Top 20 Gigabyte 8VM533M-RZ (GA-8VM533M-RZ) Motherboard - Page 7 Questions & Answers

go to devices in control panel check drivers for cd dvd player if yellow mark on them delete and reload them

thank you

you have a motherboard system fault.
1) try different memory sticks
2) check if hard drive wired in correctly
the broad ribbon cable to it should have the stripe next the the power 4 pin plug
3) try a different video card
there are other things to try but try these first

Hi,
The big differance between the two is the onboard video uses you're system memory to run & you can increase the memory for the card but that will take away system memory. What type of system memory are you using? SDRAM or DDR?
The Radeon 7000 will use its own memory freeing you're system memory. If this is you're only choice I would suggest the Radeon 7000.
I can give you a third choice which blows away both graphics cards (combined).
Here is one. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3570059&CatId=318

How about a big list. of 4x cards able to run today's game & directX 10.

The choice is your's.

Good Luck!
Have fun...

Hi orlandotech, you are aware the Integrated ProSavage8 2D/3D graphics uses you're current system memory to function.
Couple things you can try. First download & install the video drivers I found on the internet for your card. Lets see if one of these fixes you're trouble. The link is for Gigabyte 7VM400AM-RZ VIA 1616/1617 codec 5.20b driver. Though its not you're board the video chip is the same. (VIA 1616/1617). So give the driver a chance. (Click on the link). Unistall old driver's first.

http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/SOUND-CARD/VIA/Gigabyte-7VM400AM-RZ-VIA-1616-1617-codec-5-20b.shtml

Second driver File name: 139635IShld.zip
http://www.softwarepatch.com/utilities/s3pro-security-dl.html
You have to click on; Downloading the S3 ProSavage video driver 13.93... To get the download started.
If neither of these help you're system, you can try increasing the shared memory from within you're bios. (See you're user manual for adjusting/increasing shared memory for the video).
Gigabyte's web link for you're board.

If everything above still does not help/fix. There could be a problem with the integrated ProSavage8 2D/3D graphics chip.
Suggest you buy am AGP 4X video card. This will free up you're system memory. You will again need to enter you're bios & change the bios to load the AGP card over the integrated card.
Again use you're manual to find the correct section.

Hello,

Sure, Can you hang on a moment or two?

Regards,
Worldvet

make sure you have the proper power rating and ATX connection, your power supply may not have enough wattage to power your board, be sure its at least 300W

hope this helps

You will need a manual for this board. There is no manual for USA. This link below is for euro.
http://www.giga-byte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=1766
There are two power connectors. Both can be seen on pg. 6
Motherboard layout.
There is one ATX 20 pin connector just behind the Floppy drive cable connector. The second power connector is to the left of the CPU & down behind the intergrated USB. It is a 4-pin ATX_12volt connector. If either one is not connected correctly the moard will not boot. The case to motherboard connectors is located on
pg.15. F_Panel (2x10 pins Connector) & PWR_LED = (Power LED) for case.
Please use the manual as your guide.
& please vote...

The beeps you heard, 1 long two short is the bios telling you that there is a problem with your video card. Normally you would remove & reseat it. Not the case with the intergrated video. When you added an AGP card you should have been able to get video. All video is controlled by the intergrated video controller. If your sure the radeon works than all that is left is the mb controller which can't be fixed. There is a slim chance you might get a PCI video card to work. Link to your board:

try a video card and turn off the onboard display card.

Does it do this when just the hard drive is disconnected?

update bioas and re install with proper os

just reinstall the operating system(xp). once format the c: drive. due to the wrong connection of the usb this problem has occured. please install XP

If it is not an accumulation of dust and if your fans are working properly and your ventilation is not blocked, that there was not a built-in cooling system for this integrated part makes me wonder what is going on. One would have thought it suggested such was not necessary. How old is the thermal paste in the computer? I would replace that before trying more desperate measures. Rather than presume the fan was working, I'd make sure that it was. Here are some causes and fixes: https://www.onecomputerguy.com/gpu-overheating/

gigabyte.com ask them only. the records are secret , them to you only based on serial number of the mobo. do not post serial numbers or risk losing your warranty. learn to go there, only.

ok, a simple hardware question only. w10 could careless about PSU. (facts) mobo is micro atx size 24.4cm x 24.4cm not powering up has many causes, even simply stuck in sleep mode. (power on button held for 10seonds and released last is 1 cure. of about 20 causes (up to) GA-F2A78M-D3H (rev. 3.0)or rev. 4.0????? rev is on bottom left of mobo, normal tower case. no case told the PSU is called ATX and all work here 500 to 750watts 24 pin power is normal but CPU power uses 8 pin power plug PSU.marked ATX12v psu lacking 8 pin, can use 4 to 8 adpater. vast here work, in real ATX case not micro cases. https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?d=psu+atx&N=4131%20100007657%20600014006%20600479294&isdeptsrh=1&Order=1 from you manual . dead PC are all fans dead.> that is dead PC. the monitor must be good and connected the the VGA jack if using GPU card then it must connect to the monitor the BIOS screen must work or the PC is dead or GPU card is dead. strip the PC down ,any thing in the PC shorted will make PC dead. if strip down tests fail the PSU may be bad is its fan dead too? both power connectors most be connected above or PC will be dead.

That motherboard has 4 SATA 2.0 slots. Should work well. You said "hard drive" so I am assuming you do not mean Solid State drive (SSD) I am surprised you are using Windows 7 with that MB

Hi Please provide more information. What do you want to do with your creative sub and your stereo receiver ? The Creative Sub has been built for the PC and doesn't design for RCA Jacks... if I understand your question you are gonna connect your sub to the receiver ... if so... then you need 3.55 mm audio jack to RCA Audio convertor... Please give some more and specific info about your problem.
