I think it doesn't mean Golden Sample here, but GS as a model with NV42 GPU (110nm, 12pp, 5vs). The older NV41 was 130nm and used in the 6800. Both for PCI-E natively - for AGP was needed HSI bridge, natively for AGP was GPU NV40 (130nm, 16pp, 6vs). But I could be wrong. now i know why i couldn't …

Alright, so I ended up getting the card working somewhat. After continual frustration, I tried using the patch from the late rloew to see if the card would work, and it did!

It could very well be in the bios but hidden and need to enable or unhide it with an official bios unlocking and edit tools to enable your desired feature. What I am suggesting requires you to dump your bios into a file to edit the menu strings then flash it. oem's can be silly there are many bios …
Re: Compaq EP650 with a Pentium III 700 MHz?
Posted on 2022-07-11, 12:06
