#@#@#@# help me some one this is going to kill me
 
1) Try to re-seat the GF
2) Try to re-seat the processor
3) Try moving your other cards to different slots, you may have a conflict that does not show up in windoze.

I had the same problem with my GF2MX. I tried lots of stuff, i think one of these things helped me.
 
this is what Visiontek had to say .

Q. I have an Abit KA7 and sometimes when I switch my computer on the video card is not detected. How can I fix it?
You will have to return your motherboard to Abit for modification. There is a compatability between this motherboard and certain manufacturer's GeForce 2 cards. It will not cost you anything in labour and component charges but you will have to pay for P&P to and from Abit. Contact Abit for more information.

Did all this and took out all but the GF2 and still the same thing.....
 
I seem to remember that 'compatibility problem' was just due to the mobo not being able to supply enough juice to the power-hungry GF2 cards - I'd be surprised if that's the problem as you can get it to run when warm-booting, and I thought they'd sorted out that problem with the new boards (think it was fixed pretty much straight away). Still, you could have got an older board that had been sitting on the vendor's shelf for a while, so it's probably worth returning it. Hope they get a new one to you quick, and that it fixes the problem.
 
try setting the I/O voltage at 3.5 . i remember my friend having a similar problem with his gforce card.
 
got the rage 128 out and put it in my new box work ok but buy buy DDR
