Well, I think the first few had it right, this latest update makes it possible for linux guests to get 3d acceleration through the host operating system. So this means compiz and opengl games in a...

Just Wondering if there is a point to upgrading to the new 180 beta drivers? I'm currently using 173 out of fear and laziness and want to know if there are any tangible advantages/glitches in the...

Yea I was gonna say I thought this was an Nvidia specific problem within the driver... AFAIK ATI Cards shouldn't have this problem, thats the reason I originally asked if there would be support...

Thanks for the input and yes im aware of the NV cards with spdif connectors but this is a laptop so i think thats a no go.

I'm sorry I'm not sure that you understand. I'm pretty sure my soudcard has noting to do with the HDMI on my video card, but I'll try to answer your questions anyway.

lshal was so long I could...

judging by the lack of replies to my question, the answer is probably not.

Its a pretty simple question, I've read in the NVidia forums that there is no HDMI Audio support in the current drivers which would explain why I can hook up my plasma no problem and video is great...

Thanks for the advice though a bit too late... no matter though, I bought an Antec EarthWatts 550 Watt power supply it has 3x12V lines at 22A each... I just installed it and viola!!! It works.

...

Something I forgot to mention which I probably should have in the begining... I can run glxgears indefinately... I'm not sure if glxgears would cause the card to draw its max power or if glxgears...

Thanks for the input, my PSU does have the PCI-e 6 pin, i tried the 2 molex to pci-e as well because I figured it would provide more Amperage than the PCI-E cable alone, neither setup worked. I...

Oops lol I'm retarded, even with both my 12v lines I only have about 25A and I just read somewhere that this card can draw upto 180W all by itself.... I'm going to go get a beefy powersupply now. ...

Yes, thanks Kano I found the 2 Molex to Pci-E connector in the box =).... Unfortunately, it did not solve the problem, I even tried unplugging all the CD-Roms to make sure that the two molex's I...

Well it would be cheaper and faster because the new PSU would take at least a week and cost at least $80 so I think I'm going to try that first. Would you happen to know if any of the large chain...

Ok, I'm going to try replacing the power supply this week, I appreciate the advice and the help troubleshooting my problem. I will post the results once I get a chance to replace it.

Heres the little chart on the side I looked at everything that said 12V

+12v1 +12v2 -12v
10A 15A 0.3A
1.0A 1.0A 0A

I'm not sure what you mean by this? Are you suggesting that I try a different power cable from the PSU to the 9600? I can't there's only one cable marked PCI-E...

How do I figure that out? The PSU is an ANTEC and is fairly new.

I have a 350 Watt PSU.
I have the following hardware in my box:

1 Sata HDD
2 CD-ROMS
1 Nvidia Geforce 9600GT PCI-E (Yes the PCI-E is plugged in)

Everything else is integrated on my...

Unfortunately for me this means that as a last resort I will be installing windows as a test of the hardware... if windows fails then I can be sure its a hardware problem.

If not then its the...

Yea Compiz or not I still get the same problem, Its definitely a driver problem.
