New MSI 5900XT Owner - Which Drivers? MSI's or Nvidia?

Hi guys! I am a proud new owner of an MSI 5900XT card. But I do not know which drivers I should use. Do you recommend the MSI custom drivers or the reference Nvidia Drivers? Can I still use the MSI overclocking feature with the ref Drivers?
THANKS!

Brand new MSI P7NGM-Digital nVidia 730i freezes after driver installation

I have just finished installing Win XP 32bit OS and installed all drivers that came with the MSI disc.
Drivers installed : Chipset/SM BUS/Realtek LAN/Realtek HD audio/Realtek HD KB update/display drivers.
As sson as i boot into XP my system will freeze completely after 2-5 mins. Since this is a completely fresh install I strongly suspect this is a driver issue but I cant figure out which one it is and why. I didnt some minor troubleshooting like uinstalling drivers one by one to find out the guilty but it seems all of them are!
System hasnt frozen in Safe mode/VGA mode and after uninstalling all drivers in normal mode.
Now iam downloading drivers straight fromm the net.
Has any1 gone thru this issue before ?

guys, i need some help here.
The problem has been narrowed down to display drivers. Even the latest ones from this website which come bundled in Chipset drivers, freezeup the system after booting into Windows in normal mode.
Ofcrse the system hasnt yet frozen up in Safe mode or w/o the display drivers , like now.
Also, one thing i noticed last time it froze after installing display drivers seperately from this website, when it froze ig gave a loud high frequecy continous beep.
How do i solve this problem, shld i try nvidi drivers staight from nvidia?

MSI blutetooth BToes (old) - which drivers for Win XP SP3?

Hello,
I'm using old Btoes bluetooth dongle and it's working fine on my old Win XP. Please help me which driver to download for the PC which runs on Win XP SP3?
This is my dongle: http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=116&maincat_no=131&cat2_no=251&cat3_no=257
I had lots of problem while installing it, so please help me if you were using the exact model. First of all, Windows tends to install its drivers and it works that way as well, but I can not make a serial connection to desired bluetooth device.
I've tried using Win XP SP2 drivers listed here: http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=131&prod_no=116.
However, it didn't work, I can not recall why. I had to reinstall the whole Windows after it. On the other computer it demanded presence of Btoes USB dongle in a USB port in order to boot Win. Like I said, lots of problems. It ended by installing the oldest drivers which came with the CD. Some of the options just don't work.
Finally, when I take a look at properties, it says "Cambrige Sillicon Radio" version (I don't know how to UL a pic).
I have a clean Win XP SP3 installation and don't want to ruin it -- which drivers to install and how? Thanks a lot!

In all honesty, I would say yes, a more recent Bluetooth dongle will most probably be a lot easier for you to set up and use. For example, I use the built-in Bluetooth modules in my MSI Wind and Media Live, both of which use Toshiba hardware, and they are a dream to set up and use, compared to an old Trust bluetooth USB adapter I used some years back. They just work, full stop!
Then I would follow your advice, and not try to use this Btoes 1.0 any more. Can you suggest me which one to purchase (just to be simple to install, uninstall, work fine with XP SP3 and, well, Win 7). Please note I might then use the new dongle for BT headset (which requires better speed?). Thank you.
Previous discussion on Btoes 1.0 is over, thank you, all of you guys!

Problem With New Msi Fx 5900xt SOLVED

I JUST OPEN THE BOX AND INSTALL MY BRAND NEW FX 5900XT (YES I MANAGE TO SELL THE FX5700 TO A FRIEND ) AND MAKE IT RUN NICE :biggthumbsup:BUT HAVE TWO ISSUES
1. CAN'T OVERCLOK
2. I DID NOT FIND WHERE THE MONITOR TU TEMP AND FAN RPM ARE
I INSTALL 3D TURBO AND THERES NOTHING ABOUT RPM AND TEMP.
AND AFTER TWO HOURS OF USE THE SCREEN FILL WITH DOTS AND THE MACHINE REBOOT

To XSOFT,
I believe you have exactly the same problem as me !
Due to this excellent thread I worked out that my PSU was seriously Underpowered as is yours ! Did you realise that your Power Supply Unit is only kicking out 330.5 watts ? meaning to operate at its 'safe' max which is 70% you are only provided with 231.35 WATTS ! Anything over 70% overheats everything attached to your psu apparently !
This FX5900XT uses 70 odd all on its own ! Here are the Links I found amazingly helpfull.
http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threadid=31880
Living in the Uk though I dont have access to buying an Enermax PSU which is highly recommended. Work out using these links what your system requires as a minimum and then add 30%. That is the figure that you need your PSU to kick out at 70% efficiency. I have upgraded to the best 550pwatt psu I can find in my area and it barely covers my min req of 372 watts !

