Problem w/GF4 Ti4200 vtd-8x

I had problems with my new MSI GF4 Ti4200 vtd-8x 128mb running on a 648 Max mobo. The mobo supports agp 8x but both riva tuner and display properties showed it running on agp 4x. I would really appreciate any help I can get.

Try updating both mobo and VGA card drivers.
Do clean un-installation before installing new VGA driver...
All the Best... :D !!!

Gf4 Ti4200 VTD 8x macro or not?

hi there i have one question
is in gf4 Ti4200 VTD 8x /MS-8894/ implemented macrovision in tv-out? ?(

Yes it has macrovision enabled as noted in the user's guide. What you get is a large white box covering most of the video image. Switching to an older capture driver (v1.08 gets rid of the box for me but introduces a mostly out of sync video (still unwatchable). This might be fixed with the use os some sort of amplifier bewteen the player and the video card.

Resolution problem with GF4 Ti4200-TD 128MB DDR

I am having problems when I switch my display resolution to 640x480x32.
It also affects any application which runs in the affected resolution.
I tried re-installing the VGA card in its AGP slot and its drivers after removing my previous VGA card and its drivers.
The driver that i am using for the MSI VGA card, which is 4.13.2890, is already updated via LiveUpdate, which is now 4.1.3.3000
My system consists of:
AOpen AX34 Pro Motherboard
AGP 2X / 4X
Intel Pentium III 800MHz
512MB RAM
Direct X 8.1
Windows Me
Looking forward to you reply. Thank you for your help.

izel,
Get the latest Via 4in1 Drivers and try running the Card in AGP 2X. Do not expect much from the Via Apollo Pro 133 Chipset. Lots of problems with the GART.
Take Care,
Richard

Nvidia GF4 Ti4200 Driver problems!!!

I have built up a new system with the following:
MSI K7N2G-ILSR
nVIDIA GF4 Ti4200 128mb DDR
AMD XP2400+
512MB 333 DDR
PSU 350W
WD 80GB Caviar (partitioned)
Thermaltake Volcano 9 HSF
I have installed XP-PRO (+SP1). The problem I have is the drivers. First off I install the nFORCE 2 platform drivers - Fine, then I install the VGA Driver disc 40.72's. According to the installation, all is fine. When the system reboots, we have a no go (blank screen). I then need to go back to last known settings....yeah, yeah!
So far I have downloaded nearly all the drivers off the Nvidia site as well, using my other PC. (1MB CABLE). Each one cause pretty much the same problem, including all the WHQL versions.
I even downloaded the Nvidia nFORCE 2 platform package, which included a VGA driver. This still caused the same result.
My next step was to swap over with my other PC. Once I inserted a GeForce2 64MB DDR PRO/GTS, all appears fine, the drivers install...no problem.
I insert the GF4 Ti4200 into my ECS K7S5A, and low and behold all is fine here.....drivers, no problems.
Any idea's......anyone??????
Like compatibility problem or what..... I'm totally lost and confused now!!

No, Markone from UK, novice PC builder..... :D
Borgstif:
"uninstall the driver in safe mode and the Reg entry in WinXp "
Explain exactly what you mean, I can choose start up in safe mode yes, but what will that do for me??
gfilitti:
Not sure exactly what specs you want? this is my first build ever. The PSU is a bog standard fitment inside an ATX Case, not a separate fitment. Can you be more specific about "timing etc..."
The Ti4200 is working fine in my less advanced ECS K7S5A machine......with 300W PSU.
And likewise the Nforce 2 machine operates my Geforce 2 GTS/PRO also with no problems.

GF4 Ti4200 and Win98 - HELP ! serious problem with drivers !

Ok, I could successfully install the MSI GF4 Ti4200 128 in Windows 2000, no problem there, everything is working.
I then installed Win98 as a second OS, I launch the drivers setup (from MSI CD) and I reboot as wanted by the setup. The PC reboots, the Win98 screen appears and suddenly...it reboots by itself, no message, no black screen. I tried with other driver versions from NVidia and this time, I get a freezed black screen after the Win98 screen, I must press reset. I had to enter the safe-mode to remove the drivers and get the usual 640x480 in 16 colors.
What's going on ? I tried to change my bios parameters, disable the virus detection option, everything that could make problems ... but no success. I also tried a second Win98 installation, with DX 8.1 installed before the drivers but still the same problem.
My system is AMD XP 2100 with Asus A7V333 motherboard - 300W for power, is the problem caused by some VIA chips ? I tried with their 4-1 drivers and stuff on the CD but it really doesn't want to work.
Please help...

after searching a bit on the forum, I found a thread where someone pointed out a problem caused by memory, greets to him. I have 1 gb of ram and I added these lines to my system.ini :
[vcache]
MinFileCache=65536
MaxFileCache=131072
ChunkSize=2048
NameCache=4096
DirectoryCache=96
ConservativeSwapFileUsage=1
Values may change with more/less memory...And now it works perfectly in Win98.

