Older nVidia NVS104M driver needed

I can't get my hands on the original release of the WinXP NVS 140M driver, for the T61.  (Only the original release, 6.14.11.0133 from 5/18/2007, supports a certain video accessory card we have been using on the T60's) 
I searched all of the video driver releases in:  ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/ , and the only one listed in allfiles.txt that's still actually in the folder is 6.14.10, for the N100 on a Lenovo3000.  That one doesn't fly.
Does anyone know if there's another location for archived driver releases?   Or, anyone with a first-run T61 who has that Win XP video driver?

Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you have a T61 with an original factory install, you also have the original driver even though the T61 may have been updated. It can be found in C:\SWTOOLS\DRIVERS\VIDEO

  • MacBook Air/nvidia GeForce9400M/driver issue  font installation fails on xp

    xp sp3 on a MacBook Air (bought 04-2009, 2x 1,86 GHz, 128 GB SSD) fails to install otf type fonts with an error message. Also Adobe Photoshop 10 (CS3) will crash upon trying to insert writing into a jpeg, tif, psd etc.
    Source of problem: The nvidia graphic driver needs some more memory allocation than xp expects.
    Remedy: open the registry editor (START>RUN>regedit)
    navigate to the following key:
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\MemoryManagement
    add a new REG_DWORD Value
    change the name of the value to
    SessionImageSize
    set its value (decimal) to
    20
    reboot
    -- this problem would only seem to affect xp sp3 systems with nvidia graphics
    -- be sure to backup your registry before changing it and
    be sure to know what you are doing before editing the registry
    Apparently this problem has been recognized by nvidia and implemented in their latest driver release. This is not suited, however, for Apple products, since they have further customized the nvidia driver (and apparently NOT included this fix!).
    The fix will resolve the problems mentioned above with installing otf type fonts and inserting writing into pics in photoshop. Photoshop, however, continues to crash upon exiting, an issue not yet resolved.

    Hi and welocme to Discussions,
    use the SafeBoot options of XP as described here http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B315222&x=10&y=11
    Use Safe Mode (=Minimal) to startup XP with a minimal set of drivers and from there uninstall the not-working Nvidia drivers.
    The reinstall the drivers that worked.
    You might wanna tryout if 'Last Known Good Configuration' works.
    Regards
    Stefan

  • Linux 3.2.8 - older nvidia driver needs a rebuild

    For those still using an older nvidia driver - this version needs a rebuild, eg.  NVIDIA-Linux-x86-285.05.09

      In the search link I gave above: b43-firmware-latest is for kernel 3.2+ and b43-firmware is for <3.2.  That is the, ahem, AUR search link good sir.   If someone is using b43-firmware however, they may not catch that they need to remove that and migrate to b43-firmware-latest when kernel 3.2 hits.
    I actually have a Broadcom 4311 in my laptop.  I never use it and use a wired connection instead simply because no driver I've tried has been stable enough - mostly frequent disconnects/non-responsive - so when 3.2 hits I may just try it again with b43-firmware-latest and see if it's better!

  • Older MacPro Tower - Optical Drive needs to be replaced

    I have an older MacPro Tower (OS X 10.7.5) and my original optical drive needs to be replaced.  I need to read and write CDs and DVDs.  I also occasionally need to read and write DVD+R DL (dual layer) media.
    Could I use a unit like the Pioneer BDR-209 DBK?  Will it work reliably with CD and DVD media?  The reason I ask is that as BDR media drops in price, I would like to start using this (due to the higher capacity) for backing up data.
    I'm hoping to be able to confirm this unit will work before purchasing it.  If there is a better alternative, please let me know.  If there is a reason to stay with a traditional CD/DVD writer, then please tell me and recommend a good unit that is reasonable and reliable.
    Thank you.

    here's my 2 cents on this: there should be 2 sata ports on your logic boards. However, getting to them is a pain in the rear. If you want to try that way, by all means do so. However, you can get a Sata to Pata bridge board which attaches to the rear of the Sata drive and lets it be used without having to try to find the sata connectors.  That way you can use more modern drives.  I bought something from MCE and it worked just fine (it's a blu-ray, btw). Installation was a snap.  My original CD/DVD drive failed and I didn't want to mess around trying to find a replacement ATAPI (or PATA) drive. The only real caveats I have to tell you are: If you want to play and view Blu-Ray discs in your MacPro tower, you'll have to buy a 2nd party blu ray player. Same with burning Blu-ray discs. You'll have to buy some kind of upgrade to Toast if that's what you used to burn stuff before.  however, if all you want to do is burn standard CD's and DVD's then it'll work just fine. the pioneer may have issues with sleeping, but I can't confirm this for sure either way
    just my opinion on this.

