P4m266 (MSI 6786 V2) On-Board VGA drivers don't work with SP2

I have a Pinnacle Micro system in the workshop which required a re-installation of the OS. The client no longer has the original installation CDs from Pinnacle and the local Pinnacle branch have declined to make a copy available to me. The mobo is an MSI 6787 Ver.2 with a Phoenix BIOS.
I installed Windows XP Home (no SP) and had no problems. I then used the CD supplied by Microsoft to install SP2. On rebooting the display was horrific. The OS automatically detected the VGA card as an S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR and installed the drivers. However it is virtually impossible to see anything on the screen, the colours are distorted and very faded. I tried to download updated drivers using the LiveUpdate feature but the first problem arose when it wanted to update the Phoenix BIOS with an AWARD BIOS...I quit in a hurry.
I have tried several drivers for this card. I browsed through the P4M266 boards until I found one which looked identical to the board I have in the workshop. However, it doesn't matter which version of driver I use none of them will give me a reasonable display.
Please can somebody tell me where I can find the correct drivers?
TIA

  • Two VGA monitors don't work with two different G4s, but both work with G3!

    I recently acquired two used Power Mac G4s (one of them is a mirrored-door dual-processor that I got from school and was told should work, the other is a Gigabit Ethernet model, and should also work), from two completely different sources. They both turn on (I get a power-on light, I hear HDDs churning, and I get a power chime from one of them, and they react to the usual Mac stimuli, mouse and keyboard light up, reset button works, etc.) but I get *absolutely no video*. The monitor syncs for a second, like it gets a quick signal, then goes immediately back to the "CHECK SIGNAL CABLE" message.
    I have tried them both with two generic PC VGA monitors (though they were both kind of old and crummy ones, they work on my G3 and other computers. I've tried the working PCI video card from my G3, that doesn't work, nor does swapping their video cards. They both have Apple-supplied ATI AGP video cards, both with Apple's proprietary ADC interface, though one has only DVI out (with a DVI to VGA adapter that came with it) and the other has a straight VGA port.
    The weird thing is that, even though these computers have never, er, met before, they have the exact same problem. The only thing these things have in common is the monitor I'm using. This leads me to believe
    The only thing left I can think of is to hook them straight from the DVI port to my HDTV, but I don't have a DVI cable, much less know ANYTHING about DVI. Could it be that these particular VGA monitors don't like AGP video cards, or some sort of weird incompatibility that isn't well known?
    I figure if anyone's seen something like this, you guys have. Here are the AppleHistory entries on these machines, if it helps:

    The software on the hard drives may be set for a video setting that won't work with your monitor. A few things to try (in order):
    1) Reset PRAM. Hold down Cmd-Option-P-R when booting until you hear the third Boing.
    2) Hold down Option when booting. Should show symbol of hard drive, plus a couple of arrows.
    3) Boot from a CD (Install disk or, preferably, Hardware Test Disk).
    4) Safe boot. Hold down "S" just after the boing. Release it when (if?) you see the turning gear.
    If it is a scan rate problem, one of these should show some video.

  • V570 video drivers don't work with Windows 7 Home Premium 64

    Yesterday I bought a V570 notebook, with an addition Windows 7 Home Premium 64 BIT OEM, since the operating system on it was Free Dos. 
    I've installed Windows and started to install the drivers from the disk that came with notebook. After I've installed the Intel VGA driver, on boot I got a bluescreen, then the notebook just started to restart. I couldn't get a restore so I had to reinstall windows again. After that I've tryed to use the drivers from the lenovo page, from windows update, all the same result.
    So I've downloaded an illegal copy of windows 7 ultimate, just to test it out, and guess what, IT WORKES PERFECTLY FINE! Now I can't and won't use that windows, this is why I paid for an original one, so please someone tell me what can I do to make it work! I was up until 4:15 AM and coulnd't find an answer. There is a national holliday today in Romania, so the guys from the call center are not working today.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I finnaly resolved it. If anyone else has this issue, here is what you do:
    1. install all drivers from the CD, except the ones related to the graphics card
    2. install all Windows Updates, except the ones related to the graphics card. You will have to reboot a couple of times, and keep installing until the only updates that remain are related to the graphics card.
    3. install the video drivers from the CD
    4. ENJOY

  • New hp drivers don't work with 10.8.2 a fix??

  • HP Pavilion dv7-6b76eo GPU drivers don't work on Win8.1 and ones for Win7 are older than my grandma

    I got
    HP Pavilion dv7-6b76eo
    i7-2670QM 2.2 GHz
    8GB DDR3 1333Mhz
    1TB SATA 5400RPM
    AMD Radeon HD 6770M - 2 GB GDDR5 out of ~6GB dedicated
    Installed the latest version of Win 8.1 + all it's updates + the update 1. So it's as latest as possible. Even installed those Win Updates that MS threatened they will only offer to a certain point it time in May and not later than that. So it's all updated.
    However, the GPU drivers don't work. Tried different forums too and even tried those brightness registry fix files, but still to no avail. Will HP ever provide a meaningful GPU driver both for Win7 and Win8? I am saying Win7 too, cos the one offered currently for my HP Pavilion dv7-6b76eo is ridiculously old ....

    HP are quiet .. they know they've been lazy ...

  • K8N Neo3 don't work with MSI RX850XT PE?

