Questions about Kyro II

[Tanked]

I just got my Kyro II from Hercules about a week ago, but theres a few problems. 3DMark2001 doesn't think it can "render into textures" (whatever that means), so I can't run the demo. Another benchmarking program I have doesn't find it as a AGP card. Can anyone help? My system is an Athlon 600 on an Asus K7V.

Do you have the latest Via 4 in 1 drivers?

Running 3DMarks2001 freezes the screen on mine. Play games all night and have no problems.

On a side note, 3D Mark used to also give me crashes on my TNT 2 Ultra.

The first release of DX8 had a lot of Kyro2 features dissabled as it wasn't WHQL certified. Rather than have them work incorrectly, MS chose to dissable them! The K2 has now been certified and all features will be enabled in DX8.1(which should be released shortly). So expect a large performance increase with tyhat release-a lot of people find that they get far greater performance in DX7 ATM due to this!
