Subject: GeForce 2MX400 setup crashes
Date: Sunday, March 03, 2002 4:50 AM

I've just bought a new system and still trying to setup the GeForce 2MX400
64 MB properly. The system consists of an Athlon XP 1700+, m/b Gigabyte
GA-7VTXE, and Crypto 56kPCI internal modem. (and other stuff of course, but
of no importance to the problem)

The problem is that after installing the 23.11 ver. of Nvidia's Drivers,
everytime i try to switch into any resolution bigger than 640x480, or into
more than 16 colours, the system crashes.

First of all it seems to be using the same IRQ with the inernal modem i have
installed. But even when i completely disconnected the modem it was still
crashing.

I tried to install older drivers (v. 21.83) downloaded from the
manufacturer's site (www.sparkle.com.tw) but the problem remained.

I've also tried to experiment with the BIOS settings, or device settings
from Windows setup but nothing happened.

I've heard about a BIOS setting called "Assign IRQ to VGA", but my
motherboard's bios doesn't seem to have such an option.

Please, if anybody has ever had such a problem or know something helpful,
send me response a.s.a.p.
thanx in advance
I forgot to mention the monitor which is a Samsung SyncMaster 753DFX and the
OS which is Windows Me
