New Re: Nightowl - Does the card need addl. resources?
Hmmm How do I check to see if it has an onboard AGP device? If you mean does it have an AGP port, yes it does.

New Re: Nightowl - Does the card need addl. resources?
The mobo possibly has a builtin display controller - you can check in the BIOS. If so, you have to disable that, so the ATI card can use the I/O ports and memory addresses. It's even possible (with ATI hardware) that an onboard PCI display adapter could interfere with it. In any case, disable any onboard display adapters in BIOS.

Also, set all the PCI steering IRQs to 11 or something like that - try 11 and 9.

New Also some bio's allocate some memory to video buffers
so see if any kind of video shadowing is turn on. Anything that sez video set to off in the bios.
