Drivers for Geforce 6600

I have just purchased a dual G5. For the past 2 days I have been searching for driver upgrades to the Nvidia 6600 graphics card but I cannot find anything anywhere on the web.
Can someone please help?

Hi Jaymom
I understand you but you must know that graphics used in notebooks can not be cooled like graphic cards on desktops and because of that there is no much driver updates. The priority of notebook manufacturers is hardware protection.
A friend of mine has Qosmio G30 (European model) and we have tested many games very successfully. Graphics is really fantastic and every game runs without bucking. The best example is Call of duty 2. I am really hooked on this game now. :) Because of that I am really surprised that you write about bad graphics. You have to set all graphics options to max level!

Screen Rotation for GeForce 6600??

Hi! Is there any way to rotate the screen on a Quad G5 with the Geforce 6600 video card? I was used to rotation on my G4 with my old Radeon 9200 card and I miss that feature on the Quad. Thanks, Tom

HI-

Upgrade to Leopard. Geforce cards (other than the AGP 5200) are rotated in the Displays preferences.
I was used to rotation on my G4 with my old Radeon 9200 card
ATI has always been good for providing features.
Just for fun, hold Option when you launch Displays Preferences.
Does a Rotate option appear?

Hi
i've Satellite M30 941 with GeForce FX5200 like video card. I use Fedora Core 2 on my notebook and i'm looking for drivers for that device that i can install on my pc, can you help me?
I've noticed that when i scroll video, video becomes completly white, i don't see any write. What does it depend on?

Hi,
I don't know so much about Fedore Core 2, but I also tried to install Linux on my Toshiba Notebook and found following interesting sites in the net.
http://newsletter.toshiba-tro.de/main/index.html
and
http://linux.toshiba-dme.co.jp/linux/index.htm
The first one is from Toshiba Europe and there you could check compability and driver versions.
perhaps this could help you finding an appropiate driver!

Need Vista 64-bit drivers for Geforce Go 7900 gs for Satellite P100-437

Hi,
I just installed Vista 64 and the vista driver on the site is not recognised by windows and Nvidia doesn't have a driver available on their site either. It is for a Toshiba P100-437 satellite laptop, running a Nvidia GeForce Go 7900 GS graphics card.
What do I do? Any help will be appreciated, thanks!

Toshiba does not provide any 64bit drivers; neither for Vista nor for XP.
I would recommend checking the 3rd party sites like;

Where do you download display drivers for GeForce 770m (gt70 20C)?

I have noticed that my new MSI laptop has been experiencing strange framerate drops in some games. Dota 2, for example, will drop from 60fps to 9fps, and will not come back up unless I restart client. Assassin's Creed 3 does the same thing, but can be solved with an alt-tab
So I went to look for new Geforce drivers. I was shocked to find that I could not install the nvidia drivers from nvidia.com. wow!
So are we at the mercy of MSI for display driver updates? I did manage to find a driver on MSI.com, but it was actually an older version than the one that came pre-installed with the machine.
So is there anywhere else we can download more up-to-date drivers from??? As this is my first every MSI notebook, I am concerned that MSI is not going to provide timely driver updates.
Please tell me it isnt so.
cheers,

311.83 is the latest MSI driver. MSI will release a new driver if necessary. It is also quite normal that the nvidia drivers don't work with customized OEM solutions. You can ask MSI for the next release: >>How to contact MSI.<<
You can also give the nvidia beta 326.19 a shot as it seems to work with current MSI notebooks like GT70 2OD (780m): https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=171241.0

Geforce 6600 GT VIVO - Problem of network after WDM drivers installation

Dear All,
I have a big problem and I am not able to fix it. I have a MSI Geforce 6600 GT VIVO with the last nvidia drivers.
I have tried to install the WDM drivers (the one on the CD-ROM or the last issued on the nvidia site) and any
time I did it a new network connection was created (Microsoft TV/Video Connection).
I cannot remove it and it was still there after several reboots. The problem is because of the new network
connection I'am not able to have internet connection (high-band modem using ethernet ; freebox).
Any idea to help me. I didn't find any solution on newsgroups.
André
My config : Windows 2000 (updated) - Asus 7N8X-X (last drivers) - Athlon XP Barton 2600 - MSI 6600 GT VIVO
Direct X 9.0c - 512 Mo - Connection to internet by freebox (Speed 20 Mo) ethernet

