How do I sent my Geforce 3 as main graphichs card?

[squirrelman]

I just put my system back together, and I am using 2 video cards. I have an Elsa Gladic 920 Geforce 3 and a 16mb ATI all in wonder 128 PCI. I am running winxp RC2 right now. It seems to have made my AIW128 the default adaptor I guess because It is the main card right now. How do I go about fixing this? Thanks.

i'm not sure if this applies to your question exactly, but there should be a setting in the bios to specify the initial boot display of agp or pci. make sure it is set to display the agp card first

Yep check your bios..

default is set to pci..

Dunno about XP but you may want to just install one then the other see which it assigns if it assigns you the wrong order try reversing it

Actually XP is supper great because it basically installs everything for you. So far I havent had to install any drivers. It recognized everything.

 

[datallah]

even though it recognises stuff you still want to install the latest drivers for better performance, stability and features.

Oh yeah right I know, I just havent had the time to do that yet. I was only able to put everything together last night. I am going to be leaving for college Saturday morning so its a rush around here. The less I have to do right now the better. So I can just update drivers when I get there.

yeah, in your bios, specify pci or agp.

then the windows one in display properties, "make this monitor my defualt" (win2k, guess should be similar fo xp)

booty agp
