7800 GTX Problem
Hello,
Just installed nvidia 7800 gtx card into new computer I built. Problem is that when I installed drivers the monitor goes black. Only way the computer will function is when I disable the video adapter. At this point I can forget putting in the second card and going SLI. Any advice??? |

Have you tried using the other card in single-mode? -- Shinnokxz - http://www.coryhansen.com |

If you can't make it work with one card, then what's the point of potentially jeopardizing two ? Any advice??? You have some form of operator, build or configuration error, if Windows Desktop looks OK before installing the drivers. Since you failed to describe any other elements of your system, we flounder in our assistance to you. John Lewis |
