There's you problem. The K6-2 mobo's are horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!! Had a few actually and they suffer from poor memory bandwidth. The Ali chip set was much better than the VIA SS7. I have a VIA133a for a P3 and it very fast. Don't waste much more time unless you are prepared to replace the K6/SS7 for something new. Sorry but it's actually amazing you got the CLAP to work on that combo as is. SS7 don't work well with nvidia, never did!
