Strange problems with video with new P965 Plat

I just put together a new machine and I'm stumped by a video problem I'm having. I *think* its any graphics using hardware acceleration.
Specifically: Menu fade-in, windows' built-in 3d screen savers, and games. These all seem to be running in single-digit FPS, games unaffected by resolution, AA, etc. Other oddities: in BIOS menu, the animated gradient bar at the top which moves very slowly, and bios is slow to respond to the keyboard (using a usb keyboard); Windows setup from CD runs VERY slowly; Windows boot up logo fades in VERY slowly (dragging down the whole boot up process) but once the loading bar starts to move the process is very quick.
Here's the kicker: It all runs great otherwise. Games install and start up fast, at high settings image quality is superb (but slow no matter what), web browsing is quick, etc.  I tried a different video card (ATI branded x1950pro instead of Diamond branded same model) and the problem persists, although Windows installed much faster.
I've tried all recent Catalyst drivers (and .net 2.0), have DirectX 9c, have the latest chipset drivers from Intel.  Is the motherboard having pci-e problems? This all continues despite several clean XP installs.  Also, installing .inf drivers from the MSI-included CD kills USB, although Intel's drivers online work.

Well, after putting on more than the token amount of thermal paste that was originally there, CoreTemp reports that while running Orthos the temp holds at 56C.  CPU-Z, which is the only program to correctly report 266x8=2.13ghz, shows no throttling.  Nor does it throttle when those previously mentioned games are running, or even the simple little things like screen savers.  These are not problems of marginally slower performance than I would like, it's a problem of certain applications running unusably slow.
Ok. Temps are normal now.
Hmm I think you said that you used intel's chipset drivers?
I'm my self running e6400 with msi 965 neo-f using MSI's drivers. I also have MSI x1950pro, which is currently running on MSI's modified drivers, tho Ati's seemed to work ok too. I changed them for some no use debugging when trying to figure out my sluggis gfx (pci slot2 + Jmicron problem).
I also found out that installing MSI's usb driver, kills the usb ports. (aye I also have usb keyb & mouse). So i just hit reboot button after they were installed. Next time windows booted up usb worked. If I had know this, I would have gone power saving settings in windows, and enabled shutdown, if powerbutton is pressed. Tho Windows didn't broke because of one crash start, its used to it
If changing chipset drivers from intels to msi's don't help I dunno what to try.
Oh BIOS.
I had bios 1.5 in this board when I bought it, after that I have been updating BIOS with newest beta right after they release one. I'm now using 1.6B15, as there was some thread on forums that released 1.6 version of BIOS had some problems.
But as I said earlier, I have only encountered sluggis gfx, if I'm using some PCI card in slot2 and Jmicron is enabled. My BIOS patching is due to scsi controller problems not gfx so dunno if it will help at all.

  • Strange problem with new iBook G3 battery

    Hi everyone!
    I'm facing a strange problem with the new battery I've bought for my 12" iBook G3 800MHz (full specs PowerPC G3 800MHz CPU, 640MB SDRAM 133MHz, DVD-ROM, 20GB HDD, running OSX 10.4.11)..So I've got this laptop two months ago from a friend who wasn't using it anymore, and the original battery was almost dead: 141mAh of maximum charge was giving me about 6 minutes of work. I've recived the new battery yesterday (it was completely charge-less: the indicator lights weren't working), but it has this curious problem: when the iBook is off, it won't charge. I gave it a full charge with the laptop on, up to 100% (4414mAh), and was working fine. But this morning it started going crazy: osx gets bad charge readings, since the percentage jumps randomly from the correct value (and there stays about 2-3 minutes) to 3-4% or 100%. The battery itself is working: only readings are really bad. And there's still the odd "I'm not charging while iBook's off" problem..I'm currently trying to calibrate the battery: could that be the problem? I've already made PRAM, NVRAM and PMU resets..ideas? Thanks

    Before sending it back try a PMU and PRAM reset.

  • Use old HD with new P965 Platinum MB. Possible?

    If I wanted to use my present HD with my new P965 Plat board, I have to boot with the OS CD and do a "repair" or a "install", or is this even possible?  Has anyone tried/done it?  Thanks.

    Your "old HD" is P-ATA (IDE), right?
    Theoretically it should not be a problem, if there is still room for a second drive on the JMicron IDE-port. 
    However, you should install a fresh XP SP2 onto that drive using JMicron Drivers (F6).  Just "reparing" the existing installation might not work properly.

  • Strange Problems With Display and Permissions Since 10.5.1 update.

