Q: TV-OUT is grayed out on my TV-OUT capable MVGA-NVG11A/P
/AL/AT/PT. How can I fix it?
A:
1. The MVGA-NVG11A/P/AL/AT/PT needs to see real 75 ohms AV input.
However, not all TVs have this, and some have a switch labeled ‘
Ter minate
’
next to the AV inputs to turn the 75 ohms off to allow more than one TV to be
connected. If you are having this problem, especially with a smaller or
portable TV, then try another TV to see if this is a problem, or check for a
‘
Ter minate’
switch.
2. According to motherboard vendor this may also be caused a problem by
motherboards using a linear voltage regulator that does not supply enough
voltage to the MVGA-NVG11A/P/AL/AT/PT, and therefore there is not
enough voltage to maintain TV-OUT.
Q: My MVGA-NVG11A/P/AT/AL/AT/PT keeps on locking up. How can I fix
it?
A:
1. Are you over clocking either MVGA-NVG11A/P/AL/AT/PT or your
processor? If you are, try clocking back to normal, leaving the case lids off
and under clocking and see if it fixes the problem. If it does, you need more
cooling.
2. Have you assigned an IRQ to VGA in your BIOS? If not, do so.
3. Have you got an IRQ conflict with MVGA-NVG11A/P/AL/AT/PT and
another card? The only device that can have the same IRQ is the ‘
IRQ
Holder for PCI Steer ing
’. If so, try moving the card to another slot (in
particular avoid the first PCI slot as this frequently is forced to share an IRQ
with the AGP slot) or assigning a different IRQ to that slot in the BIOS.
4. Are you running a virus checker in the background? Try disabling it.
5. Try installing the latest AGP drivers for your motherboard chipset if you
haven't got an Intel motherboard.
6. If you have an ‘
AGP Dr iving Control
’ setting in your BIOS, try switching it
to ‘
BA
’ or another value instead of ‘
Auto
’.
7. If you have a VIA chipset, try enabling AGP4X. We have chosen to disable
the AGP sideband transfer because there have been various system instability
problems due to issues in the design of some motherboards.
