Hi all,
I'm stumped by this one.
I have just built the following system:
Abit NF7-S
Athlon XP 3200+
2*512 Crucial 512MB DDR400
Maxtor Diamondmax 9 120GB HDD
Geforce4 Ti4200 64MB
I have successfully installed Windows 98 SE and all Abit mobo drivers etc.
from Abit CD that came with mobo.
The problem I have is that, when I install the correct drivers for the
graphics card and restart windows, I end up with a black screen with a
flashing cursor in the top left hand corner.
It is only when I restart in safe mode and remove the Geforce4 drivers that
I am able to do a successful boot back into windows (16 colours, low res).
I tried another graphics card (Geforce2) that I have that works fine in
another system (Abit KT7) and I get exactly the same problem when the
correct drivers are picked up by Win98 SE.
Can anyone set me on the correct path to try and diagnose this further?
Tearing my hair out,
Paul.
