Plug and Play doesn't detect Graphics card?!?

[Corky]

I recently rebuilt my XP OS, only to find that in the reinstallation
process XP did not detect my Graphics card. Its an old AGP 4X
NVidia Geforce4 TI-4200.

After discovering this problem, I downloaded the latest NVidia driver
for this board, but it would not install saying it had found no
suitable graphics card.

I then removed and reseated the card, but still no luck. Strangely
enough, the BIOS detects the card every time I reboot. When I go into
system devices, no graphics adaptor is shown, so I can't remove the
driver and roll it back either.

Any/all help appreciated. TIA Please do not reply to my email address.

Thank you! Your suggestion worked!

Try to install the motherboard chipset drivers. These usually will
provide an AGP slot driver which may help in detecting the video card.
