I have just had a deeper look into the information available on the website. I think 3D Rage II+ may be just a longer name for Rage II+, which means you should be fine, apart of-course from that DVD bit which I am still unsure about. To conclude, I would not advise you one way or the other to try it...

I have just checked the ATI site for you and cannot find the exact model description you mention. If the card was simply a Rage II+ I am sure this would work on your board - with your given description I am unable to confirm it. However going by the 4MB memory I would expect it to most likely be com...

Yep - if you consider that card a known good working card, and if you are happy with the price you can get it for, that is a good card to go for. I have used ATI Rage II+ cards myself and was happy with them. If you can confirm that the card is compatible with PCI 2.1 before you buy then that furthe...

As I understand it, your previous BIOS was OK but running 98SE. Then you went to XP with that BIOS and had the same problem as you are having now after updating the BIOS. So both the previous BIOS and the new BIOS have a problem under XP, but maybe not the actual BIOS that is the problem. If you rea...

Since you have now updated the BIOS, ran MEMTEST and detected no errors, and tried O/S installation several times, I would next suggest: 1) Reseat all cards and cables a couple of times. I would reseat the memory while you are at it just to be on the safe side. 2) Try (first a backup if required) (a...

The changes you report in your BIOS String and BIOS Sign-On Message are updated to reflect the new BIOS date and remind you that that BIOS supports up to 137GB HDD capacity per drive. Please do report back on whether you can sucessfully recognise your new HDD - if you can this BIOS could be made ava...

So the flash process always involves some risk, but assuming the flash process completes sucessfully there is a reasonably good chance the BIOS image will provide the HDD support you are after. The flash procedure should be the same as what you did when you flashed the other image, and in the event ...

Nick said You can now find a file (A-Trend ATC-6230 V1.0 bp).zip at the "untested" link in my signature. Let us know how it went... The above zip file contains the BIOS image you can try flashing to your system, but at your own risk. Note that this is an untested image - images that have not been ye...

Since the system has built-in, non-replaceable PC66 RAM, I don't think you can put in a CPU that requires PC100 or PC133, because the RAM can only adjust down from PC133 to PC100 or PC66 or from PC100 to PC66. PC66 cannot adjust up to PC100 or PC133 and PC100 cannot adjust up to PC133. I am sure the...
