try the card on another PC to make sure it's not your system..

Which nVidia driver did you install? Hopefully nothing more recent than the
45.23 driver. That card is not stable with the latest drivers.

Appears to use standard windows agp support, check mb site and no agp
drivers. Also Direct X not installed at that point.

Also see additional post

problem solved, went back to supplier, tried another card still same issue
so not a problem with the specific card.

Tried Radeon 9200 and all OK- Appears to be incompatability with MB and
nvidia 440MX or drivers.

Thanks for all help
