iTunes 7 Coverflow problem

[macdemon]

Hello,

I have iTunes 7 Coverflow problem..

screenshoot

Anyone have any idea, what can i do to make this work:]?

[Ken]

I just installed it in a friend's laptop and it suffers from the same problem.

I visited iTunes Store movies which has the same coverflow effect. Same problem there, too.

In my PC it works well, though.

:-S

[macdemon]

hmmm i reinstalled it 2 times.. still the same

Let me guess... you have an nVidia chip. U need to update the drivers.

i have a similar problem,i see a broken scrollbar,and similarly distorted covers,i dont even see the music note

[Ken]

My friend's laptop (Toshiba) has an nVidia geforce4 420 Go card (16MB), and it's loaded with the drivers upon purchase.

I couldn't locate any compatible drivers for downloading in nVidia's site or elsewhere.

[macdemon]

but i don;t know what to download.. please help me, i'm bad with this thing

nvidia nview 2.0

version 6.13.10.3140

Download the driverfrom this link. The installation procedure is automated, just double-click the .exe. It will most likely require a couple of reboots. If you have any concerns, download the installation guide first. There should be no problems though because the driver seems quite stable.

I still haven't found any compatible drivers.

I tried Windows Update and Microsoft gave me some weird driver that messed up the available resolutions, and I had to roll back the previous driver.

my one says 'itunes is unable to browse album covers on this computer" ... whats that supppose to mean

[Ken]

knotdoll, Coverflow will only work in 32-bit color quality. Below that, it will display this message.

[osxdude]

"iTunes is unable to browse album covers on this computer" message: Either update your drivers or get a new card; you card is incompatible with the iTunes Cover Flow.

Distortion: I have a nVidia on my desktop; Cover Flow works fine.

However, my laptop's ATi Mobillity Radeon 7500 shows the "iTunes is unable..." messsage even though my quality is 32-bit.

@Ken: which Graphic card (chipset/model no.) you are using??

[Ken]

nVidia geforce4 420 Go

It's a Toshiba laptop.

[iGo]

GeForce 4 class... Current nVidia Forceware does not list GeForce 420 Go but it does list GeForce MX 420.

I think it would be rather safe to try nVidia official drivers (latest Forceware 91.47)

[brznttskn]

Perhaps it needs DirectX 9- compatible card?

[Ken]

igo, i already tried this file with no luck.

[zondajag]

thanks ill try update the drivers....what luck....i just came across this thread by accident

edit: errr well i updated my drivers to nvidia drivers ver 91.47 and im still getting this problem

i cant get coverflow to appear in the itunes window...it only appears behind it

i have a nvidia 5200 256mb agp graphics card (i know its old but im lending my ati x800xl to someone) the animation doesnt seem to work at all for me...all i get is an imprint on the desktop....anyone have these problems? (ps no-one rip my theme from this screenshot please...not that youd want to)
