Hello, I have a 9500 gt that I cannot seem to find in device manager.. The Nvidia driver package couldn't find compatable hardware and GPU-z couldn't give me any information about it. I am currently using the card with no drivers, but I can't use directx acceleration meaning I can't play any of my games.

I have tried this with 2 cards, same issue both times. I don't see any burns or missing parts or anything on either card or the mobo,

In the device manager, one of the PCI to PCI bridges has an error saying it does not have enough resources to start. I've been trying to get my graphics card to work for a few days now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried uninstalling the pci with no luck, it restarted and found the correct drivers but still shows up with Error 12: Not enough resources to start. I'm not 100% sure how to update the bios either. I no longer have the install disc that came with this mobo, as the entire computer was a christmas gift.

It does not show an unidentified hardware under the PCI, but I do have 2 items that are unknown devices.

You wouldn't need the disk that came with it. You will need to download the new bios from their website. The company that made your bios may have a program available to update it from windows or you can use a flash drive.

It shouldn't have anything to do with the bios though, This exact same setup ran fine last time, it just seems to not like me since I reinstalled windows. I still haven't found a working solution to my prolem.

Ok, didn't know it had already been working before and you had reinstalled windows, then it isn't the bios.

What about the motherboard's drivers? Did you just let windows install drivers for the motherboard? Usually it's preferred to install the drivers off your motherboard's manufacturers website instead of the generic ones windows picks. It'll be under "support" and then "drivers". The ones you're looking for say "chipset". It's not a bad idea to install their specific drivers for other things, but the chipset drivers should fix the problem.

I did just let windows install the chipset drivers. I can't seem to find an update that works with windows 7 though. My motherboard is an M3A32-MVP Deluxe. The last OS supported is Vista x64., according to ASUS's website.

You can try uninstalling the bridges, restarting, and letting it try to reinstall software to run them, but I still suggest updating the bios to the newest one. The bios is what assigns the resources and since it's free and easy to try, I would.
