Hi
Built a pc from old bits, all seemed to ok, well apart from getting to see
the floppy.....

Anyway suddenly the gfx carf doesnt send signal to monitor, i used a pci
card for simplicty while setting up, is there a simple reason why this would
happen for me to explore? It would do it in post.

thanks.

Firstly, why did you use a PCI card for simplicity whilst setting up?
It makes things far from simple as you've just found out. There is
absolutely no reason to use another card than the one you're intending
to have in.

Firstly, open up the PC and make sure te card is seated properly.
Secondly go into BIOS settings and set the Primary adapter from PCI to
AGP.

I hadnt decided which AGP card i would have used, or then found the drivers
off the web
