No signal fromm video card

i upgraded from windows me to xp prof then i downloaded the latestdriver for the fx 5200 128mb installed it now my motherboard k7n2 delta won't touch any nvidia cards i went to pc world bought a new gforce fx5200 agp and it just says no video signal yet when i put my old 3dfx vodoo it boots straight away.so if i try any nvidia card it dosen,t even give me a screen to work off please advise

put the 3dfx card in the computer. then remove its driver, then go to:
http://www.driverheaven.net/cleaner/
to download Driver Cleaner, then run it.
Then put the new card in. Finally install the new driver for the new card from http://www.nvidia.com

  • P6n Diamond & GeForce 8800 GTS, No Signal from Video Card

    This is my first computer build. It has taken waaay to long and now I'm on my final step - Getting the video card to work.
    I am running the following:
    MSI P6N Diamond MoBo - Bios are set to the "optimal settings"

    Dell E207WFP LCD Monitor
    Windows XP Pro
    *I've updated windows with all their high priority updates, installed the drivers on the cd from MSI
    My problem: When I enable my video card and restart, I can hear the computer starting windows and I see the first load screen but then my monitor says - no signal, turns black and goes into powersaver mode.  The very limited manual from EVGA says: "Quite often this problem is caused by the integrated video card adapter not being disabled prior to installing the new PCI based viedo card"
    My question is this: Does the P6N have an intergrated video card that I should be turning off to get my video card to show? I ran a DxDiag and did not see one. Also, I did only saw one video adapter listed in the device manager.

  • Need help ASAP: No video card signal for neo4 plat

    I just bought a new case, motherboard, ram, video card, power supply, and CPU. i took my drives from my old Dell and placed them into this case and the MSI neo4 plat. motherboard (specs at the bottom). after getting it to post, i noticed there was no video. i triple checked for anything that wasn't hooked up or loose. everything seemed good. i'm using a VGA monitor. i looked at the D-bracket 2 and noticed that it had 3 red lights and one green in the lower right hand corner. in the manual this means no video signal... well obviously. what does this mean and how can i fix it? my video card's fan is working. i see no spot for a PCI express power input. any ideas? i use my computer a lot and need to do some things before i leave for vacation on the 15th. i'd like to resolve any issues before i leave so i can relax about it when i get back.
    thanks,
    Zack

    well it seems things have gotten worse, after taking out the ram the other day and putting it back in thinking it was a ram problem, which it turned out not to be, it is giving me a ram problem. i just snapped em in a few times in all possible configurations and nothing is changing.

  • No signal from second video card

    I'm resurrecting an ancient machine, putting Arch on it and making it useful again.
    The VGA output is flakey, not working at the highest resolution my monitor can support.  And I found an old PCI video card and threw it into the machine, hoping it would be better.  Trouble is, I get no signal at all from the second card.  Nothing sent to the monitor at all.
    Running lspci, I see both VGA cards:

  • 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?

  • New Video Card options

    I have a first generation MacPro with the ATI Radeon X1900 and I have been experiencing some issues. First, my computer has been making a lot of noise from a fan, and I have read in several places that this has often been the ATI video cards. Also, recently I have been experiencing some issues with rendering in my applications. I play World of Warcraft, and lately when it rains in the game, it starts looking fuzzy. It could be a problem with the software, but with the fan issue I am more inclined to just replace the card and hopefully fix both issues.
    About two months ago the signal from my Mac to my monitor gave out entirely. When that happened, I called the Apple Store and they told me any PCI-Express video card would be compatible, so I picked up an Nvidea GeForce 8800 GT. It did not fix the problem and I brought it into the Apple Store and they determined it was the video controller on the motherboard that caused the issue. However, they were not able to get the Nvidea card to work with my computer, so I just went back to the ATI card after that.
    So, after all that, my question is what Video cards are compatible with the first generation Mac Pro on OS X version 10.4.11, and are there extra steps I have to do to get the hardware to work? Are there drivers or software I need to download before swapping out the cards?
    Thank you,
    Tim

    Your choices are:
    X1900 for $399 if you stay with 10.4.11
    Radeon 3870 requires 10.5.4 retail $215
    8800GT requires 10.5.3 direct from Nvidia or Apple, two models, one for EFI64 (2008) and the one you want for 2006/7 EFI32 models.

