Big Problem|FIC AZ-11 and Asus V7100| Help

[Guest]

Hi, i'm having some big problem trying to run my Asus V7100 32M Pure, on my FIC- AZ11 Mobo.

My system specs're:

- AMD Duron 800 (no Overclock) 8.0 x 100
- Mobo FIC- AZ11
- 128 mb Ram PC-100
- ATI RAGE 2mb (mach64) Pci / Now a Asus GF2 ...

Well, i think that's all what really matters, so, before the Asus Card (Gf2 mx) i have a ATI card, which always worked correctly, but when i've installed the new video card, the problems started, sometimes my windows dont even start (only with Asus card), i've switched back to the ATI, and always was perfect, coming back to Asus, windows ME doenst recognize the video drivers, doenst matter if, Nvidia or Asus drivers, well, my friend have a Celeron@500, 128 Ram PC-100 on a Asus P2-99, and in this machine, the Asus board worked well, all correct, so, i'm thinking about some litle problem btw, my mobo and the Asus v7100, maybe all Gf2 or even all Nvidia Cards ... , a conflict even a bios problem, something what i cant imagine, on the bios i've found this AGP options relationed:

- AGP aperture size
- Video Ram cacheable: enable or disable
- AGP 4x Mode
- AGP driving control: Auto or choice one
- AGP fast write: enable or disable
- AGP Master 1 WS Write: enable or disable
- AGP Master 1 WS Read: enable or disable

Can you tellme whats the recommended configuration on this items ? Maybe, i havent tried all possible conbinations, i've already formated my Hd a lot of times, tried, Win 98, Win 98 SE and finally Win ME, nothing seems to work, another possibility, a bad AGP slot, no way, i've runned a Savage4 8mb on it, it worked correctly, i've followed all drivers instructions perfectly, i just dont know what to do! Do you know some issues involving these cards, or maybe it's a problem with the chipset GF2 ?
ah, i've installed too, the 4in1 to my mobo from Via.


Thank you very much for your attention

I hope you can help me

Thx again

Hopefully this will help. First off you need to remove ALL your old video drivers. Right click on a blank windows screen and select preferences, appearance, advanced, adapter and select change. reset it to standard VGA. The system will complain about it not being the right drivers, just ignore it's protesting. Shut down and install the new card. In your BIOS, try this, AGP aperture set to 1/2 your total memory, Video RAM cachable: Disable. AGP 4X: set to 2x for now. AGP Driving Control: auto. AGP fast read and writes: disable both.
Your system should come up with a 640x480 VGA display. Go back into the adapter tab, select change, and select have disk. Follow the prompts. Start with the drivers that are on the CD that came with the new board.
Hope that this was of some help
