Ti4200-VTD8X(MS-8894) Startup Problem

I just recently installed a Ti4200-VTD8X (MS-8894) and am having problems with reliable startup of my system. If I startup the computer cold, the system does not post a video bios or system bios boot message and the monitor indicates there is no sync signal being applied. If I leave the system on for a bit and then cycle the AC power a bunch of times, the system will eventually boot and run perfectly normal. At that point if I shutdown, turn off the AC, wait a bit and turn the AC on again, the system works perfectly normal!
I suspect that it may be a power supply issue, although it is a 300W unit. Does anyone know of a diagnostic I could use to check the supply and confrim it is the problem? Anyone have any other ideas? The motherboard is an ECS K7VTA3.
Also, even when the system is running normally, the board dos not post a boot message during startup. Is this normal for this card, or do I have a corrupt Bios? The video board I replaced was a Geforce 3 Ti200 and it works fine in the system and does post a message during boot (It is not an MSI card).
The board works fine in an old Pentium 233 MMX system with a 200W supply! It is not as loaded with hadrware as the main system I use. Most peculiar!

But the card works fine in 2 other systems (one is a pentium4 1.4 ghz and 250 power). I haven't tried what fpawlowski did with rapid cycling the AC power....it probably would work. The card I'm replacing is a Gainward Geforce 3 Gold.
update: I just found out if I let my system stay on for 3-4 minutes the monitor will get a signal and the bios screen comes up in "change bios settings" menu but when I reboot the system takes another 3-4 minutes and does the same thing?....
Any ideas are appreciated....
Thanks,

Hey i had the same problem like you have .... I try my new MSI Ti4200 8x VTD 128 MB on my P4 1.6, Asus P4S333 and get a black screen. But when i try it on my old Celeron 533 mhz on a MSI mobo .... everything works fine .....

Ti4200-VTD8X (MS-8894) refresh rate problem

I upgrade my Geforce3 Ti200 VGA to Ti4200-VTD8X (MS-8894). My monitor is Samsung SyncMaster 955b (19").
My problem is: I can not get refresh rate 1280/1024 85 Hz (This is the recomended rate of this monitor). I have instaled the newest monitor driver.
Ah.. I have a 2nd problem. My OS is Win XP prof. In the "display properties" window there is a place called "MSI information". In that window nearly all my VGA properties are wrong. It saya my memory is 32MB and SDRAM. AND i can not change the check boxes there. Can you please help me to solve my problems.
Thank you,

Ti4200-VTD8X (MS-8894) video capture

Hi,
I've just bought this video card (in the subject), that is working well normally, but the video capture function is not working. When I try to launch the capture driver properties with Winproducer, my computer becomes very slow and instable, the screen is blocked during long seconds, or my computer is rebooting alone. It's unable to capture video.
I tried with 31.00 original MSI drivers, and with lastest nVidia drivers, the result is the same.
I have an Abit NF7-S motherboard (nVidia nForce2), is there any incompatibility between both ?
And as ever seen in a past message in this forum, the Live Update 2 software is not working with this video card when it try to connect the server "this video card is not MSI", something like that.
The patch for Winproducer that I have downloaded on the MSI website is not working too with the Winproducer version on the CDROM bundle.
Would anyone help me to find the lastest VGA BIOS for this card, because Live Update is not working. Does anyone has the same problem in capturing video with this card, or is it a bug of my card ?
Thanks
Jean - FRANCE

Symptoms:
1. Live Update 2 install results with VBIOS.DLL error.
2. Vid Capture locks up Winproducer.
I've tried:
1. Reinstalled various versions of WDM capture drivers (1.08, 1.11, 1.18, 1.22)
2. Reinstalled various versions of nVidia drivers. (MSI 3100, 41.09)
3. Swapped out power supply
4. Updated MB BIOS
5. Installed Bundled Winproducer software and applied MSI patch. (Patch fails to install)
6. Format HD - Reinstall Windows and repeated all steps.

Gf4 Ti4200-TD8X (MS-8894) Boot Problem

;( This is my 4th or 5th pc I have built and when I installed this VGA board on my SY-KT400 Dragon Ultra (Black Edition), the pc will bootup and beep once, and continue onto reading the O/S but the problem is that not once did the video appear on screen. It just displays no signal. I've cleared the cmos many times, and the video card seems to be running fine, its just I get no video period. If you could help I would really appreciate it. )

EagerDeadlock,
What are the specs on your power supply? You might not have enough juice to run a GeForce4 Ti Card.
Take Care,

