Abit Siluro Geforce2 MX - what drivers are you using???

[StanG]

I just bought this card, and the default drivers (5.32) SUCK!
None of my 3D games work! Even the ones that came w/ the card (Shogo and Test Drive 5)
I tried 6.31, but I can't set my resolution to anything beyond 640x480!!!
Abit's website does not provide any help!

BTW, my MB is Abit KT7 w/ Duron 600 running at 700.
Also, I upgraded the 4in1 drivers to 4.24a...
AAAAAA!!!!!!!

6.35

Tried both 6.35 and 5.45 and still not much improvement...
I am able to run higher frequencies, but the games still don't work!
Wonder if this may be some other problem (directX???).

You do need to make sure you have the latest DirectX loaded (7.0a if I am not mistaken). Good luck. Hopefully that is all it is.

No, there are stability issues with the kx133 and kt133 chipsets and the Geforce 2 (all varieties)

The K7T is known to have problems with these cards. I've been working on this issue for several days and tried many drivers and BIOS settings without being able to attain 100% stability. Follow this link to start with:

I've done everything they said to try to get an Inno3d Geforce2mx to work 100% and have failed. I DID get a little more stablity if you want to call it that but am not even close to 100% yet.

6.34.......
6.35 sucks (a bit worse than 6.34)

I feel your pain.

My Hercules 3D Prophet II MX also refuses to go beyong 640 x 480.

I just installed the newest detenator drivers, DirectX 7.0a, flashed my mobo bios, and nothing seems to help. This is on a Soyo 7VCA with the VIA 694X chipset.

I am so dang frustrated I might just go grab a voodoo4 4500 just to get things to work again. Argh.

<edit>Scratch that, the voodoo4 is worse than I thought. Looks like I'll just reinstall the voodoo3 2000 until I figre out a way to get my video resulotion worked out </edit>

$HIT! I am building this computer for my friend, and I actually
talked him into taking S540 card (16MB version) !!! Good thing he has no idea about computers/video cards. I might just eat 20% restocking fee and return the MX!

BTW, what are some of the more stable video cards for KT7?
Right now, I am running G200, and the card is great - with the exception of 3D, which by todays stanards is pathetic...