    Since I've done the 10.5.1 update I have been having a strange problem with my desktop and dock displays. On my desktop I have these strange lines that appear any time I log in or open any application, the lines never go away and change locations on the screen once I open an application or move a window. My dock has the reflective shelf for about half of it, the rest is a dull grey. I've also had problems with verifying and repairing my permissions. I can never actually complete either permissions task. I've used some third party apps, they always fail as well. The only time I can actually repair my permissions is by booting in to single user mode and doing a fsck -f command. When I boot back in to Leopard and try to use the Disk Utility to repair, it continues to fail.
    I'm not sure if the video problem I am having stems from a permissions issue or possibly a corrupt video driver. Either way, I've done a lot research and haven't found anyone with the same problems I have been having so I thought I would give these forums a shot.
    I am using a PowerMac G4 Quicksilver with dual 800Mhz, 1.5gb RAM, and a GeForce4 Ti 4600 128mb video card.
    Here is a screen shot of the line and dock problem.
    Here is a screen shot of my "About This Mac.
    If anyone could lend some light on this issue, I would greatly appreciate it.

  • Strange problem with Adobe Acrobat X (crash without a trace)

    Hi,
    I have a strange problem with Adobe Acrobat. It happens totally randomly, it leaves no signs in system logs.
    What is happening: during my work Adobe Acrobat sudennly crashes. After a crash I cannot run it again - system seems to do something for a second, but then nothing happends. When i look into taks manager - there are no processes of Acrobat.exe. It just doesn't want to run. What I need to do is to reinstall whole Adobe Acrobat - which requires restart.
    I've already tried to restart system after crash, it doesn't help - reinstall is required.
    Sometimes everyting is fine for a 3 months, sometimes crash happens a week after the previous one. It also happens in very different situations (somtimes  while opening a file, sometimes when doing something simple, sometimes in more complex tasks).
    Has anyone encountered a similar problem?

  • Strange Problem with a Vector wraped inside a Hashtable

    Hi all ,
    I'm having a strange problem with a Vector wraped within a Hashtable inherited Class.
    My goal is to keep the order of the elements of the Hashtable so what I did was to extend Hashtable and wrap a Vector Inside of it.
    Here is what it looks like :
    package somepackage.util;
    import java.util.Enumeration;
    import java.util.Hashtable;
    import java.util.Vector;
    public class OrderedHashTable extends Hashtable {
        private Vector index;
        /** Creates a new instance of OrderedHashTable */
        public OrderedHashTable() {      
            this.index = new Vector();
    //adds a key pair value to the HashTable and adds the key at the end of the index Vector
       public synchronized Object put(Object key,Object value){      
           index.addElement(key);
           Object obj = super.put(key,value);
           System.out.println("inside OrderedHashTable Put method index size = " + index.size());
           return obj;    
    public synchronized Object remove(Object key){
           int indx = index.indexOf(key);
           index.removeElementAt(indx);
           Object obj = super.remove(key);
           return obj;
    public synchronized Enumeration getOrderedEnumeration(){
           return index.elements();
    public synchronized Object getByIndex(int indexValue){
           Object obj1 = index.elementAt(indexValue);
           Object obj2 = super.get(obj1);      
           return obj2;
       public synchronized int indexOf(Object key){
        return index.indexOf(key);
        public synchronized int getIndexSize() {
            return index.size();
        }Everything seemed to work fine util I tried to add objects using a "for" loop such as this one :
    private synchronized void testOrderedHashTable(){
            OrderedHashTable test = new OrderedHashTable();
            for (int i = 1 ; i<15; i++){
                 System.out.println("adding Object No " + i);
                 String s = new String("string number = "+i);
                 test.put(new Integer(i),s);
                 System.out.println("-----------------------------------");
            //try to list the objects
            Enumeration e = test.getOrderedEnumeration();
            while (e.hasMoreElements()){
                Integer intObj = (Integer) e.nextElement();
                System.out.println("nextObject Number = "+ intObj);
        }Here is the console output :

    Generic/JSR179: nextObject Number = 13
    Generic/JSR179: nextObject Number = 14
    You can notice that the output seems correct until the insertion of object 9.
    At this point the vector size should be 9 and the output says it is 10 elements long ...
    In the final check you can notice the 9 was inserted twice ...
    I think the problem has something to do with the automatic resizing of the vector but I'm not really sure. Mybe the resizing is done in a separate thread and the new insertion occurs before the vector is resized ... this is my best guess ...
    I also tested this in a pure J2SE evironment and I don't have the same strange behavior
    Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong or how I could avoid this problem ?
    Thanks a lot !
    Cheers Alex

    Am i doing anything wrong?Uhm, yes. Read the API doc for addElement() and for addAll()

