Hey there to everyone, been a lurker of these forms for over a year now and they have helped me greatly with my retro builds, however i'm running into an issue I have no direction on.
I recently purchased a m748lmrt https://www.amazon.com/PCCHIPS-M748LMRT-SOCKE … D/dp/B00PVI1M8U
I hear its not the best motherboard out there but I wanted the ability to use slot 1 and socket 370 cpu's because I got a bunch in a bulk buy I want to test
I don't have a VGA extention card that I can use for video (direction on where I can find these could be helpful, can't find them anywhere) so I'm using a Pci Graphics card naturally.
However there's no display, I've tried the obvious things like clear cmos and different vga cables and displays, different ram, different cpu's
All the cpu's get warm along with the Pci video card so I know they are getting power. The only other thing I can think of is that its a setting in the bios I need to change
for it to look to the pci first for video maybe, but I need a Vga extention card to do that which i'm having trouble finding, but I would think the default would allow pci graphics cards, but maybe I'm wrong. Anyone ever run into this? or have another possible solution I could try? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
