[plug] 3d problem

[Craig Foster]

Have you tried the usual Via/GF2 stuff like AGPx2 as a test or setting
SideBand Addressing off by rebiosing the card?

I know they sound odd, but I went through this for the first GF both on a
BH6 and 300a combo and a p3v4x & 550 combo.
Both are known boards that have problems with GF and above.

(Ask a veteran tech about whether you should buy a p3v4x board and watch
him cough, splutter, and start talking tongues - ie they suck with nVidia
cards)

Regards.
