I just installed a new ATI All In Wonder 9600 video card in my system and now it won't boot up. If I put the old nVidia card in, it works. Been fighting this for a couple of days without a lot of help from ATI.
specs:
ATI All In Wonder 9600 128MB 8x AGP
IWILL kk266plus motherboard w/ universal AGP slot (2x/4x)
VIA kt133a chipset
Athlon 1.2 GHz processor
512MB of RAM
Windows 2000 SP4
Old card was an nVidia GeForce2 MX-400 64MB 4x AGP
I have installed the latest drivers for VIA and IWILL, and I have upgraded my BIOS. Before installing the new card, I started in VGA mode and uninstalled nVidia drivers. Put the new card in and powered up. As soon as the system tries to access the new video card, the system beeps and then hangs before beginning POST. No signal to monitor, so I can't tell if there is any sort of error. Removed ATI card, put in old nVidia and the system started right up (and asked to install the nVidia drivers).
I set BIOS/CMOS settings according to ATI docs.
Any insight would be welcome.
