Biostar 6100-M9 with EVGA 7600GT PCIx Graphics Card
Just finishing putting this system together. Everything installed fine
using the onboard video. Unfortunately when I installed the EVGA 7600FT PCIx based graphics card, the system continues to used the onboard video. In BIOS there is on option to explicitly disable the onboard video. The only options are Auto and Always On. If I understand correctly, when the new graphics card is plugged in, the onboard video should automatically be disabled. Any ideas on what I can try? |

Depends on BIOS. If the BIOS has no disable option go into windows-system-hardware. Select the video hardware. Ensure your new card is there. Ensure the onboard is disabled and the new card is enabled. -- ______ Zack Every operating system out there is about equal. We all suck. (Brian Valentine of Microsoft) |

ALL power connectors are connected to the card?

Biostar 6100-M9 with EVGA 7600GT PCIx Graphics Card
Thanks everyone for the comments. Unfortunately the PCIx card doesn't
show up in the Windowes XP device manager. I have tried disableing the onboard video in device manager. All this does it defaults the the display to VGA and the actual on-board video shows up as a question mark. There is no extra power connector for the EVGA 7600GT so that isn't it either. BioStar Tech support isn't available and EVGA tech support was there but were not able to help. I don't have another PCIx video card to try and troublshoot. Take Care |
