Today, I updated my system running openSUSE 10.3 to a new GeForce 8500 GT card. I downloaded and installed the latest driver from the NVidia website. All went well, except at the end of the SAX2 routine, when one tests the settings the position and width controls have no effect. My screen remains...

Hi all, I recently got a 6600 GT (Asus) and I always use VSync on. My 19" CRT supports 1600x1200@75hz, but with the setting on I can never see the games going at 75 or anything above 60. How do I force them to use 75 as the maximum frame limit? I tried locking the refresh rates in Multires, but...

I have just bought a GE Force 6200 vide card. There are three connections on the back, a round 9-pin, a 15-pin D-sub, and a DVI-D Signal. My monitor has connections to a 15-pin D-sub and a DVI-D signal. Am I not correct that the DVI-D signal is the right connection to make, and that one does not...

I'm currently trying to obtain a Leadtek 7800GT Extreme edition, and they're proving hard to find (it would appear Leadtek have stopped making them/ shipping them to Australia). However, I have been able to find a Gainward 7800GT Golden Sample video card, but to be honest I don't think I've heard...

According to many developers you would be wrong. Quite a few Xbox360 games aren't even running in 720p regardless of the fillrate. Wrong. Only one game runs any less than 720p, and it's highly praised as being such a beautiful game regardless. Wrong again. The internal memory bandwidth...

what are the ideal temps for GPU and CPU?

I've decided on a 6800 GT card, more specifically the BFG branded GT. Does anyone know of another brand card that is comparable to this one on a performance level, again in GT form and function?? Or at least a site that pits all GT cards against each other?? The BFG is apparently a popular card,...

Anyone know if/when nVIDIA will make or ship these guys? Thanks

http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/Quadro_Certified/60.85/60.85_win2kxp.exe Supports nearly all of the nVidia cards. NV4 (TNT1) support is missing in the .inf file, but it is easy to add the two missing lines back in, then all cards are supported.

I just switched from a TNT to the GeForce3Ti450. I noticed now that 1 out of 5 times playing a game (or typically loading) the game program will lock or get into a stutter stalled loop. It just pauses and goes into some type of loop. Is the card? Is there a setting I should use? system 128K,...

Hi, I`m new here so please bear with me, thanks.. :O) I`ve just installed the latest detonator drivers for my GeForce3/64meg (sp7000) and it has somehow disabled my usb ports. If i uninstall the drivers they work perfectly again. Has anyone here experienced the same problem or does anyon know of...

I read somewhere that a utility exists, which is called NV30EMUL and which is supposed to solve lots of problems with running certain programs. It was released by Nvidia itself, but I can't find the download location on their site. Does anyone have a link to that program ? Contact me in this group...

G'day, Can someone fill me in on what the differences are with this chip in the nvidia cards as opposed to the conextant chips please

I'm finding a sense of ambiguity from all the reviews I've seen so far. According to Gigabyte's UK website there's 3 variants of the 5950 model but it doesn't seem to explicitly convey which, if any, have video in capture capacity. Does anyone know for sure if the Gigabyte 5950 FX has this or...

I just bought the 5950. As I always do I let the machine run for at least 24hrs straight just to make sure everything is working right. The card shuts down after about 7-9 hours of continuous game usage. I opened the machine and the card was very hot. I'm operating with a 400w PSU. Would this be a...

I think I need some help from a TV-Out expert. I'm trying to build a cheap-ass DVD viewing system from a P2 400 with Windows XP and a Riva TNT. The TNT has VGA, S-Video and Composite output. The problem is that I get a nice picture until XP initializes the display driver, then I just get...
