienced this problem but for the life of me I cannot remember what it was that fixed it.
Your sound and TV card are sharing IRQ's, you really should try to swap PCI slots so the Audigy is on it's own and the same goes with the TV card. I know slot 3 is a good spot for the TV card, you may have to swap till you get the best IRQ allocation.

Msi KT3 MoBo / MSI geForce4 TI 4200 Problem

Hello, hopefully someone can help me. I am having a rather unusual problem. Least I think it is. I have a MSI kt3 ultra2 motherboard, 512 meg ddr 2100 crucial ram. AMD XP 2000+ CPU and an MSI Geforce4 TI4200 video card. First of all, what agp settings should i use? 4x? 2x?. Secondly, should i enable agp fast writes? And last, what are the other 2 settings in the agp setup in the bios which are like 1/2 or 2/3?
I also ran mad onions 3d mark 2001 SE and got a score of 4898! This seems a little low to me. Comparing online, I should be getting scores rannging from 9000 to 13000. I have installed Nvidia Detonator drivers but they are the latest beta drivers. Are these bad drivers? None of my games ever freeze except for Soldier of Fortune 2. It slows way down and when i ctrl+alt+del, it says i am using 100% cpu usage. Can anyone help me? I just want my system i bought a week ago to run at its full potential and have nowhere else to turn.

I am using Windows XP Pro. I am running the 3d Mark 2001 SE with a 1024 resolution and no AA. I am also using a 32bpp color depth. The defaults when you load the program up for the first time basically. I never did get a patch for SOF II although I should have. Man do I fell like such a n00b.
Hey Jamie B, you said i should "disable support for advanced cpu controls is NOT checked". Where is that at?
Thanks to all who have replied. :D I appreciate it.

MSI ti 4200 128 MB and Problems with "Need for Speed: HighStakes"

Does any one know of a fix for "Need for Speed: HighStakes" with the new 45.32 drivers. When trying to start this game it won't even load, the screen goes dark for a second and then falls back to the desktop. Did the same thing with 43.45, but if I install the drivers that came with the Video card ( I think they were 31.XX) then the game works fine. Haven't come across any other games that won't run except this one, some examples that work fine are UT 2003, C&C: Generals, Warcraft 3, Hot Pursuit 2.
System:
XP pro OS (sevice pack 1) DirectX 9
Athlon 1800
512 MB RAM
MSI nforce 2 Main board
MSI GeForce 4 4200 ti 128 MB 8X AGP
Thanks for any info.

well I "bugged" the game makers (EA) and the response is that the game doesn't suport Windows XP. Strange that the older nVidia 31.xx drivers work fine with the game. Also played it on my last machine which had XP and a ATI radeon video card. OH well who ever said Direct X was supposed to be backward compatible.
Too bad the older drivers don't work so well with the newer games.

Hypermedia Cneter MSI tv@nywhere Problem on Vista

Hi.
i am new to this forum. Im having a problem with my MSI TV@NYWHERE Pro card ( http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=132&prod_no=1396 )
on Windows Vista Home premium eidition.
I installed the drivers and Hypermedia center on wondows xp where it was running fine.
Thereafter , installed Windows Vista home premium edition, installed drivers for the tv card and then installed Hypermedia Cnter , but upon running the Setup Wizard in the Hypr media Cnter , it gave the error... Cannot Set Capture Device /(1000). In the device Manager, the tv tuner card was installed and written device is properly installed and working. However on other 3rd party TV Softwares like Cyberlink Power Cinema and Windows Media Cneter, the tv card is working fine and i can view tv on these softwares but Hypermedia center gives the above mentioned error.
I want to run tv on the Hypermedia Center because of its ease of use.
Kindly help me sort out this problem, ve searched in forums but cudnt find an answer yet.
thanks.

I had the same problem, all the PCI cards on my vista installation were not recognized under the device manager.
It's a vista problem. BUT THERE'S A SOLUTION, found it on some bb:
http://www.tkarena.com/forums/windows-vista-arena/33197-vista-pci-problems-2.html
1. Open command prompt (Administrator)
2. Type the following
bcdedit /set CONFIGACCESSPOLICY DISALLOWMMCONFIG
3. Exit command prompt
4. Reboot
I was only able to execute this command after doing this:
1. Start>Control Panel>User Accounts
2. Click on User Accounts
3. Turn User Account Control on or off
4. Turn it off
5. Restart
6. Type in the command at the command prompt ( use windows search on the bottom right above the windows start button, although it doesn't even say start anymore, it's just a windows sign)
7. restart
8. optionally after the computer recognizes the card, set the the User Account Control to ON again after the card installs.
Crazy, but it worked for a lot of ppl
good luck!
