P4P800 and Radeon 9700 pro compatibility???

I'm having some trouble with a P4P800 Deluxe and a Radeon 9700 Pro. Whenever I try to run the 3dmark 2003 benchmanrk, the airplane game starts, and then my computer crashes and i have to reboot. In the P4P800 manual, it says that you shouldnt use the mobo with radeon 9500 or 9700 unless they are above revision PN xxx-xxxxx-30. Mine is revision 11. I'm thinking this may be the problem. I also read somewhere that the P4C800 has the same problems with the Radeon 9500/9700. I'm thinking of just getting a Radeon 9800 Pro, but this would cost me about $100 (after I return the 9700) so I want to make sure that this is indeed the problem. Any ideas?
 
I am having boot problems with the P4P800 Deluxe and Radeon 9700 (non-pro). I get a boot error (audio AGP error).

When I press reset, everything seems to be ok.

I have 380W power supply. What's the deal?
 
I've tried finding a solution to my problem and have come up empty. Please help!!

My P4P800 Deluxe won't cold boot my RADEON 9700. I noticed on ABITs website that they had to upgrade their BIOS to work this card, and until they did they had the same problem I am having. That is that, on COLD BOOT, I get an AGP error on POST, and no video (windows continues loading in the background). When I press reset, the system restarts and the video appears.

This same problem existed on my buddies ABIT motherboard, until he updated his BIOS. Now, everything is fine. I've searched on the Anandtech forums like crazy and haven't had any luck.

Help!
