''Cpu frequency'' should be changed from 100 tom 133 in that same bios section. If that cannot be changed maybe there is a jumper for 133mhz fsb operation on the board somewhere?

Thanx, i will look into that and see how it goes!
Re: Need help identifying a Geforce2 GTS Pro

Yeah it is a weird one. It is a real gts/pro as it sits right in the middle when it comes to memory speed and clockspeeds of the gpu are 200mhz for both and they both use the gts core. It says pro at post and it has a stamp on the pcb that says ''pro'' so it is at best a downclocked pro 🤣

Are there any software tools to flash it? Maybe by using another pci graphics card? I have the same problem here: a 2200 card and it doesn't even have the bios chip anymore so i need to flash another one. As mentioned. I have EEPROMS and can flash them. I know, thank you, but that was not the …

Need help with Diamond Edge 3D
Posted on 2017-10-14, 17:41
I found a Diamond Edge 3D 2200 at the scrapper today and unfortunately it is missing it's bios chip and has damage (see pictures). I probably atleast needs a bios to get any display from it but i assume i can use it without the 3 audio jacks? They are gone beyond repair, maybe i will solder on some …

Dont know what happened but I got lot of gold this month ... Very nice - extra points for such an extravagant cooler on a lovely Pentium60. No no no! Points off for beeing so lazy! :lol: I use the exact same strategy: take a big heavy cooler and let it sit on top (loose) so it cools more than …

Try agp driver from Ali / Uli integrated driver package 2.13 , worked the absolute best for me. I used it together with some ali utility to set it to ''turbo mode''

I think any Geforce is safe for 1,5v operation.

Re: voodoo 2 sli with pentium 4 or pentium D?
Posted on 2017-09-25, 17:31
I think the theory is pretty simple: they can overheat because with such fast cpu's you push the cards into 100% load ALL the time. And that would be a task even for a more modern graphics card that is passively cooled. And voodoo2 (most of them) do not even have a heatsink.... AND sli is 2 times …

Never heard of that one before? Not a single picture of it on the internet is also a little strange. No mentioning of it on the Dodge Grage site (Gary Donovan's) which had an Amazing 3dfx collection and also Nitrox Infinity had never heard of it (he had a very big collection of 200+ cards himself). …

Like what the others said: Your fastest option for unning agp voodoo cards is either a p4 board based on a SiS chipset (no intel p4 board supports agp 3,3v cards) or an Athlon XP board based on max. The Via KT333 chipset (Via Kt400 and higher and Nforce/Nforce2 boards do NOT support agp 3,3v cards). …

Nice job, you're getting up there! But it will get harder and harder to sqeeze the last points out of the system :lol: You're still 300 points off of my score and a 550 points of skalabala (amazing score). Feel free ofcourse to try win95, i don't think it will be faster but i might be wrong. Very …

I've managed to squeeze 4230 from 3dmark 2000 with my k63+@550 and gf3ti200@240-430. Motherboard is an Epox EP-MVP3G5. I used Rivatuner to turn on sideband addressing and to get the overclocks. The 7.76 driver is definitely a bit faster than 7.58 with this setup. I also downgraded dx9 to dx8a which …

If you are testing on a test setup without a case: please hold the card up straight when testing. It sounds silly maybe but i have tested a couple of v3 pci cards that would not post when sitting loose in the pci slot but when i held it straight up and applied a little pressure they worked fine. …

Thought I scored a Quadro4 900 XGL for $15 shipped. But no display on boot up, and the fan doesn't work either. Easy come, easy go. IMG_0648.JPG had this a lot. It seems very hard to find a working ti4600 (Quadro or Geforce). It took me quite a few cards until i finally found a working one. Most of …
Re: Tillamook 266MHz and working L2 cache?
Posted on 2017-09-15, 20:34
Had a mixup: it was an Asus TX97-XE that showed 2.5 volt. But it also shows 2.5v vcore while i set it at 1.9v so i think it is a reading error, as the cpu temp also is an error showing 1.0 Celsius. With a normal mmx on the board it shows the right vcore (2.8) and the right 3,3v and also the temp is …

As far as I understand now it is socket 7 but with some alterations, hence the problems with getting the cache working and if I am correct I found somewhere on a german forum info that voltages would be different too. However there must be a way to get this working in atleast some desktop …
