Do any of you know how I can force it to acquire an IRQ, etc.? XP reports it as functioning but unable to start. It's in PCI Slot 5

Any info, things to try, would be good. The Radeon is AGP, the Trio PCI. I've tried enabling/disabling it, and it still reports the Trio as 'unable to start'. The Radeon 9700 Pro reports both primary and secondary as fine - indeed I'm using them both right now. The BIOS allows initialization on PCI or AGP. Should I turn initialization on AGP off?

You have to set the PCI to initialize first in the BIOS for that card to work.

Thanks, I tried that. However, with all three monitors going, it freezes just as the taskbar is loading. It happens every time I've tried. I'm guessing that this is due, in part, to the Trio being primary. Is there any way of forcing the Trio to be 3rd?

Actually, could it be that the Radeon video card driver is interfering? I think I'll try disabling everything in msconfig and see what happens.
