><[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Regarding your blackscreen, Have you tried a different monitor? What is your video adapter situation? Is it possible you are using one that has failed? Also, have you tried putting the card in a different slot? Are you sure the card is seated propertly in the slot? One last thing; since I upgraded my PTP225 with a Sonnet G4/450 (which I love-major speed improvement over the original 225 card) my (two) monitors won't start-up from a cold system start for about 5 minutes, or unless I reboot a second time.
