well i got this Intel Chipset Utility from intel.com RE: Intel Chipsets by .blade// on 06-17-2005 at 09:03 PM
Well 1) Upgrade to 2.91 RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-17-2005 at 09:06 PM
lol RE: Intel Chipsets by .blade// on 06-17-2005 at 09:14 PM
quote: 1) Well what is this identifying, your motherboard or your processor? 2) Integrated graphics is only on some cards and you'd actually have to move your monitor cord from your graphics card to your motherboard (and it would not use your video card at all).

yea johny ur right..i had verison 3.05 and i used 2.91 and then it detected the things that 3.05 didnt detect..hmph and i had some hope for my probs RE: Intel Chipsets by .blade// on 06-18-2005 at 03:36 AM
quote: Do you have the latest video card drivers? RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-18-2005 at 04:06 AM well i think i do..i went to intel.com and downloaded what i thought i shud download but they all said i have the latest and didnt need to upgrade RE: Intel Chipsets by CookieRevised on 06-18-2005 at 10:10 AM
Intel is a company that mainly makes processors, they don't make motherboards and other stuff for computers (much). I stronlgy doubt that you've downloaded the correct latest drivers for your integrated vga, let alone drivers for the integrated graphics chip. Such drivers are found on the homepage of the motherboard manufacture (which is for sure not Intel), nowhere else... RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-18-2005 at 12:35 PM
quote: ok, i doubt that my cousin still has the manual for the comp..it was 3 years ago when he sbought the computer and she is not home right now..but i'll try to look for it on the motherboard quote: oh what i downloaded never finished installing because they all said i dont need them so they stopped..and deleted the download file..if u want i can still give u the link? RE: Intel Chipsets by mad_onion on 06-18-2005 at 12:56 PM what so do you only have intergrated graphis or what? do you have a agp graphis card? if you dont then the intergrated graphics is enabled. yeah i think seeing what you are trying to download would be helpful because that is a very strange error. when does this opengl subsystem error occur, when trying to load a game? RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-18-2005 at 01:13 PM
no i dont have a AGP graphics card..i dont even have AGP slots..(they are brown rite) i have told i have PCI slots. RE: Intel Chipsets by Apatik on 06-18-2005 at 02:49 PM there's no 'windows home edition', but a 'windows xp home edition' or 'windows millennium edition' RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-18-2005 at 02:56 PM
quote: heh sorry i meant Windows XP Home Edition EDIT: i looked at the motherboard inside the comp and i cudnt see where the manufacturer..i saw some chips that had Intel on em and sometin other and then i saw this TUW-LA on the motherboard..but i doubt that that's the one RE: Intel Chipsets by mad_onion on 06-18-2005 at 03:24 PM
hmm see the thing is updating your graphics chipset on the motherboard might not even solve the probelm RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-18-2005 at 03:58 PM

oh ok well that is REALLY important lol i wish you had metioned it sooner. RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-18-2005 at 05:39 PM

quote:ermmm... that's what I asked(?) (Also, you said before that you did install the drivers(?)) quote:The type number isn't something you'll see on chips, it also isn't something from Intel (as I said before). Motherboard type numbers are very cryptic and consist out of letters and numbers and are printed on the motherboard itself... List all the numbers and letters you'll see on the motherboard itself (thus not on chips etc). Also, try to take a closeup picture of the motherboard so we can direct you a bit to where to look... EDIT: As a last resort do this: go to http://www.lavalys.com/products/overview.php?pid=1 and download EVEREST Home Edition (it's free). After you've installed it, run it. After that you'll see a list on the right site: 1) select the top item (EVEREST vx.xx.xxx) 2) select the menu Report > Quick Reports - All pages > Plain Text 3) Now everything about you PC is diagnosed, this can take a while though... 4) A new window is presented, there you select Save to File 5) Save the file and attach it in an email to me (see the email address in my signature). Note that I ask to mail it and not attaching it to a post on the forum because it will contain personal information which you don't want to put in public... --------- quote:Integrated graphics, as said before... quote:No, not neccesairly.

RE: Intel Chipsets by mad_onion on 06-19-2005 at 08:42 AM wow thanks that cleared a lot of stuff up but i dont know what to say you see to have new drivers and software for everything i dont know what to say, cookie seems to be "in the know" im sure he can help RE: Intel Chipsets by squall_leonhart69r on 06-19-2005 at 09:40 AM
Give us a look at the DXdiag Display page RE: Intel Chipsets by John Anderton on 06-19-2005 at 09:57 AM
Err ... where did u get that utility ?? RE: Intel Chipsets by squall_leonhart69r on 06-19-2005 at 10:04 AM
its on the intel website RE: Intel Chipsets by surfichris on 06-19-2005 at 10:12 AM

