WARNINGS, ADVICE, AND REQUEST FOR HELP
1. There appears to be a bug in the latest NVIDIA 91.31 Forceware drivers causing DirectX 3D animation to fail. I am using a 3800 Athlon 64 single core at standard settings without any overclocking, good tested memory on Bios v3.50. When I ran the TEST 3D ANIMATION in the DIRECTX DIAGNOSTIC program I got lines all over the TV and LCD screens while running the second bouncing square test. Running this test also caused the mouse cursor to dissappear after the test is complete. It can cause system lockup. If I Disable 3D acceleration in the DiagX program the problem stops. When I changed to Forceware driver v82.05 the problem goes away. The problem first became apparent while viewing the BATTERY visualization in FULL SCREEN MODE with Windows Media Player on MCE 2005 SP2 with all updates (54 of them) applied. It is not apparent in any display less then full screen. You will not see it if Media Player is not in FULL SCREEN MODE.
Has anyone else seen this?
2. Has anybody tried to overclock a Athlon 64 3800+ single core? If so, what settings worked for your particular chip?
3. Has anyone noticed that the sound coming off the motherboard JAUD1 pins is different than that coming from the back panel Line-out? The JAUD1 signal appears to have no depth (pre-amp) while the J1 Audio Header Line-out has full depth. Anyone heard this on headphones while listening to a CD?
4. I'm testing out the Intervideo generic codecs for DVD playback. I tossed the Cyberlink codecs because they were too sluggish. What codecs work best for HD playback? Do you need PureVideo codecs by NVIDIA or are there other alternatives?
5. Like everyone else my 6150 GPU runs at 57C to 63C at room temp 75-77F depending on load. What is the maximum temperature this chip can handle before it flakes? At what room temperature does this board in a well ventilated system flake? I have other computers that will flake at a room temperature of 80F and an in-case temp of 84F (Abit KT7A-RAID). What extremes can this K8NGM2-FID motherboard take? There is no point asking MSI because they are in the business to sell product so what experiences has anyone had here? What is the flake point of 6100/6150 and 410/430 NVIDIA chips?
