Intel SE440-BX2 + GeForce MX 200

[Mauri82]

Hi, I have an old motherboard, an intel SE440BX2, and it doesn't seem to recognize my geforce MX 200.
When I turn on the PC, I get the bios beep codes indicationg there is no video card.
If I put the MX200 and another PCI vga card, and tell the bios too boot using the PCI card, then both card work perfectly allowing me to use dual monitors.
The fact is I don't want to use two video cards, just the AGP.
I've tested the MX200 in other PC's, and it work fine.
Any suggestion?

Thanks

Well, it's not an AGP compatibility issue since the card support both AGP 1.0 and 2.0 slots. It sounds like a BIOS problem, but I've never seen that on the SE440BX-2. Did you try going into BIOS with both cards installed (using the PCI card to see it) then changing it to make it boot AGP first, then changing the monitor to the other card and rebooting?

I think I've tried all the options, the motherboard cant boot if I set the AGP as primary card.

That card supports dual monitors, right? And you were using the primary monitor output, correct?

No, it's a single monitor card, I had dual monitor using both cards, the PCI and the AGP

I'd like to thank you for your response, I've solved the problem flashing the MX200 with the lastest firmware I found.
