Enabling the AGP causes 'Black Screen' when starting any 3D graphi

[Guest]

I would be grateful if any one can help with this.
I have a MS 6330 motherboard (Gateway OEM) and cannot seem to get to use my
AGP port with my graphics card. All I end up with is a black screen where the
graphics card just seems to shut down. The only answer I have seems to be to
disable AGP in DxDiag.

That would be a good question to ask Gateway Tech Support.

Thanks Bob,

If I thought that they would have any idea I might have asked them. Have you
ever searched their site for something? If you had .......
I can't even get a reference two the motherboard on MSI's site and they made
the thing. I thought that maybe knowledgable folks might inhabit this forum.

Alan

PS just to be sure I might ask Gateway.
