I've bought a new Gigabyte R9000 video card. Installed it into my old computer - doesn't work (no picture, if I boot with second (PCI) video card Sandra says AGP unpopulated though the Radeon is in). Tested it on a friend's computer with a i865 board - it's ok. My computer is currently set to the most conservative settings in BIOS (AGP x2, no fast writes etc.) and not overclocked. It's been rock stable for close to four years now (I can't believe it's that old!) so it's definitely the new video card. I know the early VIA board had AGP problems but I thought if it managed my old power hungry GeForce DDR (RIP) it will surely have no problems with a passively cooled R9000...
So, has anyone had similar problems? What do you recommend I try?
