Ok, so maybe not the best forum, but I have seen hardware related queries, so following the precedent. Hoping someone can help me out.
Hardware: motherboard: Asus ASUS A7266-MX-UAYZ with onboard Video/Lan/Sound and AGP slot. Processor: ATHLON xp 2100+ Video Card: VideoGF FX 5200 256 MB AGP card. Memory: 2 Dimms of 512 MB Each (different companies) but 400 Mhz totaling 1024 MB.
Problem: The AGP Card causes the system to hang when it reaches the memory test stage. If I keep pressing "del", I can get into the bios. If I keep pressing ESC, I can get it to skip the memory test and the system comes up. If I fail to do the above, the keyboard is rendered lifeless and I have to hard boot.
Without the AGP Card it works fine and the memory test takes place and system comes up OK.
Any clues? Is it in the BIOS? Thanks Abhi