  • New Video Card for G5 dual 2.3  PCIex running Matrox MXO box

    Greetings. I have an HDV project and purchased an MXO to allow viewing
    on external monitor. The MXO did not work with my GeForce 7800 video card
    and I spent over an hour with Matrox tech support and they also sent me
    a second MXO box. The CPU does not appear to see the MXO and we were unable to see any signal (i.e. color bars during set up)
    My question: Has anyone found a way to integrate
    MXO into a FCP set-up like mine? I'm running a G5 2.3 late, 6 gig ram,
    FCP 6.04 and this video card mentioned above. The second part of question:
    If I need to replace video card, has anyone done this with my particular G5 and had good success? I have found on the Matrox site that one user has put an
    ATI 1900x into his G5 and they also support a lesser card GeForce 6600. I do not
    want to take a step back with any modification and want to make sure my system which funs very smoothly now is not compromised. Thanks for any experience and insight into this.
    G5 dual 2.3 GeForce7800 Mac OS X (10.4.11)
    Go Back

    Thanks for this post/response. The 7800GT card I currently have was a build to order option and I assume was not flashed. I'd love to figure out if there is a
    way to get my current card to like the MXO box, or to install a new, equally fast video card that would allow me to use MXO. I may install an x1900 Mac Edition and see how it works but do want to hear from other late edition G5 owners that they have been happy with this card (running OS 10.4.11, Final Cut Pro).

  • Video card will not install properly

    Hi, I have an HP Pavillion a6120n. I am trying to install a Radion HD 5450 video card (view links below for pc and video card). I have upgraded my psu to an Ultra LSP 750w and disabled the on-board graphics. However, no matter which way I try to install the video card (while running the pc or not) and rebooting, my monitor says "No Signal Detected". Furthermore, when I try to install the software for the video card from the CD, it goes through the entire install process and says that it is complete but the file never shows up in the folder that it is supposed to. Basically, whenever the new video card is attached to the motherboard, the PC doesn't like it and I get no display.
    My BIOS version is 4/20/07. I can change the video setting to [PCI] or [On Board] but nothing more than that, like PCIE. Is there a new BIOS version that I haven't found?
    Should I be looking at a different video card?  Is this one not compatable for some reason?
    Any ideas here? I'm stumped.
    Thanks so much for your help.  Glad HP does this.

    I dont see any reason why that card wont work.
    Make sure the card is seated and the lock on the tail end of the card is engaged.
    PCIe slots are sometimes a little tricky getting seated.
    Also make sure it is not binding against the back plate on the computers chassis
    where the ports come out the back. It sould seat comfortably.

  • Resetting a video card?  (ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT)

    So here's my issue. I am trying to connect a secondary monitor to my mac pro (10.5.8). The card in the machine is a ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT. The only port that seems to work on the card is "#2" (or the left port while looking at the card from the back of the machine).
    Both monitors work when plugged into #2 so I know the problem is not with the monitors/cables. This leads me to believe the card has some issues. I used a secondary screen on this machine about a month ago and had no problems. Not to say the card isn't bad, but is there any way to reset this card or flush out some sort of cash/preference to see if that works?
    I have done the obvious "Detect Displays", and have flushed the PRAM of the machine, I've tried booting it up with no screens, just one screen, etc. I've tried booting with one screen hooked up to port #1 and it never get any signal so I'm thinking it's a dead port unless I can somehow "refresh" this. System Profiler just shows whichever screen is connected to port #2 and "No display connected" for whatever is in port #1
    Any ideas? I've done just about everything I can think of. I tried installing the firmware update too for the card, but on trying to do so it said that I couldn't because I was already running the latest firmware.

    ok walter, we gonna help you no problem.  maybe try shutting down your mac pro and
    using some compressed air and clean that out, especially the  ATI Radeon  2600. Dust bunnies love the video cards. then restart, open up disk utility and repair permissions
    if you can. If not,  then yes, your video card is probably dying. Go to the Apple at the corner of your screen and click on "About this Mac" and it should tell you what kind of Mac Pro you have. As far as I know the ATI 5770 would be a good replacement for your ATI 2600. Apparently they were known to collect dust pretty easily, or so I was told. do you have Applecare? otherwise, I think it's gonna be around $300. Luckily installation isn't too hard. Oh, and you're probably going to need to have 10.6 already installed on your Mac Pro, I think
    well, enough

  • Two Video Cards in Console?