Is new MSI K9A2 Platinum DOA?

Bought a new MSI K9A2 Platinum Version 1 MOBO off eBay, installed with spacers between board and case and installed my current hardware. Power came on but, pc would not post. Monitor kept showing no signal, power and HD LED came on for 1 to 2 seconds and Green and White LEDs on MB came on and stayed on. So I cleared CMOS, took out one video card and NIC so was pretty much down to bare minimum, one video card, one stick ram, CPU, HD (SATA) and MOBO but, still suffered same issue. Is MOBO DOA?
Existing Hardware from my PC:
Antec Neopower 500 (500 watts) power supply
AMD Athlon X2 6000+ (3.02 GHz) (Windsor, 90nm, AM2 (940))
Cooler Master Aquagate Viva CPU Liquid Cooling System
2 x 1 GB RAM Mushkin: (XP2-8500, Part Number: 996535)
1066MHz Latency: 5-5-4-12 Parity: Unbuffered
Voltage: 2.2-2.35V Pins: 240
Module: 128Mx64 Chip: 64x8
2 X ATI Radeon 1950 GT running in Crossfire mode (installed both cards in dark blue ports)
Fujitsu 300 GB HD SATA
Sony DVD RW
Bigfoot NIC model: Killer M1
ATX Case with 4 X 90 MM Case fans
Initially thought could be the video cards but, owner's guide and MSI Tech Support state that K9A2 can support up to 16X, so I assume that also means it support PCIe 1.0 as well as PCIe 2.0.
Have read on MSI forum that power could be the issue but, tend to believe if I take it down to bare minimum (CPU, CPU Cooler, 1 Stick of Ram, 1 Video Card, HD (SATA), 2 X 90mm case fans and MOBO) that it should have booted up at the point.
Link to new board, MSI K9A2 Platinum, specs: http://us.msi.com/product/p_spec.asp...tinum&class=mb
Link to MOBO owner's guide on MSI, http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=do...1&prod_no=1332
Any help or ideas?
Thanks in advance

Boombox,
Good morning and thanks for putting my concerns to rest, like I said before, I have to upgrade a part at time. Next piece is AMD Phenom II X4 955 (hopefully gets here NLT Tuesday) with RAM I purchased last month and did not want to fry them first time I boot up the system. Plus I am on Day 2 since switch out of my K9A and still no issues
Also I must weigh in on MSI's RMA process, overall the process is pretty smooth, my issue is with the replacement MOBO. Guess after they tested my old MOBO (NEW OUT OF THE BOX), they had to replace it. Replacement board was USED (assuming until failure by previous owner) and had some "Cosmetic issues", 1. Copper Cooling tube is slightly crushed not sure what that does to air flow and 2. Half of the IDE pins were bent, I can't see thing in front of me, so I had to take a digital picture of IDE plug and blow up so I could see which way to bend them back. Figure there would be some sort of QC before return but, guess not......
Assuming since it all relates to this post, once I install CPU and RAM will let those that have taken time out of their day to help me, know what my latest status is. Again Thanks to all of you, hopefully I can pay back your help in the future.

My New MSI Mobo Will Not Speak Up!

