That patch doesn't apply to his 266 though so he really doesn't need it.  In
fact, if he did apply that patch then that might actually cause problems as
there is a warning not to install it unless you have the faster CPU version.

FWIW, I also have a V3 3000 running on an MVP3 Tekram mainboard and using a
K6-2 300 on Win98 with zero problems.  Everything runs great.

I think that he might just simply have a bad card.  He may need to exchange
it.

He could also try checking his CMOS setup for an option to use AGP over PCI
or vise-versa.  He may want to try turning AGP Tex Swap support off or on in
CMOS.  Also check to make sure the card is properly seated,  is the cable
plugged in all the way etc.  Check the simple stuff first.  Just a thought.
