Who had succesfully run this card on BX 133 without forcing your card to run at AGP 1X (reducing the AGP Aperture Size to 16 MB)? And what motherboard are you using?

My card will run on Gigabyte 6BX7 but not on Asus P3B-F (All run at 133MHz FSB)

I'm confused. Can someone explain this to me? Is the motherboard designs matter?

I have some strange problems with mine. I have the Revision B. DDR and when I overclock it Windows 98 will lock up running the OpenGL screen savers. I'm really disappointed that the card isn't working that well. I'm considering selling it now.

What motherboard are you using, MustISO? Is it VIA Apollo 133 chipsets based mobo?

I've tried it on two mobo's. An ASUS P3B-F and an ABIT BF-6. Both of which should be really stable. I'm gonna try puting my TNT-2 in there and trying to see what happens.

Well, I doubt it is something with your card. I have the rev.b but on an Athlon platform. Perfectly stable unless the overclocking is too high. Not a problem anywhere.

What are you overclocking your card to? Have you updated the bios? What drivers are you using.......etc.

When overclocking mone I never go above 150 core and 340 mem.
I only experience lockups when pushing the memory any higher. Try adjusting those and see what happens.

Why did you ask if it was a Via Apollo? I have that combo and I my computer locks up every minute or so. Is there a known problem with the two? The board is a P3V4X.

Why did I ask if it was VIA Apollo? The answer is simple. I've tried my card with a VIA board (It was Gigabyte) and I had similar problem with MustISO. This problem only happened to me right after I install VIA AGP driver. And my friend Jayman also had the same problem with it. I don't know if it's a known problem, but I'm pretty sure that the problem is not the graphic card.

JJ650, what I mean overclocking is not overclocking the core or the memory. It's the AGP Bus, I had problem running this card on Asus P3B-F at 133MHz FSB. I can run this card at 150/340 like you did without any problem.
