AGP Graphics card covers pci slot 2 & Problems with sound card

I have already posted this on another part of the forum.
Hi i have an M Audio Delta192 Audiophile soundcard which is not working fully
i have been on the phone to the M Audio technical support about this
my problem is apparently i need to put the pci Soundcard card into the first slot after my graphics card which would be slot no 2
my graphics card has a fan on top which covers pci slot no 2 so the next available slot is slot 3 which is where i have my soundcard now
a lot of the functions available are greyed out in the M Audio Delta control panel this is the software used to control the parameters of the soundcard
is this right do i have to install my Soundcard in slot no 2 for it to work correctly
if so is there any way around this
my graphics card is a ATI Radeon 9800 XT
if there is no way around this are there any agp cards that i can get that dont have a great big fan on top that covers pci slot 2 that are good quality & can run 2 monitors
i cant seem to find any

Hi J D Knight
I'm Pretty sure it is this is what it has under my system profiler
ATI Radeon 9800 XT:
Chipset Model: ATY,R360
Type: Display
Bus: AGP
Slot: SLOT-1
VRAM (Total): 256 MB
Vendor: ATI (0x1002)
Device ID: 0x4e48
Revision ID: 0x0000
ROM Revision: 113-A14404-123
this was the graphics card installed when i bought the powermac
i understand the reasons for the fan as i am led to believe it is a powerfull card
but my main use is for audio is it true about the pci slots do i need to have my soundcard in slot 2 as M-Audio have told me if so then i do need to change my graphics card so i can get my soundcard working as it should
the only thing i need is my dual screens

  • PCI port problems with video card

    I have been running 2 video cards (ati 9800pro and 7500) fine for about 2 months now.  Over the weekend I came home to find the monitor with my second card garbled with black lines running up and down the screen, shifting left and right.  Also, there was a problem with my promise controller (had a question mark next to it in device manager)  I reinstalled that and it works fine now.  My second card continues to give me problems though.  Device manager picks it up and says that my card is working fine but in display settings my card does not show up.  I believe it a problem with the motherboard as I have tried 2 nvidia cards with the same result.  It is also not related to windows as if I change the boot config to load my second card first (pci) the black lines/wavy picture loads up with the msi screen and in the bios setup as well (totally unreadable).  I've also made sure that my monitor is working fine.  Any suggestions????  Thanks.

    Well to tell you the truth, I don't like the sound of this ...especially since you said that you tried another card, and had the same result....Well I would first go into the BIOS and on the PNP/PCI page, check the Clear NVRAM to enabled..As this will reset all the PNP devices...See if that works ...Have you tried to switch the AGP/PCI initiation sequence in the BIOS? back and forth?...You can also see if there are any IRQ conflicts.(but you probaly did this allready)...You can also try to increase the PCI latency, If it is set to 32 go up to 64 and try...Do you have any other PCI cards with problems?...Have you tried a different PCI slot?.....Well maybee another member or moderator has some advice ...Let us know.....Sean REILLY875

  • I have a problem with sound card

    Hi,
    I Have MSI 865PE Neo2-S Motherboard.
    I have downloaded the new Sound Card Driver, and I have problems with gaming in 5.1ch
    In Unreal Tournament 2004 my computer resets when it is set to 3D Sound + EAX
    In the old version of the sound card Driver the Unreal Tournament 2004 was working good, but in the old version I have problems with the SPDIF out
    In the new version the SPDIF working very good but I have problems with gaming
    How can I fix that?

    Hi,
    have you tried unistalling the sound drivers and then re-installing?  Its a shame I don't have Unreal Tournament 2004 as i have the same motherboard as you and I could try it.  Why do you need to set your in-game sound to 3D Sound + EAX?  3D sound I always thought its didnt sound very good.    
    Try the unreal Tournament forums and look for sound problems.  Maybe that might help http://www.ina-community.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?forumid=249
    Good Luck!

  • [845 Series] mb msi 848p neo-v problems with sound card

    Since I've bought my new MB, I'm experiancing some problems with my sound card. WinAmp and MusicMatch Jukebox ( any version) does not support 5.1 sound system, but playing in stereo system. The soundcard AC97 is OK, cause Winows Media Player is working properly.Does anyone had such problem and solved it?
    I must say that I've already used MSI MB, and all APPs worked properly with the same sound card. The difference is that my ex MB was based on old Intel processors, but not Presscot based as this one.

