nv4_disp stopped working normally
February 2nd, 2020
Anyone knows how to solve this?
This is my spec
AMD 64 2800+
512 RAM
6600GT driver 169.28
Try updating drivers.
I know what is the problem. This usually occures when your AGP aperture size is set to very high or very low in your BIOS settings. Go to your motherboard BIOS settings and set your AGP aperture size to 64MB. Also, if that dosent work, then as said, try ypdating your driver.
Sol 1 as said- Install the altest driver
Sol 2 – Manually decrease h/w acceleration for u r video adapter
or with that card try going back to the 90 series driver
think the 160’s were not intro’ed till the 7 series cards
thanks a lot.. going to try it now…
i already updated the driver to the latest version.. will let u know the result

mine using 6600gt pcie, and mobo msi neo3-f, and i dont know how to set the size…
can anyone help me on that?
I don’t think there is an “AGP aperture size” size if you have PCIe, which replaced AGP
some pci-e motherboards have agp aperture in the bios
if u wanna check it, use everest
http://www.google.com?t=910929
click motherboard – chipset – agp controller
u could try uninstalling ur drivers
then use this tool
http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1655
and then re-install the drivers
got another problem..
after i follow the procedure, i try to test my 6600gt…
then suddenly stuck, and now I couldnt start windows in normal mode..
a lot of stripes produce by gfx..
I can only load in safe mode…
will upload pic later…
does this mean my 6600gt not working anymore?
Procedure being changing aperture size?
If something broke after changing it, change it back to what it was before ok.
yupz..
then i restore my default bios.
still got problem..
when I entered bios, all words in not readable.
after i follow the procedure
with everest or in the bios ?
all words in not readable.
got another card to put in there to test it with
or
unplug the PC for 15 mins then try it
or
unplug & open the PC and check that the video card is seated firmly in place, or just remove it and re-seat it
I follow both…
with everest as well as bios..
Already reseat the gfx card… still this problem occured
havent turn the pc off yet
anyway, this is the screenshot. You can see all the stripes
Ok…mate.. another cause of this error is that your motherboard’s onboard graphic card is interfering wuth your PCI graphic card. You need to disable the onboard graphic card from the bios.
my mobo dont have any onboard gfx card..
any other suggestion to solve this problem? other than throw the card away
ok…
Download driver cleaner from here:
http://~ Dead file host ~/files/75859096/Driver.Cleaner.NET.v3.2.0.9.Regged_by_shanu.rar
1. Uninstall drivers thru control panel, then reboot
2. Have a look in windows explorer (right click start and then go to explore) look for any nvidia folders that contain the numbers of the drivers you have alrerady installed, if they are there then delete them, reboot again if you have deleted some files
3. K now use driver cleaner install it and ,let it search for nvidia drivers, once its cleaned reboot again.
4. ok now install latest nvidia drivers
going to try that now..
but before that, if the problem is with driver, why the problem still occured in bios?
^^^
ok…forget about bios for now. Do what i advised u above
ok.. done that…
still the same… but I discover something at the display properties

OK…this is getting worse….one last try from my side.
Download this file:

To install it, unzip the file and run the setup.exe Do not run the setup from the compressed folder.
So what does it do? It closes the RX55 memory register in BIOS. The RX55 register’s official name and function is Memory Write Queue (MWQ) timer. The MWQ timer is actually a timing device included in the memory host controller to prevent write data being held in the memory queue too long. After the data has been in the queue too long it times out. This timed out data is then given a higher write request priority. Now that might sound nice � a bit of extra performance BUT the procedure fails when overloaded. 3D games and Win XP put too much load on the memory queuing timer procedure. The nVidia new driver exaggerates the problem even more as the driver enables nVidia cards to use even more memory than previous driver versions.
So in a nutshell it�s a memory timing problem that only happens when the RX55 register is opened. Some motherboard manufacturers have already released new BIOS that have the register closed. In other instances, this patch is needed.
– Load optimized defaults in your BIOS and do not modify memory settings
– set your memory settings in the BIOS less aggressively and test
– make sure you have an adequate power supply
– update your BIOS and test
– disable or enable AGP fast write and test (this has worked for some people)
The reason that I make these suggestions is that I think some people are confusing general instability because their systems are being pushed to the max, with this error. For example, if you have a 250watt power supply, 128mb RAM and have all your memory settings at max then you may be asking for trouble � the symptoms may be similar to this issue but it�s not the same.
orait.. I already installed the file u gave in windows safe mode (up until now, I couldnt boot windows in normal mode)
so it request for restart windows. I restarted my windows, but still the same problem..
the conflict still occured..
forgot to mention that my windows can only run in 4 bit color 640×480
^^^
WHAT!! Oh…i’m sorry ..but can u specify wat windows u r using and its service pack.
windows xp, sp2

look at my GPU clock, running at 44MHZ?
did this happen after changing ur agp aperture size or after uninstalling ur drivers?
btw everest is a system information software it could not do any changes to ur system settings
i donno, coz i did that at the same time..
I uninstall my driver, reboot, change the aperture, played game.. crash.. restart, and the problem occured
is that above output from everest ?
any PCIe settings in the bios ?
is the bus speed set to 1x instead of 16x ?
any speed step settings in the bios ?
there a fan on the card and is it working ?
there any AGR (Advanced Graphic Riser slot) settings
you have 2 grafx slots on that board ? PCIe & AGR
this the right board
K8N Neo3-F is there a bios update available ?
is that above output from everest ?
Yes
any PCIe settings in the bios ?
is the bus speed set to 1x instead of 16x ?
any speed step settings in the bios ?
I dont really know.. Coz the words inside bios in unreadable. The problem still occured no only in the winxp but also in bios
there a fan on the card and is it working ?
Yes
there any AGR (Advanced Graphic Riser slot) settings
you have 2 grafx slots on that board ? PCIe & AGR
No, I just got 6600gt.
this the right board
K8N Neo3-F is there a bios update available ?
Already update the bios….
try clearing the cmos
http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=prodfaqanswer&faq_no=1066&prod_no=170&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=171&cat3_no=7
i think u have to turn off ur comp b4 doing this or refer to ur mb’s manual
I hesitate to say it but sounding more & more like a bad video card
got another PC to put the card in or another card to try in your PC ?
you could try replacing the motherboard battery and check for that clear CMOS switch ain’t a bad idea
the only other thing I can think of that might cause all of the above would be the power supply
i dont have any other pc to plug my gfx card…
anyhow, thanks a lot guys…
one more question, how do we check for faulty power supply?

already test that one.. still got problem..
thanks anyway…
testing your psu with a multimeter
http://www.driverheaven.net/guides/testingPSU/or you can get a PSU tester, seen them for under $20 on-line, some under $10
http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewproduct.asp?PID=PS-ACC&updepts=PS-ACC&DNAME=Power+Suppy++AccessoriesAlready test my 6600gt with another PC..
the problem still occured… so bad gfx card I guess…
time to change a new one
the problem still occured...well that sucks
there are vid card bios/firmware editors google “flash 6600gt”
probably won’t help but thats about the only other option