  • Satellite A130 PSAD3U - Need nVidia Vista driver - slow gaming

    I try to update drivers but I don't find correct drivers.
    Where are drivers for my notebook?

    Hi
    I found this Toshiba US document about a similar issue.
    The solution is --- BIOS and nVidia graphic driver update.

  • NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver

    Alienware M14x Laptop
    Windows 7-pre 64-bit
    8gb ram
    3gb Video: NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M
    Intel i7 2760QM
    AE CS4
    AE keeps crashing. I get the following message while doing something as simple as scrubbing through the timeline, or changing opacity of a layer. in 1080p, I have a picture layer, a solid, some color corrections, and that's it. i just got this new computer and i have never had this problem on my old computer.
    this message appears after AE crashes."The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver and is unable to continue. The application must close."
    this message appears in the taskbar: "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered. Display driver NVIDIA Windows kernel Mode Driver, Version 267.21 stopped responding and has successfully recovered"
    any ideas on how to stop AE from causing my display driver to stop working?
    Thanks, Ramzi Rebeiz

    For anyone picking up this thread (it's probably too late for rrebeiz40 by now!) I have come across a simple but apparently very effective tip that has solved the 'OpenGL driver lost connection' issue for many people using various NVIDIA with various Adobe progs (incidentally a lot of these seem to crop up on Dell machines, especially Notebooks).
    (It fixed my issue with Premiere Pro CS4 - GeForce GT 555M on Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit, Dell XPSL702X).
    It's posted on http://forum-archive.developer.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=5331&st=40 (look for the last post, No 50) as follows:
    THIS FIX APPEARS TO WORK...found on an Adobe forum
    "This issue led me to this fix: go to NVIDIA Control Panel --> Manage 3D Settings --> Global Settings, and switch "Power Management Mode" to "Prefer Maximum Performance" (the default "Adaptive" setting seemed to be the culprit). And that's it! The key here is changing the "Global" setting, as my individual programs were already set to "Prefer Maximum Performance." I can cause the error to reoccur by changing back to "Adaptive."
    Otherwise lots more ideas on this site: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Fix...Nvlddmkm-Error/
    My PC has been running for 2 days now. I only put the top fix in for now. Feel happier I have more options if need be though.

  • Xorg fails to restart with nvidia propertiary driver

    Hi!
    Dear fellow archers, I've got this little problem which is driving me crazy: after first successful start of xorg while booting  ("kdm" is in the DAEMONS list in rc.conf), i can't get to start it once again (for example with "/etc/rc.d/kdm restart"). When I try to do this screen goes blank (+ single underscore in top-left corner) for ~10 seconds, then nvidia logo shows up for half a second, and finally it failbacks to terminal.
    I use thinkpad T61 with nvidia quadro nvs 140m and nvidia driver version 190.42 (from extra repo).
    Thanks in advance for all suggestions.

    I don't think the 190 driver is intended for the quadro M series. As per the nvidia site, the 100 or 169 drivers support your video card.

    Well, this quadro is almost identical to geforce 8400GS, so I don't think nvidia site is up to date in this respect. Besides, other than this issue everything works just fine. It is just annoying to be forced to reboot everytime I have to restart X. And I need nvidia propertiary driver, because I use opencl.
    Thats odd then. I have an 8400gs and am using the beta driver without any issues. Give the legacy driver a try once.
    Exit the gui (ctrl+alt+f1)
    Remove the current driver
    pacman -Rd nvidia nvidia-utils
    (replace with nvidia-beta nvidia-utils-beta if you switched to the beta driver)
    Now install the legacy driver
    pacman -S nvidia-173xx nvidia-173xx-utils
    Reboot
    Hope this helps.

  • With hardware acceleration enabled, and with plenty of tabs open, using the Windows 7 taskbar preview option will almost always crashed the nVidia display driver.

