Go into the BIOS and set "AGP/PCI Frequency" to [66/33] instead
of the Auto setting. On some boards, Auto doesn't lock the clock,
while setting the frequency discretely to the correct value,
makes the board work properly. The P5VD1-X isn't that common,
so you may be the first to experiment with this.

Just a guess,
