Problems with S3Virge 325 and voodoo1 on a VIA MVP3 - Shuttle HOT

Hello this is getting really frustrating. I have an S3 Virge 325 working together with an unbraned 3dfx card Voodoo1 on a Shuttle Hot 591P (MVP3 Chipset) running a K6 266Mhz. Well, the thing quite simply does not work. I tried all sorts of drivers upgrades (currently running Dx6 with the latest voodoo1 drivers and latest S3 virge drivers) but no luck. 95% of the times the monitor displays horizontal lines (whatever the app using the 3dfx). Some 5% of the times the thing does work(?!) for very misterious reasons. I feel the problem might be in the combination of the 591P with the Voodoo1 as things were OK before I replaced my motherboard. Anyone having similar problems or with an answer? Thanks. -Alessio -----------== Posted via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==---------- http://www.dejanews.com/ Search, Read, Discuss, or Start Your Own

There is a known bug of the S3 with the Voodoo 1. You have to change the memory address of the S3. There is a program that can do that, do a search on the Web. lomuscio@yahoo.com wrote in message <7297te$6fj$1@nnrp1.dejanews.com>... >Hello > >this is getting really frustrating. > >I have an S3 Virge 325 working together with an unbraned 3dfx card Voodoo1 on >a Shuttle Hot 591P (MVP3 Chipset) running a K6 266Mhz. > >Well, the thing quite simply does not work.
