Schrullenhaft Posted September 23, 2002 Share Posted September 23, 2002 Your GeForce 4 may be a bit much for your motherboard. I'm not sure if the GeForce 4 would have a different AGP Driving Value (CMOS/BIOS Setup). Usually I would have assumed that it would match the previous GeForce 2, but it may not. You usually don't want to screw with the AGP Driving Value since your AGP video may not come up again if you select the wrong value (you'd have to use a PCI video card to change the value again so that AGP would work). Did you install the new driver over the old one or did you uninstall the old driver first ? Or was it necessary to reinstall the video driver ? Which driver version are you using ? I highly suggest not using the 40.41's right now. You may want to get PowerStrip 3.28 or RivaTuner 2.0 (Videocard Utilities > Overclocking and Tweaking > RivaTuner 2.0) and see if any the parameters you can change with these programs helps your stability. I'd also suggest installing (if you haven't already) the VIA 4-in-1 v. 4.43's. If you're running Windows 98 (or possibly ME) then I'd suggest downloading the v. 4.35's instead (further down the page). I've heard some problems with the latest versions of the 4-in-1's with Win9x. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaSCa Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 I was going to post this to the loading issue thread, since I have that problem as well, but this one seems more appropriate I too am suffering from a lock-up problem with the full version of CMBB. The game will run for awhile, but then my machine freezes and I have to reset it. It's been very hot here in Sacramento, so I'm hoping this is just a heat issue. I will try the driver suggestions this afternoon, after I get home from the salt mines.

Schrullenhaft Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 CaSCa - which particular FIC motherboard do you have and have you installed the chipset drivers for it ? How has CMBO played on this computer ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
