I have a duron 650@1050 on an ABIT KT7. I am running win2k server and it has a pretty lite workload. I reinstalled so it's no longer a domain server, i dont use RRAS or have dhcp server running anymore. It just runs ICS, and is used as a file, ftp, cstrike server. It doesn't even have sound, so no multimedia or games (other than server). It seems to be running alright, but will I notice speed improvements with the 4 in 1's? I know they solve some vid card problems, but i don't even use an AGP card. I have a v3 2000 pci. So should i mess with it? I like the if it aint broke dont fix it methodology. If i will notice improvements i will install though.

I dont know about the rest but I would not under any cirumstances use the Via Bussmaster drivers. I have tried the 4 in one drivers several times and I will never try them again. I think a search in tech support for this will show why I have this opinion on these drivers.

Go ahead and get the 4.26 version,they cause no problems and are neccessary to the VIA chipset.
