Ok, this PCCHIPS M811LU KT266A Socket A system worked fine until I tried to upgrade the video card from a ATI 9200 to an ATI 9500, now after re-seating the processor, swapping RAM and video cards, and using the reset CMOS jumper, the system still only replies with a long beep that constantly repeats no matter how long the system is on... I have checked the AGP slot and there is no debris or anything in the pins, and they are all undamaged, as well with the processor and RAM slots/pins... can anyone please help? I would love to be able to salvage this board, as it came with a case built for the features of the board, and I am not "board shopping savvy" enough to know how to find one that could utilise all of this case's great features.

If you have the manual for the board look for error codes in the manual. Have you tried reseating the card? If the board is slightly longer than the old one it may not be going down completely. Is there a lock on the back end of the AGP slot? Have you verified the card is compatible with your board? What happens if you try the original card?
