NX6600GT TD128E - Freeze then go on

Hello everyone,
I’ve these card for a few years now and always had the same trouble, when I’m playing game (and only when playing often on Counter Strike Source, Guitar Hero III,…), sometimes and randomly, my computer freeze a bit (one or two second), and then go on.
I don’t understand why, I’ve upgraded my motherboard bios; all my drivers are up to date… Tried with both nvidia and msi driver (which one is supposed to be better, for now I’m running with the last nvidia.)
My temperatures seem usual around 44°c when idle, and 65°c when playing. (With expertool).
I’ve never take care of this trouble because, I was at school and on the boarding house with my laptop so, I never really had the time to play.
There is my configuration:
ASUS A8N-SLI
MSI NX6600GT TD128E (Bios version : 5.43.02.69.00)
AMD Ahtlon 64 3200+ (never goes above 55°c)
Windows XP SP3
1024Mo
Audigy 4
Maybe upgrading my bios ?
Or make some advanced test ? But which one ?
Thanks for your concern.

I think you should try with decent PSU.
That PSU used is cheap noname and low quality.

Other tips:
Also do a fresh OS installation.
Test VGA in another machine.

NX6600GT-TD128E SLI Bluescreen

Hi Guys!
I got a real problem with my Sli System as long as I stay in Windows i can do whatever i want , but if i start a game like
Heroes of Might and Magic 5, Half life 2, Oblivion, Warcraft3 and so on I cant just play 10-30min and then BAM Bluescreen
caused by nv4_disp.dll.
I´ve tried almost everything:
New Drivers : Almost 30 tested most of them i couldn´t activate Sli Multi GPU some of them I could but wouldn´t work either
Direct X: tested the old and the updated one. DxDiag showed nothing.
Reinstall Windows: At first I had a Cracked Windows Version now using a original Windows Xp Prof. SP2
Cards: I checked the Cards they are not getting to hot and are in their Slots
MY System
Asrock 939SLI-eSata2 (Bios 1.30)
Athlon x2 3800+ @ 2x 2Ghz
1GB DDR Dual Channel Elixir
Hitachi 250Gig Sata2
Codegen 400W 3V/20A 5V/22A 12v/16A

So i hope you Guys can help me...
With Regards
Zaraffa

try with better PSU that Codegen 400W 3V/20A 5V/22A 12v/16A is crap brand and not enought powerfull also.
other parts also look suspiciol like the cheap "1GB DDR Dual Channel Elixir" maybe its memory instability problem also, Elexir is cheaper and values parts often defectives, however they isnt designed for Dual CH(thats no mean it cannot work, but they can make errors..) did you overclock your machine at all? did you passed memtest? but that question is for future. your mobo is Asrock 939SLI-eSata2 mhh will safe the comments...
try your PC with Good Brand PSU 1st dude. read this: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=76923.0
2nd reason for problem is your memory suspected..
think you are posting at wrong forum couse im sure problem isnt it in your MSI VGA. Which Drivers you are tried?

NX6600GT-TD128E and Loose Heatsink

I just bought a NX6600GT-TD128E for a new build and it has the same loose heatsink problem, mentioned in earlier threads. Does anyone know if MSI has addressed this issue? It seems to be a design problem, to me. It seems pointless to have Newegg swap the card, unless MSI has fixed the problem. Since I like the package, I will probably keep the card and just replace the heatsink with an aftermarket cooler. Here is what I see wrong with the heatsink:
Springs in attach pins do not have enough tension to hold the heatsink tightly against the GPU & memory
Any warping in heatsink or card makes the problem worse.
Mounting in a tower case (which most of us do) will make the problem worse (Gravity!)
Someone else mentioned the heatsink attached with thermal pads. Mine just appears to be thermal compound, no adhesive, no pads.
I may do a little experiment with mine. Mount it as is and checks temps and performance. Then try a couple of aftermarket coolers and again check temps and performance.
Other thoughts? Wish me luck

