MSI FX5900  128 Mbs nVIDIA CARD

Postby desertX » Thu Jan 08, 2004 9:49 am

???

Looked up problems with FX5600 and it appears nVIDIA do not support multiple screens???

On start up, I get the exterior view with the panel "blacked out" - I can get the panel but only as a seperate screen, ie, it does not mix.   All other screens (GPS etc) show a black screen.

I have the latest drivers from nVIDIA and have posted a complaint/plea for help from MSI, but they have not had the courtesy to answer me on this issue.

Anyone got any ideas???   Is there a suitable patch available???

I have the latest Compaq 6000 series running at 2 Ghz and my previous card worked fine (Nvidia 4200 64Mbs).

I am missing my flying times and need your help, please.

I don't think it's a video card problem. It sounds like your game is screwed.

But it could also be your system not set up or missing something like an AGP driver.

Also, your latest compaq presario only supports 4x AGP mode I'll bet, because they used the nastiest hardware they could lay their hands on. Old before it was born I'm

It may be worth checking the card is in AGP mode. (ie. 4x AGP mode possibly in your case)
