Solve : GeForce 9600 GT drivers won't install? |
Answer» That board does not support SLI. That board does not support SLI. Ouch...Quote from: patio on October 17, 2008, 04:10:29 PM BTW Where the heck have you been ? ?You know, I'm not too sure myself . . . I made the foolish assumption that it supported SLI because it was included on the newegg search for which I had chosen SLI as one of the filters. The instruction manual had a page for ATI Crossfire and then another page for "Multiple Graphics Cards". I hoped that they had merely been unwilling to pay nVidia for the rights to us "SLI Certified". After much frustration I came to the result posted by Calum. That crummy board has been replaced with an EVGA 123-YW-E175-A1 LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 750i FTW SLI ATX. It's sweet. The board's not crummy, it was just listed wrongly on the site. For future reference, any board that does not have an Nvidia chipset (exception: Intel Skulltrail, and upcoming X58) will not support SLI. Sorry to see you got misled by the description, but at least you know now.Well, the board was crummy for another reason. Newegg refunded the price because the onboard LAN was defective. Quote from: Eg0Death on October 20, 2008, 12:31:24 PM Well, the board was crummy for another reason. Newegg refunded the price because the onboard LAN was defective. At least you got your money back so you could buy a SLI support MB!I just bought a 9600 GT nvidia and shows as GENERIC VGA under display adapter. the disk that came with it wont work to install it. Ive installed the best drivers i could find from nvidia and it still wont read my video card. MAYBE im using the wrong driver. if you have any links to driver downloads that you know work or any advice it would be much appreciated. nitelife2989, start your own thread, don't hijack other threads.clearly the post above cant read... i have the latest drivers and wont work the disk i got is a xfx disk (came with the 9600 GT card. it tells me that it isnt a xfx card and nvidia says it cant find any software to match my hardware any advice.Sorry, nitelife2989. This is nto your thread. It is easier to start your own because you won't get any false information(and you won't have to deal with posts like mine and quantos's) why start another one exactly the same, i figured there is one and they have got some ideals already on how to fix it so why not give it a shot and maybe get my video card working. but apparently no one knows anything about my prob so you tell me to go else where. thought this sight was help for everyone not just you.Quote why start another one exactly the same Because those are the rules, follow them if you want help.Quote from: Calum on October 20, 2008, 10:51:19 AM The board's not crummy, it was just listed wrongly on the site. You know, I found the same thing when searching for video cards on NewEgg for another thread. I had specified certain features (2 VGA outputs, or 1 VGA and 1 DVI) and found a few listed in there as not fitting that. Given the number of things they sell on there, it's not surprising there are mistakes. Quote from: nitelife2989 on June 26, 2009, 11:26:52 PM why start another one exactly the same, i figured there is one and they have got some ideals already on how to fix it so why not give it a shot and maybe get my video card working. but apparently no one knows anything about my prob so you tell me to go else where. thought this sight was help for everyone not just you. Sorry, this particular thread is for this person's particular issue. You're more than welcome to try the solutions presented here, but if they don't work for you, start your own thread specific to your own issue and we will gladly come help. This prevents confusion with trying to solve two potentially different issues in the same thread, regardless of how similar they might seem. We're not telling you to go elsewhere, we're just telling you to start your own thread for your own issue. |

Solve : How do I identify USB 2.0 Ports on PC?? |
Answer» I would like to know how to determine which physical ports on a PC are USB 2.0, or enhanced, and which ports are standard USB ports. mmm.. try checking this http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1174. Probably it could help. Why would you send him to Apple? Quote physical ports on a PCQuote from: Quantos on June 25, 2009, 03:05:06 PM Why would you send him to Apple?No. I just want him to see that content of the page. Not necessarily to send him to apple. Fair enough. I must admit that I was quite surprised to see MS support on an Apple site though. That must really grab Steve Jobs by short and curlies.Perhaps I wasn't clear. I have two ports on the front of my tower type computer. There are two ports on the front and four ports on the back, presumably attached directly to the motherboard. I don't have the motherboard manual, as Karnac suggested (thank you, by the way). I looked at the apple website and I didn't see any thing new to me. Looking at the Device Manager doesn't tell me what port to plug into. I'm looking for a simple method to identify the physical port. Do I plug in, say a jump DRIVE, then LOOK at the Device Manager for a connection? Is there a freeware/shareware/purchased software program that would identify the types of ports? I have asked my company's geeks this question and no one I know can find an answer. Thanks for the help and replies. TundrawalkerIf you plug a thumbdrive in- windows will complain if you plug it into a 1.1 port. It won't say anything if you plug it in a 2.0 port, however.Try Everest You'll also be ABLE to get a motherboard model. http://majorgeeks.com/download4181.htmlIf you see the message that the device can run faster then that is a 1.1. port.Bet my bottom dollar the rear are 2.0 and the front are 1.1....... Quote from: Tundrawalker on June 25, 2009, 02:07:53 PM I sometimes see a message bubble that says, in effect, my printer would print faster if it were plugged into a USB 2.0 port. Usually if you see this message, you've plugged the device into a USB 1.1 port. Or, in some cases, this means your motherboard CHIPSET drivers are not installed. |

