Hi.

I've installed a creative sb X-Fi xtreme gamer.
As result i've got a "code 12" error on my geforce 7800 GS. I get only
4-K colors.

Tried different PCI-slots, flashed my bios, re-installed my Xp -->
nothings works

My system:
PIV 3.0 ; 2 gig DDR
Bliss 7800 GS 512MB (AGP)
Mobo Abit AI7

Can anybody give a solution?

Tnx in advance!

Fred
 
Code 12
This device cannot find any free <type> resources to use. (Code 12)

If you want to use this device, you must disable another device that is
using the resources this device needs. To do this, click Hardware
Troubleshooter and follow the instructions in the wizard.


where <type> is a resource type (IRQ, DMA, Memory, or I/O).

Solution button: Hardware Troubleshooter

This code means that one of the resource arbitrators failed. This can
occur if the device is software configurable and it does not currently
have a resource (if the system is out of resources). For example, all
the interrupts are in use, or the device requests a resource that is
currently in use by another device that will not release the resource.

To resolve this problem, follow the instructions in the Hardware
Troubleshooter. In addition, see the "Troubleshooting Conflicting
Hardware" topic in Windows 95 Help, or see the following article in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base:
