I have read that there can be potential problems with using the Riva TNT chipset video cards with super 7 boards. I have also read that some boards have no problem.

Has anyone had problems with thier Riva TNT and super 7 boards??? If so, post; please mail to me also.

Thanks

Yes,it`s seems I have some problems with a
Creativ Graphic Blaster RIVA TNT.
I have an Epox MVP3-eM motherboard (super 7)
and the problem is that I can not run 3DS Max 2.5 in OpenGL mode (system hang up) and when
I run it in Direct3D mode,the look of the textures is not very good (it can be seen the
poligons - the image is not smouth)
Do you have similar problems or do you now
how could I fix mine ?

I got a riva Asus Riva TNT vt3400 and installing it on my system ( Pentium II 350 , PCChips M726 Motherboard with Ali chipset 64 meg ram etc.etc.) cause the system to HANG.
This happens 1-10 minutes after starting windows98. Ive tried new drivers , flash bios and any other fix i can get hold of without luck. If youve heard about a problem like this or if you know how to fix it please let me know ?

Thanks

sorry about this , my first posts email is wrong to send email please use this one

I am having trouble installing my winfast 3d s320II pro 32 riva tnt chipset video card in my matsonic MS6260s Alladin V 100MHZ mainboard.
Everytime i use my video card the system hangs up and sometimes it displays errors of
somesort...
I tried many updated bios and agp garth driver but still it does not work!
If you have any solution about my problem please email me at cuevas@amanet.net
(I need an answer badly and immediately)

I have a creative riva tnt on a ali alladen board and also get system hangs in opengl games, like all the quakes crash at random or just hang, but sometimes they do recover after about 15 secs.
If've tried alot to get it fixed but no luck so now i'm trying a solution sujested a:
some tnt wed site

I have an Asus P5A super 7 with an ALi Aladdin V chipset. I just bought a Viper 770 Ultra, and have had many hangups since. Some games work, some crash.

From what Ive read, ALi and TNT have problems working together. So far there are no fixes, even after all new drivers and bios updated.

There only true fix Ive heard of is buying
a Pentium($$$) or a MVP chipset based board.
This isnt what I had in mind, but so far it seems the only choice.

Please email me if you have new information.

Yes. I have an Ali Aladin IV chipset on my motherboard and a Creative Riva TNT. When I install the riva I can only get 640x480 with 16 colors. I've tried every update known to man but nothing is working.

I have just installed a Creative Labs TNT2 Ultra 32Mb in my system which has an Asus P5A Socket 7 motherboard, and have experienced severe problems including system lockups and coloured boxes appearing all over the place.

I think that I may have a solution, but i havn't tried it yet (I only found out today, and I am still at work!!)

If you goto
http://www.ali.com.tw/eng/support/driver.htm

and download the new AGP drivers (1.6) there is an acrobat and a text file in the ZIP file which claim that they solve some problems with the TNT chipset. I don't know whether this includes the TNT2 or not, but it must be worth a try.

I got home last night and tried the AGP drivers I mentioned in the previous post and installed them.

It worked...... (well sort of)

but, I found that if I went to the system control panel and selected 'Display adapter' and then remove, then in the following order I did this

1)installed v1.5 of the AGP drivers
2)reboot
3)when Win98 finds the card, I clicked cancel
so it kept it as a generic PCI card
4)installed v1.6 of the AGP drivers
5)finnaly the graphic card drivers

it worked, well sort of.... The windows OGL screen savers still dont work, nor does the shareware game DirtBike Racer, but Half Life/TFC/Kingpin all work now in OpenGL mode.
I no longer get all the coloured boxes taking over the screen as before and it all seems pretty fast too.

I hope this is helpfull so somebody out there, feel free to mail me and ask any questions about what I did... (It must have been a fluke)

Cheers

Andy....

HOW TO GET A TNT2 CARD WORKING ON AN ASUS P5A MOTHERBOARD!!!!!!!

Howdy folks, me again!

Thats it, I have finnaly finished with errors and system lockups that I have been experiencing with my Creative Labe TNT2 Ultra (AGP) and the chipset on my motherboard (Aladin V).

Heres what you have to do if you are having the same problems as I was.

Download the AGP Drivers V1.6 from www.ali.com.tw and install them, the download the latest Detonator drivers from the NVidia web site and hey presto, it worked first time. All OpenGL applications/games/screensavavers work without a hitch, Viper Racing runs at 1024*768 at over 55 frames a second, Half Life and Kingpin work really fast too, I spent last night playing them (using the TV Output option) an a 28" TV. Wow, you really have to try that, it really is quite something.