    Hi,  I apologize if this may be kind of a dumb question;  I have two video cards; an ATI and an NVIDIA card;  My question is fairly basic; X11 aside, should I be able to plug both video cards in and get the 'console' to display by default out of both cards?  Do I have to do anything special to setup the second card for console (i.e non-X)?  I know the OS is detecting both cards because they show up in lspci.  The second card (the card in question), also shows up in dmesg.  I dont' care if the same video signal is displayed on the second monitor; I just want it to display *something*; I am currently not getting any signal out of it. 
    Dan Sullivan

    The most promising way would be to get framebuffer consoles on both cards. For the secondary card, you will have to load a GPU specific driver that has kernel modesetting. For the primary card, you can either do this or load a generic one like uvesafb. Once you have /dev/fb0 and /dev/fb1 you can move consoles from the primary card to the secondary card using con2fb. I'm not sure if it's in an Arch package but its a C file that has been floating around the fbdev community: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions … ng-454625/

  • ATI 5770 1GB Video Card For Mac Pro dvi hdmi cable

    I am sending video signal over a 50FT HDMI To DVI from my Mac Pro (3,1) via ATI 5770 1GB Video Card For Mac Pro (5.0 GT/s) (181062917108) and I cannot get a constant signal to my TV. The signal stays on for a few seconds or several hours or my TV (Samsung) says there is no signal or I get just a gray static screen.
    I never had a problem before with my previous video card the 512MB nVidia GeForce 8800GT with a 25ft long cable. Any ideas people?

    A cable of about 5 meters (16 ft) can be manufactured to Category 1 specifications easily and inexpensively by using 28 AWG (0.081 mm²) conductors.[114] With better quality construction and materials, including 24 AWG (0.205 mm²) conductors, an HDMI cable can reach lengths of up to 15 meters (49 ft).[114]
    from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI
    You may need a higher-quality cable or a lower resolution for your display to make this work without an HDMI Repeater.

  • IBM video cards?

    Need a video card to connect two additional displays (30”and 23”) Question: are any of the IBM cards with two DVI outputs comparable with Mac? They seem considerably less $$…

    The reason that you can't use an x86 card on a PowerPC Macintosh is related to different video BIOS on the two platforms.
    PowerPC and x86 read data in reverse methods, called big endian and little endian. Basically this determines which end of a bit is the most significant digit. If a hardware bus sends a signal 11110000, the PowerPC sees this as 11110000, but the x86 CPU reads this as 00001111. NOTE: A little inaccuracy saves a lot of explanation.
    Some vendors do ship cards that work on both platforms, notably ATI's recent 9600 PC+Mac Edition retailing for $200 USD. This card has both big endian and little endian video BIOS.
    One might hope that the Intellitosh hardware will allow standard x86 video cards to work on Apple hardware, but based on historical evidence of Apple's behavior, this may not be a safe assumption.

  • Mixing Video Cards in MacPro

    I have the Apple ATI X1900 powering two 24" Dell monitors for editing and want to add an Apple Geforce 7300 for sending VGA to a 32" LCD TV (3rd monitor) for clients to view my work. Using a firewire device for the TV works for FinalCut Pro but does not work for other programs such as Safari or PowerPoint.
    The Mac Pro only has three video card options... Geforce 7800 GT, ATI X1900 XT and the GeForce Quadro FX 4500. Apple supports multiple Geforce 7800 GT cards but does not have any info about mixing cards at this time. The problem is that the Geforce will have to be set to 8 lanes so the ATI can use 16 lanes. Has anyone tried this with success?

    I'd talk to the mfrs.
    There are more specific hardware forums here on apple.com, all over the Net, too.
    We use simultaneous feed to several monitors on occasion. We find this much more convenient than using three or more discrete monitor spaces. I'm not sure that the box is (it magically appears from our IT people when needed) but it seems to be a simple scalar. It simply intercepts the monitor signal and creates two outputs.

  • I have 2 displays running off the same video card.

    I have 2 monitors, 48" Plasma tvs. I'm running a Mac Pro. With a video card upgrade, we ran the video signal to 1 monitor. It ran fine. Then we bought a splitter and split the HDMI signal to run to 2 tvs. The Monitors began todisconnect and reconnect from the Mac Pro. We have changed the HDMI cables to Monster cables, shortened the wires to make them as short as possible, and nothing will stop the monitors disconnects and reconnects from the Mac Pro. We even unplugged 1 monitor and the other monitor STILL disconnects and reconnects. But, when we removed the splitter, it works fine. So we replaced the splitter and it still didn't work. My thoughts are either the splitter is the problem, or we need something to boost the signal. What are you thoughts? Is this even possible?
    Chris

    If you are using a 5x70 card (you didn't specify the card) then just get two mini-displayport to HDMI adaptors and connect the two TVs.  You shouldn't be trying to split the HDMI signal from a single port (at least with a passive splitter).  And you don't need expensive cables either (a good place for cables is www.monoprice.com).  Configure the monitors with the Displays preference pane to run mirrored and you will have the same effect you were trying to achieve with a splitter, i.e., both monitors showing the same picture. 
    Note, for only two monitors on 5x70's I don't believe a active adaptor is necessary.

Maybe you are looking for
