Graphics Card Issue

by michaeljjt . Updated 18 years, 1 month ago

Running a slightly older desktop: Asus P4P Motherboard, P4 Intel 2.4 chip, 1 GB Ram

Was running a Radeon 9800 Pro graphics card successfully for about 3 years, until it burnt out.

Upgraded to a Powercolor/ATI 3650 (AGP) card, but when I installed it, its causing my system to hang at startup, or sometimes not even “beep” and get to the BIOS/POST. Occasionally it gets to the Windows (XP) logo/loading, and then hangs and reboots.

If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated….Is it possible the card is a bad card? Is it incompatible with the MB? Is there a problem with the MB and not the card? Do I need to check any BIOS settings?

Thank you
