VGA Problems with thunderbold

vga Adapter will not work with Beamer if VGA Cable is longer than 30 Feet.
Is there any amplfier or remedy that I can use?
Is thunderbold mini Display Port electrically different? My 17" MacBook Pro works great. All PC also.
It was pretty embarrasing that The newest MacBook did Not work.

If you followed the instructions in the support article, try this:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
If that doesn't work, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

To map the drive on your computer click on Start - RUN - type "\\192.168.1.1" and click ok... When prompted for Username and Password type "admin" and click ok... Now you will be able to see the folder which you have shared on your router, right click on it and select "Map network drive" and click on finish.
Now it will map the drive on your computer and you should be able to transfer the file from your computer to the USB drive.

Problems with my VGA

I have taken the MX440 AGP out and replaced it with an ATI radeon7000 PCI.I have enabled the VGA adapter in the start up menu and installed it with little difficulty. however, when I go to use the television feature the monitor goes blank and the computer restarts. Sometimes it does this without trying to use any of the features. I have downloaded so many drivers that my head is spinning and none of the new drivers do anything to help the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Update to a newer BIOS I think it was BIOS 1.2 that said something about VGA changes. Well I haven't tried a PCI card on my system, but try setting the Priority Option that is that BIOS. Default is set to AGP/PCI. Set it to PCI/AGP and also check if there is enough air flow. What you say sounds like an overheating problem. Oh I did have a similar problem with my Radeon 9800 Pro when I put alot of stress (playing games and stuff) it wuold crash. Check your RAM, make sure if it has to be in Dual Mode that it is set in dual mode. That fixed 80% of my instability errors. Dual Mode is DIMM 1&3, DIMM 2&4, or DIMM 1,2,3,& 4.

VGA beamer problems with Windows 7 64-bit enterprise on MacBook Air 2012

For us the following problem is solved now! It might help other people with the same problems.
At our institute we have two new MacBook Airs 5.2 (2012) running Windows 7 64-bit Enterprise under Boot Camp.
They both cannot used for Windows-presentations with VGA beamers by using the mini-DP-to-VGA adapter (with Mac OS X 10.7 it just works fine). First of all, the suggestions from Apple phone support were not of any help at all (try PRAM reset, try SMC reset, ...). We tried an external USB-3.0-graphics adapter made by SUNIX (it failed, probably since Apple blocks other graphic cards in the EFI).
Then we saw the following article, which describes the same problems with a Dell XPS, but also using the Apple mini-DP-to-VGA adapter:
http://www.irongeek.com/i.php?page=reviews/dell-xp-mini-displayport-projector-fi x
We finally bought a "Mini-DisplayPort to VGA Active Video Adapter" from StarTech.com (product ID: MDP2VGAW) ...
AND IT WORKS!
Quintessence: Apple mini-DP-to-VGA adapter is too crappy for the (probably always behind) Windows.

Hello again,
After speaking to an Apple Genius, it seems the solution was to update the firmware for the Cinema Display. Since I have done this, the monitor appears to behave better.

Problem with lenovo t60 and the vga output

I have a problem with the vga output and the lenovo t60
When i put the videoprojector connector in to the lenovo t 60, the projector reponde is:
Not supported
H: 48.20khz v: 143,10 hz
On my desktop pc the projector function on 1024x768 resolution and the 60 hz to refresh.
The same configurations are on my laptop and the projector doesn't function
Please help me.

I too have this problem. My T61 worked fine for about a year, and then suddenly would no longer project. I had made no changes to the settings for the external display, though since the problem started I've tried many combinations without success. Typically the projector reports that the frequency settings the laptop is sending are unsupported. In my case the vertical rate is usually correct (60 Hz) but the horizontal rate varies wildly.
I suspect a hardware problem, as this post suggests: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/av-multimedia-related/32128-laptop-wont-display-projector.html. (Note the message claiming that 6 out of 40 Lenovo laptops exhibited this problem.)
Since my system is still under warranty I guess I'll have to get it repaired, but I'd rather hear of a software fix...

