Hi!

I have a pretty old system, and wanna go in for a major overhaul. One of the
components in my wish-list is a 32MB Riva TNT2 AGP card. Now I actually
don't know whether my PC will support it or not, so I lugged my box to my
friend's place, and connected his Riva TNT2 to my AGP slot, after removing
my PCI display card of course. Now he didn't have the drivers, so when I
started the PC, I got 16 color display at 640 resolution, and the colours
were a little wierd.... but later, when I put my own display card at 16
colours and 640 res, it gave similar effects.

Now, according to my (limited) knowledge, a card which is not supported will
not even let your PC start. So I feel it supports the card. But I still need
more advice to be sure. What do u feel, will it support or not?

BTW, my PC is 300A Celeron with A-Trend ATC6130 mainboard (66 Mhz, Award
bios, 440 LX chipset

PLEASE REPLY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE IN EMAIL (THIS IS REALLY URGENT, I HAVE TO

Thanx in advance
