Did the system boot up (maybe with windows start sound)? Witch OS do you use (i have win98Se installed)? The nvs 280 seems to be a FX5200 for professional working like Cad on two monitors at the same time. I put the Matrox G200 back in, and was able to install the Nvidia card using the 56.64 driver …

So I suggest that the card should not have a higher pci version than 2.1 ?

If the card is faster like the Ati 7000-9000 series it doesn't matter either. A GF2 or 4 would be great but finding one (for example Ebay) is very difficult and the price is very high. I am looking for one witch does not cost more than 30€ (and we don't know if the card is broken) . That's why I …

I have changed now to 2,2 Volts- no overheating beeps anymore. Thank you!! =) I don't know why but CPU-Z vintage edition shows now a better performance than before....could the overvoltage cause the performance issue?

Thanks for the reply =) Do you have a picture from your socket? I have a 90mmx90 Fan what could be used but is it possible for the Heatsink to fit on this socket? I am not sure if the capacitors next to the Socket could touch the Heatsink.

I have a K6-2 400 AFQ in the GA 586TX3. Searched a few times here but it seems to be impossible to read out the temps of this CPU (Motherboard Monitor hungs up the system trying to click on "sensors" including overheat beeping). Only Hwinfo for dos runs but also does not show temps Also I want to …

Who owns that Motherboard and can tell me witch pci graphics runs without problems? It has to be faster than my Matrox Mystique/Voodoo1 combo. The FX5500 pci didn't work so I had to send it back.

Before i updated my Bios to get a K6-2 400 running in my 430tx board i thought that I can only put a jumper on my 80gb hdd as 30gb so my system would finally recognize it. Then I heard about the Promise Fastrack controller wich can recognize the full size and speed up the data rate. (Depending on …

In the end, getting an AGP capable board and selling the one you have might be both easier and cheaper. Ok then i search for a AGP supported Board. Currently the GA 586TX 3 seems to be Baby AT formfactor And I remember that 20 years ago I had a computer With K6 2 333 MHz on ALi Aladin chipset and a …
