Was gifted a dell 5100 with a pentium 4 and an x300 video card (PCI express)
formatted and loaded XP fine, boosted the ram to 4 GB (32bit ya, ya ,ya)
I also had a GT 720 (2GB) that I wanted to throw in to compliment the video capabilities.
The machine runs fine with the x300 (128MB) but with the 720 (2GB) just beeps twice at boot and no video signal whatsoever. Can't access the bios or anything. Replace with the x300, all is good again..
What gives? Would a GT 610 run in this thing or whats the best I can do? (305W PS)
Thanks for the help, I know a little, but not much, I do love to tinker though!
