Scrolling problem with K7N420 Pro

I've got a K7N420 Pro and a Athalon 1800XP running Window XP Home with 768 MB of DDR 2100 RAM. The problem is the scrolling is terribly slow. Doesn't matter what I use, Explorer, Word, or any other software. Doesn't matter if I use the scroll function of the mouse or the scroll bar on the side of the screen.
The screen setting I'm using is 1024x 768 and it seems a little better at 800x600. I've updated the bios to version 2.6 and I've played around with bios settings and nothing has helped.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Also, which graphics/nForce drivers are you using? Please don't tell us the ones from the CD ....

Wow, that was a fast reply. I'm not at home right now, I'm posting from work (notty me). I'll post that info when I get home tonight.
I guess I won't tell you which drivers I'm using :D

Problems with K7N420 Pro

I'm writing to this forum to seek your advice. I am experiencing the BSOD and BKSOD problems.
My Hardware
MSI-6373 (K7N420 Pro) Mainboard
Aopen 300w Power supply
Duron 600 (spitfire)
2x Nanja 256mb DDR PC 2100 memory
CNR riser card
WD 60gig 7200rpm HDD
PCI Ultra DMA ATA/100 controller card
Liteon LT24102B writer
Liteon 52x cd-rom
Pioneer 16x DVDrom
MS optical USB mouse
LITEON 15inch monitor (1555NEL)
SOFTWARE
Windows XP
every nforce board driver could find
every video driver could find
(ranging from windows driver 5.1 from MS to the latest 41.03 from Nvidia)
even the motherboard cd drivers (as a note have installed other drivers after these to see if the later drivers incorrectly set a registry setting or something)
* Reinstalled Windows from scratch between driver installation if problem still occured
SOME FACTS
I have had bios 2.2 to 2.7 and currently using 2.7
I have tried the components above as a bare bones system, as a full blown system, and every combination in between.
Have have windows 2000 and XP, as well as WinME.
Swapped memory to test compatability.
Also for testing have tried Gforce 2 (brand not remembered) MX-200 with 64mb
Disabled Onboard Audio, Video and LAN seperately and together and combinations.
Could gaurantee pc to BSOD whenever It wanted to. Still does. Do believe certain combination of drivers/BIOS affect the stability.
PIO mode problem with ltr24102b if using ATA card, but not in a different machine.
SYMPTOMS
BSOD - During gameplay (NOLF2 Demo, Dungeon Keeper 1 unpatched, Diablo2 and Lord of Destruction as examples, not just the latest games)
One of the BSOD errors was IRQ not equal thing, another was it thought my agp card was a cause and shut me down. NV4disp. Have tried multiple detonator drivers
BkSOD - During Dungeon keeper 1 it black screned me.
During installation of windows XP I have been getting BSOD errors. This was when reset the BIOS to default.
Note: bios 2.2 default did not allow HDD smart to be enable, or it would not even make my monitor light go green, had to reset bios (power off thing)
Even get BSOD errors with not playing games. For example moving files from 1 directory to another, etc
CONCLUSION
As a father with 6 childen and a very limited budget, all my compute componets were purchased through frugal saving, buying secondhand (from people who looked after their hardware), and from money from presents.
Apparently Nvidia are going to release board drivers to help with the problem.
I do not have internet access at home as It is a luxury, and this means to access drivers/etc I have to pay at access points, or ask a friend a favour.
This has been ongoing since date of purchase, and am really sick of it.
Have read to forums and until now have not stated my problems.
In my opinion it is not about people who have a working nforce, but about the ones who don't!
The customer may not be king, but they should feel like they are.
I bought an MSI board based upon reliability, strength and performance, which I hope is true! MSI, take notice of me. I am just a user of your hardware who wants it to work.
Craig

Well, I realise your post was a statement of fact not a request for help 8o or maybe it was, but I missed the asking bit )
Have you considered seeking a RMA for the board???, as a person on limited means you sure have a lot of things stuck on the mobo, not to mention I can't really see when you have a video card attached or not - still as I say your 'statement' will more than likely be read by MSI altthough to be certain they get your message I'd suggest you email them.
Not many here have things like 3 optical drives and 'marginal PSU' but then again I would find it hard to pick if you suffered from brown outs due to equipment loads - anyway good luck with it, your right nVidia has taken notice and said it's their problem not MSI so a fix for those unfortunates is on it's way

Sound problems with K7N420 pro

Hello
I have a mainboard K7N420pro with windows 98 SE, I installed every drivers, and I can't hear any sound. I tried to reinstall windows with no external peripherical and the the result is same. In fact I can hear sound very low, when I turn up my amplifier to the maximum...
Does anybody knows the solution to this problem ?
Thanks in advance
JU

Did you read the hints from nVidia concerning 98se?
What about the audio jumpers? in the manual..
You pluged into the right hole?
installing nForce Core drivers on win98se
Installing the Audio Drivers
Use the following procedure to install nForce Audio drivers:
1. Extract the Audio driver package to a temporary location.
Use the drivers from Audio Driver package to enumerate all unknown media
class devices.
2. Go to the Device Manager (STARTØCONTROL PANELØSYSTEMØDEVICE MANAGER).
3. Look for the following devices:
Unknown Drivers
- NVIDIA Audio Codec Interface
- NVIDIA Media Controller Processor
Sound, Video, and Game Controllers
- NVIDIA nForce Audio Codec Interface
- NVIDIA nForce MCP Audio Processing Unit
Note: Various nForce Audio items Under Sound, Video and Game
Controllers will be replaced when the System Devices are updated.
4. Update the drivers using the ones saved into the temporary location in
step 1.
5. Restart your system.
No sound, sucks!