Does your motherboard have on-board video and, if so, is it disabled in the BIOS?right now i have a 9400GT INSTALLED works perfect. just basically putting a bigger better video card in.Ok, then did you uninstall the driver you used for the 9400 before attempting to install the 9600?i didnt delete it the first time i tried to install but after trying several times i went in and completly removed anything with a nvida tag and tried from scratch. then i went to nvidia site and installed the series 9 drivers (with the 9600 installed) it didnt work. so i put my old video card in (9400 GT) and that worked just fine. so the drivers were installed. but my PC is neglecting to read my 9600 as nvidia or xfx Perhaps a faulty card. You did plug the power cable into the card, right? Some people forget that.i dont see a spot for a power cable for the video card but it is running fan is spinning and a little red light is on\. is there another cable im missing? and i hope it ISNT a faulty card because i cant return it.Quote from: nitelife2989 on June 27, 2009, 11:32:43 PM i dont see a spot for a power cable for the video card but it is running fan is spinning and a little red light is on\. is there another cable im missing? and i hope it isnt a faulty card because i cant return it. Look at this page: http://www.legitreviews.com/article/666/4/ See the back end of the card? There's a 6-pin plug there. There should be a 6-pin power cable coming from your power supply specifically for PCIe cards, or you'll need to use an adapter that converts 2 molex plugs into the 6-pin plug you need.well i pluged that in and the red light went off lol i will try installing the software again. [attachment DELETED by admin]i tried installing software again and got this error [attachment deleted by admin]i restarted my comp and lost all displays tried the DVI ports one worked, i was successful in installing my software and it is now running smoothly. it was the simplest of things just a missing power cord. ty very much for you help =)Quote from: nitelife2989 on June 27, 2009, 11:50:35 PM well i pluged that in and the red light went off lol i will try installing the software again. Please tell me you turned off and unplugged the computer when you did that.lol yes i turned it off when i did that =)Quote from: nitelife2989 on June 28, 2009, 12:04:55 AM lol yes i turned it off when i did that =) Oh, ok. For a second there I got the impression that you just plugged it in while it was still going haha Anyway, so all is working properly now, right?yes everything is working fine. when i pluged the cord in and turned it on it prompted me to install and i did. now i have a much faster computer. =) |

Solve : NEED HELP to bring my comp back to life? |
Answer» I have a dell dimension e510 which i bought 4 years ago. My computer crashed bad about 2 years ago and I had 3 techs out to fix my comp. Everything was replaced in this thing EXCEPT for the hard drive (i still had a warranty). I decided to get a hard drive at Fry's due to the fact my comp still didn't work after multiple tries from techs. I purchased a hard drive from Fry's with the rep assuring me it was the correct hard drive. I put the hard drive in correctly and put in the operations disk..... all i get from my monitor is a - - - - - - at the top left corner. Am I missing something? Can anybody shed some LIGHT on this? I'm about 1 step from tossing it 50 feet from concrete. That is exactly what I'm doing I am using the OS disk dell sent. It doesn't get pass the copying point it will state that a file can not be copied.What does the CD label say, exactly?Operation System re-installation DVD "Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Version 2005 with Update Rollup 2"Quote from: fortytozero on April 25, 2010, 01:15:20 PM That is exactly what I'm doing I am using the OS disk dell sent. It doesn't get pass the copying point it will state that a file can not be copied. Clean the CD and the CD drive.the disk is in perfect condition and dell replaced the CD drive 5 months ago and it has not been used since it was replaced. |

