I just got this PCI TNT2 M64 card off of ebay:
Bought these (retro) hardware today
I first tested it in my 440LX board and it worked great. I then put it into the machine I intend it for, Packard Bell 430FX chipset-based. No video signal. I put another PCI card in (Voodoo3 2000) and it works fine. Onboard Cirrus Logic works fine. TNT2 M64 no signal. I put the TNT2 M64 back into the 440LX and it works fine still. 😕
I've gone through the BIOS and turned Plug n Play off, which didn't help. I tried with Plug n Play on and made all IRQs available, didn't help. Listening to the system and watching the HDD led, the system does not even try to boot, so it appears to be a hardware conflict. Strange.
There is no jumper to disable onboard graphics. It automatically disables when a PCI graphics card is plugged in.
Any ideas?