Ok I see now. That looks nice in the pic but I can see where that may be a problem. I believe as long as the GPU is making good contact, the memory is not really an issue unless you intend to overclock. I have had issues with many other heatsink designs, and I usually replaced them with my own fasteners from a local hobbyshop or Ace hardware. I have been able to find plastic or PVC nuts, bolts and washers to suit my needs in most cases. It takes a little searching and is time consuming. I had a Ti4200 with the TopTech Cooler that I have had to do the same thing with. I then found that using an aftermarket cooler was the best soution anyway. I did a post in the sticky section somewhere, I think in the bulletin link about it.
Granted you should not have to accept this from a new product, and I don't blame you for being dissapointed. I don't think there have been any changes, so asking newegg to swap it would be rather pointless just like you said. You may be able to get them to swap it out for another brand, however, myself, I would prefer the MSI hardware and just get a nice aftermarket cooler or modify the fasteners.

If the game is using a profile that uses SFR the screen is split in two horizontally ... pls see below
Single frame rendering
Single frame rendering (SFR) mode in NVIDIA SLI works similarly to Metabyte’s PGC in the sense that the graphics card splits the workload horizontally across the screen. One card takes the upper portion while the second card takes the lower segment. The frame buffer data is then combined and sent to the monitor.
It’s important to note that SFR doesn’t necessarily split the screen directly down the middle; in some scenes the lower portion of the screen may be more complex than the upper portion, or vice versa. NVIDIA has developed custom load-balancing algorithms that are designed to take this into account, and split the screen appropriately – if one GPU takes longer to render, no problem, the driver just gives that GPU less work to do.
Alternate frame rendering
Up to now, ATI’s Rage Fury MAXX was arguably the most well known card to take advantage of alternate frame rendering. Rather than splitting the work up every frame like in SLI, with AFR, each graphics core handled alternate frames. Graphics core one would handle everything in frame 1, while graphics core two would then handle frame number 2. Each chip renders every other frame instead of alternating lines in the same frame, as 3dfx had done with scan-line interleave. If one GPU doesn’t finish drawing its frame, the remainder is pushed to the second GPU. This is the same concept NVIDIA has employed for their SLI technology, only we’re dealing with two distinct graphics cards, rather than two graphics cards on the same core.
The most well known downside with AFR has been perceived “lag” that may be felt by some twitch players in very fast-paced first-person shooters such as Quake 1 or Quake 3. The argument is that user inputs, such as a quick flick of your wrist to nail your opponent in mid-air with your rail gun may feel lagged. In theory, this could happen when the second AFR scenario we described occurs – GPU1 doesn’t finish its frame and the remainder is passed to GPU2 – there could be a lag between the key being pressed and the output being shown on the screen. Ironically enough, NVIDIA used this same argument to tout their GeForce 256 over Rage Fury MAXX five years ago.
We played a little Half-Life 2 (which uses AFR by default) to test out this theory, but didn’t perceive any additional lag during our “testing” sessions. Buffering kicks in when data is split between GPUs, and it appears to work well. Also keep in mind that today’s shooters aren’t as fast-paced as they were a few years ago.
Currently, AFR is NVIDIA’s preferred mode for SLI. In general, AFR uses less communications overhead (as no communications overhead between GPUs is used as long as frames are contained to each GPU), allowing it to scale better than SFR. NVIDIA also says that applications with heavy vertex loads benefit less from SFR.

NX6600GT-TD128E Lost HDTV/Video Out Connecting Cable

I own this card NX6600GT-TD128E
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/vga/vga/pro_vga_detail.php?UID=621
Is there anyway to get a replacement HDTV/Video out Cable? I misplaced mine and I'd love to get another one.... Figured I'd ask.

New itunes is destroying my life. It won't allow me to search. As soon as I type a single key in the search field. It freezes, then crashes. WHY??????

