hi all in PH land, need some help / advice on installing a graphics card to my kids PC.
Have an Nvidia 32mb PCI card (no AGP slot in motherboard) which I want to install. have downloaded the drivers that relate to the system (win98) I fitted the card to the motherboard, powerd up pc & installed drivers. all seemed well & good, but I get some audable beeps from the graphics card when I power up. One long & 3 short beeps. The card is seated in the pci slot fully
& all seems to be OK, but it won't power up correctly.
Have taken the card out now & reverted to the on board graphics.
Any advice much appreciated. before any one asks No my son cannot afford to upgrade to a newer m/c. I had thought of but there would only be tears.
