DEAR TEK-TIPS MEMBERS/USERS/EXPERTS,

I HAVE IBM PC SERVER 330 MODEL: (8640-PM0) WITH LATEST BIOS 28A .... I INSTALLED WINDOWS 2000 SERVER ON IT WITH BOOTABLE CD. IT HAS BUILT IN S3 TRIO64V+ CARD WHICH IS WORKING PROPERLY BUT WHEN I INSTALL ANOTHER 4MB ATI 3D RAGE IIC CARD OR TRIDENT 4MB CARD IN PCI EXPENSON SLOT 1 OR 2 THEN I GOT VGA CONFLICT ERROR IN DEVICE MANAGER. AND IT'S SHOWING YELLOW TAGS ON BOTH CARDS. AND IN VGA PROPERTIES/SETTINGS I GOT ONLY 16 COLORS DISPLAY :(

WHEN I CLICK ON ATI RAGE IIC CARD IN DEVICE MANAGER I SEE THIS ERROR.

Your computer's system firmware does not include enough information to properly configure and use this device. To use this device, contact your computer manufacturer to obtain a firmware or BIOS update. (Code 35)
Click Troubleshooter to start the troubleshooter for this device.

AND WHEN I CLICK ON S3TRIO64V+ IN DEVICE MANAGER I SEE THIS ERROR.
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
Click Troubleshooter to start the troubleshooter for this device.

I ALSO TRY DISABLE S3TRIO CARD BUT I STILL GOT SAME VGA CONFLICT :(...


I REALLY WANT TO INSTALL 4MB OR 8MB 3D PCI CARD IN MY IBM SERVER FOR GAMES.

I ALSO READ THIS IN IBM PC SERVER 330 HARDWARE MAINTANCE MANUAL THAT WHEN U INSTALL ANY OTHER VGA CARD IN IBM SERVER THEN BUILT IN VGA WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY DISABLED. BUT I DON'T WHY THIS CONFLICT NOT RESOLVING... AND I ALSO INSTALLED LATEST BIOS FROM IBM SITE WHICH IS 28A.

PLEASE HELP ME !!!
