Logitech Mouse Discussion

D.F. Angel
I was just wondering if anyone else was still having problems with logitech drivers > 9. 00. You know the problem where if you press two buttons at the same time they cancel each other out. I think I figured out how to fix it.

3DFX and 2428

Malkosha
I had some problems with 2419 and my Voodoo3 AGP card on my K62 system. When I installed the drivers it would reboot into a 4bit screen and I had to rollback (great feature BTW). I assume that it has to do with the MB chipset (VIA) in combo with the OS and 3DFX card.

Too much ram?

Chical
Ok, advanced server supports 8-way servers and 8GB ram, but if we only want 8-way and more ram do we have to goto datacenter(overkill)?

I am looking for a decent video card and I found that I could buy this card for about $130 and that is for 64 MB Ram. Is this card stable under Windows 2000? I was going to pair this up with a KT7A Raid.
