Hi there, I'm new to this forum so apolagies if I've posted in the wrong place.
I've just bought a Nvidia Geforce4 MX 440 64MB DDR AGP graphics card and slotted it in the AGP slot like all the others before it.
Boot up the machine but just get the BIOS "beep" "Beepbeep" error sound. So the card isn't being detected by the mobo.
So I tried all the usual stuff, putting it in again and making sure there is no loose connection...still no good!!:mad:
So I tried the card in another PC (a pentium 2 Gateway machine)and wallah, it worked fine!!
So back to my PC (an AMD Athlon machine) and the same problem :(
My motherboard is an Abit KT7A-Raid (not version 1.3) and I've updated the BIOS to current, done all the 4in1 VIA drivers and wasted a whole day on this thing!! :cry:
Does anybody know of a compatibility problem with this type of motherboard and this graphics card? Is there a fix that I can try, have I buggered something up?
I'm open to any help, advice or whatever to get this crazy crazy problem sorted :confused:
Many thanks for your help.
