Bigballsbarry · 23-October-03, 10:51 AM

I have just bought 3 tyan tachyon g9600 pros and have stuck them in 3 identical machines xp2400+,msi k7n2g-l(nforce2 with IGP),2*256mb pc 2700,60gb maxtor ,300w psu ,all running windows XP now 1 card works in all 3 machines but 2 dont work in any. Problem is i just get a siren sound on attempting to boot up,however both the 2 problem cards work fine on my home machine duron 1300,kudoz 7g,128mb pc 2100 windows xp pro. Any1 got any idea wtf is going on in dodge?????

.......wow that sounds wierd. Try reseeding the video card a few times and then try reseeding your memory, and then your cpu if it keeps happening. Those are the 3 basic things that usually happen when there are sirens.

Well it cant be cpu or memory or the other card wouldnt work either however i think it might well be the contacts on the other two cards are a bit fussy on the motherboard. Is that possible??
Anyway gonna give it a go tonite try reseeding em a few times. Really cant think what else it could be.

Well tried reseeding it like 30 times. No joy then tried it in my mates rig worked like a dream. WTF can it be????????????
Anyone have any idea at all.

Reseat the cpu and memory.

Bigballsbarry · 24-October-03, 09:58 PM

Cant be the cpu or memory dude cause the other card boots up in both these 2 machines first time and its same card as the 2 that dont boot up. This is definately some strange s**t. Im pulling my hair out cause i dont even know where to start tackling this prob.

PSU may be a little on the weak side for that setup.

sKuLLs · 25-October-03, 01:30 AM

ok well completely

are those tyan tachyon g9600 pros relatively good? like say if i played half life, unreal 2 and halo?

Yippee fixed the little blighters. Changed the jumpers from 8x to 4x seemed to do the trick and doesnt seem to have affected performance much ,and btw skulls its a real nice card for the price

Considering this post is from 3 months back, I am doubting he is active anymore with the 6 posts he had accumulated.

Now, in order to change the AGP speed from 8x to 4x you must change it in the bios. What motherboard do you have? Go to the manufacturers page or look in the manual that came with the motherboard on how to change the settings.

i have a dfi lanparty nf2 ultra, i looked on the tyan website about moving the jumpers but that didnt seem to work, everything else in the computer seems to be working however i cant get into the bios because i cant connect the monitor without the graphics card, is there jumpers on the mobo aswell that i can change?
