Tecra S2 - Other graphic card than Nvidia Go 6600 ?

Goode evening,
What else does fit into an Tecra S2, except the original Nvidia Tecra S2?
By the way, does anyone know the price for a new Go 6600? Is it still available? I can only find it on eBay.
Many thanks,
Ben

Hello both,
Many thanks for your help.
@Akuma,
I can do it myself, installing the new graphic card. But thanks for the tip with the ASP.
@Xardas,
I think the FAQ you posted is then not right. In the Tecra S2 you can disassemble the graphic card, here an example:

EDIT: I already did it myself, it's only 3 screws, the big connector to the mainboard and a smaller to the LCD. Well, before that you have to disassemble the whole laptop from the button and top, unscrew all F3..F14 screws and finally take off the upper part including the LCD. But it can be done, I also discovered it while doing it :)
Greetings,
Ben

Upgrade MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. to recommended system requirements for heli simulator: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB.

I want to install a helicopter simulator into my MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. Recommended system requirements for the heli simulator are: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB (at least as fast as NVIDIA 8600, 9400 or ATI Radeon HD 2400). Is there such a graphics card available that will work in my Mac Pro?

Are you really still running 10.6.3? you will need 10.6.5+ so do that and make a clone.
ATI 5770 from Apple Store - like 1000s of others have done and in the comments section on the store page.

Apple releases updates, and you have to wait because Apple creates the graphics drivers. You need to check updates to know that you have the most recent version

Reg: Upgrading my graphics card to NVIDIA geforce GTX 760/780

Hi,
I am working with a Dell Precision work station 690 which currently uses a NVIDIA QUADRO FX 3450.. I want to upgrade this to a high end graphics card mostly NVIDIA Geforce GTX 760/780.. However , when I read the Specs for Dell Precision work station 690, it is mentioned that is support memory only till 512.. Are high end graphics card compatible with my PC? Will there be any power issues? I have an extra 6 pin cord from PSU on my PC.
--Thanks ,
Rama

Check if your chosen video card requires UEFI.
The GeForce GTX 960 failed in my Precision 690.
Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit would not boot with this card.
I believe the issue is that this card requires a motherboard with UEFI which the 690 does not have.
Other posts report that the GeForce 750 Ti fails also because of lack of UEFI.
I found this site on Dell which says that the Radeon R9 280X will work in a 690:
http://accessories.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&sku=a7272920
Note in the above URL the requirement for a 1000W power supply. Some video cards require two (2) 6-pin or one (1) 6-pin and one (1) 8-pin connector from the power supply.
Hope this helps.

Does the standard Intel HD Graphics 4000 in the 13 inch Macbook pro stand up to other graphics cards with dedicated memory ( 1GB of memory for instance)?

Does the standard Intel HD Graphics 4000 in the 13 inch Macbook pro stand up to other graphics cards with dedicated memory ( 1GB of memory for instance)? I need a laptop for college and the Engineering program suggests a dedicated video card with minimum 1GB of video memory.

I have a Intel HD 4000 in my Mac Mini (late 2012), and it's okay for what I need it.
However:
- there were a few issues with flickering on the video output to external monitors. These were solved through a firmware update that came with OSX 10.8.3 - for the majority of the users. There is apparently still a small group of users that still has issues. You can read long threads about this here:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4472316?start=0&tstart=0
and here
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4490924?start=0&tstart=0
So for most of us (me included) this issue is solved, but it seems that certain displays / monitors don't work well with the intel HD4000, don't know if there is a pattern or a list of monitor models...
- there was an issue with the color calibration on the HDMI output. No matter how much you tried to calibrate, the results remained unsatisfying. All light colors were crushed to white, wrong contrast, ...
You can read about this here:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1482487
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4480354?start=0&tstart=0
The same firmware update improved this a little, good enough for me, but I can imagine it's not good enough if you do graphic work and need reliable colors from your monitor. On HDMI output, the thunderbolt/MDP output is fine. So it's mainly a dual monitor setup issue.
If it's for graphic work, I'd go for a Mac Book Pro with dedicated GPU !

