I recently bought a GF2 MX400 at a fairly decent price (I though). Cant exactly establish Brand - got it in an STLABS box . . .
I am NOT a big gamer - just tought I'd be able to see the special effects in Need For Speed III for once. Also thought to gain a bit of speed in some playing around in Adobe Premier 6.
1) Trying to play NFS III in 800x600 16 bit results in keyboard!!! freezing for about 1 minute. This doens't happen in 640x480. 1024x768 isn't even available . . .
2) Adobe bluescreened on me when trying to build previews. This didn't happen with the old 8MB SiS AGP card!!
I am not sure if DX 8.0 is perhaps the problem. Any ideas?
My system:
MB: AOPEN AK73 A(V) (KT133A chipset)
CPU: Athlon 1.2 (100Mhz FSB)
OS: Win 98SE
DX 8.0
Driver: nVidia Detonator 28.32
AGP 2x (presumably) - AGP 4x disabled.
Everything runs stock.
Thanks everyone.
