nvidia gforce 256 incompatible with AMD Atlhon ?

Recommended Posts

My Nvidia GForce 256 has some kind of incompatibility with my Amd K7 Athlon 900MHz.

Does anyone know why my O.S doesn't recognize my card ?

I can only get 16 colors !! Ridiculous , isn't ?

I've tryed With Win2K and I got only 16 colors and 640 x 480 .

Please, I Know someone Knows Why this happens.

Share your wisdom with me, please.

Your talking about the Slot A Athlon, right? I've heard of some issues with the Slot A Athlon with a Via KX133 chipset and the original GeForce 256, but it wasn't related to the desktop resolution.

 

This is probably a stupid question, but I'm just covering my bases: Do you have drivers installed? If so, which one?

 

You need this patch, at this link: http://www.amd.com/products/cpg/athlon-duron/amd_win2k_patch.html

This is regardless of the type of Athlon, and it's just for Win2k.

 

Could you list your specs please?
