Ok... I gave up and returned the card.After following almost all advise
which resulted in a resolution of 640x480 or a completely distorted screen,
I decided that this card had to go. Im back to the 8500GT which is
recognized fine and works, (not THAT fast though).
Maybe I will try another brand of 8800GT based card. Or a non NVIDIA one.

ANY suggestions ? (In the same price-range) Or shoudl I wait for the now
moderately-priced 9000 series Nvidia card ?
