I did important discovery, moment ago, i try ATI Mach 64 PCI as primary video card and EMS without any parameters is working fine. So there some problem with Geforce 6600 AGP with combination with this board and EMS, card is fine for sure, i used it for years and removed it from other computer.. I tried before multiple AGP and PCIe (Ati X600) cards before os its not only Nvidias problems.
I can also tell that S3 Virge and Trident PCI are not working with this board, at least not when Nvidia G6600 AGP is plugged, but ATI MAch 64 does, so probably they are not working at all..
If is ATI 64 mach as primary card, it doesnt matters, which card is PCI-e slot, i didnt tested AGP, but it would be with high probabality the same. Maybe problem is not if card is PCI or AGP/PCI-E but Video Bios size, because these old cards, have only 32 KB, modern cards have 64KB or more..
Im old goal oriented goatman, i care about facts and freedom, not about egos+prejudices. Hoarding=sickness. If you want respect, gain it by your behavior. I hate stupid SW limits, SW=virtual world, everything should be possible if you have enough raw HW.
