TV-out no longer works, NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti4200

Phalanx-Imawano
Seems that since the 30. xx plus detonator drivers, my Inno3D Tornado GeForce4 Ti4200 won't display anything on the TV out (on my TV, it just shows a plain blue screen, which it shows if Video In is selected and there's no video signal coming in).

Return of the random freezes

Sway
Well the NTFS is working great, but the random freezes have returned again, except this time not as frequent. I'm thinking it may be a program or service that doesn't like NTFS, so it freezes evey so often.

A month ago i bought a msi fx5200 (AGP) to replace my pci gf4 420 card. Installed it and used the drivers on the cd. Immediately i noticed the screen refreshing at random intervals. I did the usual troubleshooting, lowering the refresh rate to 75 - 72 -60 and also the res and colour bits ,etc.

TvOut problems on a radeon 9600

Tomay
I have a GigaCube radeon 9600 with 128MB ram. When I first tried the tvout it was working with no problems. But now it started to suck. It won't detect my TV that is connected to the tvout. If I short circuit the tvout I can enable tvout and when I plug in the TV everything works ok.

Arin
Befor I start, I would like to say microsoft legaly mailed me the huge 12 od cd beta 2 kit so this is a legal copy and not a pirated version. I've recently noticed when I type emails, eventually while typing them the program will lock up my entire computer.

DVD-ROM ain't reading my DVDs anymore

djelite
Only thing I did different on my re-install of XP Pro, was have My Computer be set up as a Standard PC, instead of a ACPI-PC. (For music production reasons. ) It will read DATA and MUSIC CDs but, that's it.

Building a PC with DDR

jwl812
I am going to build an AMD system with an Athlon 2400+ processor. The 2400+ is a 266 FSB processor. I plan on using an nforce 2 ultra 400 mobo. Does anyone know if I have to use 266mhz DDR memory or can I install the new faster 400 mhz DDR memory with a processor that runs on a 266mhz FSB?.