Solve : "No Disk Entered" AW NOT AGAIN!? |
Answer» This happening to me again! On my old computer (and I mean OLD) a Windows 95 the CD-ROMS stopped working. The sound also didn't WORK so I though that might have something do do with it, since some game require a sound card. Now I got a Vista and just a few months after I get it the CD-ROMS stop working like the 95. The were working a few months ago and one day they just stop! The sound works, but when I put in a CD-ROMS and press "Play Game" a little window pops up and says "No Disk ENTERED". Please help me out. Check the wiring... There is some hardware that new optical drives will not function with. This is possibly the case and the point that I was trying to make. |

Solve : reinstalling printer w/o cd? |
Answer» Hey i was hoping someon could tell me why i can't download the printer info from the dell website? Is it because i might have a firewall prohibiting it. Please help no, your firewall shouldn't be prohibiting it. Ok so i went to techspot and downloaded info. Thank you for that, but now it still says it can't communicate with the printer. *censored*. Sorry Double check all your cables for the printer, make sure they are connected and that the printer is turned on. Is the printer a USB printer or parallel?OK so i tried every suggestion that was given and i have to say some WORKED. I am very appreciative of any and all info that was sent to me. But i finally succumbed and called Dell. So to make a long story short, all this time my McAfee Firewall was preventing me from installing the printer. Isn't that what i asked in the first place? Anyway and hour or so later i now have my printer working fine Thanks again for all your help |

Solve : Computer won't recognize external optical disc drive? |
Answer» I have a problem with my external optical disc drive. I burn DVDs and after I copy the source disc, the disc tray pops out. That is fine because I put the blank disc that I want to copy to into the disc drive. However, I watch in my computer folder as the E: drive disappears for a few seconds, burning fails, and then reappears after. Any thoughts?Can we have some more info on hardware and software please mate.I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop and the external disc drive is Samsung SE-S084B (RLNS?) The drive worked a few days ago to burn DISCS but no longer works correctly. Thanks for any help I MAY receive.How old is the external ? ? Try to burn on another machine to see if it's the drive itself... Can you try it on another machine as Patio said?Quote from: steingr3 on July 16, 2009, 07:26:43 AM The external was made this year and I just recently updated the firmware. This may in fact be the issue...YES, firmware updates "just because they are available" are seldom necessary (and very risky!) unless you have a specific issue that the update purports to solve. MANY a good component has been turned into a paperweight. This SI even more common with random Bios updates done "just because". |

Solve : Abit Airpace drivers? |
Answer» HI Everyone, I have an Abit Airpace (AW-GE870) wireless network adapter (PCI Ex1) & cannot get drivers for it. I did try to d/load from Abit but got a dialogue box saying Vista (64bit) cannot/will not use unsigned drivers. It works ok in my other PC (XP Home) Does this mean I have wasted my money on this card? Why should M/soft dictate which drivers to use? The utilities LOADED ok just not the drivers. I used Driver Detective to no avail also. Any help or ADVICE will be much appreciated.I believe in windows vista 64, Microsoft has disabled the use of non-Microsoft signed drivers so Windows will not use those.Install ReadyDriver Plus: http://www.tipandtrick.net/2008/permanently-turn-off-and-disable-64-bit-x64-windows-vista-forced-driver-signature-signing-with-readydriver-plus/Quote from: 2x3i5x on August 04, 2009, 05:22:44 PMI believe in windows vista 64, Microsoft has disabled the use of non-Microsoft signed drivers so Windows will not use those. Is there any citation for this? I'm curious for my own needs here.That's true. It should rather say "Microsoft has disabled the use of non-Microsoft UN-signed drivers"THANK you Broni for correcting my small error So basically 64 bit windows will not use any drivers that do not have Microsoft's digital signature coming with it without the help of a third party tool ...Here you go THANKS guys. |