Ti4200-VTD8X (MS-8894) reboot crash; poor benchmark

SB Audigy Sound Card
Direct X 9.0
Klipsch 2.1 sound system
IBM 60 Gig HDD

After 3 days of trying to get XP to see my new card I took it to the shop. They found the MoBo vga drivers had been dumped. They reinstalled the drivers. Got it home and it ran fine. Then the next morning on boot up, the Hitachi Monitor Power On screen comes on and then the screen goes black, with a tiny spray of brilliant colors, red, green and blue coalescing in the center of the screen. Then they fade and the screen stays black and the HDD red light stays solid on with no boot up. Ctrl Alt Del, or Reset do nothing. So I turned off the computer at the back. Turned it back on and hit the boot switch and it booted up fine. Everything is working fine. But, if I have to do a restart, I get the same black screen with the spray of colors and then have to turn off the computer, turn it back on and then boot it up. The drivers for the video card are listed as NV4_disp.dll Ver 6.13.0010.0134. Any ideas?
I ran 3DMark03 and got a score of 1335. Ran NV Refresh Tool, bumped up my refresh rate from 60 to 100, reran 3DMark and got a score of 1344. A comparison finds other systems of like ilk getting scores of over 1700. Does my 4X MoBo slow it down that much?
This card scored 9430 using 3DMark01 SE

GeForce4 Ti4200-VTD8X (MS-8894) - Jumper?

Hello!
Regarding this vga-card..
I just bought this card today and i'm really surprised on how silent it is.. very good! I have a question though, what does this undocumented jumper do exactly? it says "work" and "safe", is it anything i should move around or just have it there by default?
Here it is for a close-up (green jumper-pin)..
Hope you can help me.
Sincerly,
Tobias

Found the results on the forums! Dual bios!
Thanks anyway! :]

Share overclock #'s Ti4200-VTD8X (8894)

Would you please share with me your overclock numbers? I have the 128mb Ti4200-VTD8x video card. Motherboard is Shuttle KT266A with 1800+ AMD chip. I am running motherboard with BIOS driven optimized settings with no additional overclock in motherboard bios.

I recently built a system (specs below) and installed this card (MSI GF4 Ti4200 VTD8X MS8894, 128MB DDR), and when I try to use Live Update 2 (version 3.33.000, from the CD that came with the card), I get the same message:
"Warning!!! Your Display Card does not support MSI Live Update 2 function. Note: MSI Live Update 2 supports the Display Cards of MSI only."
I'm using the drivers/BIOS that came on the CD: Driver version 6.13.10.4107, BIOS version 4.28.20.05.11. I see on the nVidia site that they have the 4109 drivers out now, should I try those? ?(
I have also made sure to do the suggested modifications to IE (and I don't have PC-cillin installed):
"Note: In order to operate this application properly, please note the following suggests.
-Set the IE security setting 'Download signed ActiveX controls' to [Enable] or [Prompt]. (System default is [Prompt]).
-Disable 'WebTrap' of PC-cillin(R) or any web based anti-virus application when executing MSITM Live Update 2TM.

I downloaded a newer version of LIveUpdate (3.35.000), and installed it (after completely uninstalling the old version), and got the same results. Nothing on my system is currently overclocked.

I've been triing to fix the problems but no luck. Finally I decided to look here and what a supprise. It seems that this is a big problem for everyone. The card works great other than the software issues. I hope that MSI steps up to the plate and comes out with a fix.

GF4 Ti4200-VTD8X(8894) and Live update 2.0

Hello all
Recendly i bought this graphic card (i mention on the subject). It's much faster than the Asus GF2 Ti i had before and all are working properly except of the updating program called Live update 2.0. I installed it and when i got connected to the server it announced me that the version running on the server is newer than mine and it gave me the option to update it as i did. When i reconnected to the server and asked for updates about my card's bios or driver it gives me the message that my graphic card isn't from MSI. The utility option works fine but as you can understand isn't the important one. As i was ecpecting the same results i got from the live monitor too.
So i would like to ask the moderators of this forum or anyone who could know:
1) Is my graphic card [MSI GF4Ti 4200 VTD8X (8894) 128 MB] combatible with the Live update utility 2.0 or not? The 3D turbo experience utility works fine on my pc.
2)If i update the VGA bios and driver of my graphic card manualy (without the live update utility) from the MSI web site will i still have the tabs "MSI information" and "MSI clock" on my display properties?
Thanks in advance

