NVIDIA GeForce 9400 graphic driver.

Installed Windows XP Service Pack 2 on my iMac - installed the drivers then was told to rebooted and end up with 4 bits and 800x600 resolution after rebooting. I went to Device Manager and disabled the driver then the resolution and bits goes back to normal.. Help please? Need a driver that is working perfectly fine!

Try Nividia site.
I wouldn't disable, I would uninstall the driver; uninstall the program; and take a look at Driver Sweeper from http://www.guru3d.com (and tips) to remove and delete graphics drivers (done in Safe Mode), then install the latest Nvidia.

Does Sims 3 Pets work with Snow Leopard and NVIDIA GeForce 9400 graphics?

So I recently purchased Sims 3 Pets, because as I'm sure someone has heard, my computer met the tech specs published on the game box. But I have the problem in the game that whenever a horse appears, the game freezes. I've heard that updating Leopard (I have 10.5.8) to Snow Leopard fixes the problem. However, I've also heard that Sims 3 does not work with NVIDIA GeForce 9400 graphics. (But apparently Snow Leopard needs this graphic card to run?).
So my main question is does anyone know if Sims 3 Pets works with a NVIDIA GeForce 9400 card and Snow Leopard?

*** Just a Note: I've been playing the original Sims 3 game on my mac since it originally came out. I haven't had problems until this particular expansion pack.

NVIDIA GeForce 9400m graphic installation issue.

After installing Windows XP with SP2 32-bits via Boot Camp, I inserted my OS X that does all the installation of drivers which is said to include the graphic drivers but after restarting the computer, my screen resolution went to 680x520 and to 4-bits. Everything were big, fat and ugly with geeky colors everywhere.
I've been trying to solve this problem for about 2 weeks already but still with no luck even asking this question again and again in a dozen forums. People tried and gave me the download links for the graphic driver though non of them works as most gives me the error 'Couldn't locate the compatible driver for your current hardware' or some stuff like that.
And to anyone of you that has the same exact computer as mine which is the iMac 20inch 2.66 GHz with NVIDIA GeForce 9400m graphic card that could install a working driver and is able to play games now .. PLEASE give me the link to that driver. So that I can test if it's my computers problem before handing it to the stores.
And one more question - are notebook GPU drivers suppose to work on desktops too? I've received much download link but all I see are notebook GPU drivers. Please help me with this massive issue.
Thanks in advanced.

Hey Daveyx1,
Have you checked all the software updates and installed all of the available ones? especially the EFI firmware? Check the EFI firmware version on your system and verify that is the latest from this link. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237.
If the version is not right you need to install the software updates and restart the Mac. After installing the firmware updates install the Boot Camp drivers again.
Also I know that you had tried most of the possible stuffs to get the issue resolved. However if you haven't tried that please try this.
1. Boot to Windows in Boot Camp
2. Right click on My Computer and select Manage
3. Check the display drivers installed
4. Right click on that and choose to update driver
5. When the wizard comes up let it search for the drivers first
6. If it is not finding the appropriate drivers repeat the steps and choose to install from the disk
7. Insert the Boot Camp driver disk (i.e. Mac OS X install disk) and try to update the driver.
This should update the drivers for the graphic card and the issue may be resolved. If the issue persists, please run an AHT as there may be an issue with either the Boot Camp drivers in the DVD or the Card itself.
You will need to contact the Apple store for a different disk and try installing the Boot Camp drivers or analyzing the Graphic card issues.
Hope this helps you............
Regards !!!!

NVIDIA GeForce 9400 iTunes video hiccups

On Mac OS, as soon as I start up iTunes, my video display seizes up (drops frames for a few hundred milliseconds) every 5 seconds or so, not just in iTunes playback, but across the entire display. This happens whether or not I am playing a video file. As soon as I quit iTunes, the freezes disappear. My computer is a Mac Mini with an NVIDIA GeForce 9400 video card, which I understand can be problematic with iTunes.
Here's the strange part: When I run iTunes on the Windows 7 partition of the same computer - iTunes plays files perfectly well with no freezes at all. Let me stress - the hardware is exactly the same: iTunes works for me under Windows 7, but not under Mac OS, which seems really weird!
Any advice gratefully accepted.

