Default "Erratic behavior" 128Mb MX440 on a PIII@500MHz, Any idea?

Hi,

I just bought a 128MB DDR AGP Video Card with nVidia's GeForce4 MX440
3D Chip and TV-Out. When I fisrt installed it was working great, but
the next day when turning on the computer the display was with a lot
of characters with different colors. I removed the card physically
from the PC and I reinatalled it and again it worked fine. Now it is
doing the same, any idea if is some "imcompatibility" with my M.B. I
have a A-Bit BX6?

Thanks a lot in advance,

C. White

It could be because you have a problem somewhere.

sounds like it's fried. I had something similiar once with my TNT2 that
went nuts after a faulty firmware upgrade. I have heard others say that
when displaying coloured chars while in BIOS mode that then the card is
fried.