HT201380 keep having scrolling problems with Maverick on both iMac and Mac Pro despite downloading mail software update

Have scrolling problems with Maverick despite downloading mail update on both IMAC and Mac Pro
Have to reboot and it helps for awhile then stalls again

The Mac OS X 10.4.7 Update introduced connection issues as a result of (according to the documentation) "Mail now supports connecting to mail servers through a SOCKS proxy". This probably has nothing to do with your problem, but it'd be worth going to System Preferences > Network and making sure the SOCKS Proxy is not enabled in the network configuration used to connect to the Internet.
Also, it looks like the crashes you're talking about are actually freezes, i.e. Mail becomes unresponsive rather than quitting unexpectedly. In Mail, open Window > Activity Viewer, and see whether Mail displays there what it's doing when it freezes. Actually, you may be able to avoid having to force quit Mail by canceling whatever it's doing (by clicking on the red stop icon of the activity).
Reinstalling Mail will probably accomplish nothing, but it might be worth reinstalling the Combo Update for the type of machine and the version of Mac OS X you're using (which you would have to do anyway if you wanted to reinstall Mail):
Mac OS X 10.4.7 Combo Update for Intel
Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Installing software updates
Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update, and no applications should be running while installing it.

Does anyone still have problems with Premier Pro on Maverick? and is there any known fix?

Does anyone still have problems with Premier Pro on Maverick? and is there any known fix?

I know OSX 10.9 Mavericks introduced a power saving feature called App Nap which is meant to slow down applications that it determins are inactive (or when minimized). This would mostly likely cause problems if you're dynamically linking After Effects comps to your timeline or sometimes exporting to Media Encoder.
Try disabling App Nap for all your Adobe App files...
Go to your Applications folder
Go into individual Adobe app folders (ie. Adobe Premiere Pro CC)
Right-click on the Adobe app file (ie. Adobe Premiere Pro CC.app) and select Get Info
When the info window opens up, add a checkmark beside "Prevent App Nap"
Restart the application
This fixed all my performance issues.

HI, I just bought Photoshop CS5 and I have a problem with HDR pro

HI, I just bought Photoshop CS5 and I have a problem with HDR pro . when I am trying to mount 3 images together it act in a strange way ( the images appear and disappear many times) then when the window with the result appear and I say ok it open up in photoshop as a single image ( in the layers there is just 1 photo) and when I am trying to work it up with the Plug in/filter HDR Effex Pro (Nik softwear) a pop up window appear saying that the file is missing and the operation it is not possible. Why and what is happening ? Someone can help me ?

This is normal operation. The output from HDR pro does not produce a layered file. You make all your adjustments in the Nik Plug-in. Once Nik has finished you then make any rinal changes in Photoshop. Trying to use NIK again on the image in Photoshop is not the way to do this.
When HDR pro comes up do you see all the presets and controls? Presets on the left and controls on the right

Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
This, Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.70, is the current version of Flash. It should work with Snow Leopard or later.

Apleworks scrolling problem on MacBook Pro

On my new MacBook Pro 17", I noticed that track pad two finger scrolling is very jumpy in AppleWorks documents, particularly in tryin to scroll back up through a document. You have to use a different kind of motion, sweeping very swiftly up and lifting your fingers from the track pad before stopping, otherwise it misinterprets it as downward motion.
Is there any solution for this? I cannot use Pages until they actually incorporate a spreadsheet module into it, and I don't really want to go to Office.

I have the same problem. I played around with the trackpad panel in system preferences but had no luck in funding a solution. At least you know it's not a problem with your machine. It seems that some other applications don't play nice with the trackpad either, eg FileMaker Pro 7 doesn't recognise scrolling at all either up or down.
I tend to use a mouse with my MacBook and both AppleWorks and Word work fine and respond to the wheel, Filemaker doesn't respond to the wheel.

Problems with officejet pro 8100 and Lion?

I just bought a new HP Officejet Pro 8100 Wireless and I have not been able to get it to work correctly. It's hooked up and all the software seems to work but it prints very, very slowly. It takes about 2 minutes to print a color page. Is there some known problem with OJPRO8100s and Macs with OS X Lion on them? I downloaded v12.14.0 of the printer package from HP, uninstalled what came with the printer, and installed the latest and greatest. Didn't make a bit of difference.

