Are there some known issues with K6-2 CPUs and Voodoo 2 cards?
I can't get 3DMark 2000 to finish on it, always freezes with Voodoo 2 as 3D card on second high detail test (medieval city flythrough). Computer doesn't freeze up, I can alt+f4 out of it, but after that I can't get it to start again until I reboot.
I also tried Unreal and it also freezes after few minutes of castly flyby. I have to ctrl+alt+delete to kill it. I can restart it again, but it will freeze again after few minutes. No visual glitches, audio continues as normal, only video stops/freezes.
Configuration is
PCPartner VIB878DS motherboard
K6-2 500 MHz (same thing with 350 MHz variant)
256 MB SDRAM
ATI Rage Fury Pro 32 MB AGP video card
InnoVision Mighty 3DII Voodoo 2 8MB
ISA sound card
Realtek PCI LAN card
Via PCI SATA controller + 120 GB SSD
Win98, tried both Fastvoodoo 4.6 drivers and latest reference drivers. No difference.
I also tried it on P233 MMX, Lucky Star 5I-TX1 motherboard, 128 MB SDRAM, s3 Virge, ISA sound card, Realtek PCI LAN, VIA PCI SATA + 120 GB SSD, and no problem there. Finished 3DMark 2000 twice with Voodoo 2, Unreal looped for 30 minutes without freezing.
I tried measuring Voodoo 2 temps with IR thermometer and in both cases it went up to 47°C. I also tried swapping PCI slots but no change in behaviour.