I just replaced the motherboard in my computer with a new MSI P4M900M2-L motherboard (VIA Chipset). I did a "repair" install of Windows, re-activated it, and everything in the system is now working fine except...the integrated sound function on the mobo does not work. I've downloaded and successfully installed all recommended drivers from MSI website using "Live Update Online" feature. Also downloaded and ran MSI InfoView XP utility. All looks good on this utility except the SOUND tab which says "Sound Card Not Detected!". The Windows Device Manager shows an "Audio Device on High Definition Audio Bus" but its properties sheet says "No Drivers are installed for this device". If you click on the "Update Driver..." button on the Properties "Driver" tab, nothing at all happens. All the Driver info on this tab shows either "Not Available" or "Unknown".
I connected the motherboard on a non-conducting surface outside the case. Same result; MSI InfoView utility reports "Sound Card Not Detected". I have also verified that the MB mounting holes line up correctly with the case mounting standoffs - no shorts.
On advice from MSI support, I RMA returned the board to the vendor and they sent me a new one - same model, P4M900M2. I installed the new one and...same problem! Everything else works perfectly. I went through the process again of updating drivers using MSI's Live Update Online. It scanned my system and said all drivers were up-to-date. I loaded the CD-ROM that came with the mobo and clicked on the RealTek Driver button, but nothing at all happened. I browsed the CD and in the "Sound" folder found two setups - one for VIA HD and one for RealTek. Tried running the RealTek setup; it went partway through and then said "Install Realtek HD Audio Driver Failure!!". (Thanks for all the useful info!) Then tried the VIA HD setup. It ran a bit & then said "ERROR - We can't find HD audio device". So nothing worked.
It seems quite unlikely that I received two defective motherboards in a row, each with the exact same defect !!?? Seems like there must be some driver or setting or jumper or something that's preventing the sound function from being recognized. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Joy! My problem is solved. I received the following from MSI Technical Support (it took them two tries, unfortunately; first they concluded that the motherboard was bad and told me to RMA it, which I did; only to have exact same problem with 2nd board.) Anyway, this solution worked like a charm. The key, apparently, is deleting that Microsoft UAA HD Audio driver under System Devices.
Hope this info may help some other poor soul out there fighting the same problem.
Thanks to Bosskiller and Del UK for all the suggestions.
Here's what tech support sent:
Be sure the Microsoft HD UAA patch has been applied: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/888111/en-us ** The Microsoft HD UAA device drivers interfere with the Realtek drivers and prevent them from loading. The cure is to 1) Open the control panel and launch System 2) Click on the Hardware tab and then launch the Device manager. 3) Go to the bottom and click on System Devices 4) Look for Microsoft UAA HD Audio driver. 5) Right mouse click on it and first disable the driver, and then unload it. 6) Reboot the machine. 7) There should be no problem now with loading the HD audio drivers. Please check and be sure the bios setup has the on board audio setting been set to enable or Auto. Please have all on board audio header removed from any case front audio or other adapter connections and only connect the speaker/headset to the rear audio output port (green) and retest. Please test out the mb and components outside the case with mb box to support the board. This can prevent any short or grounding problem to the mb which can cause audio to stop working as well.

HELP ! System freezes now with new MSI GeForce 6600GT AGP

Any/All help is greatly appreciated... this is driving me crazy.
Just installed a new MSI 6600GT AGP card. Windows/Apps work fine.. but system keeps freezing (disabling keyboard as well) when running certain games (3D?) like Medal of Honor, Prince of Perisa, SplinterCell. Also, freezes on 3DMark01SE benchmark software. What strange is 3DMark2K5 ran fine.. and returned a respectable score (3078). I've tried unistalling/re-installing latest MSI drivers (71.22), Nvidia's 66.93, and removing nVidia's GART drivers. I've also disconnected other hardware to allieviate PSU constraints. I've uninstalled/re-installed 6600GT card and molex power connector on card. My system specs are below:
Motherboard = ASUS Focus A7N8X-LA, BIOS=American Megatrend 3.07, Chipset = nVidia nForce2
MSI GeForce 6600GT 128 AGP
1Gb Ram
200Gb Maxtor 8mb buffer HD
ASUS E616P1 DVD-ROM
RICOH MP5240A DVD+RW
Enermax EG375P-VE SFMA PSU (has separate 12V rails)
Any suggestions as to what else to try? Getting ready to RMA this card.