Does exist the MSI GF4 TI4200 VTP8X?

Hello, I live in Spain and I go to adquire a MSI graphics card. I'll buy a GF4 TI4200 VTP 8X, but I think that model doesn't exist because in the oficcial page not appear, only appears the TD 8X and the VTD 8X models. But in http://www.alternate.net that model exist! What happen? Exist or not exist?
Thank you very much !!!
P.D. Sorry for my English, it isn't very well

I had the same problem with my MSI G4 Ti4200-VTD8X.
I did the same manual loading of the capture program. Didn't work. Look in control panel under your hardware and see if there is a yellow "!" next to the part that mentions "capture." Every time that was there the in didn't work.
I would uninstall and try it again.
Sometimes it would work for the day. I would even shut the computer off and when I would turn it back on, it would still work. Shut it off for the night and the next day it wouldn't work again! Go figure!!! Do a restore to the point where I shut the computer off for the night, and it still wouldn't work.
I believe it worked for good when I loaded the 4072 drivers. I did not install the manual program (I think - I did so many un/installs I can't be sure). Now the funny thing, those other little installs are not in my harware. But it works. I can't explain this.
Basically, uninstall the whole card driver , not just the capture. Reinstall the card driver without that other manual capture program. Just keep trying installing and uninstalling and checking out WinProducer to see if the capture option is there. If it still doesn't, try the manual capture program. Just keep trying different combinations.
Sorry that this isn't more of a step by step, but it worked for me. Hopefully MSI will put out another driver soon that will fix this once and for all.

Slow gf4 Ti4200

I'm having a problem with my gf4 Ti4200. It runs at slow framerates even at lower resolution and graphics during games. Ive tested with Nightfire and UT2003 and my friends PC with gf2 runs better. Its in 4x mode and ive been told about dma. whats dma?
Are there any other suggestions anyone has that may increase my gf4's performance?

Im beginning to lose my patience with this machine. Im not very technical with a computer so i really need your help. Ive managed to pin point the problem with 3Dmark2001. The highpolygon test with 8 lights shows the same problem i have with direct3D games, a very stunted (unsmooth) movement and i get 9.0Mtriangles/sec (Not sure if thats good or bad).
Ive looked at other threads, and one struck me as odd about installing a new mouse seemed to interfer with the video card. The link is here and its the third post down:
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/e_service/...10433boardid=9
It sounded like he was having the same problem as me, and i have recently installed a new mouse and keyboard but hadn't registered that this could be a problem.
I was hoping i had an incorrect direct3D setting or something to do wiht multilights or multipolygons. Opengl works fine, its just the direct3D. Im struggling here. Can someone please help me.

GF4 TI4200 BSOD Dilemma - Please help!

Greetings gurus and fellow frustrated gamers. I purchased MSI's GF4 TI4200 about a year ago and have been putting up with a problem I thought was related to other components for a long time. Every single 3D graphics game I play in windows XP will eventually and utterly crash with a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) which relates always to the nv4_dsp.dll file which is Nvidia's driver. I have tried 12 drivers...MSI/NVidia/experimental with no change. With help from the folks on the forum I replaced the PSU with an Antec 400w with no change. I have tried my old Geforce2 MX400 with the same problem. I have reformatted the computer 8 times and removed every single additional component except what was required to test my problem. I just purchased Star Wars Galaxies and am now crashing 8-15 times a day. I generally go 20-30 minutes between crashes. This is no longer acceptable. I have received this crash on Warcraft III, WC3:TFT, Neverwinter Nights, SWG, Black & White, and many more.
I have found through search engines that this has something to do with some Windows XP systems and Nvidia drivers and is an issue that does not have a fix. I am hoping that you can offer something that I can do to fix this problem.
Before you ask...this has nothing to do with any other component in my computer. It is not heat, the psu, the motherboard, the memory, the hard drives, etc. I have replaced every single piece in this computer and it still occurs. Check out this link for an example of someone else with the same problem: Similar Problem or use a search engine and type: nv4 blue screen. You will see what I mean...this is happening to tons of people.
My question: Is there a fix?
Any help is most appreciated. If there is not a fix, ATI is my only direction I can take.

