Hello everyone, I'm trying to get the above card to work with Windows Whistler beta 2 build 2419, but had no luck so far. The 2.0 drivers from either Videologic or Sigma Designs for Win2000 won't work. I can install the driver and it is recognized as "working properly" in Device manager, but when starting the player app I get the message "MCI Error! - Unknown problem while loading the specified device driver.".

thx for the info...

I know Whistler is beta, and all I was asking was if there's a way to get the H+ card to work under Win XP. nothing more. nothing less. Cool it down a little, guys. thx for the info about modifying INF files... I'll keep looking around... but for what? ;-)

Good for you. I had a via chipset-based athlon system, but returned the mobo (abit ka7) and got a gigabyte (ga-7ixe) with an older irongate chipset, and all of a sudden the system was rock solid right from the start. i know the via chipset is slightly faster, but for me, stability comes first. config: athlon-750 on ga-7ixe 512 mb ram pc100 asus v6600 on nvidia detonator3 v6.18 adaptec 29160n ultra160 scsi intel 82559 10/100 lan hollywood+ dvd mpeg2 decoder (videologic) soundblaster live quantum atlas v 18gigs / u160 / 4mb cache dvd drive pioneer 303s cd rom drive plextor px-40tsi cd toaster teac cd-r55s os: win2k sp1

For 2 days now, my newly acquired Athlon system, which worked great for about a week or so, freezes randomly. I suspected this was due to a lack of cooling or the 235W power supply. So I bought a 300W power supply, 2 additional case cooling fans and a bigger CPU cooler, but it all didn't help. I already have the newest BIOS, drivers etc., and tried to set the RAM clocking to 10/3 instead of 8/2, but it didn't help. Config: ------- Abit KA7 Mobo Athlon/750 512 MB RAM ASUS V6600 Pure GeForce Adaptec 29160N Ultra160 SCSI Intel Pro100+ NIC OS: Win2000 Thanx in advance for any help. Regards

... it's the mobo that's causing the problem; they checked the CPU and memory on different boards and also another CPU on my board. So I'll give it back and get a (hopefully more stable) Asus K7V instead. Thanx anyway.... CU

Thanx, but it got even worse: Now the system won't start at all anymore, so I removed all PCI and the AGP grafx card cards to see whether it is one of the cards causing the problem. Not the case. I tried with different memory and an older PCI grafx card (both of which I KNOW they work fine), but still - blank screen, no vga signal, no beeps, no keyboard blinking, just NOTHING. So I suspected it's gotta be either the mobo or the CPU that's defective. But that's being tested at my local computer store right now... Besides, I laid out 50 bucks for the power supply, so I guess it's a good one... CU

Already tried flipping the 2 memory modules, and also running only one of them. Since the memory is pc100, I run them at 100 MHz.

Yeah, they're all lying trying to tell us the Cold War is over...

I'm desperately trying to get my ASUS 6600 Pure to run unter Win2K. System config: Athlon/750, 512 MB RAM, Abit KA7 Mainboard, Adaptec 29160N SCSI, Intel 100Mbit Ethernet The 4in1 4.22 drivers as well as the AGP updated 4.03 drivers are installed and working. I installed the 5.22, 5.25, 5.30 Detonator2 drivers from NVIDIA; the ASUS drivers cause the system to hang during boot-up. I'm at my wits' end, thus any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanx...

Thanks all, I got it working now. "Standard PC" instead of "ACPI PC" in Device Manager is the key. CU around *DUKE*

The power supply chunks out 235W.

oh BTW, this probably isn't a hardware problem with the card, since it worked great under NT4... Regards

Nope, doesn't work.
