NVIDIA 9800 GT and MSI 945GM5 - 640x480 in 16 colors

[jezevec10]

I have Windows 7. Graphics card NVIDIA 9800 GT and MSI mainboard 945GM5. Maximal resolution is 640x480 in 16 colors. When I disable a PCI bus controller - resolution and color are normal, but the hardware acceleration is disabled. How can I fix it?

PS: I am using 196.21 driver for NVIDIA.

jezevec10, welcome to the forums.

Start with installing/updating the chipset driver,

INF Update Utility - Primarily for Intel® 5, 4, 3, 900 Series Chipsets

Also make sure that the onboard video is disabled, had a look in the manual for your board and didn't see a setting for it so if it still shows up in Device Manager, disable it from there. Also go into the bios and make sure the following setting,



is set to [PCI-E-PCI] and not the other way around.

It still does not work.

Thank you for your answer, but it still does not work. When I disable
Intel (R) 945G/GZ/GC/P/PL PCI Express Root Port - 2771
Rresolution and color are normal.
the information about the video card is written:
"This facility did not find enough resources that could be used. (Code 12)
To use the device, you will need to disable some other devices in the system. "

I have already updated the drivers from your link but it's still the same.

Did you install the drivers for your video card,

or is it using whatever default driver that Windows installed?

I am using lasted video card driver (196.21) from nvidia.com.

Now I am using lasted video card driver (196.75) from nvidia.com but it's still the same.

Now I am using lasted video card driver (197.45) from nvidia.com but it's still the same.
Any ideas?

 

[not so gray matter]

I'm not sure where you're getting your motherboard chipset drivers from because I cnnot find a board with the model number 945PM5.

Please download CPU-Z and tell us what it says on the mainboard/motherboard tab.

If it's an intel board it should be D945xxx if it's an msi, I don't know.

Also, you motherboard may not look the say, but make sure you've got your graphics card plugged into the correct slot... It needs a PCIe 2.0 x16.
