Ti4200 128mb boot problems on98se

HELP!!!!
I am running windows 98se 1000mhz processor 256mb ram (only 128 being used as win 98). I have installed my new graphics card as recommended in the handbook.
When I first installed the card and booted up my computer I ran the CD with the drivers on and could not install the drivers for the card as it said that it couldn't find the hard ware.
I re-booted the machine and windows found new software (graphics card) I installed the windows drivers then re-booted my machine. I then ran the cd with the real drivers on it and they installed. The machine then re-started. when it re-booted it asked if I wanted to install nVIDIA nview, I installed that. When that had finished installing the system re-booted. When it re-booted it shut down and then hung, the monitor was not switched on by the computer at this point.
After re-booting again I used the DVI to VGA connector to connect up to my standard CRT monitor. This booted up fine. I then installed the video capture software. The system re-booted.
It hung again on start up displaying nothing on the monitor. I switch the monitor over to the standard 15pin D plug, restarted and the machine booted up, displayed the windows 98 loading screen then the monitor switched off. I then put the monitor cable back into the graphics card via the DVI adapter and the display worked correctly.
If I try to re-boot the system with the monitor in the adapter then it hangs on start up. If I use the D plug then it doesn't display a picture after the windows 98 screen. If I disconnect all the cable the system boots fine with and without the adapter being in place.
I have replaced the graphics card with my old one and that works fine still.
HELP!!!!!!!! I really dont understand what is going on... how can having a monitor plugged into the machine make it hang on start-up??? and how can I fix this problem........?
thanks for you time and effort in advance

Your a great moderator! Fortunately, I dont see, nor have I seen any program attached to the virus, so I dont think its ever been used (i could be wrong). I check my processes frequently for suspicious programs, and after installing new things. I also check all the start up items in msconfig.
The only thing im not sure of is how to change the IRQ. Do i need to switch from ACPI to APM (or whatever the other mode is) to do it, or should I just try moving PCI cards around?
Thanks

MSI GeForce4 Ti4200 128MB refresh problem

Hi all!
I have following WinXP refresh problem:
When I set refresh rate to value bigger than 75Hz, system tells me that refresh rate was changed, but my monitor still shows me 75 Hz.
My HW configuration:
Athlon XP 2000+
ABIT KD7 (VIA KT400 chipset)
MSI GeForce4 Ti4200 128MB
IBM DeskStar 45GB 7200 rpm
17" AOC 7GLr
I have tried various graphic card drivers (both drivers that were on CD supported by MSI and downloaded detonators from nVidia), for my monitor i have correct drivers from AOC. I was able to set refresh rate to 100Hz using PowerStrip 3.3. In SiSoft Sandra Professional i found warning, that i should use PnP/DDC compatible monitor or video adapter.
Guys from AOC support told me, that problem is probably in my graphic card.
Can you help me?
Thanks in advance. :(

I experienced the same problem with a new msi 440mx VTD (8x). I tried the latest detonator drivers (41.07 and 41.09) and could not get more than 75Hz refresh in any resolution, though the configuration told me it was 85Hz. In Monitor Inf my Iiyama MT-9017T has the specs 96kHz and 55-160Hz, that used to give me 1024x768@100Hz with my old graphics adapter.
my configuration:
Athlon XP 1600+

Ti4200 128MB problem

I am having a problem, all of the sudden.
I have been using my Ti4200 128MB 8X card for a few months now, but all of the sudden video performance has suddenely decreased, and it getting worse by the minute. At first, games were getting choppy, but its to the point now where any 3D rendering slows the computer to a less the 1 FPM crawl. I have tried new drivers...I am now using the latest detonator drivers, but I have tried different versions. I am running my system cool with plenty of fans.
I am running the card on a 4X agp Intel board, with a P4 1.7 and 512MB rambus with ECC. Windows XP. I have an Antec power supply. My hardware configurations have not changed in anyway.
I also have been having a problem on a cold boot. The computer will lock up and restart before completly booting...but after the first time, it is never an issue until the next cold boot, and I know it is related to the video card as well. Perhaps this is a sign that it I am going to completely lose the card? Running the desktop and any other applciations (explorer, outlook, photshop, dreamweaver) are not problems.
Any advice?
Thanks!

