Ge force 2 monitor refresh rate fuziness above 60 Hz

AI Thread Summary
The Mitsubishi Diamondplus 230 SB monitor, while only two years old and under warranty, is experiencing significant compatibility issues with the GeForce 2 MX 400 graphics card. The monitor appears fuzzy at refresh rates above 60 Hz, with 60 Hz being only slightly blurred. Testing with different monitors revealed that the Diamond Pro 92 and Siemens 19p10 performed better at 60 Hz, while the Diamondplus 230 SB was consistently fuzzy at higher refresh rates. In contrast, the same monitor displayed sharp images with an ATI Rage II 64 card in a different system, indicating a potential issue with the GeForce card. Possible causes for the problem include a faulty graphics card, driver issues, or cable problems. Recommendations suggest upgrading the GeForce 2 MX card, as it is considered outdated and equivalent to older Nvidia models.

Do you think I'm being too picky over this?

This is very technical. I've just got hold of a lovely Mitsubishi Diamondplus 230 sb monitor. It's only 2 years old and still under warranty. However I have a serious compatibility problem with my GeForce 2 MX 400 card. Thescreen luks fuzzy, not blurred at any refresh rate over 60 hz. In fact 60 hz is only slightly blurred and most folks would not notice. The higher you go in Hz, the worse it gets. In fact for me any rate over 60 is not good. Links 03 golf looks very poor whatever refresh rate is set (I think the game sets its own refresh rate)Mitsubishi support say should be pin sharp at all refresh rates. I am running at 1280 x 768. lower resolutions give sharper text but refresh rate problems persist. Some might say I'm being picky, but I'm not. Let me explain. I tried 3 monitors on my system last night, and put my monitor on another system too. Here are the results.:
GeForce 2 card. Win 98
Diamond plus 230 SB 22" - fuzzy above 60hz.
Diamond Pro 92 19" similar to a lesser extent, superb sharpness on 60hz.
Siemens 19p10 similar to an even lesser extent but not as sharp at 60Hz as D-pro 92 yet sharper at higher resolutions.

ATI Rage II 64 card (m_64) in a P233 system - win ME:
Diamond plus 230 sb - pin sharp and rock steady at all resolutions - 120 Hz included.

I'm stumped as to why this is. Could it be a faulty card or a driver problem? Could it be a cable problem? I was round my friends tonight, he has a P3 system (500 MHZ I think) and a 97 Toshiba 17" monitor. HIs ATI Rage Pro card (3d acellerated I think because Tiger woods 2001 detected the card as a 3d card) did the same with his monitor, though not as badly. Could it be the fact it's a 3d card? Is the old ati card £D accelerated or not? Has anyone any solutions as I'm almost tearing my hair out? I'm thinking of ditching the card for a basic radeon.

You need to upgrade your Geforce 2 MX card. It is probably equivalent to a Nvidia TNT. Whenver Nvidia tacks on MX to any of their cards it means that the card is a generation older than the front part of the name. For example, a Geforce 4 MX is really a regular old Geforce 3.

That being said, you definitely need to look into upgrading your graphics card.

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'

Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
