Hi,
I recently bought a P75 from eBay which internally looked to be in excellent condition however I'm having a bit of trouble running a few bits of software and I was wondering if anyone had any advice.
It's an Intel Pentium 75, Socket 5, 16Mb of RAM, Ali VGA graphics card and a Sound Blaster AWE32 sound card.
When running Duke Nukem 3D it crashes randomly back to DOS, or locks up completely. At one point it seemed to teleport me out of the map (showing a sort of Hall Of Mirrors effect) then crash shortly afterwards.
Running the demoscene demo "Unreal" by Future Crew seems to have intermittent tearing noises during audio playback.
Some software seems to have distortion when playing back sampled music also.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Also - can anyone suggest any software that I can copy to the hard drive (I don't have any floppies or CD-R media) to perform a memory test?
Thanks,
Ruairi