Question
I just got a K8 series MB , and your A6600GT 128MB VGA , every time when I quit the 3D games ,
the system gave me a blue screen and then restart the system. I already update the VGA driver and MB
driver but no luck , what can I do?
Answer
If your system are WinXP + SP2 , We suggest you to disable DEP function.
Please follow below steps to disable the DEP. (See below picture)
1. First , Select “Advanced” under “System Properties”
2. Choose “Settings” under “Startup and Recovery”
3. Click “ Edit “ , then you can edit “boot.ini” file.
4. Change “/NoExecute=OptIn” as “/execute” (See below red square in step4)
5. Then save the boot.ini file and restart the system.
6. After rebooting , the DEP function will be disable.
Other information please see below link :

http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/info/bootini.shtml
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/sp2mempr.mspx
• /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN Enables DEP for core system images and those specified in the DEP
configuration dialog.
• /NOEXECUTE=OPTOUT Enables DEP for all images except those specified in the DEP
configuration dialog.
• /NOEXECUTE=ALWAYSON Enables DEP on all images.
• /NOEXECUTE=ALWAYSOFF Disables DEP.
Configuration Description
OptIn
(default configuration)
On systems with processors capable of hardware-enforced DEP, DEP is
enabled by default for limited system binaries and applications that
“opt-in,”
With this option, only Windows system binaries are covered by DEP by
default.
OptOut DEP is enabled by default for all processes. Users can manually create
a list of specific applications which do not have DEP applied using
System in Control Panel. IT Pros and Independent Software Vendors
(ISVs) can use the Application Compatibility Toolkit to opt-out one or
more applications from DEP protection. System Compatibility Fixes
(“shims”) for DEP do take effect.
AlwaysOn This provides full DEP coverage for the entire system. All processes
always run with DEP applied. The exceptions list for exempting
specific applications from DEP protection is not available. System
Compatibility Fixes (“shims”) for DEP do not take effect. Applications
which have been opted-out using the Application Compatibility Toolkit
run with DEP applied.
AlwaysOff This does not provide any DEP coverage for any part of the system,
regardless of hardware DEP support. The processor does not run in
PAE mode unless the /PAE option is present in the boot entry.
Yes let us know how it goes. Hopefully well.

MSI update doesnt recognize new MSI x800 XT PE card

Somethin kinda strange last night... I am one of the VERY few proud owners of the new MSI x800 XT PE video cards. Along with everything else is the normal autoupdate software for keeping everything up to date.
I already have is as I am running the MSI Neo 2 motherboard (see sig.).
The strange thing though is that it didnt recognize the card at all! It came back with an error when I had it look for video card updates that the card wasnt recognized or supported.

Nope.. no problems. 8) Just thought it interesting... I also get some really strange behavior out of the 4.9 beta drivers, but I read what I see is the same as almost everyone with the XT card regardless of branding. So it must just be a driver bug.
The cool thing is my 3Dmark score.. I was 6748 previously... just tested at 12,318!

New MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R, WinXP BSOD

I just got and installed the MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R. I have Libranet linux 2.8.1 which I can boot into (fast as heck too). When I try to boot into window, I get a BSOD with nothing very descriptive in it except to try chkdsk /f. I have tried playing with the various bios settings with no luck. Is this an instance where I need to reinstall XP? :(
System:
P4 2.4 533
Kingston PC2700 (DDR333)
Nvidia TI4600
Creative Audigy
Lite-On 52-24-52 cd-rw
Nothing OC'd
Ed

Hopefully you DONT have both OS'S on the same partition? Do you. #2 Do you have BIOS option BOOT TO OTHER OS ENABLED? #3 There has been a lot of people having problems with FRESH WINDOWS XP INSTALL and CREATIVE AUDIGY CARDS! If you HAVE REINSTALL WINDOWS XP REMOVE SOUND CARD FIRST!! After you are done PLUG IN CARD, DO NOT USE NEW HARDWARE WIZARD. INSTALL DRIVERS MANUALLY. Then go to creative website and DOWNLOAD PCI LATENCY PATCH!! Other then that WE need more INFO!..Sean REILLY875

New MSI GT Dominator PRO 890, screen goes black, system freezes

Hey guys, I have a new msi dominator gt70 890. While running 3d mark, my computer screen just went black. It took a while but after hitting enough buttons I finally got back to the desktop view. But trackpad nor mouse would work. I had hwinfo and hw monitor running in the background and the values kept changing, but system was totally unresponsive. I had to shut it down by unplugging from wall, and taking out the battery. I kept hitting/holding power button, but wouldn't do anything but sometimes put computer to sleep.
Then again while I was running realbench same thing. Then posting here on this forum, it happened again.
Is this a common problem, will a driver update or setting fix this. Is the computer bad? Does anyone else have this happen or even better know how to fix it.

