Voodoo 5 - anybody ever get this?


Recommended Posts

I upgraded to Iwill KK266 and a 1.2 gig Tbird after my bx board died. Kept my Voodoo 5 and started playing CM again. Using the last set of "official" V5 drivers I get weird vertical bars passing from right to left across my screen after exiting CM.

The "normal" V5 anamolies are there too - mouse droppings, corrupt text, etc. but nothing I can't deal with.

Of course, the moral of the story is that you should never need to do anything with your computer after playing CM - Just get those 4 hours of sleep and try to get through the work day...

I wonder if adjusting any of your CMOS/BIOS settings may help or not with the problems (at least the vertical/horizontal lines). Unfortunately links to Iwill's tech support seem to be down and I can't find a PDF for this motherboard. You may want to experiment with any AGP settings (multiplier, clock, divider, async/sync, PCI/AGP speed, etc.).

Do you have the VIA drivers for the KT133 chipset installed ?

VIA 4-in-1 v.4.32:

You'll probably want to install the AGP portion of the driver after the Voodoo 5 driver, since the AGP Gart driver may be key here.

If you don't already have them, you may want to try these latest releases from the developer team that was at 3dfx. Click on the Drivers item in the left hand pane and then select your card and OS.
