Default Abit KA7-100 + Athlon Classic + Mediamax Radeon 9200SE = no picture


Hi there. Just got myself a cheap Radeon 9200SE to replace my old Geforce
DDR. At first I tried without removing my secondary card (TNT2 M64). The
computer started fine - on the second monitor, it didnt detect the radeon at
all. Then I removed the secondary card and tried. No picture, however it
sounded like the computer booted, beep and floppy seek and all that, but
then it didnt get any further (could be because that i disconnected most
drives, perhaps I disconnected the one with the OS as well). But anyway,
anyone know why this might happend? Perhaps the card started up with DVI as
the default, but hmm, that doesnt make sense, shouldnt have gotten any
picture on the secondary monitor if the first one started. Hmm. Anyone have
any suggestions?

Regards,
Lantz
