My computer isnt detecting my video card

specs:
athlon 1800+
MSI nvidia gefore TI 4200 128mb
768 DDR ram
western digital 80 gig hard drive
MSI KT6 Delta-SR motherboard
i've been getting a lot of errors at random times with my nforce2 audio drive so i thought i'd uninstall my drivers and install newer nvidia utility drivers. everything was going fine with the uninstallation and after my computer rebooted after the uninstallation process i downloaded the newer drivers from the nvidia website and i was able to install my audio and my ethernet but for some reason my video card kept giving a error saying that the graphics card that i was trying to install cannot be detected so it'll stop with the installation. so i thought maybe the newest drive was faulty with my video card since its a little old. so i got the older drivers and i installed them and i didnt get any errors and everything seemed like it was installed. after the rebooted i checked my display settings and i couldnt change my resolution. i checked the adaptor tab in the advanced settings and its blank and under properties it just says "VgaSave" i've tried almost everything from my current computer knowledge with no luck. i've tried going in to add hardware and pointing to my video driver folder, etc. but nothing works. any solution?
and sorry if my story is long and doesnt make sense. its 5:30am here and i've been up trying to fix this for hours. thanks in ad

I have CC and while attempting Light Effects, the Light Effects Layer will appear in the layers panel, but the option bar will not appear and neither will the Properties panel. All my preferences are set correct, and my computer has a compatible video card and RAM. Please help!
I tried to delete the layer attempt again. I am in a Photoshop class, but the work is all online, so all my teacher is going to do is send me to this site. I am trying to edit a photo for this class, and without this working, i go to filter>render>light effects. the bar and panel will pop up for about 2 seconds, then disappear. How do i get the options bar and properties panel to display?

I was about to suggest resetting LE from the Workspace drop-down top right corner, but if you can't see the Options Bar, I guess that is not going to happen. The normal Tool reset is grey out for LE, so it might be a case of resetting Preferences.

MacBook no longer detects my video card?

I have (had?) a Intel GMAx3100 on my MacBook, but after starting up today and having the standard background and noticing slight coloration differences, I checked the Graphics/Display tab in the system profiler, and it now says "Type: Display" instead of listing my normal card, and I can no longer change screen resolutions.
I checked my Extensions folder, and the AppleIntelGMAX3100 drivers and kexts were no longer there, so I copied them back from my ExtensionsBackups folder, and then my computer would no longer boot up, except in safe mode.
What's going on here? Is there any way I can download these drivers again, or whatever is needed? I'm so confused as to why this happened.

First step is to reset PRAM
■ Shut down your computer. Turn the computer back on and immediately hold down Command-Option-P-R, continuing to press until you hear the startup sound for the second time. This resets the computer’s parameter random-access memory (PRAM).
IMPORTANT: Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.

My computer isnt detecting my camera

i just got a macbook pro, and i have a sony mini dv camera. I used to use this camera to edit movies on my old computer, but when i plug it into my macbook with a firewire, the computer doesn't even detect a camera. It doesnt sense any camera at all. How do i get it to work?

Hi Christina
May be You find some help in my list:
Mac:
- hardware
◊ Slow hard disk (fragmented: repair permissions, repair hard disk, use a faster hard disk)
◊ Disconnect all other ext devices (FW and USB) exept Camera (and keyboard + mouse) and try again
◊ Reset PRAM
◊ Bad RAM-chips
◊ disconnect Mac from powerline (not just switch off, really plug out) for a few minutes to reset FW ports
- software
◊ File-Vault is on - turn it off
◊ Something is occupying the CPU/System, like other programs, Internet etc.
◊ Do You have desktop pictures or screen or energy-savers active? Try turning them off.
◊ Updating - OS has to be a clean install - not an update eg from X.3.x to X.4.x (no good) OS X.4.0-5 needs a clean install to work (I use X.3.9)
◊ Updating QT and/or other updates (to 7 needs v6 to be cleaned out first) QT v.7.0.0-4 needs a clean install to work (I use 6.5.2)
◊ Have you tried the crazy fix: Open GarageBand, play a few notes, close it and reopen iMovie. The camera should import fine now. Sue/SDillini
◊ Running iDVD at the same time as iMovie can cause problems: (Lennart Thelander)
◊ If You also have installed FinalCut Express/pro there are possibly problems with this
iMovie:
◊ remove bookmarks in iMovie project
◊ Trash: com.apple.iMovie.plist and com.apple.iMovie3.plist : files (Xinram)
Connection:
◊ don’t Daisy chain Camcorder <--> external hard disk <--> Mac
◊ FW-wire cable, is it OK?
◊ USB/USB2 is NO GO !
Camera:
◊ The Camera is set to VTR ? (not as when You ”film” record with it)
◊ You may be need to go to the Camera menu and select digital out.
◊ defective camera TRY IT ON ANOTHER MAC ! (if the A/D chip in the camera is harmed then it will say in iMovie that the camera is connected and You can forward rep. backward the tape but there will be no picture or sound just the blue screen).
◊ connect camera to power-line, not battery-only....(Karsten Schlüter)
◊ Canons don't allow daisychaining on firewire, make it "only device" on port (Karsten Schlüter)
◊ Cheque the menu on Your Camera so that it communicates with the FW digitally to Your Mac
◊ Date and Time is correct on Your Camera ?
Tape:
◊ Drop outs on the miniDV-tape - make a camera to camera copy on a tape which You have previous recorded with a time code (dummy recording).
◊ Break in the time-code on the miniDV tape (make a camera to camera copy on a tape which is pre-recorded with nothing/anything so that the tape has a time-code from beginning to the end)
◊ If You recorded in LP-mode (90 min on a standard 60 min tape with 12-bit sound). Try to change in iMovie pref. to import but not as individual clips. If this doesn’t work You have to make a Camera to Camera copy with the receiving Camera set to SP-mode and 16-bit sound.

