After several months, two fried motherboards (and one I broke myself), a crappy case, and a little bit of blood, I've finally gotten my Voodoo5 rig working.
After getting my new mobo, I've been having a hell of a time the past couple days trying to get it running right. I just couldn't get through the XP install without BSODs or file copy errors. I finally got it working today after a very bizarre string of faulty and/or incompatible RAM modules; I'm not gonna have fun going back through and trying to figure out what works in the future. For now I'm rocking this 256MB but the intention is to have a gig soon enough.
Valkyrie:
Athlon XP 2400+ Thoroughbred-B
Thermaltake A1998
Asus A7V333
2x512MB Samsung PC2700 DDR
3Dfx Voodoo5 5500 AGP
Sound Blaster Live!
Ethernet card (forget model)
120GB Maxtor
Generic black DVD-ROM
Generic black 1.44MB 3.5" floppy
Thermaltake TR-2 430W
Cooler Master Elite 311
Windows XP Home 32-bit
Now, if I'm not too tired, I get to spend all night setting up drivers and installing games. Whee!
PCs, Macs, old and new... too much stuff.