I have a problem that seems virtually the same as Andre31bis's. I recently installed an MSI NX 6600GT VTD128 on my system (AMD Athlon XP 3200+, MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR--BIOS version 7.7, NForce chipset drivers version 4.27--with onboard NVidia LAN chip, 1 GB Corsair TWINX1024-3200C2 DDRAM, Turtle Beach Santa Cruz sound card, Windows 2000 SP4 with all updates, and DSL Internet service). I have the latest NVidia drivers (including video capture) for the card and it works perfectly except that the video capture drivers create a conflict with the network connections. Upon initial installation of the video capture drivers, the VIVO functions work quite well, but when the system is rebooted, the software loads extremely slowly, the network connections do not load, preventing network access, as well as the loading of Norton Antivirus's autoprotect, and ZoneAlarm takes many minutes to load. On such subsequent reboots, looking in the adapters and bindings tab of the advanced settings of network connections shows that none of the network adapters have loaded. I tried the advice given to Andre31bis by user_name, but that had no apparent effect.
Clearly, however, the network interface the video capture drivers try to establish conflicts with the LAN interface and prevents either from loading. I checked the DMA and IRQ settings while the drivers were installed and functioning and no conflicts were indicated.
Does anyone have any other ideas on how to solve this issue?
Thank you.

Looking for Nvidea GeForce 6600 OR Similar Graphics Card for Quad G5 PPC

Hi there!
Wishing a Happy New Year to yo'all!
Was wondering whether someone might help me out with a minor issue I'm having...
I have recently acquired a Quad 2.5GHz PPC G5 (with PCIe). When I bought it, it came installed with a NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 graphics card, which works just fine. Heard these cards are very good for 3D rendering, etc...
However... As I am an audio engineer, I don't need a flashy graphics card... Instead I need "flashy" sound cards...
I have two PCIe UAD-2 Quad cards for all my UAD plugin needs within Logic Pro... And I have PCIe Symphony X card for my Apogee (AD16X & DA16X) front end sound conversion. All which sound and work very well... So far so good!
But here's the problem... My Quad PPC has 4 PCIe slots, which should be fine for my arrangement i.e. one slot for graphics card, one for PCIe Symphony card, two for UAD-2 Quad cards... BUT the damnable NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 takes up two PCIe slots!!!
I have looked on line to find out what the Quad 2.5GHz G5 PPC was originally supplied with: an Apple OEM Nvidea GeForce 6600. However these are rare and hard to come by now-a-days... And I can't wait forever till one pops up for sale.
So... Can anyone recommend to me a graphics card that will work in the Quad 2.5GHz G5 PPC... AND take up only one PCIe slot and be able to run a 30 inch DVI Apple display i.e. it needs two DVI ports???
I'd even do an out right swap for the NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 and a good condition and working Apple OEM Nvidea GeForce 6600!? Heard this is more than a fair deal...
Cheers in advance!

Hi-
You can buy a Geforce 6600LE at We Love Macs. They aren't cheap, though.
This eBay seller has several of the 6600LE cards, at a much better price. The seller is very reliable (from experience) and carries the positive feedback to support my recommendation.
This 7800GT is also a good possibility. It takes only one slot, and provides much better performance than the 6600LE.
This flashed 7800GT is also an option. A flashed card is one that has the PC ROM replaced with Mac ROM. Again, this seller knows his stuff.....
As with the 6600LE, the 7800GT has a dual link DVI to support the 30" ACD.
After you get a replacement card, might try and get a few quid for the FX 4500 on eBay.
An original will sell better than the flashed models that are selling there.

Hi, Polynomial. Try posting the question in one of the G5 forums. Most MacBook Pro owners aren't likely to be of much help with it.

NVIDIA GeForce 9400M Drivers for Yosemite?

Are there updated video drivers for the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M in a mid 2009 MBP for Yosemite?

I recently upgraded to Yosemite on my mid 2009 MBP and now I have maximum resolution of 1080p - so i suspect its the nvidia Graphics card that needs essential updates. Also after extensive search Im starting to get the feeling Apple have cut us off ... no surprises there.

