I am running Win95 and I just upgraded my system to a AMD K6-2 500Mhz. I have put the AMD patch to run at 500Mhz, but my problem is are all the K6-2 chipscome with 3D Now technology? It does not say physically on the chip and I've not seen that there are 2 types made with or without.
All are 3D now, however you may ecounter VXD problems w/ TV Cards
