[plug] 3d problem

[Tony Clark]

I had some issues running a SB live card with a KT133a chipset.  Machine 
would lock up running video applications...wierd.  Thats was under linux.  
There have been a few bios upgrades that relate to SB llive issues so it 
probably worth will upgrading to the latest bios from Abit.
