I have severe problems.
I can't for the love of AMD heaven, turn off my Onboard Graphics card.  Because
it's an AGP onboard, my mobo won't recognise any AGP cards I stick into the AGP
slot.  The same goes when I stick in any Sound card into my PCI. However, my old PCI card works wonderfully off it.  I know teh port works, cos my graphic card itself lights up and the fan whirls around and stuff, but the pc won't
recognise it!!!

And get this...There's no option to turn it off in the bios. I am at my wits end.  The manual for it is useless.

So i was thinking i could flash the bios, but I only have accees to win2000, thus seem to be unable to flash teh bios, there's a new one available, becuase i can't make a system boot disk.  The manufacturese website is pants also, because nowhere does it explain what the latest bios version addresses.....

Oh Hurrah.

CAn anyone help me......
