Problems with RX300se on Nforce4

Hi guys and gals
I own a msi rx300se td128e (pcx) and am having alot of trouble with it on my ECS Nforce4-A939 motherboard ,amd64 3200+processor . I install the card and then installed the drivers and all seems to be fine and the computer tells me to restart the computer, so I do and am greeted with blue blocks over my welcome screen then it loads my desktop and all icons,taskbar is messed up with square blocks and corruption. I tryed playing around with the Catalyst 6.1 settings but with no joy the preview videos are all messed up so the machine is not useable with the drivers installed. I have updated my bios drivers but it didnt make any difference . so does anyone have any ideas on this matter, thanks in advance

I too have had no issues with the Droid X and 2.2. I do not text, so I can not speak about that. However, I do Email using three different accounts and have had no issues. I do scan the net going to several various sites, again with no issues. And I do tether my Droid to my lap top to exchange various files, including pictures and videos, and again, no issues. I do listen to streaming music using Pandora and play a couple of simple games for my simple mind, again no problems. The Droid X is probably one of the best phones out there.
Question mortb,   When you tether your phone to your laptop, do you use the hotspot feature or do you use a USB cable?
I asked in another thread and one of the mods told me to just use the hotspot feature. He said the speed difference was negligable and it was easier to connect. 
Thanks,

  • Problems with Nforce4 install - audio/ethernet/raid

    Just installed my Neo4 Platinum Nforce4 with XP Home SP2. I have a problem with the drivers. I went to the Nvidia site and download both the Unified Drivers and the standalone Kit for XP.
    The unified driver set didn't seem to do anything at all, it seemed to quit half way through the install without giving me any finished message. A quick look in device manager and I saw about seven items with yellow warnings!
    I then tried the standalone kit which worked better, however after the install I am still left with 3 items in device manager that are giving me warnings. Multimedia Audio Controller, Ethernet Controll & Serial ATA RAID controller. I have no audio at all, I just the BIOS is all is OK, as it is for everything else. In the sound section of control panel there is no audio hardware available.
    Can anyone help please? I dunno what I could have done wrong. It's a fresh install.

    I have now done eveything you've said. I installed the Nforce drivers off the CD, and then installed Realtek, Ethernet & RAID via Live update. I also tried to do the NVMixer & Nvidia Audio install install. I installed  realtek from the add/remove software menu. I then went into add new hardware and did manual install, show all hardware, have disk. Then I browsed to the Nvidia Audio codec folder on my desktop that I download. I was given an option of two drivers "nvmcp" & "nvmpu". I picked the first and ended up choosed "Nvidia audio codec interface" which then installed. It then appeared in device manager. However, when I clicked the audio panel in control panel I still get no audio device installed? I then tried to install NVMixer and when I try to run the application I get this message:
    "the application cannot start because it could not detect any NVIDIA Nforce hardware on your system...."
    What am I doing wrong? When I did the driver install there were two things listed in each driver "nvidia audio codec interface" and also "nvidia audio processing unit", which should I be choosing? Even if I try and installed the "MVP audio processing unit" I'll get a code(10) device cannot start in device manager. This is kinda confusing.
    I also wondered about the RAID controller software. The silicon image drivers that came on the MSI seem horrible, they installed Java too. Is there any way to disable this controller? In the BIOS I can only see one option to enable RAID and when this is enabled device mananger will show an error on an "unknown device". I assume this is the NVRaid? and speaking of NVraid which is mentioned in big fat type on the back of the MSI box, so far I've seen or heard none of it during this installtion?

  • Big Problem With Sound

    Hello all! i have a problem with my Iphone 3gs. the other day i was listening to music through the external speaker and had my phone plugged into its charger when all of a sudden the music just cut out out of nowhere. so then i pushed play on it but no sound came out. so i went to test a game, again no sound. checked ringtones also no sounds. so then i plugged in headphones and all sounds work through headphones. i looked the problem up on google and i found out that i could be an issue with my headphone jack(phone saying headphones are plugged in but actually nothing is plugged in). ok i know for a fact that is not what my phones problem is cause when i push the volume buttons it doesnt say headphones and the volume bar comes up as well. one thing that did work for me is that i tapped the bottom of my phone on my table and the sound started working again for like 5 seconds but it cut out again like it did the first time...please help, thank you very much

    I am like a packrat. I don't throw anything away when it come to hardware. If I ever decide to sell my equipment I have the orginal box it came in. It must be human nature, buyers of computer hardware like to have the box that the hardware came in. It is really no big deal in opening a computer case. I do it all of the time. Just make a mental note of the cables that are attached on the rear of the pc, unplug them. open up the case and look at your soundcard. If you brought the retail Extreme Music card for example

  • Sound Problems with Mainbord....Please help!

