Okay, I've been reading various stuff on RAID setups. Reviews of RAID cards often show benchmarks with various stripe sizes, and generally, larger stripe sizes are better when doing stuff that involves working with large files (i.e. digital video editing, etc.) So, that got me wondering, if...

If I had two hard drives, each 7200 RPM, but one was ATA-66 and the other ATA-100, would it be better to run each drive as the master on its own IDE channel, or can I run them as master & slave on the same IDE channel without any problems or real-world performance loss? I read somewhere...

I then followed the EXACT same steps in the EXACT same order installing the card & drivers on my new system... and it STILL does not work!! So what the heck is it about my Athlon Thunderbird 900, Abit KT7, and KT-133 chipset that the damn drivers (any version) do not like!? I am at a...

Well, I tried out the card in my old system, a Pentium II 500E, AOpen AX63 Pro, VIA Apollo Pro 133, 250W power supply. Started with a clean Win98SE install on a reformatted, blank c: drive, used the drivers off of the CD, and it worked! The Info displayed correctly and all my FSAA choices were...

Hmmmm, then I may be in for some fun... I am planning to make a Voodoo 5500 (PCI) coexist alongside a GeForce256 DDR!! I used to have the GeForce running alongside a Voodoo3 2000 (PCI) without any problems at all; clean OS install, GeForce first card, then all my other stuff, then lastly...

Well I'm just pissed that Asus hasn't released OFFICIAL drivers for the GeForce 6800 cards since April!! They have a couple of betas, and that's it... sheesh! They have more recent drivers for the 7700 series of cards, and I would expect they should work with earlier series cards, since they're...

Well, I did get them to appear briefly once; I installed the old drivers from the CD over top of the latest ones I had downloaded, and in the FSAA I had my four choices, but as soon as I rebooted the system I was back to two choices only again... I have tried every possible combination of...

Well, the card has got two chips and two fans on it, so I'm pretty sure it's a 5500... :) OK, so if the fault is in the 3dfx Tool Info tab not reporting the correct stats about the card, I can live with that. But how do I get the damn Tools to show ALL my FSAA choices? I should have...

I just installed this card on a clean, no other card installed, installation of Win98SE. But under the Info tab in the 3dfx Tools it says the following: Hardware Version: 1 Chip Series: VSA 100 Bus Type: PCI Total Video Memory: 32 MB Graphics Chips: 1 Graphics Clock Speed: 166 MHz BIOS Version...

Well great I can post messages fine, but whenever I try to start a new topic the connection just times out, no matter how many times I try...

Sorry this is just a test post... I can't post new topics so I wanted to see if at least I could post replies in topics...