quote:Err ... Surfi i mean where did he get the original thing. That system whatever that is the point of the thread. I know that dxdiag is a part of dx RE: Intel Chipsets by CookieRevised on 06-19-2005 at 12:23 PM What "thing", what "utility"???? please read posts carefully (much has been said and suggested already) and be as clear as possible yourself. And only post when you know what you're talking about... quote:Hence we are trying to find out what type of driver he needs RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-19-2005 at 02:28 PM
well Cookie i got a picture of my motherboardand. I also sent u an email last nite with the report info so check ur mail RE: Intel Chipsets by squall_leonhart69r on 06-19-2005 at 03:58 PM
Argh, not am MSA board.. i hate them RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-19-2005 at 04:00 PM well that was all i found..i dont know where else to look RE: Intel Chipsets by squall_leonhart69r on 06-19-2005 at 04:12 PM
HEY HEY RE: Intel Chipsets by Garndell on 06-19-2005 at 04:45 PM Or use a thrid part program like SiSoft Sandra or CPU-Z (http://www.cpuid.org/cpuz.php) which should tell you what motherboard you have. RE: Intel Chipsets by squall_leonhart69r on 06-19-2005 at 05:01 PM erm... hes already tried Everest, and if it does't say it in there it won't say in cpuz or SiSoft RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-19-2005 at 05:57 PM hmm im waiting on CookieRevised answer, i sent him an email that he wanted me to send..so im kinda waiting and trying to figure out if i have Directx 9c or Directx v6.0 .. cuz everest says i have v6 and dxdiag says i have v9 i dont know.. RE: Intel Chipsets by CookieRevised on 06-19-2005 at 06:38 PM
quote:erm, try to keep up yourself , this is already asked and SikStyles is (was) checking it... quote:often but not always on all types of mobo and with all biosses... --- Now, SikStyles, First of all, mind you that there are almost always 2 seperate things to consider! Firstly, what is your motherboard/graphics card/etc capable of supporting. This is know as hardware support. Then there are software drivers which could support also several things and often support higher versions of the ons you find on the hardware devices. But, a hardware device supporting a specific version is much better then a software supporting the same version. Software support means the software drivers need to emulate the stuff and thus uses lots of resources, speed, memory, cpu power, etc. Hardware supported versions are thus much faster en resource efficient (it isn't your CPU that needs to do the calculation, but the hardware chips themselfs; your CPU isn't used in that case) For you this means that your hardware supports DirectX 6.x. But the graphic drivers you have support DirectX 8.x. Thus... if, for example, a game uses only DirectX 5.0, your graphical processor does all the work. If a game requires DirectX 8.0, your software drivers come into action and do the supporting (but of course, this is much much slower and CPU intensive). The DirectX 9.0 comes from the DirectX software itself and doesn't nessecairly mean you can run in DirectX Video 9.0 mode. This is only when your drivers support it also or when drivers aren't needed; Remember that DirectX is only a name for a whole array of software support: you have "DirectX Sound", "DirectX Video", etc. So it is quite possible that your sound drivers do support DirectX 9.0 (only your graphic drivers don't)... This same story goes for your graphical memory also (you once asked this question on the forum). Your integrated graphics have only 4MB of memory on board (this means locally inside the graphic chip so to speak), but it can use up to 32MB of your system memory (this means non-locally, thus from your total computer memory). --- Now, some of your specs: Motherboard: Asus TUW-LA rev.1 (ASUSTeK Computer) Motherboard Chipset: Intel Whitney i810E (03/13/2002-I810E-TUW-LA) BIOS Type: Award Medallion 3.05 (03/13/02) Video Adapter: Intel 82810E GMCH Graphics Controller (32 MB) 3D Accelerator: Intel i752 GPU Code Name: Intel i752 (Integrated 8086 / 7125, Rev 03) Available Local Video Memory: 4096 KB Available Non-Local Video Memory (AGP): 32768 KB Installed Graphics Driver in Windows: i81xdnt5 (id 6.13.01.3198) 6 => Windows 2000 and Windows XP 13 => DirectX 8.x support 01 => ? 3198 => build number Your integrated graphics adapter isn't supported anymore. This means no updates for drivers anymore or anything. But older drivers can still be downloaded from here. Important note: you have a custom build driver from HP based upon the latest version already, so you don't need an update! But, your integrated graphics adapter doesn't support many modes/instructions which modern games require! eg: 32-bit Rendering is not supported. Hardware Transform & Lighting is not supported, etc. And it seems that OpenGL isn't supported either (although I'm not sure of it; but even the fact that this is questionable is a reason to believe it isn't supported fully at the least) --- My suggestion, buy a cheap but decent and up-to-date AGP graphics card... RE: Intel Chipsets by SikStyles on 06-19-2005 at 07:01 PM
well thank you for this long explanation..i get it now but 2 things RE: Intel Chipsets by CookieRevised on 06-19-2005 at 07:12 PM
quote:Make sure all your settings are correct! Aswell as in the BIOS (for the HDD and memory) as in Windows XP Pro (for compatibily stuff).. Also, I noticed you have two different types of DIMM memory modules. This should (edit:) NOT be a problem, but it could be a problem though... quote:I meant buy an external one, AGP, PCI, VESA (do they still make those ), whatever...
