AGP Card Help needed

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.comp.hardware.pc-homebuilt (More info?)

Hi,

I have been attempting to get a new AGP card to work in my new mother board.

Board -ASUS A7S8X-MX
CArd - Legend FX5200

Now according to the motherboard book it supports 1.5V AGP8 cards.

This card has AGP8 on it. Can't get the thing to work. Doesn't seem to be
detected.....I have tried changing the BIOS to ensure the AGP gets looked at
first but it get no response!

Any tips

Which video socket are you using, onboard or New card? Have you tried
diabling onboard display and connecting monitor to new card?

Are you getting 'no video' error beeps, one long and two short beeps? If so
the card may not be fully seated, even though it may seem so.
