Probably because your not getting a BSOD.
I take it my suggestions didn't work?
Try the Sapphire Forums. You might get better support there.
Good luck. ____________ Blue Binary |

Originally by: Aaron Just a few thoughts,
- install motherboard drivers - obtain latest gcard drivers - upgrage XP to service pack 2 - install direct X - install sata/raid software (if any) - flash the Bios - set motherboard settings to default - review BIOS graphics settings, and ensure its set correctly
Has all of this been done?

Now I'm assuming the track you're on allready is the correct one, I'd still like to know though; what monitor have you?

After looking at the saphire forums it seems to me a few people are having this problem.
Could it be a power problem? :S

Edited by: Traska Gannel on 16/08/2007 20:59:55 Make sure that you aren't setting the display mode any higher than the supported 1280x768 probably at 60Hz - though it could be a bit less. (One source claims it can do 1280x1024 as well but it apparently looks squished). The screen going black often results when the video signal is outside the range that can be displayed by the monitor. Presumably you've also installed a monitor driver. Since it works in VGA and Windows safe mode - you know that at least the computer, video card and monitor operate at minimum levels so the odds are good that the problem is a screen setting or driver issue - though it could still also be a power supply issue.

if your gcard is pci-express, does it has a 6 slot power conecctor?
does your motherboard have a power slot specifically for the gcard?, normally the 4pin power connector that goes into an IDE HDD will fit into this slot, it is normally found at the bottom of your motherboard, tell me the exact name of you motherboard.
If you dont know it, install this software;
http://www.filehippo.com/download_everest_home/
it analyses all the hardware on your pc, and gives you exact names and where to get the latest drivers from. |Use this to tell me the name of your motherboard.
Its an AGP card, my motherboard is Asus a8v with the via k8t800pro/vt8237 chipset.
Look at your card though. A card that new should have extra power from the powersupply connected to it! Did you do this when installing the video card? Nvidia cards will automatically dial back video performance if you dont have the card powered by the powersupply molex connector. Maybe ATI doesnt have this feature and just goes into powersave mode. _______________________________________________ RuntimeError: ChainEvent is blocking by design, but you're block trapped.

One branch is soley going to the GFX card, the other is powering my two IDE HDs and 1 SATAII HD (i removed the power from my dvd drives since i have an external USB one)

That is my power supply, does it seem unsufficient?
Iv just swapped my x800pro back into my PC and it would go to power saving mode when i put the digital input in, but when i stuck the analogue input into the GFX card it would work... possible problem? :D

Can someone please tell me how to setup my Monitor/GFX card for digital input/output please...
On my x800pro there is an analogue input and a digital one, on my x1950pro there are two digital inputs only, no analogue...
Could this be the problem? How can i fix it?

I just plugged my x800pro back in and used the analogue connector on it, it works totaly fine in analogue but when i try and swap the connector over to the digital output (the plug with the 24pin and 4small pins surrounding a long thin pin) it just wont show on my monitor.
Could this be the issue?
This is my monitor http://tvmarket.com.au/p106-10_lg_L172WT.php

Lol....you could try another DVI (digital) cable as well?
It is strange as it works when you are booting and in safe mode...only when you load up into windows proper and are using the drivers does it screw up...most strange indeed.

Originally by: Thridi I havent touched anything in my BIOS yet, but i did everything else. -----
I quickly read through your replyÆs, I thought I seen you say you had a onboard video card on the motherboard? If this wrong, please just dis-guard this part of the post.
If you do have a onboard video card, step one would be to go into the bios and disable the on board video, because leaving it on will cause a conflict with the video card your installing.
The next thing is, what kind of monitor are you using? Make sure the monitor you have can support the res youÆre trying to use.
After all that, if the 1950 has a dvi port on back (which it should), you should have a little adapter that came with your video card if you didnÆt buy it as a(OEM). Put the dvi to svga adapter on the dvi port and then run your monitor that way. Even though you have 2 monitor ports in the back of the card, you might have to run it in the primary port (dvi).

Right, i think i may have the problem now.
My monitor came with two cables
DVI-A DVI-D
I am using the DVI-A cable and putting an adaptor on it to turn it from analogue into digital. now after looking at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvi
and finding the DVI-D cable that came with my monitor, iv found the monitor DVI-D cable is a DVI-D Single Link.
I havent tried plugging in my DVI-D cable yet because im downloading more drivers, but i will try this in a few min.
Does this seem like it could be the problem? :)

And hello again all... Just read up and caught up with the updates I missed last night. The most interesting thing I noticed was your monitor model, and it's native resolution of 1280x768. Though it isn't a particularly strange one, it's not a standard one you'd normally use - I'd guess the monitor comes with XP drivers so they're worth installing so that Windows knows what resolutions it can and can't use.
As an LCD you also want to be using the DVI-D cable. Not only because you'd have a useless cable laying around otherwise, but it will improve the display qulity. It basically saves the output signal being converted from digital (which is what the gfx card wants to send) to analogue (which is what the adapter is) back to digital (which is what the monitor wants to receive).
Geeky info alert - http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/108
Did your new power supply turn up ? And is it installed yet ? Any luck ? Any other news ?
