Need some advice here

bottleneck
Well,I'm thinking about buying a Guillemot 3D Prophet II GTS 32MB DDR,but I'm not so sure if my MOBO:ASUS P2B-F(i440BX chipsett) will handle its power requirements. Getting a SDR GF2GTS wouldn't make a difference,would it? The main reason for not just getting a i815 MOBO and being on the safe side is that I'm as us ...

i430TX

miku
Hi, I have an old computer Intel Pentium 200 MMX with a i430TX motherboard. I dont know the manufacturer. Tried to look inside but no go. The bios is American Megatrends. The problem is: When I use both simm and dimm slots of the moterboard windows 2000 crashes on bootup and gives me the erorr ntdll.

CDR/RW Burning with Whistler

beefchub
One of the features I'm looking forward to (but I'm sure Adaptec isn't) is built in support for CDR/RW in Whistler. The vision is as follows, and I quote the coveted Beta 1 feature guide: enables users to save information to a CD.

RealMagic Hollywood Plus

anton
I just obtained this card and installed it under Win2k. The driver installation went fine (the 3rd time through) and DVD Station installed as well. But, when I try to output an mpeg to the TV, my TV just displays crazy colors.

Setting DMA for drives in W2K

PsychoSword
I am new to Windows 2000 and I am hoping someone in this forum can tell me how you turn DMA on for CD-ROM Drives and Hard Drives in Windows 2000. I checked in device manager, but there doesn't seem to be the option like in Windows 9X.

I hate that review

jdulmage
That site. . . personally, not because I like Whistler, it's just overall, that review sucked. I mean, the guy obviously didn't get into the depths of it, saying crap like I'm starting to realize what did Microsoft even add into this thing.