MOVED: MSI k9n6pgm2-v2 doesnt detect my video card

This topic has been moved to AMD64 nVidia boards.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=148562.0

The onboard should turn itself off when the card is inserted.
You don't need to do anything.
Try the card in a different system or return it, as it should work right out of the box.

Detect video card in 32 and 64 bit.

How can I get both the 32 and 64 bit versions of CS6 to detect my graphic processor (AMD Radeon HD7700) for GPU usage in Win 7 ? Cuiurently, it is only seen in 64 bit.

Thanks again Chris.
I again completely uninstalled the AMD Catalyst and drivers and reinstalled the latest one from their site. I am still unable to select Again, the card is not detected in the 32 bit version of CS6 and is readily available in 64 bit. Also very interesting is what the System info shows. i.e. Windows XP and yet I installed the lastest version of CS after I had updated to Win 7 on a new computer.
Here's what the system info shows in CS 6 32 bitr ..

In my powerful mind, it appears that CS will only see the card in the 64 bit version. Not that it's a big problem with easy work-arounds but it puzzles me and I was hoping that someone else has had a similar experince and was willing to chime in.
Appreciate your time.

Cannot Detect Video card (Radeon 6750m)

Dear sir,
I would like to know why my laptop cannot detect my video card (Radeon 6750m). It only shows the built in graphic card intel. I already try to use system restore and reset to original factory mode. It will appear but after updating my drivers and reboot my laptop. My laptop cannot detect again the video card.
Please help me resolve this problem,
for you reference
http://tinypic.com/r/2it67ex/8
This question was solved.
View Solution.

You will have to enable the Radeon HD adapter by using the Catalyst Control Center.
Once you do that the adapter will appear in the Device manager.
If you are using the Intel HD graphics, only the Intel graphics will be seen in the Device Manager.
I know that may sound strange, but it is one of the pecularities of having a switchable graphics capable notebook.
The following URL goes to an overview of switchable graphics. Take a few minutes and read it. It should help make understanding it simpler.
http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dv4-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-series/5048648/model/5...
Do not instal the Intel graphics driver seperately!
Doing that breaks the switchable graphics feature.
Only install the HP ADM ATI graphics softpaq. It will install both drivers automatically and let you use the switchable graphics featrure og your notebook.

GeForce4 TI Video Card Not Recognized Anymore?

