antareus 0 Posted August 7, 2000 Ugh, this is frustrating. I came from an Asus P2B (440BX) with a P2 333mhz system that *never* crashed. I got a 98 crash every once in a while, but 2000 never crashed. I also used a Voodoo3 in it. I'm not used to tweaking my card as much as I have to now. Sadly, I can't say the same about my current system. Config: Standard PC - ACPI disabled in W2K setup Asus A7V rev. 1.01 M/B (no jumpers) BIOS v1.03 Athlon T-bird 800mhz with heatsink (temp. stays around 91 degrees farenheit) 256MB PC133 Corsair RAM GeForce 2 GTS 32meg (Annihilator 2) 5.22 Detonator drivers Linksys 10/100 PCI card 30.7 IBM Deskstar HD on Ultra ATA/100 controller with Promise W2k drivers Pioneer 16x DVD-ROM SB Live - LiveWare 3 USB Intellimouse Explorer MS Nat. Keyboard Pro Via 4 in 1 4.23 drivers installed AGP at 2x Here is what I have tried: Extra cooling. Latest Det drivers - 5.32. GeForce FAQ site tips Notes: In diablo 2, twice I've gotten CD read errors (event log) that claimed an error occured during a paging operation. Crashes always lock the machine hard, requiring a restart. IRQ 5 is being shared between the Ethernet card and the USB hub. Problem there? I can't change either of the device's IRQ settings. PS/2 mouse keeps being detected even though I don't have one hooked up. System info file: http://www.mattgreen.org/temp/shiva.nfo Also, I'm running Norton Antivirus 2000 in the background.

JediBaron 0 Posted August 10, 2000 Hey bud, your BIOS version is really old Upgrade your BIOS to 1007c - that should help you A LOT! I had all kinds of probs with the old BIOS. Got it all working with the new one though. Share this post Link to post