    Have you installed the latest driver to
    the Realtec soundchip(ALC 655)?

  • Have you problems with sound card when playing Netflix movies on MacBook Pro ?

    We have been having difficulty playing movies recently and we called Netflix last night. Accrding to their error code, we should re-install sound cards they said. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I'm not sure what to do to remedy this issue? thank you!!

    I'm so ****** off that it's been weeks and no solution has been provided for this.  In the middle of video editing, watching quicktime videos, youtube, or playing any games the computer hard freezes with a black screen and looping audio of about 1/2 second.
    FIX IT!

  • 915P Neo2, problem with sound card...

    I formatted my hd, and installed the WinXP OS again,
    WinXP can't detect the sound card, also Sound card's software can't detect the card.
    I checked the BIOS settings and the audio onboard in ENABLED mode.
    Before the reinstall the sound worked.
    What can be the problem  ???
    Thanks,

  • Gigantic problems with graphc card GeFore 8800GT under MacPro

    Hello
    I'm a user of MacPro 2 Quad-Core 3GHz computer with NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT graphic card.
    This is my second card like this one becouse I can't find any other with low price for exchange and for good using OpenGL.
    Now I have gigantic problems with this card under Mac again, please help.
    It have extreme temperatures and graphic crashes when I use on any game or anything which harder use it. At real, my older card before burn out and go to trash after this. Now it comes again
    Is there any software to speedup windmill or any thing in my system what I can change for this? I have a plan to buy a cooler, but I need help in software before this.
    Why good quality company like Apple use this bugged cards in expensive computers, I can't understand this.
    Regards
    Dawid

    Nvidia had / has had / a run of problems - and Apple can choose Intel integrated, AMD.... or Nvidia basically. Though on PC side there are reference designs and then HIS (makes a really good ATI with its own design and cooper cooler), EVGA on Nvidia front.
    We don't get all that many options.
    Drivers always get a lot of "heat" and criticism.
    Was so glad to have X1900 as a choice, but not the $399 (or wait and $250 BTO) 5 yrs ago, and its history of problems. And recalls. Or ATI 2600XT. Can't win for losing sometimes.
    One reason I went and bought GTX 460 and run Windows on my Mac Pro today of all things. Other reasons too over the years. Locked into EFI graphic cards and you can have anything you want on the salad bar, as long as you want either shrimp or chicken.
    So heat up the oven, get out the egg timer, and have at it!

  • Problem with my card ..

    hi ,
    i have a problem with my card , that i use it before and its fine but now itunes tells me  " Your payment methon was decline "
    and there is no none Option to choose  .
    i cant download anything now , cuz the store need to edit my payment first !!
    Any idea ?!

    If the reason you can't initialize your PCI-MXI-2 is because you can't find vxiinit, the good news is that you probably are initializing your PCI-MXI-2 automatically.
    The functionality of vxiinit is now performed automatically by the driver when the system starts. This has actually been true for the last few versions starting several years ago. For a while, we continued to provide a version of vxiinit that didn't actually do anything, for compatibility with installations where legacy code required the existence of vxiinit; if you think something like that would still be useful, please describe your situation so we can consider it as a use case in future versions.
    If you are seeing some other error saying that you can't initialize your PCI-MXI-2, please reply
    to this answer with further details.

  • Problem with RSC card on sun fire v490

    Hi all,
    I have a little problem.
    I got few v490 that were already used.
    When I connect to the management port of the RSC card I get the prompt of the RSC password, somthing i don't have.
    The OS doesn't get loaded and I can't do anything. ( if I had access to the OS I would have reseted the password)
    So now, I got left with the only option i thought of.
    1. Disconnect the RSC card,
    2. This will force the output of the consol to go to the serial port(tty).
    3. Jumpstart the machine (beacuse I don't even have the password for the machine)
    4. connect the RSC card, and reset the password.
    There is someone here that encountered this problem??
    Maybe there is a jumper that can reset the RSC password. i don't know... every response will be great!
    Thanks!!!
