I had hoped that this would also work with my X1650 PCIe-card.

But it doesn't. With DVI i get a black screen on Output1 and a white screen on Output2. With VGA i get white stripes resp. red stripes.

 

But thanks very much for giving me another little chance, and the others a full supported video card :P

Hi folks,

 

i have now had the time to check where the problem lies. graphics board or motherboard. It's the motherboard. The board i checked back with is i915p-based (my mums pc).

 

That means: modbin's installer works like a charm with the PCIe-Version of the X1650Pro Card (in my case manufactured by MSI).

 

The problem seems to lie in the VIA-based mainboard...

 

You can renamen the thread to x1650agp/pcie.

 

Will now have to find the problem with the VIA-chipset PCIe!?

 

Or could it be the TFT-Screen? (I connected it with the same DVI-to-VGA-connector that i used on the other pc with it's CRT).

 

Edit: I took the working CRT-monitor over to my desk and hooked it up to my pc (see signature). Ran the x1650-installer. Rebooted and it worked. Then i took away the CRT and put on the TFT (with the running system) and it recognized the monitor-resolutions (a lot less than the CRT offers). Perfect.

Then i rebootet with the TFT-monitor connected. Back to my picture with only colourful stripes. Seems that my monitor is not appreciated on start...

Tried already another TFT-monitor. Didn't help it.

 

Sorry for spamming the thread more or less. But i'm hunting the solution. Seems to be out of reach for me. Perhaps somebody else will find my results helpful (for not having to find out everything by himself).
