It sounds like the frequency referred to is the monitor's frequency. If it's an LCD monitor, the frequency is usually 60Hz. If you are using a VGA cable, it's guessing the frequency and has guessed wrong.
The other possibility is that the Railroad Tycoon game sets the screen resolution and frequency to something your monitor is not capable of displaying. It sees a nice graphics card and shoots the settings to the top of the range. If you can change the settings before playing the game, you might get it to work.

SOURCE: Installing NVidia 8500GT XFX 256MB graphics to A8N-VM Motherboard

The chances are that you have an old motherboard which is not compatable with the new graphic card. Or you may be running windows 98 and are downloading the driver for xp or visa versa. The probable solution, will be to sell the new card on ebay and buy the best old card you can off ebay. Or just make do with the card you already had in your computer. If you are determined to have a better graphics card. A motherboard upgrade with better graphic card may be the best answer or buy a better spec pc second hand if you don't have much money. You'll probably waiste a lot of time trying to get the new card to work and it probably never will.

Try to set your PCI-E card as a first one in BIOS. There also should be an option to turn off onboard video.

W17e says "input not supported"

Hi - here's what I found about your wide screen monitor:

The HP Pavilion w17e LCD wide-screen monitor has the following features:

1440 x 900 factory-set resolution
Supports VGA analog signal video input
Plug and play capability, if supported by your computer system
On-screen display (OSD) adjustments for ease of setup and screen optimization
Energy Star compliant

Download & install the drivers for the monitor based on the version of Windows you are running from the HP site below:

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?lc=en&cc=pe&dlc=es&product=3377546&

Once the drivers are installed, your issues should be resolved - the driver will allow only the modes that can be displayed on the monitor - probably giving you options for resolutions you hadn't seen before.

You did the correct order of things. There is a diagnostic file that comes with directx that might help you. Go into WIndows Explorer and find windows\system323\dxdiag.exe. Just click on it and see if will help you. Let me know how things turn out.

Hi i want to install grafics card in my laptop

do you want to install the driver for the card that is already in the Laptop?

Or are you looking to install a new hardware graphics card??
Because this is close to impossible for laptops.

Do you have an expresscard slot? It might be possible to get a card for something like that.
Its not a good idea but Asus introduced a graphics card for laptop expresscard slots.

I dont know what it costs (im sure tho that its way too much)
its called ASUS XG Station and you will be able to plug in a pci-Express graphics card.

The problem is: The Expresscard slot is only 1/16th as fast as the starndard PCI-e graphics port in a desktop computer. so plugging in a nice card will not result in great performance unfortunately.

as I said its possible, but highly inefficient, wouldnt recommend it.

COMPUTER GOES SHUTDOWN WHEN PLAYING HIGH-END GAMES

If your mobo wasn't compatible with your video card, you wouldn't get a screen at all.
Yes upgrade your directx to 10
and yes upgrade your power supply to a 650Watt or greater.
The problem is most likely that you have a low wattage PSU and
when your vcard request more power to run higher graphic games than the
Windows Interface, your computer shuts down because it doesn't have enough power to give.

As far as your DVD players not showing display, I need to ask you a question. Are you running Windows Vista? If you are please check windows update service. MS (might have a fix).

Let me know either way so I can suggest a fix.

Graphics Card

My bad, i was going to just ask about your PSU and went on trying to fix your problem :) If you do download rivatuner, check how hot your graphics card is running in graphics intensive games (it has a chart recorder). BTW I have a 1600XT and speeding up the fan helped a lot!