875P Neo-FIS2R boot problem

Hello,
Just built a new machine with the following parts. Sometimes it boots fine, but mostly when you turn it on nothing happens, no beeps, no visual, no nothing. Also, once in awhile it takes 15 - 20 seconds before it beeps and visuals come on screen. It's using bios version 1.2 with all default settings by shorting out jumpers. (It gives different voltage settings when reset by jumpers vrs utility.) Once it boots it runs fine, even though memory timings are 2-4-4-6 SPD instead of 2-2-2-6 SPD that my memory modules are suppose to be. However when I manually change to 2-2-2-6 the bios shows that but CPU-Z still shows 2-4-4-6, thats a different story though which a bios update would probally fix. Right now all I want is for it to boot consistently, every time. Ive tried a different power switch and a different power supply. Neither helped and this is driving me crazy, somebody please assist or post any information you might feel would help.

Hey,
I have /had same problem with Neo 875 and corsair TWINX512-3200LL and bios V1.2 It has something to do with mem settings and/or Vdimm voltage. At this moment it boots fine but I can't explain way. It seems that this kind of memory is very sensitive for the Vdimm voltage. 2.5V is to low and some systems refuse to post. (see the bios 1.4 flash problems) Must user use 2.6v; 2.65v or 2.7v. Check out if you can find a stable setting. Bios v1.2 uses default SPD settings. you can't change them. Although after bios reset (removed battery) I get some different values with cpu-z. 2-2-2-6 I don't understand why I get those values in CPU-Z. I don't believe that my system is running with those settings. I think it's running with default bios 1.2 settings 2,5-4-4-6 but who knows?
A lot of users had dead MOBO's when they flashed to v1.4. The reason isn't found. Some moderators say the didn't wait for the DOS prompt after flashing (Could be) Some users can confirm they did. Maybe it has to do with the corsair memory. If you do a search you will find a lot of usefull information (bios v1.4 and/or MOBO hangs on keyboard initialisation)

Sorry, but another boot problem

I am sorry to ask this question but I have read all of the recent posts on boot problems and followed all instructions but I am still having a problem. It passes the POST then gives the Boot Failure, insert boot disk into drive A message. The only thing I have not done is install a new bios. I have only got one SATA HDD, one CD Writer and floppy.
I have plugged the HD into SATA1 and the CD into IDE1, during the boot sequence it see the CD as Primary Master1 and the HDD as Third IDE Master.
During the POST it passes memory test and can detect both the HDD and CD and floppy.
I have set the HDD settings as follows:
Native Mode
ATA Config= S-ATA only
S-ATA keep enabled = Yes
P-ATA keep enabled = Yes
P-ATA Channel Selection = Both
Combined Mode = S-ATA 1st channel
S-ATA ports definition = P0-1st/P1-2nd
Also I have set the Boot sequence as follows:
1st boot = CD
2nd boot = HDD
3rd boot = floppy
I have built this PC only in the last few days and there is no operating system yet, it has the following specs:
BIOS A6728IMS 3.5 020504
865PE Neo2
Pentium 4 2.40aGhz
2 x 256 Kingston 400Mhz PC3200

Seagate 80Gb S-ATA HDD
LiteOn 52x CD Writer
PSU: 3.3v 28A, 5v 32A, 12v 16A (350W)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks, its good to know that I seem to have set it up ok but when I try to boot from the cd (Windows Server 2003) it still says there is a boot failure please insert disk into drive A???

Ti4200 128mb instability... ???

i've read in one of the reviews of ti4200 128mb that ti4200 series cards are unstable... is this true based on the experience of those users who use the card???
** i've been using the card for less than a month but i don't see any sign of instability still... how bout other users???

What review?
I never had any unstability with any GF4 on my system.
I have seen it quite often on others and systems I had to bang my head and spent countless hours trying to get things working properly. And it's all GF4 cards by several maunufacturers, I could even say it goes back farther than GF2's...what about ATI?
I have a workstation that had NT4 and an Nvidia Riva TNT 2, it had more problems than anything I have ever used, it was simply a defective card as I noticed my other workstation identical in every aspect, never had a problem.
Usually it's on a system that someone upgraded from an earlier version of MS/OS and didn't do a clean install or just simply don't have any experience with computers. A system that was just built and thrown together without any consideration as to how to populate PCI slots, perform due diligence on hardware compatability.
Of course there is the VIA issue, and the Powersupply issue, and the many correct and incorrect ways to load OS and system drivers. What about the n00b? ...ohh I kinda said that didn't I... 8o
I am in no way trying to say it's all from inexperienced users as it happens to everyone at some point and if it hasn't yet, you'd better pack a lunch just in case! Make sure it's non perishables
Thank the stars we have forums and news sites!
"NeverEndingStory"
So that's my take, I don't think it's just the 4200 series.
It is one of the better overclockers and a decent bang for the buck in my opinion.
Sorry, I was bored

