ASUS GeForce - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support - Page 7

What operating system are you using? The way to begin fixing this would be to hold F8 while your computer is booting up. This will bring up a menu that will allow you boot into safe mode, safe mode with networking..etc. In this menu you will find an option to disable automatic restart on a blue screen error. Once you do that, restart again..and then write down the error that pops up. That will allow us to determine what the problem is. Chances are there is an issue with the video driver but we will know for sure once we get the error code sorted.

the 9400 is a pretty slow card. Try games with lower requirements or lowering the graphics settings

the beeps are post during post the very first work is done by the ram,all the memory in the ram is first transferred to the hard disk,and remains active untill turned off.

make sure that your RAM and Cmos battery are securely seated

One bad lead can cause a computer to continue on a cycle or to shutdown or fail to detect your hard drive

Test all leads that attach to your hard drive including electrical extensions,IDE,SATA

the leads from your ((motherboard to your hard drive)) make sure they have a secure connection and are not faulty or just replace them they could be faulty

a computer needs its connections to continue its cycle and to have and end to function the beeps are post pre operating system searching for some hardware it could be RAM cd/dvd hard drive or motherboard all of these must have secure connections for the computer to work make sure all leads that are attached to your drives dvd\cd 3 1/2 inch floppy have secure make sure the connections and are not faulty even the electrical extensions or just replace them they could be faulty a computer needs its connections to continue its cycle and have an end so any faulty leads will end up with a computer error hope this helps

One of the drivers controlling the device notified the operating system that the device failed in some manner.

If you have already run the Troubleshooting Wizard, you might want to check the hardware documentation for more information about diagnosing the problem.

Brand Desktops dont always let any hardware to be installed you should call HP to see if that video card is supported and see how they can help you.
Ive seen HP computers that block out Wireless Cards (laptops) and not letting boot

Hello jean ,
I found a Vista 64-bit driver here : http://www.omegadrivers.net/index.php?option=com_phocadownload&view=file&id=14:nvidia-omega-drivers-1.169.25&Itemid=97
Windows 7 should follow soon but you could give this one a try first .
Best regards ,

Welcome to fix ya

Hi you can download the drivers here

http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_175.19_whql.html

Just remember to choose the appropiate operating system

hope this helps. if this solves your problem please dont forget to rate

I'm assuming you have the card installed properly, have run your installation cd and, as you're good as far as video. I don't know what system you have and there appears to be support for Win XP, Vista, and Windows 7 through Asus. This particular card does not provide sound. You will have to use on board sound or, get a sound card. It is a low profile card so, you may be able to install a sound card in your PCIe slot(internal) if you have room or, you could go with a USB sound card(external).

I don't know where you got your drivers but , if you don't have a cd you can get them here;

Pick your o/s and you will want the latest"VGA" and in utilities yu will want Smart Doctor and Gamer OSD.

The card is defective: it overheats and fails - go and get your money back. Or at least try to have it replaced.

Its a GPU problem.
It can be overcome by doing reflow technique.
You need to do following.
1. Uncover ur PC casing
2. Locate the nVIDIA PCI-E Card.
3. On the card, locate the power supply pin of GPU fan.
4. Remove the pin.
5. Switch on ur PC.
6. Still u may get scrambled display/wavy screen, but wait for 5 minutes.
7. Press reset button on ur PC.
8. Ur PC might work.
9. Switch it off.
10. Connect the power supply pin back as it is.
11. Power on ur PC.
thats all.

Removal of fan power, makes the GPU to get high heat, it a reflow technique.
Remember, not to touch the GPU portion (heat sink), as it may be in higher temperature.
Try this, it works most.

It sounds like a driver or ram problem. How do you have it hooked up. DVI or HDMI. I suggest you uninstall all Asus software through "Programs and Features", and down load from Asus. You want to uninstall the driver, The Smart Doctor, and the gamer OSD. go to this link here;
http://support.asus.com/Download/Options.aspx?SLanguage=en&type=1
1 In "Product" scroll down to PC componenets and point on and click Graphic card"
2 Serires Nvidia series
3 Model EN9400 series
New window -click on your o/s- click on confirm.
Your drivers will show up. You will see (VGA), click on that and choose the most recent one. Click on "Global" and download. When fifnished, restart and come back here.
Pull up the drivers again using the process above and whwn you get to downloads click on (utitlities).
In that list you want "Smart Doctor" and Gamer OS,
different downlods. Make sure you restart after you are finished with these two.
****Note*** You have to download VGA first in order for this to work.
The only other thing I would consider is how much RAM you have. If 512mb, you're pushing it.
If you have problems let me know at "add a comment"

Hello there, I am the Expert that will be helping you today. My name is damnor01.

Welcome to Fixya.
Heat is an important factor. Your computer system is getting too hot, the culprit is more than likely the Central Processing Unit.

Clean your computer of all dust pay attention to the CPU cooler and install some fans in your computer system.

120mm fans are quieter than 80mm fans and they provide greater airflow. Install the biggest your chassis can support.

Also see my published guide entitled How to install Graphics Drivers, Nvidia and AMD Radeon!!! as you may need to install the latest drivers for your graphics card.

You may also want to scan your computer for viruses as they are known to overload a computer system bringing it to it's knees.

Fixya offers such services!

Thanking kindly
