When i put it on my AGP Slot and Turn on the Computer, there was just a blank screen and again when i put my GeForce256 card on, everything was normal!!!!!!!
I tried all the things to get the card running, but failed!!
Just to make sure weather that if card has a prob. i gave it for testing on my freinds computer and it worked

He has a HP computer with a P4 HT CPu and a Intel 865 based Motherboard............and i have a Intel 845 chipset based Motherboard which also supports 8X AGP speed!!!!!!!!

How do i get the card runnin????
OR
Do i have to change my Motherboard or the whole system........................Please help!!!!!!

I think u have a very inferior motherboard for ur processor in terms of quality and features.I think u should update ur bios version with a patch available at a site www.downloads.3d.com(or something like that,to verify do a google search for downloads+nvhardpage ).It contains the drivers and patches of nearly all manufacturers including Mora .Happy hunting !

ok...the problem seems to be ur motherboard. If it works on your friends PC then I am pretty sure it should work on urs as it supports AGP 8X. So I would try one of the following :

1) Make sure that your card is slotted in properly in the AGP slot. Make sure its pressed in fully (careful dont damage the mobo!!).

2) Your BIOS might need an upgrade. So try to get hold of the BIOS for your mobo.

If all else fails I suggest you replace you mobo. Talk to your dealer and explain to him the situation