Asus P4S8X MB vs. Ti4200-VTD8X issue

I have build a new system with ASUS P4S8X motherboard and MSI Ti4200-VTD8X(MS-8894) card, after several unsuccessful installations of my graphic driver: always got rundll32.exe error when I try to click on either "MSI Information" or "MSI Clock Tabs" button, I came to this forum and read most of the Ti4200-VTD8X related thread, especially the one "Asus MB vs. Ti4200" started by jcander. It helps, but I still can't fix my problem.
I uninstalled the original driver (41.07 I believe, came with MSI graph card), downloaded and installed nVIDIA's new driver 43.45, when I open "Display Properties", I see "MSI Information" and "MSI Clock Tabs" button are still there (Is this correct?), click either one results the same run error as before, the detailed error signature state "ModName: msicpl.dll", I checked my window directory, couldn't find msicpl.dll file, only a file called msicpl.ini is found there, which seems was created when I install the nVIDIA driver. I did not run a registry hack as suggested by Razvan (do I have to?), I am afraid of changing registry file. So I guess my questions are:
1. Is it correct that two MSI buttons still exist after install nVIDIA driver?
2. Do I have to run that registry file in order to get it work?
3. Is there any other step or procedure I missed during the work around?
Thanks in advance.

laoguan,
Since you originally installed the MSI drivers and then switched to the nVidia drivers, you need to go in your c:/windows Directory and delete the file msicpl.dll
That will solve the problem with the MSI Tabs.

Overclocking the MSI Ti4200-VTD8X ?

i just got my Ti4200-VTD8X MS-8894 (good card )and would like to see if it's safe to overclock it.
what would be a fairly safe speed to clock this card (msi Ti4200-VTD8X) to ? , as i would like to overclock it to get a little more speed out of it

Download and install Coolbits and install it to your registry by double clicking it...
Then reboot, open Display properties and you'll see a new entry in the settings menu for the card...enable it..
Then tweak away a little at a time until you start seeing artifacts on your screen, 3DMark2001SE is a good program to test it with...
When you start seeing artifacts then back it off to the last setting that was good and you'll be there!!
Cheers!! 8)

Slow turn-up of monitor on Ti4200 VTD8x

Does anyone think there is a bad card problem here? I've built my first pc and the MSI ti4200 VTD8x seems to be having very inconsistent but slow turn-up of the monitor's display. It's slowest after the pc has been off for a long time and is cold. Works quicker on restarts after it has been on awhile.
Sometimes it takes over a minute or two and the actual Windows XP login screen is the first appearance of anything on the monitor. The monitor has Energy Star and doesn't come out of ready mode and power on until most of the boot process is done. This turn-up seems to be getting slower each day (just built pc 20 days ago). The monitor is a Sony CPD 200es. The monitor had no problems like this on the Dell it was used on before.
I've installed the MSI drivers for XP and everything works great once the display is up. I have an Antec True Power 380W power supply and an Albatron PX845PEV Pro mobo (ti4200 set at AGP4X). According to the mobo bios, the AGP is getting 1.51 Volts.
Should I be sending the card back or what? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Guys,
Thanks for helping out those of us in need.
To NovJoe:
1) Try updating your GPU's driver.
I downloaded MSI's latest driver listed (Nvidia 4.1.0.7) and it shows working properly. I did not install the newest BIOS that was on MSI's web. I also loaded the video capture driver from MSI and the "Currently installed programs" list shows both Nvidia WDM Drivers and Nvidia Windows 2000/XP Drivers loaded.
2) Try throwing in Antec 430watts PSU.
I'd like to keep the new Antec case I just bought with 380W. I don't plan on adding any other HW but a DVD R/W drive next year.
3) Try updating your mobo's driver inclusive of AGP Gart driver.
I did download and install the newest XP drivers from Albatron and also a BIOS update that installed without any problems. But I don't know if there was any AGP Gart driver included. I'll contact Albatron to find out. What specifically can I ask them to tell me to determine if AGP Gart was included in the XP driver?
For Richard:
As mentioned above, I believe I loaded all the current drivers available. That also includes the Intel's latest IAA driver.
Here's the list of IRQs and the shared ones seem to point to the problem. The MSI card and a USB controller share an IRQ. I have some of the 6 USB port not responding to a MS Sidewinder joystick. Microsoft Catalog says the joystick and driver are XP compitable but, I had to try installing many times before it finally worked (listed as a Human Interface Device) and yet does not show attached to any of the USB ports in the Device Manager listing!?

