We know for sure that the card works properly in the specific video mode 
it is in *during POST* (not latter).

This is very unlikely to be the native resolution of your monitor (the 
BIOS doesn't support that), it's more likely something like 640x480.

Your monitor should be able to tell you that (poke its menu / settings).

BIOS options are sometimes quite cryptic. You might want to (re-)read 
the user manual for your motherboard.

Basically anything that is PCIe related could be relevant, in addition 
to the obvious settings for anything graphics related.

Kind regards,