    MSI K8N SLI Platinum nForce4 Ultra 4DDR-DIMM 3PCI 3PCIe SATA-II Raid Audio GB-LAN Firewire Socket939 ATX
    Hi are having huge problems with my sound.
    Got all the gadgets last week. And have built the computer now. Everything is installed, all the drivers i got with the Box.
    Now the problem is that the sound i very "crappy". It sound´s  like a broken speaker. i have tried with different speakers and the problem persist.
    Ive tried changing drivers and all that, and checked all setting. But nothing changes...
    I get sound, but it sounds like hell. Cant almost not hear what´s playing or what are said through the speaker.
    Is it a hardware problem, something broken on Mainbord??????
    Somebody know?
    Please help.

    Just as a suggestion. . . .
    I would remove the soundcard and clean the edge pin connectors.  The "static" type sound could be comming from a resistive connection in the edge connector.  You may also try running dxdiag from your "start / run" menu and see if the sound results are better.
    Also, (even though the sound card is new), you may want to blow out the pin connector in the back of the card (where you plug in your speakers) and try reseating your speaker cable again.
    Someone above mentioned power.  That could easily be an issue if you have alot of hardware and a power supply that is not up to par with your gear.
    EDIT:  For some reason, I thought you had a soundblaster card.  So, pls forgive the card removal information.  just trying to help!
    Just some stuff to check. . . GL!

  • Fsb problem with Neo4 Ultra

    I have been having a problem with my neo4 ultra that seems to be pretty common.
    I can not boot past a fsb of 219 reliably.
    My system is
    AMD64 3200+
    MSI K8N Neo4 nForce4 Ultra
    Wavemaster Case
    OCZ Gold Series Dual 1GB DDR PC-3200
    Thermalright XP-90
    OCZ ModStream 520W
    Sapphire Radeon X800 XL
    I am doing it all with clockgen to up my FSB to find the best results. I am on 1.24 BIOS
    My Basic BIOS settings are
    FSB = 219
    HTT = 4x
    Mem at 166 Voltage at 2.85
    Mem Timmings at 2.5-3-2-8 1T
    CPU 10x startup - cpu-z reports voltage at 1.58
    Rasied FSB by 5 at a time to 251 and super pi failed.
    Changed vcore to 1.60 and the best I could get super pi to run at was 247. So I decided to start fine tunning my memory.
    I set mem to 180 2.5-3-3-10-1T
    Used clockgen again and what was interesting was FSB of 255 passed with a superpi of 34 sec. Now it failed at fsb258.
    Changed mem timmings to 200 2.5-3-3-10-1T
    And best I could get was fsb=230 and superpi failed. I decided to keet the 180 divider and see how far I can drop the timming at 180.
    So I ended up at this
    FSB =251
    HTT 4x
    Mem 180 2-3-2-8 1T volts = 2.85
    CPU 10x Volts cpu-z reports 1.63
    Runs prime stable all night at these settings.
    But here is the thing if I go into the BIOS and change fsb to 221 My machine will not boot.
    I am guessing the power up sequence is wrong in the BIOS

    I cannot boot at over FSB 219, either. Will overclock fine with Clockgen when in XP (have tried up to 270 fsb, and the CPU will run 2574mhz at 1.5). But have to reset bios if I set the FSB over 219, regardless of memory HTT, vcore, etc , settings. I've been watching other forums and have seen MANY people with the same problem. One of the things I have in common with a lot of other people with this problem is that my Winnie 3500+ Retail will not run much over stock with the low vcore that this board gives as default. I have used Core Center, Sisoft Sandra 2005, and CPUz 1.27 to check vcore once in windows. All of them show 1.36 for vcore. That's lower than default of 1.4. And when I set the vcore for 1.55 and the overvoltage thingy to highest percentage in bios, all the monitoring apps show 1.526, which is waaay lower than it should be (1.67). Now, I will concede that the monitoring apps could be wrong. But, I believe the 219mhz POST issue is due to the start up vcore and multiplier is PROBABLY default at post. So, if your FSB is set for more than the CPU will run at it's default vcore and multiplie + set FSB, then the board freezies at POST. If the bios would just boot at whatever you set into the bios, then there wouldn't be a problem, unless yoiu have set thingswaay too high. Then it would just do what it does now, not POST, and you would have to reset the bios. There are a lot of Winchester core CPU's out there that will run high mhz at default voltages. But, there are a lot of newer Winnie's that won't. Mine is one of them.
    Now it seems that there is a limitation on the board of 1.55 vcore with a Winnie. Even using the overvoltage setting. What is that all about? You put overclocking friendly on the retail box, on the product page on the main site, and all the review sites say overclocking potential is graet, and then you limit the vcore to 1.5v? Crazy logic (or should I say "Fuzzy Logic")   I am close to eBaying this board (only had it 2 - 3 days, but won't send it back to ZZF for replacement as all of them could have the same problem) and go with the DFI or the Abit Fatality.
    Am I saying all this right?

