I'm still stuck with the 3.78 driver set from www.hercules.com with the 3.66 NV4_mini.sys. So far, all the current drivers I've used have failed. They where unstable and crashed often after 5minutes. I tried the 5.xx drivers. It would boot all the way up to the point where you see the win2k logo and the scrolling bar at the bottom. But when it refreshes into display driver I see my CD-Rom drive light flash and my rig reboots. I have to boot into VGA mode and go back to the 3.78/3.66 combo. Any advice? Could this be a MS registry error? Any one else having these problems with my setup?

There is some problem with Epox motherboard if I am not mistaken. Check tomshardware Epox vs Asus guide

Well, I set the CAS to auto and turned off SGRAM bank interleaving and I can finally boot into win2k with full AGP support and the 5.13 drivers. I tried using the 5.14 but just about when it goes to hit the display driver, I get a high pitch noise raging out of my sound card and into my 5.1 setup. Luckly it didn't blow the speakers and my cat was pissed. But at least I can finally boot with good drivers.
 
Thanks much man. -- psi

There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and SETI@home. I don't believe this to be a coincidence.
