Which two displays on Geforce FX 5200 ultra are possible?

Hi,
I have a Powermac g5 2x2 ghz (2004) Geforce FX 5200 (ultra?) videocard with two 17 inch monitors. I would like to chance one (or maybe both) into a bigger one, maybe a 24 inch. Is this possible and what is important to look at ? And what is the max screen size and resulution this card can have on two monitors? I red somewhere the max res is 1600x1200 and 22 or 24 inch monitors need support for 1920x1080?
Thx in advance. Ron.

Hi-
The Geforce 5200 supports digital resolutions up to 1920 by 1200 pixels.
A LCD monitor with DVI input up to 24" is no problem.
I red somewhere the max res is 1600x1200
That is for analog, not digital.

Will my NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra graphics card drive a 30" display?

I have a NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra in my G5 that I purchased 3 years ago. A colleague is selling his 30" monitor (about 2 years old) and I wanted to see if this card would let me use the monitor to it's fullest.
Will my current graphics card handle it?
Thanks ...

GeForce FX 5200 Ultra

I recently ungraded my mobo to a MSI 845GE Max. I also tried to install the PNY GeForce FX 5200 Ultra video card. I am running Windows 2000. When I try to install the drivers for the Video card, the system locks up on reboot and the login image is distorted. The PNY FAQs suggest upgrading the Intel chipset, which I have done. Still seems to be in conflict with the onboard vga controller. When I disable the onboard vga driver, the system locks needing a hard reboot. System runs great on the onboard graphics card, but I want to install a 3D card.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks,

Hi gdiodati,
Try disabling your onboard VGA, then set your Init. Graphics Adapter Priority to AGP.
Set your AGP Aperture settings to 128MB or 256MB.
Set your AGP Capabilities to "Auto"
Make sure that its running on at least 4x(1.5v) or max 8x(0.8v).
Check if you've any other devices sharing IRQ with your VGA card.
All the Best... :D!!!

Another dual display problem - GeForce FX 5200

I've seen lots of questions about dual display problem, situation when trying to connect two non-apple vga displays to your graphic card.
I have GeForce FX 5200 graphic card, with 2 display output's. And two DELL 17" vga LCD displays.
I manage to connect 1 display regulary with dvi to vga converter, but for other display I tried several difrent converters ADC to DVI to VGA, and it just did NOT work.
G5 could see other display in display settings, in arrange option I coud see two identical displays, but I don't get anu picture (desktop) on other display???
Is it problem with output's on my graphic card (Gforce FX 5200), could it be soloved with some ADC to VGA converter?
P.S. Dr. Bott ADC VGA Extractor is not compatible with GeForce FX 5200????

Dell Widescreen Displays and GeForce FX 5200

Hi everyone,
I have a PowerMac G5 1.6 GHz with the original GeForce 5200 that came in it.
I'm shopping around for a replacement monitor and am considering Dell's 20.1" wide model (2005FPW).
Does anybody have any experience with this combination? I see that some have had problems with the DVI connector on the Dell displays. I also can't find anything that assures me that my video card is capable of displaying at the Dell's native 1680x1050 resolution.
Any help or other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to avoid the high price of the Apple displays.
PowerMac G5 1.6 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.5)

It's with some comfort that others have the same problem I do, getting my Dell 2005fpw to interface with my GeForce FX 5200 on my PowerPC G5,running OS 10.3.9. I've seen elsewhere (can't remember where) Mac users raving about their Dell monitors. They know something I don't, I guess, and that's why I'm in this discussion.
I wonder how users of the Apple Cinema 20" are able to interface with the GeForce 5200, when the Cinema requires the same 1680x1050 resolution as the Dell. I've accessed the nVIDIA site to download an update, but no luck. Think I'll go back in & look at the resolutions available on the GeForce 5200.

20" Apple Cinema LCD Display and GeForce FX 5200

Hi,
My video card is GeForce FX 5200. I want to upgrade my monitor (finally!) to 20" Cinema Display. Do I need to upgrade my video/graphic card too? If so, what would be your recommendations?
Thanks!

Hi-
The GeForce FX 5200 will support the 20" Cinema Display.
If you want to upgrade the 8x AGP graphics in your G5 (what model G5?), the ATI Radeon 9600 PC & Mac version would be a good upgrade from the 5200:

Two Display Cards

So I sprung and got a 2nd display card for my MacPro, in hope of a special screen arrangement.
I had two monitors, set to span.
With the two cards, I now have three monitors... but my options are limited.
I was HOPING to be able to span display 1 & 2, and then mirror display 2 with display 3, but that isn't an option. All you can do is to mirror all of the displays, which is not what I'm looking to do.
Does anyone know of a software solution that will make this work like I want?

Click the "?" at the bottom right of the "Arrangement" tab of "Displays" system preference and scroll down in the help window for instructions on mirroring just some of the displays.
"If your computer is connected to more than two displays, you can specify that some are mirrored displays and others show the extended desktop. For example, if you have three displays, you can have two displays showing the same information and the third display showing the extended desktop. To set up a combination of displays showing mirrored and extended desktop images, set up the three displays as an extended desktop, and then Option-drag a display icon onto another display icon to mirror the two displays."
For best performance, the mirrored displays should be on the same graphics card.