Update drivers for NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M

Need the updated drivers for NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 330M that comes with my Vaio Z VPCZ128GX , the drivers in eSupport are from 2010, and nVidia software does not detect the 330M card
VPCZ125GX

I've updated my VPCZ1 to 340.43 drivers but it still won't accept the transition to Windows 10, seems like they just want to find any excuse to back out of their promise of a free upgrade for windows 7 users. For anyone who is editing .inf files and still not able to get it to work, you need to update your intel drivers first. The process is a bit awkward, I tried to update the Geforce with a few pre-modded drivers, using the device manager. It would always freeze during installation or ask to reboot and start in 800x600 resolution. I also tried the latest intel drivers but was unable to update them at the time, so I gave up on the idea for a while. Later, I ran into trouble running GTAV, the game would start fine but suddenly crash to desktop while loading. I remembered how the latest driver broke the intel driver, so I rebooted with the laptop in "stamina", installed the latest compatible onboard graphics driver and rebooted in "speed" mode, which incapacitated the 2010 nvidia driver so I had a new "unknown device" under "display adapters" in the device manager. I pointed it to the 340.43 drivers (latest driver I could find for 330m which still uses inf files) which I modified earlier and success, GTAV now runs. Editing inf files is surprisingly simple, just find mention of "330m" in one of the inf files (which are lists of subsys numbers) and replace the subsys number with the one from your card in device manager when using the 2010 drivers. (there are alraedy a lot of them in the inf, I guess it's true that no two 330m are the same) I've always left it on "speed", ever since it booted with the new drivers, The GPU is easily underclockable using Precision X for more battery life. http://i59.tinypic.com/swd3lx.jpg Only side effect I know so far is that the screen rotation doesn't work, although I never tried it with the old driver combo.

Drivers for NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M on my Macbook?

I have been trying to get an answer to my question re: drivers for my NVDIA card. I have searched the community ( apologies if I overlooked something), but it seems there is no answer. I am not dualbooting my 2013 MacBook ( chipset NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M). I get the error that my card needs updating.
I contacted NVIDIA and their response was as follows:
“We do not have any driver listed for Mac OS for this chipset, you will have to contact Apple and check with them.
The laptop graphic cards are not manufactured by NVIDIA, they are customized, designed and manufactured by the laptop manufactures.Also, for laptops, the primary source of driver update is the driver from the laptop manufacturer”.
Apple, if you haunt these boards, – can you weigh in on this? Thanks in advance to anyone else who can shed some light on this.

betababe,
what is giving you the error that your card’s driver needs to be updated?
You will not receive an answer from Apple here. If you want an answer from Apple, contact them directly.

Drivers for NVIDIA Geforce 320m (Windows 7).

I've got my new MBP 13", but i don't have a cd with the bootcamp drivers for the video card, because I've lost my recovery DVD. So i'm seeking help with that. I wonder where can i get these drivers, because NVIDIA ones, even beta, not supporting this chip yet. Maybe i can get a recovery dvd iso or dmg somehow. I've got bootcamp 3.0 and 3.1 update installed on my windows machine, but still no luck, because the 3.1 version is dated mid january and my MBP is mid 2010.

Somewhat related, my 13" MacBook Pro with BootCamped XP freezes when I open up BootCamp from the control panel and move the brightness slider/window around. To fix this, I'm trying to install the newest NVidia drivers.
With a NVIDIA GeForce 320M display card installed, trying to install the newest NVidia drivers on XP, I continuously get an error say "The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit."
One way to solve this, as suggested by someone on another forum, was to install the drivers manually, and at the 99%~100% during installation, when it shows the error message "Your installation cannot continue, will revert back to your old display drivers when you click OK" at which point I don't press OK, but immediately hold the power button down for 5 seconds, after I re-boot, my new drivers work fine.
Except,
I can't control brightness from the control panel's bootcamp slider, nor keyboard shortcuts, it's continuously 100% brightness.
I've been working on this problem for 2 days, and I can't yet properly install the new NVidia drivers into XP. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

NVidia PNY GeForce 6600 AGP Flashing Issue (ROM says too large for EEPROM)

