it seemed to start when i got the video card... I bought the card new... ANY IDEAS?

 

[wwwben]

can i flash the video card? well i know i can.. but should I?

some motherboards have a settings which decides which where it will look for a video card first. Try setting it to PCI-e.

NICE .. never thought of that i'll be checking that in a bit .. I WILL repost with results!

In the BIOS there was a setting for that .. it wanted me to choose between PEG/PCI OR PCI/PEG .. what is PEG is that the one i want>?

 

[marco324]

PEG is the one you want pcie graphics

 

[PsyKhiqZero]

Pci Express Graphics. You want it to check PEG first or PEG/PCI
