    Decoders slow down performance

    Here's the thing. I recently installed win98. Usually, I immediately install all the other software, like Divx decoders, windows media player 9 and all kinds of other things. This time, I only installed directx9 and video card and chipset drivers. I ran a direct3d test with directdiagnostics and...

    geforce 4 mx 440 sucky performance?

    I recently got a geforce 4 mx440 128MB DDR and although the performance is good, it is not what I would have expected from a DDR card. I mean, I can't even put on anti-aliasing with old games like deus ex and mohaa, without them starting to drag. The performance isn's that bad with AA2X, but...

    PC wont Boot after installing Geforce 2

    One thing some people seem to overlook is that an AGP card has to be pushed completely into the slot. If you can still see the copper contacts of the card then it isn't in deep enough and the contacts short eachother out. If you can't push it in deeper, then the bracket is probably pressing...

    I think my motherboard is stuffed. If I do the above fix, I am not able to start XP in anything but safe mode again, even when I disable the setting again with Rivatuner. I recently got a Geforce 4 mx440 and it still gives exactly the same problem and a new one. Now my direct3d is completely...

    I am having a tough time finding out whether my motherboard, my screen card or drivers don't support these features: Fast Writes Sideband Addressing AGP texture acceleration The screencard is a Geforce 2 mx200 32M The operating system is windows XP. I have tried microsofts generic drivers for...

    AGP Texture Acceleration in DirectX8.2(final release)

    The problem is related to the ali chipset and not the size of the video memory. A friend of mine has a viatech chipset and a GF 2 MX400 64M. His AGP texture acceleration is enabled. But I have the ali 1647 chipset and mine isn't enabled. Two things you can try: Play with your AGP aperture size...

    ECS K7AMA

    I have the same motherboard and have never had this problem. It sounds to me like either a HDD or memory problem. But you say you already checked the HDD. Check your memory cas latency and performance in the bios. Ultra and Ultra 2 can give problems. Also check that you are not using pc100...