K7N2 Delta-L: Strange cold boot problem & solution

My K7N2 Delta-L has a problem cold booting when the vcore is set in the bios at 1.65v of higher. After a cold boot, you get a blank black screen. I noticed that even if you run at default speeds but set the vcore to 1.65v of higher the problem still occurs. There is no problem rebooting however.
I found the following solutions:
1. After you power up and get a blank, hit the reset button.
2. Don't unplug your PC. My PC is connected to a AVR and after I power down the PC I usually turn the AVR off. If i do this, than the computer will have a booting problem if I try to boot it up 30 minutes later or so. Now if I don't unplug it/power off the AVR than everything is fine.
I don't understand why it acts the way it does though.
Does anyone know of any other solutions?

Have you cleared the cmos. If you do be sure you have the power turned off don't move the cmos jumper with the power on.
I found that turning off power at power supply and unpluging, than turning on the computer the fans will spin just a little this drains all the power. Clear cmos 2-3 than return to
1-2 position.
Than plug the power back in and turn it back on, than try the computer again.

Mid 2006 iMac Boot Problem (Since latest firmware update)

I have a Mid 2006 17" iMac. Ever since the latest firmware update in early December, about every other startup I've been having boot problems. After the white screen with the Apple Logo and the spinning wheel it goes to a blue screen like normal, but instead of the 'Loading Mac OS X' white window popping up it stays blue and the spinning loading wheel starts. I've left it loading for quite a while before and nothing changes. I have to do a force shut off by holding the power button. and then I start it up and it will boot normally.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Actually, I think it'san early 2006.

1st series iMac G5: Booting problems, kernel panics, waking from sleep...

Specifications of the iMac described: 1.8 Ghz, 1GB, 80GB, 64 Mb Nvidia VRAM, Airport, 10.5.5
Back in August 2004 my dad bought us kids an iMac G5 for ‘family use’. It had a fresh install of 10.3.5 on it and compared to the (1999) iMac G3 it replaced it was amazingly fast.
The iMac never showed any signs of probable issues, until we decided to upgrade to Leopard in January 2008. Initially, this upgrade was only meant to be able to sync with the latest iPod nano (who demanded a newer version of iTunes).
After the installation the first thing I noticed was a high CPU usage, the machine seemed slower than ever and that with 1 Gb of RAM (the minimum sys. req. for Leopard are 512 Mb of RAM). Anyway, then the real thing started, it wouldn’t turn on anymore. We brought it to an Authorized Apple Reseller, the Tech department said the Logic board had failed. The costs of the fix weren’t the worth the computer anymore, so...end of story. The iMac was indeed one of the bad series, although it hadn’t any swollen capacitors.
My dad already made up his mind and bought himself a Macbook. He then told me that if I was able to get the broken iMac fixed, I could keep it. And so, I bought an ‘as-is’ logic board on Ebay. Last weekend I installed it, and it actually seemed to work! Yet, the problems are during the startup: the first thing I see is a screen full with horizontal lines flickering all the time, like an old TV with bad signal. Mostly it won’t boot and I get the message to restart the computer (kernel panic, I got dozens of logs already!). Sometimes it got stuck during booting (grey apple screen with gear in the middle) making the fans go crazy (after a while) and sounding what others describe as a ‘jetliner taking off’ sound. Sometimes the screen remains black. Generally it takes me 5 to 10 minutes to start up properly. Maybe it’s just me but it seems like when the computer has warmed up a little (by turning on and off on and on) starting up gets smoother. I mean the startup screen suffers from less horizontal flickering lines.
During the use of Leopard, I again get high CPU usage, especially when I use multiple programs at the same time, or when starting multiple programs. My iStat Pro said once that the fans were running at 4700 rpm and the heat of the CPU was about 70 Celsius. If I really want to **** my iMac off I should play a racing game. That just totally freaks him out! These problems could probably be solved by adding more RAM. Right?
The iMac also has a sleep problem. Sometimes after lets say an hour or so, you can’t get it out of sleep mode (by manipulating keyboard and/or mouse, the sleep light stops, but the screen stays off --> only solution is to restart). What happened to me once was that it slept so long that it just got into a deep sleep by turning itself off completely!
Here’s a list of what I tried so far:
- Disk Utility: Resetting the permissions, no problems were found.
- Resetting the SMU, both on the logic board itself as by pressing the power button 5 - 8 seconds, no improvements.
- Resetting the PRAM, no improvements.
- Did the Hardware test of the original install CD, nothing was found, all good.
- Did Archive and Instal, this actually messed my system entirely, cause it wouldn't boot at all and when starting up from the Leopard installation DVD it wouldn't recognize the Macintosh HD.
- Did Archive and Instal with the original disks, this disk did recognize Macintosh HD and so I installed the original system, 10.3. Booting problems and those flickering lines are still there though.
Next phase will be erase and install, but first I want to know what you guys think about all this.
Oh eh, One more thing; The guys at Applecare (phone support) told me that the replaced logic board was also out of warranty and so they couldn’t help me. But as the man on the phone was kind, he told me to go look for a special ‘driver’ on the net. He said that the driver should be able to resolve some of the issues described. He said that I had to give in the name of the LB on google and look for results. Is this bogus? Because I haven’t found anything useful on google so far. What’s the name (rather than a number) of the LB in the first place?
I hope you guys can give me some answers. I'm kinda desperate. But I still feel there's hope...

