Driver Video Demaged?

[air]

Hi,

My computer got suddenly into bio's with the following message "Driver Video NV4_disp not working correctly".  Last week, a lightning damaged dsl line and i changed ethernet card. I use UPS, but the holes are for analogical line.  Do I have to change the Driver Video?

The error code was the following:
BCCode:ea
BCP1: 88582020
BCP2: 89094080
BCP3: 89083198
BVP4:00000001
OSVer:5_1_2600
SP: 2_0
PRODUCT: 768_1

Thank you.

According to Google, you should reinstall your Video Card Drivers.

I suggest you try that first.

[air]

Thank you Carbon. How do I reinstall the Video Card Drivers?

air

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Find out your Video Card (you can do that if you go to Run --> type DXDIAG and press Enter. Then go to the Display Tab.

When you find out what it is, go to the manufacturers website and download/reinstall drivers.

Thank you.

 I found the company, asustek, and product, asus v9520 magic v43, 45a

However, i could not locate it with asustek, but with other websites.

Then specifically do i have to do now? Is it advisable to download from other sites?

Thank you.

Hmmmm....

Download, and install Everest: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html
Open it, click Computer, then Summary.
In upper menu, go Report>Quick Report-Summary
Save it in text file, and paste it in your next post.
Don't include anything under line Debug - PCI

Thank you Carbon. Here is it:

Thank you.

Which VGA's version?

air

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

I would get the latest version.

[air]

Hi Carbon,

Thank you for your great help. I have tried  a few times to download it, but it stops after about 15/20 minutes.  Maybe probram too large.

Thanks again.

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Just curious,are you using a download manager ?You seem to be using dialup service is why I ask?

[air]

Hi Carbon,

Done it. Now, what I do?

Thank you.

air

Sorry Street,

I do not understand the question.

[street1 (RIP)]

I was just wondering if you had dialup and was having trouble downloading
large files and not able to resume download  if it stopped.

Follow Carbon Dudeoxide's advice.

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

For some reason, my internet is screwing around, and I can't download the file anymore.

When you open the .zip archive, what files are in it?
If you see a file called Setup.exe (or just Setup), click it.

[Broni]

Yeah, there is setup.exe inside.
Uninstall old driver, first!

Hi,

I have moved overseas and could not communicate until today.

I have opened my computer and apparently Bios not recognizing Hardware. 

I do not know what happend since last week.

thank you.

air

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Welcome Back!

I have opened my computer and apparently Bios not recognizing Hardware. 

What do you mean?

[air]

Hi Carbon,

Great to find you again.  I try to explain. I moved from Europe to Northamerica and took the pc with me on the plane. Once i tried to turn it on again, it gives the message: "Can not find the hard disk. Put in system disk and try again".

We have tried few things, but apparently bios not recognizing hard disk. Finally, we took off the hard disk from my pc to the one I am currently using as a slave. However, we have not been able to make it work this way. We can not detect my hard disk.

This weekend, I will move the hard disk back again into my pc and will be able to tell exactly what the program writes once i turn the pc on.

I thought it might have been the xrays at the airport or maybe the final consequence of the lighting. So, a problem in the hardware somewhere...

Thank you again.

When you moved from Europe to North America,did your voltage change?
Was Europe 220 Volts and North America is 110 Volts and you have not changed the voltage selector on the back of your computer ?Most power supplies can be switched from 110 to 220 volts,or vice versa.

[air]

Hi,

I did not do it, but apparently the pc did it by itself. Or not?

In the back of the computer, there is not a switcher. Do I have to open it and look inside?

Thanks
air

[BC_Programmer]

In the case where a power supply is set to 240V and is being supplied 120V... Nothing happens. Unless the power supply is extreme cheap, in which case they sometimes lack the switch altogether.


You say you can't detect the hard disk- does this apply for attempts to slave the drive into another computer as you mentioned.

[air]

i do not know, because my hard disk was not attached correctly as a slave...
