Angry Fire Gf2 mx 400 64mb install prob

Hi:

Im having problems installing an HIS geforce2 mx 400 64mb AGP card. I am running an AMD duron 750 with 320 mb PC133 RAM. The make of my mobo is SiS 730S. I tried many, many times to install my vid card but I get stuck at the same point everytime: I load windows with my new vid card, I can move cursor for a few seconds then everything on the screen gets distorted and freezes, I am thus forced to restart pc and go into bios. I tried to disable my old, onboard vid card (SiS 630/730 integrated 16 meg card) but I cant through bios. It is an old version of bios (bout a year or so) but I am unable to disable my vid card. So I load windows in safe mode, reinstall Nvidia's latest detenator drivers, remove older SiS drivers from my pc and nothing, same result. I then take out my video card, and load windows with my old SiS onboard card. I heard there is a jumper on my board that should disable my vid card but I am unsure as to what exactly to do, or which jumper for that fact. PLZ help, it is greatly appreciated .

Hi WhiteRider,

Welcome to PC Mechanic !!

That sounds like the chipset number, not the actual motherboard make / model number. Find the mobo make / model and go to their site. There should be a owner's manual there to show how to disable the on-board video.

HTH
