pc not finding agp slot

[Dieo]

i currently have re-formated my pc and now it is no longer finding my ati radeon 9600se video card which i have in the agp slot. it will not even say found new hardware when i pull it out and put it back in. is there anyway i can fix this?

quick question


did you install the drivers that came with the video card lol

If it displays video, its working. You must install the drivers for it to work fully.

it came pre installed cause i had it built and assemblemed at the shop. i have windows xp and usually when i install hardware it atleast says "found new hardware" but nothing w/ this.

It will only initiate "Found new hardware" when there aren't any drivers installed yet. Your vid card already had a driver, and was using the VGA generic driver that Windows provide for basic function. You have to installed the correct driver for it so you don't experience any sluggish movement. Go to ATI web site.
