PCI IRQ Routing Table Error on POST causes loads of video problems.

Does anyone know what that means? I just bought a new motherboard &
amd64 athlon; The mobo does not have onboard video, but I have this PCI
ATI Rage Card. I have 5 PCI slots, & an AGP slot.

After POST, I get a 'PCI IRQ routing table error [0:05:00]". My mobo is
MSI K8T Neo-V (MS-7032) w/latest BIOS (which is AMI) off the MSI site
(version 5.0). My video card is the only device using an expansion
slots.

Problem 1: IRQ Routing table error [0:05:00]

Problem 2: Load defaults always gives the 8-beep error (from
http://www.ami.com/support/doc/AMIBIOS-codes.pdf: 8 beeps=display
memory error, also, "If the system video adapter is an add-in card,
replace or reseat the
video adapter. If the video adapter is an integrated part of the system
board, the board may be faulty.")

Problem 3a: On setup of Win2k, BSODs saying that the BIOS is not fully
ACPI compliant & tells me to install disabling HAL/ACPI (by pressing
F7)
Problem 3b: Disabling HAL/ACPI installs, but the end result is video @
640x480 x 16 colors, and unable to install drivers; Error in device
manager says the BIOS did not supply enough info to properly configure
the device

Problem 4: Windows XP installs perfectly, however, video is super
crappy. I'm not a gamer so take that into consideration cause "crappy"
to a gamer might be normal to me. So when I say something's crappy,
it's absolutely horrid. For example, scrolling a simple window like
notepad visually repaints the window like I was downloading a picture &
displaying as it comes using a dialup connection....this process also
runs the CPU up to 70-90% and takes about 2 seconds.

I've tried different memory, uninstalled all hardware except memory,
CPU, and video card & still have the same result.

ANY help or at least pointers?

It is further alleged that on or about 27 Mar 2006 22:52:17 -0800, in
alt.comp.hardware.pc-homebuilt, the queezy keyboard of "jonfaquit"
spewed the following:

Interesting, I believe all your problems would be solved by simply
installing an AGP card.

have you tried a different graphics card?
did you bother to install the chipset drivers before trying to install the
graphics?

Speak the truth and leave shortly there after

Haha...I just ordered an AGP card (geforce 420...for about $15). Gonna
see if I get the same result(s).

Haven't tried any other graphics cards cause this is the only one I
have...I've always stuck with onboard video whenever purchasing a
motherboard cause onboard suits my needs perfectly. I only had this
card because it has an RCA connection so that I can connect my TV to it
& use it as another monitor.

I can't install anything without the graphics though...cause I can't
see anything (and I think BIOS gives the beeping errors too if it
doesn't find a suitable PCI/AGP card).

Oh yeah, you know what else is funny? MSI, the brand of motherboard
that I have, technical support said the same thing...use an AGP card
and retest...

Some lspci -vvv linux info if it helps: Question, why does it say AGP
when this is a PCI card?

BIOS contains no such entry....thanks to MSI

clear the CMOS and then load 'default' settings

I've had to have cleared the CMOS about 30 times so far

'Load defaults' even gives me the 8 error beeps...

I just tried throwing this video card in my old 32bit system and as I
thought, no problem whatsoever, so it can't be the card.