  • Any problems with K8N neo4-FI and Creative X-FI Xtreme Music ???

    Hi. Anyone having problems with the mentioned combination. (I've heard about incompatibility issue with creative and nforce4 chipsets) and since I have the mentioned board I would like to avoid future problems and maybe go with Audigy 4 instead. Thanks in advance.

    Here's MSIs technical support answer:
    Sometimes before, there was incompatibility issues between the X-FI Xtreme card and motherboards based on nforce 4 chipset. And then, Creative official has stated it existed on almost noforce4 motherboard, not only some or one manufacturer, so user met this issue should contact Creative.
    But from Creative's official statement as you find, they thought it caused by nforce4 chip, but our motherboard chipset is from NVIDIA. If NVIDIA had no plan to change the chipset architecture, we can't solve this issue. So we suggest you'd better not use this audio card if you use this MB.
    Best wishes,
    MSI Technical Support
    Now when I think about it, I have been using SB live 5.1 for years now and I have changed several platforms (VIA KT 400, Nforce2 (Soltek, Epox), Nforce 3 (soltek) and finaly Nforce 4 and have noticed strange behaviour with many of them in combination with mentioned card (I had to remove additional raid controller card because of skipping video and audio during video capturing on Nforce 2 platform). Now with SB live 5.1 removed, on MSI neo 4-FI it seems that occasional freezing of video on my DVB-T Pinnacle card has gone. I was convinced that the reason was weak reception (although my neighbour from just a few blocks away had excellent picture), but now I am not so shure. I don't know if I want to risk the possibility of repeating all those problems again even if it' "The most powerful audio processor in the world".

  • A problem with threads

    I am trying to implement some kind of a server listening for requests. The listener part of the app, is a daemon thread that listens for connections and instantiates a handling daemon thread once it gets some. However, my problem is that i must be able to kill the listening thread at the user's will (say via a sto button). I have done this via the Sun's proposed way, by testing a boolean flag in the loop, which is set to false when i wish to kill the thread. The problem with this thing is the following...
    Once the thread starts excecuting, it will test the flag, find it true and enter the loop. At some point it will LOCK on the server socket waiting for connection. Unless some client actually connects, it will keep on listening indefinatelly whithought ever bothering to check for the flag again (no matter how many times you set the damn thing to false).
    My question is this: Is there any real, non-theoretical, applied way to stop thread in java safely?
    Thank you in advance,
    Lefty

    This was one solution from the socket programming forum, have you tried this??
    public Thread MyThread extends Thread{
         boolean active = true;          
         public void run(){
              ss.setSoTimeout(90);               
              while (active){                   
                   try{                       
                        serverSocket = ss.accept();
                   catch (SocketTimeoutException ste){
                   // do nothing                   
         // interrupt thread           
         public void deactivate(){               
              active = false;
              // you gotta sleep for a time longer than the               
              // accept() timeout to make sure that timeout is finished.               
              try{
                   sleep(91);               
              }catch (InterruptedException ie){            
              interrupt();
    }