Here's a puzzle for anyone willing to assist (I've heard japamac has a good history with this sort of thing so *fingers crossed*).
So, I got a Quicksilver Power Mac G4 recently for free (gotta love the university just throwing stuff away) and it was the 800Mhz Single Core model. I've recently acquired a Sonnet 1GHz upgrade cpu nib from a thrift shop for $7 and also got my hands on a free and working PNY 6600 AGP card (256mb). I had recalled the 6600 having the ability to flash a mac rom so I thought it would be a sure thing, especially after having done similar build-up for my old Dual 500 Gigabit Ethernet machine, instead opting for an ATI 9600 and a 1.8 sonnet proc which I then sold for $180 bundled with Leopard.
I followed this tutorial (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2645959?start=0&tstart=0) and downloaded the latest nvflash and the rom image hosted on the site. According to windows the rom file is 32kb, and when I opened up nvflash it stated the rom already installed was around 64kb. I followed all instructions to a t and even opted to erase the eeprom as was suggested after backing up stock.rom.
So far so good...however when I try to flash the nvmac.rom file, I keep getting some error about a PCI board id not matching (having to override w/ yes) shortly before getting an error message that states that the .rom image is too large for the eeprom. How is this possible?
The card in question is a PNY GeForce 6600 256MB DDR DVI-VGA-TV AGP Video Card G606600ABD25T+BC4BCA
Am I just SOL because it actually is too large, or am I missing something here? I've re-flashed the stock.rom back onto the card and all works well on the windows front, but I was really hoping to have a mac 6600 on the cheap...any suggestions?
If you need any specific info, just ask. Will try to respond asap. Other than the rom size error message, every other step of that tutorial works just fine.

Unless I am missing something, the 6600 ROMs on the Mac Elite site all (3) show a 128 KB size. The 6600 PNY is listed as 128, and a download and check of the file confirms it.
If your cards ROM is 64 KB, you will need to solder a new, larger chip on the board.
Did you download a 6200 ROM?

Anybody found Vista x64 drivers for nVidia GeForce 8600M GT (Macbook Pro)?

These guys at Apple are launching 64-bit Leopard and I still cannot find 64-bit graphics drivers for my laptop under Vista. It makes me sick. Their Boot Camp 1.4 vesion contains only 32-bit drivers.
It's the laptop manufacturer (Apple company) who are responsible for providing me with drivers, not the graphics card manufacturer (nVidia).
I have been waiting for 5 months already and will wait for another 1-2 months and if the drivers don't appear I'm going to sell the laptop because I simply cannot watch DVDs, I cannot play games without properly installed grahics card.
If you have the drivers, please let me know.
Best regards.

first of all, I think apple will never really "support" windows 64bit...
anyway
try -> http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
my vista 32bit works with the drivers from this page.
but u need to read the "Quickstart Guide" before you try installing the drivers
cheers

Qosmio G10-133 Drivers for Other Devices

Hi peeps.
Yes I know this is an old laptop. I recently had to re-install the software due to hard drive failure. I always have problems. Toshiba installed a new motherboard years ago with the upgraded video chipset Nvidia Geforce Go 6600. Since then I have always had problems reinstalling using original disks. I have never been able to reinstall the Qosmio Player and always end up with the laptop rebooting after software was installed and going to blue screen of death. I have now given up with the qosmio player and the install disks (Windows MCE) and just install Windows XP. However here is the problem:
Under Device Manager I get a couple of errors:
Other Devices states MULTIMEDIA VIDEO CONTROLLER as not working.........what an earth is this and where do I find the driver?
UNKNOWN DEVICE as not working.................................what on earth can this be and what drivers?

Hi again,
I went and did what you suggested, but it can't find a vendor and the 2nd item is unknown. The "System" showed the following:
System Information report written at: 02/13/11 09:19:59
System Name: QOSMIO
[Problem Devices]
Device PNP Device ID Error Code
Multimedia Video Controller PCI\VEN_4444&DEV_0016&SUBSYS_00011179&REV_01\4&AD1 B67F&0&48F0 The drivers for this device are not installed.
Not Available ACPI\TOS6205\2&DABA3FF&0 The drivers for this device are not installed.
I couldn't find vendor 4444. I assume that the problem is that my motherboard is different to the one my disks are for. To get the graphics card to work I had to download the drivers for the g20 model not the g10. (I assume that this is due the original being an nvidia 5900 and this board has nvidia 6200.
