A HARD NUT TO CRACK

[trinanjan]

Dear all,
Read my thread at http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?t=33799018

And tell me what you make of it! The more is the number of people, who come to know of this, the better will it be!

I agree with the posters in that thread, sounds like a chipset and/or motherboard issue in regards to the AGP port and power supplied to the AGP port. Unfortunetly it doesn't seem like you have many options without a hardware upgrade. You could try the various BIOS versions for that motherboard, maybe you'll luck out and find one that works with the video card, but I think the chances of that are rather slim.

I setup a PC for one of my friends with an Athlon XP 2100+, Asus A7V333 and gigabyte 9600XT, works fine no issues with incompatibilities at all.
the PSU was an ANTEC truepower 380watt
