The only thing that I can think of on that one is that maybe your power supply can't handle the extra needed power of the Geforce2 MX. What is the power supply rated at?
The other thing you can do is go to www.geforcefaq.com, it has all kinds of info on what Geforce cards require for power and also troubleshooting problems with them.

I have ran virtually every consumer graphics card made within the last 2 years on my CUSL2, without problems (except for a driver problem on an SiS card). So chances are that your doing something wrong, and it could be the power supply, or maybe your not pushing it in far enough.

Perhaps one of your bios settings is goofed? To be safe, update to the latest bios, clear the cmos (or just pull out the mobo battery) and see if that helps. If that doesn't work, strip down your system to its bare minimum and see if it makes any difference. If it does, just reinstall everything piece by piece until you find the problem. Also, if you have generic memory, try switching it out with someone elses. The 815 chipsets can be kind of finicky with memory modules. Actually, now that i think of it, all chipsets can be kinda finicky with memory modules 440bx i miss you
