[RESOLVED] Monitor Resolution prob Voodoo 2/Win 98

I have a HP 6470Z with a ATI Rage pro turbo video card, Micron 700FGX monitor, Win 98 and Creative Labs Voodoo 2 (8 Meg) 3D card. I can't keep my monitor above 800x600 resolution with this config. When I take out the Creative Labs Voodoo 2, I can set my resolution to 1280x1024. With the Voodoo card back in, after I install my monitor I can set resolution to 1280x1024. However the next time I reboot, the Windows 98 says my "setting are incompatible with my display adaptor or hardware", and forces me to change resolution back to 800x600).

HELP!

Windows thinks your Voodoo2 card is your primary display (Voodoo2 is hardware limited to 800x600 without SLI). Get the most recent 3dfx drivers for your card and try again. If not there is not much you can do because that would mean a conflict with your two cards. Your Voodoo2 is only supposed to take over when it detects a DOS-Mode program running full-screen.

Pull the other card and the voodoo card should function correclty.

I have the all the latest drivers installed, nothing helps. Also I can't remove my ATI Rage pro 2D/3D card, because it is sodered to the motherboard, and it is my 2D card. Is there an update to Win 98 that might help? I couldn't find it at the Microsoft site. The Voodoo 2 card is functioning fine, however my windows display can't be moved above 800x600 unless I pull the voodoo card, or I can do it for just the current session (until reboot) by removing and reinstalling the monitor from device manager.

If the ATI card is an onboard device is there a CMOS setting which will allow it to be disabled?

I can't disable it, The voodoo card only does 3D. Without the Rage Pro, windows 98 wont come up. You need some primary display adaptor!

try this help, had a similar setup, rage pro turbo agp2x and creative v2 12mb, had to uncheck 'detect plug and play monitor' in display settings.
tada!

Does this m/b have an agp slot? Everytime I put PCI video cards into boards with AGP slots windows will get very confused about capabilities of that card. I am presuming the integrated video is acting as PCI.