  • Strange problem with connection to Integrator Server

    Hi,
    I have a strange problem with making a connection to my Integrator Server.
    I have one workspace folder that I share between Integrator version 2.4 and 3.0 (I have several versions installed for testing purposes)
    When I try to create a new Integrator Server Project in Integrator Designer I get this nice 'Connect to CloverETL Server' panel.
    By default: the connection URL is http://localhost:8080/clover. So by default Integrator Designer wants to connect to my 2.4 Integrator Server.
    When I change this to http://localhost:8301/clover by using the drop-down box and fill in my credentials everything is looking fine. I click Next.
    The problem now is that every time I switch to the next or previous configuration windows the connection is reset to the default http://localhost:8080/clover.
    So it seems like Integrator Designer resets the CloverETL Server URL each time I switch to a different configuration window by using NEXT or BACK.
    The problem occurs in both versions of Integrator Designer.
    Does anybody know that the problem is? Can I change the default URL to my 3.0 Integrator Server?
    Greetings,
    Marcow

    I'm using iPlanet App server as well and experiencing similar problem. I load my SQL Server driver by Class.forName("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver"), then use DriverManager.getDriver() to obtain the Driver.
    However, the Driver returned is not the SQLServerDriver as expected. The Driver returned is com.netscape.server.jdbc.Driver! And then when I do Driver.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://MyServer"), it throws an SQLException saying that it doesn't accept a jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver subprotocol. Well, of course it doesn't, it's not a microsoft Driver at all.
    I suspect the problem is that the netscape Driver's acceptsURL() method ALWAYS returns true in iPlanet app server, thus when you getDriver(), the netscape Driver is always returned (and always returned as the first one since it's default?). Thus even though the same piece of code works fine as a standalone application, it just doesn't work on iPlanet app server.
    My work around is:
    Class.forName("my.Driver");
    Enumeration enu = DriverManager.getDrivers();
    Driver useThis = null;
    while (enu.hasMoreElements()) {
    Driver d = (Driver)enu.nextElement();
    if (d.getClass().toString().indexOf("my.Driver") > -1) {
    useThis = d;
    Mind that my above code does not have an performance issue. If you look into the source code of how DriverManager get a Driver for a particular URL, it also loads the whole set of available Drivers, then call acceptsURL() method on each of them to find the first "suitable" one. Thus time complexity is the same.
    I know this is not a very elegant solution and it defeats the purpose of having a DriverManager. Does any one else has a better way to solve this problem, like a way to specify the priority of each Driver so that SQLServerDriver is returned before the netscape Driver?
    Thanks a lot.

  • Strange problem with JComboBox

    I am having a strange problem with JComboBox, I created a method as a JComboBox factory which returns a JComboBox filled with items. the method works fine and I can see the items in the JComboBox. The problem is when I try using the method myCombo.SelectedItem(String item); the object myCombo does not set the selected item, it just leaves the item blank (or unselected).
    //This method build a JComboBox
    public javax.swing.JComboBox makeJComboBox(String[] items) {
    javax.swing.JComboBox myComboBox = new javax.swing.JComboBox();
    for (int index=0;index<items.length;index++){
    myComboBox.addItem(makeObj(items[index]));
    return myComboBox;
    public Object makeObj(final String item) {
    return new Object() {
    public String toString() {
    return item;
    }

    Couple of better ways to populate a combo with items-
    public javax.swing.JComboBox makeJComboBox(String[]items) {
    javax.swing.ComboBoxModel cbModel = new DefaultComboBoxModel(items);
    javax.swing.JComboBox myComboBox = new javax.swing.JComboBox(cbModel);
    return myComboBox;
    }OR
    public javax.swing.JComboBox makeJComboBox(String[]items) {
    return new javax.swing.JComboBox(items);

  • Strange Problem with Mail & Address Book

    Hi,
    I'm having a strange problem with Mail & Address Book.
    When I go to compose a new message from Mail and hit the Address button (to show my email addresses), it won't launch the contacts window!
    I get this log from console;

    I tried deleting the preferences, re-installing Address Book, also tried creating a new user, again no luck!
    Can somebody help!!!
    Please?!

    Hi dp13.
    Do you have any Address Book plug-ins or system utilities that could interfere with Address Book? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/
    ~/Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/
    To make accurately reporting this information easier, you may open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>. You can then copy the output of that command from Terminal and paste it in your reply to this post:
    ls -1 /Library/Address\ Book\ Plug-Ins ~/Library/Address\ Book\ Plug-Ins
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.
    <hr>
    Did you also reinstall the appropriate Combo Update after reinstalling Address Book?
    Quit all the applications and verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with the computer:
    About the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update
    Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update for PowerPC
    Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update for Intel
    After installing the Combo Update, the computer may restart twice and the first restart may take several minutes. This is normal.
    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 and back up before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

  • Strange problem with Inheritance

    Hi,
    I have a Strange problem with Inheritance which I think should work, but doesn't.
    I have 3 classes in 3 different packages.
    Class A in package 1 is abstract
    Class B extend class A is also Abstract and is in package 2
    Class C extend Class B and is in package 3
    When i do the following
    C c = new C();
    A a = (A)c;
    I get a class cast exception
    Any ideas?
    Jag

    That should work fine. Can you check the exact classes created (using: System.out.println(c.getClass().toString()). You may have accidentally created an instance of a class with the same name but from a different package.