For about almost a year, the fan on the GeForce4 TI video card would occasionally make a grinding noise, although it has always been easily fixed by lightly sticking a finger on the fan to stop it for a second and it would go back to normal.
However, about a month ago this little fix stopped working. The grinding noise was unbearable. After searching the Internet for a few minutes, I found out that I wasn't the only one suffering from this problem, and some even offered tips on how to replace the fan.
I followed the steps very carefully and made sure the card was not harmed. After installing the new fan, which was very easy, I stuck it back into the Power Mac and boot it up. However the monitor didn't find a signal.
I was glad that I installed Remote Desktop on the Power Mac so I was able to connect to it and see what's going on. I opened Apple System Profiler and noticed that the computer isn't properly recognizing the graphics card anymore! Instead of the very detailed information I'm used to seeing, this is what I saw below:
pci10de,a:
Type: VGA-Compatible Controller
Bus: AGP
Slot: SLOT-1
Vendor: nVIDIA (0x10de)
Device ID: 0x252
Revision ID: 0x00a3
I have no clue what this means as it seems like the computer still recognizes A video card. Also this also gave me the impression that the Power Mac is missing the drivers, but that's impossible as I haven't touched the software on the hard drive and nVidia drivers are part of OS X.
If the card is broken then fine, I'll take my losses and buy a new one as I would hate to just throw the computer away since it still more than fulfill my needs. But I just hope the AGP slot isn't broken.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Just for clarification:
You have two systems based on the same MS-7008 mainboard, correct? Both use the same BIOS Version?
In one system, the card is functioning, running in AGP 3.0 Mode x8 and in the other, same mainboard model, what are the symptoms of "video card not recognized" besides the AGP 2.0 Mode x4 limitation?
I mean, if you can see the BIOS Setup, the card is putting something out on the screen, right?

Desktop is not defaulting to PCI Express video card

Installed a Nvidia GTX 560TI w/appropriate power supply AFTER disabling secure boot and enabling legacy support. The computer booted to the video card after the second try reboot, drivers successfully installed. Later after attempting to wake the computer from sleep it has defaulted back to the onboard video WITHOUT restarting. Now will not recognize PCI express card.

Hi,
What power supply are your using? The stardard HP 460 watt power supply is insufficient for the NVIDIA 560 TI as it requires two 6 pin PCI-E power connectors.
Go back into the BIOS and make sure that Legacy mode is enabled and Secure boot is disabled. Save the changes and power off. Now power up and see if the system recognizes the discrete video card.
BTW - the PC needs to completely power down and back up before the BIOS will rescan for hardware changes.

Photoshop Elements 10 Open GL 2.0 video card requirement.

I understand that in order to resize photos taken with a cell phone, as well as other more complex functions, my computer must have a video card that supports Open GL 2.0 video card with 256 MB dedicated video ram. Can someone suggest reliable manufacturers?
Thanks for suggestions.

I don't think you need any open gl for the editor in elements 10, just for the on screen slideshow of your photos in the organizer if you want certain transition effects.
If your talking about premiere elements 10, then that may be so.

PE 13 crashes due to incompatible video driver detected. Running on Win 7 SP1 with ATI 540v video card/driver. Deleting bad driver file in adobe program data does not fix the problem, it simply replaces the text file and crashes again. My video driver

PE 13 crashes due to incompatible video driver detected. Running on Win 7 SP1 with ATI 540v video card/driver. Deleting bad driver file in adobe program data does not fix the problem, it simply replaces the text file and crashes again. My video driver is just fine. Any help out there?

Your video card driver may be fine for something, but just not compatible with Premiere Elements 13/13.1.
For those with the display card error, the answers include
a. assure your video card/graphics card driver version is up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card -
if necessary consider a driver roll back.
b. determine in Device Manager/Display Adapters if the computer is using 2 cards instead of 1
c. delete the BadDrivers.txt file
the rationale for that deletion is found in post 10 of the following older post...principle applies to 13 as well as 9.
Re: Premiere Elements 9 Tryout Serious Display Problem
Have you looked for computer ATI card settings that might be more compatible with Premiere Elements 13/13.1?
When is the program crashing - just opening a new project or rather crashing if editing a particular video format at the Timeline level?

I can use the onboard video card just fine.
I have a secondary power supply(Juicebox) that I have installed specifically to power the video card. So it's not a lack of power to the video card.

Any ideas?

Quote from: xmad on 16-May-12, 20:24:13
From New Egg:
Minimum of a 450 Watt power supply. (Minimum recommended power supply with +12 Volt current rating of 24 Amps.)
Your new Power supply: dual rail 18a
Perhaps you need to find a single rail psu? There are 2 psu's available for the xps a 750 and a 1k watt both have 12 v single rail as best i can tell.
Here is EVGA's tech support: I would contact them and go over you psu specs to verify.
Well I am not too proud to admit when I am wrong...
The PSU was the issue (as is the common issue with just about everyone that comes to this forum)
I purchased a Coolermaster 500W Single Rail PSU and it worked perfectly as soon as I plugged it in.
The Juice box I was using above was a 350W single rail but just wasn't enough even if it was dedicated solely to the Video Card.
Thanks all for your help - I truly appreciate the time you took to point me in the right direction.
Pro-Tip to the new guys looking at this - Single Rail vs Dual Rail makes a HUGE Difference. Check your power ratings with the MFG of your Video card.