    I want to buy a MSI K8N Neo3-F to use with my VGA AGP RX850XT PE but in the PDF linked on the specifications page ( http://www.msi.com.tw/html/products/mainboard/agr/7135agr.pdf ) my VGA isn't listed.
    Works or not?
    Tnx a lot

    You're going to want to find a proper agp board to drop that vid card into.
    The AGR slot isn't a full fledged agp slot so even if it did work with it, I doubt it would perform up to it's fullest.
    I'm a fan of msi boards, but if you're looking for something that would allow you to upgrade to pcie in the future, I believe that asrock is the only mobo producer making a board that has both PCIe & AGP slots.

  • VGA cable no longer working with IOS8

    VGA cable that I have (that used to always work), no longer works with ANY projector.  Either get zero recognition or popup saying it "doesn't support that application".  It is an Apple VGA cable.  Thoughts?  Thank you....

    Other folks have reported problems with older cables when using 8.x.  You can wait and see if apple eventually fixes or go to an apple store and buy a new cable.  Got to get the latest firmware on the cable. You could buy apple tv or chromecast ( more difficult to configure ).

  • HP CM1312MPF drivers don't work via Windows 7 but works fine via Linux dual booting

    HP CM1312MPF drivers don't seem work using Windows 7 (64-bit) .  Original HP drivers CD now lost. Current drivers were downloaded from HP's website. (This webpage has a number of drivers and most 64-bit ones have been tried. Prior to my Windows re-install, the machine printed and scanned satifactoralily in Windows 7. One day this O/S refused to boot and had to be fully re-installed. The reinstall has been tried on both a SSD and on a HDD. (I have 3 x HDDs and 1 x SSD in this Desktop system. and I dual boot Windows7 and Linux Mint with data on its own HDD.) No attempt has yet been made to scan after this Windows re-install, as I have a separate photo scanner.  I mainly wish on the to print on CM1312MPF, however it did scan perfectly well prior to the reinstall of Windows. THE CM1312MPF PRINTS FINE VIA THE SAME USB OUTPUT LEAD (AND POWERED HUB) AS VIA LINUX MINT 17 (PETRA)  when I dual boot and without any PHYSICAL CHANGES between changing O/Ss. It must be a driver problem, surely, mustn't it? I look forward to your help. John_of_Penrith

    You can also disable that windows wireless "Critter" from device manager and it shouldn't ever again show-up in your adapter list. Thanks for the lesson. I too have wondered about the windows virtual adapter and what it's for. I never had it show-up in my adapters though in the network and sharing center. That was strange that it happened to you. I also occasionally just go to device manager and reload the adapter that came with laptop-not the windows one. It
    seems to keep it running fairly well since there have been no new drivers for it. I think it was an experiment or something called the DW1501 Wireless half-mini n that came with my Dell Inspiron N7010 laptop. I don't particularly like it as compared to the other wireless adapters in my home, this thing is slow on downloads, but I don't want to bother to get a new adapter.
    Anyhow thanks for the interesting lesson.

  • Solaris 10 PV-on-HVM drivers (SUNWxvmpv) not working with Xen 4.0.x

    I have an HVM Solaris 10 virtual machine guest (domU) running on Xen 4.0.1. I'd like to use a PV (paravirtualized) NIC instead of an emulated NIC, and I know Solaris 10 has pv-on-hvm drivers installed by default (SUNWxvmpv). I'm using Solaris 10 10/09 (U8) release, SUNWxvmpv xVM Paravirtualized Drivers Version 11.10.0,REV=2008.02.29.14.37.
    On Xen 3.3, when I specify a PV NIC, the Solaris 10 kernel detects the device (xnf0), loads the drivers and everything works as expected. On Xen 4.0, using the same exact VM configuration file and disk image, the kernel doesn't see the device. I've tried filing this bug with the Xen developer community, but I suspect that the problem is that the interface presented by the paravirtualized devices changed between Xen 3.3 and Xen 4.0 and the Solaris xVM PV drivers were never updated to account for this.
    Are there updated PVHVM drivers for Solaris 10 available? Is the source for the drivers available? Thanks for any help you can provide.

    When I went to save a file in firefox, the toolbar started working once the save as dialog popped up. It is definitely a bug in 6.10.2's toolbar code. Hopefully they fix it ASAP.

  • Need Board/VGA-Drivers WinXP to operate Satellite A65 from US

    Hi there,
    Satellite A65 is not listed throughout the Toshiba-Site(s). But it exists and badly needs some drivers. This special one came from US to Germany and has lost all Recovery/Driver/Utility-CDs. I set it up w/ standard-XP-drivers, but shortly after installing VGA (ATI Catalyst) it produced blue screens.
    Now it wont boot XP w/o blue screening. This maybe because I installed A60 drivers which seemed to be OK, but VGA wasnt.
    Can anyone help me? Is there any link to drivers exactly for Satellite A65?
    Thanks in advance - B-Server

  • [GeForce 6] NX 6600 TD256e`s fun, don´t work with gforce drivers

    I´ve un PIV, Intel D915PGN mother board, 1GB  RAM and NX6600 TD256E Graphic card.
    With the nVidia last drivers, the fan dosn´t work when windows XP SP2 starts .(previously, if i enter in the setup, the fun work every time).
    If I replace the driver for standard VGA windows driver, the fun works OK. But, it isn´t the idea.
    My power supply is 17 A for 12 W.
    What can I do? The consecuences are , in heavy games, the screen freeze and I need to reboot the PC.
    Lija
     

    If you download and install Coolbits2 you can force the fan on the graphics card to remain on at all times.  (Google for it.)
    Good luck.
