Just baught a Radeon 7500 From my friend. Its a Powercolor one. Evilmaster I think.

But anyways, I uninstalled the previous V3 3k, and I installed the Radeon. To found out when I got into windows, it says ''Could not install device driver''. I looked in the display properties, and it said something like ''default monitor on ''. There was nothing there. I clicked properties, and a VGAsave thing was there. It says its confliction with ''VIA PCI to AGP'' when I click on resources. And it showed the three IRQ's where it was confliction.

I updated bios, And motherboard drivers, and ofcoarse video card drivers (tried different versions), but no cigar. My friend was havin the same problem lately with it. I plugged the card into my dads comptuer which was usin the MAGIK 266 chipset, and same thing happened. I quickly removed it from there and put the old radeon back in, and system restored it.

I was screwin around some more, and just before windows starts to load, it shows the devices. My Display was on 10, so was these two serial ports. I went into bios and disabled the serial ports, so just the Display was on 10, but still, no cigar. I am usin the MSI Board...its the 133 KT something, doesnt matter though.

So its definly not the drivers, not the motherboard drivers, but some how this powercolor is confliction with my system, how do I fix this? Please help!

 
with ati you must uninstall the original drivers reboot then

set it back to a "standard video adapter" reboot then load drivers


you don't say if the old card was pci or agp

if it was pci you need to enter the bios and set it to vga reboot then do the above mentioned

hope this helps
