I have had trouble with both the 6200 and 7600 cards on my ASRock board.
The most recent attempt is with a 7600GS 256mb from inno 3D.
Although the card is recognised by DOS in the first boot up, and the OS, when I come to install driver, 91.47 on CD, it firstly does not recognise card and then goes into a re-boot loop finally coming to a complete stop with blank screen.
Messages in the Adaptor information file; all read unavailable. (Chip Type, DAC type, Memory size etc
I have installed all bios update relevant to video card problems, now upto v2.0 from the ASRock site.
Any suggestions welcomed. My previouse card, FX5200 128mb works fine.
All protocols followed to uninstall drivers and install NEW version for card.
Strangley enough the 7600 was installed on to my sons computer and all went well. It works. Suprise, suprise. And this is using only 512 mb RAM and an Athlon XP 1.6MHz. All on a Jetway board.
Conclusion! It must be the ASRock board.
Hair loss now severe. Suggestions please...
regards and happy New year to all.
