Re: Quadro FX 1000 gibberish text + artifacts

Posted on 2023-12-22, 13:40

If it goes away when you move the card around it's a cracked solder joint. This is a common problem from this timeframe. I have one of these cards doing this as well. It's a frequent point of failure for cards with early BGA DDR2 memory that was hot, they didn't cool it properly, and the solder …

Everything seems to be 8-bits off from where it should be - k becomes c means 107 becomes 99, so check / touch up the solder on all the address pins before attempting to reflow the gpu. Ugh, that thing's all BGA? The GPU predates the bumpgate / early lead-free solder flip-chip issues so reflow …

Quadro FX 1000 gibberish text + artifacts

Hello to all, my retro pc gpu has started to play up after a spending a long time in storage. It was working perfectly fine before that. What is my best course of action with this card? Should I blast the main chip with a heatgun or is this some kind of vram corruption? I've attached small heatsinks …

Update: Everything now works the way it should after lots and lots of trial and error. 56.64 is the best driver to use with a Quadro FX 1000 on win9x and ME, and 1600x900 @ 100Hz with my attached powerstrip parameters make it look perfect. I've installed windows ME as an experiment as I got sick of …

It is worth making sure that there is no case of forced scaling of 1600x900 to something higher (1600x1200 or 1920x1080)? This can be viewed in "Advanced timing options". PowerStrip can slightly adjust the set values as it sees fit. Sometimes it turned out to be slightly lower than 100 (99, XXX) …

If "Custom Timing" is selected and the checked operating mode is saved: https://s20.directupload.net/images/230906/8tm6yq7g.png then it will be applied every time you start PowerStrip (By default, it is registered in autoload). Up to this point, the screen may be black. If WINDOWS was not completed …

Does anyone know how to get power strip to apply its settings permanently and take control from the nvidia side? When I set 1600x900 @ 100hz all is fine until I reboot and get an out of range message.. I have to reinstall nvidia drivers for it to come back to normal again

Update on the situation: A few days after fixing it I'm back to square one, and I think this has to do with the fact that powerstrip is shareware and locks me out. I'm back to getting an "input not supported" message. Are there any alternative programs to powerstrip which allow me to bypass DDC and …

You need to disable DDC in the registry and create custom permissions via PowerStrip. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\Display\0000\DEFAULT] "DDC"="0" This will shift the scaling options to the monitor. The video card will not try to scale the resolution to a higher …

Hello all, I can't seem to go above 1024x768 in windows 98 on 81.98 nvidia drivers (could not for the life of me get a signal with 45.23 which is best apparently). If I try to set 1280x720 or above I get a no signal or "input not support" error. My monitor is an aoc 1440p 32 inch CQ32G1. I have …
