Am thinking of buying one of the MSI intigrated video/sound duron motherboards and was wondering about support for the NvidaGforce video the on board sound and the VIA chipset
On an older via board the machine runs like a boat anchor

I am running ASUS KT133 board. It runs fine. I don't use any onboard things except USB.

Warp4 didn't support the NvidaGeforce (4?) chipset out of the box. Even the latest free SDD driver supports only unaccelerated GenGradd (or VBE) Mode, you need the latest SNAP driver from Scitech (www.scitechsoft.com).
Depending on the AC97 Codec the sound may supported, check the chipset then look at www.os2usr.org/os2sound.html for an appropriate driver. The VIA IDE controller should be supported by the latest dani IDE driver.