It doesn't use system memory, it can use if needs.
That's how Vista and W7 works:

Things to note:
I have been unable to update firmware on this computer for about a year now. Im not sure why.
I am running a bootleg copy of Windows XP on this computer, I would not like to spend $149 to get Windows 7 if possible.
any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Why don't you take your 'old' MBP into your local Apple Store and have them check out everything that's wrong with it - and I mean everything? Then, when you get an estimate about how much it would cost to get the machine completely repaired, ask about the Apple flat-rate repair pricing?
It's worth a shot - and with what you may save, you can put in the bank for a new MBP.

I have a MacBook Pro 13inch 2.4GHz (Intel Core 2 Duo, 4Gb RAM, 250Gb HDD, NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics, SD card slot, up to 10 hour battery life)bought in October 2010 in the UK. The charger has stopped working. Which model and voltage do I need please?

I have a MacBook Pro 13inch 2.4GHz (Intel Core 2 Duo, 4Gb RAM, 250Gb HDD, NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics, SD card slot, up to 10 hour battery life) bought in October 2010. The charger has been playing up for a while now - the light going out but coming back on when I move the cable a bit - faulty connection it seems. It has now stopped working at all.
Apple UK charge a whopping £65 for a replacement - and the reviews are AWFUL for it!
I need to know which one I need - 45w, 60w and 80w are listed - can someone tell me please? If I'm going to pay this price I want to make sure I get the right one!
Also, is a genuine Apple one available on Amazon UK, does anyone know please?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Meanwhile my battery is going down.....

Thanks for that wjosten. Much appreciated.
I've read here on Apple's site that the 85W version will work, as you say, and that it would run cooler with a 13" Macbook - I have a 13" MBP of course but assume this would be the same with mine. I wonder if running cooler is a good thing (it sounds as if it is) and it would be better for me to get the 85W version than the 60W one?
Then I have to decide whether to pay the (extortionate as it seems to me, though I may be wrong) £65 from Apple (bearing in mind the rotten reviews here of the Apple product), or risk a cheaper alternative from Amazon UK, at around £20 (also with various rotten reviews)... Any suggestions? Please? :-)

NVidia GeForce 344.11 Driver Release date 9/18/2014 crashes Win 8.1 Pro

NVidia GeForce 344.11 Driver Release date 9/18/2014 crashes/kills/shuts down Win 8.1 Pro, which also fails to start!
The previous version 340.52 worked ok.
Solution to get a working system:
1) let Win 8.1 take into use the previous working version (you may loose some app updates)!
2) let Win 8.1 pro update itself (takes a long time but its worth waiting!)
Note:
a. Ten points to Win 8.1 Pro being able to restore the previous working version
note: compare to Linux with eternal rest loop and "kernel in panic" state if you use NVidia's new drivers!!
b. Zero points to NVidia from this bug!
Continuation: waiting for a well tested new NVidia driver while using the older one

Hi, had exactly the same last night, on my relatively clean 8.1 64bit, GeForce Experience flagged up a recommended upgrade from 340.52 to 344.11 on my GTX650 ASUS card. Bumbled along for a while, then blue screened, reported kernel damage,
wouldn't even get far enough to restore, so had to use the 8.1 disks. Today, given its a completely clean system I tried again to prove the Nvidia was to blame, and again GeForce flagged up this upgrade, there's nothing on the system except
for Office and Avast, and again completely crashed and cycled the blue screen trying to boot. This time it eventually went into repair mode and restored right back to a clean 8.1 without the DVD's, but still had to reinstall my apps. Lots about
this on forums, seems this upgrade scrambles the registry big time. Anyone know what the actual cause of this was ?? Pretty fed up with Nvidia releasing untested crap like this.

Is NVIDIA GeForce 9400 the same as GeForce 9400M?

Final Cut Pro X system requirements claim I need a GeForce 9400M to use the software but my Mac says I simply have a GeForce 9400. Are they essentially the same?