GS70-2OD-001US Graphics card than Factory Reset Issue

After using heavy programs such as gaming and media design, everything on my laptop just shuts down. Out of nowhere it says that my video card's memory has ran out so I thought I was just overdoing it and so I restarted. I do this quite often so it came as a surprise to be that this happened for the first time. Once laptop was back up, the moment I tried to boot up anything that depended on the Nvidia GeForce GTX 765m, it would say that there was an issue with the nvidia kernel and it restarted successfully so I thought it was an issue with the graphics card. Uninstalling and Reinstalling did not work so I contacted NVidia customer support for help and they said to change power management to max, which didn't help either unfortunately.
Eventually, I just saved all my files onto my external hard drive and went for a factory reset hoping that may fix the problem, if not than sending the laptop back in to get it checked. After reset got to 100%, the computer shuts down without resetting so I waited 10 minutes and came back to start it up and it says "Windows was not successfully installed and windows need to be installed." I do not have a recovery disc or the windows 8 oem key to start my laptop back up again. Unfortunately it is a bit frustrating considering it is the only laptop that I have for assignments - typing this on a tablet - so hopefully there is a fix for it soon. Please help if you have any information. Thanks a lot.

Call MSI and do an RMA. Most likely there is an issue with the video card that needs to be fixed. Atleast, by the sound of what you're explaining that's what I would think.

Will I be able to upgrade my HP Pavillion m8530f 's graphics card to NVIDIA GTX 550 Ti

ive been looking all over the web to no avail on a variety of graphics cards that i can install on my desktop. Ive had my eye on NVIDIA GTX 550 Ti but i need to know if i can get some good graphics out of my machine

Hi,
The motherboard in your PC has a not so good history.
Open up you PC and do some measuring to make sure that the GTX 550 will fit. This EVGA is a good model but there aer other brands just as good. The card is 8.25" in length. The slot adjacent to the PCI-E x16 slot needs to be vacant.
You will need a bigger power supply. A 500 watt power supply should be sufficient for the GTX 550.
Look at this Corsair CX500. It's a good quality power supply.
You should open up your PC and measure the physical dimensions of your power supply. Here is a list of things to consider:
Specifications
Total wattage - important
12+ volt amperage rating - important
Modular - not mandatory but I like the flexibility
Warranty
i7 and SLI ready
Efficiency rating
Cost
Physical size -- standard ATX PSU is 5.5" by 5.9" by 3.4" give or take a few tenths
A single 12+ volt rail is a better choice.
www.newegg.com has lots of PSUs choices. Corsair, OCZ, Rosewill, Thermaltake.....

Lenovo z5070 graphics card issue 'nvidia'

i bought a new laptop .. i have windows 8.1 ... Z5070 - Graphics cards issue (Unable to play heavy graphic games. Nvidia Card) Z5070 with Nvidia Graphic card is having problem when playing high graphic games. The Nvidia graphic card is not detected and it is only using the Intel Graphic card.i install latest updates for everything.what is the problem pllz i want to play games

Hi abdallah650, By default the graphic cards used by computer are switched automatically, depend of application to run. You can check and change this for each application in NVidia Control Panel - 3D settings.
Also you can run each application with right click on it and choose the prefered graphic card. Read this article: switching between Intel and NVidia graphics and here. I hope that will help you.

Laptop with two graphics cards? [Nvidia Optimus - SOLVED]

Hi,
I just bought a laptop that includes two graphics cards: a low-power Intel one and a high-performance nVidia card. Right now I'm just using the Intel graphics card, and the system only detects it. When I install nVidia drivers I have to uninstall the intel drivers because of incompatibilities, and it doesn't even start the X server. I could attach a log if necessary, but I haven't found anything relevant, it just says that the nVidia driver is not valid for the detected graphics card. Is there a way to use both graphics cards transparently, like in other-operating-systems?
Some hints? Thank you!

