Have you gone into BIOS and changed it to recognize the NVideo card?

I didn't have much in BIOS, especially not that - I'll re-check it later though now that it actually recognises it.

Have you set the PC to VGA mode?

How? If in BIOS then see above.

Perhaps the drivers don't recognize the card because it's not activated?

Just a thought.

Its activated in device manager :P

Ok when you go into the Bios after booting up. Search every tab. And look for somthing that deals with your video card. There has to be somthing. It will more than likley be by the aprtuture size.

And the omega drivers usually work on anything. Dont know why it would do that!

Just looked there is absolutely nothing in there at all.
I was using F2 at startup and it said "BIOS SETUP UTILITY" at the top.

but once you get there you have to use your arrows next to your numberpad to get around in there. Or tab and esc..
