Please help if you can...

This time its on a completely different computer.

Main video card is a Geforce 4 MX (AGP), motherboard is an ASUS A7V8X... 2nd vid card is a PCI TNT2 Vanta, brand new...

Basically, the PCI card won't work at all in my computer... if i turn it on with the PCI card in, nothing comes on screen, keyboard LED's don't flash etc. Thats even with my AGP card taken out so only the PCI card is in. I just got the latest BIOS flash for my MB but no success

I know the pci card works - I just tried it in a different computer

Any ideas? thanks

have you tried different PCI slots?

or checked the bios to see if there is a Disable PCI video setting?

Have you tried tha card in a PC that you know it works in, since you tried it in this one?

Yes i tried every single bios setting that is related to video.

Hve also tried every pci slot

I just tried it in dad's computer, which is exactly the same motherboard as mine, and it works!! FFS!

And it didn't work, before or after I updated the bios

This might sound silly, but are you sure the PCI card is seated in the slot all the way on the one that doesn't work? Verified the BIOS settings in the one that doesn't work and the one that does are the same?

Of course but thanks anyway for the suggestion.

I just took it to the guys i bought it off, and they were baffled! but they're looking at it now

Try to put another card to that PCI slot. If that still don't work. Something wrong with the PCI slot that connect to the MB. It more like bad circuit...

Good Luck