The symptoms of a flakey power supply are sleep problems and you have done all the right things as far as resetting the SMU and PRAM. Your CPU usage can be tracked by going to Utilities>Activity Monitor - look and see what is hogging the memory. The flickering lines could also be an optical system going south.
The other thing you can do is run DiskWarrior or TechToolPro to see if you have corrupted directories. Preferential Treatment will let you check for corrupted preferences.

MSI P45 Neo-f with intermittent boot problems

Current system:
*CPU: Intel core2duo 4300 1,80GHz
Mobo: MSI P45 Neo-F LGA775
*Memory: 1 Kingston 1GB PC2-5300 667MHz DDR2 and 1 Dane-Elec 1GB PC2-5300 667MHz DDR2
Videocard: Club3D Nvidia 8800GT 512MB GDDR3
*Hard drive: 120GB IBM deskstar 7200rpm Ultra-ATA/100 (yes I realize it is known as the deathstar, but it hasn't failed so far, I do back-up because I'm paranoid
PSU: Real Silent Nexus NX-5000 500 watt
*Soundcard: Soundblaster Audigy
OS: Windows XP home, service pack 2
*Lite-on IT dvd-rom drive
*floppy disk drive
I also have 3 case fans spinning away in a marginally large Chieftec Dragon tower.
The parts I marked with an asterisk (*) are parts that I removed from my old rig and re-used.
I'll try to give a clear rundown of my problem and the steps I've taken so far.
3 days ago I acquired the P45 Neo and installed it into my system, together with the 8800GT videocard. I was still using my old PSU, a Chieftec 360watt. This PSU served me well for 7 years, but it was starting to build up noise while trying to keep up games on my old rig.
I had some trouble getting the system to boot, I tried changing some of the 4 pins wires going to the hard drive and the dvd drive. I don't know if it was luck or if I managed to divide the load properly for the system to boot. But I succeeded into booting up, got into the bios and eventually installed WinXP.
As soon as it was time to install the videocard drivers, it stopped responding. I assumed it was a power issue, since I could only install the 20pin and 4pin cpu, but my Chieftec PSU didn't have a 24pin plug to the mobo - and it needed replacing anyway! So I bought a new 500watt PSU that had all the required plugs and more wattage.
I installed the new PSU, checked every connection and pressed the power button. 'Lo and behold, the computer starts up. I install the videocard drivers and it proceeds with no problems. I try to install the soundcard, but the cd says I don't have one installed. I fix that by going to the System list and install the drivers from there. I install a firewall. By then I have successfully rebooted the computer 3 or 4 times. I decide all is well and turn off the computer. But I realize I wanted to check up something on the internet.
I press the powerbutton. The PC power light go up for just a fraction of a second. I can see the blue LED of one of the case fans switching on just as briefly - then it goes out. The computer keeps trying to turn itself on. It looks like it's hickupping to try and boot!
I turn off the PSU power on the back-side because the computer keeps trying and wait for a bit. After 10 minutes, it still doesn't work. I leave the computer for a bit and return an hour later. The computer then starts up with no problems. I turn it off after a few hours, do a reset, start it up, no problems. But then the next day it happens again.
It's pretty tough figuring out what the problem is because it looks..almost random. I considered it could be a heat issue, but sometimes it *does* start up just after it's been turned down. Checking the bios shows no strange temperature shifts.
Hope anyone can help me, because I do not want to go back to my old Asrock mobo