  • Problem with Threads and a static variable

    I have a problem with the code below. I am yet to make sure that I understand the problem. Correct me if I am wrong please.
    Code functionality:
    A timer calls SetState every second. It sets the state and sets boolean variable "changed" to true. Then notifies a main process thread to check if the state changed to send a message.
    The problem as far I understand is:
    Assume the timer Thread calls SetState twice before the main process Thread runs. As a result, "changed" is set to true twice. However, since the main process is blocked twice during the two calls to SetState, when it runs it would have the two SetState timer threads blocked on its synchronized body. It will pass the first one, send the message and set "changed" to false since it was true. Now, it will pass the second thread, but here is the problem, "changed" is already set to false. As a result, it won't send the message even though it is supposed to.
    Would you please let me know if my understanding is correct? If so, what would you propose to resolve the problem? Should I call wait some other or should I notify in a different way?
    Thanks,
    B.D.
    Code:
    private static volatile boolean bChanged = false;
    private static Thread objMainProcess;
       protected static void Init(){
            objMainProcess = new Thread() {
                public void run() {
                    while( objMainProcess == Thread.currentThread() ) {
                       GetState();
            objMainProcess.setDaemon( true );
            objMainProcess.start();
        public static void initStatusTimer(){
            if(objTimer == null)
                 objTimer = new javax.swing.Timer( 1000, new java.awt.event.ActionListener(){
                    public void actionPerformed( java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt){
                              SetState();
        private static void SetState(){
            if( objMainProcess == null ) return;
            synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
                bChanged = true;
                try{
                    objMainProcess.notify();
                }catch( IllegalMonitorStateException e ) {}
        private static boolean GetState() {
            if( objMainProcess == null ) return false;
            synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
                if( bChanged) {
                    SendMessage();
                    bChanged = false;
                    return true;
                try {
                    objMainProcess.wait();
                }catch( InterruptedException e ) {}
                return false;
        }

    Thanks DrClap for your reply. Everything you said is right. It is not easy to make them alternate since SetState() could be called from different places where the state could be anything else but a status message. Like a GREETING message for example. It is a handshaking message but not a status message.
    Again as you said, There is a reason I can't call sendMessage() inside setState().
    The only way I was able to do it is by having a counter of the number of notifies that have been called. Every time notify() is called a counter is incremented. Now instead of just checking if "changed" flag is true, I also check if notify counter is greater than zero. If both true, I send the message. If "changed" flag is false, I check again if the notify counter is greater than zero, I send the message. This way it works, but it is kind of a patch than a good design fix. I am yet to find a good solution.
    Thanks,
    B.D.

  • Problem with threads running javaw

    Hi,
    Having a problem with multi thread programming using client server sockets. The program works find when starting the the application in a console using java muti.java , but when using javaw multi.java the program doesnt die and have to kill it in the task manager. The program doesnt display any of my gui error messages either when the server disconnect the client. all works find in a console. any advice on this as I havent been able to understand why this is happening? any comment would be appreciated.
    troy.

    troy,
    Try and post a minimum code sample of your app which
    does not work.
    When using javaw, make sure you redirect the standard
    error and standard output streams to file.
    Graeme.Hi Graeme,
    I dont understand what you mean by redirection to file? some of my code below.
    The code works fine under a console, code is supposed to exit when the client (the other server )disconnects. the problem is that but the clientworker side of the code still works. which under console it doesnt.

  • Problem with threads and camera.

    Hi everybody!
    I've a problem with taking snapshot.
    I would like to display a loading screen after it take snapshot ( sometimes i
    have to wait few seconds after i took snapshot. Propably photo is being taken in time where i have to wait).
    I was trying to use threads but i didn't succeed.
    I made this code:
    display.setCurrent(perform);               
            new Thread(new Runnable(){
                public void run() {               
                    while((!performing.isShown()) && (backgroundCamera.isShown())){
                        Thread.yield();
                    notifyAll();
            }).start();
            new Thread(new Runnable(){
                public void run() {
                    try {
                        this.wait();                   
                    } catch(Exception e) {
                        exceptionHandler(e);
                    photo = camera.snapshot();                               
                    display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
            }).start();This code is sometimes showing performing screen but sometimes no.
    I don't know why. In my opinion performing.isShown() method isn't working correctly.
    Does anyone have some idea how to use threads here?