Problem with PT8 NEO Y VGA ATI SAPHIRE 9250SE

problem with PT8 NEO Y VGA ATI SAPHIRE 9250SE

From the VGA test report: http://www.msi.com.tw/html/products/mainboard/testreport_pdf/6799/vga.pdf for the board , i can't find ATI Radeon 9250SE , but it is obvious that MSI only tested their Nvidia cards and no ATI cards. So, you'd better to try Nvidia cards or contact your VGA vendor to ask if there is the latest VGA BIOS to solve your issue.
Anyway, remember to tell us the results .

I bought a new MBA and are having problems with HDMI and VGA port

Hi,
I just bought a new mac book air, and at the apple stre they recommended me a mosh mini to vga cabel. I need to use my computer for projector either hdmi or regular vga adapte. The new mba only has thunderbolt, usb, memory/card slot, microphone and headphone ports.
Does anyboody has and idea how i will or how do i connect the hdmi or vga adapaters to the computer. I have been searching on the cables the apple store has available but the end that goes into the computer is not compatible with the ones I mentioned above.
Please any help would be of great help, because I dont know what to do. I think this is a problem with the new MBA.
thank you,

Thank you doubr. So what I need is to buy the thunderbolt cable and the minidisplayport to vga adapter or the griifin mini display port to hdmi tht toothpickproductions recommends, is that correct?
The one I have is a mini dvi to vga adapter and the end that goes into the computer is the same one that the minisdisplayport to vga adapter or the griffin one have, and is too big to go into the new mba. I dont know if I am confusing you more with what I am saying.
check the link below and you will see the ports the mba has
http://www.apple.com/macbookair/specs.html
if you see the ports that mba has, the two minidosplayport that are recommending do not fit..
So, do you know that if I buy the thunderboldt cable will either of the two minidisplay ports fit or I need to buy another adapter for the minidisplay ports??
thank you because I am kind of confused, I did not have this problem with the macbookpro I had before...

Equium P200-1ED - have problem with installing VGA driver

Hello
I have problem with installing vga video driver, each time in installion it stops on
Version: 6,14.10,4833 and there is error poping up.........
Please help!

Hello
What error message is it exactly?
Make sure that the chipset driver and SP2 is installed at least.
I had a similar issue that I cant install the display driver. The error message was something like the hardware is not supported
But it was very easy to solve this problem. I installed the driver via device manager. I have selected the graphic card and choose update driver. Then I did choose the advanced installation to choose the directory by myself.
Anyway, after restart the driver was installed and it worked. :)

Problem with VGA Offboard G31M3L

Hi all,
I have a problem with my computer.
I installed a offboard VGA, and sometimes says no signal. i rly tired to turn off and turn on until the video works..
I alrdy, put primary vga on bios PCI-E 2.0, sometimes need reset many times until displays.
The onboard vga works normaly without offboard video card.
Anyone know why? tried to put memory stick in second to see if works and the problem still persists..
I rly suspect my power supply, becuz it have a 20pin.. not 24.. its the problem???
My config:
Pentium Dual Core E5200
MSI G31M3-L V2
2Gb Kingston memory
Nvidia Geforce 9400GT XFX 1gb
Zalman 400B-APF (20 pin) <-- mby the problem?? its not a bad supply.. yeah older but war veteran.

18A @12V should be okay for your system configuration (as long as you are not using an excessive amount of hard drives, optical drives, system fans, LEDs and the like).
Clear CMOS with main A/C power cable removed from PSU, load "Optimized Defaults" in BIOS after that, set the PCI-E Card to Primary VGA Adapter and see if that changes anything. If it doesn't, please test a different PSU and a different video card (preferably PCIe v1.0a). I am not convinced this is a mainboard problem.

Problems with Vga,Ati...

