creative geforce gts lost screen on reboots

[benjamat]

I have a new cl gf-gts and couldn't wait to get it in my system. What a disappointment on two counts. firstly with q3 and everything at maximum I just get 59 fps. secondly and much more importantly I lose video completely every time i turn the system off. When I restart I get one long bee followed by two short and a blank screen. The system carries on booting in the background.
I have tried every combination of pci card insertions and nothing changes.
Abit Bf6
maxtor 20.4 gig
iwill scsi
Sb Live
generic 40x cdrom
samsung 710s 17" monitor
Windows 98
128mb pc133
celeron 533 @ 600

As soon as i put my old V3 3000 back in I get no problems.
These issues are all to do with the bios recognition.
Abit bios rev RV.

My guess is that the problem is with mt iwill scsi adapter or the dreaded sblive but I can't prove it

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Take the card back. If I remember my error beep codes right, 1 long and 2 short means video card prob.

hey benjamat, did you buy a CLA 2 GeForce 2 GTS for $225? I have the same problem as you. What did you do? Did you get a refund or an exchange?

I have a Hercules GTS 64 meg that does the same thing. If I get no video on start up I just hit the reset button and its all set. Sounds to me like the M/B is having trouble starting up the card. Just a guess

I have finally got my gf2 to work perfectly but only by removing my cdr and the iwill scsi adapter that goes with it.
I'm happy with the gf2 but really cheesed off that I cannot run with my cdr.
before I did this I tried every possible combination of slots and bios clears.
