Well, for whatever reason, not being able to read the BIOS will cause a LOT of problems. I assume these error messages don't appear when the card is configured for CRT output? I'd love to look further into this, as we have seen such problems on our AGP boxes, but the best I can do is UP1100, and its BIOS emulator cannot handle any Radeons, AFAICT... :-( > Analog works fine if I add Option "CrtScreen"... I haven't used 4.2.1 or 4.3.0 much at all yet; do they force one to add that option by defaulting to the DVI connector? --Jay++ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jay A Estabrook HPTC - LINUX support Hewlett-Packard Company - MRO1-2/K15 (508) 467-2080 200 Forest Street, Marlboro MA 01752 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
