If any of you read my post(s) in the Scout255 thread, here's an update (such as it is).
Since I couldn't get the G400 to work-- even after recovering the BIOS with Matrox's recover tool-- or get the S3 PCI card to work in slot 1, but only in slot 3, I was figuring that I was going to have to take out the BX mobo and change it back to the LX board...
As I was getting it out of the closet I found Jord's G200 (yes, it was there all the time, I was hysterical, so sue me ) and decided to try it as a last-ditch effort.
It was immediately detected by WinME and 5.52 installed with no problems. Updated the BIOS to the current, and now 6.04 is running with no problems.
Jord will try the G400 on a different machine, but does anybody have an alternative to "The card has been toasted somehow?"
Just wondering.