    Hi,
    I've finally managed to work this fine.
    The code:
           Object o = new Object();
           display.setCurrent(perform);               
            new Thread(new Runnable(){
                public void run() {               
                    while(!performing.isShown()){
                        Thread.yield();
                   synchronized(o) {
                      o.notify();
            }).start();
            new Thread(new Runnable(){
                public void run() {
                    try {
                        synchronized(o) {
                           o.wait(1);
                    } catch(Exception e) {
                        exceptionHandler(e);
                    photo = camera.snapshot();                               
                    display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
            }).start();

  • Problem with threads hanging

    We have a problem where our application stops responding after a few days of usage. Things will for fine for a day or two, and then pretty quickly threads will start getting hung up, usually in places where they are allocating memory
    We are running WebLogic 8.1 SP2 on Sun JDK 1.4.2_04 on Solaris 8 using the alternate threading model and the -server hotspot vm. We are running pretty much the same code that we had no problems with under WebLogic 6.1 SP4 and Sun JDK 1.3.1.
    A thread dump usually shows that some or all of our execute threads are in the state "waiting for monitor entry" even though they are not currently waiting on any java locks. Here is a sample thread from the thread dump (we have ~120 threads so I don't want to post the full dump).

    String.java line 1446 for this jdk allocates a new String object, and all the other threads in this state also are creating new objects or arrays, etc.
    We've done a pstack on this process when it's in this state, and the threads that are in the "waiting for monitor entry" that look like they're allocating memory are all waiting on the same lwp_mutex_lock with some allocation method that's calling into the native TwoGenerationCollectorPolicy.mem_allocate_work (see pstack output below for the same thread as in the thread dump above)

    Has anyone ever seen anything like this? I'm trying to figure out if this is caused by something we're doing, or something relating to our environment and jvm options. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the reply - I'm testing our app with the +UseConcMarkSweepGC now in our test environment to make sure it doesn't cause any problems there.  Unfortunately the only place we've had this problem is on the production server, so it's extra difficult debugging this. 
    We're using the following memory options:
    -ms512m -mx512m -XX:NewSize=128m -XX:PermSize=192m -XX:MaxNewSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=192m -XX:SurvivorRatio=8and the following debugging options, as we've also been seeing OutOfMemoryErrors ( see http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=37&thread=522354&tstart=45&trange=15 )
    -verbosegc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGCBTW, which c++filt version and options are you using? Our Solaris boxes only seem to have the GNU version installed. I was trying to run that on some of the other stack traces and wasn't getting anywhere, and didn't know if because it was GNU version wouldn't work on something compiled with the Sun compiler.
    Thanks!

  • Problem with threads and ProgressMonitor

    Dear Friends:
    I have a little problem with a thread and a ProgressMonitor. I have a long time process that runs in a thread (the thread is in an separate class). The thread has a ProgressMonitor that works fine and shows the tasks progress.
    But I need deactivate the main class(the main class is the user interface) until the thread ends.
    I use something like this:
    LongTask myTask=new LongTask();
    myTask.start();
    myTask.join();
    Now, the main class waits for the task to end, but the progress monitor don`t works fine: it shows only the dialog but not the progress bar.
    What's wrong?

    Is the dialog a modal dialog? This can block other UI updates.
    In general, you should make sure that it isn't modal, and that your workThread has a fairly low priority so that the UI can do its updating

  • Problem with threads and/or memory

    I'm developing an application where there are 3 threads. One of them sends a request to the other, and if the 2nd can't answer it, it sends it to the 3rd (similar to CPU -> CACHE -> MEMORY). When i run the program with 1000-10.000 requests, no problem occurs. When i run it with 300.000-1.000.000 requests, it sometimes hangs. Is this a problem with the garbage collector, or should it be related to the threads mecanism.
    (note: eache thread is in execution using a finite state machine)

    i had been running the program inside Netbeans.
    Running the jar using the command line outside
    Netbeans i have no more problems... Does Netbeans use
    it's own JVM?Depends how you set it up, but look under the options. There are settings for the compiler and jvm that it uses.

  • Installation problem with NW'04 SR1: database connection failed

    Hi all,
    while installing NW '04 SR1 on Windows Server 2003 SP1 and MS SQL Server 2000 SP4 I ran into an error related to the database connection. While performing the step "Load Java Database content" SAPinst crashes with the message
    com.sap.sql.log.OpenSQLException: Could not load class com.ddtek.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver.
    The connection to the SLQ Server with e.g. the Query Analyzer is OK. I had a problem with this installation setup before (have a look at the corresponding <a href="https://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=338638&tstart=0">thread</a> ), the JDBC drivers where missing on the installation master but after copying them in the right direction the installation went on with no problem up to this point...
    Has anybody an idea what could have happened here? Is this maybe a problem connected to the one I recently had
    Below I attached the sapinst.log and jload.log with more detailed messages.