  • Strange problem with DatagramSocket and DatagramPacket.

    Hi!
    I got a strange problem with UDP sockets:
    Client (hardware device) send binary data messages, consisting of bytes and shorts fields (8 and 16 bits). But when I tried to read byte array, received from socket, I got some type anomaly. For example:
    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
    DatagramPacket packet = new DatagramPacket(buffer, 1024);
    socket.receive(packet);
    byte[] data = packet.getData();
    System.out.println("Received data:");
    for (int i = 0; i < packet.getLength(); i++) {
      System.out.printf("%h:", data);
    I got such thing: 34:4:fffffff1:ffffffdb:ffffffdc:20:1:1:0:2:50
    If I try to parse it using ByteArrayInputStream and DataInputStream
    ByteArrayInputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(packet.getData());
    DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(is);
    int head = dis.readByte();
    int recvinfo = dis.readByte();
    short count = (short)dis.readShort();
    System.err.printf("Decoded:\n head: %h\n recvinfo: %h\n count: %h\n",
         head, recvinfo, count);i got following:
    Decoded:
    head: 34
    recvinfo: 4
    count: fffff1db
    So I get Integer entries in byte?! array. I also got Integer even I try to read and cast it as short in short!!! variable.
    Please help!
    P.S. Sorry for my bad English.

    Rather fortunate that it auto-casts(or rather, that 0xFF is int by default, rather than attempting any type-detection as most languages do), as otherwise the brackets would have been in the wrong place. If it was still a byte after the "& 0xFF", sign extension would still occur.
    For the sake of the less bit-literate reading this thread, it should be explained that the reason for this was large bytes being interpreted as negative numbers, which translate to negative int, which in hexa become very large ints. That's about as verbose as I can be about this without writing the equivalent of a wikipedia entry about 2s complement.

  • Strange problem with linking to external vob-file

    I have a strange problem with linking to external vob-file. I
    have created a link using BudApi:
    on mouseup
    set OK = baOpenFile ( the pathname &
    "Files\General\Video\VTS_01_1.VOB", "normal")
    end
    This code opens mpg-videos correctly, but nothing happens
    when I try to open vob-files with the same code. The strangest
    thing is that when I change the default program for vob-files to
    WinDVD this code works and the file opens, but when I change the
    default program to Nero Showtime this code doesn't do anything
    (when I open the file 'manually' from the folder, it opens
    correctly on Nero Showtime). My client uses Nero Showtime, so I
    really would appreciate any help on this one.

    If you open a command prompt, do you get an association
    listed like this
    example for .txt files:
    C:\>assoc .txt
    .txt=txtfile
    C:\>ftype txtfile
    txtfile="D:\Program Files\JGsoft\EditPadLite\EditPadLite.exe"
    "%1"

  • Strange problem with motherboard H67MA-E45(B3) =( please help

    Hi, I have a strange problem with my motherboard . I have a H67MA-E45 (B3) (MSI-7678) , when i try to update it ( http://www.pcbrain.it/images/stories/msi/H67MA-E45/bios/14.JPG ) , i choose the fourth option "Select one file to update bios" , but the bios did not recognize the update file (E7678IMS.1C0) into the Usb flash drive , but if i choose the second option (select one file to boot) the file is recognized. First I made a backup of the bios, and into the USB flash drive has been created a file called "E7678ICX.162" (my current update). Why the extension is IXC ?!? it should have been IMS ! . I tried changing the file extension "E7678IMS.1C0" (the new update) into "E7678ICX.1C0" and when i select the fourth option , the file is recognized! . Obviously I have not started the update , but if I proceed with the update, changed the name of the extension, is it safe? Or do damage?..please help me  :(
    P.S. Sorry for my bad bad and very poor english , i'm italian =)

    Still think there is a batch conflict or possibly a bad stick in the new sticks. Might test each new stick individually for a bad one. Again, the other solution for an 8BG kit may be the new Kingston HyperX PnP's. Could you post a screenshot of CPUID's CPU-Z Memory & SPD Tab for one of the new sticks?
    Added: Actually, screenshots of the old sticks Memory & SPD Tab may be of help too. It may be tRAS or tRFC differences between the two kits. Just speculation at this point though.
    All the batchs works perfectly...this is the screen http://imageshack.us/f/163/ramkk.jpg/ ...save and zoom
    EDIT: The old stick are SLOT #1 and SLOT #2 ...the new 3 and 4
