Apparently luck was not enough (though the stiff drink helped.) Regarding
a few items I was describing from memory, however, I was a bit incorrect.
Yes, I do have an AGP card (NVIDEA GeForce4 MX 4000), and it's in an AGP
slot (brown). No, the game/midi adapter is not on any sort of card, it's
just on a cover plate (my brain was confusing it with the modem card I took
out to make room). I have two PCI slots (white).

I went through all of the steps previously described; but without success.
Still no card detection. Balls.

I'm stumped. I guess I'll lug the box up to the local tech shop & have them
figure it out. This is just too strange for me.

Thanks for the help just the same.
Joe