Ti4800SE-VTD8X & WDM video capture problem...

sheeesh... I did everything I know to solve the problem... I read every thread on this help forum having the word "WDM" using the search engine and also on other webpages and forums. I can see that I am not the only one having problem with the WDM drivers
Can anyone help me with this ?( :
The WDM driver fails to load and make my system boot up time to around 45 seconds to 1 minute which is normally booting in less than 18 seconds without the WDM driver installed. In the "Device Manager", I see a nice lil " ! " on the "nVidia WDM Video Capture (Universal)" codec.
Here is what I did to date :
1) I had an MSI Ti4200-VTD8X on a different setup computer and had the same problem. I changed my 250 power supply to a 350 watts as I read it might solve some problem but it did not.
2) I exchanged the Ti4200 for a brand new MSI GeForce4 Ti4800SE-VTD8X (MS-8900) and STILL have the same problem
3) I completely change my "old" P4 1.8 to a brand new setup (see at bottom) AND STILL have the same problem.
4) Why did I buy an nVidia product instead of ATI ? dunno...
5) I have tried to uninstall, reinstall, uninstall, reinstall, uninstall, reinstall... huh ? ?( oh yeah, the nVidia WDM drivers 1.21 and 1.22 still doesn't work. I even tried old WDM drivers as some said solved their problem. Installed 1.04, still the same problem.
6) I have tried the WDM from MSI (was happy to see a newer version 1.27) and disaster 8o computer crash with a nice blue screen and reset itself as soon XP loads this famous WDM driver during boot sequence. Had to start in safe mode using the last known working version... At least, that worked...
7) The only way I can make this crappy driver to works (and that is at 50%) is this way
a) in the device manage, I right clic the faulty codec (that XP kindly took the time to open for me to show me that this is not working...) and go to "update the driver"
b) then I click "install from a specified location"
c) then I click "do not search, I will chose the driver to install"
d) then I can see "nVidia WDM Video Capture (Universal)" in the list so I click on it
e) click "next" button
f) XP reinstall the driver withtout the " ! " once I go back in the "Device Manager".
The only thing with that is that it is unstable. Sometimes it might work for 1 hour, sometimes 10 minutes. What it does is it completely crash the application which is using the WDM, for instance InterVideo WinProducer. And here is the kind and gentle warning message box from XP saying : "InterVideo WinProducer has to shut down. We are sorry blah blah blah blah..." and of course you lose any recordings you were capturing or working on...
If I reboot the system, the codec is once again not loaded properly.
So, can some one help me with this ???
Thank you ! :D

Try and download demo version, and see if you have use for it. I would like to use it, when I want, to watch DVD on my TV.
So now we need MSI or nVidia to make a WDM driver that works with nVidia VGA 44.03 driver.
Thanks man !
I have tried the TV Tool and quite frankly, I don't really like it... For the moment that is... It messed up a little the video settings like resolution and refresh rate. I have had numerous errors also saying to update to the latest version but you already told me about that.
I have noticed something with 41.07 driver that I lost a nice feature that might interest you ! In fact, with this feature, I think you would not need the TV Tool.
I had the option before to maxize the TV out to full screen when the DVD player started or when I watched any video format.
I can have the Windows Media Player (using nVidia nDVD for DVD) running minimized on my main VGA monitor and get the S-Video out run full screen which was really nice. Sadly, this option looks to be nowhere to find with the Detonator 41.07 version. :(
I don't know if there will be a serious revision about the newest Detonator drivers so it can support our card with full features like the full screen one...
When you fix a problem, there is a new one that come out :O
If you get any hint on how to complaint at MSI or nVidia, it would be great to let them know that something has changed since the v.41.07 that makes a lot of nVidia users having problems with the WDM issue.
Thanks again, at least, I can capture some video ! But not able to watch it full screen anymore on the TV out
Let's keep in touch !
See ya !

Green vertical lines in 3dmark03 and Temple of Elemental Evil with ti4200 VTD8x (ms-6712)

Hello,
I was wondering if someone has any idea why I have the following problem:
I purchased an MSI ti4200 VTD8x (MS-6712) video card a little while ago. I managed to install it with no problems and everything seems a-okay except for specific situations. I installed the game Temple of Elemental Evil and when I tried to play it, everything seems to work except I get green vertical lines over the entire screen while playing. Does anyone know what is causing this?
I tried 3dmark03 and I get the same thing on certain parts of the screen during the tests. E.g. during the first test (the WWII aircraft battle) I get vertical green lines just on the parts of the screen where the exhaust from the engines should be.
Any ideas?
Here are my specs:
Athlon XP 1800
MSI KT4V-L m/b
512 megs generic ddr333 ram
Winxp pro
DirectX 9
what else do you need to know?
Thanks in advance,
Gerby

What is the difference between DirectX apps and OpenGL/SDL apps? How can I tell the difference?
CPU and ram are not overclocked (again, I don't know how).
I just installed the latest drivers from Nvidia (v45.23) and still have the same problem in 3dmark03. I also used Driver Cleaner 2 to clean up the old driver files before installing the new driver.
3dmark03 and temple of elemental evil are so far the only apps where I have seen this.
Also, I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it but in 3dmark03 I get very low frame rates in the "Battle of Proxycon" and "Troll's lair" game tests as well (4-10 fps).
Have I not got my BIOS setting correctly configured, maybe?
Thanks again,
Gerby
