I recently pulled my old Voodoo 2 card out (CT6670 8MB) and tried to get it to work on my Pentium Pro system.
Unfortunately, I get the POST error codes for a video failure and not surprisingly no video output.
If I boot with the Voodoo 2 Card plus a 16-bit ISA card, I get video and at startup it detects a multimedia card on the PCI bus...so at least part of the card appears to be working.
The card looks to be in great shape and I checked two parts labeled FB1 and FB2 that I assume are fuses that are intact. No shorted tantalums that I can find.
I also tried my only other PCI video card (Intergraph Rendition V1000-E) and although it does not get a POST error....I do not get any video either.
Any suggestions for tracking down what the problem might be?
Could it be a BIOS setting issue?
PCI slot issue?
Motherboard is: https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/asus-p … -xp6np5-rev-1-8
The system can boot from a 16-bit ISA VGA card just fine.
Any help would be appreciated.
