Hey i have a problem i have a AGP Aztec TNT2 M64 graphics card and Win2K Pro(no sevice packs yet), ALi Alladin Pro 2 Chipset, Celly 500, well i cannot for the life of me get the card to initialize i've installed microsoft as well as Nvidia's latest drivers for the card, installed the lastest AGP drivers for the Mobo, i'm about to update the BIOS to a more recent version. Basically the machine has 640x680x16colors or 800x600x16colors modes and nothing else the card is listed under device manager with a yellow exclamation it's seen as the proper card and has no resource conflicts and troubleshooting the card tells me diddly. Now if i try to change the resolution by clicking right mouse button on desktop-properties-settings-advanced-adapter it list "VGA" as my default adapter(which it will not allow me to change) so i try to change it by clicking properties it now say's:
"VGAsave
Device Type: Non-Plug and Play drivers
Manu: Unknown
location: Unknown"
Then it goes on to tell me the device has a problem if you click the resources tab it is having memory conflicts with the "ALi PCI to AGP Controller". This device isn't listed anywhere in the device manager not even in Safemode, i made the mistake of disabling the TNT card and then the PC went into this constant rebooting cycle until i formatted the drive and started from stracth(again). I'm weary on disabling this device to see if this will re-enable my TNT card but i wanted to see what you guys said before i did that. Thanks in advance for all your great help.
