OK some specs..
A8n32 deluxe w/ a 170opty.... 2megs ram  650 watt PSU..
The thing runs like a rock SOLID...
SO I decide it's time to upgrade from my OLD 6600gt 256....
I plop down $200 for the ATI card... nuthin?... not even a dos screen?
Yes I checked for a power plug... yes I upgraded my bios
yes I exchanged it as I thought I had a bad one.....
SO for now I am back to the 6600...
Any Ideas guys?
many thanks
Gatr

Do both your video cards go in the same slot or are they different?

I want to say theres a setting or a jumper somewhere that isnt set right

Well this is a SLI MB but in single card mode you can use either one and I tried both...  I has to READ the MB manuel... how painful... Real men NEVER read instructions

You may want to call a translator up. Every manual I read for motherboards had the english so poorly butchered during translation that it makes it hard to read
