MSI K7N420 pro and ASUS V8200 don't go together?

Hello,

I recently bought a new PC with the MSI K7N420 pro M/B and ASUS V8200 G.Card.
After I installed all the components I connected the V8200 to the M/B and pushed the Power button.
Nothing works. It doesn't even do the POST. The indicator LED's on the M/B say there is a problem with the VGA.
I tried the V8200 on another PC and it worked just fine. I also tried to connect an older ELSA GeForce2 card to the MSI M/B and it
also worked fine. The built in MX G.Card worked fine as well.

Does anyone have an idea what's the problem ?

I update the G.card and M/B BIOS's to the latest revisions.

Thanks,

Roy
 
I cant remember and maybe someone else can clarify this but there was a sticker on the agp slot that did say something about incompadability with 1.5 something!

Edit It only says that more than a 1.5 V AGP card will damage the board !
 
First off, nForce like 845 and 850 only supports 1.5v AGP cards. But, your card is a GeForce3 and all GF3's (and GF2's for that matter) are a 1.5v card so I don't think that's the problem. It sounds like u've tried all the usual things, and I'm not sure what to say.
 
hay,
the problem Roy dscribed was my problem.
I really don't know what to do - the V8200 didn't work on my MSI K7N420 PRO & on my friends A7N266-E (both with the latest bios). the card worked fine on my old P3V4X board. I think I updated the ASUS V8200 bios (I am not sure).

I need more ideas...
