it worked in my old Mo Bo but i just got a KG7 Raid and when i place the card in the Mo Bo it powers up but no monitor ? anyone have any ideas?
so let's get this straight....your network card is stopping your graphics card from working ? or is that not what you meant ?
On first guess, it might be that the NIC has its IRQ physically set on it (either via jumpers, or a config program on the card) - and perhaps the IRQ it's attempting it use is also that which the VGA wants to use, IRQ 5 perhaps... Other than that, re-seat everything in the PC. That's always worth a shot.
i havent got a spare G Card well i got a voodoo 3agp no pci ones will try someone elses network card in my pc on the weekend see how it goes. thanks for the help ! :rofl:
Moose is right, seems to be if ther is a IRQ confligt , try a different slot or if that fails you have to use a boot disk to configure the card in a diff machine(because of the fact you do not have a spare video card) 1 thing that may be worth a shot is to go into your bios and try to 'force' irq -nb all bios may not support that function - try and disable the serial com ports so the card might take that - the last to methods are a long shot but they may work. best bet is to change the cards irq in another machine with the card specific application.
yeah had the same problem with an abit kg7 mobo and a realtek nic, just swapped the nic with a similar 1. Moving the nic card to different slots and the gfx card which was gforce 2 mx pci didn't help. Trying to set the irq's in the bios didn't help either.
ok i had the same prob with a bx xhipset board slot 1 cpu and stuff well i would put my realtek network card in and it would turn on and when i take it out it worked so what i did was flash the bios uno with the jumpers on the mobo left it for a couple of days turned it on reset the bios to default and i disabled the on board usb coz i dont use em on the comp and it works perfect no complaints mabe that would help if not try a 10/100 isa 1
