2/23 I'm having some trouble with a new video card. It's a Diamond Stealth
II G460; my mainboard is an ASUS P5A. Under Win98, I can't change my
display settings beyond 16color/320x240 resolution. The card is not
supported by non-Intel motherboards/chipsets. Thing is, people have
been able to get it working by playing around with the bios. I've
downloaded the latest bios. My question is this: should I flash my
bios, and if I do, what settings do I have to change? Thanks alot.

\_ Is the card AGP? You might need to add motherboard specific
drivers to be able to use the AGP port. Your 320/240/4 resolution
sounds like the windows default when you can't find a display
driver. To make my Monster Fusion work on my ASUS SS7, I had
to install Win98 with Standard VGA for my video, then install
AGP support for my motherboard, then DirectX >= 5.x, and finally
the drivers for the Monster Fusion. After all of that, it works
great. --sowings
\_ Ok, so does the "install AGP support" step involve the bios
flashing? |
