Hi! Don't change your video card because it's not that. There are some problems with newer video cards and Abit Softmenu III mainboards made prior July 2000. I have the same problem like you but with a BF-6 and a Leadtek GF2 GTS 32 mb. It apears there is a capacitor on the Abit board (C49) that is a troublemaker. It's been said that if you replace this C49 with a 0.1 uF SMT capacitor everything will work fine. No one has done this though. Try sending a mail to Abit and see what they tell you. My advice is to go for a new mainboard. Asus or MSI sound nice. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/
