    If you need Linux return the KyroII ASAP and get something else. If normal driver releases are any indication of there speed you wont see them until 2003.

    Kyro 2 overclocking

    There are quite a few sites that offer Kyro/KyroII overclocking tools. Search your favorite 3D-type site for one. Dont expect a high OC from it,maybe an extra 5-10 avg; higher OC'ers are lucky and getting better voltage to the core(tests have shown wide variance)YMMV. For extreem OC'ing there is...

    Has anyone tried the leaked Kyro II drivers?

    I'm one of the lucky ones running 768Mbs even with 7.114s ,I thinks its cause I have an older KT133 686a. EDIT: Oh,No idea on the time of official release,there seems to be no hurry pulling these down so maybe there close or,just shutting guys like me up.

    Also just for giggles goto www.pcpitstop.com and run the test,once in a while this thing actually finds something usefull to tweak and cuts back on trobleshooting if you get lucky. Going through the Bios with the cards install guide in your hand cant hurt. On a totaly unrelated note since your...

    Some of the 3D#2001 tests like the nature test only run on the GF3's so thats not a problem. I am still wondering about the Voodoo3 Files that may be left behind? Do you mean that you reformatted first(if so stop reading)or did you just uninstall them. There's a few registry entrys the Voodoo's...

    Sorry never thought to ask resolution,I just assume that if you dont mention you mean default. Moving the NIC to another slot might help I have a 3Com NIC that insists on IRQ11,I even put it in anouther computer and it took IRQ11 on my PC.;) Also with the DX8.0a check this link for turning off...

    Has anyone tried the leaked Kyro II drivers?

    I've been using them for a few days,performance picked up a bit still has the texture problems but from what I understand there not the finals.....Or at least I hope not ;) There a little touchy for some people installing it seems but they stuck on the second try here.

    Well the first thing I always ask is have you installed the latest VIA 4in1s? Also the sharing verywell could be an issue but I'll let a GF/WinME owner stab at it. Ohh and whats your directX version.....

    Okay, It is now monday, where are my damn Detonator 4's?!?!

    Strange that a few sites got drivers to use against a new Radeon but then they dont get released? I wonder just how those were optimized,not that I beleave in my heart NVidia is evil or anything.;)

    voodoo 5 pci - mac to pc flashing -> results

    The best Bios for the V5 AGP was the 116 IMHO,I'm not sure if the same is true or availible for the PCI but I'll just toss it out there. On the crazy side I thought the last set of WHLQ drivers were the best 104.1 I think was the number.....???

    OMG! Blue Orb or Modified Skillsaw?

    No ,sounds like a fin or screw is scraping if its like that,should be a resonable level swoosh sound.

    Groovy case mod that gives any case screwless access to PCI and AGP slots

    Having any problems with your Kyro 1 and II board?, this new faq might help you

    The one thing this card desparatly needs is adjustable gamma levels for desktop/d3d/gl,it's just too dark in default and not every monitor has a gamma adjustment.........and 3deep stinks.
