Check your BIOS under "Plug and Play OS Enabled". Whatever setting it's on, switch it off. If that doesn't work, change it back and try it again.

This is a bit of Windows witchcraft, but sometimes it works.


Also, is your BIOS set on PCI/AGP priority or AGP/PCI priority? The system can see the other Voodoo card OK, right?
