I have a Compaq dc 7600 CMT and tried to install an inno3d N84GS-4DDV-D3BX (8400 series PCI express) video card. There was no video image. Did not seem to boot.
Removed the card. Tried to disable the on board VGA under the advanced/PCI. But every time I went in to BIOS it seems to reset back to IRQ 10.
I reset bios to factory default (probably not wise). Now will not boot windows XP pro 32. Boot starts but kicks out and restarts in endless loop. Same for safe mode.
Now running XP Pro 32. I intend to move to windows 7 home edition 64 bit next week.
Suggestions to recover?
Is the video card compatible with this motherboard?
How can I tell what motherboard I have?