SSD-problem with MacBook Pro 13" (Early 2011)

Hi there,
I've tried to use two different SSDs in my MacBook Pro 13" (early 2011). The first one (Samsung 840 Series, 500GB) crashed after two days: the beachball appeared and after a restart there was this question mark-symbol on my screen: no system found. Had to send this SSD back to Amazon. A few days later I've bought a new one, a SanDisk Extreme with 450GB. I've used it for two days, then my system crashed again and after a restart of my Mac I couldn't get any further than to the grey apple-symbol. Even the recovery partition didn't work anymore. Does anyone of you have the same problem with his (or her) MacBook Pro 13" (early 2011) - and any ideas for a solution?
Thanks for your answers!

Printer problems with Officejet Pro 8500 A910

Dear all,
I have been given as a present an Officejet Pro 8500 A910 (serie number CN16LDM020 and product number CM756A). The people whom I have got it from already had some problems with the printer heads. I have accepted the printer, because I want to have it working again. I do encounter some problems however. I hope you kind people on the forum can help me out and get this thing working again. As a side note: I am only interested in using the scanner, printer (only black and white - I do not print in colour) and e-printing (I understand that it is possible to email documents to printer, so that they are printed whilst you are somewhere else).
Upon installation I have conneted the internet to my wi-fi. Upon installation it made some test prints, whereby the black dots were good, but the cyan and other colours were not. When I now turn off the installed printer and switch it on again it takes the printer about 5 - 7 minutes to initialize. On the touch screen of the printer it is said "Checking printer, this might take 5 minutes", "Checking printheads", "Aligning printheads" and alike notifications. After 5 - 7 minutes the printer gives the following notification: " Failure notice. Alignment failed. Refer to device documentation for details." When I then push the question mark on the touch screen the following notidication is given: " Alignment failed. Check printer quality of the current print job. If it is not satisfactory, try aligning the printer to see if that improves the quality. To align the printhead again, touch (home), touch (arrow right), touch Tools, and then touch Align Printhead." When I follow these instructions, the same thing happens. I have tried the option "Clean printheads" under "Tools". The test prints that come out are again good in black and white and not good in colour.
The ink level of the cartridges is very low for Yellow, Magenta and Cyan. For Black the printer gives a question mark. The expiry date of the cartridges is in 2015. The information on the Self Test Diagnostic Page (you get when you print a report from checking the ink cartridges) gives the following status:
Printhead status
Printhead health: Good (for both Black/Yellow and Magenta/Cyan)
Serial: 7735960 (Black/Yellow) and 7744345 (Magenta/Cyan)
End of warranty: mid-2013
Accumulated ink usage (ml): Black 99/Yellow 71, Magenta 57/Cyan 58
Refilled supply:
Detected in printhead/printer? For all cartidges "yes".
When I try to print a document from Word on my MacBook (which runs on Mac OS X 10.6.8) and the printer is on stand-by, Word recognizes the printer, starts with the print order but then comes with the notifications "Printer offline" and "Cannot find printer" and postpones the print order. Today I reset the printer and the print job that I had before the reset (which was postponed) came out.
Today, I printed a document whilst the printer was not on stand-by (the touch screen was on home menu) and the print was well (it was only black and white). After the print, the printer also made a print report. Again, the colour was bad, but black ink was good. After that print report, the printer started aligning again. After 5 minutes it gave the above-mentioned failure notice (" Failure notice. Alignment failed. Refer to device documentation for details.").
I would assume that the first thing that I should do is get new cartridges. However, since I only print black and white, can't I just buy the Black Ink and disable the other cartridges? Then, I am thinking of not buying HP cartridges (since the warranty term is already over). What cartridges do you reccomend (price-quality)? If new cartridges are installed (previous owner had same problems with full cartridges) and the problems (with print heads) are not solved, what should I do?
On a second note, I want to use the option of printing online. In other words, give a print order on my Iphone to the printer so that it starts printing at home. How do I set this up? How can I test this?
I would be very obliged with your feedback on the above.
Kind regards,
Onno

Hey Onno,
I see you have several items listed about your Officejet Pro 8500a (A910 series) printer. The main issue that stands out is the print quality issue. I would advise starting here with your printer.
From your information I can see that refill or remanufacture cartridges have been used in this printer at some point. It is possible that the ink from these cartridges have damaged the internal ink system of the printer. If you have performed all the troubleshooting steps for the print quality issue you are experiencing, then the next step is going to be replacing the printheads of the unit.
Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues
The 8500a requires all cartridges be available even if you are simply printing in B&W. If the cartridges are low, then you will have to replace the cartridges as needed. Typically by the design of this printer, however, print quality issues do not follow ink levels in the cartridges as ink is piped to the internal printheads, thus even with empty cartridges there is some ink remaining in the system.
The printheads for the 8500a can be found at most HP certified retailers if you decide to attempt replacing them as a step towards resolving the issue. As to the cartridges, I would advise using genuine HP cartridges as HP ink is designed with HP printers in mind. For information about refilled/remanufactured cartridges please click here.
Hope this helps in getting the print quality issue alleviated,
Jason