Hello,
Last day,i downloaded and burned ArchLinux with kernel 2.6.34...(2010) and when i want to install it from CD (Core offline install) it do this...
<moderator edit>Large image removed. Please feel free to repost it in accordance with our image posting guidelines. tomk</edit>
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
...and i tried another linux distro with kernel 2.6.3x and it do the same thing...but with kernel 2.6.2x it not does this....maybe its problem with Ati drivers...so is there any solution to change ati drivers at boot form CD (trough the TAB key)
I have Asus L84F With 128MB Ram,20GB HDD,ATi Mobility Radeon M6 (ID 4c59,8MB)
Why it do this??...please help me i love ArchLinux...and sorry for my bad english :-)

I think 128MB was the bare mimimum when I did my laptop install but if your graphics card reserves any memory it may go below what it can work with in your case(I only have 192MB in my ancient toshiba laptop, I think I installed when I only had 128MB in it but I used an older Arch boot cd to install with). I can't read your screen because of the glare/washout on the bottom, what is the install boot screen telling you. Does your laptop have a vga out that you can hook up an external monitor to? You might have to tell your bios to switch to the external vga out if the laptop doesn't automatically detect and switch.
I haven't used a recent boot cd but I know that the current Arch kernels activate kms for radeons now on bootup, not sure if that boot cd is compiled with kms activated or not. You can try adding radeon.modeset=0 to the end of the boot command line of the install boot entry on the cd. That will not force kms to start and should leave you with vesa/vga screenmode to start the install with.

thats My e-mail ([email protected]) u can add me for msn Messenger
Thank you all , figo

Theres not much to go on, such as your computer, hardware, monitor etc.. I will ask several questions that may give you a hint... What is your video resolution and color depth and refresh rate..Is it beyond you monitor specs?What video drivers are you using? Look in the device manager to see if there are any conflicts, if so that may give a hint..Make sure you BIOS is set for your video card such as the correct AGP settings..Will your MoBo accept your AGP for the video card?My guess it's in the video area and not your system memory..
Thats all I can think of now..Goodluck,

Problems with KT4V and AtiRadeon 9700 Pro...

Hi all,
I have lots of problems with my current configuration with games (lock ups) and even in normal use. Also I'm not able to run 3DMark through to see with kind of results would I get. Car chase (high) gets very low fps and the nature test doesn't even work. I have tried different 4in1 drivers and BIOS versions. With 1.6 BIOS version I had lots of CRC errors (should be corrected in BIOS ver. 1.7 but in expense of data rate?). Does anyone have any suggestions so that I could for example go through the 3DMark even with the expense of performance?
I had those game lock up problems also earlier with KT7A-100 RAID + AtiRadeon 64 (3DMark worked) so I bought new graphic card (didn't help) and after that I bought the new mobo. I know my config is not the best in the world, but I think it should be enough to give some happy moments in ever so demanding games... for a while...
There is also one thing that is quite strange. In my display adapters there is two drivers for AtiRadeon (primary in AGP and secondary in PCI)? I'm not expert, but isn't that weird? I have tried installing different drivers again and again (also reinstalled OS) with no luck! Trying to delete the secondary one doesn't help...
Help..........!
My specs:
MSI KT4V (MS-6712) 4in1 Hyperion 4.45, BIOS ver 1.0
AMD TM 1.2 GHz CPU
ATX pro3 (300W)
WIN 98SE
512 MB DDR (333)
SAMSUNG 40 GB (5400 RPM)
SAMSUNG DVD
ATIRADEON 9700 Pro (Club 3D) Catalyst 3.0
Soundblaster Live!

the 9700 is the most powerfull vga to date and needs power evan more than a gf4 4600
i would lbe looking at some think like an antec true powe 430 watt psu not a basic 300 watter
with ati,s own cards you need revision 1.3 as well best i can recall,but yours is an oem so im not sure
a search for 9700 in this section will get you lots of threads