    If I have plenty of tabs opened, in Firefox 4 beta 6 with hardware acceleration enabled, using the Windows 7 Taskbar preview feature (that will show all the tabs Firefox has loaded) will cause the Nvidia display driver to crash. When this happen, the GUI part of Firefox will be unusable and has to be killed via Task Manager.
    This doesn't happen if hardware acceleration is disabled.

    It is beta software and the older 4.0 b6 version may not work with all display drivers.

    Hi:
    First you have to install the Intel HD graphics driver first, reboot and then install the nvidia graphics driver.

  • URxvt getting slower with use - is it xft or nvidia binary driver?

    Hi,
    I started using URxvt recently and I love it, especially the tabbed add-on. There's just one problem - with intensive use, after an hour or two it gets very slow in refreshing when switching between tabs or just using it. I mean the text redraw takes a while, like half a second, which is annoying when switching between many tabs.
    Now I know xft is supposted to be slow and I'm using it, but I have a core 2 duo 2.33GHz CPU so I thought maybe it can handle xft... And it does, just after restart it works just faaaaast. But after an hour or so it's slow, and later it's even slower.
    What is also interesting is that sometimes just resizing the window helps, like making it just a tad smaller, or even bigger. But after a couple resizes even that doesn't help.
    So, is it xft that's getting slower and slower with use?
    I also use the nvidia proprietary driver and I heard that causes problems, so could that be it?
    Apart from that, I use kde 4.4. URxvt is 9.07 and nvidia is 195.36.03.
    As for disabling xft: I'm currently using Code Envy R font and I love it, so if I can just keep using it without xft (can i?) then that's okay, otherwise I'd like to stick to xft if at all possible....
    Does that happen to anybody else? What do you think may be the problem?
    Thanks!

    Thanks everybody for all the suggestions. I have checked htop, atop and iotop to ensure nothing is eating my resources. The CPU is free, disk is free and most of memory is as well (I have 3gig so it's plenty). I'm not running in daemon mode and the slowing down is mostly visible when switching tabs so maybe that's it.
    I'm familiar with tmux, thanks for the suggestion too, but I still can't get used to it's shortcuts. I like urxvt simple shift-left and shift-right to switch tabs. Maybe I can just reconfigure tmux hotkeys... I'll certainly go that way if I fail with getting urxvt to work properly but there's still a couple of things to try.
    I'll try the daemon/client mode of urxvt and I'm also currently trying mrxvt with UTF-8 patch from aur, so far it works good but I need to put it to much more use before I can say it's really fast.
    I understand urxvt should run fine on my machine, that's why I was really surprised when I noticed the slow downs. I suspected nvidia because they had some issues in the past with anti-aliased fonts, but seems like it was in the past. One thing's for sure - it made konsole really slow in some configurations. So I thought maybe urxvt is affected by that as well, but if it works for other people then I guess it's something else.
    Thanks for all the suggestions everybody!

  • NVidia Capture Driver VS Leadtek TV Tuner problem

    I previously have used Leadtek WInfast TV Tuner 2000/XP before I installed MSI Geforce4MX 460-VTP with VIVO.
    I never installed the capture driver for the Geforce card though, because I do not see the need. Besides I prefer to use the tv tuner to record my tv programs.
    Another reason why I didn't install the NVidia capture driver is because I realize that it will cause some conflicts with the Leadtek TVTUner card driver because both are actually installing the same device drivers for the same tv-chip hardware located on both card.
    NVidia Capture Driver will install these hardwares in Device Manager:
    - Nvidia WDM Audio Capture
    - Nvidia WDM Crossbar
    - Nvidia WDM TVTuner
    - NVidia WDM Video Capture
    while, the Leadtek TVTUner driver will install the same driver for its own hardwares:
    - Winfast TV2000-XP Audio Capture
    - Winfast TV2000-XP Crossbar
    - Winfast TV2000-XP TVTuner
    - Winfast TV2000-XP Video Capture
    Surely installing Nvidia Capture driver & Leadtek TV TUner driver will cause WinXP confused because it finds 2 sets of the same hardwares.
    As I previously explained, I currently didn't install the Nvidia Capture Driver, and relies mainly on the Leadtek TVTuner to watch tv programs.  The problem is when I tried to use some recording softwares like TVTools, these softwares will only find the NVidia TV Tuner hardware instead of my Leadtek TV Tuner.  
    How could I solve this problem ?
    Is there any way to make both hardwares (Leadtek tv tuner & NVidia capture driver) work together ?