It's called Optimus. Kinda surprised there's people who don't already know about it. Not supported fully in Linux, but there's a hack to get the nvidia card going: Bumblebee
Edit: Bah, too late!

Satellite P100 (PSPA6E) Graphic Card Trouble NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900

I have big trouble with my graphic card!
Sometimes the whole display is a kind of "broken"... everywhere are kinds of artefacts to see, yellow "blocks" which are everywhere on top of all
opened tasks / windows like a kind of semi-transparent "mask".
I already tried to reinstall driver without success. Even if I shutdown and reboot the system... no success.
The failure is remaining, maybe the 512MB memory of the geforce is broken? Sometimes it happens that the failure is disappearing from a moment to another
moment...
I really need some help... at the moment I´m writing my diploma and I really need my notebook for working.
regards
Christian

> The failure is remaining; maybe the 512MB memory of the Geforce is broken? Sometimes it happens that the failure is disappearing from a moment to another
According to your description it looks like a hardware issue but its not easy to say what could be wrong exactly.
You could try to connect the external monitor to the notebook and could check if the same would appear on the second monitor. If the same would appear on the connected monitor then a graphic card problem could be possible.
Did you use non-Toshiba graphic card driver? If yes, then this could be the reason why the graphic card malfunctions. Fact is that non-Toshiba graphic drivers dont support a GPU overheating protection and in such case the GPU could overheats.
Therefore a 3rd party graphic driver can be used ONLY at your own risk!
However, if there is a hardware problem an ASP must be contacted!!!
I really dont see another solution s to ask an authorized service provider for a check.
Best regards & Good luck

Tecra M5 - Need graphics card driver to run a widescreen resolution

I have a Tecra M5 with the Intel 945GM Express chipset. Is there a driver available that will allow me to run a widescreen monitor sucessfully?
At the moment the screen is stretched and I do not have the 1280x960 setting available to me as an option.
Help!!!!

Try to download the graphic driver from the Intel page. This is a original Intel GPU driver which could helps to use an widescreen resolution.
After choosing the appropriate driver for your operating system, download the driver file to a location on your harddisk.
The downloaded driver cannot be installed since the Toshiba driver is still present and needs to be removed.
To remove the driver perform the following steps:
1. Go to Control Panel by clicking on "Start" -> "Control Panel" -> "Add or Remove Programs" and choose the "Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator Driver"
2. Click on "Change/Remove" and remove the driver by following the uninstall wizard
3. Restart the machine and install the driver by opening the downloaded file
4. Restart your machine
5. After restart, connect your external screen to your machine
6. Right-click on the desktop and left-click on "Properties"
7. Go to "Settings" -> "Advanced" -> "Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for Mobile" -> "Graphics Properties"
8. To set the native resolution on the external screen, choose the mode in the Section "Display Devices" and the resolution in "Display Settings"
9. Make sure to disable the screen rotation, otherwise your screen will be rotated when choosing a wrong resolution.

Use of other graphics cards?

I tried a trial of PPro CS5.
I realize that only some cards will allow hardware acceleration. However, I was wondering if PPro CS5 will function with other cards but without hardware acceleration capabilities?
My new machine has an Nvidia GTX 260 card. When I brought in some AVI footage, it played, but there was kind of colored starburst effect that overlaid the video. It was kind of like those 1960's psychedelic posters where a rock star had sun rays emanating from behind the person in the poster ala Hendrix. Unfortunately my trial has expired so I cannot render out a sample and post on my web host for viewing.
Therefore my question is: do I need one of the approved cards in order to use PPro CS5 at all? My power supply can provide 480 watts which appears to be marginal for some of the cards specified by Adobe for use with PPro CS5.
Many thanks.
Jeff in Palmetto, FL

The exact version of nVidia driver can, indeed, cause problems with PPro CS5
And, your power supply is not large enough for the higher powered nVidia cards... which have 2 power connectors on the card and require a LOT of power to run
But, if you don't want to get into major rebuilding, many ATI cards work just fine for CS5, albeit without hardware MPE
