No DVI output from 6600GT

I recently got a Leadtek 6600GT AGP card for my Dell Dimension 4550
(2.6GHz, 1GB, 4x AGP) with a Dell 2001FP LCD display. Although the
analog output works fine, I've never gotten anything but a blank
screen from the DVI output, including the DVI to VGA adapter.

From the start I was concerned about the power requirements of the
6600GT, so I tried replacing the stock PSU with an Antec Silent 430 -
no improvement. The BIOS, chipset drivers, everything else I can think
of is up to date, but still DVI is not working.

At this point I'm ready to return the Leadtek board, but I wonder if
anyone else has found a way around this problem?