    It's got to be either a configuration issue or an incompatability with hardware because I have installed several of those cards on friends and client PC's without a single problem. I will say they all had nVidia VGA cards and either the nvidia or via chipset. I also have one and I can't find a better card for the $ and the ease of use, nice clean straight forward GUI and stability.
    Have you tried the latest drivers and PVS from leadtek's website?
    This thread should be in the VGA forum with a link here just in case a user with your mobo has this card.
    It's not in a shared slot is it? Have you looked for IRQ conflicts? Try removing the bluetooth and modem temporarily so you only have that one TV card, then check the IRQ's. If you have to move the card to another slot. The best slots are the second and third one down from the top (where the AGP slot is) and not the first and the last slot. Try operation then. Does this fix the problem? If so then you have to find the best slots for the BT and the modem.
    Good luck.

  • Lost Hard drive need the Tarantella 3 program for Redhat 8

    Does anyone know where I can find Tarantella3 for Redhat 8? I have my
    Certificate of License and Authencity document, but I lost my hard drive
    which contained the Tarantella install program. Obviously I cannot pull
    the license out of the product because the hd failed.

    I tried that and input my license key in the format
    XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX and the screen displayed "invalid key".
    This was never accepted. Any idea why?
    Carmelo wrote:
    The COLA should have the license key. Register on Customer Central and
    you should be able to get to the Downloads section and download 3.30.
    Then use the keys from the COLA to license your server.

    Tarantella v3.42.947 that will install on Redhat 8 from

    if you need an older version then you need to have registered or have

  • Nvidia beta driver link down

    The link for the nvidia beta driver has been down for the last couple of days everytime I try to download it.  http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?I … hans=&SeB=
    I have found another site ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/185.18.10/ which has two links.  They look as if they are in the right format for a package to use in Arch, but will they actually work?  Also, which one would I need?  There are two - pkg0 and pkg1.run.
    Very respectfully!

    Okay I think found the answer to my question from the "readme" file.
    What is the significance of the pkg# suffix on the .run file?
    The pkg# suffix is used to distinguish between .run files containing the same driver, but different sets of precompiled kernel interfaces. If a distribution releases a new kernel after an NVIDIA driver is released, the current NVIDIA driver can be repackaged to include a precompiled kernel interface for that newer kernel (in addition to all the precompiled kernel interfaces that were included in the previous package of the driver).
    .run files with the same version number, but different pkg numbers, only differ in what precompiled kernel interfaces are included. Additionally, .run files with higher pkg numbers will contain everything the .run files with lower pkg numbers contain.
    So I am assuming it doesnt matter.  Is my assumption correct.
    very respectfully!

  • NVidia GART driver

    I have the K8N Neo2 Plat mobo.  Just did a clean install of XP Pro.  However, whenever I install any version of the nvidia gart driver, I am 98% garanteed to freeze up on the XP loading screen with the colored progress bar. If i reset the machine enough times, it might actually boot, but for the most part, it just locks up.
    I have checked this out thoroughly.  I installed each driver 1 by 1. And when i got to the gart driver, BINGO.
    Anyone know anything about this?
    Do I need that GART driver?

    No, I dont have access to another PSU.
    Cant unplug hdd, raid.
    Just upgraded the CPU and board from an OCed 1700+ (385x9.0   1665Mhz) and an Abit NF7-S.   Don't think the power supply needs to be upgraded, just upgraded from a 350W Enermax b/c of the 6800GT.
    Placing Dimms in slots 1 and 2 is a no go for Dual DDR, check the book.
    CHA1 CHB1 CHA2 CHB2
    Will try lowering the cpu voltage to 1.4, already am using nforce 5.10
    Downloaded the drivers multiple times, and installed windows twice. Formatting between the installs.
    Just installed the gart again, and it booted, twice in a row.
    ran 3dmark 03 b4 gart, and got an 8503 (bad), realize now why, gart good
    got a 10113 under XP 64, gart installed fine there
    running 3dmark 03 now on that machine
