I've built a new computer that I will mainly use as a fileserver and
don't need any fast graphics.

When I insert my Diamond Stealth S3 968 with 2Mb VRAM (from 1995!) in
a PCI slot and turn the computer on, the display remains in stand-by
mode. The card works in my older computer. When I try with a 2 year
old AGP card everything works fine. Are there any changes I have to do
in bios to make the PCI-card work? Or is the PCI-bus on my new
motherboard not compatible with the old graphics card? My PCI
networkcard works fine with the new motherboard...

My hardware:
Asus P4B533
Celeron 2,0GHz
256 Mb DDR PC2100

By the way: When I boot the computer I get a message:
<BIOS:> BIOS update data incorrect. CPUID=00000F29. Anyone knows what
this means? I've loaded setup defaults, but the message is still
there...

Thanks
Fredrik

Yes, I've tried two different PCI slots, and no AGP card at the same
time.
PNP OS installed is NO.
Where can I find the "Reset configuration data?

Thank you for your time!

Your bios may not have this option...
usually right with the PNP os setting....maybe different wordage?

PNP OS installed is NO

If it has been 'no' all along, try changing it to yes and give it a try.

also try loading 'defaults' for the bios/cmos.....or maybe even reset (short the jumper)

Hmm...still no luck. I'm going to borrow another PCI card tomorrow to
see if it's just the one I've got that doesn't work with this
motherboard.

you dont have a Win modem installed? 'Set IRQ for video' or something siimilar in bios? Video bios shadowing? change the
settings from what they are now to opposite(where applicable).
