first, the specs of the system
biostar m7vit pro
amd athlon xp1600+
sb live! oem
creative modem blaster 56k
lite on dvd
sony cdrw
wd 40gb hd
GF2 (working)
radeon 9100 (resource problem)
ok, the system works perfectly with the gf2 installed. when the radeon was put in, windows detected it, installed the drivers, but its getting a resource problem.
the resources check out, except:
I/O range C000 - C0FF
i couldnt get any info on the gf2 resources, its my brothers box and he was at work, and i couldnt find the card when i was there; should i get him to put it in and check THOSE resources too?
anyway, the VIA agp 2.0 to 3.0 controller has the following I/O ranges
C000 - CFFFF
03B0 - 03BB
03C0 - 03DF
is the agp controller using what the card needs? or does that just specify the ranges available to the installed agp card?
windows has the "use automatic settings" checked and greyed out so i cant uncheck it to manually adjust the settings for the radeon
what can i do? what can i try? hes ready to reinstall windows at the drop of a hat, but id prefer to fix the problem, as opposed to start from scratch and potentially have it again
thanks