Anyway, I hope this help somebody, as I know what a pain in the arse this card has been.

Feel free to mail me to let me know if this helped you and how you got on with the problem.....

Cheers

Andy

Ahh... I got those exact drivers and presto! My Viper 770 now works like a dream. Only one thing tho... I had to disable Turbo AGP option in the ALi-V bios/chipset settings, or else a game will crash in 5 or so minutes of playing. Other than that everything is fixed. Time to play some more Quake3Arena. :)

Cool, glad it worked...

Andy

Im having the same problems - got a ELSA Erasor III LT card - TNT2 chip on board.

And a Asus P5A-B motherboard.

I got so fed up with trying to giggle with teh drivers and so on - nearly gave it back but gave a last search of the web to see if anyone else is having the problem.

Im following what REpsonse 10 above says - god , I hope it works - the card is a cool one and reasonably priced so i hope it works -

if it doesnt than only thing left to try is turn ogg AGP turbo mode in the bios and thats all.

will email back if it works !!

thanks for the help on this.
cheers,
Ash

Viper 550 AGP in a GA-5AX rev. 4.1 (Gigabyte with ALI V chipset). OpenGL sux. Crash boxes and program freezes. Windows is left intact and I can rerun OpenGL programs.

ALSO, IF ANYONE GETS RANDOM FREEZING IN WINDOWS HERE IS YOUR ANSWER.

Do *NOT* let your TNT card share its IRQ with another device. Free up some IRQs to stop it sharing (disable some coms and pars).

This does not affect OpenGL problems at ALL!
They are two separate problems. If you get random freezing (COMPLETE freezing in Windows) then take my advice.

E-Mail me with more info, fixes or failure/success.

Howdy folks

Okay, here is a small update for the TNT2(u) & ALi V (Aladdin) chipset mobo's

To get it running, you need the following :-

1) Detonator drivers (2.08 or above)
or manufacturors drivers based on above
2) AGP drivers 1.65e or above
www.ali.com.tw
3) access to your mobo BIOS
usually pressing DEL on bootup does this
4) Windows 98/98 SE
Windows 95 has no AGP support so the
card will be treated as a PCI card
5) All the latest BIOS upgrades for your mobo
& graphics card
Right-e-o here we go then.

1) Install Windows 98/98 SE
if you have already installed it, make
sure that ALL leftovers from your old
graphic card are deleted. unfortunatly
this include the Registry, so caution is
advised.
2) open the display properties and change
the display card to 'standard PCI VGA
adapter'
3) Install the AGP drivers
4) If you have them, install Bus Mastering
Drivers.....
5) Restart Machine
6) Install Detonator drivers
7) restart Machine
8) Enter BIOS
9) change the following
*ALL* shadowing disabled
*ALL* caching disabled
disable PCI pallete snoop
Turbo AGP disabled esp. if your FSB is
100Mhz. Very few AGP cards are built to
run at this speed, most, if not all are
set for 66Mhz.
10)Try *not* to over clock anything in your
system, this is known to cause problems
11)Reboot your machine
12)Hopefully play any OpenGL/D3d games
13)If this doesn't work, try underclocking
your card through the display properties
(if your drivers support it)

if you are still having problems, look in the registry, under Nvidia, and somewhere in there there should be a key called Super7compatability, or something like that. Change the value from 0 to 1 and reboot. If that doesn't work, try changing it from 1 to 2.

Take a look at the Creative Labs newsgroups. I regulary visit it, and people there have stacks of information on subjects such as this.
Feel free to mail me with your results or corrections to this post.

Right then, I'm off to finish my work.

Seezyalater.

I am having problems getting my Creative Riva TNT and my Creative Sound Blaster Live cards working on a Gigabyte GA-5AA ALi Aladdin V AGPset Motherboard. My CPU is an AMD K62500MHz. Basically When I install windows all goes well until I load up th SB Live drivers then I getting freezing, inability to install games like Half-Life (install gets to 15% then freezes). If I deactivate my SB driver in device manager most of these problems go away apart from the install porblem. Can anyone help?

Please send replies to my mail address,

Many Thanks in advance,

John Fox

Hi Guys,

well, I can see that I'm not the only guy that has problems with a TNT2 and an Ali Aladdin V Mobo.
I fixed the problem under Win 98 but now I'm looking for a solution for WinNt 4.0 and Win 2000. On both operating systems the system locks up when booting. Unfortunately the AGP driver from Ali (1.65e) doesn't work under those OS...