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Windows 7 64 bit: I just upgraded Firefox to 7.1 , I can't watch video on youtube, video freezes, then the browser freezes. I right click on the icon showing the page is open on the taskbar & click close then cancel, it starts then freezes again?

When I watch any video on youtube, every video first starts with short freezes then freezes the Firefox 7.1 Browser window. I have to right click on the icon that shows the browser is open on the taskbar at the bottom of windows and then click on close& cancel to get it to start working again. Also, on any site, I am having problems with links & functions that suddenly stop working, site connections being dropped frequently for no reason, my Modem is stable & internet shows connected. On facebook when I click a button(photos) it doesn't work, in Amazon I click on "submit" and the button stops functioning, in yahoo mail I can click on a button to "send" mail and it won't work. I can open them in IE9 or Chrome but not in Firefox. I have tried disabling all plugins.I also have tried disabling all but flash and still the problems persist. I have uninstalled and reinstalled FF.

Command + R *should* take it to a recovery console. Command + Option + P + R resets the PRAM, but that doesn't sound like your fix.If all of your buttons are working fine on OSX side, I would ignore PRAM / NVRAM / SMC reset tricks, since these are tested as working fine.
I would say you should probably reinstall the drivers for bootcamp. I tried this with 5 in Windows 8 and it gives you an option to repair. The reason I say this is because the UI isn't showing up, which means that it's using another driver.
If this doesn't work, go into device manager and then roll back to your previous settings.
One more thing comes to mind. Do you ever use Parallels or VMWare to load your bootcamp partition? They have their own driver packages which can cause some unwanted behavior when using windows natively.
One last thing you can do is try to by-pass the GUI powerplan entirely. You can use the Powercfg command, which, as it happens, has instructions on how to forcefully set the brightness values. You probably won't be able to make it through these instructions since you will get an error at some point, but that will give us more diagnostic information.
Good luck!

How do I get my NX6600GT-TD128E (PCIE) video card installed on a K8N NEO4-F Mb ?

I have received two new NX6600GT-TD128E (MS-8983) vdeo cards to install on my new K8N NEO4-F (MS-7125) motherboard flashed with BIOS ver 1.B.
First video card turned out to be bad. The replacement card allows view of bios screens and post screen, but when Windows XP (pro) starts up, the video goes blank and Windows XP locks up dead.
Any suggestions as to what I need to do to get the video card up and running?

My mac keeps freezing then re working ,then slowing down etc what can i do to fix this

my mac book keeps freezing , then is fine again but freezes for about 2 mins then goes back to normal

Go to applications > utilities > activity monitor
Sort them by cpu usage and if there are programs that are taking up a massive amount of cpu, then you should quit those apps. If you are watching videos on the internet (especially youtube videos) that will take up a lot of cpu.

Syncing requires a backup as part of the sync process.
Delete any existing backups in iTunes under Edit > Preferences > Devices (or simply move them to a different folder on the computer) then try a backup or sync.

Is my NX6600GT-TD128E faulty?

I bought the MSI NX6600GT-TD128E in February of 2005. I haven't touched it since I first put it into my computer and it has been working fine for the past two years.
For the past month or so whenever I run something that uses accelerated graphics there is a ton of corruption on the screen. I have tried dozens of different configurations and tried it on multiple clean installs of Windows Vista, Ubuntu Edgy Eft, and Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (the last two are Linux distributions). Obvious I doubt it is a software problem if it just randomly stopped working and I tested it on multiple configurations.
I don't know if there is anything I can do about it and I was wondering if I should (or can) get it fixed under warranty? If I do, does it usually take a long time and how much will it cost?
I have tons of screenshots depicting the problem which I will attach.

Is this under warranty? I can't believe it is still running!
well dunno about the warrantly since its 2 year old and hmm looks like cooler is heavy damaged.
you can ask your reseller about warantly or to How to contact MSI. for more information.
easy way to fix it just get and install after market VGA cooler. (NOTE: make sure it will be compatible with your VGA model).
