Win2000 + 3D Prophet II GTS 64MB Probs
This is a discussion about Win2000 + 3D Prophet II GTS 64MB Probs in the Windows Hardware category; First, the specs: P3 750 CuMine ASUS P3B-F 3D Prophet II GTS 64MB SB Live! Platinum AHA-2940UW Hollywood Plus Second, the problem: Maybe it's me but I am not sure. I've been trying to get this card to run smoothly for me for the past few days.
First, the specs:
P3 750 CuMine
ASUS P3B-F
3D Prophet II GTS 64MB
SB Live! Platinum
AHA-2940UW
Hollywood Plus
Second, the problem:
Maybe it's me but I am not sure. I've been trying to get this card to run smoothly for me for the past few days. So far I've noticed a few things. Some of my small utilities that I use seem to be causing lock-ups when I tried to fire up Q3A or UT. I've done a bit of testing to see which one caused it and found the culprit. That's the good part. The bad part is that I cannot seem to get the system stable enough to have repeated 3D initialization. In other words, if I tried to fire up UT or Q3A again after quitting, I get a lock-up.
I've also gotten some lock-ups when using the drivers from the CD when I purchased this card. Both this and the reference drivers seems to be giving me a bit more headache than I bargain for. If this is definitely a software issue, I'd like some pointers to that. Ask any questions. Ask about anything. And if you got any pointers, tips, or whatnot, post it up and I'll try them out and let ya know how it turns out.
On a different side of note... this card kicks major ass... when the system isn't freezing that is.
