Help geforce2 mx400 pci
WinXP
1.1Ghz Celeron 256MB Ram Onboard Intel 810 series graphics (cant disable hardware, only drivers). I am getting seemingly random screen glitches and lockups while using the Geforce2 mx400 in my machine. This usually happens when playing games but sometimes happens other times. I can run a Voodoo5 in the computer without trouble even though winxp doesnt have offcial drivers for it. I have tried the latest drivers and looked everywhere for any sign of a cure. -Stuart --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

did you try the detonator drivers??
Those solved all my problems in XP. "Radbourne" wrote in message ... WinXP 1.1Ghz Celeron 256MB Ram Onboard Intel 810 series graphics (cant disable hardware, only drivers).

Make sure you have gotten rid of all remnants of the drivers and any utilities that were installed
for the 810 and the Voodoo card. None of that stuff will play nice together. Especially Voodoo cards. -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash "Radbourne" wrote in message ...

make sure that your pc has a good cooling system
those PCI cards run much hotter then there AGP counterparts because the cores run at a higher voltage overheating cards often cause glitches and lockups "Biz" wrote in message ...