Hi,
Going to the Nvidia website, it is clear that they regard the 9400 and the 9400M as different. Is it only the form factor (M seems to be meant for laptops) or are there greater differences? I don't know. Mac users are usually saved from the Windows problems with driver updates, but that's another issue.
But my aging iMac does well enough with FCP X and seems to have the 9400 graphics card.
I agree, try the trial version and see what happens.

Nvidia Geforce 8600M GT Driver for Vista

Hi mac-world!
I'm using BootCamp to start Windows Vista on my Mac Book Pro. I recently bought a seperate TFT-Display from Belinea, which I connect to my Mac Book via DVI. This isn't a Problem while using MacOS, but in Vista I can't adjust the resolution of the seperate Display to more than 1024x768 px. I already installed the Belinea Driver, but that doesn't solve the problem.
I am wondering, if I maybe need a driver update for the grafic-card. Unfortunately, Nvidia doesn't provide a driver download, but says, I need to contact my Laptop-Vendor for this issue. I didn't find a driver-download section on this page. Does someone know a solution? Where do I get the new driver?
Thanks in advance
regards
Thorsten

In my case after going through normal Shut Down procedures, I
noted that after I go through normal shut-down-from-Windows, the machine does not power off. I can only turn off the machine by pressing the power switch for a few seconds.
When I do not press this switch, Windows restarts after about ten minutes;
after, however, I receive a brief report (which I never manage to read in full)
informing me that a software may not have been properly installed or that I
need a windows update.
This problem appeared long after I installed all the software that I use,
and I have checked whether I'm fully updated (I am).
Lately when I start-up after experiencing this problem, Windows indicates
that the problem is caused by an NVIDIA graphics driver and suggests that I
check for a driver update. I have tried the NVIDIA Website but there was no
reference to the graphics card installed in my machine, namely GeForce 8600M
GT - I only found a driver for GeForce 8700M GT.
I have since solved the problem as rerported in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1492731&tstart=0
However, I stll wonder why there is no reference to 8600 in the NVIDIA site.

NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT driver for Vista x64

Hello,
I have an issue with my new MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz 17" that was released on the 5th of June, 2007.
It has NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT installed on it and I simply cannot find Vista 64 bit drivers for it.
I have tried the latest beta Vista x64 drivers (163.11) downloaded from nVidia's official website. I have tried several previous versions including 100.97 one, which contains drivers for 8600M GT model. But they don't work with me. All the driver installation programs allert the following error and quit:
'The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit'.
I also tried Vista 32-bit drivers for 8600M GT. The driver installation program claims the operation system is wrong and quits.
Anybody has the same issue?
Does a working driver of nVidia GeForce 8600M GT for Vista x64 exist at all?
MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz Windows Vista nVidia GeForce 8600M GT

There was one Apple's presentstion where they boot into Windows Vista. So if you claim you can do it why do you forget about Vista x64 customers? I reckon it is because of Leopard that is coming. But it's not an excuse.
I'm currently working in Vista x64 and everything is fine except one thing, I cannot find a working graphics card driver and it is manufacturer's responsibility to provide it. Apple knew there going to be customers who will install Vista x64 on their computers and they at Apple didn't care about it because I guess it's a lame war between you know who.
So why you don't make everything perfect to attract even more Windows customers but instead you hint that you don't care about Vista x64 as you are getting your own 64-bit OS soon. So now they are forcing me to wait having been announced that I can use Vista. But isn't that kind of lame that it's slightly tardy? Why I should wait for Leopard launch if I was insured that Windows will work on my Macbook Pro? Because Apple claim you can run Windows. And don't say it's not official. Who else if not Apple made it possible to run Windows on Mac.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to insult you. I'm just angry that I cannot find a working driver.