Solve : Win 7 Machine Needed Drivers? |
Answer» Okay so I ran everst an here's is what it had come up with. I know its rather late but I also need these for use later if I get RAM for it, instead of haveing to borrow it. Also, I want to finish my experimenting an evaluation of this OS. I thought that it had some virtual like xp mode. I have whats needed there in the attachment. Provived by everst. guess I missed where everst told you about if there are any known compatibility issues with your programs and devices, and windows 7.. especially device drivers/etc. so your all set I guess... what?basically-- what does XP mode have to do with anything? That has nothing to do with drivers, it's an application compatibility setting. Basically it's exactly the same as all the compatibility settings we've had in all windows versions- the difference with Windows 7 is they add a teensy little change- it dynamically links that program with the windows XP version of uxtheme.dll, in addition to the other compatibility layers. Wow, congratulations, Microsoft, you managed to SWEEP everybody off their feet with a feature that is already present in windows Vista. woops went off on a tangent there.I thought that would allow for any devices that are xp only to be allowed to use with it till they got drivers made for it. So its like how xp was then.Quote from: squall_01 on August 05, 2009, 06:04:42 PM I thought that would allow for any devices that are xp only to be allowed to use with it till they got drivers made for it. So its like how xp was then. No. It's for programs.Not all MBoard/CPU combos support the XP mode in Win7... And yes it's for programs...not devices.ah thats a bit of disappointment some what. Quote from: BC_Programmer on August 05, 2009, 05:45:13 PM basically-- what does XP mode have to do with anything? That has nothing to do with drivers, it's an application compatibility setting.

Solve : Does It Sound Complicated? Need Your Help Here? |
Answer» I formatted my Toshiba Compaq Presario CQ60 laptop computer and reinstalled Vista Ultimate on it only to discover to my surprise, that the Ethernet driver was missing.

Solve : Disc drive doesn't pick up the discs.? |
Answer» I ahve been USING this computer for a good 5 years and TODAY, when I inserted my Sims 2 disc, I thought it was odd that the autoplay did not show up. Then, I clicked the icon instead, only to find that my disc drive did not even pick up that there was a disc in it. I tried other games to see if it was just this one game that wasn't working or if it was every game that it didn't read - it turned out to be the latter. None of my games will run because the drive doesn't pick up that there's even a cd in the computer. Please help! I have a similar problem I can't read dvds with my CD-rw\DVD ROM I installed a new drive and had the same problem. Now I know its software but have no idea how to fix it. HELP PLEASE? Start your own Topic...I'd like to bump this thread as I'm experiencing the exact same problem as the original poster. Curious if the OP has found a solution? Thx Quote from: patio on July 30, 2009, 05:52:54 PM Start your own Topic... |

Solve : Dell Driver Error? |
Answer» When trying to play the Sims 3 my computer displays an error saying my video card does not support Shader 2 or higher. Please update my card. I had a similar error occur on my other computer and it was easily fixed by Dell INSTALLING a new driver [[my ialrm display stopped responding..something I forgot the exact error.]] I figured I can fix it on this computer by installing a newer driver. However, when I try to runt the app to install it I'm GREETED by "Cannot install application. The application is missing required files. CONTACT application VENDOR for assistance." I TRIED chat with Dell but my computer's service tag cannot be found. Does anyone know what else I can do? |

Solve : Missing channel volume sliders? |
Answer» Intro: I moved my SB eXtremeGamer from an old to a new PC and, well it WORKS as expected, at least from what I can see Problem: My problem is the configuration, it doesn't show up right... I open the Sound Configuration (I think it's called that) from controlpanel Then I click Advanced and it says I have "5.1 Surround Sound" But if I open the Speaker Volume, I see this: Code: [Select]Left Volume: Silent --------|-- Loud Right Volume: Silent --------|-- Loud I saw this on the old PC when the card was in it: Code: [Select]Channel1: Silent -------|--- Loud Channel2: Silent -------|--- Loud Channel3: Silent -----|----- Loud Channel4: Silent ---|------- Loud Channel5: Silent ---------|- Loud Channel6: Silent ---------|- Loud Channel7: Silent |---------- Loud Channel8: Silent |---------- Loud In the help file I found an index over channels in an 5.1 example (Correct me if I'm wrong) Code: [Select]CH1 = Left Volume CH2 = Right Volume CH3 = Front Center CH4 = Subwoofer CH5 = Rear Left Volume CH6 = Rear Right Volume CH7 = Unknown/Unused CH8 = Unknown/Unused Since the 2 sliders I see controls volume for every channel I can't configure it as I want I have tried reinstalling drivers, with and WITHOUT the card installed Note: Both PCs runs WinXP, newer has SP3, OLDER has SP2 (Yes I'm gonna install SP3, but later) What should I do? Any help would be appreciated Btw: I don't KNOW where the problem is located but my guess is the drivers since the card works if I put it back into the old PC, so if this topic is misplaced move it please... |
