Display garbage with Stealth 4000 AGP
Name: Bryan Young Date: December 4, 1998 at 20:43:14 Pacific
Comment:
I am using the Diamond Stealth 3D 4000 AGP card, Win 98, and an ABIT BX6 motherboard. When in any SVGA mode, garbage pixels appear all over the screen. I have tried the updated Diamond drivers, but the garbage persists as though unrelated to the drivers. It disappears from the desktop when refreshed, but quickly re-accumulates. Is this problem related to the AGP interface? drivers? memory issues? motherboard BIOS? I am out of ideas. Please help.

Hi people! I can't find any updates too for Windows 95 and 98, with a lot of problems on games and system crashes.... I'm very disappointed with DIAMOND AND S3, BECAUSE THERE'S NO "real" SUPPORT to customers and if you visit the sites, you'll find just a lot of stupid list of products but no assistance. I'm giving up form STEALTH, DIAMOND AND S3 RELATED PRODUCTS, that I'm SURE, does not mean QUALITY and RESPECT!
