PCI/Integrated Graphics Problem

Disable all unused ports in the bios like parallel, serial, floppy etc...and we can see if resources are made available like that.

I've tried all that, but nothing I can change in the BIOS makes any difference!

The one thing that does make a difference is setting the on-board graphics to be the primary adapter - then everything comes up cleanly, but of course there's no output from the PCI card. Setting the PCI card as the primary results in the reported errors, even with every non-essential device disabled in the BIOS.

Going through the same problem outlined here, it's ridiculous! Why can't it just work with 7?!

My card is an Fx 5500, again real cheap, no point if I have a 360. getting the same code 12 error.

Exactly the same Mobo, have you had any luck since your last post?????

No, I just gave up in the end and made do with the integrated graphics and no Aero. Luckily I was able to RMA the PCI card for a full refund (thanks eBuyer!).

Any chance you still have that SDK kit? or the plx800.sys files? I would like to try that driver and tinker with the code 12.

I have a similar setup on an older pc. It ran fine in XP, but vista and 7 both have a code 10 with the default windows driver, if the PLX driver gets far enough to have code 12 I think I can tweak the resources to get it to run. I think I had to do this for XP and tell it a resource to use, but with a code 10 vista and 7 will not let me alter any settings.

I tried to register on the PLX technologies website to get the sdk and it says I need a work email address. I even traded a few emails hoping to get it another way.

Hi All,

I know that this is probably not the right thread for this and I do not want to hijack it, but I am having a problem with this motherboard P4R8L on the Asus Pundit-R, it is the same with both vista and win7 (I have tried to install both and the same problem comes up!).

The network drive does not show on the device manager and I am unable to install it. Tried to install the 3c920b driver via add legacy hardware but did not work, does anyone know the cure to this problem?

It also does not show the SD/MMC..etc Card reader either, but that is a secondary problem.

Anyone had this? any solution or possible steps for a solution

Thanks
