[Fred]

AMD 1800+,Elite k7s5a,ATI radeon 9200,Windows ME,400 watt power supply
60 gig Hard drive 7200 rpm,Sony cd drive verbatuim dvd rw

I have the above system I just put in the radeon video card when I
boot my system I do not get the splash screen that says what the card
is and how much memory it has.With the old card it said what it
identified itself.What is the cause of this?Thanks in advance.Fred

Some do, some dont, does it really make a difference?
I find some cards display this rom information to briefly that some
monitors dont sync up in time to show it.

It's normal with all modern ATI cards. The splash screen is just a waste of
boot up time.

Exactly what my 9200 does. I rarely if ever see the opening info
screens. Things just fly by too quickly.
