ASUS V3400TNT/TV  Graphic Card

Asus P5A + Asus V3400TNT video card, Has anyone...


By Janice - usenet poster


I see lots of bitching going on over the problem of the P5A board's Alladin
V chipset being incompatible with the Riva TNT AGP video chipset. Asus also
puts out a Riva TNT based video card, the V3400TNT. So I'm wondering, does
it have the same problem? Is anyone successfully using an Asus V3400TNT
card on an Asus P5A ?

Regards,

Paul

I use Canopus 2500, which is riva tnt. I have win98, Monster Voodoo 1, P5A,
Bios 1004, and have absolutely no problems. My card is AGP.

No problems here either, P5a, Asus TNT 16meg.

Won't work under NT very well, have to disable 2xAGP support, but in 95 it
flies, even overclocking it.

Dont you have any problems in Win95/98?!
There seem to be many driver problems (after while the screen gets green,
the symbols in the systray are replaced by a brown square, cursor in Word97
dissappears after a while and so on).

No, I dont think that this combination is working very well (yes, I tried
ALL drivers (rev.driver all versions, asus drivers all versions)). If you
want to play OpenGL games you have to manually slow down the 3d-acceleration
or the games hang after minutes. Newer Biosversion are hardly to flash,
because Win98 doesnt want to work after flashing the new bios. New bios
version (1005.006, final 1005) are having problems even with clean Win98
installations. 3 out of four boot-trys are going to hang if you have enabled
AGP Turbo. If this is enabled Opengl games wont work at all.
Funny, right now there appeared two 12 cm large blue squares from left to
right (nice feature ;-)). Sorry, Im afraid Im going to buy me a new
video/mobo-combo.

Excuse me, I dont want to blame anybody (would it help??), but Im building
computers since 10 years, but this crap has never happend to me. I thought
the Riva128drivers were buggy (lost symbols-syndrome etc.) but these
problems make it impossible to work with this devices.
