    Unhappy Windows freezes upon starting, XFX GF 6200 256MB DDR2 TV DVI (G) PV-T44A-WANG

    My windows won't boot after installing XFX GF 6200 256MB DDR2 TV DVI (G) PV-T44A-WANG. It freezes the instant after the windows xp loading bar with the pointer and half the screen with sometime yellow or blue rectangular box.

    I am having Gigabyte VM800PMC(BIOS ver. F4) with Intel E2140 1.6Ghz with 2*1 GB kingston DDR2.

    The system runs fine without the graphic card. Do i need to change something bios to run it? I have selected Init Display First as [onboard AGP] and VGA share memory size as [64M] . I didnt find any other option in bios other than these two that related to Graphics.

    Till now I've been using the onboard graphics and have installed all the latest drivers downloaded from the Gigabyte/VIA website.

    I was running this graphic card on my other PC with asus motherboard and was/is running fine.

    I am guessing this is either a wrong BIOS configuration or driver problem. Can anyone guide me please?

    Disable the onboard VGA.

    I have tried running it with the oboard VGA uninstalled and got the same result. I just now tried running it with the motherboard graphic adapter driver uninstalled and still got the same result.

    Do you have a 300 Watt or greater PSU?
