...okay, from what I'm reading this Geforce 256/Geforce DDR (unsure exactly what it is) is extremely old. Indeed the system BIOS will not even initalize if the DVI port is attached during boot. I'll try the native driver once I get in my GeForce 2 MX 400 which I have on order and notify you how that goes. It's the only card I could find that's PCI /and/ has DVI ports (very rare), since I want to Xinerama three DVI/HD flatscreens, and you can only have one AGP card in even the newest motherboards, you have to have two PCI cards and 1 AGP card, each with one DVI port.
