I have an old 9600 XT AIW I am trying to install in my GF's daughter's box and its being difficult. I reset BIOS to use AGP (as opposed to onboard) and then installed it. Computer seems to boot fine but without anyvideo (I can hear it booting up and eventually Windows Chime). BUt no matter what i set in BIOS, I get ZERO video output.

Yes I am using VGA 1 on the funny pigtail thingie (but I tried VGA 2 as well). Yes, I have reseated it a couple of times in the AGP slot.

Any other ideas? Unfortunately, I have upgraded my main box, my linux w/s and my GF's box to PCI-Express mobo's, so I don't have another PC to try it in.

Did you check to see if the card works in another computer? Did you actually set the computer to use AGP (like an explicit setting in the BIOS) or did you just reset the BIOS in general (to set it in AGP mode)?
