geforce 4 mx 4000 on p3v4x
Hi,
I have an asus model p3v4x motherboard with a via appollo pro133A chipset I got a new nvidia geforce4 mx 4000 instead of an old voodo3. I tried to install the new video card and it did not worked well. Most of the times it caused a full system halt or shut down. I searched the internet and changed the bios setup so it will work in agp 2x mod instead of 4x mod. I also updated the display drivers and installed the via 4in1 drivers. The final result is: The bios does not recognize my new geforce. The geforce is being recognized by the bios only after I previously worked with the old voodo3. If the bios recognize the geforce it is working well. But after a complete shutdown the bios does not recognize the geforce anymore. If the bios recognize the geforce then a restart (not a shutdown) won't cause the bios to stop recognize the geforce. What can be done to resolve the problem? Thanks for the help Amit |

the model is - geforce4 mx 4000 8x-64bit tv ddr 128mb
I don't think the card has a fault because I have tested another geforce4 mx 440-se and the results were almost the same. I am starting to think the card is too advance for the motherboard. Maybe the ddr memory is a kind of a problem? The memery on the motherboard is sdram. "CapFusion" CapeFussion...@hotmail.., com wrote in message ... "Amit Brabbing" wrote in message ...

What can be done to resolve the problem? Either your Motherboard is not compatible, or your power supply is insufficient. I had similar problems when I got my GF4 ti4200. I had to wait another month until I had enough money to upgrade my motherboard. Your other option is... never reboot -- Jafar As-Sadiq Calley Senior 1st Officer Livewire Airlines http://www.livewireairlines.com/ |

But I doubt it due to too "advance". MX4000 and MX series is about the same as GF2 card except not using DDR memory. Try update your P3V4X http://www.asus.com/support/download...&Type=Latest&S Language=en-us Especially VIA driver for your GART [AGP] 4in1 Or maybe also 4x registry key When this freeze / halt in Windows, most like those driver or utilities of some component is out-of-wack. This is my ¼ cent of the penny for you worth. CapFusion,... |

http://www.techspot.com/reviews/hard...4x/index.shtml says mobo
is agp4x it could be the mobo is too old to recognize the newer vid card or that the power supply has an insufficient voltage/power to support the new vid card. how much power (watts) does your power supply have. try booting into safe mode ( F8 while booting into windows ) and uninstall all of the video related programs and reboot back to window and reinstall your vid drivers. you can pick up a new power supply at http://www.computersurplusoutlet.com look on page http://www.computersurplusoutlet.com....asp?C=18&s=85 and you can find a 550 watt ps for $24 USD ( you should upgrade the powers supply anyway as newer stuff eats up a lot of power "Amit Brabbing" wrote in message ...
