Computer won't boot with Delta 1010 Installed

[Andelusion]

Hallo, had this card off ebay for a while now, it worked for a day fine, then stopped working.

My PC will boot however nothing is displayed on the monitor, I also hear no normal motherboard beeps.

I've tried the soundcard in 2 other PCs (one newer than mine, one much older) and it works perfectly.

I'm using the latest soundcard drivers and latest motherboard drivers, I've also tried after a fresh reformat.

I've tried it in several differenct PCI slots and am now completely confused as to what to try!

Does anyone have anything to suggest at all? I'm using an Abit NF7, Amd 3200+ and am running XP with Sp2.

Thanks, i've emailed m-audio tech support once already btw but never got a reply =-/ have just sent a second one off.

Thanks, well the PC boots fine without the card installed so I definately haven't nocked the graphics card.

Can't really do a system restore as i've reformatted since installing the card (to eradicate any software issues!) and it still doesn't work.

Ok rest of the spec:

Antec 350 watt PSU
Abit NF7 Mobo
Athlon 2500 clocked to 3200 (I've tried it stock also, no difference)
Twinmos DDR400 (512mb)
GeForce 6800GT

Disabling the nvidia audio in the bios seems like a good idea.

I have a sketchy memory of the day the card stopped working, but I believe I had some trouble installing the nvidia audio codecs, but still, i've reformatted since then so would have thought that wouldn't change anything.

Thanks for your help so far! M-Audio have done bugger all lol

Aye disabling onboard audio in BIOS didn't do anything, i've cleared CMOS a couple of times before and tried it but to no avail.

M-Audio tech support from the site have told me to phone tech support as there could be 'many solutions to this problem, ring tech support for a quick solution' seems to be a bit of a contradiction there! Oh well.

Apparently m-audio stuff has a lifetime warranty so I may even be able to get it replaced..

Did you try it in the bottom most PCI slot?

Yep Phoning tech support today (Weds) hopefully, just need to put some credit on my phone, will be using mobile ( ) as just moved into a new house and don't have a landline at the moment. Great.
