Subject: [PCBUILD] Problems with Rebuild


Asus P5AB Super 7
AMDK62 400mhz
DCS 3D Pro+ Intel 740 AGP (didn't realize I needed to order a video
adapter/graphics accelerator . . . had this one on hand in my tiny little
shop)

Hi,
        The Intel 740 chip will not work right on this motherboard.  For some
reason, it just doesn't work on Super 7.  I think VIA found a fix, but I
have heard nothing about a fix for the ALI chipset the ASUS P5AB uses.
Intel never gave a reason, and their general attitude was "We designed it
for PII, and it works fine on our chipsets, so it must be their problem".

HTH,
Donald Gaither
