Win2K drivers for Entrega and Xircon are OUT!

Dragon-Lord
Xircon bought out Entrega, so if you have products from either company, head to Oddly, I could not successfully download the files from the web page (links not working yet), but ftp. xircon. com/pub/ has everything you'd need.

Scsi card & KA7 owners beware.

Damien
If you're thinking of up to the lastest Bios for the ABit KA7 and you have a scsi card such as an Adaptec 2940UW or a 29160 then beware. I've just tried installing bios revision KA7_RX - and it seems to prevent these scsi cards from installing their bios successfully at bootup - result no scsi hard drive will boot.

300MHz Min for software DVD is bull****

euankirkhope
Yes it must be true. DMA is enabled, overlay works and PowerDVD is so jerky its unbelieveable, but the sound is fine. WinDVD isn't much better either. Decided to install win98 on a small 500Mb partition to see how it goes.

256 MB - BSOD ??

herb
Hi, I have an Abit BE6 with cel300a@450 and 128 MB PC100. Now I bought another 128 MB PC133. When I use both memory sticks at once, I get a BSOD in W2k shortly after booting. I tried the most conservative bios settings and every possible combination of the memory slots (the be6 has 3).
