Re: two cards

Question:

Does your motherboard have a brown AGP slot.  

Another question:  Is the ATI Rage 2C a PCI card?  (sorry I am
unfamiliar with this card).

The i810 operates as an agp card even though it is embedded on the
motherboard.  The PCI card won't and that may explain some of the
problem your having as the AGPGART module would be expecting an AGP card
not the PCI.

I admit that this may not help, but it may give more knowledgable people
on the list a better idea of what's going on.

Thanks

Steve
