Do you have on-board VGA?
Do you still have the old VGA card?

1. Unplug the new as well as the old video card
2. Reboot
3. IN the BIOS, set the primary display card to on-board VGA
4. Save and boot into Window$ once
5. do NOT install driver
6. shutdown
7. plug in the new VGA card
8. IN the BIOS, set the primary display card to PCIe or AGP...
whichever is appropriate
9. boot into Window$
10. install driver this time...

Re: cant install drivers "setup did not find compatable drivers......setup will exit"
I made a mistake.
The P4C800 Deluxe does not have on board VGA
I should have said the new Sapphire HD3850 is running in the VGA mode with
no drivers installed
what should i do now?

Had exactly the same problem, the 8.1s supplied with the card worked, but
no others - not even the hotfix ones from Sapphires site.
I'm sticking with the supplied ones for the time being.

Re: cant install drivers "setup did not find compatable drivers......setup will exit"
I haven't personally dealt with the problem, but I think that the newer
Catalyst versions may have trouble with some AGP cards on some motherboards.
It may be worth trying a "hotfix" version (32 MB):
Return address scrambled. Replace nkbob with bobkn.
