Try the VIA PCI Latency Patch.
I have a Geforce4 ti 4200 that is also finicky when used in 98 with the VIA chipset. I think it may be due to it being an 8x card. The compatibly issues are too annoying for me to deal with so I just run my Voodoo 3 instead.
Older versions of the VIA driver are called 4 in 1 and include AGP driver as VXD. The newer drivers are called Hyperion and don't include the VXD driver versions for Windows 98 but instead use the SYS format. The Windows 95 drivers in the Hyperion still use VXD. You may want to try version 4.53 of the Hyperion instead of 4 in 1.
For what it's worth, I always install chipset drivers first after Windows install is complete. Do a restart and go with video, network, USB, sound, etc..
The VIA PCI Latency Patch fixed it! Thank you so much for your suggestion
You're welcome. It really can work wonders for VIA systems.