Please Help !!!

Thanks

I have Acorp ali5m61 mainboard with K6-III/400 mhz installed, and a Riva TNT
I use latest detonator drivers, but anyway i cannot play Unreal tournament neither in D3D mode nor Opengl mode... same problems with other games... all them sometimes lock up, or there is error displayed.... and detonator 3.53 seems very slow... Someone please help !!!

I have ASUS 3400 and I couldn't get it to work with NT4.0 or windows2000.

This is how I got windows to boot:

With NT4.0: you should get latest sp.
Boot with VGA option and install sp5 or newer.

With W2k: Boot with VGA (during boot press F8) and get drivers from www.nvidia.com

Fortunately I can't get w2k to work with any of my games. I get that stupid bluescreen.

I've got an ALi-Board and a TNT2 Vanta, with newest drivers everything works, but I've got a DAMN bad performance in Quake3 and Need For Speed, Driver can't be driven - less than 10 frames per seconds, that really sucks ! I don't know why, because TNT2s are well known as high performance cards ! Anyone having an idea ?

I've got the solution to all of your guy's problem's just like that, what you would do is get the LATEST DRIVERS and patch files from you motherboard manufacturer's and install them. Also get the latest video display and AGP driver from NVDIA, and by the way keep updating as much as you could it could prevent any FUTURE PROBLEMS

I have an ASUS p5a-b socket 7 board w/CL TNT2 Ultra.

Win2k runs fine for 2d, but any d3d/ogl/video gives me the KMODE_Exception not handled blue screen.
tried all bios/driver combinations... anyone found a solution yet?

I also had Asus P5a and a Vipper V770 U
And i also had random hangups.

To solve this buy a Athlon!!

no more hangups!!

Hi!
Iīve tried the Asus P5AB and the MSI 1569
with a Creative Riva TNT. No way to make them
work. Both Boards with newest BIOS.
My only Solution: back to Matrox!
But what about the new Chipset in Cooperation of ALI and NVIDIA? Who on Earth is going to buy such a Bug?

I'm having problems with MoBo Biostar with Ali chipset and Cretive's TNT2 Vanta.
And you are going to laught but i cannot reach www.ali.com.tw ??????
Does someone know another address? Thanks

I got the same problem with the nvidia vanta m64 card on my soltek sl-65fv+ motherboard. Random lockups in games and in windows. Can I use the ali 1.65 driver with my motherboard?

I have a super7 board, it's the FIC VA 503+ with the VIA chipset and the updated bios. 64 megs of 50ns EDO ram. Viper V550 AGP video card. Detonator 3.6.8 drivers. No problemos. I'll be glad to respond to any questions and share the details of my setups with you.

I have a GA-5AA Ali Aladdin V AGPset Gigabyte Motherboard AMD K6-2 400mhz and a Nvidia Riva TNT2 Model 64 Video Card.
My system Hangs up in Internet Explorer And Solitare Y2 and some other programs.To stop this I go to Display, Settings, Advanced, Performance and adjust Hardware Performace to None that stops it hanging up and when we play games we put it back to Full. This has got us out of trouble so far.

Hy Folks,

I have a MS 6260S Ali Aladdin V AGP Motherboard,an AMD K6 450mhz and a Nvidia TNT2 Model 64 Video Card.

After installed the 1.65e AGP driver on windows 98, it works sometimes more than 5 minutes!! (before it was less than 30s)

On NT only the Vga driver works!! so 800*600*16 color. With the nvidia driver, I have a BLACK screen!! And of course, even with the vga drivers I have a Hang one per hour.

Does anyone have a solution? I read all the former answers and I tried all of them. None of them worked. But I don't find the famous AGP turbo option and I don't update the video adapter bios (I don't find update).

I have a MS 6260S Ali Aladdin V AGP Motherboard,an AMD K6 450mhz and a Viper 770.

On NT and W2K only the Vga driver works!! so 800*600*16 color. With the nvidia driver and any of the Viper 770 drivers, I have a BLACK screen!! And of course, even with the vga drivers I have a Hang every now and again.

Windows 95/98 have no problems.

I have tried updating the BIOS on the motherboard but I have yet to find any BIOS updates for the video adapter. If anyone knows of a solution that would be great.

