I have installed (after numerous tries) W2K server. I still cannot get my AGP contoller to install. When I boot I get "Finding new hardware... PCI to PCI bridge". It then tries to install the AGP controller and I get device failure.
 
My Computer setting in device manager is ACPI PC.
 
I have:
 
Abit BE6-II
Celeron 300mhz
512mb RAM
ATA66 installed
Asus V3800 with Nvidia 522 driver patch
 
How do I get my AGP controller installed...??
 
Is this a BIOS problem or a video card driver problem... or what??
 
Thanks,
 
Mike

I've got a BE6-II motherboard here.
I installed the 120-day trial version of Win2k Server before I took it off and installed my copy of Win2k Pro.
Never had any problems what so ever with the AGP controller.
As the guy before me said, are you over-clocking ya CPU?

OP
I have not overclocked the CPU. It is rated at 300mhz.
 
What did you set your BE6-II BIOS for PnP OS. Is your Computer setting ACPI in device manager? This should have been a easy install, but has lasted over 2 weeks.
 
Thanks,
