I am using the Matrox Millenium G200 AGP card now which works quite well here. I just upgraded my system to a AMD K6 from my older but quite reliable 166. Nice upgrade. The K6 percolates right along. The video
I'm looking at a PC100 motherboard with a 450MHz AMD K6-2 cpu. Built in SiS video chip. Think the Matrox or ATi card (Mach 64) will do the job. Just want to help the video chip along a bit ?
Hi Richard I tried an ATI Xpert@Play (mach64) on VIA VP3 and VIA MVP3 based motherboards with AMD K6 CPUs. I had constant screen glitches with all combinations - not just on Linux but on Win95 too. Win95 also locked up frequently in many video games of a wide range of different types. The latest drivers for Win95 did nothing to alleviate the situation. As I discovered only too late, the fine print in the ATI documentation states that their cards are only supported for use with Intel CPUs and Intel motherboard chipsets.