First I was running on the NVidia gpu, with current drivers. Second time I believe NVidia as well. Third and then on were all intel drivers. Driver for intel I don't know for sure, I know I had intel utilitiy ran and searched for driver updates and didn't find any.
I have since then, swapped out hhd for ssd, used the usb with recovery on it to install windows. Swapped out the 12gb ram for 32 gb corsair vengeance, changed out thermal paste and used formula 7 nano diamond thermal compound.
Since then, I have just go up and running after installing windows. Downloading windows updates now, got NVidia drivers up to date, took off nortan, running furmark 720p continuous test now to check gpu temps, whjich are still 90-93c more around 91c. Which same as before so no difference in thermal compound, except I believe that the 880m gets throttled around 92-93c if im not mistaken, so since im at that barrior im not sure if gpu temps are better or not. Never tried gaming as it takes to long to dl and right now ive got other things. will be d/l intel extreme tuning utility and running that, to compare with cpu temps. Those were around 82c on stock paste, I should see a better/worse number there as thermal throttle is 100c which is way over where I am.
I also have 3dmark downloading right now, il run that next, and compare with scores from before to determine throttling, and I can also compare temps to before on stock paste, I took screen shots of it all.
As for black screen, nothing yet. So im really hoping that the new drive and windows install fixed whatever that was.
Is there a app or program that checks all msi programs for updates?

How to get and install the new MSI Bluetooth Software Package 1.4.3.3.

How to get and install the new MSI Bluetooth Software Package 1.4.3.3.
This little FAQ will only cover the new version of MSI Bluetooth Software Package.
First thing too do is unistall any older version of the MSI Bluetooth Software.
Do this through the Add/Remove program applet in your control panel.
There seams too be only through Live update you could get the new version of MSI Bluetooth Software Package.
If you can't see any enter for MSI Bluetooth Software in the Live driver section of Live update then you have too enter the following too your registry.
Create following code in Notepad and save it as MSILD.reg, then run the file.
;-->Code start
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MSI\Drivers\MSI Bluetooth Software]
"DrvSetup"="1"
"Version"="1.4.2.10"
;-->Code end
Rerun the Live update and hopefully you will now see a entry for MSI Bluetooth Software in Live driver section.
Install the new version of MSI Bluetooth Software and reboot your computer. Even if the setup program doesnt told you too doit.
After rebooting the computer you will see the Bluetooth icon in the taskbar. If it's Red then try too start the Bluetooth services by right click on the try icon and the only alternetiv there is.
If the Bluetooth services is asking for a valid licens.dat then you should do the following.
Surf to Jon's Bluetooth guide http://www.jonsguides.com./bluetooth/prepare.html and download the patcher from the link there.
Unzip the the patcher and then run the BTWPatcher.exe program.
Now the Bluetooth services will start and you will bee able too configure your own settings for the Bluetooth services.
If nothing of this work you could try the complete Bluetooth solution at Jon's gudie and install the IBM version of the same program. I havent test this solution and will not do soo.

I have the MS-6968 device and i want to use driver 1.4.x or 3.0.x. I found the driver 1.4.2.10 but i cannot find any WIDCOMMSecurity code.
So, can anyone give me a link for BTWPatcher.exe???
It cannot be found here (Jon's Bluetooth ) anymore.
Thanks

Problem with new MSI GeForce FX 5900

Just bought a new MSI GeForce FX 590 TD-128.
I removed previous drivers and video card, installed the new video card and attached the power cable, and booted my machine.
When I boot the machine I get no picture....just a blinking cursor in the top left hand side of the screen. I thought maybe it was a power supply issue (350W PSW), so I tried installing the video card in another machine with a 400W PSW. I get the same darn blinking cursor X(
Anyone have any ideas what causes this? Do I have a defective card?

Are both those boards AGP 3.0 ??
I have a Soyo Dragon K7V Dragon+ and a ECS K7S5A. The website for the Soyo board is:
http://www.soyo.com.tw/products/proddesc.php?id=37
It mentions a Universal AGP Pro Slot and support for AGP 1X/2X/4X...but no mention of AGP 3.0.
The ECS board is at:
http://www.ecs.com.tw/products/pd_spec.asp?product_id=192
and only mentions AGP 4X support.
Does the FX 5900 only work on the newer motherboards maybe?
Quote
If it doesn't work on any board then it might be bad, but 350w and 400w don't mean much so it's also possible you have a power problem.
Both power supplies are made by Antec. Seems unlikely that neither machine would even boot...but I've seen stranger things
Ideas?