MSI nVidia GeForce 4200 TI driver problem

Hi.. I really need your help guys..
First of all, I have Windows XP Pro.
Okay, I have this MSI nVidia GeForce 4200 TI card, and wanted to change drivers.
I had 50.xx, and wanted to change back to 40.xx, because it works better with Counter-Strike.
So, I went into Device Manager and went into the video card properties -> driver.
I pressed the 'Uninstall driver', because you need to uninstall the newer driver if you want to install an older driver.
Then my computer restarted, and when it was booting, a blue screen or something came up, with text about my computer was deleting and scanning some files(?).
I don't know what it was uninstalling excatly, but when I got into Windows I had to use a 'VGA driver' or something..
I tried to install the 40.xx driver, double clicked the Setup.exe but when it was begining to install this error came up: 'An error occured while launching the setup. (0x80040702)'.
I don't know what it means, but I can't install any drivers for nVidia?!
I tried the Device manager, and I can't update the 'VGA' ..
It's like my computer isn't recognizing the card or something.. I've tried 'Add new hardware' and everything.
Please help me!
Thanks in advance.
P.S. My PC specs:
Intel Pentium4 2.0GHz
Some IBM mainboard
512DDR
GeForce 4200 TI
Windows XP Pro

Generally for nVidia drivers for the VGA, is what I explained above by going to Add Remove programs in control panel and look for the entry for nVidia display drivers.
Since you are asking me this, I fear you may not be at the experience level required to do this as it can be somewhat of a nightmare if all the drivers are not removed completely. This is what you just experienced.
Look at the top of this forum and you will se an Important thread called driver cleaner, by Bonz and then the one above it by me. Go to the DriverHeaven Website and download the DC utility but make sure you read EVERYTHING and understand it before you proceed. If you are confused or not comfortable, then I suggest finding someone that is experienced enough to do it for you.
It should be pretty straightforward.
Good luck

Will be the NVIDIA GeForce 620M graphic card be compatible with any of Adobe Premiere series?

Recently I adquired the GeForce 620M graphic card, trying to resolve a problem with my Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 software (Premiere suddenly stopped working, and the only problem was the graphic card, the NVIDIA GeForce 210 series I used to have).
In order to fix that, I buyed the 620 series, but in the Compatibilities page of Adobe (http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/premiere/cs6/pdfs/c ompatibiltiy-list-premiere-pro-cs6-only-hw-compatibility.pdf), in any of the Premiere series, CS4, CS5, CS5.5, CS6..., appears the 620M graphic card, so my cuestion is if the card is too recent to admit Premiere Pro.
Regards.

Employees and beta test people are not allowed to comment on any future Adobe plans
Any card will work with CS4 to send the display to the computer monitor
Hardware acceleration using CUDA cores is only available for CS5 and later
The official list is only updated as Adobe has staff time to completely test & certify any individual nVidia card... For many others, with at least 1Gig of video ram, use the nVidia Hack http://forums.adobe.com/thread/629557 - which is a simple entry in a "supported cards" file... again, this is ONLY for CS5 and later

Ask in the Premiere forum. On a more general level, though, CS4 will never be officailly supported, only current versions, if at all.

Satelite A505-S6025 Nvidia Geforce 310m Graphics Card

Hello everyone, I was wondering if its possible to upgrade my graphics card from the 310m to the Nvidia Geforce GT 330? If so how would i go about doing that? Thanks.

Ok seriously that arguement is VERY old. You obviously have not opened a laptop since at least 2006. Quit spouting out misinformation. Laptop video cards are typically only intergrated into the motherboard if it is a LOW end laptop. Please consider flipping your laptop over, unscrewing a few small phillips head screws... and taking a look into your hardware before you spread misinformation. THANK YOU. Its not 1999 anymore sir. That being said, I am also looking into upgrading my laptops video card. This has proven to be very difficult on every laptop I have tried to upgrade but there are few cards that are interchangable within Model/Make. sometimes you get lucky... Sometimes youre hosed. 310m to 330m is probably feasible. I am looking into a newer card that is at least DX11 capable... but form factor is the end all be all in laptop hardware upgrades.... not software. That is the golden rule to live by, take a USPS view on the matter.... If it fits, it ships. CPU, RAM, GPU.... My current i3 will be replaced soon by an i7. my 4gb of ram will soon be replaced with 8gb... and the GPU WILL see an upgrade... I may not be able to step up a generation as I want to, but there WILL be a better card. Its sad that so many people STILL are convinced that video cards are integrated. Remember as always YMMV. Certain companies embrace the change and others dont care so much about you being able to upgrade their products (see people that think GPUs are intergrated segment).
