[KLUG Members] AGP problem (maybe?)

I have a Gigabyte 5AA mainboard, AMD K6-1 processor.  I have an AGP graphics
adaptor.  When I try to install Mandrake I get a message that says "Install
crashed.  Memory may be missing."  I replaced the memory.  I replaced the
graphics adaptor with a PCI card and it loaded fine but the graphics sucked.
So I went and got a new AGP card thinking that maybe the original AGP card
was hosed but I got the same results with the new card.  I have upgraded to
the latest BIOS for the mainboard.  Could there be some BIOS setting that
might be screwing me up?  My next step is to replace the mainboard but I
hate to go through all the trouble and money if it is something fixable.
