Hello and hangin'

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum, but it looks like you've got a nice place here .

Anyhow, I recently installed an ATI Radeon 9200 4x AGP video card in my PC. Everything works great with card - graphics are beautiful. I am having one problem though. When I restart, or even power down my computer upon startup, the video seems to be hanging.

The only fix so far (and not a very good one) is to press my restart button on the front panel of my tower - 4 times. I think I've press it more at times, but for now 4 times seems to be the magic number.

Then I will hear the little click and the beep that indicate to me that the PC is starting properly, and sure enough it does. Maybe it's a simple fix I'm overlooking.

Any ideas what might cause this?

Thanks, Randy

 

the ATI Radeon drivers reached v4.9 today..
www.ati.com to get the latest drivers.

Try them and report back.

 

Got the new version. Installed. Seemed to fix about 80% of problem, but still hanging the other 20%.

First time using the agp port. I wonder if it could be a bad slot?

Peace, Randy
