[Solved] Graphics card problem

I was an Arch Linux user until I changed my Graphics Boards to an ATI HD 3450 AGP.
Now I can't use Arch Linux because after a few seconds, my graphics card stops sending signal to the monitor.

This doesn't happen with other Linux distributions (I'm currently using Fedora 14 without this problem). It also didn't happen with my previous video card, an nVidia GeForce 6200.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Re: [Solved] Graphics card problem

Well, I've solved the problem on my own. When you boot, you have to add the option nomodeset to the configuration in the grub menu.