GeForce FX 5200 Video Card

Hi everyone!
I'm finding conflicting info concerning the graphics card requirement for FCE HD.
I have an original 20 inch iMac with a G5 Power PC processor and a GeForce FX 5200 Video Card, running Panther on the internal HD and Tiger on an external FW drive.
Will FCE HD work with the GeForce FX 5200 Video Card?
Many thanks,

Hi(Bonjour)!
On Apple Support specification for original G5 20" iMac :
http://support.apple.com/specs/imac/iMac_G5.html
We can see:
"NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra with 64MB DDR SDRAM with AGP 8X support"
On Final Cut Express HD specifications page:
http://www.apple.com/finalcutexpress/specs.html
We can see:
"An AGP or PCI Express graphics card compatible with Quartz Extreme or an Intel GMA integrated graphics processor in MacBook or Mac mini"
Quartz Extreme needs at least:spec says:
"Quartz Extreme functionality is supported by the following video GPUs: NVIDIA GeForce2 MX and later, or any AGP-based ATI RADEON GPU. A minimum of 16MB VRAM is required."
FCE HD3.5 application must be installed on your system disk to run without problem, and needs Mac OS X 10.4.6 (Tiger) to run.
So, yes, your iMac can run FCE HD 3.5 .
I Currently use FCE HD 3.0 on my other computer: an iMac G4 17"

List view to include a column or field which would display the sequence number in a view

I have a view for a list which displays items following any condition or sorting. Now, i would like to display the list items in such a way that
the auto incremented numbers are displayed as an arbitary field which would display the numbers such that
its just going to display items in sequence. Is there anything that can be done in sharepoint designer for the list to accomodate a column/field which would display the sequence numbers.
Thanks

There are columns such as
Name, Goals
and it should be arranged in descending order of Goals and it could be paginated but also a column should be displayed for ranks e.g
Name Goals Rank
A          40     1
B          39     2
C          30     3
So, the idea is the ways it is sorted in descending order, if we possibly have a counter then we could display the ranking of the items.
Thanks

Two displays for MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC graphics card ?

Is it possible to have two displays simultaneously connected to this graphics card:
http://www.msi.com/product/vga/R6950-Twin-Frozr-III-Power-Edition-OC.html#?div=Overview
The card has two DVI-outputs "DVI Output: 2 (Single-Link DVI-D x1, Dual-Link DVI-I x1)". I can use one display at a time and the second display only shows "No signal" error. I would like to use two displays when playing PC games, is it possible with this craphics card? Both my displays have VGA connector cables, and they are connected to the card with an VGA/DVI adapter.

Quote from: Svet on 19-January-12, 22:12:52
what monitors you are using and what resolutions you're trying to use?
Both monitors are old models: 1) Panasonic PanaFlat PF90 2) acer AL 707.
I'm not sure what resolution I was using on acer when I tried to connect both monitors, but now I'm using PanaFLat with 1280 x 1024. Maybe I should try to set them both on 1024 x 768 and try again.

G5 Second Display using the GeForce FX 5200 - Non-Standard

I have a Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5 Macintosh.
The display adapter installed is as follows:
GeForce FX 5200:
Chipset Model: GeForce FX 5200
Type: Display
Bus: AGP
Slot: SLOT-1
VRAM (Total): 64 MB
Vendor: nVIDIA (0x10de)
Device ID: 0x0321
Revision ID: 0x00a2
ROM Revision: 2060
Displays:
VX2235wm-3:
Resolution: 1680 x 1050 @ 60 Hz
Depth: 32-bit Color
Core Image: Supported
Main Display: Yes
Mirror: Off
Online: Yes
Quartz Extreme: Supported
Display:
Status: No display connected
I want to attach a second display to my machine, but the second plug on the card is a non-standard DVI-type connector. It looks like this:
x x x x x x x x x x X X
x x x x x x x x x x -----
x x x x x x x x x x X X
...with 10 rows of 3 as opposed to 8.
I have had trouble finding an adapter to use to convert this to VGA (which is what I meed to connect my second monitor). I've searched the Apple Store online to no avail, as well as Google. Perhaps I've had no luck because I don't know the name of this part.
Any help is much appreciated!

Hello! Does the port look like the one below? If so you'll need an adapter. Tom
Actually, HERE is the page i was looking for that shows and describes all dvi connections.

GeForce FX 5200/dual display

Hello yall,
quick qestion, does GeForce FX 5200 support dual display config.
if so, why are there two different ports on the back instead of the
same?
many tnx.

First:
Plug in each of your HP displays to make sure they work in the DVI Port. This will rule out those.
Second:
If you still have the ADC display, try plugging that back in w and w/o the DVI display.
Third:
If the monitors work in the above, then see about using your adapter on another computer. It seems as if it may be faulty.
What brand/model is it?

MSI's Geforce FX 5200-T128 = FX 5200 Ultra !!

I recently bought an MSI Geforce FX 5200-T128 and decided to OC it and replace the stock heatsink to help the OC'ing a bit. It comes with a heatsink only and no fan. I got this cooler from an old Macintosh machine that could fit perfectly into the GPU. When I open the stock heatsink on the card I was surprised that on the GPU there is "FX 5200 Ultra" written on it. Is it really the ultra version ? If it is, then how come the Detonator (Both MSI's and Nvidia's) recognise it as a Geforce 5200 series only...not ultra ?? I read in the net that sometimes you can make an ordinary card and turn into the ultra ver. by changing the BIOS ! Can someone explain to me about this ? Am I really having the Ultra ver. GPU ??? Can I alter the BIOS so it works like an ultra ver ?? THX ppl......

hi,
i have the same card with you. o/c'd it to its limits [290GPU/464DDR] normally it had to reach 320GPU and 500DDR but the ram on card 5ns soo highest is 464Mhz[i am sorry]. you can o/c it to 320GPU-480DDR but at these speeds;
in 3dmark 2003 wings of furry test it passes some frames like slow cards and 2001SE it crushes on looping 3-4 tests...
when i relased that it is working but graphics are little choppy you can see...
290GPU&464DDR is the best stable solution i could able to find .. i o/c'd it with riva tuner and 3D turbo express .....both gives the same result...

Which two displays on Geforce FX 5200 ultra are possible?
