Wells Gardner D9200 + Arcade VGA Card Problems

[Industen]

I'm having a difficult time setting up my new D9200 and the ArcadeVGA card. When I start to setup WinXP part of the screen is missing on the lower 3rd area(formatting a new HD). When I do get Windows setup up if seems to go in a loop and I can not get into windows it just keep rebooting. Should I just set up the computer with a different video card and monitor and then hook up the new stuff?

I've heard of this problem.  Are you using Windows XP?  If so, boot into safe mode, unistall the video driver windows uses for your card, then install the AVGA drivers.  Reboot and all should be good.  If you are not using Windows XP, or this does not solve your problem, go to the AVGA forum and post there, quicker answers.  Hope this helps.

You will require the use of another video card to get XP up and going.

Once installed, power down,  switch the cards, and boot into safe mode (hit F8 like mad after the BIOS check routine.  this may trigger the bios boot selection screen, so keep pressing F8 when you have selected your HDD to boot from).

Install the ATI drivers from the CD and reboot.

This is a problem with the XP install and particular (older) ATI cards, which includes the AVGA unfortunately.