While powered down I cleared the cmos data, removed the Dane Elec DDR2 module and set the bios to optimized defaults. Computer restarted to WinXP with no problems (it has been off the whole night). I shut down WinXP, wait a few moments and then turn the computer back on. Alas, it won't start and starts hick-upping. I turn power off at the PSU again, so it stops.
Now I try switching out the Kingston module instead. By now the computer has been off for 10 min (while I write this entry on laptop). I press the power button on the PSU and then the power button on the front. There is a short pause, lasting a second. The computer turns on, longer now, but it only lasts 2 whole seconds before it turns off again and goes on again (I believe now you can call it powercycling). It repeats this process until I shut off the PSU.
I check to see if I have installed it properly and try again but it starts powercycling again.
15 min pass, I put the Kingston module back in, press the power button and voila, this time it does start. WinXP shows up, no problems. I leave it on for a bit and then shut down. And when I press the power button again - the feeling of dread returns, when it starts hickupping again.
I'm going to see if I can install one of the memory modules from my housemate. Then hopefully tommorrow, I'm going to try if I can test a different PSU, since I see someone else on the forum - who recently posted, has the exact same power supply and also has boot problems, coincidence... or not ^^;.

I have an early 2008 Mac Pro, which has re-booting problems. Also what does the spinning beach-ball indicate?

Hi, I have an early 2008 Mac Pro which has re-booting problems.
Processor speed is: 2.8
Memory: 2GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
2 x 28GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon
I am running OSX Yosemite Version 10.10
My Mac Pro keeps re-booting. Last year I had to replace my graphics card. My original card was the ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 255MB, and that is what I have now. At this precise moment my Mac Pro is running perfectly, except that it is slow and the spinning beach-ball keeps appearing. I have managed to do some work with the disk utilities, verifying, cleaning and partitioning. Some errors were found and when it was cleaned this seemed to help my Mac Pro to function properly. Although I am able to use my Mac Pro now, from day to day I still experience re-boot problems. Also quite unexpectedly my mac dictionary has an error, it closed itself down and will not open at all, I had the message to say that a report will be sent to Apple.
I have tried starting my computer with an external hard drive fitted via a USB cable, I use for back-ups. This worked and I was able to wipe my hard drive clear and replace all info from the back up I had done only a few days ago.
This worked for a few days and then the same problem started again.
I am beginning to wonder if I need to buy a new hard drive.
If there is anyone who has some answers to help me solve my problem, I would be most grateful.
Robert

Windows 8.1 pro boot problems

I upgraded my OS on a hp pavilion g6-1d73us from windows 7 home premium to windows 8.1 pro and ever since I have had boot problems. I took all the software off since I thought that might be the problem but the boot problems persist. The computer's self diagnosis helps but I still have problems. Is my laptop incompatible with windows 8.1? Windows 8.1 was a download and I still have recovery disks for windows 7. I originally thought the problem was incompatible software but now I am not sure.

Hi @hifive11 ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I am glad you have recovery disks for windows 7, smart thinking. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion g6-1d73us Notebook and having issues with the Windows upgrade to 8.1. Here is a link to the drivers page for your product. I do notice there are drivers for Windows 8.The Updates you need for the system are the Chipset. These are located on the driver page link above.
One of the things that can cause an issue is things connected USB. The computer can not load the drivers so it causes an issue. Once the machine is up to date then return the USB devices.
Then I recommended to restore the BIOS to factory defaults.Here is a link to restore the BIOS.
You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook.
Please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
