Thanks for the info. Now it's working. I've changed to safety mode and set 640x480 @256 colors. Then it was correctly booting without this message.
"Outside the range" - Matrox Millenium
Posted on 2020-09-03, 04:38
I have a strange message when i am installing the drivers of a Matrox Millenium on a Win95 platform: "Außerhalb des Bereichs" - called in german that means: "Outside the range" What does it means? Cause after driver install and reboot, and after the Win95 boot logo, the screen remains black... and …

Yes,i agree this is really a beautiful case. The only thing is... it's some kind of upgaded with parts, non-period correct, but this is a matter of taste. Here are the original specs: Pentium 75 / 90 / 100 , 8 MB RAM, 540MB or 1000MB IDE HDD, 1MB DRAM PCI VGA. MSDOS 6.22 + Windows for Workgroups

Very nice configuration! I like your Antec. How is the overall noise? I assume the 10000 rpm raptor is the inside the top 3 of all audible part, isn't?
Re: P III vs P4

I doubt that a 500MHz PIII outperform a P4 1.3GHz. A 1Ghz P4 never exists. May somebody can provide some tests / benchmarks?
P200mmx @233 - every model?
Posted on 2020-08-26, 03:18
Does every P200 MMX run at 233 MHz? Or there are samples which refuse the 233MHz, does somebody has made some tests? If it's the case, this would mean also that every P200 MMX has a unlocked multi...?

As a result you can say PIII-S cpu is faster... But with 22% - 24% speed increase in your 3d mark benches, it is very result 😀 I have also a tualeron, but the smallest one, the 1000A. I have a clock range of 667MHz to 1.4GHz. Higher than 140 fsb i would not go...

Picky GF2 GTS ???

I have a Geforce 2 GTS which is not running on a socket A mainboard (VIA KT 133 chipset). It gives some beep and is not booting. But instead .... inside my SS7 board (VIA MVP3 chipset), it's booting. I have no idea why it is so picky .... 🙁

Also 3000+ has higher multiplier than 3200+, which should mean more overclocking potential, we'll see ;) I think a higher multi is relevant only if your multi is fixed, and you have: no mainboard overclocking options not closed L1 bridges and a cpu built after CW43 of year '03 Otherwise, if you …

Does anyone have/know of a system I can use for reference?

And from this starting point 6600 nonGT, please see for example the gap to a 6600 GT at FarCry and UT2004 benchmarks.

The issue is actually a bit more pronounced than that, in fact. I just checked and Battlefront was running in 1024x768 and KOTOR2 in 800x600, heh. I should clarify that KOTOR2 and Battlefront are my end-of-line games when it comes to usage. I planned the build knowing I would not be playing …

Great built ! +++ year 2000 +++ Back in the day, i've upgraded from V3-2000 to Geforce 256 DDR. Running with a Celeron mendocino on BX440 platform. A Pioneer slot-in DVD drive was installed but i don't remember the model number. Sadly i don't have it anymore.

Why the 5,25" drive is built into the PIII-500 ? Inside your 486 it would be much more period correct... Or you want to upgrade your 486 with a further 5,25" drive anyway 😀
