Hey guys,
I recently bought a Rampage Formula motherboard and I'm having some issues with my 8800GT. I migrated all my hardware from an Abit IP35-pro where the card worked fine.
When I first install the card, the machine boots to windows in VGA mode. It then installs the driver and prompts me to reboot. When it tries to boot again, it hangs at "starting windows" with the pulsating windows logo frozen. No matter how long I leave it, it will not pass that point. I took out the card and put in an old X800 I had and it installed perfectly with me being able to use aero et al. I'm pretty sure this is an nvidia issue but I'm not sure why it would affect this particular motherboard. Any idea how I can get my card working again? I could easily buy a new ATI card but I really don't want to do that at the moment.