I have a Diamond Viper V770 AGP (based on the TNT2 set) and a Gigabyte GA-5AA Mainboard. My system has an AMD K6-2 550 Mhz processor.
I had been experiencing the same problems as described above. I tried everything from drivers to bios settings to different cooling options. I even tried different memory with no luck. Then I happened to stumble on a solution (as posted above)
First Download the latest AGP drivers for your Mainboard: ftp://ftp.acerlabs.com/pub/agp168e.exe

Then get the latest Detonator drivers from Nvidia's web site.
(Note: make sure you have no previous AGP mainboard drivers and no previous Video card drivers other than Standard PCI VGA)

Install the AGP drivers then install the video card drivers and reboot.

This should fix most problems. In my case it wasn't solved completely until I UNDERCLOCKED my processor down to 500 Mhz. THis solved my problem and I have yet to have a lockup, crash, or failure (except in games that do'nt support my card)

I have also found that if you DISABLE your INTERNAL CACHE in your BIOS you'll not get the errors and freezes but it makes winblowze run like win 95 on a p166.

I hope this info helps some of ya get your boxes up and running. and always remember to stay kewl.(and sorry it's so LONG)

As an update to my problem I've found a solution and it's working perfectly now. I had trouble with games running direct 3d with AGP enabled in direct x 7.0. The game would boot then suddenly freeze or crash very soon. I tried all the drivers I could think of but I happen to stumble upon a solution. I got the NVIDIA reference drivers and installed them. Then I downloaded the latest drivers from my card manufacturer and installed them OVER THE EXISTING DRIVERS. when asked if I want to keep the newer files I clicked no. Now I'm playing like a madman and enjoying every minute of my lovely little box. I hope this helps someone out there with this problem

Im using Redfox Aladdin V Mobo ant Riva Tnt2 M64,from what Ive heared, ALi and TNT have problems working together. I have installed the AGP 1.68 under Win2K but the problem still exist. Do I still need to install the AGP 1.5 (I think it doesnt support Win2K)and Detonator 2 from Nvidia.

I knew I couldn't be the only one having this problem. I've been screwing with this problem for months. I have an ASUS P5A-B Super Socket 7 motherboard and a AMDK62 350 Mhz CPU. I originally had one of the first 16 Mb Viper 770's from Diamond. I preordered it. It would hand up ONLY when using Internet Explorer and then ONLY when I would either scrool the screen or click the mouse on something. It would manifest itself by just freezing or more often, if I were scrolling it would just keep scrolling and never stop. Only way out was a cold boot. I talked to Diamond tech support and they sent me a 32 Mb 770 Ultra as a replacement. Did exactly the same thing, right out of the box. Now I knew the problem was elsewhere. Not long afterward my power supply monitor alarmed with a low +12 Volt warning. It was down to about 9 volts. Went and got a new power supply. Thought this might have been the problem, it wasn't. Still did it.

Talked to Diamond again and we went through the whole BIOS settings thing... cautioned to not share an IRQ with anything else. Has anyone tried to NOT share and IRQ with a video card. PCI Steering ALWAYS wants to share an IRQ... By the way, I have all the latest driver s--- on my PC, NVidia detonators, ALI updates, BIOS flashed to the latest revision etc. so don't even bring it up!

Did find, based on another suggestion from another board. Disable the Video Cache and the Video Shadowing in the BIOS. This helped in that now when it breaks it doesn't just continually scroll the screen, it just hangs and nothing works until you cold boot. But it doesn't go crazy with the scrolling...

I finally gave up on the damn thing and ordered a new ASUS A7V motherboard and AMD 700 MHz Duron processor. The problems aren't with the Viper 770, its in the freaking motherboard/ALI chipset. The Diamond support guy kind of hinted at it whenever I talked to him... "you know that's a pretty old motherboard..." OK, OK I took the hint. I'll let you know how this all works out, I should have it running by this weekend. There is no way I was going to let this continue, its extremely frustrating knowing that if you scroll too much your system is going to hang up. How pathetic!

If youre having trouble with ANY video card, mainboard, or other piece of hardware you may want to try this!
Go to www.tweak3d.com
There they have all the tweaks and answers to any support question you can imagine!!! TRY IT OUT!!! It saved me with my new geforce!

