hey everyone
I've recently bought a 2nd hand graphics card of a friend, it was working fine on his computer
but when I try putting it in mine I get nothing other than getting a number of bios beeps
generally there are 2 beeps, followed by 8 fast beeps. and after a few more seconds of silence 3 short beeps.
at first I only looked up the 8 beeps and saw that this was related to the new GPU card.
would this mean that I have got a dud card?
i've seen on the box that I need a AGP 2.0 compliant motherboard
however I've got a 3.0 compliant apparently
(Soltek SL-KT400A-C)

this is the site i found that gave me the bios beeps.
(i do have amibios on this system)
help?!!?!?!
