Ok I'm having a really weird problem. I just bought a PNY 6800 GS agp (VCG6800SAWB) card and installed it. I had previously uninstalled all the nforce drivers and what not from my old card.
So when it booted up everything seemed to come up fine but oddly window's didn't pop up it's new hardware detected box. I thought that was odd but I proceeded to try and run the forceware drivers. They told me the hardware I had wasn't compatible. So annoyed I thought maybe I needed the manufacturers drivers specifically and I tried them out but I got the same problem!
I went and looked in device manager to find the card and low and behold windows doesn't even seem to know the card is even there. I went in through the display properties->adapter and it's listed as something called VgaSave.
So I tried add new hardware->pick manual->add device->display adapter to maybe try the windows default drivers and the only drivers it offered me were Ati drivers! I tried have disk and that didn't work either.
I've never seen anything like this before. Windows clearly is using the card as Im reading the web with it right now but it won't accept any drivers for it or even show it in device manager. I'd call tech support but it's too late and I'd like to get this working sometime tonight. Could use some help!
