So it was not seated into the AGP slot all the way ?!? :laugh:

Good for you 1nf. Sure beats having to RMA it.
And thanks for the thread and how you fixed it. It helps keep us on our toes when troubleshooting. :toast:

The old Radeon 9000 told me when I tried to boot. Must have been ahead of it's time. lol

My 9800 Pro would halt the mobo post and display onscreen that the power connector wasn't plugged in.

I don't think the guy will able to understand "POST", lol.

It's better to act like you know nothing and say something like "I plugged this one in, and it didn't display anything, but it worked when I switched back to my old card."

+1 ;)

try to clean the golden points of the card with the eraser and make sure there is no dust inside the agp slot or carbon accumulation inside that u may want to try it with another psu if u have in spare or u can borrow from ur personal dealer or get the whole thing checked in a nearby computer store where they have lots of spares to pinpoint the problem and if all dosent help do inform ur dealer and get ready to rma the whole thing because u didnt pay money for a stupid piece of plastic and metal that didnt work did u ?..... if u bought it from local dealer tell him if he can assist u to rma it pray that the replacement card comes fast enough and works properly i hope this helps.