Help: new MSI 970a-g46 not booting.

hello.
i searched this forum before posting but couldn't find a solution that worked, so i thought i'd post my issue and see if y'all could help. basically, after installing the mobo and all the parts, powering on the machine does nothing but spin the fans and illuminate phase 1 CPU light for a split second. then nothing. no beeps, no further activity.
i just purchased brand new:
MSI 970A-G46
AMD FX 8-Core
Ballistix 4GB DDR3 PC3-12800 (1 stick)
Diablotek EVO ATX midtower.
and i'm using these my old parts:
Themaltake Purepower 500 ATX 12V 2.0
Gigabyte G Force 8 Series (GV-NX86S256H) graphics card
an IDE PCI card (where my 160gb maxtor with the OS connects)
two SATA drives seagate 500GB and a WD 2TB
up untill i shut down my old system to build this one, everything was working fine.
after reading the forum, i've tried moving my RAM from slot 2 to each other slot. trying to boot each time had same result.
i tried to reseat the CPU chip, but went no further than taking the fan off and making sure the CPU pins were not visible. then pushed down on the fan with some force while i put it back. trying to boot had the same result.
i've tried to clear the CMOS, but honestly not sure if i did it right. moved the jumper over, then waited a bit and moved it back. tried booting after that, same result.
i'm hoping someone has a quick fix that might keep me from pulling the mobo back out and starting again.
(side question: if i do have to start again, do i need more heatsync themal goo or will the stuff already on the CPU still work since it's never turned on?)
thanks in advance for any help. if i can provide more info on my setup, please let me know.
this is my first build all on my own and it's having predictable results.

i searched and found i made a real rookie mistake. :(

2. Did you plug in the 4/8-pin CPU power connector located near the CPU socket? If the motherboard has 8 pins and your PSU only has 4 pins, you can use the 4-pin connector. The 4-pin connector USUALLY goes on the 4 pins located closest to the CPU. If the motherboard has an 8-pin connector with a cover over 4 pins, you can remove the cover and use an 8-pin plug if your power supply has one. This power connector provides power to the CPU. Your system has no chance of posting without this connector plugged in! Check your motherboard owners manual for more information about the CPU power connector. The CPU power connector is usually referred to as the "12v ATX" connector in the owners manual. This is easily the most common new-builder mistake.

wow. plugged in the 4 pin cpu power and it booted into bios. so thanks for the help and for listening.

New MSI GS70 2QE-066US STEALTH PRO BSOD

I am getting random bsod page fault in nonpaged area on my brand new MSI GS70 2QE-066US STEALTH PRO. It seems to happen once a day. I am not sure what is going on really i updated the killer network drivers from their website as there was newer ones out than what were on this notebook. I only did that a hour ago so i don't know if it fixed anything or not. I herd the killer driver can cause bsod so i thought i would try. Other forums lead me to believe it is a ram issue. I have only install some steam games wow and things like chrome on this notebook so far. I am trying to figure out if it is a hardware or software issue as i just got the notebook and would like to not have to send it in so i can use it.
Thanks in advance for your help.

New MSI 6200 TD256 card in a KT4 Ultra (via) board,no boot, no page, help please

Hello.
just bought a new MSI Nvidia 6200 TD256 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814127186) and I put it in my KT4 Ultra board (via chipset). I am using the newest bios (1.4) and Via 4in1 chipset drivers.
What happens is when I boot the machine, everything starts up, but I get no PAGE and the D-Bracket is hung at the "testing VGA bios this will print ..." (thats what it says in the manual).
Now, I've done the best I can to research this issue, but best I can guess is this is a bad card and I should just return it for a replacement... the card does look fine, I see no physical damage and it seemed to be properly shipped. I did read that kt4 boards don't support 3.3v AGP cards... but I'm not really sure what that means.
Anyways, if anyone has any insight on something I should try before I have to go through the return process that would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
-Cody

And did you uninstall old V.card before installing new ?
if it doesnt get to windows, that doesnt matter.