Richard,
Well you are right about it not using IRQ 5, however, it is not conflicting with any other IRQ that I can see. The view under resources by connection reads:
(ISA) 0 System Timer
(ISA) 3 Communications Port(COM2)
(ISA) 4 Communications Port(COM1)
(ISA) 6 Standard floppy disk controller
(ISA) 8 System CMOS/real time clock
(ISA)11 Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System
(ISA)13 Numeric data processor
(ISA)14 Primary IDE Channel
(ISA)15 Secondary IDE Channel
(PCI) 5 VIA Rev 5 or later USB Universal Host Controller
(PCI) 5 VIA Rev 5 or later USB Universal Host Controller

Please advise. Thank you for the response.

Last week I bought my video card. I didn't have problems until few days ago. Mouse movement in Win XP is choppy, not all the time. I played with sample rate but that didn't help.I tried my old gf2 mx400, and i didn"t have problems. I was reading threads and I realized that the problem may be in power supply. It's a bit old (about 2 years :-) ), iam not sure is it good if it is warm . This problem occurd just after the problem with HD (detection problems, messed HD name..), i checked IDE cable, it's good. 3d expirience is not shownig voltages and temepatures. Fuzzy logic 3 somtimes alerts that the temperature in chassis is 131C!! which is impossible. I sens lack of fps in games.
Please help!

640x480 and above, capture with MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTP

could anyone successfully perform this operation ?
The weird thing is that if I set a capture of something like 5 fps in VirtualDub and 640x480 (I tried with several codecs and thought that decreasing the fps would improve the bandwidth usage), it still doesn't want to capture anything -> 0 frames. The maximum I can get (15% frames lost) is 320x200 at 30 fps. I tried to capture directly to memory as it's supposed to be very fast, no luck.
Maybe my system is not monster enough, don't know.... ?( Or could that be the card which is limited for this ?
MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTP - 1 gig RAM (DDR 333), Athlon XP 2100, IBM ICL35 120 GB - OS : W2K.
WDM 1.16 from MSI-CD. I tried with WDM 1.08 too.

your system is fine for this kind of job....
i have no problem in capturing full pal (768x...) in 30 fps (using included wincoder and mpeg1 or mpeg2 codecs) 60% cpu load on duron @1380
virtual bud will need somethong better then 1,3gh duron but i got no problems with 640x480 divx pro 5.02 25fps on my current sysetm (but the cpu load is high 75-90%) (0% frame lost)
some motion codecs (mjpg) will need both fast cpu and fast hdd....
uncompresed will produce so much data that even very fast hdd's will by to slow
but it is in fact weird 15% frame lost on 320x200 is much to high.. what board are u using?? are the latest 4in1 drivers instaled (very important for w2k) by shure that agpx4 and bus mastering are on... are u using any other extensin cards (tv tuner, off board sound, ide, lan??) if yes try removing them

Ti4200 VTD 8x (MS-8894) Fan rattling

I have had my GeForce4 Ti4200 VTD 8x (MS-8894) for almost a year, and overall I have been very happy with it. The problem is that there is a rattling sound that the fan makes at start up. It used to be quiet enough to ignore, but in the 11 months that I have had the card, its been getting louder and lasting longer.
Any ideas on how to fix it?

a little add on to my last post... I was checking of something else when an idea occured to me. I googled MSI Ti4200 and wire, and sure enough, there were a couple of people complaining of noise from their card, the fan blades were hitting the fan power wire. I checked, and sure enough, there it was. I used a small set of needlenose pliers, and voila! No noise at all on startup. Once again, thanks for your help!

Gf4 Ti4200 8x and TV tuning

Hi,
I am confused about tv drivers installed automatically for my Gf4 Ti4200 8x With Vivo. The card doesn't seem to have any antenna input, and I don't think it suports tv tuning. Why is there a dirver for tv tuner installed?

I had a similar problem with my new 5900 Ultra VTD256. The driver said 128Meg of RAM even though I had 256Meg. I installed several versions of the Detonator drivers and none worked. Finally, I found a beta of the Det 52.13 drivers and it cleared up all my problems! They're also much faster in Halo. You can find them here:
