Hi to all, I have a dilema with the installation of Windows Xp Pro.
My system is a pentium 4 3.0gig with a GA-8IPE775 board , 1000mb ddr ram, with a ATI 9800 SE AGP 8x256mb video card. I built the system brand new and set it up with a new 120 gig drive freshly formatted. The system ran perfectly until i installed the motherboard drivers and then the screen completely went mad, it had coloured lines and squares and all sorts of jigsaw looking shapes all over it. It was impossible to see. I fitted an old tnt2 video card and it fired up perfectly. I did another fresh install and this time downloaded the drivers from gigabyte themselves but found as soon as i installed the chipset driver i was back to were i was( no screen). I did another fresh install but this time installed the ATI drivers first , it was running fine at this stage and then i installed the chipset driver and then had no monitor again. Not sure what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