Boy did I ever... ASUS P5A-B and AMDK62-350. The Diamond Viper 770 Ultra (TNT2) would hang ALL the time. Sometimes 5 minutes sometimes 2 hours, but it would always do it. All you can do is reboot. Have tried every driver/tip/recommendation/tech support/replacement card etc. No way to fix it, yet it worked fine with my Viper 330. Finally gave up and got a new motherboard. A7V with a Duron 700. Problem went away.

ive got a tnt2 riva m64 and a fic via va503+ motherboard and it crashes all the time, especially when I go on the internet . I have to put in a pooy super vga card to do anything at all really. when it works its amazing but constant hangups and grief are just gettin on my nerves. Any Help Please im desperate!!!!

try going to this address. http://www.tweak3d.net/tweak/rivatnt/
Read the info you find there and it whould help clear up all your troubles. ALso check out the geforce tweak guid too. It can help. Just because it says "tweak" doesn't mean overclocking. It also means increasing stability and compatibility so... check it out. let me know if it helps you.

Ben al dagen bezig het volgende op te lossen,hopelijk kunnen jullie helpen.

Heb een
asus v3400 agp videokaart
asus p5a (socket7) moederbord
amdk2-500
128 mb intern
OS = windows 2000 pro

Zo nu en dan krijg ik de beruchte stop errors met bijbehorende blauwe schermen. KMODE exeption etc waarbij hij aangeeft dat de displaydriver de oorzaak is. Heb echter allernieuwste drivers van zowel asus als nvidia geprobeerd. Tevens laatste ali driver etc etc...

Het stomme is dat alle opengl functies perfect werken (quake draait supersnel).

Begin na al het getest steeds meer het idee te krijgen dat de boel vastloopt als ik internet explorer (of outlook) 5.5 gebruik. Hij stopt bijna altijd in deze programma's. Soms moet ik na zo'n stop error een paar keer opnieuw booten omdat hij direct tijdens het opstarten weer de mist ingaat.

Wie heeft raad of heeft dezelfde problemen???

Groeten

R.J.

Heb trouwens tweak3d al gelezen, niets hielp!!

Does anyone has a clue where to find de setup programs to NVDIA Riva TNT 64? Iīm kind of stuck without it. Many Thanks.

Setup program as in the thing to install the drivers? You don't need one.
just download the drivers and unzip them to a folder (preferrably on the desktop in a folder called video)then go to the following:
Start
settings
control panel
display
settings tab
advanced
adapter
then click change adapter.
check "display a list of drivers in a specific location"
then search in the directory where you unzipped the drivers.
select your card and there you go.
you can download the nvidia drivers at www.nvidia.com/drivers

HOpe that helps.

i have a FIC mb with the via mvp3 chipset. i have a PCI 32 meg tnt2 m64. 192 megs of ram. Vortex 2 soundcard. When tryin to use openGL games it locks my system up. I also got the amd k-6-2 500 mhz chip. Although. When i had the same card installed on my k-6-2 300 from HP that had an SiS chipset(i believe) it worked excellent. i got bout 30 fps in 1024x768 in 16 bit color in openGL mode. Then i upgraded and wallah. No more good looking colors. i have been to all the tweak sites and flashed my bios and still no go. i have tryed every driver i can think of as well and disableing recommended settings in the bios...i saw the agp fix but is there a pci fix?......any help would be greatly appreiciated and any Q's i can help with will be answred. thnx

I'm having a small problem with my Nvidia TNT2 graphics card. Every time i power up my computer there is an Error message saying "nvclock dll error", i don't why it saying this do i need some sort of patch for the graphics card?. Do i need a DLL file??, please reply mail me

Thanks

I have an Asus P5A bios 1007A with a Cardexpert TNT2 Pro, K6-2 500MHz, and a 3dfx Voodoo 2...no problems whatsoever,except Win2k simply reboots after a while...I like Millenium anyway

Darren,
If youre using an overclocking utility then it's searching for the DLL to set the clock speed. Otherwise I'd recommend uninstalling your graphics card and using the latest NVIDIA reference drivers (get the latest detonator 3 set at http://www.nvidia.com/drivers )
If that doesn't fix it feel free to e-mail me at serath@hotmail.com and I'll be glad to work on it with you.

I have a Riva TNT2 with a mother Epox Mvp3, AMD k62-450Mhz. I can`t work with my Tv card:
Leadtek Winfast TV 2000. I havenīt a solution.
Please, help me!!
Thanks!!

I used several techs to try and get my Viper 770 ultra to work, and post all hope with the new det. 3 drivers, as I was getting less performance and it keeped on craching after about 2 minits. After reinstalling windows 98se and all the drivers (including the 169e agp drivers), it ran much quicker than I have ever had it runnnig, but after about 5 min it crachs...well Im open for help. I am trying a 300W power suppy tomorrow, to see if it is a power drain problem from the card.

