  • Are on the Satellite DirectX 9 compatible graphics cards?

    I think with the purchase of a satellite, but would like to know if it is graphics cards with which they come are directX 9 compatible I have mounted him and the program I video requires that.

    As far as I know each laptop with Windows XP Home edition is preinstalled with DirectX9. Video editing is generally not a problem, and you can do with each unit. In my opinion important is how the unit is powerful because of the procedure of decoding complex if you want to create own DVD.

    I did it with Qosmio G20 without any problem.

  • Game Sims 2 problems with Directx

    This work on the laptop?

    Hello

    Did you check the Toshiba download page?
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    If you will not find the driver for this device you can try to search in other series of laptops that have the same graphics card.
    In addition, you can visit the graphics manufacturer for this driver. But be careful: some Toshiba drivers can damage the graphics card. You can use it at your own risk.

    As far as I know, the Toshiba graphics card drivers have a function of protection due to overheating problems.
    In this case, you can always find the most recent graphics driver updates.

  • freezes on Hp IPISB-CH2 with the new installed graphics card BIOS

    I have the HP Pavilion Elite HPE H8 1010cs. Motherboard is HP IPISB-CH2. I bought the new graphics card GAINWARD Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 4 GB with 600W power supply Corsair CX600M. First of all, I tried my new power supply with my old nvidia 550Ti GPU. It worked perfectly. But when I replaced the old card with new GTX 970, bios freezes on the first power on the window. Escape does not work. I'll be back new graphics card, or is there still some hope in this?

    Hello @Tomas83,

    I understand that you are having problems getting your work HP Pavilion HPE h8-1010cs desktop PC with your Gainward GeForce® GTX 970 Phantom 4 GB graphics card. I think that the reason why you're facing this problem is the breaking backward compatibility on the PCIe slots was broken to the around the label Gen 2.1 and you try to put a Gen 3.0 card in a slot of Gen 1.0. In substance, it makes your computer incompatible with the graphics card, that you have chosen to use.  I provide you with an article on the overclock.net site called the final answer to the controversial compatibility of PCIe x 16 version., where the author explains what I've described and going in how he made the decision. I would advise that you read the article, if you have any questions about the issue you address.

    I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Help, audio stop working in XW6600 with nVidia NVS 315 graphics card

    Greetings:

    I just buy a renovated, XW6600 Xeon dual processor, 8 GB of RAM, Windows 7 Professional 64 bit system.  The PC comes with a nVidia NVS 290 graphics card.  Everything works fine and the speaker in the motherboard Jack produces sounds.  However, when I change the NVS 290 with a NVS 315 (it is a HP spare part), the sound stops working.  The speaker in the systray icon has a red circle with an "x" in it.  If I right click on the speaker, the playback device, it shows two TV as icon one above the other with a red arrow pointing down and a description on the righ side saying "Digital Audio (HDMI) high definition Audio Device not connected.   I have the same result in 64-bit Windows 8.1.  The problem is solved if I reinstall the NVS 290.  For both cards, I use the latest driver from nVidia.  Am I missing something?

    Any help to solve this problem is greatly appreciated.

    Hello:

    When you install new video card, it must have a HDMI on it audio chip and what happens, is that the BIOS has disabled the integrated audio system thinking not only have you installed a video card, but you have installed a map audio too.

    Then, go into the BIOS, probably in the Advanced menu, the options menu, you will find onboard audio setting.

    It will be set to Disabled. Set to active, save the setting it by hitting the F10 key and again when you go out (save the settings and exit).

    When you restart, the integrated audio system should be back.

  • Is DirectX 10 or 11 DirectX 9-compatible graphics card?

    Recently, I've been using Windows XP Professional SP3, and I realized that my on-board graphics card is old. So I decided to buy a new one and replace it.

    The problem is Windows XP only takes to support DirectX 9 .0c and I do not see much cards support this version of DirectX. All I see is DirectX 10 and 11 supported graphics card. And my question is: is DirectX 11 or card 10 graphics support DirectX 9?

    I'd really appreciate for all the answers. Help, please!

    You will need to request support or pre-sales service of the manufacturer of the graphics card in question, or at least show the number of brand and model of the card and see if a reader here wants to do a search for you.  I don't know why but before the sales are generally good to answer questions quickly when there is a potential sale pending...

  • Error code 43 (Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems) on nividia 8800 gt graphics card

    I have a computer with dual nvidia geforce 8800 gt graphics card graphics cards, but I recently started getting the following in my device manager error message: "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) »

    I started getting this message out of the blue after moving from my computer to another room.  I knowingly did not change anything on my PC and have been released for about 2.5 years with no real problems to speak of her.  I tried to uninstall and reinstall the latest driver from nvidia and had no luck.  I don't have access to the nvidia due to the device being disabled control panel.  Also I tried to restore my PC to a previous save point with no luck as well.  A short reading on nvidia forums led me to try a registry scan and repair, but alas it was without result.

    Any advice on what could be the cause of the problem and the best solution would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi rd,.

    You could try to remove one of the cards, then update the driver.

    They should use the same driver and may be coflicting at startup.

    You should also check the power supply if it is a few years old.

    Also make sure it is off enough electricity for the installation of the split card.

  • Problems with DirectX, you cannot start any game.

    Hello, I just joined here because I can't find an answer anywhere, I hope you can help me :)

    As the title says, I have problems to run games on my lap top, I can't run any game I have installed on it, they all show an error or do not launch at all. First of all for all, my computer specs:
    HP Pavilion dv7, running Windows 7 edition full 64-bit
    Intel Core i7 Q720 @1. 60 Ghz
    6 GB of RAM
    GeForce GT 320M with Directx 11
    And the games I've tried so far:
    -Roller coaster tycoon 3 Platinum (it shows Directx 9 not found)
    -Euro Truck Simulator 1 (in the settings window, I can't change between OpenGL and Directx, and it will not open with OpenGl I don't know why)
    -Euro Truck Simulator 2 (it crashes just before the splash screen)
    -Grand Theft Auto San Andreas (similar to the 2 Euro truck Simulator)
    -Age of Mythology - The Titans Expansion ('Failed to initialize')
    And I must say that all of these games has a great like 5 months ago (Yes, I have 5 months without playing an any of them).
    I will zoom checked drivers video card, update to the latest directx and I tried to downgrade my directx to version 10, but it seems to be impossible.
    It also shows, on DX diag on the section "Screen", DirectDraw, Direct3D and AGP Texture as 'unavailable '.
    Any ideas on how I can solve it? Thanks in advance, if you need info. just tell me :)

    Thank you for your quick response, I solved it today morning, I had to downgrade somehow the video card drivers and thn update again, and it worked, if anyone has the same problem, try to do this and hope it works for you also.

    Thanks, Imran M.
