I have:
Asus a7m266-d rev. 1.03 running bios 1004
Gainward gf3 ti200 golden sample running bios 3.20.00.20.00

Under Win2k I get video freeze -> system powerdowns in all games (seems to happen faster in higher resolutions: seconds at high resolutions, maybe a minute if I'm lucky at 640, but usually 30 seconds or less). This also happens in 2d apps, which reminds me, I'm gonna post this before the system crashes again while I'm composing.. heh, happend once already).

Anyway, I hope all a7m266-d owners will post their system specs and any problems they are having, or if everything is just peachy.

I'll post my specs in a couple minutes after I reboot from my impending crash... it's coming any second now... I can feel it... :(

Hi,

i am using a Prolink XX-Player Geforce3 card. Running XP Pro.
Not one problem. Games run fine (RTCW, NfS Porsche, MS Combat Flight Sim, TOCA2....).
I am running all games at 1024x768x32. It is even possible to get the FSB to 140 MHz.
That gives me 2x XP2020+ (instead of 1900+). Just for fun i increased the clock on my Geforce3 to
220/510. 3DMark2001 is running perfect.

I installed the latest NVidia drivers 23.71, but also the 22.80 worked fine.
I installed also all neede drivers from AMD. For W2K there is a spezial patch at AMD.

Check my Rig details. No problems at all. Runs great at all supported resolutions. Sounds like driver problems; card or MB.