Hello. I have Asus P5A motherboard and Creative GraphicsBlaster Riva TNT 16MB.
My problem is when trying to install Win2k it says my videocard and mainboard are incompatible, so I tried another videocard and the same stuff came. Anyone have solution for me? :) Thanks.

I have similar problems as descibed with my ASUS PB2 Mainboard and a riva tnt 2 value edition ! My system freezes when I run some 3d games using direct 3d ! Will try the hints below and pray ! Maybe someone else had problems with the same configuration ?
Thankz for letting me use your experience

For Above...I had the same problems with the Riva TNT 2, Diamond Vipper 770 Ultra with the Gigabyte GA-5AX. But this problem was only the detinator 3 drivers. So at the mo, I am using the vipper drivers from diamond, antil I find the problem with the faster drivers (detinator 3). Try using the origanal drivers or new drivers from the manufacture, if your not doing that already.

My Viper 770 nonultra 32meg 2XAGP has NOT worked properly since I installed it on the PC I built
(K6-III/450, 128MB PC100 RAM; FIC PA-2013 motherboard with VIA MVP3 chipset; 300 watt power supply
I have a Monster 300 sound card and a D-Link Ethernet card for my cable modem.
I get a frozen mouse and general RANDOM system lockups when using my Web browsers:
(Mostly I.E.5.0, but also Netscape 4.7)
I have to do a reboot each time, and sometimes it hangs up right on the desktop.
I cannot even load most 3D games (Ground Control, Worms, Jane's F/A-18, Delta Force, etc., etc,.), but those that do load, never get
past the starting screen before shutting down or freezing, usually because of "illegal operation.".
I also cannot load Norton System Works 2001.

i have tried:
1.making sure the video board (and my MX300 sound board) both have their own separate IRQ's
2. flashing the bios and getting updated MVP chipset drivers.
3. updating (and backdating) the Diamond drivers.*
4. .currently using Nvidia Detonator 3 drivers
5. tried to update to DirectX7, but I cannot (but that may be a separate issue)

*P.S. please explain to me also, why do the newest Diamond drivers for the Viper (4.12) DO NOT
SUPPORT DVD, when the older ones DO? But for DIRECTX7a, I have to have the NEW drivers, right??)

I've been having the same problem for over a year now! heh, finally got it to work stable in Win98SE but have since upgraded to Win2k, problems are re-appearing all over again (arghh) I have all the latest drivers/bios and now my only choice is to set AGP to 1x and turn the hardware acceleration to 'none' Geesh..that hardware upgrade is looking rather nice now..

My setup:
AMD K6-2 450MHz
Gigabyte GA-5AX Rev.4.1
Leadtek Winfast 3D S320 AGP (RivaTNT)
128MB pc100 SDram

Windows 2000 SP1
ALi Windows 2000 AGP driver V.0.20
Leadtek W2K driver (Det.6.27)

If anyone has a cure please email me.

Darren, (response 43)

I found out a way for the "Rundll error: nvclock.dll" to not appear. Only if you don't want to be able to set the clock settings for your Nvidia card, you can export and then remove the following setting from your System's registry (Windows 98)

Under the following key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]

There is the value:

"NVCLOCK"="rundll32 nvclock.dll,fnNvclock"

-I just deleted this value from this key, rebooted and then the message didn't come up.

Remember, I do not have a Nvidia card anymore so this registry hack should not affect me, but if you want the ability to software overclock your vid card, then definitly try to install the Video card's software again.

-dave

Well well well... I tired of this ALI chip 7 .... I go the same problems of all you guys yes thats correct, ali sux and the best thing I could do was turn acceleration off off everything, minimize the consumes of power in side computer putting better coolers that consumes much more and pray to that don't reboot before the 10 minutes or less... That is it! I think it is the best we can do, I think is a genetic problem of my Assus P5A with the errible Alladin V, that gives me so much problems inside the new os maybe is time to upgrade all of this :( .
To the guys that have any hope on that continues praing turn off any acceleration option includding cache options, turn off any electrical things in home at possible, and PLEASE thinking in an upgrade like me I just have to wait to have money to change this sucness mobo.

Thanks for all help from all of you :) and gud luck

like the other guy on this list said "if you have any miracle solution for the problem please contact me" :)

I'm have asus 3400 tnt videocard PCceleron433
