I just fixed an odd post-upgrade problem: resume from standby caused my system to 'forget' DualView and use only the external monitor, leaving a black screen on the internal LCD. The trick seems to be setting UseHWSelectedDevice to 0. I thought I should document what I did, in case someone else stumbles in here with a similar system. My computer: Toshiba Satellite P25-S477 Operating System: Windows XP Professional SP2 Graphics board: nVidia GeForce FX Go5200, 32 MB memory, BIOS version 4.34.20.25.14 Internal display: 1440x900 LCD External display: ViewSonic Q22wb, 1680x1050 LCD, attached to analog VGA port Old driver: version 44.89 This computer isn't used for gaming. Mostly it's for web browsing and running good old Word 97 and Excel 97.

But when we added the external monitor, we noticed a few annoying display bugs (e.g., black bars covering lines of text in Word 97), so I wanted to try a driver upgrade. After a lot of reading on this forum, I decided to try version 72.14. Someone posted (somewhere, lost the link) that this was the latest driver that fully supports FX Go5200 power management without needing extra tweaks. I know that 72.14 is available on this site, but I decided to download it from nVidia instead. It's here: From the same page, you can download the Release Notes, the Display Properties User's Guide, and the nView 3.5 Desktop Manager User's Guide. I used the to make a replacement nv4disp.inf file.

I left all the Enhancer choices at their defaults except for the VMR Fix, which is suggested for drivers after 71.89. After a lot of failures I ended up making the following 3 changes by hand in nv4disp.inf: In the nvSoftwareDeviceSettings section, added this line: HKR, DevSwitchSuppressMask,tab/tab%REGDWORD%, 7. Apparently this tells the nVidia resource manager which device to resume from after standby. This was very important for my DualView setup - with the original setting of 1, when the system resumes after being in standby or hibernate mode, about 4 times out of 5 the internal LCD will come on for a fraction of a second, then shut off, and the system will be in single display mode on the external monitor only, rather than DualView. Changing UseHWSelectedDevice to 0 seems to have fixed this problem. Anyway, it's working. The mystery black bars in Word 97 seem to be gone.

Of course, there's a.new. bug now: a tiny section of the Word 97 window that doesn't get redrawn properly. But we can live with that. (Um, actually I haven't yet tried disconnecting the external monitor to see how the driver handles that change, so that's still an unknown.) Many thanks to the laptopvideo2go.com team and the forum members!

This upgrade would have been impossible for me without the information you've collected here. Thanks - that helped me sort out a problem with resuming from standby on my Toshiba Satellite Pro M10. The card I've got is a GeForce4 420 Go This is probably obvious to anyone who's patient enough to read what's on this site, but I'm too lazy so I had to find out the hard way. I'm using Pieter's INF version 30.71, and I made all the changes in the original post, and changed the following value to 2 (as suggested by the comment below): MapOSD3ToNV2 HKR, MapOSD3ToNV,%REGDWORD%, 2;Set the above value to 2 if you experience Resume from Standby/hibernate problems.
